If the Appraisers are unable to agree as to the fair market rate and normal and customary increases by that date which is one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the commencement of the extension term, then the Appraisers shall, within ten (10) days thereafter, mutually select a third licensed MAI appraiser (the “Arbitrator”) who has the same minimum qualifications as the Appraisers and who has not previously represented either party.

C. Time for Payment: In the event that the term of this Lease commences on a date other than the first day of a calendar month, on the date of commencement of the term hereof Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent for the period from such date of commencement to the first day of the next succeeding calendar month that proportion of the monthly rent hereunder which the number of days between such date of commencement and the first day of the next succeeding calendar month bears to thirty (30). In the event that the term of this Lease for any reason ends on a date other than the last day of a calendar month, on the first day of the last calendar month of the term hereof Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent for the period from said first day of said last calendar month to and including the last day of the term hereof that proportion of the monthly rent hereunder which the number of days between said first day of said last calendar month and the last day of the term hereof bears to thirty (30).
D. Late Charge: Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, if Tenant is in default in the payment of Base Rent or Additional Rent as set forth in this Paragraph 4, or any other amount due under this lease, or any part thereof, when due, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, as additional rent, in addition to the delinquent amount due, a late charge for each payment delinquent more than five (5) days. Said late charge shall equal five (5%) percent of the amount in default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby waives any late charge applicable to the first two instances in any calendar year during the Term of this Lease in which Tenant fails to pay rent on a timely basis as long as Tenant pays such rent within 5 business days after written notice to Tenant that the rent is past due. Such late charge is in addition to any other damages incurred by Landlord and is not a waiver of such other damages.
E. Additional Rent:
1. Additional Rent Obligations. Beginning with the Commencement Date of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord in addition to the Base Rent and as Additional Rent the following:
(a) Tenant’s Proportionate Share (as defined below) of all Taxes relating to the Complex as set forth in Paragraph 12, and | |
(b) Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all insurance premiums relating to the Complex, as set forth in Paragraph 15 and as limited by Paragraph 4E6 below, and | |
(c) Tenant’s Proportionate Share of expenses for the operation, management, maintenance and repair of the Buildings (including common areas of the Buildings) and Common Areas of the Complex as set forth in Paragraphs 7 and 11, and | |
(d) All charges, costs and expenses, which Tenant is required to pay hereunder, together with all interest and penalties, costs and expenses including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and expenses, that may be incurred in the event of Tenant’s failure to pay such amounts. In the event of nonpayment by Tenant of Additional Rent, Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies with respect thereto as Landlord has for nonpayment of rent. |
2. Estimates. Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly, in advance, Tenant’s prorata share of an amount estimated by Landlord to be Landlord’s approximate average monthly expenditure for such Additional Rent items. On or before March 31 of each year, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a reconciliation between the actual expenditures for Additional Rent items, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such items, and the estimated amounts collected from Tenant, which reconciliation, once delivered to Tenant, shall be binding upon Landlord. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the reconciliation, its Proportionate Share of the actual expenses expended by Landlord in excess of said estimated amounts, or Landlord shall refund to Tenant any amount of estimated payments made by Tenant in excess of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Landlord’s actual expenditures for said Additional Rent items. Landlord shall provide Tenant reasonably adequate supportive documentation to the reconciliation. In the event Landlord fails to provide a reconciliation on or before the March 31 following the applicable calendar year, Tenant shall deliver a written notice to Landlord requesting such reconciliation and Landlord shall have thirty (30) days from the date such notice is received to provide Tenant with a reconciliation. If the Landlord thereafter fails to provide Tenant with a reconciliation during the thirty (30) day cure period, Landlord shall not be entitled to collect any shortfall between actual expenditures and the estimated amounts collected from Tenant; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not excuse Landlord from providing the required reconciliation within the cure period set forth above. In the event Landlord fails to provide Tenant with a reconciliation by March 31 of any year and Tenant fails to deliver the notice hereinabove set forth, Landlord shall not be restricted in collecting any shortfall between actual expenditures and the estimated amounts collected from Tenant. In addition to the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant shall work together, in good faith, to enable Landlord to provide Tenant with a, a written budget supporting Landlord’s estimates of Additional Rent items to be collected from Tenant for the ensuing calendar year on or before January 15 of each year. In
Charleston Intuit Lease
Phase 1—Buildings 1-5

the event any budgets change during such year, Landlord shall provide Tenant with no less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of the change and such notice may provide that estimates attributable to periods prior to the notice be paid within thirty (30) days.
3. Survival/Review. The respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Paragraph shall survive the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease, and if the term hereof shall expire or shall otherwise terminate on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, the actual Additional Rent incurred for the calendar year in which the term hereof expires or otherwise terminates shall be determined and settled on the basis of the statement of actual Additional Rent for such calendar year and shall be prorated in the proportion which the number of days in such calendar year preceding such expiration or termination bears to 365. Tenant shall have the right to review Landlord’s books regarding the calculation of Additional Rent for the three preceding one year periods, and any such review shall take place at Landlord’s, or Landlord’s property manager’s offices (at Landlord’s election), during normal business hours upon reasonable advance written notice from Tenant.
4. Calculation of Proportionate Share of Complex. For purposes of this Lease, and except as set forth below, the term “Proportionate Share’’ means the total rentable square footage of the Premises divided by the total rentable square footage of the Complex. The total rentable square footage of the Complex shall be deemed to equal 614,976 rentable square feet regardless of the actual square footage. Consequently, as of the Commencement Date of this Lease, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Complex equals thirty-four and 76/100 percent (34.76%). Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be adjusted to account for any changes in the rentable square footage of the Premises and/or any changes in the rentable square footage of the Complex that occur following the execution of this Lease. Furthermore, as to expenses that relate to part but not all of the Complex, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, reasonably, equitably and consistently though out the Complex allocate such expenses to that portion of the Complex to which such expenses apply and, in that event, Tenant’s Proportionate Share as to such expenses shall be as reasonably and equitably determined by Landlord (and such figure shall be deemed Tenant’s “Proportionate Share” as set forth herein with respect to such expenses).
5. Property Management Fee Limitation. Landlord agrees that Tenant’s obligation to reimburse Landlord for property management fees shall be limited to two percent (2%) of the Base Rent; provided, however, during the Rent Abatement Period, Intuit shall pay a property management fee equal to two percent (2%) of the Base Rent that is being abated as though such Base Rent was not being abated.
6. Earthquake Insurance Expense Limitation. Landlord agrees that Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of earthquake insurance premiums shall be limited to the lesser of the following: (a) Tenant’s Pro Rata Share based on fifty percent (50%) of the premiums for such insurance or (b) $0.04 per square foot of the Premises per month which $0.04 figure shall be increased by three percent (3%) on each anniversary of the Commencement Date of this Lease. Further, Tenant shall not obligated to reimburse Landlord for any earthquake insurance deductibles. Any exclusions hereunder shall also be excluded from reimbursement under any other Paragraph of this Lease including, without limitation, reimbursements under Paragraph 4(E)(1)(b), above.
7. Payments. Any payments required to be made by Tenant for Additional Rent are required to be made by check or instrument separate from that check or instrument used by Tenant to make any payments for Base Rent pursuant to Paragraph 4 A and shall be due at the time Base Rent is due hereunder. With Landlord’s permission, Tenant may pay by wire transfer to such account as Landlord may designate or by a single check Additional Rent along with Base Rent and any rent due and payable under the Phase 2 Lease.
8. Taxes Xxxxxxxx. Taxes shall be billed separately and prorated for periods of occupancy and shall be due on the later of December 1st and April 1st of each calendar year, or thirty (30) days following receipt of the tax xxxx by Tenant.
9. Review of Records. Tenant shall have the right, during normal business hours and at Tenant’s own expense, to audit Landlord’s records concerning Additional Rent items. In the event a discrepancy of greater than 3% of Tenant’s correct share of costs is discovered and, as a result of the error, Tenant overpaid Additional Rent, Landlord shall pay the cost of Tenant’s out of pocket audit costs to third parties and shall immediately refund to Tenant the amount of the discrepancy. In the event a discrepancy of greater than 3% of Tenant’s correct share of costs is discovered and, as a result of the error, Tenant underpaid Additional Rent, Tenant must disclose the same to Landlord, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the additional monies due less Tenant’s out of pocket audit costs to third parties.
10. Prior Amortization. Under the Prior Leases Tenant had been reimbursing Landlord for some expenses incurred by Landlord during the term of the Prior Lease on an amortized basis, and not all of such expenses have been reimbursed by Tenant. Tenant agrees that the remaining portion of such expenses

0
that have not yet been reimbursed by Tenant shall continue to be paid by Tenant, as Additional Rent hereunder, pursuant to the same reimbursement plan as under the Prior Leases as though the Prior Leases were not terminated.
F. Place of Payment of Rent and Additional Rent: All Base Rent hereunder and all payments hereunder for Additional Rent shall be paid to Landlord and shall be delivered to the Landlord’s property manager, Xxxxxx and Company, at 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx Xxxxx, 00000, or to such other person or to such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing; provided, however, that Landlord must provide Tenant with at least thirty (30) days prior notice of any change to the person or place that Base Rent and/or Additional Rent is to be paid hereunder. All payments must actually be received by their due date.
G. Security Deposit: A security deposit shall not be required under this Lease.
5. RULES AND REGULATIONS AND COMMON AREA: Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and such Rules and Regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe, Tenant and Tenant’s employees, invitees and customers shall, in common with other occupants of the Complex in which the Premises are located, and their respective employees, invitees and customers, and others entitled to the use thereof, have the non-exclusive right to use the access roads, parking areas, and facilities as may be provided and designated by Landlord from time to time for the general use and convenience of the occupants of the Complex in which the Premises are located, which areas and facilities are referred to herein as “Common Area”. This right shall terminate upon the termination of this Lease. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to make reasonable changes in the shape, size, location, amount and extent of Common Area including elimination of portions of the common area. All such changes shall not unreasonably affect Tenant’s access or use of the Premises and shall not diminish Tenant’s parking rights. Landlord further reserves the right to promulgate such reasonable and nondiscriminatory rules and regulations relating to the use of the Common Area, and any part or parts thereof, as Landlord may deem appropriate for the best interests of the occupants of the Complex. The Rules and Regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant, and Tenant shall abide by them and cooperate in their observance. Landlord may reasonably amend such Rules and Regulations from time to time, with at least thirty (30) days advance notice to Tenant, in a non-discriminatory manner, and all amendments shall be effective no sooner than thirty (30) days after delivery of a copy to Tenant. Landlord shall enforce said Rules and Regulations against Tenant in a nondiscriminatory manner, and shall enforce said Rules and Regulations against all other tenants and occupants in the Complex whose violation of said Rules and Regulations materially and detrimentally impacts Tenant’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is a conflict between the Rules and Regulations and the terms of this Lease, the terms of this Lease shall control.
Landlord shall operate, manage and maintain the Common Area in a first class standard of maintenance and repairs and shall keep the Common Areas in good and sanitary condition.
6. PARKING: Tenant shall have the right to use with other tenants or occupants of the Complex its Proportionate Share of the non exclusive non reserved parking spaces in the common parking areas of the Complex. Tenant agrees that Tenant, Tenant’s employees, agents, representatives and/or invitees shall not use parking spaces outside of the Complex parking allocated to Tenant hereunder. Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord’s sole discretion, to specifically designate the location of Tenant’s parking spaces or any other tenant’s parking spaces within the common parking areas of the Complex, in which event Tenant agrees that Tenant, Tenant’s employees, agents, representatives and/or invitees shall not use any parking spaces other than those parking spaces specifically designated by Landlord for Tenant’s use. Said parking spaces, if specifically designated by landlord to Tenant, may be relocated by Landlord at any time, and from time to time. Landlord reserves the right, at Landlord’s sole discretion, to rescind any specific designation of parking spaces, thereby returning Tenant’s parking spaces to the common parking area. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of any change in Tenant’s parking spaces; provided, however, that in no event shall any such change materially diminish the number of parking spaces available to Tenant. Tenant shall not, at any time, park, or permit to be parked, any trucks or vehicles adjacent to the loading areas so as to interfere in any way with the use of such areas, nor shall Tenant at any time park, or permit the parking of Tenant’s trucks or other vehicles or the trucks and vehicles of Tenant’s suppliers or others, in any portion of the common area not designated by Landlord for such use by Tenant. Tenant shall not park any inoperative vehicles or equipment on any portion of the common parking area or other common areas of the Complex. Tenant agrees to assume responsibility for compliance by its employees with the parking provision contained herein. If Tenant or its employees park in other than such designated parking areas, then Landlord may charge Tenant, as an additional charge, and Tenant agrees to pay, Fifty Dollars ($50.00) per day for each day or partial day each such vehicle is parked in any area other than that designated. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord at Tenant’s sole expense to tow away from the Complex any vehicle belonging to Tenant or Tenant’s employees parked in violation of these provisions, or to attach violation notices to such vehicles. Tenant shall use the parking areas for vehicle parking only, and shall not use the parking areas for storage.

(c) alterations or improvements constructed by or on behalf of Tenant that require such alterations to be made, as opposed to alterations that trigger an unrelated code compliance upgrade (for example: if construction by Tenant of additional offices require extra structural support for such offices, the cost of such extra support shall be borne entirely by Tenant, however, if construction of additional offices triggers the requirement to install seismic retrofitting to comply with a previous years code change, which code change is not related to the additional offices, but which is the result of any new construction, then Landlord shall bear the cost of such code upgrade alterations). | |
It is acknowledged that Landlord shall only be required to make such alterations that are actually required to prevent the Premises from being in violation of such codes at such time, as opposed to making alterations to bring the Premises up to current building codes even though existing improvements do not require current alterations because such improvements are “grandfathered”. |
2. Capital Expenditures. Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the total cost of any individual capital expenditure (as defined under generally accepted accounting principals (“GAAP”)) which exceeds $20,000 which are not otherwise excluded from Tenant’s reimbursement requirements shall be amortized monthly on a straight line basis over the actual useful life of the capital expenditure (in Landlord’s reasonable and good faith estimate) (“Capital Expenditure Amount”). Landlord shall be entitled to immediately expense any individual capital expenditure the total cost of which is less than $20,000, and such capital expenditure shall not be deemed a Capital Expenditure Amount under this paragraph. The monthly amortization of any Capital Expenditure Amount shall be over such number of months of actual useful life of the improvement, as reasonably determined by Landlord, and shall include interest in the amount of 5%. The $20,000 amount, referred to above, shall be increased on each anniversary of the Commencement Date of this Lease based upon the change in the |

Phase 1—Buildings 1-5

Consumer Price Index. Such annual adjustments shall be calculated upon the basis of the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, San Francisco-Oakland Metropolitan Area, All Items (1982-84 equals 100) as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, as such Index was revised effective January, 1987 (the “Index”). The Index published for the month closest to the adjustment date shall be compared with the Index published for the month closest to the beginning of the immediately preceding Lease year to determine the percentage increase in such $20,000 (as it may have been adjusted for prior years). If the Index is discontinued or revised during the term, such other government index or computation with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would be obtained if the Index had not been discontinued or revised. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all other capital expenditures shall be reimbursed, without amortization, as set forth in Paragraph 4 E of this Lease.
B. Buildings and Premises: Notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain (i) the interior of the Premises (including appurtenances), (ii) exterior doors, loading dock doors, and door encasements, (iii) exterior windows, window frames, plate glass, and glazing, and every part thereof in a first dass standard of maintenance and repair, and in good and sanitary condition.

or contract or violation of governmental laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders or other governmental requirements.
13. Accounting, legal and other fees incurred in connection with preparation, negotiation or enforcement of leases, or any costs associated with preparing any space for occupancy, including any tenant improvement work or allowance for such space to be leased.
14. Labor costs, including salaries, fringe benefits and other costs for other than full-time on-site personnel to the extent such costs are attributable to work at a complex other than the Complex.

ACCEPTANCE AND SURRENDER OF PREMISES: Landlord represents to its knowledge without any investigation, nor the duty to investigate, and with the parties acknowledgement that the Tenant has been occupying the Premises for the past eight (8) years, that as of the Commencement Date of this Lease, Landlord is not aware of any defect in the roofs, structural components, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems, electrical and plumbing systems, parking lots and site lighting, of the Premises and/or the Complex upon which the Premises are located. Subject to Landlord’s representations and warranties contained elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant accepts the Premises as being in good and sanitary order, condition and repair and accepts the Premises in their present condition and without representation or warranty by Landlord as to the condition of the Premises or as to the use or occupancy which may be made thereof. Any exceptions to the foregoing must be by written agreement executed by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant agrees on the last day of the Lease term, or on the sooner termination of this Lease, to surrender the Premises promptly and peaceably to Landlord in good condition and repair (damage by Acts of God, fire or normal wear and tear excepted), with all interior walls repaired, if damaged, and with all alterations, additions and improvements which may have been made in, to, or on the Premises (except movable trade fixtures installed at the expense of Tenant), except as to alterations which Tenant is required to remove or restore as set forth below. Tenant, on or before the end of the term or sooner termination of this Lease, shall remove all of Tenant’s personal property and trade fixtures from the Premises, and all property not so removed on or before the end of the term or sooner termination of this Lease shall be deemed abandoned by Tenant and title to same shall thereupon pass to Landlord without compensation to Tenant. Landlord may, upon termination of this Lease, remove all moveable furniture and equipment so abandoned by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost, and repair any damage caused by such removal at Tenant’s sole cost. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as an extension of the term hereof or as consent of Landlord to any holding over by Tenant. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease or the Premises by Tenant or a mutual cancellation of this Lease shall not work as a merger and, at the option of Landlord, shall either terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or operate as an assignment to Landlord of all or any such subleases or subtenancies.
9. ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS
A. Alterations: Tenant shall not make, or suffer to be made, any alteration or addition to the Premises, or any part thereof, exceeding Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) in cost, without the written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) of Landlord first had and obtained by Tenant. Any addition to, or alteration of, the Premises, except moveable furniture and trade fixtures, shall at once become a part of the Premises and belong to Landlord. If Landlord consents to the making of any alteration, addition, or improvement to or of the Premises by Tenant, the same shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Except as otherwise expressly set forth to the contrary, any modifications to the Building or Building systems required by governmental code or otherwise as a result of Tenant’s alterations, additions or improvements shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant shall retain title to all moveable furniture and trade fixtures placed in the Premises. All heating, lighting, electrical, air conditioning, attached partitioning, drapery, carpeting and floor installations made by Tenant, together with all property that has become an integral part of the Premises, shall not be deemed trade fixtures. Tenant agrees that it will not proceed to make any alterations or additions the total cost of which exceeds Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000), without having obtained consent from Landlord to do so, and until five (5) days after written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intention to commence such work in order that Landlord may post appropriate notices to avoid any liability to contractors or material suppliers for payment for Tenant’s improvements. Tenant shall at all times permit such notices to be posted and to remain posted until the completion of work. Tenant shall, if required by Landlord,

Phase 1—Buildings 1-5
August 4, 2003—Final
9
secure at Tenant’s own cost and expense, a completion and lien indemnity bond, reasonably satisfactory to Landlord for work in excess of $300,000. Tenant further covenants and agrees that any mechanic’s liens filed against the Premises or against the Complex for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant, will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within thirty (30) days after the filing thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant. Any exceptions to the foregoing must be made in writing and executed by both Landlord and Tenant.
B. Manner of Alterations: Any alterations or additions made by Tenant to the Premises, whether or not such work requires Landlord’s approval hereunder, shall be constructed in a first class manner. Landlord shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, and upon no less than 2 business days’ prior written notice, to inspect any alterations or additions at any stage of its completion to determine whether or not such work is being constructed in compliance with approved plans. At the completion of each alteration or addition, Tenant shall deliver a complete set of as-built drawings to Landlord.
C. Cost of Alterations: Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein to the contrary, all cost of construction including demolition, architectural, drawings, permitting fees, etc, shall be paid by Tenant.
D. Restoration: At the time any alterations, additions or improvements are requested by Tenant, which request shall include a detailed description and depiction of such alterations, additions or improvements, Tenant may request that Landlord inform Tenant whether such alterations, additions or improvements must be removed and the Premises be restored to the original condition upon Lease expiration or termination. If Landlord fails to inform Tenant that it must restore the Premises at the Lease expiration, than Tenant shall have no obligation to restore the Premises at Lease expiration. If Landlord requires Tenant to so restore, such restoration shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.
1. Alterations Performed By Tenant Prior to Execution of This Lease: Landlord accepts the alterations, additions and improvements performed to date upon the Premises under the Prior Leases and Tenant shall not be required to remove such alterations, additions and improvements as they currently exist. Within fifteen (15) days of the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord all layout plans in Tenant’s possession with the understanding that Tenant does not warrant the accuracy of such plans. Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter the Premises to determine the correct condition of the Premises. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in documenting the current condition of the Premises.
E. Contractors: Tenant shall have the right to employ architects, general contractors or subcontractors of its choosing, licensed in California where required by law, for any alterations desired to be made to the Premises leased hereunder.

10. Intentionally Deleted.
11. UTlLlTlES OF THE BUILDING IN WHICH THE PREMISES ARE LOCATED:
Tenant shall pay promptly, as the same become due, all charges for separately metered water, gas, electricity, telephone, telex and other electronic communications service, sewer service, waste pick-up and any other utilities, materials or services furnished directly to or used by Tenant on or about the Premises during the term of this Lease, including, without limitation, any temporary or permanent utility surcharge or other exactions whether or not hereinafter imposed. In addition, for any Premises not separately metered, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, its pro rata share of the cost of any utility service not so separately metered, such pro rata share shall be determined by dividing the rentable square footage of the portion of the Premises included in the utility xxxx by the total rentable square footage of all rentable space included in such utility xxxx, and the pro-rata share not reimbursable by Tenant hereunder shall not be reimbursable to Landlord under the other expense reimbursement provisions of this Lease. If, however, Landlord determines that any tenant (including Tenant) is using a disproportionate amount of any utility service not separately metered, then Landlord shall charge that tenant the amount estimated by Landlord to be the disproportionate amount and such payment by such other tenant shall not be charged to the other tenants.
Landlord shall not be liable for and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of any interruption or failure of utility services to the Premises when such interruption or failure is caused by accident, breakage, repair, strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances or labor disputes of any nature, or by any other cause, similar or dissimilar, beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of rent for any interruption or failure of utility services to the Premises when such interruption or failure is caused by Landlord or its employees, agents or contractors, which abatement shall be based on the degree to which Tenant is unable to utilize the

Phase 1—Buildings 1-5
August 4, 2003—Final
10
Premises due to such interruption or failure. In addition, in the event there is any interruption in any utility service, Landlord will cooperate with Tenant in having such utility service restored as quickly as possible.
12. TAXES
A. Real Property Taxes
As Additional Rent and in accordance with Paragraph 4E of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all Real Property Taxes. The term “Real Property Taxes”, as used herein, shall mean (i) all taxes, assessments, levies and other charges of any kind or nature whatsoever, general and special, foreseen and unforeseen (including all installments of principal and interest required to pay any general or special assessments for public improvements and any increases resulting from reassessments caused by any change in ownership of the Complex) now or hereafter imposed during the Term of Lease by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority or special district having the direct or indirect power to tax or levy assessments, which are levied or assessed against, or with respect to the value, occupancy or use of, all or any portion of the Complex (as now constructed or as may at any time hereafter be constructed, altered, or otherwise changed) or Landlord’s interest therein; any improvements located within the Complex (regardless of ownership); the fixtures, equipment and other property of Landlord, real or personal, that are an integral part of and located in the Complex; or parking areas, public utilities, or energy within the Complex; (ii) all charges, levies or fees imposed by reason of environmental regulation or other governmental control of the Complex; and (iii) all costs and fees (including attorney’s fees) incurred by Landlord in contesting any Real Property Tax and in negotiating with public authorities as to any Real Property Tax. In the event said contesting results in a refund or Real Property Taxes, Tenant shall be credited with the appropriate Proportionate Share of said refund reflecting Tenant’s period of occupancy. If at any time during the term of this Lease the taxation or assessment of the Complex prevailing as of the Commencement Date of this Lease shall be altered so that in lieu of or in addition to any Real Property Tax described above there shall be levied, assessed or imposed (whether by reason of a change in the method of taxation or assessment, creation of a new tax or charge, or any other cause) an alternate or additional tax or charge (i) on the value, use or occupancy of the Complex or Landlord’s interest therein or (ii) on or measured by the gross receipts, gross income or gross rentals from the Complex, on Landlord’s business of leasing the Complex, or computed in any manner with respect to the operation of the Complex, then any such tax or charge, however designated, shall be included within the meaning of the term “Real Property Taxes” for purposes of this Lease. If any Real Property Tax is based upon property or rents unrelated to the Complex, then only that part of such Real Property Tax that is fairly allocable to the Complex shall be included within the meaning of the term “Real Property Taxes”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Real Property Taxes” shall not include estate, inheritance, gift or franchise taxes of Landlord or the federal, state or local net income tax, capital gains taxes, excess profits, capital stock taxes or other taxes not uniquely attributable to the Buildings or the Complex, imposed on Landlord or any of its shareholders, partners, members, beneficiaries or other owners of a beneficial interest in Landlord, nor shall it include any penalties, interest, fines or other similar charges. In addition, “Real Property Taxes” shall not include any increases resulting from any new construction, unless such new construction is by or on behalf of Tenant; development fees and increased taxes (in lieu of development fees) pursuant to any development agreement or similar arrangement; any documentary transfer tax, corporation, limited liability company or other entity gross receipts tax, sales or use tax; or any portion of any tax or assessment not properly and equitably allocable to the period in question (and if Landlord elects to pay any bond or assessment over less than the longest time permissible by law, the portion of such payment included in Real Estate Taxes for any period shall not exceed the amount that would have been payable for the period had Landlord instead paid over the longest period permissible by law). In no event shall any portion of any tax or assessment properly allocable to any period of time beyond the term of this Lease be included in Real Estate Taxes.
B. Taxes on Tenant’s Property
1. Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay before delinquency, taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant’s personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and if Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, pays the taxes based on such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand, as the case may be, repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord, or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment; provided that in any such event Tenant shall have the right, in the name of Landlord and with Landlord’s full cooperation, to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover the amount of any such taxes so paid under protest, and any amount so recovered shall belong to Tenant.
2. If any tenant improvements in the Premises, whether installed, and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed
Charleston Intuit Lease
Phase 1—Buildings 1-5
August 4, 2003—Final
11
for Real Property Tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which standard office improvements in other space in the Complex are assessed, then the Real Property Taxes and assessments levied against Landlord or the Complex by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions of 12A(i), above. If the records of the County Assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining whether said Tenant improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than standard office improvements in other space in the Complex, such records shall be binding on both the Landlord and the Tenant. If the records of the County Assessor are not available or sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for making said determination, the actual cost of construction shall be used.
13. TENANTS LIABILITY INSURANCE: Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, agrees to keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy of commercial general liability insurance with a combined single limit in the amount of $5,000,000/5,000,000 per occurrence/aggregate. The policy or policies affecting such insurance, certificates of which shall be furnished to Landlord, shall name Landlord as additional insured, and shall insure any liability of Landlord, contingent or otherwise, as respects acts or omissions of Tenant, its agents, employees or invitees or otherwise by any negligent conduct of any of said persons in or about or concerning the Premises; shall be issued by an insurance company admitted to transact business in the State of California; and shall provide that the insurance effected thereby shall not be canceled, except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Landlord; and shall have commercially reasonable deductibles similar to those typically held by companies of similar size and characteristics of Tenant. If, during the term of this Lease, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord’s Lender, insurance advisor or counsel, the amount of insurance described in this Paragraph is not adequate, Tenant agrees to increase said coverage to such reasonable amount as Landlord’s Lender, insurance advisor or counsel shall deem adequate. All insurance required pursuant to this Paragraph to be carried by Tenant shall be (i) primary and noncontributory with any Landlord insurance (ii) shall provide severability of interests between or among insureds (iii) shall be issued by insurers licensed to do business in the State in which the Premises are located, and (iv) shall be issued by insurers which are rated A:VII or better by Best’s Key Rating Guide. All insurance required hereunder may be held by Tenant under blanket policies of insurance.
14. TENANT’S PERSONAL PROPERTY INSURANCE AND WORKER’S COMPENSATION INSURANCE: Tenant shall maintain a special form property policy (“Special Form”) with a sprinkler leakage endorsement insuring the personal property, inventory, trade fixtures and leasehold improvements within the leased Premises for the full replacement value thereof. The proceeds from any of such policies shall be used for the repair or replacement of such items so insured. Tenant shall also maintain such policy or policies of worker’s compensation insurance and such other employee benefit insurance sufficient to comply with all laws.
15. PROPERTY INSURANCE: Landlord shall purchase and keep in force and, as Additional Rent in accordance with Paragraph 4E of this Lease, and subject to such limitations on reimbursement obligations as may be provided elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the cost of a policy or policies of insurance covering loss or damage to the Premises and Complex in an amount up to the full replacement value thereof, providing protection against those perils included within the classification of “Special Form” insurance and flood and/or earthquake insurance, if available, plus a policy of rental income insurance in the amount of one hundred (100%) percent of twelve (12) months Base Rent and Additional Rent, and also a policy of comprehensive public liability insurance with minimum limits in the amount of at least $1,000,000/1,000,000 for injuries to or death of persons occurring in, on or about the Premises or the Complex. If such insurance cost is increased due to Tenant’s use of the Premises or the Complex, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the full cost of such increase. Tenant shall have no interest in nor any right to the proceeds of any insurance procured by Landlord for the Complex.
Landlord and Tenant do each hereby respectively release the other, to the extent of insurance proceeds actually received, from any liability for loss or damage caused by fire or any of the other coverage events included in the releasing party’s insurance policies, irrespective of the cause of such fire or casualty; provided, however, that if the insurance policy of either releasing party prohibits such waiver, then this waiver shall not take effect until consent to such waiver is obtained. If such waiver is so prohibited, the insured party affected shall promptly notify the other party thereof.
16. INDEMNIFICATION: Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord, and all of Landlord’s partners, managers, employees, and agents, for any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of property in or about the Premises or the Complex by or from any cause whatsoever, including, without limitation, gas, fire, oil, electricity or leakage of any character from the roof, walls, basement or other portion of the Premises or the Complex but excluding, however, the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors, and except and excluding claims resulting from the breach by Landlord of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Lease. Except to the extent injury to persons or damage to property is the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any of its agents, employees or contractors, and except and excluding claims resulting from the
Charleston Intuit Lease
Phase 1—Buildings 1-5
August 4, 2003—Final
12
breach by Landlord of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall hold Landlord, and Landlord’s partners, managers, employees, and agents, harmless from and defend Landlord, and any of Landlord’s partners, managers, employees, and agents, against any and all expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, in connection therewith, arising out of (a) any injury to or death of any person, or damage to or destruction of property, occurring in, on or about the Premises, or any part thereof, from any cause, or by any person or entity, whatsoever, (b) Tenant’s breach of this Lease, (c) Tenant or Tenant’s agents, employees, contractors, guests and/or invitees negligence or intentional wrongdoing, (d) Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises in violation of the terms of this Lease (including damages as a result of claims made by any succeeding tenant or lost profits as a result thereof).
17. COMPLIANCE: Except as set forth in Xxxxxxxxx 0X0, Xxxxxx, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly comply with all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental rules, regulations or requirements now or hereafter in effect; with the requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter constituted; and with any direction or occupancy certificate issued pursuant to law by any public officer. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any action against Tenant, whether Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has violated any such law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule, regulation, requirement, direction or provision, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with any and all requirements pertaining to said Premises, of any insurance organization or company, necessary for the maintenance of reasonable fire and public liability insurance covering the Premises.
18. LIENS: Tenant shall keep the Premises and the Complex free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligation incurred by Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within thirty (30) days following the imposition of such lien, cause the same to be released of record, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, and upon no less than 5 business days’ prior written notice to Tenant, the right, but no obligation, to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All sums paid by Landlord for such purpose, and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith, shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant on demand with interest at the prime rate of interest as quoted by the Bank of America.
19. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING: The following provisions shall apply to any assignment, subletting or other transfer by Tenant or any subtenant or assignee or other successor in interest of the original Tenant (collectively referred to in this Paragraph as “Tenant”):
A. Except for Permitted Assignments as provided below, Tenant shall not do any of the following (collectively referred to herein as “Transfer”), whether voluntarily, involuntarily, or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed: (i) assign or otherwise transfer its interest in this Lease or in the Premises; (ii) sublet all or any part of the Premises or allow it to be sublet, occupied, or used by any person or entity other than Tenant; (iii) transfer any right appurtenant to this Lease or the Premises; or (iv) mortgage or encumber the Lease (or otherwise use the Lease as a security device) in any manner. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all reasonable costs and attorney’s fees incurred by Landlord in connection with the processing and/or documentation of any requested Transfer, whether or not Landlord’s consent is granted. Any Transfer so approved by Landlord shall not be effective until Tenant has paid all such costs and attorneys’ fees to Landlord and delivered to Landlord an executed counterpart of the document evidencing the Transfer which (i) is in form approved by Landlord, (ii) contains the same terms and conditions as stated in Tenant’s notice given to Landlord pursuant to subparagraph 6, below, and (iii) with respect to an assignment, contains the agreement of the proposed Transferee to assume all obligations of Tenant under this Lease. Any attempted Transfer without Landlord’s consent shall constitute a default by Tenant and shall be voidable at Landlord’s option. Landlord’s consent to any one Transfer shall not constitute a waiver of the provisions of this Paragraph as to any subsequent transfer nor consent to any subsequent Transfer. No Transfer, even with the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its personal and primary obligation to pay the rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease nor to be consent to any Transfer.
B. Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) business days prior written notice of any desired Transfer to a sublessee and at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any desired Transfer to an assignee, and such notice with respect to either a sublease or an assignment shall contain all of the proposed terms of such Transfer including but not limited to (i) the name and legal composition of the proposed Transferee; (ii) an audited financial statement, if available, or an un-audited financial statement if an audited statement is not available, of the Transferee for a period ending not more than one year prior to the proposed effective date of the Transfer; (iii) the nature of the proposed Transferee’s business to be carried on in the Premises; (iv) all consideration to be given on account of the Transfer; and (v) such other information as may be reasonably requested by Landlord within such ten (10) day period. Tenant’s notice shall not be deemed to

Phase 1—Buildings 1-5
August 4, 2003—Final
13
have been served or given until such time as Tenant has provided Landlord with all information required by subparagraphs (i) through (iv) of this subparagraph.
C. In the event that Tenant seeks to make any Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to reasonably withhold its consent to such Transfer, as permitted pursuant to this Paragraph, or to exercise any of the rights set forth in this subparagraph, by giving Tenant written notice of its election within ten (10) business days after receipt of Tenant’s notice of intent to Transfer to a sublessee, and within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice of intent to Transfer to an assignee. In the event Landlord fails to provide Tenant with notice that it is withholding its consent to the proposed Transfer within such ten (10) business day period for a Transfer to a sublessee or such thirty (30) day period for a Transfer to an assignee, then Landlord shall be deemed to have rejected the proposed Transfer. Without otherwise limiting the criteria upon which Landlord may withhold its consent to any proposed Transfer, if Landlord withholds its consent where the proposed assignee’s or subtenant’s anticipated use of the Premises involves the storage, use or disposal of Hazardous Material in amounts not typically used in an office environment, such withholding of consent shall be presumptively reasonable.
In addition to Landlord’s right to withhold its consent to any Transfer and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any other right or remedy, which Landlord may have, Landlord may elect to permit Tenant to so assign the Lease or sublease such part of the Premises, in which event Tenant may do so, but without being released of its liability for the performance of all of its obligations under the Lease. If Tenant assigns its interest in this Lease in accordance with this subparagraph, then, after Tenant deducts its reasonable costs of such assignment, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all consideration received by Tenant on account of the Premises over and above Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Tenant shall not, however, be required to pay to Landlord any consideration it receives for and which is equal to the fair market value for any furnishings, fixtures or other items of personal property Tenant receives in connection with the assignment or subletting, or for any services to be provided by Tenant in connection with the assignment or subletting (“Unrelated Consideration”). If Tenant sublets all or part of the Premises, after Tenant deducts its reasonable costs of such subleasing, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the positive difference, if any, between (i) all rent and other consideration (other than Unrelated Consideration) paid by the subtenant to Tenant on account of the Premises, less (ii) all rent paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease which is allocable to the area so sublet. Such amount shall be paid to Landlord on the same basis, whether periodic or in lump sum, that such rent and other consideration (other than Unrelated Consideration) is paid to Tenant by its subtenant; provided, however, should Tenant, as assignor or sublessor, be paid a lump sum fee by any assignee or sublessor which is not designated as prepaid rent and which is not Unrelated Consideration, Landlord shall be paid fifty percent (50%) of the positive difference, if any, between (i) such lump sum fee, less (ii) all rent paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease for the month in which such lump sum fee was paid, less (iii) any costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the assignment or subletting. If any lump sum is designated as prepaid rent, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the excess of the lump sum amount over the amount of rent Tenant is required to pay hereunder for the period over which the prepaid rent relates. Tenant’s obligations under this subparagraph shall survive any assignment or sublease, and Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this subparagraph shall be a default under this Lease. At the time Tenant makes any payment to Landlord required by this subparagraph, Tenant shall deliver an itemized statement of the method by which the amount to which Landlord is entitled was calculated. Landlord shall have the right to inspect Tenant’s books and records relating to the payments due pursuant to this subparagraph. Upon request therefore, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all bills, invoices, or other documents upon which its calculations are based. Landlord may condition its approval of a Transfer upon obtaining a certification from both Tenant and the proposed Transferee of all amounts that are to be paid to Tenant in connection with such Transfer. As used herein, the term “consideration” shall mean any consideration of any kind received, or to be received, by Tenant as a result of the Transfer, if such sums are related to Tenant’s interest in this Lease or in the Premises.
D. Tenant irrevocably assigns to Landlord, as security for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, all rent or other consideration not otherwise payable to Landlord by reason of any Transfer. Landlord, as assignee of Tenant, or a receiver for Tenant appointed on Landlord’s application, may collect such rent or other consideration and apply it toward Tenant’s obligation under this Lease, provided, however, that until occurrence of any default by Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to collect such rent or other consideration.
E. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if immediately after the Transfer, Tenant is not conducting business from at least 200,000 rentable square feet of the Total Premises, then Landlord shall have the right, to be exercised by giving written notice to Tenant (within 20 days of Landlords’ receipt of the transfer notice referred to in Paragraph 19B above), to recapture the space which is the subject of the transfer (“Subject Space”). If such recapture notice is given, it shall serve to terminate this Lease only with respect to the Subject Space, or, if the proposed Subject Space covers all the Premises, it shall serve to terminate this entire Lease; in either case, as of the proposed effective date of the transfer or upon Landlord’s recapture

notice, whichever is later. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to the foregoing provision with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent shall be adjusted on the basis of the proportion of rentable square feet retained by Tenant to the rentable square feet demised immediately prior to the transfer and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect.
F. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the prior consent of Landlord, Tenant shall have the right: (i) to assign this Lease or sublet the Premises to any affiliate or subsidiary of Tenant which affiliate or subsidiary is more than fifty percent (50%) owned, either directly or indirectly, by Tenant; or (ii) to merge with another corporation or entity so long as substantially all of the assets of Tenant are transferred and retained by the surviving corporation or entity excluding, however, any assets which may be required to be disposed of in order to make the transaction qualify under applicable antitrust laws, regulations or regulatory review; or (iii) to enter into an acquisition of another corporation; or (iv) have substantially all of its assets acquired by another corporation which other corporation assumes the obligations of this Lease (each, a “Permitted Assignment”), in each case provided that (a) Landlord is promptly provided with notice thereof following the effective date of such Permitted Assignment, (b) Tenant remains fully liable for the full performance of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease to the extent Tenant survives following such Permitted Assignment, and (c) in the case of an assignment, the successor assumes in writing all obligations under this Lease and in the case of a sublease, the sublessee assumes, in writing, all obligations under this Lease applicable to the sublease premises. Any assignee or sublessee under a Permitted Assignment is herein referred to as a “Permitted Assignee”.
20. ENTRY BY LANDLORD: Landlord reserves, and shall during normal business hours have, the right, upon no less than 2 business days’ prior written notice to Tenant, to enter the Premises to inspect them; to perform any services to be provided by Landlord hereunder; to submit the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagers or tenants; to place “For Sale” signs (at any time) or “For Lease” signs (during the last twelve months of the term, or during the period of any default); to post notices of nonresponsibility; and to alter, improve or repair the Premises and any portion of the Complex, all without abatement of rent; and may erect scaffolding and other necessary structures in or through the Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed; provided, however, that the business of Tenant shall be interfered with to the least extent that is reasonably practical. For each of the foregoing purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises, and any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means, or otherwise, shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into or a detainer of the Premises or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to provide Landlord with keys to unlock interior office doors, or to unlock interior areas containing safes, computer servers, or sensitive, proprietary or confidential information of Tenant. Landlord shall also have the right at any time to change the arrangement or location of public parts of the Complex and to change the name, number or designation by which the Complex is commonly known, and none of the foregoing shall be deemed an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, or shall entitle Tenant to any reduction of rent hereunder and no such changes shall unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use of or access to the Premises leased hereunder.
21. DEFAULT/ REMEDIES
A. Default: The following events shall constitute a default under this Lease:
1. The commencement of a bankruptcy action or liquidation action or reorganization action or insolvency action or an assignment of or by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or any similar action undertaken by Tenant, or the insolvency of Tenant, shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant. | |
2. The failure to pay any monetary amount due under this Lease within ten (10) days after written notice to Tenant from Landlord that such amount is past due. It is expressly agreed that such ten (10) day notice of Landlord may be in the form of notice pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, or any successor statute, providing ten (10) days to cure and if Tenant fails to so cure no further such notice shall be required of Landlord to commence an unlawful detainer proceeding. | |
3. The failure to perform or honor any other covenant, condition or representation made under this Lease, except for the events set forth above in Paragraphs 21A1 and 21A2 above, shall constitute a default hereunder by Tenant should Tenant not cure such failure within ten (10) days from the date of written notice from Landlord within which to cure. If such cure is not possible within such ten (10) day period notwithstanding commercially reasonable efforts by Tenant, Tenant shall not be in default if Tenant commences to cure within such ten (10) day period and diligently pursues the cure without delay. It is expressly agreed that such ten (10) day notice of Landlord may be in the form of notice pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure |
Charleston Intuit Lease
Phase 1—Buildings 1-5
August 4, 2003—Final
15
Section 1161, or any successor statute, providing ten (10) days to cure and if Tenant fails to so cure no further such notice shall be required of Landlord to commence an unlawful detainer proceeding.
B. Remedies: Upon a default of this Lease by Tenant, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity:
1. The rights and remedies provided for by California Civil Code Section 1951.2, including but not limited to, recovery of the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of rental loss for the same period that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, as computed pursuant to subsection (b) of said Section 1951.2; and | |
2. The rights and remedies provided by California Civil Code 1951.4 which allows Landlord to continue the Lease in effect and to enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover rent as it becomes due, for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant’s right to possession. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver upon Landlord’s initiative to protect its interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession; and | |
3. The right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant in accordance with applicable law; and | |
4. The right and power to enter the Premises and remove therefrom all persons and property, to store such property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant and to sell such property and apply such proceeds therefrom pursuant to applicable California law. Landlord may from time to time sublet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may extend beyond the term of this Lease) and at such rent and such other terms as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. Upon each subletting, (i) Tenant shall be immediately liable to pay Landlord, in addition to indebtedness other than rent due hereunder, the cost of such subletting, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees, and any real estate commissions actually paid, and the cost of such alterations and repairs incurred by Landlord and the amount, if any, by which the rent hereunder for the period of such subletting (to the extent such period does not exceed the term hereof) exceeds the amount to be paid as rent for the Premises for such period or (ii) at the option of Landlord, rents received from such subletting shall be applied first to payment of indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs of such subletting and of such alterations and repairs; third to payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same becomes due hereunder. If Tenant has been credited with any rent to be received by such subletting under option (i) and such rent shall not be promptly paid to Landlord by the subtenant(s), or if such rentals received from such subletting under option (ii) during any month be less than that to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. No taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any such subletting without termination, Landlord may at any time hereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach; and | |
5. The right to have a receiver appointed for Tenant upon application by Landlord, to take possession of the Premises and to apply any rental collected from the Premises and to exercise all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord pursuant to subparagraph (4) above; and | |
6. The right to any other amount to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course would be likely to result therefrom, including without limitation (i) any costs expenses incurred by Landlord (in retaking possession of the Premises; (ii) in maintaining, repairing, preserving, restoring, replacing, cleaning the Premises or any portion thereof, including such acts for reletting to a new lessee or lessees; (iii) for leasing commissions; (iv) any fines, costs, penalties and/or interest incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s late payment; or (v) for any other costs necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises; and | |
7. The right to all reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of Default, and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedy. |
C. Cumulative Remedies: The remedies herein provided are not exclusive and Landlord shall have any and all other remedies provided herein or by law or in equity.
D. No Possession: No act or conduct of Landlord, whether consisting of the acceptance of the keys to the Premises, or otherwise, shall be deemed to be or constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the
Charleston Intuit Lease
Phase 1—Buildings 1-5
August 4, 2003—Final
16
Premises by Tenant prior to the expiration of the Term, and such acceptance by Landlord of surrender by Tenant shall only flow from and must be evidenced by a written acknowledgment of acceptance of surrender signed by Landlord. The surrender of this Lease by Tenant, voluntarily or otherwise, shall not work a merger unless Landlord elects in writing that such merger take place, but shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of any and all existing subleases, or Landlord may, at its option, elect in writing to treat such surrender as a merger terminating Tenant’s estate under this Lease, and thereupon Landlord may terminate any or all such subleases by notifying the sublessee of its election so to do within five (5) days after such surrender.
E. Cross-Default: As a material part of the consideration for the execution of this Lease by Landlord and Tenant, it is agreed between Landlord and Tenant, that a default by Tenant or by Landlord under the Phase 2 Lease (as defined in the Paragraph entitled “Default” in the Phase 2 Lease) or under this Lease shall be considered to be a default under the Phase 2 Lease as well as this Lease. In the event of a default by Tenant or Landlord under the Phase 2 Lease, or this Lease, Landlord or Tenant may pursue the remedies permitted by law or pursuant to the terms of the Phase 2 Lease and this Lease, as if Tenant or Landlord had defaulted under any one or both of such leases.
22. [Intentionally Deleted]
23. DESTRUCTION: In the event the Premises are damaged or destroyed in whole or in part from any cause, or in the event any utility service servicing the Premises becomes completely inoperable, Landlord shall, within fifteen (15) business days of the event of such damage, destruction or cessation of service, notify Tenant in writing as to the approximate length of time necessary for Landlord to reconstruct the Premises to substantially its former condition or to have such utility services restored. If such estimate exceeds one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of damage, destruction or cessation of service, either party shall have the option, within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s notice, to terminate this Lease as to only the Building as to which the damage or cessation has occurred or, if, as a result of such damage, destruction or cessation of service, Tenant is only able to occupy four (4) Buildings under both this Lease and the Phase 2 Lease, then in that event, Tenant may terminate this Lease in its entirety as well as the Phase 2 Lease in it’s entirety. In addition, if the reconstruction of the Premises or restoration of the utility service exceeds Landlord’s estimate, as set forth in Landlord’s notice, Tenant shall, once it becomes clear that such estimate will be exceeded until such time as the reconstruction or restoration is complete, have the right to terminate this Lease as to the Building as to which the damage or cessation has occurred or, if, as a result of such damage, destruction or cessation of service, Tenant is only able to occupy four (4) Buildings under both this Lease and the Phase 2 Lease, Tenant may terminate this Lease in its entirety as well as the Phase 2 Lease Lease in it’s entirety. If such a termination occurs, the obligations under this Lease shall be equitably revised based on the square footage of the Premises terminated in relation to the total square footage of the Premises prior to termination. If neither party elects to terminate, or if neither party is entitled to terminate under this Paragraph, Landlord shall promptly, at its sole expense, rebuild or restore the Premises or the utilities to substantially the condition existing prior to the date of damage, destruction or cessation of service. Tenant shall be entitled to a reduction in rent while such repair is being made in the proportion that the area of the Premises is rendered unusable bears to the total square footage of the Premises. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord’s obligation to rebuild or restore shall be limited to the building, interior improvements and utilities as they existed as of the Commencement Date of the Lease, but shall not include (a) restoration of Tenant’s trade fixtures, equipment, merchandise or any improvements, alterations or additions made by Tenant to the Premises, or (b) any damage caused by the act or breach of this Lease by Tenant, which damage Tenant shall forthwith replace or fully repair at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Unless a termination occurs pursuant to the foregoing provisions, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the entirety of the Premises. Tenant hereby expressly waives the provisions of section 1932, Subdivision 2, and section 1933, Subdivision 4 of the California Civil Code.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, in the event the damage or destruction of the Premises (i) occurs during the last two years of the term (unless any applicable extension option has been exercised) and (ii) has rendered at least 50% of the Premises unusable by Tenant, Landlord shall have the option during the aforementioned fifteen (15) business day period to elect not to rebuild the Premises by so notifying Tenant, in which case Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease and/or the Phase 2 Lease by so notifying Landlord.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Landlord elects not to rebuild or restore the Premises or any Building constituting a portion of the Premises, and notifies Tenant that Landlord desires to terminate the Lease as to that Building, Tenant may, by providing written notice to Landlord within 30 days of the date it receives notice of Landlord’s intent to terminate, elect to rebuild one or more of the Buildings which were so damaged. In the event Tenant makes the election set forth herein, then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and any insurance proceeds for the damage being repaired by Tenant shall be assigned to and paid over to Tenant to the extent Tenant pays the same for such restoration. Tenant shall then immediately

Phase 1—Buildings 1-5

17
commence, at its sole cost and expense, restoring such Buildings to the condition they were in prior to the date of such destruction.
24. EMINENT DOMAIN: If all or any part of the Premises shall be taken by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate as to any portion of the Premises so taken or conveyed on the date when title vests in the condemnor, and Landlord shall be entitled to any and all payment, income, rent, award or any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with such taking or conveyance, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or otherwise for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing Paragraph, any compensation specifically awarded Tenant for Tenant’s personal property, relocation costs, business damage or business interruption, specifically excluding, however, the so called “bonus value” of this Lease, shall be and remain the property of Tenant (it being specifically acknowledged that Tenant shall not be entitled to any so called “bonus value” of the Lease).
In the event of a partial taking or conveyance of the Premises, if the portion of the Premises taken or conveyed is so substantial that the Tenant can no longer reasonably conduct its business from the remaining Premises, Tenant shall have the privilege of terminating this Lease. In addition, if the portion of the Premises which is taken that is contained in any Building renders that portion of the Premises unusable to Tenant, Tenant may terminate this Lease only as to the Building as to which the taking has occurred. Any termination hereunder must occur within sixty (60) days from the date of such taking or conveyance, upon written notice to Landlord of its intention so to do, and upon giving of such notice this Lease shall terminate on the last day of the calendar month next following the month in which such notice is given or upon the effective date of the taking, at Tenant’s election, upon payment by Tenant of the rent through the date of termination.
If a portion of the Premises be taken by condemnation or conveyance in lieu thereof and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall terminate this Lease as provided herein, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as to the part of the Premises not so taken or conveyed, and the rent herein shall be apportioned as of the date of such taking or conveyance so that thereafter the rent to be paid by Tenant shall be in the ratio that the area of the portion of the Premises not so taken or conveyed bears to the total area of the Premises prior to such taking.
25. SALE OR CONVEYANCE BY LANDLORD: In the event of a sale or conveyance of the Complex or any interest therein by Landlord, Landlord shall thereby be released from any liability relating to events occurring after the date of such sale or conveyance, and from any terms, covenants or conditions (express or implied) to be performed after the date of such sale or conveyance in favor of Tenant, and in such event, with respect to such items, Tenant agrees to look solely to the successor in interest of such transferor in and to the Complex and this Lease. This lease shall not be affected by any such sale or conveyance, and Tenant agrees to attorn to the successor in interest of such transferor.
26. SUBORDINATION; ATTORNMENT; NON-DISTURBANCE.
A. Subordination. Subject to the provisions of subparagraph (C), below, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or other hypothecation or mortgage (collectively, “Mortgage”) now or hereafter placed by Landlord upon the real property of which the Premises are a part, to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and extensions thereof. Tenant agrees that any person holding any Mortgage shall have no duty, liability, or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Landlord under this Lease. In the event of Landlord’s default with respect to any such obligation, Tenant will give any Lender, whose name and address have previously been furnished in writing to Tenant, notice of a default by Landlord; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be liable to any Lender for failure to provide the notice provided for herein. Tenant may not exercise any remedies for default by Landlord unless and until Landlord and the Lender shall have received written notice of such default and 30 days shall thereafter have elapsed without the default having been cured. If any Lender shall elect to have this Lease superior to the lien of its Mortgage and shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such Mortgage. | |
B. Attornment. Subject to the nondisturbance provisions of subparagraph C of this Paragraph, Tenant agrees to attorn to a Lender or any other party who acquires ownership of the Premises by reason of a foreclosure of a Mortgage. In the event of such foreclosure, such new owner shall not: (i) be liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord or with respect to events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership, (ii) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior Landlord, or (iii) be liable for security deposits, unless same has been transferred to the acquiring party, or be bound by prepayment of more than one month’s rent. Landlord represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, there are no Mortgages encumbering the Complex. | |
C. Ground Lease/Non-Disturbance. Landlord hereby represents to Tenant that a |

Phase 1—Buildings 1-5

18
portion of the Complex is subject to a long-term ground lease. Landlord further represents to Tenant this Lease does not violate any of the terms and conditions of the ground lease. Landlord represents, warrants and covenants to Tenant that Landlord shall not, at any time during the Lease term, or any extension thereof, allow any default of the Ground Lease to continue that will cause the Ground Lease to terminate. Landlord represents that there are no existing Mortgage encumbering any portion of the Complex. With respect to a Mortgage entered into by Landlord after the execution of this Lease, Tenant’s subordination of this Lease shall be subject to receiving assurance (a “nondisturbance agreement”) from the Mortgage holder in a commercially standard form that Tenant’s possession and this Lease will not be disturbed so long as Tenant is not in default and attorns to the record owner of the Premises, and the subordination provided for under subparagraph (A), above, is expressly conditioned upon Tenant receiving a nondisturbance agreement. In addition, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the ground lessor a non-disturbance and recognition agreement in a commercially standard form. |
D. Self-Executing. The agreements contained in this Paragraph shall be effective without the execution of any further documents; provided, however, that upon written request from Landlord or a Lender in connection with a sale, financing, or refinancing of Premises, Tenant and Landlord shall execute such further writings as may be reasonably required to separately document any such subordination or nonsubordination, attornment, and/or nondisturbance agreement, as is provided for herein. |
27. HOLDING OVER: Tenant has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If Tenant holds over with the consent of Landlord: (a) the Base Rent payable shall be increased to 150% of the Base Rent applicable during the month immediately preceding such expiration or earlier termination; (b) Tenant’s right to possession shall be on a month to month basis, terminable on 30 days notice from either party; and (c) all other terms and conditions of this Lease shall continue to apply. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant.
28. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE:
A. Tenant shall at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice from Landlord execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing (a) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, (b) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder, or specifying such defaults, if any, are claimed, and (c) setting forth such other matters as Landlord may reasonably request. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modifications except as may be represented by Landlord; that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance, that not more than one month’s rent has been paid in advance, and that any other matters set forth in Landlord’s request are true and correct. | |
B. Landlord shall at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice from Tenant, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Tenant a statement in writing (a) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, (b) acknowledging that there are not, to Landlord’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Tenant hereunder, or specifying such defaults, if any, are claimed, and (c) setting forth such other matters as Tenant may reasonably request. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective transferees of the Lease or subtenants of the Premises, or by any prospective purchaser of Tenant or of substantially all of the assets of Tenant. |
29. CONSTRUCTION CHANGES: Landlord does not guarantee the accuracy of any drawings supplied to Tenant and verification of the accuracy of such drawings rests with Tenant.
30. RIGHT TO PERFORM:
A. All terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed or observed by Tenant shall be performed or observed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any reduction of rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, or other rent, required to be paid by it hereunder or shall fail to commence to perform any other term or covenant hereunder on its part to be performed after expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods, Landlord, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligation of Tenant hereunder, may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such other term or covenant on Tenant’s part to be performed. All reasonable sums so paid by Landlord and all reasonably |

19
necessary costs of such performance by Landlord together with interest thereon at the rate of the prime rate of interest per annum as quoted by the Bank of America from the date of such payment of performance by Landlord, shall be paid (and Tenant covenants to make such payment) to Landlord on demand by Landlord, and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of non-payment by Tenant as in the case of failure by Tenant in the payment of rent hereunder.

All reasonable sums so paid by Tenant and all reasonably necessary costs of such performance by Tenant together with interest thereon at the rate of the prime rate of interest per annum as quoted by the Bank of America from the date of such payment of performance by Tenant, shall be paid (and Landlord covenants to make such payment) to Tenant on demand by Tenant. |
31. ATTORNEYS’ FEES:
A. In the event that Landlord should bring suit for the possession of the Premises, for the recovery of any sum due under this Lease, or because of the breach of any provision of this Lease, or for any other relief against Tenant hereunder, or in the event that Tenant should bring suit against Landlord for the recovery of any sums due hereunder or because of the breach of any provision of this Lease or for any other relief against Landlord hereunder, then all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the prevailing party therein shall be paid by the other party, which obligation on the part of the other party shall be deemed to have accrued on the date of the commencement of such action.
32. WAIVER: The waiver by either party of the other party’s failure to perform or observe any term, covenant or condition herein contained to be performed or observed by such waiving party shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or of any subsequent failure of the party failing to perform or observe the same or any other such term, covenant or condition therein contained, and no custom or practice which may develop between the parties hereto during the term hereof shall be deemed a waiver of, or in any way affect, the right of either party to insist upon performance and observance by the other party in strict accordance with the terms hereof.
33. NOTICES: Except as provided in any applicable unlawful detainer statutes, in which case Landlord may either elect that this notice provision shall not apply, or to serve such notices solely in accordance with this provision in which case the unlawful detainer statutes notice provision shall not apply; all notices, demands, requests, advices or designations which may be or are required to be given by either party to the other hereunder shall be in writing.

Hazardous Materials which are present as a result of Tenant or Tenant’s guests, invitees, contractors or agents use, storage, discharge, release or disposition to the full extent required by law. The termination of this Lease shall not terminate or reduce the liability or obligations of Tenant under this Paragraph, or as may be required by law, to clean up, monitor or remove any Hazardous Materials from the Premises or the Complex.
Tenant shall defend, hold harmless and indemnify Landlord and its agents and employees with respect to all claims, damages and liabilities arising out of or in connection with Tenant’s use, storage, discharge, release or disposition of Hazardous Materials in, from, under or about the Premises or the Complex during the Lease term and whether or not Tenant had knowledge of such Hazardous Material, including, without limitation, any cost of monitoring or removal, any reduction in the fair market value or fair rental value of the Premises or the Complex and any loss, claim or demand by any third person or entity relating to bodily injury or damage to real or personal property.

D. In the event Hazardous Materials are discovered in or about the Premises or the Complex, and Landlord has substantial reason to believe that Tenant was responsible for the presence of the Hazardous Material, then Landlord shall have the right to appoint a consultant, at Landlord’s expense, to conduct an investigation to determine whether Hazardous Materials are located in or about the Premises or the Complex and to determine the corrective measures, if any, required to remove such Hazardous Materials. If Landlord can show that Tenant was responsible for the presence of specific Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises or the Complex, then Tenant, at its expense, shall take such action to remediate such Hazardous Materials for which it was responsible from the Premises and the Complex to the full extent required by law, and shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of its consultant. To the extent Landlord cannot show that Tenant was responsible for the presence of specific Hazardous Materials, then Landlord shall be responsible for any costs incurred under the terms of this Paragraph, and shall reimburse Tenant for any costs incurred by Tenant in responding to Landlord’s investigation.
Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of any inquiry, test, investigation or enforcement proceeding by or against Tenant or the Premises or the Complex concerning a Hazardous Material.

Provided Tenant is not in default under the terms of this Lease, Tenant shall likewise have the right to participate in any negotiations, approvals or appeals of any actions taken or orders issued with regard to the Hazardous Material and Landlord shall not have the right to bind Tenant in said actions or orders.
E. Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord, upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, free of Hazardous Materials the presence of which were caused by Tenant or Tenant’s guests, invitees, contractors or agents. If Tenant fails to so surrender the Premises, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all damages resulting from Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises as required by this Paragraph, including, without limitation, damages occasioned by the inability to relet the Premises or a reduction in the fair market and/or rental value of the Premises or the Complex by reason of the existence of any Hazardous Materials, which are or were caused by Tenant, in or around the Premises or the Complex. Tenant’s indemnity of Landlord as described in this Paragraph 42 shall survive the termination of this Lease.

Throughout the terms of the Lease, Tenant shall continue to update this list of chemicals, contaminants and Hazardous Materials and the amounts employed by Tenant, its employees, agents or contractors prior to Tenant’s use or storage of any materials that requires such list to be updated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this subparagraph shall not apply to Hazardous Materials normally used in an office environment.
G. Landlord shall be responsible for all costs incurred in connection with the investigation, remediation, monitoring and removal of any Hazardous Materials present in, on or about the Premises or the Complex, or the soil, subsoil or water beneath the Premises or the Complex, which was caused by Landlord or Landlord’s agents. Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant and each Tenant Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, causes of action, damages, remediation costs, monitoring costs, clean-up costs, and other costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by Tenant and/or any Tenant Indemnitee as a result of any Hazardous Material being present in, on or about the Premises or the Complex, or the soil, subsoil or water beneath the Complex, to the extent such was caused by Landlord or

Landlord’s agents. Landlord’s indemnity of Tenant as described in this Paragraph 42 shall survive the termination of this Lease.

Tenant shall not be liable for nor otherwise obligated to Landlord under any provision of this Lease with respect to any claim, cost, expense or damage resulting from any Hazardous Material present upon the Premises or the Complex to the extent not caused by Tenant or Tenant’s guests, invitees, contractors, agents or employees; provided, however, Tenant shall be fully liable for and otherwise obligated to Landlord under the provisions of this Lease for all liabilities, costs, damages, penalties, claims, judgments, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ and experts’ fees and costs) and losses to the extent Tenant or Tenant’s guests, invitees, contractors, agents or employees contributes to the presence of such Hazardous Materials or Tenant or Tenant’s guests, invitees, contractors, agents or employees exacerbates the conditions caused by such Hazardous Materials.
I. Except for any Hazardous Materials required to be monitored, remediated or removed by Tenant under and pursuant to this Lease, Landlord agrees that, if and only to the extent required by any governmental entity having jurisdiction over the Complex in a final non-appealable order issued against Tenant, it shall monitor, remediate or remove, or cause to be monitored, remediated or removed: (i) any Hazardous Materials which existed on the Complex as of the effective date of this Lease that were not caused by Tenant or Tenant’s guests, invitees, contractors or agents, and (ii) any Hazardous Materials introduced to the Complex after the effective date of this Lease that were not caused by Tenant or Tenant’s guests, invitees, contractors or agents.
