impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs may include, but are
not limited to, processing and accounting charges and late charges which may be
imposed on Landlord by any ground lease, mortgage or trust deed encumbering the

(10) days after it

to Landlord which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of
fifteen percent (15%) per annum from the due date of such amount. However,
interest shall not be payable on late charges to be paid by Tenant under this
Lease. The payment of interest on such amount shall not excuse or cure any
default by Tenant under this Lease. If the interest rate specified in this Lease
is higher than the rate permitted by law, the interest rate is hereby decreased
to the maximum legal interest rate permitted by law.

requested by any ground lessor or lender to whom Landlord has granted a security
interest in the Property, or if Tenant is more than ten (10) days late in the

Tenant shall pay Landlord a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual real
property taxes and insurance premiums payable by Tenant under this Lease,
together with each payment of Base Rent. Landlord shall hold such payments in a
non-interest bearing impound account. If unknown, Landlord shall reasonably
estimate the amount of real property taxes and insurance premiums when due.

whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from: (a) fire, steam,
electricity, water, gas or rain; (b) the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other
defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or
lighting fixtures or any other cause; (c) conditions arising in or about the
Property or

act or omission of any other Landlord of the Project. ----------- shall not be
liable for any such damage or injury ---------------- the cause of or the means
of repairing such damage ------------------ not accessible to Tenant. The
provisions of this Section 6.02 shall not, however, exempt Landlord from
liability for Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Section 6.03. Landlord's Obligations.
(a) Except as provided in Article Seven (Damage or Destruction) and Article
Eight (Condemnation), Landlord shall keep the following in good order, condition
and repair: the foundations, exterior walls and roof of the Property (including
painting the exterior surface of the exterior walls of the Property not more
often than once every five (5) years, if necessary) and all components of
electrical, mechanical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems and
facilities located in the Property which are concealed or used in common by
Landlords of the Project. However, Landlord shall not be obligated to maintain
or repair windows, doors, plate glass or the interior surfaces of the exterior
walls. Landlord shall make repairs under this Section 6.03 within a reasonable
time after receipt of a written notice from Tenant of the need for such repairs.
(b) Tenant shall pay or reimburse Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs
under Paragraph 6.03(a) above as Common Area costs as provided for in Section
4.05 of the Lease. Tenant waives the benefit of any statute in effect now or in
the future which might give Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord's
expense or to terminate this Lease due to Landlord's failure to keep the
Property in good order, condition and repair.
Section 6.04. Tenant's Obligations.
(a) Except as provided in Section 6.03, Article Seven (Damage or
Destruction) and Article Eight (Condemnation), Tenant shall keep all portions of
the Property (including structural, nonstructural, interior, systems and
equipment) in good order, condition and repair (including interior repainting
and refinishing, as needed). If any portion of the Property or any system or
equipment in the Property which Tenant is obligated to repair cannot be fully
repaired or restored, Tenant shall promptly replace such portion of the Property
or system or equipment in the Property, regardless of whether the benefit of
such replacement extends beyond the Lease Term; but if the benefit or useful
life of such replacement extends beyond the Lease Term (as such terms may be
extended by exercise of any options), the useful life of such replacement shall
be prorated over the remaining portion of the Lease Term (as extended), and
Tenant shall be liable only for that portion of the cost which is applicable to
the Lease Term (as extended). Tenant shall maintain a preventive maintenance
contract providing for the regular inspection and maintenance of the heating and
air conditioning system by a licensed heating and air conditioning contractor.
Landlord shall have the right, upon written notice to Tenant, to undertake the
responsibility for preventive maintenance of the heating and air conditioning
system at Tenant's expense. In addition, Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense,
repair any damage to the roof, foundation or structural portions of walls caused
by Tenant's act or omissions. It is the intention of Landlord and Tenant that,
at all times during the Lease Term, Tenant shall maintain the Property in an
attractive, first-class and fully operative condition.
(b) Tenant shall pay when due all claims for labor and material furnished
to the Property. Tenant shall give Landlord at least twenty (20) days' prior
written notice of the commencement of any work on the Property, regardless of
whether Landlord's consent to such work is required. Landlord may elect to
record and post notices of non-responsibility on the Property.
Section 6.06. Condition upon Termination. Upon termination of the Lease,
Tenant shall surrender the Property to Landlord, broom clean and in the same
condition as received except for ordinary wear and tear which Tenant was not
otherwise obligated to remedy under any provision of this Lease. However, Tenant
shall not be obligated to repair any damage which Landlord is required to repair
under Article Seven (Damage or Destruction). In addition, Landlord may require
Tenant to remove any alterations, additions or improvements (whether or not made
with Landlord's consent) prior to the expiration of the Lease and to restore the
Property to its prior condition, all at Tenant's expense. All alterations,
additions and improvements which Landlord has not required Tenant to remove
shall become Landlord's property and shall be surrendered to Landlord upon the
expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, except that Tenant may remove
any of Tenant's machinery or equipment which can be removed without material
damage to the Property. Tenant shall repair, at Tenant's expense, any damage to
the Property caused by the removal of any such machinery or equipment. In no
event, however, shall Tenant remove any of the following materials or equipment
(which shall be deemed Landlord's property) without Landlord's prior written
consent: any power wiring or power panels; lighting or lighting fixtures; wall
coverings; drapes, blinds or other window coverings; carpets or other floor
coverings; heaters, air conditioners or any other heating or air conditioning
equipment; fencing or security gates; or other similar building operating
equipment and decorations.
ARTICLE SEVEN: DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
Section 7.01. Partial Damage to Property.
(a) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing immediately upon the occurrence
of any damage to the Property. If the Property is only partially damages (i.e.,
less than fifty percent (50%) of the Property is untenantable as a result of
such damage or less than fifty percent (50%) of Tenant's operations are
materially impaired) and if the proceeds received by Landlord from the insurance
policies described in Paragraph 4.04(b) are sufficient to pay for the necessary
repairs, this Lease shall remain in effect and Landlord shall repair the damage
as soon as reasonably possible. Landlord may elect (but is not required) to
repair any damage to Tenant's fixtures, equipment, or improvements.

Initials ----------
-------------------
(b) ----------- proceeds received by Landlord are not ----------- pay
the entire cost of repair or if the cause of the damage is covered by the
insurance policies which Landlord ---------- under Paragraph 4.04(b), Landlord
may elect either to (i) repair the damage as soon as reasonably possible, in
which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, or (ii) terminate
this Lease as of the date the damage occurred. Landlord shall notify Tenant
within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of the occurrence of the damage
whether Landlord elects to repair the damage or terminate the Lease. If Landlord
elects to repair the damage, Tenant shall pay Landlord the "deductible amount"
(if any) under Landlord's insurance policies and, if the damage was due to an
act or omission of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents, contractors or
invitees, the difference between the actual cost of repair and any insurance
proceeds received by Landlord. If Landlord elects to terminate the Lease, Tenant
may elect to continue this Lease in full force and effect, in which case Tenant
shall repair any damage to the Property and any building in which the Property
is located. Tenant shall pay the cost of such repairs, except that upon
satisfactory completion of such repairs, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant any
such insurance proceeds received by Landlord for the damage repaired by Tenant.
Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such election within ten (10) days
after receiving Landlord's termination notice.
(c) If the damage to the property occurs during the last six (6) months of
the Lease Term and such damage will require more than thirty (30) days to
repair, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the
date the damage occurred, regardless of the sufficiency of any insurance
proceeds. The party electing to terminate this Lease shall give written
notification to the other party of such election within thirty (30) days after
Tenant's notice to Landlord of the occurrence of the Damage.
Section 7.02. Substantial or Total Destruction. If the Property is
substantially or totally destroyed by any cause whatsoever (i.e., the damage to
the Property is greater than partial damage as described in Section 7.01), and
regardless of whether Landlord receives any insurance proceeds, this Lease shall
terminate as of the date the destruction occurred. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, if the Property can be rebuilt within six (6) months after the date of
destruction, Landlord may elect to rebuild the Property at Landlord's own
expense, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.
Landlord shall notify Tenant of such election within thirty (30) days after
Tenant's notice of the occurrence of total or substantial destruction. If
Landlord so elects, Landlord shall rebuild the Property at Landlord's sole
expense, except that if the destruction was caused by an act or omission of
Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the difference between the actual cost of
rebuilding and any insurance proceeds received by Landlord.
Section 7.03. Temporary Reduction of Rent. If the Property is destroyed or
damaged and Landlord or Tenant repairs or restores the Property pursuant to the
provisions of this Article Seven, any rent payable during the period of such
damage, repair and/or restoration shall be reduced according to the degree, if
any, to which Tenant's use of the Property is impaired. However, the reduction
shall not exceed the sum of one year's payment of Base Rent, insurance premiums
and real property taxes. Except for such possible reduction in Base Rent,
insurance premiums and real property taxes, Tenant shall not be entitled to any
compensation, reduction, or reimbursement from Landlord as a result of any
damage, destruction, repair, or restoration of or to the Property.
Section 7.04. Waiver. Tenant waives the protection of any statute, code or
judicial decision which grants a Tenant the right to terminate a lease in the
event of the substantial or total destruction of the leased property. Tenant
agrees that the provisions of Section 7.02 above shall govern the rights and
obligations of Landlord and Tenant in the event of any substantial or total
destruction to the Property.
ARTICLE EIGHT: CONDEMNATION
If all or any portion of the Property is taken under the power of eminent
domain or sold under the threat of that power (all of which are called
"Condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as to the part taken or sold on the
date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever occurs first.
If more than twenty percent (20%) of the floor area of the building in which the
Property is located, or which is located on the Property, is taken, either
Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning
authority takes title or possession, by delivering written notice to the other
within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such taking (or in the
absence of such notice, within ten (10) days after the condemning authority
takes title or possession). If neither Landlord nor Tenant terminates this
Lease, this Lease shall remain in effect as to the portion of the Property not
taken, except that the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be reduced in
proportion to the reduction in the floor area of the Property. Any Condemnation
award or payment shall be distributed in the following order: (a) first, to any
ground lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary under a deed of trust encumbering the
Property, the amount of its interest in the Property; (b) second, to Tenant,
only the amount of any award specifically designated for loss of or damage to
Tenant's trade fixtures or removable personal property; and (c) third, to
Landlord, the remainder of such award, whether as compensation for reduction in
the value of the leasehold, the taking of the fee, or otherwise. If this Lease
is not terminated, Landlord shall repair any damage to the Property caused by
the Condemnation, except that Landlord shall not be obligated to repair any
damage for which Tenant has been reimbursed by the condemning authority. If the
severance damages received by Landlord are not sufficient to pay for such
repair, Landlord shall have the right to either terminate this Lease or make
such repair at Landlord's expense.
ARTICLE NINE: ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
Section 9.01. Landlord's Consent Required. No portion of the Property or of
Tenant's interest in this Lease may be acquired by any other person or entity,
whether by sale, assignment, mortgage, sublease, transfer, operation of law, or
act of Tenant, without Landlord's prior written consent, except as provided in
Section 9.02 below. Landlord has the right to grant or withhold its consent as
provided in Section 9.05 below. Any attempted transfer without consent shall be
void and shall constitute a non-curable breach of this Lease. If Tenant is a
partnership, any cumulative transfer of more than twenty percent (20%) of the
partnership interests shall require Landlord's consent. If Tenant is a
corporation, any change in the ownership of a controlling interest of the voting
stock of the corporation shall require Landlord's consent.
Section 9.02. Tenant Affiliate. Tenant may assign this Lease or sublease
the Property, without Landlord's consent, to any corporation which controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or to any corporation
resulting from the merger or consolidation with Tenant ("Tenant's Affiliate").
In such case, any Tenant's Affiliate shall assume in writing all of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease.
Section 9.03. No Release of Tenant. No transfer permitted by this Article
Nine, whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall release Tenant or change
Tenant's primary liability to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations
of Tenant under this Lease. Landlord's acceptance of rent from any other person
is not a waiver of any provision of this Article Nine. Consent to one transfer
is not a consent to any subsequent transfer. If Tenant's transferee defaults
under this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without pursuing
remedies against the Transferee. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments

Initials ----------
-------------------
or modify ------------ this Lease by Tenant's transferee, without notifying
---------- or obtaining the consent. Such action shall not relieve -------------
under this Lease.
Section 9.04. Offer to Terminate. If Tenant desires to assign the Lease or
sublease the Property, Tenant shall have the right to offer, in writing, to
terminate the Lease as of the date specified in the offer. If Landlord elects in
writing to accept the offer to terminate within twenty (20) days after notice of
the offer, the Lease shall terminate as of the date specified and all terms and
provisions of the Lease governing termination shall apply. If Landlord does not
so elect, the Lease shall continue in effect until otherwise terminated and the
provisions of Section 9.05 with respect to any proposed transfer shall continue
to apply.
Section 9.05. Landlord's Consent.
(a) Tenant's request for consent to any transfer described in Section 9.01
shall set forth in writing the details of the proposed transfer, including the
name, business and financial condition of the prospective transferee, financial
details of the proposed transfer (e.g., the term of and the rent and security
deposit payable under any proposed assignment or sublease), and any other
information Landlord deems relevant. Landlord shall have the right to withhold
consent, if reasonable, or to grant consent, based on the following factors: (i)
the business of the proposed assignee or subTenant and the proposed use of the
Property; (ii) the net worth and financial reputation of the proposed assignee
or subTenant; (iii) Tenant's compliance with all of its obligations under the
Lease; and (iv) such other factors as Landlord may reasonably deem relevant. If
Landlord objects to a proposed assignment solely because of the net worth and/or
financial reputation of the proposed assignee, Tenant may nonetheless sublease
(but not assign), all or a portion of the Property to the proposed transferee,
but only in the other terms of the proposed transfer.
(b) If Tenant assigns or subleases, the following shall apply:
(i) Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent under the Lease
the Landlord's Share (stated in Section 1.14) of the Profit (defined below)
on such transaction as and when received by Tenant, unless Landlord gives
written notification to Tenant and the assignee or subTenant that
Landlord's Share shall be paid by the assignee or subTenant to Landlord
directly. The "Profit" means (A) all amounts paid to Tenant for such
assignment or sublease, including "key" money, monthly rent in excess of
the monthly rent payable under the Lease, and all fees and other
consideration paid for the assignment or sublease, including fees under any
collateral agreements, less (B) costs and expenses directly incurred by
Tenant in connection with the execution and performance of such assignment
or sublease for real estate broker's commissions and costs of renovation or
construction of Tenant improvements required under such assignment or
sublease. Tenant is entitled to recover such costs and expenses before
Tenant is obligated to pay the Landlord's Share to Landlord. The Profit in
the case of a sublease of less than all the Property is the rent allocable
to the subleased space as a percentage on a square footage basis.
(ii) Tenant shall provide Landlord a written statement certifying all
amounts to be paid from any assignment or sublease of the Property within
thirty (30) days after the transaction documentation is signed, and
Landlord may inspect Tenant's book and records to verify the accuracy of
such statement. On written request, Tenant shall promptly furnish to
Landlord copies of all the transaction documentation, all of which shall be
certified by Tenant to be complete, true and correct. Landlord's receipt of
Landlord's Share shall not be a consent to any further assignment or
subletting. The breach of Tenant's obligation under this Paragraph 9.05(b)
shall be a material default of the Lease.
Section 9.06. No Merger. No merger shall result from Tenant's sublease of
the Property under this Article Nine, Tenant's surrender of this Lease or the
termination of this Lease in any other manner. In any such event, Landlord may
terminate any or all subtenancies or succeed to the interest of Tenant as
sublandlord under any or all subtenancies.
ARTICLE TEN: DEFAULTS; REMEDIES
Section 10.01. Covenants and Conditions. Tenant's performance of each of
Tenant's obligations under this Lease is a condition as well as a covenant.
Tenant's right to continue in possession of the Property is conditioned upon
such performance. Time is of the essence in the performance of all covenants and
conditions.
Section 10.02. Defaults. Tenant shall be in material default under this
Lease:
(a) If Tenant abandons the Property or if Tenant's vacation of the Property
results in the cancellation of any insurance described in Section 4.04;
(b) If Tenant fails to pay rent or any other charge when due;
(c) If Tenant fails to perform any of Tenant's non-monetary obligations
under this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from
Landlord; provided that if more than thirty (30) days are required to complete
such performance, Tenant shall not be in default if Tenant commences such
performance within the thirty (30) -day period and thereafter diligently pursues
its completion. However, Landlord shall not be required to give such notice if
Tenant's failure to perform constitutes a non-curable breach of this Lease. The
notice required by this Paragraph is intended to satisfy any and all notice
requirements imposed by law on Landlord and is not in addition to any such
requirement.
(d) (i) If Tenant makes a general assignment or general arrangement for the
benefit of creditors; (ii) if a petition for adjudication of bankruptcy or for
reorganization or rearrangement is filed by or against Tenant and is not
dismissed within thirty (30) days; (iii) if a trustee or receiver is appointed
to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the
Property or of Tenant's interest in this Lease and possession is not restored to
Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (iv) if substantially of Tenant's assets
located at the Property or of Tenant's interest in this Lease is subjected to
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure which is not discharged within
thirty (30) days. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of
the acts described in this subparagraph (d) is not a default under this Lease,
and a trustee is appointed to take possession (or if Tenant remains a debtor in
possession) and such trustee or Tenant transfers Tenant's interest hereunder,
then Landlord shall receive, as Additional Rent, the excess, if any, of the rent
(or any other consideration) paid in connection with such assignment or sublease
over the rent payable by Tenant under this Lease.
(e) If any guarantor of the Lease revokes or otherwise terminates, or
purports to revoke or otherwise terminate, any guaranty of all or any portion of
Tenant's obligations under the Lease. Unless otherwise expressly provided, no
guaranty of the Lease is revocable.
Section 10.03. Remedies. On the occurrence of any material default by
Tenant, Landlord may, at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand
and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or remedy which
Landlord may have:
(a) Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Property by any lawful
means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately
surrender possession of the Property to Landlord. In such event, Landlord shall
be entitled to recover
8
Initials ----------
-------------------
from ------------- all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of --------,
including ------------- worth at the time of the award of the ------- Rent,
Additional Rent and other charges which ------------- earned at the time of the
termination; (ii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the
unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which Landlord would have
earned after termination until the time of the award exceeds the amount of such
rental loss that Tenant provides Landlord could have reasonably avoided; (iii)
the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Base Rent,
Additional Rent and other charges which Tenant would have paid for the balance
of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss
that Tenant provides Landlord could have reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other
amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused
by Tenant's failure to perform its obligation xxxxxx the Lease or which in the
ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but
not limited to, any costs and expenses Landlord incurs in maintaining or
preserving the Property after such default, the cost of recovering possession of
the Property, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation or
alteration of the Property, Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in
connection therewith, and any real estate commission paid or payable. As used in
subparts (i) and (ii) above, the "worth at the time of the award" is computed by
allowing interest on unpaid amounts at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per
annum, or such lesser amount as may then be the maximum lawful rate. As used in
subpart (iii) above, the "worth at the time of the award" is computed by
discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco at the time of the award, plus one percent (1%). If Tenant has
abandoned the Property, Landlord shall have the option of (i) retaking
possession of the Property and recovering from Tenant the amount specified in
this Paragraph 10.03(a), or (ii) proceeding under Paragraph 10.03(b);
(b) Maintain Tenant's right to possession. In which case this Lease shall
continue in effect whether or not Tenant has abandoned the Property. In such
event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's rights and
remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes
due;
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under
the laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Property is located.
Section 10.04. Repayment of "Free" Rent. If this Lease provides for a
postponement of any monthly rental payments, a period of "free" rent or other
rent concession, such postponed rent or "free" rent is called the "Abated Rent."
Tenant shall be credited with having paid all of the Abated Rent on the
expiration of the Lease Term only if Tenant has fully, faithfully, and
punctually performed all of Tenant's obligations hereunder, including the
payment of all rent (other than the Abated Rent) and all other monetary
obligations and the surrender of the Property in the physical condition required
by this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that its right to receive credit for the
Abated Rent is absolutely conditioned upon Tenant's full, faithful and punctual
performance of its obligations under this Lease. If Tenant defaults and does not
cure within any applicable grace period, the Abated Rent shall immediately
become due and payable in full and this Lease shall be enforced as if there were
no such rent abatement or other rent concession. In such case Abated Rent shall
be calculated based on the full initial rent payable under this Lease.
Section 10.05. Automatic Termination. Notwithstanding any other term or
provision hereof to the contrary, the Lease shall terminate on the occurrence of
any act which affirms the Landlord's intention to terminate the Lease as
provided in Section 10.03 hereof, including the filing of an unlawful detainer
action against Tenant. On such termination, Landlord's damages for default shall
include all costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees that Landlord
incurs in connection with the filing, commencement, pursuing and/or defending of
any action in any bankruptcy court or other court with respect to the Lease; the
obtaining of relief from any stay in bankruptcy restraining any action to evict
Tenant; or the pursuing of any action with respect to Landlord's right to
possession of the Property. All such damages suffered (apart from Base Rent and
other rent payable hereunder) shall constitute pecuniary damages which must be
reimbursed to Landlord prior to assumption of the Lease by Tenant or any
successor to Tenant in any bankruptcy or other proceeding.
Section 10.06. Cumulative Remedies. Landlord's exercise of any right or
remedy shall not prevent it from exercising any other right or remedy.
ARTICLE ELEVEN: PROTECTION OF LENDERS
Section 11.01. Subordination. Landlord shall have the right to subordinate
this Lease on any ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage encumbering the
Property, any advances made on the security thereof and any renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements or extensions thereof, whenever made
or recorded. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and any lender which is
acquiring a security interest in the Property or the Lease. Tenant shall execute
such further documents and assurances as such lender may require, provided that
Tenant's obligation under this Lease shall not be increased in any material way
(the performance of ministerial acts shall not be deemed material), and Tenant
shall not be deprived of its rights under this Lease. Tenant's right to quiet
possession of the Property during the Lease Term shall not be disturbed if
Tenant pays the rent and performs all of Tenant's obligation under this Lease
and is not otherwise in default. If any ground lessor, beneficiary or mortgagee
elects to have this Lease prior to the lien of its ground lease, deed of trust
or mortgage and gives written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be
deemed prior to such ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage whether this Lease
is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said ground lease, deed of trust or
mortgage or the date of recording thereof.
Section 11.02. Attornment. If Landlord's interest in the Property is
acquired by any ground lessor, beneficiary under a deed of trust, mortgagee, or
purchaser at a foreclosure sale, Tenant shall attorn to the transferee of or
successor to Landlord's interest in the Property and recognize such transferee
or success as Landlord under this Lease. Tenant waives the protection of any
statute or rule of law which gives or purports to give Tenant any right to
terminate this Lease or surrender possession of the Property upon the transfer
of Landlord's interest.
Section 11.03. Signing of Documents. Tenant shall sign and deliver any
Instrument or documents necessary or appropriate to evidence any such attornment
or subordination or agreement to do so. If Tenant fails to do so within ten (10)
days after written request, Tenant hereby makes, constitutes and irrevocably
appoints Landlord, or any transferee or successor of Landlord, the
attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute and deliver any such instrument or
document.
Section 11.04. Estoppel Certificates.
(a) Upon Landlord's written request, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver to Landlord a written statement certifying: (i) that none of the terms
or provisions of this Lease have been changed (or if they have been changed,
stating how they have been changed); (ii) that this Lease has not been canceled
or terminated; (iii) the last date of payment of the Base Rent and other charges
and the time period covered by such payment; (iv) that Landlord is not in
default under this Lease (or, if
9
Initials ----------
-------------------
Landlord is claimed to be default, stating why); and (v) ------------
representations or information with respect to Tenant or ------------ Landlord
may reasonably request or which ---------- purchaser or encumbrancer of the
Property may -------- shall deliver such statement to Landlord within ten (10)
days after Landlord's request. Landlord may give any such statement by Tenant to
any such prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Property. Such purchaser
or encumbrancer may rely conclusively upon such statement as true and correct.
(b) If Tenant does not deliver such statement to Landlord within such ten
(10) -day period, Landlord, and any perspective purchaser or encumbrancer, may
conclusively presume and rely upon the following facts: (i) that the terms and
provisions of this Lease have not been changed except as otherwise represented
by Landlord; (ii) that this Lease has not been canceled or terminated except as
otherwise represented by Landlord; (iii) that not more than one month's Base
Rent or other charges have been paid in advance; and (iv) that Landlord is not
in default under the Lease. In such event, Tenant shall be estopped from denying
the truth of such facts.
Section 11.05. Tenant's Financial Condition. Within ten (10) days after
written request from Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord such financial
statements as Landlord reasonably requires to verify the net worth of Tenant or
any assignee, subTenant, or guarantor of Tenant. In addition, Tenant shall
deliver to any lender designated by Landlord any financial statements required
by such lender to facilitate the financing or refinancing of the Property.
Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that each such financial statement is
a true and accurate statement as of the date of such statement. All financial
statements shall be confidential and shall be used only for the purposes set
forth in this Lease.
ARTICLE TWELVE: LEGAL COSTS
Section 12.01. Legal Proceedings. If Tenant and Landlord shall be in breach
or default under this Lease, such party (the "Defaulting Party") shall reimburse
the other party (the "Nondefaulting Party") upon demand of any costs or expenses
that the Nondefaulting Party incurs in connection with any breach or default of
the Defaulting Party under this Lease, whether or not suit is commenced or
judgment entered. Such costs shall include legal fees and costs incurred for the
negotiation of a settlement, enforcement of rights or otherwise. Furthermore, if
any action for breach of or to enforce the provisions of this Lease is
commenced, the court in such action shall award to the party in whose favor a
judgment is entered, a reasonable sum as attorneys' fees and costs. The losing
party in such action shall pay such attorneys' fees and costs. Tenant shall also
indemnify Landlord against and hold Landlord harmless from all costs, expenses,
demands and liability Landlord may incur if Landlord becomes or is made a party
to any claim or action (a) instituted by Tenant against any third party, or by
any third party against Tenant, or by or against any person holding any interest
under or using the Property by license of or agreement with Tenant; (b) for
foreclosure of any lien for labor or material furnished to or for Tenant or such
other person; (c) otherwise arising out of or resulting from any act or
transaction of Tenant or such other person; or (d) necessary to protect
Landlord's interest under this Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding, or other
proceeding under title 11 of the United States Code, as amended. Tenant shall
defend Landlord against any such claim or action at Tenant's expense with
counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord or, at Landlord's election, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord for any legal fees or costs Landlord incurs in any such
claim or action.
Section 12.02. Landlord's Consent. Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred in connection with Tenant's request for Landlord's
consent under Article Nine (Assignment and Subletting), or in connection with
any other act which Tenant proposes to do and which requires Landlord's consent.
ARTICLE THIRTEEN: MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 13.01. Non-Discrimination. Tenant promises, and it is a condition
to the continuance of this Lease, that there will be no discrimination against,
or segregation of, any person or group of persons on the basis of race, color,
sex, creed, national origin or ancestry in the leasing, subleasing,
transferring, occupancy, tenure or use of the Property or any portion thereof.
Section 13.02. Landlord's Liability; Certain Duties.
(a) As used in this Lease, the term "Landlord" means only the current owner
