identified in Paragraph 1 for the construction of a building and/or related
facilities (the "Improvements") on the Premises. Landlord shall have prepared
final plans and specifications ("Final Plans") substantially in conformity with
the Preliminary Plans. "Plans" shall hereinafter mean Preliminary Plans and
then, when prepared, Final Plans. Final Plans shall be delivered to Tenant as
soon as reasonably possible. Within ten (10) days after delivery of the Final
Plans, Tenant shall set forth in writing with particularity and precision, any
corrections or changes necessary to bring the Final Plans into substantial
conformity with the Preliminary Plans, except that Tenant may not object to any
logical development or refinement of the Preliminary Plans. Failure to deliver
to Landlord written notice of such corrections or changes within said ten (10)
day period shall constitute approval of the Final Plans by Tenant. Following
approval of the Final Plans, changes may be made only in accordance with
Paragraph 3.3.
3.2 CONSTRUCTION. Landlord shall construct or cause to be constructed the
Improvements substantially in accordance with the Plans. The Premises shall be
ready for occupancy on the date upon which the work of construction to be
undertaken by Landlord has been substantially completed ("Ready for Occupancy")
as determined by the issuance of a written certificate by Landlord to Tenant
certifying (a) that the Improvements have been substantially completed in
accordance with the Plans, and (b) the date of such completion. Landlord shall
complete, as soon as reasonably possible, any items of work or adjustment not
completed when the Premises are Ready for Occupancy and such defective or
omitted work undertaken by Landlord of which Tenant has given Landlord written
notice within thirty (30) days after the date the Premises are Ready for
Occupancy. The Premises shall be Ready for Occupancy not later than the
Scheduled Term Commencement Date; provided, however, that the Scheduled Term
Commencement Date may be extended for a period of time equal to the period of
any delay encountered by Landlord affecting said work of construction because of
fire, inclement weather, acts of God, riot, governmental regulations, strikes,
shortages of material or labor, changes in the Plans pursuant to Paragraph 3.3,
or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.
3.3 CHANGES IN PLANS. Tenant shall have the right to request changes in
the Plans, provided, however, that: (a) no such request shall affect any
structural change in the Improvements, (b) Tenant shall pay upon demand, any
additional cost incurred by Landlord required to implement such change, (c) such
requests shall constitute an agreement on the part of Tenant to any delay in
completion caused by reviewing, processing and implementing the change, and
(d) Tenant's obligation to pay Rent hereunder shall commence to accrue on the
date when the same would have otherwise commenced to be payable hereunder had
such changes not been requested by Xxxxxx. In connection with the original
construction of the Improvements, each party shall be bound by each approval or
lack thereof given by its respective Construction Representative. A party may
designate a substitute Construction Representative by giving written notice to
the other party.
3.4 COMMENCEMENT. The Term of this Lease all commence upon the earlier

Premises are Ready for Occupancy, (b) the date upon which Tenant first occupies
any portion of the Premises, or (c) the date upon which Rent would have
otherwise commenced to accrue under this Lease had Tenant not delayed in the
performance of any of its duties or obligations hereunder or had not otherwise
interfered with or caused a delay in the performance of Landlord's obligations
hereunder. It the work of construction is not completed within one hundred
twenty (120) days after the Scheduled Term Commencement Date as extended
pursuant to Paragraph 3.2, the sole remedy of either party shall be the option
to terminate this Lease by the delivery to the other party of written notice of
such termination within ten (10) days thereafter.

such other place designated by Landlord by written notice to Tenant the Rent, in
lawful money of the United States, in advance, without demand, off-set or
deduction, on the first day of each calendar month of the Term hereof. In the
event the Term commences or the date of expiration of this Lease occurs other
than on the first day or the last day of a calendar month, the Rent for such
month shall be prorated. This Lease is what is commonly called a "net lease,"
it being understood that Landlord shall receive the Rent free and clear of any
and all impositions, taxes, liens, charges or expenses of any nature or kind
whatsoever in connection with the ownership and operation of the Premises. If
Rent is not received as provided above, a late charge shall be payable by Xxxxxx
as provided in Paragraph 13.4. In the event that a late charge is payable,
whether or not collected, two times in any twelve month period, then Rent shall
automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance, rather than monthly.
5. DEPOSITS.
5.1 TAXES, INSURANCE AND MAINTENANCE RESERVE. Tenant shall deposit with
Landlord each month the amount set forth in Paragraph l as a reserve to be used
to pay real property taxes, maintenance expenses and insurance expenses on the
Premises which are payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. If the
amounts deposited with Landlord by Tenant under the provisions of this Paragraph
are insufficient to discharge the obligations of Tenant, Tenant shall deposit
with Landlord, upon Landlord's demand, the additional sums necessary to fully
satisfy such obligations. All monies deposited with Landlord under this
Paragraph may be intermingled with other monies of Landlord and shall not bear
interest.
5.2 SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant has deposited with Landlord the Security
Deposit set forth in Paragraph 1 above as security for Xxxxxx's faithful
performance of Xxxxxx's obligations hereunder. If Tenant fails to pay Rent or
other charges due hereunder, or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision
of this Lease, Landlord may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said
deposit for the payment of any Rent or other charge in default or for the
payment of any other sum to which Landlord may become obligated by reason of
Tenant's default, or to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage which
Landlord may suffer thereby. If Landlord so uses or applies all or any portion
of said deposit, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after written demand
therefor deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore said
deposit to the full amount stated in Paragraph 1 and Tenant's failure to do so
shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to
keep said deposit separate from its general accounts. If Xxxxxx performs all of
Tenant's obligations hereunder, said deposit, or so much thereof as has not
theretofore been applied by Landlord, shall be returned, without payment of
interest or other increment for its use, to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to
the last assignee, if any, of Xxxxxx's interest hereunder) at the expiration of
the Term hereof, and after Xxxxxx has vacated the Premises. No trust
relationship is created herein between Landlord and Tenant with respect to said
Security Deposit.

and regulating the use of the Premises, and accepts this Lease subject thereto

withheld for any reason and may be revoked at any time. Tenant shall be liable

in, or about the Premises that Tenant shall desire to make and which require the

(c) Tenant shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials

8.1 COVERAGE. The following insurance and any additional insurance
coverage that may be required by law, or holders of mortgages or deeds of trust

but in no event less than the total amount required by lenders having liens on
the Premises, against all perils included within the classification of fire,
extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, and special extended perils
("all risk" as such term is used in the insurance industry). Said insurance
shall provide for payment of loss thereunder to Landlord or to the holders of
mortgages or deeds of trust on the Premises. A stipulated value or agreed
amount endorsement deleting the co-insurance provision of the policy shall be
procured with said insurance. If such insurance coverage has a deductible

in the amount of six million dollars or such higher limits as Landlord may
reasonably require.
(c) Insurance against abatement or loss of rent in case of fire or
other casualty in an amount equal to the Rent, Real Property Taxes, and

building and Tenant can provide suitable insurance at lesser cost within thirty
(30) days after notice of the company and rate obtained by Landlord; Tenant may
do so and shall not be liable to Landlord for any cost of temporary insurance in
excess of the rate for the substitute insurance. It Tenant fails to maintain
insurance which Tenant has undertaken to provide, Tenant shall pay for any loss
or cost resulting from said failure.

or other modification except after thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
Landlord. The insuring party shall deposit with such mortgage holders as
Landlord may require, policies, duplicates or certificates as such holders may
require, and shall in all cases furnish the other party with policies,
duplicates and certificates. Tenant shall not violate or permit to be violated
any of the conditions or provisions of any policy provided for in Paragraph 8.1,
and Tenant shall so perform and satisfy the requirements of the companies
writing such policies so that at all times companies of good standing reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord shall be willing to write and/or continue such
insurance.
8.4 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Tenant and Landlord each hereby release and
relieve the other and waive their entire right of recovery against the other for
loss or damage arising out of or incident to the perils insured against

negligence of Tenant or Landlord or their agents, employees, contractors and/or
invitees. Tenant and Landlord shall, upon obtaining the policies of insurance
required hereunder, give notice to the insurance carrier or carriers that the
foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is contained in this Lease.

8.5 INDEMNITY. Except in the case of gross negligence by Landlord, Tenant
shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims
arising from Tenant's use of the Premises, or from the conduct of Tenant's
business or from any activity, work or things done, permitted of suffered by
Tenant in or about the Premises or elsewhere and shall further indemnity and
hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims arising from any
breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant's part to be
performed under the terms of this Lease, or arising from any negligence of
Tenant, or any of Tenant's agents, contractors, or employees, and from and
against all costs, attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the
defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon; and in
case any action or proceeding be brought against Landlord by reason of any such
claim, Tenant upon notice from Landlord shall defend the same at Tenant's
expense by counsel satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant as a material part of the

injury to persons, in, upon or about the Premises arising from any cause, except
the gross negligence of Landlord, and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect
thereof against Landlord.
8.6 EXEMPTION OF LANDLORD FROM LIABILITY. Except in the case of gross
negligence of Landlord, Tenant hereby agrees that Landlord shall not be liable
for injury to Tenant's business or any loss of income therefrom or for damage to
the goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Tenant, Tenant's employees,
invitees, customers, or any other person in or about the Premises; nor shall
Landlord be liable for injury to the person of Tenant, Tenant's employees,
agents or contractors, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results
from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage,
leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances,
plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause,
whether said damage or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises
or upon other portions of the building of which the Premises are a part, or from
other sources or places, and regardless of whether the cause of such damage or
injury or the means of repairing same is inaccessible to Tenant. Landlord shall
not be liable for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other
tenant, if any, of the building in which the Premises are located.
9. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.
9.1 PARTIAL DAMAGE-INSURED. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs
9.3 and 9.4, if the Premises are damaged and such damage was caused by a
casualty covered under an insurance policy, Landlord shall, or at Landlord's
option, Tenant shall repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible and
this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If the insurance
proceeds received by Landlord are not sufficient to effect such repair and
Landlord elects to repair, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand any costs
incurred by Landlord not fully covered by insurance proceeds. If Tenant
repairs the damage, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the costs of repair
to the extent of insurance proceeds received by Landlord.
9.2 PARTIAL DAMAGE-UNINSURED. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 9.3
and 9.4, it at any time during the Term hereof the Premises are damaged, except
by a negligent or willful act of Tenant (in which event Tenant shall make the
repairs at its expense), and such damage was caused by a casualty not covered
under an insurance policy required to be maintained pursuant to Paragraph 8.1,
Landlord may at Landlord's option either (a) repair such damage as soon as
reasonably possible at Landlord's expense, in which event this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect, or (b) give written notice to Tenant within
thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Landlord's
intention to cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of
such damage. In the event Landlord elects to give such notice of Landlord's
intention to cancel and terminate this Lease, Tenant shall have the right
within twenty (20) days after the receipt of such notice to give written notice
to Landlord of Tenant's intention to repair such damage at Tenant's expense,
without reimbursement from Landlord, in which event this Lease shall continue in
full force and effect, and Tenant shall proceed to make such repairs as soon
reasonably possible. If Tenant does not give such notice within such twenty
(20) day period, this Lease shall be cancelled and terminated as of the date of
the occurrence of such damage.
9.3 TOTAL DESTRUCTION. If at any time during the Term of this Lease
there is damage, whether or not an insured loss, (including destruction required
by any authorized public authority) to the building of which the Premises are a
part to the extent that the cost of repair exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the
then replacement cost of such building as a whole, but not including the cost of
the land thereon, then this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date
of such destruction.
9.4 DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. If the Premises are damaged during the last
year of the Term of this Lease, Landlord may at Landlord's option cancel and
terminate this Lease as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving
written notice to Tenant of Landlord's election to do so within thirty (30) days
after the date of occurrence of such damage.
9.5 ABATEMENT OF RENT. In the event of damage described in paragraphs 9.1
or 9.2, and Landlord or Tenant repairs or restores the Premises, Rent for the
period during which such damage, repair or restoration continues shall be abated
in proportion to the degree to which Xxxxxx's use of the premises is impaired,
but only to the extent of any proceeds received by Landlord from rental
abatement insurance described in Paragraph 8.1. Except for the abatement of
Rent, if any, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for any damage
suffered by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair or restoration.
9.6 WAIVER. Tenant and Landlord hereby waive the provisions of California
Civil Code Paragraphs 1932 (2) and 1933 (4) or any related or successor
provision of law which relate to termination of leases when the thing leased is
destroyed and agree that such event shall be governed by the terms of this
Lease.
10. REAL PROPERTYTAXES.
10.1 PAYMENT OF TAXES. Tenant shall pay the real property tax, as defined
in Paragraph 10.2, applicable to the Premises during the Term of this Lease. If
deposits collected for real property taxes as provided in Paragraph 5.1 are not
sufficient to discharge Tenant's obligations, payment of the balance shall be
made at least ten (10) days prior to the delinquency date by depositing the
balance with Landlord. If any Such taxes paid by Tenant shall cover any period
of time after the expiration of the Term hereof, Xxxxxx's share of such taxes
shall be equitably prorated to cover only the period of time within the tax
fiscal year during which this Lease shall be in effect, and Landlord shall
reimburse Tenant to the extent required within thirty (30) days following
expiration of the Term. If Tenant shall fail to pay any such taxes, Landlord
shall have the right to pay the same, in which case Tenant shall repay such
amount to Landlord with Xxxxxx's next Rent installment together with interest at
the maximum rate then allowable by law.
10.2 DEFINITION OF "REAL PROPERTY TAX". As used herein, the term Real
Property Tax shall include any form of real estate tax or assessment, general,
special, ordinary or extraordinary, and any license fee, commercial rental tax,
improvement bond or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income
or estate taxes) imposed on the Premises by any authority having the direct or
indirect power to tax, including any city, state or federal government, or any
school, agricultural, sanitary, fire, street, drainage or other improvement
district thereof, as against any legal or equitable interest of Landlord in the
Premises or in the real property of which the Premises are a part, as against
Landlord's right to rent or other income therefrom, and as against Landlord's
business of leasing the Premises. Real Property Tax shall also include any tax,
fee, levy, assessment or charge (i) in substitution of, partially or totally,
any tax, fee, levy assessment or charge hereinabove included within the
definition of Real Property Tax or (ii) the nature of which was hereinbefore
included within the definition of Real Property Tax.
10.3 JOINT ASSESSMENT. If the Premises are not separately assessed,
Xxxxxx's liability shall be an equitable proportion of the Real Property Taxes
for all of the land and improvements included within the tax parcel assessed,
such proportion to be determined by Landlord from the respective valuations
assigned in the assessor's work sheets or such other information as may be
reasonably available. Landlord's reasonable determination thereof, in good
faith, shall be conclusive.
10.4 PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES. Tenant shall pay prior to delinquency all
taxes assessed against and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment
and all personal property of Tenant contained in the Premises or elsewhere.
When possible, Tenant shall cause said trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment
and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the
real property of Landlord.
11. UTILITIES. Tenant shall pay for heat, water, gas, electricity, and any
other utilities and services supplied to the Premises together with taxes
thereon. Tenant shall be responsible for any installation or hook-up charge.
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for interruption in or curtailment of any
utility service, nor shall any such interruption in or curtailment constitute a
constructive eviction or grounds for rental abatement. If any such services are
not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay a reasonable proportion to be
determined by Landlord of all charges jointly metered with other premises.
12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
12.1 LANDLORD'S CONSENT REQUIRED. Tenant shall not voluntarily or by
operation of law assign, mortgage, sublet, or otherwise transfer or encumber all
or any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease or in the Premises without
Landlord's prior written consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its
consent to an assignment or sublet, provided the proposed assignee or sublessee
is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord as to credit and will occupy and use the
Premises for the same purposes specified in Paragraph 1. Any attempted
assignment, transfer, mortgage, encumbrance or subletting without such consent
shall constitute a breach of this Lease and be voidable at Landlord's election.
Tenant shall pay to Landlord five hundred dollars ($500) as compensation for
expenses in connection with any request for Xxxxxxxx's consent by Xxxxxx.
12.2 NO RELEASE OF TENANT. Regardless of Landlord's consent, no subletting
or assignment shall release Tenant of Tenant's obligation or alter the primary
liability of Tenant to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be
performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any
other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision
hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to
any subsequent assignment or subletting.
12.3 RECAPTURE OF PREMISES. In connection with any proposed assignment or
sublease, Tenant shall submit to Landlord in writing (a) the name of the
proposed assignee or sublessee (b) such information as to its financial
responsibility and standing as Landlord may reasonably require, and (c) all of
the terms and conditions upon which the proposed assignment or subletting is to
be made. Landlord shall have an option to cancel and terminate this Lease with
respect to all or such portion of the Premises which is to be assigned or
sublet. Landlord may exercise said option in writing within thirty (30) days
after its receipt from Tenant of such request to assign or sublease the
Premises. If Landlord shall exercise its option, Xxxxxx shall surrender
possession of the entire Premises, or the portion thereof which is the subject
of the option. If this Lease is cancelled as to a portion of the Premises only,
the Rent after the date of cancellation shall be reduced in the proportion that
the floor area of the cancelled portion bears to the total floor area of the
Premises.
12.4 EXCESS SUBLEASE RENTAL. If, on account of or in connection with any
assignment or sublease, Xxxxxx receives rent or other consideration in excess
of the Rent called for hereunder, or in the case of the sublease of a portion of
the Premises, in excess of the pro rata Rent based on the floor area of such
portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure all other payments called for
hereunder are appropriately taken into account, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
fifty percent (50%) of the excess of such payment of rent or other consideration
received by Tenant promptly after its receipt.

13. DEFAULTS; REMEDIES.
13.1 DEFAULTS. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:
(a) The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Xxxxxx.
(b) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of Rent or any other
payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due, where such
failure shall continue for a period of three (3) days after written notice
thereof from landlord to Tenant.
(c) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants,
conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Xxxxxx,
other than described in Paragraph 13.1(b), where such failure shall continue for
a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to
Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant's default is such that
more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant
shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant commences such cure within said
thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to
completion.
(d) (i) The making by Tenant of any general arrangement or assignment
for the benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition
to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or
arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days);
(iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of
substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's
interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty
(30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of
substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's
interest in this Lease where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30)
days.
(e) The discovery by Landlord that any financial statement given to
Landlord by Xxxxxx, any assignee of Tenant, any subtenant of Tenant, any
successor in interest or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder was
materially false.
13.2 REMEDIES. In the event of any material default or breach 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 by reason of such default or breach:
(a) Terminate Xxxxxx's right to possession of the Premises, in which
case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender
possession of the Premises to Landlord. In such event, Landlord shall be
entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of
Tenant's default including, but not limited to, the cost of recovering
possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting including necessary renovation
and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, and any real estate
commission actually paid; the worth at the time of award by the court having
jurisdiction thereof of the amount which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the
Term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the
same period that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and that portion of
the leasing commission paid by Landlord applicable to the unexpired Term of this
Lease. Unpaid installments of Rent or other sums shall bear interest from the
date due at the maximum rate then allowable by law.
(b) Maintain Tenant's right to possession in which case this Lease
shall continue in effect whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the
Premises. In such event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of
Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover
the Rent as it becomes due hereunder.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord
under the laws or judicial decisions of the State of California.
13.3 DEFAULT BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord
fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within thirty (30) days after
written notice by Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any mortgage or deed
of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore
been furnished to Tenant in writing, specifying wherein Landlord has failed to
perform such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's
obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance,
then Landlord shall not be in default it Landlord commences performance within
such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to
completion.
13.4 LATE CHARGES. Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant
to landlord of Rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur
costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be
extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to,
processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on
Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises.
Accordingly, if any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall
not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within five (5) days after
such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Tenant,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such
overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a
fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of late
payment by Xxxxxx. Acceptance of such late charge by Landlord shall in no event
constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor
prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted
hereunder.
14. CONDEMNATION. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the
power of eminent domain, or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power
(all of which are herein called "Condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as
to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or
possession, whichever first occurs. If more than ten percent (100%) of the
floor area of the building on the Premises or more than twenty-five percent
(25%) of the land area of the Premises which is not occupied by any building is
taken by Condemnation; then Tenant may, at Tenant's option to be exercised in
writing only within ten (10) days after Landlord shall have given Tenant written
notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days
after the condemning authority shall have taken possession), terminate this
Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Tenant
does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall
remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining,
except that the Rent shall be reduced in the proportion that the floor area
taken bears to the total floor area of the building situated on the Premises.
No reduction in Rent shall occur if the only area taken is that which does not
have a building located thereon. Any award for the taking of all or any part of
the Premises under the power of eminent domain or any payment made under threat
of the exercise of such power shall be the property of Landlord, whether such
award shall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or
for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that
Tenant shall be entitled to any award for loss or damage to Tenant's trade
fixtures and removable personal property. In the event that this Lease is not
terminated by reason of such Condemnation, Landlord shall, to the extent of
severance damages received by Landlord in connection with such Condemnation,
repair any damage to the Premises caused by such Condemnation except to the
extent that Xxxxxx has been reimbursed therefor by the condemning authority.
Tenant shall pay any amount in excess of such severance damages required to
complete such repair.
15. EXAMINATION OF LEASE. Submission of this instrument for examination or
signature by Xxxxxx does not constitute a reservation of or option to lease.
This instrument is not effective as a lease or otherwise until execution and
delivery by Landlord and Tenant.
16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
(a) Tenant shall, at any time during the Term, upon ten (10) days prior
written notice from Landlord execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a
statement in writing (i) 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, and (ii)
acknowledging that there are not, to Xxxxxx's knowledge, any uncured defaults on
the part of Landlord hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed.
Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser
or encumbrancer of the Premises.
(b) At Landlord's option, Xxxxxx's failure to deliver such statement
within ten (10) days of receipt of written notice shall be a material breach of
this Lease or shall be conclusive upon Tenant (i) that this Lease is in full
force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord,
(ii) that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance, and (iii)
that not more than one month's Rent has been paid in advance.
(c) If Landlord desires to finance, refinance or sell the Premises, or any
part thereof, Tenant hereby agrees upon ten (10) days prior written notice to
deliver to Landlord such financial statements of Tenant as may be reasonably
required by a lender or purchaser. Such statement shall include the past three
years' financial statements of Tenant. All such financial statements shall be
received by Landlord in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes
herein set forth.
17. LANDLORD'S LIABILITY. Whenever Landlord conveys its interest in the
Premises, except to the extent that Landlord is in material default at the time
of conveyance, Landlord shall be automatically released from all liability as
respects the further performance of covenants on the part of Landlord herein
contained provided the assignee executes an assumption agreement expressly
agreeing to assume all of Landlord's obligations with respect to this Lease. If
requested, Xxxxxx shall execute a form of release and such other documentation
as may be required to further effect these provisions. Xxxxxx agrees to look
solely to Xxxxxxxx's estate and interest in the Premises for the satisfaction of
any liability, duty or obligation of Landlord in respect to this Lease or the
relationship of Landlord and Tenant hereunder and no other assets of Landlord
shall be subject to any liability therefor. Xxxxxx agrees it will not seek and
hereby waives any recourse against the individual partners, directors, officers,
employees or shareholders of Landlord or any of their personal assets for such
satisfaction.
18. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction shall in no way affect the validity of any
other provision hereof.
19. INTEREST ON PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS. Except as expressly herein provided, any
amount due to Landlord not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum rate
then allowable by law from the date due. Payment of such interest shall not
excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease.
20. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence.
21. ADDITIONAL RENT. Any monetary obligations of Tenant to Landlord under the
terms of this Lease shall be deemed to be rent.
22. INCORPORATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS; AMENDMENTS. This Lease contains all
agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein. No prior
agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter shall be effective.
This Lease may be modified in writing only, signed by the parties in interest at
the time of the modification.
23. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be
in writing and may be given by personal service or by certified mail, return
receipt requested. Notice by certified mail shall be deemed served on the date
to delivery as shown on the postal receipt. Either party may by notice to the
other specify a different address for notice purposes, except that, upon
Xxxxxx's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall constitute
Tenant's address for notice purposes. A copy of all notices to be given to
Landlord hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted by Tenant to such party or
parties at such addresses as Landlord may hereafter designate by notice to
Tenant.
4
24. WAIVER. No waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof shall be deemed a
waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Tenant of
the same or any other provision. Xxxxxxxx's consent to or approval of any act
shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Landlord's consent to
or approval of any subsequent act by Xxxxxx. The acceptance of Rent hereunder
by Landlord shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach Tenant or of any
provision hereof, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so
accepted, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the
time of acceptance of such Rent. Partial or incomplete payments accepted by
Landlord shall not be a waiver or considered an accord and satisfaction of any
amounts due.
25. CAPTIONS. Paragraph captions are not a part hereof.
26. HOLDING OVER. If Tenant remains in possession of the Premises or any part
thereof after the expiration of the Term without the express written consent of
Landlord, such occupancy shall be a tenancy from month to month at a rental
equal to the Rent during the last month of The Term increased by twenty percent
(20%) and upon all the terms hereof applicable to a month-to-month tenancy.
27. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at
law or in equity.
28. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. Each provision of this Lease performable by
Tenant shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition.
29. BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 12
and 17, this Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives. This
Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.
30. SUBORDINATION.
(a) This Lease, at Landlord's option, shall be subordinate to any
ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or any other hypothecation or security
now or hereafter placed upon the real property of which the Premises are a part
and to any and all advances made on the security thereof and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. Xxxxxxxx's
election to subordinate this Lease shall not be effective unless the ground
lessor, mortgagee or trustee shall execute with Tenant a nondisturbance
agreement recognizing that Xxxxxx's, right to quiet possession of the Premises
shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default and so long as Tenant shall
pay the Rent and observe and perform al the provisions of this Lease. If any
mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect to have this Lease prior to the
lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall give written
notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage,
deed of trust, or ground lease, whether this Lease is dated prior or subsequent
to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease or the date of
recording thereof.
(b) Xxxxxx agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an
attornment, a Subordination or to make this Lease prior to the lien of any
mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as the case may be. Tenant's failure
to execute such documents within ten (10) days after written demand shall
constitute a default by Tenant hereunder, or at Landlord's option, Landlord
shall execute such documents on behalf of Tenant as Xxxxxx's attorney-in-fact.
Xxxxxx does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint Landlord as Xxxxxx's
attorney-in-fact and in Tenant's name, place and stead to execute such
documents.
31. ATTORNEY'S FEES. If Landlord or Xxxxxx brings an action to enforce its
respective rights hereunder, the unsuccessful party therein agrees to pay all
costs incurred by the prevailing party therein, including reasonable attorney's
fees and court costs to be fixed by the court.
32. LANDLORD'S ACCESS. Landlord and Landlord's agents shall have the right to
enter the Premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same,
showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or tenants, and making such
alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the
building of which they are a part as Landlord may deem necessary or desirable.
Landlord may at any time during the last one hundred twenty (120) days of the
Term hereof place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Sale" or "For
Lease" signs, all without rebate of Rent or liability to Tenant.
33. AUCTIONS. Tenant shall not conduct any auction without Landlord's prior
written consent.
34. SIGNS. Any sign placed on the Premises shall contain only Tenant's name or
the name of any affiliate of Tenant actually occupying the Premises, but no
advertising matter. No such sign shall be erected until Tenant has obtained
Landlord's written approval of the location, materials, size, design, and
content thereof and any necessary permit therefor. Tenant shall remove any such
sign upon termination and return the Premises to their condition prior to the
placement of said sign.
35. MERGER. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a
mutual cancellation thereof, or a termination by Landlord, shall not work a
merger and shall at the option of the Landlord, terminate all or any existing
subtenancies or may, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to
Landlord of any or all of such tenancies.
36. EASEMENTS, BOUNDARY CHANGES. Landlord reserves to itself the right, from
time to time, to grant such easements, rights, dedications and enact boundary
and common area configuration adjustments that Landlord deems necessary or
desirable and to cause the recordation of parcel maps and restrictions, so long
as they do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Tenant or
materially reduce or restrict Tenant's vehicular parking or access. Tenant
shall sign any of the aforementioned documents upon request of Landlord and
failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Lease by Xxxxxx.
37. QUIET POSSESSION. Upon Xxxxxx's paying the Rent, additional rent and other
sums provided hereunder and observing and performing all of the covenants,
conditions and provisions on Tenant's part to be observed and performed
hereunder, Tenant shall have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire
Term hereof, subject to the provisions of this Lease.
38. AUTHORITY. If Tenant is a corporation, trust or partnership, each
individual executing this Lease on behalf of such entity represents and warrants
that he is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of said
entity. If Tenant is a corporation, trust or partnership, Tenant shall, within
thirty (30) days after execution of this Lease, deliver evidence of such
authority satisfactory to Landlord.

allowance (the "Improvement Allowance") in the amount of Two Hundred
Ninety-two Thousand Dollars ($292,000) for the items outlined in Exhibit

alternatively, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the cost of
improvements above the Improvement Allowance. If Tenant does not pay to
Landlord the extra costs above the Improvement Allowance or notify Landlord
of the items to be eliminated within ten (10) days of written notice from
Landlord, Landlord may in its sole discretion eliminate items to bring the
budget within the Improvement Allowance and proceed with the construction
of the Premises and tenant improvements. In no event shall commencement of
Rent be delayed due to any delay in completion of the tenant improvement
items, however, in the event that the office improvements in unit "A" are

day to the Rent shall apply until such office improvements are
substantially complete as evidenced by a certificate of occupancy by the

premises, Tenant is hereby granted the Option to extend the term of this
Lease for an additional three (3) years by giving Landlord written notice
of its election to do so not later than the 57th month of the term of this
Lease. The terms and conditions as contained in this Lease at the time of
