ARTICLE 1
BUILDING, PREMISES AND PROJECT
1.1 Building, Premises and Project. Upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Lease, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the premises set forth in Section 6.3 of the Summary (the “Premises”), which Premises are part of the building commonly known as San Mateo Plaza (the “Building”). The outline of the floor plan of the Premises is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The Building, the Building’s parking area (the “Parking Area”), any outside plaza areas, land and other improvements surrounding the Building which are designated from time to time by Landlord as common areas appurtenant to or servicing the Building, and the land upon which any of the foregoing are situated, are herein collectively referred to as the “Project” Tenant is hereby granted the right to the nonexclusive use of the common corridors and hallways, stairwells, elevators, restrooms and other public or common areas located within the Building, and the non-exclusive use of the areas located on the Project designated by Landlord from time to time as common areas for the Building (the “Common Areas”); provided, however, that (i) the manner in which such public and Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the sole discretion of Landlord, (ii) the use thereof shall be subject to (1) such reasonable and non-discriminatory rules, regulations and restrictions as Landlord may make from time to time and (2) the provisions of any covenants, conditions and restrictions regarding the use thereof, now or hereafter recorded against the Project, and (iii) Tenant may not go on the roof of the Building without Landlord’s prior consent (which may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion) and without otherwise being accompanied by a representative of Landlord. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to use any of the Common Areas, and the roof, risers and conduits of the Building for telecommunications and/or any other purposes, and to do any of the following: (1) make any changes, additions, improvements, repairs and/or replacements in or to the Project or any portion or elements thereof, including, without limitation, expanding or decreasing the size of any Common Areas and other elements thereof; (2) close temporarily any of the Common Areas while engaged in making repairs, improvements or alterations to the Project; (3) retain and/or form a common area association or associations under covenants, conditions and restrictions to own, manage, operate, maintain, repair and/or replace all or any portion of the landscaping, driveways, walkways, public and xxxxxxx xxxxxxx, xxxxxx, xxxxxxxxxx, transportation facilitation areas and/or other common areas located outside of the Building and, subject to Article 4 below, include the common area assessments, fees and taxes charged by the association(s) and the cost of maintaining, managing, administering and operating the association(s), in Operating Expenses or Tax Expenses; and (4) perform such other acts and make such other changes with respect to the Project as Landlord may, in the exercise of good faith business judgment, deem to be appropriate. In connection with any work by Landlord in, and alterations or improvements to the Common Areas, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any material adverse interference with Tenant’s business at the Premises, and any unreasonable interference with Tenant’s access to the Premises, as a result thereof.
1.2 Condition of Premises. Except as expressly set forth in this Lease and in the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B, Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement, remodeling or refurbishment work or services related to the improvement, remodeling or refurbishment of the Premises, and Tenant shall accept the Premises in its “AS IS” condition on the Lease Commencement Date.
1.3 Rentable Square Feet. The parties hereby stipulate that the Building and the Premises contain the rentable square feet set forth in the Summary, and such square footage amount is not subject to adjustment or remeasurement by Landlord or Tenant. Accordingly, there shall be no adjustment in the Base Rent or other amounts set forth in this Lease which are determined based upon the rentable square feet of the Building or the Premises.
ARTICLE 2
LEASE TERM
The terms and provisions of this Lease shall be effective as of the date of this Lease except for the provisions of this Lease relating to the payment of Rent. The term of this Lease (the “Lease Term”) shall
SAN MATEO PLAZA
XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc.
1
be as set forth in Section 7.1 of the Summary and shall commence on the date (the “Lease Commencement Date”) set forth in Section 7.2 of the Summary (subject, however, to the terms of the Tenant Work Letter), and shall terminate on the date (the “Lease Expiration Date”) set forth in Section 7.3 of the Summary, unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Lease Year” shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term, provided that the last Lease Year shall end on the Lease Expiration Date. If Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant Ready for Occupancy (as defined in the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B) on or before the anticipated Lease Commencement Date (as set forth in Section 7.2(ii)(a) of the Summary), Landlord shall not be subject to any liability nor shall the validity of this Lease nor the obligations of Tenant hereunder be affected. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord is unable to tender possession of the Premises on or before July 1, 2008 (subject to delays caused by Tenant Delay, as such term is defined below) following the date hereof (the “Delivery Termination Date”), then Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering to Landlord a written termination notice thereof prior to the date upon which Landlord tenders possession of the Premises. Tenant’s termination notice delivered pursuant to this Article 2 shall be effective thirty (30) days after receipt thereof by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may vitiate Tenant’s termination notice provided to Landlord pursuant to this Article 2 by Landlord tendering possession of the Premises to Tenant prior to the effective date of such termination notice, in which event Tenant’s termination notice shall be null and void and of no further force or effect. The termination right afforded to Tenant under this Article 2 shall be Tenant’s sole remedy for Landlord’s failure to tender possession of the Premises on or before the Delivery Termination Date. Time is of the essence for the delivery of Tenant’s termination notice under this Article 2; accordingly, if Tenant fails to timely deliver any such notice, Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease under this Article 2 shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of the date Tenant fails to timely deliver such termination notice. In the event that the Lease Commencement Date is a date which is other than the anticipated Lease Commencement Date set forth in Section 7.2(ii) of the Summary, within a reasonable period of time after the date Tenant takes possession of the Premises Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an amendment to lease in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, attached hereto, setting forth the Lease Commencement Date and the Lease Expiration Date, and Tenant shall execute and return such amendment to Landlord within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt thereof.
ARTICLE 3
BASE RENT
Tenant shall pay, without notice or demand, to Landlord or Landlord’s agent at the management office of the Project, or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, in currency or a check for currency which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for private or public debts in the United States of America, base rent (“Base Rent”) as set forth in Section 8 of the Summary, payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 8 of the Summary in advance on or before the first day of each and every month during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever. The Base Rent for the first full month of the Lease Term shall be paid at the time of Tenant’s execution of this Lease. If any rental payment date (including the Lease Commencement Date) falls on a day of the month other than the first day of such month or if any rental payment is for a period which is shorter than one month, then the rental for any such fractional month shall be a proportionate amount of a full calendar month’s rental based on the proportion that the number of days in such fractional month bears to the number of days in the calendar month during which such fractional month occurs. All other payments or adjustments required to be made under the terms of this Lease that require proration on a time basis shall be prorated on the same basis. If, at any time, Tenant is in default of any term, condition or provision of this Lease beyond applicable notice and grace periods, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any express or implicit waiver by Landlord of Tenant’s requirement to pay Base Rent during any period of time from and after the Lease Commencement Date shall be null and void and Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord all Base Rent so expressly or implicitly waived by Landlord.
ARTICLE 4
ADDITIONAL RENT
4.1 Additional Rent. In addition to paying the Base Rent specified in Article 3 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay as additional rent the sum of the following: (i) Tenant’s Share (as such term is defined below) of the annual Operating Expenses which are in excess of the amount of Operating Expenses applicable to the Expense Base Year; plus (ii) Tenant’s Share of the annual Tax Expenses which are in excess of the amount of Tax Expenses applicable to the Tax Expense Base Year; plus (iii) Tenant’s Share of the annual Utilities Costs which are in excess of the amount of Utilities Costs applicable to the Utilities Base Year. Such additional rent, together with any and all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease (including, without limitation, pursuant to Article 6), shall be hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Additional Rent.” The Base Rent and Additional Rent are herein collectively referred to as the “Rent.” All amounts due under this Article 4 as Additional Rent
SAN MATEO PLAZA
XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc.

shall be payable for the same periods and in the same mariner, time and place as the Base Rent. Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant which shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term, the obligations of Tenant to pay the Additional Rent provided for in this Article 4 applicable to the period of the Lease Term shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term.
4.2 Definitions. As used in this Article 4, the following terms shall have the meanings hereinafter set forth:
4.2.1 “Calendar Year” shall mean each calendar year in which any portion of the Lease Term falls, through and including the calendar year in which the Lease Term expires.
4.2.2 “Expense Base Year” shall mean the year set forth in Section 9.1, of the Summary.
4.2.3 “Expense Year” shall mean each Calendar Year, provided that Landlord, upon notice to Tenant, may change the Expense Year from time to time to any other twelve (12) consecutive-month period, and, in the event of any such change, Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs shall be equitably adjusted for any Expense Year involved in any such change.
4.2.4 “Operating Expenses” shall mean all expenses, costs and amounts of every kind and nature which Landlord shall pay during any Expense Year because of or in connection with the ownership, management, maintenance, repair, replacement, restoration or operation of the Project, including, without limitation, any amounts paid for: (i) the cost of operating, maintaining, repairing, renovating and managing the utility systems, mechanical systems, sanitary and storm drainage systems, any elevator systems and all other “Systems and Equipment” (as defined in Section 4.2.5 of this Lease), and the cost of supplies and equipment and maintenance and service contracts in connection therewith; (ii) the cost of licenses, certificates, permits and inspections, and the cost of contesting the validity or applicability of any governmental enactments which may affect Operating Expenses, and the costs incurred in connection with implementation and operation of a transportation system management program or similar program; (iii) the cost of insurance carried by Landlord, in such amounts as Landlord may reasonably determine or as may be required by any mortgagees or the lessor of any underlying or ground lease affecting the Project; (iv) the cost of landscaping, relamping, supplies, tools, equipment and materials, and all fees, charges and other costs (including consulting fees, legal fees and accounting fees) incurred in connection with the management, operation, repair and maintenance of the Project; (v) the cost of Parking Area repair, restoration, and maintenance; (vi) any equipment rental agreements or management agreements (including the cost of any management fee not to exceed four percent (4%) of aggregate gross Rent and the fair rental value of any office space provided thereunder); (vii) wages, salaries and other compensation and benefits of all persons engaged in the operation, management, maintenance or security of the Project, and employer’s Social Security taxes, unemployment taxes or insurance, and any other taxes which may be levied on such wages, salaries, compensation and benefits (provided that the foregoing shall apply only to employees at the level of building manager or below); (viii) payments under any easement, license, operating agreement, declaration, restrictive covenant, underlying or ground lease (excluding rent), or instrument pertaining to the sharing of costs by the Project; (ix) the cost of janitorial service, alarm and security service, if any, window cleaning, trash removal, replacement of’ wall and floor coverings, ceiling tiles and fixtures in lobbies, corridors, restrooms and other common or public areas or facilities, maintenance and replacement of curbs and walkways, repair to roofs and re-roofing; (x) amortization (including interest on the unamortized cost) of the cost of acquiring or the rental expense of personal property used in the maintenance, operation and repair of the Project; and (xi) the cost of any capital improvements or other costs (1) which are intended as a labor-saving device or to effect other economies in the operation or maintenance of the Project, (2) made to the Project or any portion thereof after the Lease Commencement Date that are required under any governmental law or regulation, or (3) which are reasonably determined by Landlord to be in the best interests of the Project; provided, however, that if any such cost described in (1), (2) or (3) above, is a capital expenditure, such cost shall be amortized (including interest on the unamortized cost) over its useful life as Landlord shall reasonably determine. If Landlord is not furnishing any particular work or service (the cost of which, if performed by Landlord, would be included in Operating Expenses) to a tenant who has undertaken to perform such work or service in lieu of the performance thereof by Landlord, Operating Expenses shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the additional Operating Expenses which would reasonably have been incurred during such period by Landlord if it had at its own expense furnished such work or service to such tenant. If the Building is less than ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during all or a portion of any Expense Year (including the Expense Base Year), Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment to the variable components of Operating Expenses for such year or applicable portion thereof, employing sound accounting and management principles, to determine the amount of Operating Expenses that would have been paid had the Building been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied; and the amount so determined shall be deemed to have been the amount of Operating Expenses for such year, or applicable portion thereof.
SAN MATEO PLAZA

Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, in its discretion, to equitably allocate some or all of the Operating Expenses (and/or Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs) among different tenants of the Project and/or among other buildings of the Project as and when such other buildings are constructed for purposes of determining Operating Expenses (and/or Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs) and/or the provision of various services and amenities thereto (the “Cost Pools”). Such Cost Pools may include, without limitation, the office space tenants and retail space tenants of the Building and/or any such additional buildings. Such Cost Pools may also include an allocation of certain Operating Expenses (and/or Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs) within or under covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 4, when calculating Operating Expenses for the Expense Base Year, Operating Expenses shall exclude market-wide labor-rate increases due to extraordinary circumstances, including, but not limited to, boycotts and strikes, and costs relating to capital improvements or expenditures; provided, however, to the extent an Operating Expense is incurred during or prior to the Expense Base Year and is excluded from the Expense Base Year pursuant to this sentence, such excluded Operating Expense shall continue to be excluded during any subsequent Expense Year.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operating Expenses shall not, however, include: (A) costs of leasing commissions, advertising and promotional costs, attorneys’ Tees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with negotiations or disputes with present or prospective tenants or other occupants of the Project; (B) costs (including permit, license and inspection costs) incurred in renovating or otherwise improving, decorating or redecorating rentable space for other tenants or vacant rentable space; (C) costs incurred due to the violation by Landlord of the terms and conditions of any lease of space in the Project; (D) costs of overhead or profit increment paid to Landlord or to subsidiaries or affiliates of Landlord for services in or in connection with the Project to the extent the same exceeds the costs of overhead and profit increment included in the costs of such services which could be obtained from third parties on a competitive basis; (E) except as otherwise specifically provided in this Section 4.2.4, costs of interest on debt or amortization on any mortgages, and rent payable under any ground lease affecting the Project; (F) Utilities Costs; (G) Tax Expenses; (H) except as otherwise provided in this Lease, the cost of capital improvements; (I) depreciation (except as to tools and equipment used exclusively in the maintenance of the Project); (J) except as provided in Section 4.2.4(iv), Landlord’s general corporate overhead and general and administrative expenses; (K) penalties or costs incurred directly as a result of Landlord’s gross negligence; (L) reserves for expenses beyond current year anticipated expenses; and (M) costs associated with the investigation and/or remediation of Hazardous Materials (hereafter defined) present in, on or about the Building, unless such costs and expenses are the responsibility of Tenant as provided in Section 5 of this Lease, in which event all such costs and expenses shall be paid solely by Tenant in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.
4.2.5 “Systems and Equipment” shall mean any plant, machinery, transformers, duct work, cable, wires, and other equipment, facilities, and systems designed to supply heat, ventilation, air conditioning and humidity or any other services or utilities, or comprising or serving as any component or portion of the electrical, gas, steam, plumbing, sprinkler, communications, alarm, security, or fire/life safety systems or equipment, or any other mechanical, electrical, electronic, computer or other systems or equipment which serve the Building and/or any other building in the Project in whole or in part.
4.2.6 “Tax Expense Base Year” shall mean the year set forth in Section 9.2 of the Summary.
4.2.7 “Tax Expenses” shall mean all federal, state, county, or local governmental or municipal taxes, fees, assessments, charges or other impositions of every kind and nature, whether general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, (including, without limitation, real estate taxes, general and special assessments, transit assessments, fees and taxes, child care subsidies, fees and/or assessments, job training subsidies, fees and/or assessments, open space fees and/or assessments, housing subsidies and/or housing fund fees or assessments, public art fees and/or assessments, leasehold taxes or taxes based upon the receipt of rent, including gross receipts or sales taxes applicable to the receipt of rent, personal property taxes imposed upon the fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems and equipment, appurtenances, furniture and other personal property used in connection with the Project), which Landlord shall pay during any Expense Year because of or in connection with the ownership, leasing and operation of the Project or Landlord’s interest therein. For purposes of this Lease, Tax Expenses shall be calculated as if the tenant improvements in the Building were fully constructed and the Project, the Building and all tenant improvements in the Building were fully assessed for real estate tax purposes.
4.2.7.1 Tax Expenses shall include, without limitation:
(i) Any tax on Landlord’s rent, right to rent or other income from the Project or as against Landlord’s business of leasing any of the Project;
SAN MATEO PLAZA
XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc.

(ii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in addition to, or in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real property tax, it being acknowledged by Tenant and Landlord that Proposition 13 was adopted by the voters of the State of California in the June 1978 election (“Proposition 13”) and that assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such services as fire protection, street, sidewalk and road maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental services formerly provided without charge to property owners or occupants. It is the intention of Tenant and Landlord that all such new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies, and charges and all similar assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges be included within the definition of Tax Expenses for purposes of this Lease;
(iii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy, or charge allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or the rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any gross income tax upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operating, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof,
(iv) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge, upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises; and
(v) Any reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in attempting to protest, reduce or minimize Tax Expenses.
4.2.7.2 In no event shall Tax Expenses for any Expense Year be less than the Tax Expenses for the Tax Expense Base Year.
4.2.7.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.2.7, there shall be excluded from Tax Expenses (i) all excess profits taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes, taxes payable by Landlord on Landlord’s gross !receipts as a condition to its maintenance of limited liability company status, federal and state net income taxes, and other taxes to the extent applicable to Landlord’s net income (as opposed to rents, receipts or income attributable to operations at the Project), (ii) any items included as Operating Expenses or Utilities Costs, and (iii) any items paid by Tenant under Section 4.4 of this Lease.
4.2.8 “Tenant’s Share” shall mean the percentage set forth in Section 9.4 of the Summary. Tenant’s Share was calculated by dividing the number of rentable square feet of the Premises by the total rentable square feet in the Building (as set forth in Section 9.4 of the Summary), and stating such amount as a percentage. Landlord shall have the right from time to time to redetermine the rentable square feet of the Premises and/or Building, and Tenant’s Share shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any such redetermination; provided that Landlord shall not be entitled to collect additional sums from Tenant based on such a redetermination for periods that precede such redetermination. If Tenant’s Share is adjusted pursuant to the foregoing, as to the Expense Year in which such adjustment occurs, Tenant’s Share for such year shall be determined on the basis of the number of days during such Expense Year that .each such Tenant’s Share was in effect.
4.2.9 “Utilities Base Year” shall mean the year set forth in Section 9.3 of the Summary.
4.2.10 “Utilities Costs” shall mean all actual charges for utilities for the Building and the Project which Landlord shall pay during any Expense Year, including, but not limited to, the costs of water, sewer and electricity, and the costs of HVAC (including, unless paid by Tenant pursuant to Section 6.2 below, the cost of electricity to operate the HVAC air handlers) and other utilities as well as related fees, assessments and surcharges (but excluding those charges for which tenants directly :reimburse Landlord or otherwise pay directly to the utility company). Utilities Costs shall be calculated assuming the Building is at least ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during all or any portion of an Expense Year (including the Utilities Base Year). If, during all or any part of any Expense Year, Landlord shall not provide any utilities (the cost of which, if provided by Landlord, would be included in Utilities Costs) to a tenant (including Tenant) who has undertaken to provide the same instead of Landlord, Utilities Costs shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the additional Utilities Costs which would reasonably have been incurred during such period by Landlord if Landlord had at its own expense provided such utilities to such tenant. Utilities Costs shall include any costs of utilities which are allocated to the Project under any declaration, restrictive covenant, or other instrument pertaining to the sharing of costs by the Project or any portion thereof, including any covenants, conditions or restrictions now or hereafter recorded against or affecting the Project. For purposes of determining Utilities Costs incurred for the Utilities Base Year, Utilities Costs for the Utilities Base Year Shall not include any one time special charges, costs or fees or extraordinary charges or costs incurred in the Utilities Base Year only, including those attributable to boycotts, embargoes, strikes or other

shortages of services or fuel. In addition, if in any Expense Year subsequent to the Utilities Base Year, the amount of Utilities Costs decreases due to a reduction in the cost of providing utilities to the Project for any reason, including without limitation, because of deregulation of the utility industry and/or reduction in rates achieved in contracts with utilities providers, then for purposes of the Expense Year in which such decrease in Utilities Costs occurred and all subsequent Expense Years, the Utilities Costs for the Utilities Base Year shall be decreased by an amount equal to such decrease.
4.3 Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent.
4.3.1 Calculation of Excess. If for any Expense Year ending or commencing within the Lease Term, (i) Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for such Expense Year exceeds Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the Expense Base Year and/or (ii) Tenant’s Share of Tax Expenses for such Expense Year exceeds Tenant’s Share of Tax Expenses for the Tax Expense Base Year, and/or (iii) Tenant’s Share of Utilities Costs for such Expense Year exceeds Tenant’s Share of Utilities Costs for the Utilities Base Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Section 4.3.2, below, and as Additional Rent, an amount equal to such excess (the “Excess”).
4.3.2 Statement of Actual Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs and Payment by Tenant. Landlord shall endeavor to give to Tenant on or before the thirty-first (31st) day of March following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the “Statement”) which shall state the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount, if any, of any Excess. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year ending during the Lease Term, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall pay, with : its next installment of Base Rent due, the full amount of the Excess for such Expense Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as “Estimated Excess,” as that term is defined in Section 4.3.3 of this Lease. 1f any Statement reflects that the amount of Estimated Expenses paid by Tenant to Landlord for such Expense Year is greater than Tenant’s Share of the actual amount of the Operating Expenses for such Expense Year, then Landlord shall credit such overpayment towards Tenant’s future installments of Operating Expenses (or refund such overpayment to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such applicable Statement is delivered to Tenant if delivered after the end of the Lease Term). The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord from enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount as calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3.1 of this Lease within ten (10) business days following Tenant’s receipt of the Statement. The provisions of this Section 4.3.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.
4.3.3 Statement of Estimated Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs. In addition, Landlord shall endeavor to give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the “Estimate Statement”) which shall set forth Landlord’s reasonable estimate (the “Estimate”) of what the total amount of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the estimated Excess (the “Estimated Excess”) as calculated by comparing (i) Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the Expense Base Year, (ii) Tenant’s Share of Tax Expenses, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to Tenant’s Share of Tax Expenses for the Tax Expense Base Year, and (iii) Tenant’s Share of Utilities Costs, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to Tenant’s Share of Utilities Costs for the Utilities Base Year. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Excess under this Article 4. If, pursuant to the Estimate Statement, an Estimated Excess is calculated for the then-current Expense Year, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, a fraction of the Estimated Excess for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4.3.3). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year to the month of such payment, both months inclusive, and shall have twelve (12) as its denominator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord determines that Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses or Utilities Costs for the then current Expense Year is greater than that set forth in the Estimate Statement, then Landlord may deliver a revised Estimate Statement to Tenant at any time during such Expense Year and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within ten (10) days of the delivery of such revised Estimate Statement, the difference between such revised Estimate Statement and the original Estimate Statement for the portion of the then current Expense Year which has then expired, and Tenant shall pay during the balance of such then current Expense Year a fraction of the balance of such difference as would fully amortize such Excess over the remaining months of the then current Expense Year. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished, Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.

4.4 Taxes and Other Charges far Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes or assessments required to be paid by Landlord (except to the extent included in Tax Expenses by Landlord), excluding state, local and federal personal or corporate income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources and estate and inheritance taxes, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties hereto, when:
4.4.1 said taxes are measured by or reasonably attributable to the cost or value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises, or by the cost or value of any leasehold improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, to the extent the cost or value of such leasehold improvements exceeds the cost or value of a building standard build-out as determined by Landlord regardless of whether title to such improvements shall be vested in Tenant or Landlord;
4.4.2 said taxes are assessed upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Project (including the Parking Area); or
4.4.3 said taxes are assessed upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
4.5 Late Charges. If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee by the due date therefor, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount due plus any attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due hereunder. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies hereunder, at law and/or in equity and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord’s remedies in any manner. In addition to the late charge described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid by the date that they are due shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate (the “Interest Rate”) equal to the lesser of (i) the “Prime Rate” or “Reference Rate” announced from time to time by the Bank of America (or such reasonable comparable national banking institution as selected by Landlord in the event Bank of America ceases to exist or publish a Prime Rate or Reference Rate), plus four percent (4%), or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
4.6 Audit. After delivery to Landlord of at least thirty (30) days prior written notice given not later than twelve (12) months following delivery of a Statement, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense through any accountant designated by it, shall have the right to examine and/or audit the books and records evidencing Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utility Costs for the calendar year to which such Statement applies, during Landlord’s reasonable business hours but not more frequently than once during any calendar year. Any such accounting firm designated by Tenant may not be compensated on a contingency fee basis. The results of any such audit (and any negotiations between the parties related thereto) shall be maintained strictly confidential by Tenant and its accounting firm and shall not be disclosed, published or otherwise disseminated to any other party other than to Landlord and its authorized agents unless otherwise required by law. Landlord and Tenant each shall use its best efforts to cooperate in such negotiations and to promptly resolve any discrepancies between Landlord and Tenant in the accounting of such costs and expenses. If through such audit it is determined that there is a discrepancy of more than ten percent (10%) in the amount of Operating Expense, Tax Expense and Utility Cost payments made by Tenant for such calendar year when compared to the actual Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utility Costs for such year, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable accounting costs and expenses incurred by Tenant in performing such audit, including Tenant’s outside auditors or accountants (but excluding Tenant’s in-house personnel). However, if through such audit it is determined that there is a discrepancy of ten percent (10%) or less, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the reasonable accounting costs and expenses associated with Landlord’s outside accounting firms or auditors (but excluding Landlord’s in-house personnel) in connection with such audit.

ARTICLE 8
ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS
8.1 Landlord’s Consent to Alterations. Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively, the “Alterations”) without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion with respect to any Alterations which may affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment or which can be seen from outside the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the installation by Tenant of a Wi-Fi Network shall be governed by the terms of Section 8.3 below. Tenant shall pay for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs and expenses of the Alterations, and shall pay to Landlord a Landlord supervision fee of five percent (5%) of the cost of the Alterations. The construction of the initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense and without Landlord’s written consent, perform interior, non-structural alterations or additions to the Premises provided such alterations or additions do not affect the structural components of the Building or Systems and Equipment or require any permit or roof penetrations and the cost of which does not exceed $10,000 in the aggregate over a 12 month period (the “Permitted Alterations”). Tenant shall first notify Landlord at least fifteen (15) days prior to commencing any Permitted Alterations so that Landlord may post a Notice of Non-Responsibility on the Premises.
8.2 Manner of Construction. Landlord may impose, as a condition of its consent to all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that Tenant utilize for such purposes only contractors, materials, mechanics and materialmen approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, Landlord may impose such requirements as Landlord may determine, in its reasonable discretion, with respect to any work affecting the structural components of the Building or Systems and Equipment (including designating
SAN MATEO PLAZA
XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc.

specific contractors to perform such work at reasonably competitive rates). Tenant shall construct such Alterations and perform such repairs in conformance with any and all applicable rules and regulations of any federal, state, county or municipal code or ordinance and pursuant to a valid building permit (if required for the work in question), issued by the city in which the Project is located, and in conformance with Landlord’s construction rules and regulations and all covenants, conditions and restrictions now or hereafter affecting the Project. Landlord’s approval of the plans, specifications and working drawings for Tenant’s Alterations shall create no responsibility or liability on the part of Landlord for their completeness, design sufficiency, or compliance with all laws, rules and regulations of governmental agencies or authorities. All work with respect to any Alterations must be done in a good and workmanlike manner and diligently prosecuted to completion to the end that the Premises shall at all times be a complete unit except during the period of work. In performing the work of any such Alterations, Tenant shall have the work performed in such manner as not to obstruct access to the Building or Project or the Common Areas for any other tenant of the Project, and as not to obstruct the business of Landlord or other tenants of the Project, or interfere with the labor force working at the Project. if Tenant makes any Alterations, Tenant agrees to carry “Builder’s All Risk” insurance in an amount reasonably approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably require, it being understood and agreed that all of such Alterations shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to Article 10 of this Lease immediately upon completion thereof. In addition, for work costing in excess of $50,000, Landlord may, in its discretion, require Tenant to obtain a lien and completion bond or some alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-obligee. Upon completion of any Alterations (other than Permitted Alterations), Tenant shall (i) cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of the county in which the Project is located in accordance with Section 3093 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, (ii) deliver to the management office of the Project a reproducible copy of the “as built” drawings of the Alterations, and (iii) deliver to Landlord evidence of payment, contractors’ affidavits and full and final waivers of all liens for labor, services or materials.
8.3 Wi-Fi Network. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event Tenant desires to install wireless intranet, Internet or any other wireless data or communications network (“Wi-Fi Network”) in the Premises for the use by Tenant and its employees, then the same shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.3 (in addition to the other provisions of this Article 8). Prior to installation of any Wi-Fi Network, Tenant shall obtain Landlord’s written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event Landlord consents to Tenant’s installation of such Wi-Fi Network, Tenant shall, in accordance with Section 8.4 below, remove the Wi-Fi Network from the Premises prior to the termination of the Lease. Tenant shall use the Wi-Fi Network so as not to cause any interference to other tenants in the Building or to other tenants at the Project or with any other tenant’s communication equipment, and not to damage the Building or Project or interfere with the normal operation of the Building or Project and Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including attorneys’ fees) arising out of Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 8.3, except to the extent same is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord and which is not covered by the insurance carried by Tenant under this Lease (or which would not be covered by the insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease). Should any interference occur, Tenant shall take all necessary steps as soon as reasonably possible and no later than three (3) calendar days following such occurrence to correct such interference. If such interference continues after such three (3) day period, Tenant shall immediately cease operating such Wi-Fi Network until such interference is corrected or remedied to Landlord’s satisfaction. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has granted and/or may grant telecommunication rights to other tenants and occupants of the Building and to telecommunication service providers and in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any interference of the same with such Wi-Fi Network.

Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award or payment in connection therewith, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant’s personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claim does not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Project or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination, or the date of such taking, whichever shall first occur. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs shall be proportionately abated. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
14.1 Transfers. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit any assignment or other such foregoing transfer of this Lease or any interest hereunder by operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of the Premises by any persons other than Tenant and its employees (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as “Transfers” and any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a “Transferee”). If Tenant shall desire Landlord’s consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the “Transfer Notice”) shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the Transfer, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice, (ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the “Subject Space”), (iii) all of the terms of the proposed Transfer, the name and address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer, including all existing operative documents to be executed to evidence such Transfer or the agreements incidental or related to such Transfer, (iv) current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer, partner or owner thereof, and (v) such other information as Landlord may reasonably require. Any Transfer made without Landlord’s prior written consent shall, at Landlord’s option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. Each time Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to a proposed Transfer, whether or not Landlord shall grant consent, within thirty (30) days after written request by Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, Tenant shall pay to Landlord One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) to reimburse Landlord for its review and processing fees, and Tenant shall also reimburse Landlord for any reasonable legal fees incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s proposed Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 14.1, so long as Tenant delivers to Landlord (a) at least fifteen (15) business days prior written notice of its intention to assign or sublease the Premises to any Related Entity, which notice shall set forth the name of the Related Entity, (b) in the case of an assignment or sublease to a Related Entity, a copy of the proposed agreement pursuant to which such assignment or sublease shall be effectuated, and (c) such other information concerning the Related Entity as Landlord may reasonably require, including without limitation, information regarding any change in the proposed use of any portion of the Premises and any financial information with respect to such Related Entity, and so long as (1) any change in the proposed use of the subject portion of the Premises is in conformance with the uses permitted to be made under this Lease and do not involve the use or storage of any Hazardous Materials (other than nominal amounts of ordinary household cleaners, office supplies and janitorial supplies which are not regulated by any environmental laws), and (2) at the time of the proposed assignment or sublease, the net profits and financial condition of the Related Entity is substantially the same as Tenant as of the date of this Lease (as reasonably determined by Landlord), then Tenant may, without the necessity for Landlord’s prior consent and without triggering Landlord’s recapture right set forth in Section 14.4 below, assign this Lease or sublease any portion of the Premises (A) to any Related Entity, or (B) in connection with any merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all of the assets of Tenant (each such transfer shall be referred to herein as a “Permitted Transfer”). For purposes of this Section 14.1, the term “Related Entity” shall mean any entity controlled by, under control with, or in control of Tenant and such entity shall have at least substantially the same net worth as Tenant. The term “control” as used in the immediately preceding sentence shall mean having direct ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the ownership interests of an entity and having the ability to direct the management and policies of such entity. In the event of a Permitted Transfer, the assignee or sublessee pursuant to such Permitted Transfer shall be referred to herein as a “Permitted Transferee”. Any Permitted Transfer shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability Tenant may have under this Lease and such assignee or sublessee shall be jointly and severally liable with Tenant hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Tenant desires to sublease that portion of the Premises containing approximately 10,000 square feet of space and commonly known as Suite 250 (the “Initial Sublease Space”), as more particularly shown on Exhibit A
SAN MATEO PLAZA
XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc.

attached hereto, any such sublease shall be subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Article 14; provided, however, with respect to a sublease during the first twenty-four (24) months of the Term of any portion of the Initial Sublease Space only, (w) Landlord shall not have the rights set forth in Section i 4.4 below, (x) Tenant shall not be required to pay Landlord for any internal review or processing ‘fees, but Tenant shall remained obligated to reimburse Landlord for reasonable legal fees incurred in connection therewith, (y) Landlord shall not be permitted to consider a sublessee’s financial worth or stability as set forth in Section 14.2.5 below and (z) Tenant shall not be required to provide Landlord with additional information pursuant to Section 14.1(v) above. From and after the twenty-fourth (24th) month of the Term, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.2.5 below, in evaluating the financial worth and stability of a sublessee of the Initial Sublease Space, Landlord shall evaluate such financial strength based upon such sublessee’s ability to perform its obligations under its sublease for the Initial Sublease Space.
14.2 Landlord’s Consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice.

14.2.6 The proposed Transfer would cause Landlord to be in violation of another lease or agreement to which Landlord is a party, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease;
14.2.7 The terms of the proposed Transfer will allow the Transferee to exercise a right of renewal, right of expansion, right of first offer, or other similar right held by Tenant (or will allow the Transferee to occupy space leased by Tenant pursuant to any such right); or
14.2.8 Either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee, (i) occupies space in the Project at the time of the request for consent, (ii) is negotiating with Landlord to lease space in the Project at such time, or (iii) has negotiated with Landlord during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Transfer Notice; provided, however, it shall not he reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to a proposed Transfer based upon this Section 14.2.8 if, at the time of the proposed Transfer, there is no Reasonably Comparable vacant space in the Building. As used herein. “Reasonably Comparable” shall mean vacant space that is similar in size, layout, location and configuration to the space that Tenant proposes to assign or sublease.

14.3 Transfer Premium. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto, which the parties hereby agree is reasonable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord seventy-five percent (75%) of any “Transfer Premium,” as that term is defined in this Section 14.3, received by Tenant from such `Transferee. “Transfer Premium” shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by such Transferee in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease on a per

Such recapture notice shall cancel and terminate this Lease with respect to the Subject Space as of the effective termination date stated in the recapture notice. If this Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent reserved herein shall be prorated on the basis of the number of rentable square feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of rentable square feet contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same. If Landlord declines, or fails to elect in a timely manner to recapture the Subject Space under this Section 14.4, then, provided Landlord has consented to the proposed Transfer, Tenant shall be entitled to proceed to transfer the Subject Space to the proposed Transferee, subject to provisions of the last paragraph of Section 14.2 of this Lease.
14.5 Effect of Transfer. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the terms and conditions of this Lease shall in no way be deemed to have been waived or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, promptly after execution, a fully-executed copy of all documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and (iv) no Transfer relating to this Lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto, whether with or without Landlord’s consent, shall relieve Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease from liability under this Lease. Landlord or its authorized representatives shall have the right at all reasonable times to audit the books, records and papers of Tenant relating to any Transfer, and shall have the right to make copies thereof. If the Transfer Premium respecting any Transfer shall be found understated, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after demand, pay the deficiency and Landlord’s costs of such audit.

ARTICLE 15
SURRENDER; OWNERSHIP AND REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES
15.1 Surrender of Premises. No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically acknowledged in a writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of keys to the Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or subtenancies affecting the Premises.
15.2 Removal of Tenant Property by Tenant. Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Tenant took possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or

termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to he removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, free-standing cabinet work, and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and Cabling (as defined below), wiring or conduit (including any such Cabling or wiring associated with the Wi-Fi Network, if any) which may have been placed at the Project or within the Building by or on behalf of Tenant, and such similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal.
15.3 Cabling. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant shall, prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, at Tenant’s expense and in compliance with the National Electric Code and other applicable laws, remove all electronic, fiber, phone and data cabling and related equipment that has been installed by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant in or around the Premises (collectively, the “Cabling”); provided, however, Tenant shall not remove such Cabling if Tenant receives a written notice from Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Term of this Lease authorizing such Cabling to remain in place, in which event the Cabling shall be surrendered with the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
ARTICLE 16
HOLDING OVER
If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term hereof, with or without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such case Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate equal to the greater of (i) one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease, and (ii) the fair market rental rate of the Premises as of the commencement of such holdover period. Such month-to-month tenancy shall be subject to every other term, covenant and agreement contained herein. Landlord hereby expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender, and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.
ARTICLE 17
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Within ten (10) business days following a request in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be in the form as may be required by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Project (or any portion thereof), indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. Failure of Tenant to timely execute and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments shall estop Tenant from asserting as against anyone to whom the estoppel was addressed anything that is contrary to the statements included in the estoppel certificate. Failure by Tenant to timely deliver such estoppel certificate shall be a material default of the provisions of this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall be liable to - Landlord, and shall indemnify Landlord from and against any loss, cost, damage or expense, incidental, consequential, or otherwise, including attorneys’ fees, arising or accruing directly or indirectly, from any failure of Tenant to execute or deliver to Landlord any such estoppel certificate.
ARTICLE 18
SUBORDINATION
This Lease is subject and subordinate to all present and future ground or underlying leases of the Project and to the lien of any mortgages or trust deeds, now or hereafter in force against the Project, if any, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages or trust deeds, or the lessors under such ground lease or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto. Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any

19
proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage, or if any ground or underlying lease is terminated, to attorn, without any deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure sale, or to the lessor of such ground or underlying lease, as the case may be, if so requested to do so by such purchaser or lessor and to recognize such purchaser or lessor as the lessor under this Lease. Tenant shall, within five (5) days of request by Landlord, execute such further instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any such mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases. Tenant hereby irrevocably authorizes Landlord to execute and deliver in the name of Tenant any such instrument or instruments if Tenant fails to do so, provided that such authorization shall in no way relieve Tenant from the obligation of executing such instruments of subordination or superiority. Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subordination of this Lease to any future ground or underlying lease of the Project or to any future lien of any mortgage or deed of trust is conditioned upon the rights of Tenant under the Lease not being disturbed by any termination of such lease or foreclosure of such mortgage or deed of trust so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder beyond applicable notice and cure periods. Following the parties’ execution of this Lease, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain for the benefit of Tenant, a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement from the mortgagee under the existing deed of trust on the Project in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.

TENANT’S DEFAULTS; LANDLORD’S REMEDIES
19.1 Events of Default by Tenant. All covenants and agreements to be kept or performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default of this Lease by Tenant:
19.1.1 Any failure by Tenant to pay any Rent or any other charge required to be paid under this Lease, or any part thereof, when due; or
19.1.2 Any failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other provision, covenant or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant where such failure continues for twenty (20) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 or any similar or successor law; and provided further that if the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within a twenty (20) day period, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if it diligently commences such cure within such period and thereafter diligently proceeds to rectify and cure said default as soon as possible;
19.1.3 The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant. Abandonment is herein defined to include, but is not limited to, any absence by Tenant from the Premises for three (3) business days or longer while in default of any provision of this Lease; or
19.1.4 The making of a general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, the filing of a voluntary petition by Tenant or the filing of an involuntary petition by any of Tenant’s creditors seeking the rehabilitation, liquidation, or reorganization of Tenant under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors and, in the case of an involuntary action, the failure to remove or discharge the same within sixty (60) days of such filing, the appointment of a receiver or other custodian to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or this leasehold, Tenant’s insolvency or inability to pay Tenant’s debts or failure generally to pay Tenant’s debts when due, any court entering a decree or order directing the winding up or liquidation of Tenant or of substantially all of Tenant’s assets, Tenant taking any action toward the dissolution or winding up of Tenant’s affairs, the cessation or suspension of Tenant’s use of the Premises, or the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or this leasehold.

Upon the occurrence of any such default by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever.
19.2.1 Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in Rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part

thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim or damages therefor; and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:
(i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) Any other amount necessary 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 of things would be likely to result therefrom, specifically including but not limited to, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant, including, without limitation, any rent abatement; and
(v) At Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in Sections 19.2.1(i) and 19.2.1(ii), above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate set forth in Section 4.5 of this Lease. As used in Section 19.2.1(iii) above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
19.2.2 Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all Rent as it becomes due.
19.2.3 Landlord shall have the immediate right of re-entry without terminating this Lease, and if this right of re-entry is exercised following abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, Landlord may consider any of Tenant’s equipment, trade fixtures, Cabling, furnishings, inventories, goods and personal property left on the Premises to also have been abandoned. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section 19.2 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant.
19.2.4 Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform or otherwise cure any such obligation, provision, covenant or condition on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed (and may enter the Premises for such purposes). In the event of Tenant’s failure to perform any of its obligations or covenants under this Lease, and such failure to perform poses a material risk of injury or harm to persons or damage to or loss of property, then Landlord shall have the right to cure or otherwise perform such covenant or obligation at any time after such failure to perform by Tenant, whether or not any such notice or cure period set forth in Section 19.1 above has expired. Any such actions undertaken by Landlord pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 19.2.4 shall not be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s rights and remedies as a result of Tenant’s failure to perform and shall not release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease. Tenant waives redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1174 and 1179 (or any successor or substitute statute), or under any other present or future law, in the event Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes possession of the Premises by reason of any default of Tenant hereunder. Tenant hereby waives for Tenant and for all those claiming under Tenant all rights now or hereafter existing to redeem by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, Tenant’s right of occupancy of the Premises after any termination of this Lease.
19.3 Payment by Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within fifteen (15) days after delivery by Landlord to Tenant of statements therefor: (i) sums equal to expenditures reasonably made and obligations incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s performance or cure of any of Tenant’s obligations pursuant to the provisions of Section 19.2.4 above; and (ii) sums equal to all expenditures made and obligations incurred by Landlord in collecting or attempting to collect the Rent or in enforcing or attempting to enforce any rights of Landlord under this Lease or pursuant to law, including, without limitation, all legal fees and other amounts so expended. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 19.3 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.

19.4 Sublessees of Tenant. Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant that has not been cured within the acceptable cure period, as set forth in this Article 19, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord’s sole discretion, succeed to Tenant’s interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements. In the event of Landlord’s election to succeed to Tenant’s interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.
19.5 Waiver of Default. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach by Tenant of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other or later violation or breach by Tenant of the same or any other of the terms, provisions, and covenants herein contained. Forbearance by Landlord in enforcement of one or more of the remedies herein provided upon a default by Tenant shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default. The acceptance of any Rent hereunder by Landlord following the occurrence of any default, whether or not known to Landlord, shall not be deemed a waiver of any such default, except only a default in the payment of the Rent so accepted.
19.6 Efforts to Relet. For the purposes of this Article 19, Tenant’s right to possession shall not be deemed to have been terminated by efforts of Landlord to relet the Premises, by its acts of maintenance or preservation with respect to the Premises, or by appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord’s interests hereunder. The foregoing enumeration is not exhaustive, but merely illustrative of acts which may be performed by Landlord without terminating Tenant’s right to possession.
ARTICLE 20
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Concurrent with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) in the amount set forth in Section 10 of the Summary. So long as Tenant has not been in default of this Lease beyond its applicable sure period for any such default, and Tenant provides Landlord with satisfactory evidence that Tenant’s financial condition and profitability are at least equal to Tenant’s financial condition and profitability as of the Lease execution date, as reasonably determined by Landlord, then on the date which is thirteen (13) months after the date that Tenant actually commenced the payment of monthly Base Rent under this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to request that Landlord reduce the Security Deposit to One Hundred Sixty Thousand Seven Hundred Twenty-Five and 84/100 Dollars ($160,725.84). The amount by which the Security Deposit shall be reduced pursuant to the foregoing sentence, $321,451.08, shall be applied by Landlord towards Tenant’s installments of Base Rent as the same then become due. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant during the Lease Term. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any amount that Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount, and Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a default under this Lease. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit, or any balance thereof, shall be returned to Tenant, or, at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder, within sixty (60) days following the expiration of the Lease Term. Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in force, which provide that Landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by Tenant or to clean the Premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage, foreseeable or unforeseeable, caused by the act or omission of Tenant or any officer, employee, agent or invitee of Tenant.
ARTICLE 21
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated. At its sole cost and expense, Tenant
SAN MATEO PLAZA
XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc.
22
shall promptly comply with all such governmental measures, other than the making of structural changes or changes to the Building’s life safety system (collectively the “Excluded Changes”) except to the extent such Excluded Changes are required due to Tenant’s Alterations to or unique manner of use of the Premises (as distinguished from general office use). In addition, Tenant shall fully comply with all present or future programs intended to manage parking, transportation or traffic in and around the Project, and in connection therewith, Tenant shall take responsible action for the transportation planning and management of all employees located at the Premises by working directly with Landlord, any governmental transportation management organization or any other transportation-related committees or entities. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.
ARTICLE 22
ENTRY BY LANDLORD
Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to Tenant (which, in the absence of an emergency, shall not be less than twenty-four (24) hours) to enter the Premises to: (i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or tenants, or to the ground or underlying lessors; (iii) to post notices of nonresponsibility; or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the Building if necessary to comply with current building codes or other applicable laws, or for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building, or as Landlord may otherwise reasonably desire or deem necessary; provided, however. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any unreasonable interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises as a result of any entry by Landlord permitted under this Article 22. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 22, Landlord may enter the Premises at any time, without notice to Tenant, in emergency situations and/or to perform janitorial or other services required of Landlord pursuant to this Lease. Any such entries shall be without the abatement of Rent and shall include the right to take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes. Tenant hereby waives any claims for damages or for any injuries or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant. In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to enter without notice and use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises.
ARTICLE 23
TENANT PARKING
Subject to the terms of this Article 23, Tenant shall be entitled to use, on an unassigned, unreserved and first come, first served basis, the number of parking spaces set forth in Section 12 of the Summary, which parking spaces are located in the Parking Area. The Parking Area shall be for passenger vehicles only and shall be in parking areas designated by Landlord. During the initial Term of this Lease, Tenant’s parking in the Parking Area shall be free of charge. Tenant’s continued right to use the Parking Area is conditioned upon (i) Tenant abiding by (1) all non-discriminatory rules and regulations which are prescribed by Landlord from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the Parking Area, and (2) all recorded covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project, and (ii) Tenant’s cooperation in seeing that Tenant’s employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations and covenants, conditions and restrictions. In addition, Landlord may assign any parking spaces and/or make all or a portion of such spaces reserved or institute an attendant-assisted tandem parking program and/or valet parking program if Landlord determines in its reasonable discretion that such is necessary or desirable for orderly and efficient parking. Landlord specifically reserves the right, from time to time, to change the size, configuration, design, layout, location and all other aspects of the Parking Area, and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord, from time to time, may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease temporarily close-off or restrict access to the Parking Area, or temporarily relocate parking to other parking structures and/or surface parking areas within a reasonable distance from the Parking Area, for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements or to accommodate or facilitate renovation, alteration, construction or other modification of other improvements or structures located on the Project. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to Landlord. Any parking rates charged by Landlord during any renewal or extension of the Term shall be exclusive of any parking tax or other charges imposed by governmental authorities in connection with the use of such parking, which taxes and/or charges shall be paid directly by Tenant or the parking users, or, if directly imposed against Landlord,
SAN MATEO PLAZA
XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc.
23
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all such taxes and/or charges within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of the invoice from Landlord. The rights of Tenant to park in the Parking Area may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant to other than approved Transferees or Permitted Transferees without Landlord’s prior written approval.

24.4 Modification of Lease. Should any current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor for the Project require a modification or modifications of this Lease, which modification or modifications will not cause an increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way materially and adversely change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, then and in such event, Tenant agrees that this Lease may be so modified and agrees to execute whatever documents are required therefor and deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) business days following the request therefor. Should Landlord or any such current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor require execution of a short form of Lease for recording, containing, among other customary provisions, the names of the parties, a description of the Premises and the Lease Term, Tenant agrees to execute such short form of Lease and to deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) days following the request therefor.

Tenant further acknowledges that Landlord may assign its interest in this Lease to a mortgage lender as additional security and agrees that such an assignment shall not release Landlord from its obligations hereunder and that Tenant shall continue to look to Landlord for the performance of its obligations hereunder.
24.6 Prohibition Against Recording. Except as provided in Section 24.4 of this Lease, neither this Lease, nor any memorandum, affidavit or other writing with respect thereto, shall be recorded by Tenant or by anyone acting through, under or on behalf of Tenant, and the recording thereof in violation of this provision shall make this Lease null and void at Landlord’s election.

Tenant’s Right of First Offer, as granted herein, is subject to the following conditions:
i. The Right of First Offer to the Expansion Space shall be subject to the rights and options of the existing tenants (together with their successors and assigns) presently occupying the Building pursuant to the terms and provisions of such existing tenants’ leases, as such leases may be later modified, amended or extended;
ii. The Right of First Offer to any of the Expansion Space shall be void if Tenant has been in default under the Lease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods at any time during the Term or is in default of any provision of the Lease on the date Tenant delivers an Election Notice (as defined below);

The parties shall have ten (10) business days after Landlord receives the Election Notice for the subject Expansion Space(s) and the non-refundable deposit therefor from Tenant in which to execute an amendment to the Lease setting forth the agreed-upon terms for such subject Expansion Space(s). Upon full execution of an amendment for the subject Expansion Space(s), the non-refundable deposit shall be credited toward Base Rent for the subject Expansion Space(s), or utilized as part of any increase in the Security Deposit, as agreed between the parties. If Tenant fails to timely execute and deliver such amendment, Landlord shall retain the non-refundable deposit and Tenant shall have no rights, title or interest therein.
This Right of First Offer shall terminate and he of no force or effect if, at any time, Tenant has been in default of the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or agreements to be performed under this

ADDENDUM 2 | XxxxXxxxx.xxx, Inc. | |||

Lease beyond any notice and cure period or Tenant is in default of any terms of this Lease at the time of delivery of an Election Notice; or the Premises are being subleased (except to a Related Entity) at the time of this Right of First Offer for any of the Expansion Space is offered to Tenant.
