A. Spectrum Xxxxxx Street, LLC, a California limited liability company, and Spectrum Xxxxxxx Plaza, LLC, a California limited liability company, as tenants-in-common (collectively, "Original Landlord"), and Tenant entered into that certain Office Lease, dated as of October 15, 2004 (the "Lease"), whereby Tenant leased certain office space in the building located at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx. Landlord is successor-in-interest to Original Landlord.
B. By this Amendment, Landlord and Tenant desire to expand the Existing Premises (as defined below) and to otherwise modify the Lease as provided herein,
C. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms as used herein shall have the same meanings as given thereto in the Lease.
1. The Existing Premises. Landlord currently leases to Tenant that certain office space in the Building containing 31,136 rentable square feet located on the third (3rd) and fourth (4th) floors of the Building and known as Suites 300 and 450 (the "Existing Premises").
2. Expansion of the Existing Premises. That certain space located on the second (2nd) floor of the Building and known as Suite 220 outlined on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and made a part hereof, is referred herein as the "First Expansion Space." Landlord and Tenant stipulate that the First Expansion Space contains 2,827 rentable square feet. Effective as of the date ("First Expansion Commencement Date") that is the later of (i) the date Landlord obtains possession of the First Expansion Space from the Current Tenant (as defined in Section 15 below), and (ii) March 1, 2006, Tenant shall lease the First Expansion Space; provided, however, if the First Expansion Commencement Date has not occurred by June 1, 2006, Tenant shall have the right, upon written notice to Landlord delivered any time after June 1, 2006 until the date Landlord delivers the First Expansion Space to Tenant, to terminate the Lease with respect to the First Expansion Space only. Accordingly, effective upon the First Expansion Space. Such addition of the First Expansion Space to the Existing Premises shall, effective as of the First Expansion Commencement Date, increase the number of rentable square feet leased by Tenant in the Building to a total of 33,963 rentable square feet. Effective as of the First Expansion Commencement Date, all references to the "Premises" shall mean and refer to the Existing Premises as expanded by the First Expansion Space.
3. Term and Monthly Basic Rent for the First Expansion Space. The term for Tenant's lease of the First Expansion Space ("First Expansion Space Term") shall commence on the First Expansion Commencement Date and shall expire co-terminously with Tenant's lease of the Existing Premises on
August 31, 2012 ("Expiration Date"). During the First Expansion Space Term, Tenant shall pay Monthly Basic Rent for the First Expansion Space as follows:
Months of First Expansion Space Term |
Monthly Basic Rent |
Monthly Basic Rent per Rentable Square Foot |

1-12* | $ | 6,643.45 | $ | 2.35 | ||
13-24 | $ | 6,841.34 | $ | 2.42 | ||
25-36 | $ | 7,039.23 | $ | 2.49 | ||
37-48 | $ | 7,265.39 | $ | 2.57 | ||
49-60 | $ | 7,463.28 | $ | 2.64 | ||

* Plus any partial month if the First Expansion Commencement Date is not the first day of the month.
Monthly Basic Rent for Existing Premises shall continue to be payable in accordance with the provisions of the Lease. Although Monthly Basic Rent for the Existing Premises shall be calculated separately from the Monthly Basic Rent for the First Expansion Space, Monthly Basic Rent for the entire Premises shall be a single, non-severable obligation.
4. Tenant's Percentage and Base Year. During the First Expansion Space Term, Tenant's Percentage of any increase in Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs for the First Expansion Space only shall be two point sixty-nine percent (2.69%). The Base Year for the First Expansion Space only shall be the calendar year 2006.
5. Tenant Improvements. Except as specifically set forth in this Section 5, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the first Expansion Space or the Existing Premises. Tenant also acknowledges that Landlord has made no representation or warranty regarding the condition of the First Expansion Space or the Existing Premises. Within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the thirty-sixth (36th) full month of the First Expansion Space Term, Tenant shall have the right to deliver written notice to Landlord requiring Landlord to, at a mutually convenient time to be agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant, at Landlord's sole cost and expense and using Building-standard materials only, (i) repaint all painted walls within the First Expansion Space, and (ii) recarpet all carpeted areas within the First Expansion Space (the "First Expansion Space Work"). If Tenant fails to deliver such notice within such sixty (60) day period, Landlord shall have no obligation to perform the First Expansion Space Work. If Tenant timely delivers such notice, Tenant hereby acknowledges that Landlord will be performing the First Expansion Space Work during the First Expansion Space Term, and Landlord's performance of the First Expansion Space Work shall not be deemed a constructive eviction of Tenant, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any abatement of rent connection therewith, nor liable for any injury or damage to person, property or business.
6. Early Entry. Tenant shall have the right to enter the First Expansion Space at any time during normal business hours no earlier than fifteen (15) days prior to the First Expansion Commencement Date solely for the purpose of installing furniture, fixtures and equipment, and all terms and conditions of the Lease shall apply to such entry other than the payment of Monthly Basic Rent.
7. Parking. During the First Space Expansion Term, Tenant shall have the right to an additional ten (10) unreserved parking spaces for use in the Building's parking facility, which shall be free of charge during the First Expansion Space Term only. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to convert up to two (2) of such additional unreserved parking spaces to covered reserved
2
parking spaces on a month to month basis at a cost of $12.50 per covered reserved space per month. Within sixty (60) days of the First Expansion Commencement Date, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of the number of such additional unreserved parking spaces that Tenant desires to convert to covered reserved parking spaces. If Landlord has not received notice of the number of reserved spaces which Tenant will lease by the expiration of such sixty (60) day period, or if Tenant elects to convert less than two (2) of such additional unreserved parking spaces to covered, reserved parking spaces, Landlord, at its discretion, shall have the right to lease such covered, reserved parking spaces to any party Landlord desires. Tenant's rental and use of such additional parking spaces shall be in accordance with, and subject to, all provisions of Section 6.2 of the Lease including, without limitation, payment of the monthly parking rate specified therein.
8. Security Deposit. Tenant has previously deposited with Landlord Seventy Thousand Two Hundred Eleven and 68/100 Dollars ($70,211.68) as a Security Deposit under the Lease. Concurrently with Tenant's execution of this Amendment, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord an additional Seven Thousand Nine Hundred Forty-Three and 87/100 Dollars ($7,943.87), for a total Security Deposit under the Lease, of Seventy-Eight Thousand One Hundred Fifty-Five and 55/100 Dollars ($78,155.55). Landlord shall continue to hold the Security Deposit as increased herein in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 5 of the Lease.
9. Directory Signage. Effective as of the First Expansion Commencement Date, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to one (1) additional line on the Building's directory sign.
10. Brokers. Each party represents and warrants to the other that no broker, agent or finder other than Tiarna Real Estate Services, Inc. and Xxxxxxx (collectively, the "Brokers") negotiated or was instrumental in negotiating or consummating this Amendment. Each party further agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any claim for commission or finder's fee by any person or entity, other than Brokers, who claims or alleges that they were retained or engaged by the indemnifying party or at the request of such party in connection with this Amendment.
11. Defaults. Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that, as of the date of this Amendment, Tenant is in full compliance with all terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease and that there are no breaches or defaults under the Lease by Landlord or Tenant, and that Tenant knows of no events or circumstances which, given the passage of time, would constitute a default under the Lease by either Landlord or Tenant.
12. Signing Authority. Each person executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants that he/she is authorized to do so.
13. No Further Modification. Except as set forth in this Amendment, all of the terms and provisions of the Lease shall apply with respect to the First Expansion Space and shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. Effective as of the date hereof, all references to the "Lease" shall refer to the Lease as amended by this Amendment.
14. Counterparts and Fax Signatures. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but such counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. This Amendment may be executed by a party's signature transmitted by facsimile ("fax"), and copies of this Amendment executed and delivered by means of faxed signatures shall have the same force and effect as copies hereof executed and delivered with original signatures. All parties hereto may rely upon faxed signatures as if such signatures were originals. Any party executing and delivering this Amendment by fax shall promptly thereafter deliver a counterpart signature page of this Amendment containing said party's original signature. All parties hereto agree that a faxed signature page may be introduced into evidence in any proceeding arising out of or related to this Amendment as if it were an original signature page.

15. Contingency. Notwithstanding anything in this Amendment to the contrary, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the rights and obligations of Landlord under this Amendment are expressly conditioned upon Landlord and the tenant that currently leases the First Expansion Space as of the date hereof (the "Current Tenant"), entering into a termination agreement upon terms acceptable to Landlord in its sole but good faith discretion and the Current Tenant vacating the First Expansion Space when and as required by Landlord in accordance with such termination agreement (collectively, the "Contingency"). If the Contingency is not satisfied then this Amendment shall, at Landlord's option and upon written notice, be null and void and of no force or effect.
