Lease.
Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord,

certain premises (the “Premises”) shown on the drawings attached hereto as
Exhibit
A,

are commonly described as 0000 X. Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx #0000, Xxxxxxxxx, XX
00000,
consisting of approximately Four Thousand One Hundred Forty Four (4,144)
square
feet of Usable Space (“Estimated Usable Space”) and approximately Four Thousand
Five Hundred Sixty (4,560) square feet of Actual Space (“Estimated Actual
Space”). The building in which the Premises are located (the “Building”),
consists of Four Thousand Five Hundred Sixty (4,560) square feet of Actual
Space
(the “Building Actual Space”), and is located on the property legally described
as set forth on Exhibit
B,
which
is incorporated herein (the “Property,” and together with the Building and the
other structures thereon, the “Project”).
Notwithstanding
the above, Landlord’s Architect shall determine the exact amount of “Usable
Space” and “Actual Space.” Landlord shall send written notice thereof to Tenant
on or before the tenth (10th)
day
following Landlord’s receipt of such determination from Landlord’s Architect or,
if later, the tenth (10th)
day
following Landlord’s receipt of written notice from Tenant that all the demising
walls for the Premises have been installed. The amount of Actual Space as
finally determined by Landlord’s Architect pursuant to this Section 1.1 shall
bind the parties hereto for all purposes hereof and shall be calculated using
measurements that, for exterior walls, begin at the outer most concrete
foundation or the outermost architectural engagement (i.e.,
the
drip line), which ever is further; and for interior demising wall(s), begin
at
the center thereof.
Tenant
hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Rentable Space will be calculated
by
multiplying the Actual Space by a load factor of Zero Percent (0%) (which
equals
Zero (0) square feet) and adding the product of that mathematical function
to
the Actual Space. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that such load factor is
applied to the Actual Space to
reflect Tenant’s share of the Common Areas (defined below) located inside the
Building, which are measured using the criteria set forth in the preceding
paragraph and which include, without limitation, lobbies, corridors, mechanical,
utility, janitorial, boiler and service rooms and closets, restrooms, elevators
and elevator shafts, and other public, common, and service areas of the
Building.
Tenant
acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord makes any express
or implied representation, warranty or guarantee with respect to the any
of the
Tenant Improvements whatsoever, including without limitation, any
representation, warranty or guarantee with respect to the suitability or
fitness
of the Tenant Improvements for the Use.

(d)
builder's
risk insurance on a non-reporting, completed value basis, insuring against
property damage and loss during construction of the Tenant Improvements;
and
shall
be
approved in writing by Landlord, which approval may be withheld in Landlord’s
sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding such pre-approval, Tenant may
request in writing that Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, approve
Tenant’s use of another contractor meeting the criteria set forth above in this
Section 3.2.
Subject
to the terms of this Section 3.2, Landlord
shall provide Tenant a tenant improvement allowance (the “Allowance”) of Zero
Dollars ($0.00) per square foot of Usable Space, which is estimated to be
Zero
Dollars ($0.00) based on the Estimated Usable Space, which shall be increased
or
decreased based on the final determination of Usable Space (as finally
determined by Landlord’s Architect under Section 1.1 of this Lease). Prior to
Tenant commencing the construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall,
as
a condition precedent to receiving any portion of the Allowance, deposit
with
Landlord all the funds that are, under the construction contract that Tenant
executes with its contractor (which contractor shall have been approved by
Landlord as provided in this Lease) for the construction of such Tenant
Improvements in excess of the Allowance (the “Tenant’s Contribution”) in the
form of a cashier’s check or other immediately available funds. Upon Tenant
making the Tenant Contribution, Landlord shall, in Landlord’s discretion either:
(a) retain the Allowance and disburse the same to Tenant’s contractor from
time to time as the construction of the Tenant Improvements are completed,
in
which case Tenant shall pay Landlord a construction fund control fee equal
to
Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00); or (b) deposit the same with a third party
voucher control system company selected by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole
discretion, in which case Tenant shall contribute the Tenant’s Contribution with
such third party voucher control system company, and all the direct and indirect
costs of such third party voucher control system company shall be paid by
Tenant.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the Allowance shall only
be
used for the design, purchase, installation and construction of Tenant
Improvements that constitute permanent improvements to the Premises and no
portion of the Allowance shall be used for furniture, fixtures, or equipment,
all of which shall be the sole responsibility and cost of Tenant. In the
event a
Tenant Contribution is made as provided in this Section 3.2, then the Tenant’s
Contribution shall be applied towards the payment of the Tenant Improvements
before any portion of the Allowance is so applied. In the event any portion
of
the Allowance is not applied towards the payment of the Tenant Improvements,
then the leftover portion of the Allowance shall be returned to Landlord.
No
portion of the unused Allowance shall be applied, paid, or otherwise credited
to
Tenant whatsoever, including, without limitation, as a credit against rent
to be
paid hereunder. In addition, the Allowance must be used, if at all, within
five
(5) months following the Effective Date and, if not so used by Tenant within
such five (5) month period, then Tenant shall forfeit its rights to the
Allowance and have no further rights with respect thereto
whatsoever.
3.3
Acceptance
of Premises.
On the
date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant (the “Delivery
Date”), Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Premises “as is, where is,”
and Landlord shall be deemed to have performed all of Landlord’s obligations
under this Lease to be performed by Landlord on and prior to the Delivery
Date,
subject only to the “punch-list items.” In all events, the Delivery Date shall
be deemed to have occurred no later than the date Landlord delivers the keys
for
the Premise to Tenant. Except as otherwise specifically and expressly set
forth
in this Lease, Tenant hereby acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent
of
Landlord has made any representation, warranty, or covenant to Tenant or
any of
Tenant’s representatives or agents with respect to or otherwise regarding the
Premises, the Building, the Project, and/or this Lease whatsoever, including
without limitation, any representation or warranty with respect to the
suitability of or fitness of the Premises, the Building, or any other portion
of
the Project for the Use.

market rate of similar centers in the area. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Landlord

For
purposes of computing rent adjustments pursuant to this Article 5, Operating
Expenses for the Project shall be allocated and charged to Tenant in accordance
with generally accepted management practices and expressed as an amount per
square foot of Tenant’s Rentable Space compared with the aggregate Rentable
Space of the Project that is then occupied; provided, however, that in no
case
shall the aggregate Rentable Space of the Project that is then occupied be
less
than ninety-five percent (95%) of all the Rentable Space of the Project.
As
stated above, Operating Expenses shall include all Real Estate Taxes. Operating
Expenses shall not include capital expenditures required to build other
buildings in the Project that are not in existence as of the Rent Commencement
Date or any improvements whatsoever to any such building(s).
b. “Real
Estate Taxes.”
Subject to Section 10.2, “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean all taxes, assessments
and charges (special or otherwise) levied upon or with respect to the Project
and ad valorem taxes on Landlord’s personal property used in connection
therewith. In addition, “Real Estate Taxes” shall include, without limitation
(i) all personal property taxes on personal property used in connection with
the
Project and related structures, (ii) any and all taxes, assessments, license
fees, and public charges levied, assessed, or imposed with respect to the
Project and that become payable during the Term; and (iii) any other taxes
levied or assessed in addition to, as a replacement, alteration, or substitute

or
other governmental tax on the income or capital of Landlord; (c) a franchise

definition of Operating Expenses that is attributable directly to Tenant’s use
or occupancy of the Premises and is charged directly to Landlord shall be
paid
in full by Tenant as Additional Rent when such cost is incurred or, if Landlord
makes such payment, within ten (10) days after receiving written demand for
such
payment from Landlord.
5.3
Additional
Rental Reconciliation.
Each
year
Landlord
shall, as soon as practicable, prepare a statement of Operating Expenses
for the
previous year (the “Operating Expense Statement”), which shall be made available
for Tenant’s review upon Tenant’s reasonable request. If the Operating Expense
Statement reveals that Tenant paid more for Operating Expenses than Tenant’s
actual proportionate share for the year for which such statement was prepared,
then Landlord shall credit Tenant for such excess or, if the Term has expired
and Tenant is not in default hereunder, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for
such
excess; likewise, if Tenant paid less than Tenant’s actual proportionate share
for such year, then Tenant shall promptly pay Landlord such deficiency.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, neither
Landlord nor Tenant shall be entitled to collect for any excess or overage
with
respect to the Additional Rent Expenses after the expiration of the second
(2nd)
calendar year following the calendar year to which the same relate.

such Tenant Alterations, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld
or

set
forth in Section 3.2 for selecting a contractor in connection with the
construction of the Tenant Improvements. All Tenant Alterations shall be
compatible with the Building and completed in accordance with Landlord’s
requirements and all applicable rules, regulations and requirements of
governmental authorities and insurance carriers. Tenant shall pay to Landlord
reasonable charges for having the Tenant Alterations inspected and/or reviewed
(whether by Landlord or Landlord’s employees, representatives, and/or agents),
which amount shall not exceed One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) per submission
of
the proposed Tenant Alteration, to assure full compatibility with the Building.
In charging the above fee, Landlord may charge for services of its in-house
personnel. Landlord does not expressly or implicitly covenant or warrant
that
any such plans or specifications will be safe or that the same will comply
with
any applicable laws, ordinances, codes, rules or regulations. Further, Tenant
shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold Landlord, the Project, and Landlord’s
managing agent, if any, harmless from any loss, cost or expense, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, based upon or growing out of any
alterations or construction undertaken by Tenant or incurred by Landlord

Tenant
Alterations, except to the extent such defects are caused by the gross
negligence of Landlord, its agents, servants or employees. If requested by
Landlord, Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of all contracts, receipts,
paid vouchers, and any other documentation in connection with the construction
of such Tenant Alterations. Tenant shall promptly pay all costs incurred
in
connection with all Tenant Alterations and shall not permit the filing of
any
mechanic’s lien or other lien in connection with any Tenant Alterations. If a
mechanic’s lien or other lien is filed against the Building or the Project,
Tenant shall discharge or cause to be discharged (by bond or otherwise) such
lien within fifteen (15) days after Tenant receives written notice from Landlord
of the filing thereof and shall not allow any such lien to be foreclosed
upon;
provided, however, that Tenant may diligently contest such lien if Tenant
delivers
to Landlord a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.
If
Tenant
fails to timely discharge such lien or to diligently contest the same, Landlord
may, without waiving its rights and remedies based on such breach of Tenant
and
without releasing Tenant from any of its obligations, cause such liens to
be
released by any means it shall deem reasonably proper, including payment
in
satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such lien. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice from
Landlord, any sum paid by Landlord to remove such liens, together with interest
at the rate set forth in Section 24.1. Any increase in any tax, assessment
or
charge levied or assessed as a result of any Tenant Alterations shall be
payable
by Tenant in accordance with Article 10 hereof. Tenant shall be responsible
for
all costs in connection with the work performed in accordance to this
Article 8.

Tenant’s
Obligations.
Except

may,
at Landlord’s sole discretion, complete such repairs and Tenant shall promptly
reimburse Landlord for any and all costs associated therewith.
Except
as
otherwise provided, Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) days after receipt
of
written notice from Landlord, reimburse Landlord for all repairs to the Building

elements of the Project and the Building and improvements thereto, including,
without limitation, such elements that are included within the Premises,
as well
as all mechanical, electrical, plumbing and sewage systems that are located

otherwise provided, any damage caused by any intentional misconduct or
negligence of Tenant (or any of its officers, agents, employees, contractors,
licensees or invitees) shall be repaired at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. It

consent.

equipment, furniture, fixtures or other personal property, Tenant shall pay
Landlord, within ten (10) days following receipt of written notice from
Landlord, the taxes so levied against Landlord, or the proportion thereof
that
is directly related to said increase in such assessed value.
10.2
Exclusion
from Real Estate Taxes.
The
portion of Real Estate Taxes payable by Tenant pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof
shall be excluded from the definition of Real Estate Taxes set forth in Section
5.2(b).
11. Insurance;
Waiver; Subrogation.
11.1
Liability
Insurance.
Tenant
shall at all times during the Term and at its own cost and expense procure
and
continue (a) workers’ compensation insurance and (b) commercial
general liability insurance in amounts of $2,000,000 per occurrence and,
if
the use includes any activity or matter that is or may be excluded from coverage
under a commercial general liability policy (e.g., the sale, service or
consumption of alcoholic beverages), Tenant shall obtain such endorsements
to
the commercial general liability policy or otherwise obtain insurance to
insure
all liability arising from such activity or matter (including liquor liability,
if applicable) in such amounts as Landlord may reasonably require. Such
commercial general liability insurance shall insure Tenant,
Landlord, Landlord’s agents and their respective affiliates against all
liability for injury to or death of a person or persons or damage to property
arising from the use and occupancy of the Premises, bodily
injury liability and property damage liability insurance adequate to protect
Landlord against liability for injury to or death of any person or damage
to
property in connection with the use, operation and condition of the Premises.
Not more frequently than once every year, if, in the written opinion of
Landlord’s lender the amount of commercial general liability insurance coverage
at that time is not adequate, Tenant shall increase such coverage as required
by
Landlord’s lender.
Landlord
and its lender shall be named as an additional insured on Tenant’s policy with
respect to the Premises

11.2
Property
Insurance.
a. Building;
Improvements; Rental Value Insurance.
Landlord shall obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy
or policies of (a) insurance against any loss (other than any loss to any
plate
glass in or on the Project) within the classification of “Fire and Extended
Coverage,” that covers the Project, the Building and the improvements thereon
and that is in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Project’s
actual replacement value, as determined from time to time; and (b) commercial
general liability insurance in amounts of $2,000,000 combined single limit
coverage.
All
premiums and deductibles under the policies required to be maintained by
Landlord pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall be included as part of the
Operating Expenses as defined in Section 5.2 above.
b. Tenant’s
Property Insurance.
Tenant,
at its sole cost and expense shall, at all times during the Term, maintain
in
effect policies of insurance covering all leasehold improvements (including
all
Tenant Improvements and any Tenant Alterations that may be made pursuant
to
Article 8 hereof), trade fixtures, plate glass, merchandise and other personal
property from time to time in, on or upon the Premises, in an amount not
less
than one hundred percent (100%) of their actual replacement value, as determined
from time to time, that provides protection against any peril included within
the classification “Fire and Extended Coverage,” together with insurance against
sprinkler damage (if applicable), vandalism and malicious mischief and water
damage caused by plumbing leakage or failure. The proceeds of such insurance,
so
long as this Lease remains in effect, shall be used for the repair or
replacement of the property so insured.
11.3
Policy
Requirements.
All
insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall be issued by
responsible insurance companies, qualified to do business in the State of
Nevada
and reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Insurance companies rated A-9 or better
by Best’s Insurance Reports are hereby pre-approved by Landlord. Each policy
shall have a deductible or deductibles, if any, which are no greater than
those
maintained by similarly situated tenants and that are reasonably acceptable
to
Landlord. Tenant’s insurance shall provide primary coverage to Landlord when any
policy issued to Landlord provides duplicate or similar coverage, and in
such
circumstance Landlord’s policy will be excess over Tenant’s policy. Copies of
all policies to be obtained by Tenant, together with certificates evidencing
the
existence and amounts of such insurance, shall be delivered to Landlord by
Tenant at least thirty (30) days prior to Tenant’s occupancy of any portion of
the Premises. No such policy shall be cancelable except after thirty (30)
days
written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall, at least thirty (30) days prior
to the
expiration of any such policy, furnish Landlord with renewals or “binders”
thereof, or in the event no such renewals or “binders” are furnished to
Landlord, Landlord may order such insurance and charge the cost thereof to
Tenant, which amount shall be paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days following
Tenant’s receipt of written demand therefor. Any policy required to be obtained
by either party may be carried under so-called “blanket coverage” form of
insurance policies; provided, however, that any such blanket policy specifically
provides that the amount of insurance coverage required hereunder shall in
no
way be prejudiced by other losses covered by the policy. Neither the issuance
of
any such insurance policy nor the minimum limits specified in this Section
11.3
shall be deemed to limit or restrict in any way Tenant’s liability arising under
or out of this Lease.

11.4
Waiver
of Subrogation.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease whatsoever,
Landlord and Tenant waive their respective right of recovery against the
other
for any injury or loss to the extent such injury or loss is required to be
insured against under a policy or policies of insurance and regardless as
to the
fault of the other party; provided, however, that this waiver shall not be
applicable to any portion of any damage that is not reimbursable by the damaged
party’s insurer including, without limitation, the “deductible” in such party’s
insurance coverage. Each such insurance policy carried by either Landlord
or
Tenant shall include a waiver of the insurer’s rights of subrogation. Such
waiver shall in no way be construed or interpreted to limit or restrict any
indemnity or other waiver made by Tenant under the terms of this
Lease.
12. Fire
or Casualty.
12.1 Repair
Estimate.
If the
Premises, Building or any other part of the Project is damaged by fire or
other
casualty (a “Casualty”), Landlord shall, within ninety (90) days after such
Casualty, deliver to Tenant a good faith estimate (the “Damage Notice”) of the
time needed to repair the damage caused by such Casualty.
12.2 Tenant’s
Rights.
If a
material portion of the Premises is damaged by Casualty such that Tenant
is
prevented from conducting its business in the Premises in a manner reasonably
comparable to that conducted immediately before such Casualty and Landlord
estimates that the damage caused thereby cannot be repaired within One Hundred
Eighty (180) days after the Casualty (the “Repair Period”), then Tenant may
terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord of its election
to
terminate within thirty (30) days after the Damage Notice has been received
by
Tenant.

12.5 Waiver
of Statutory Provisions.
The
provisions of this Lease, including this Article 12, constitute an express
agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage
to, or
destruction of, all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project
and
any statute or regulation of the State of Nevada with respect to any rights
or
obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express
agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or
hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage
or
destruction to all or any part of the Premises or the Building.
12.6 Abatement
of Rent.
If the
Premises are damaged by Casualty, rent for the portion of the Premises rendered
untenantable by the damage shall be abated on a reasonable basis from the
date
of damage until the completion of Landlord’s repairs (or until the date of
termination of this Lease by Landlord or Tenant as provided above, as the
case
may be), unless Tenant caused such damage, in which case, Tenant shall continue
to pay rent without abatement.

13.3 Partial
Taking - Landlord’s Rights.
If any
material portion, but less than all, of the Project or Building becomes subject
to a Taking, or if Landlord is required to pay any of the proceeds arising
from
a Taking to a mortgagee of Landlord, then Landlord may terminate this Lease
by
delivering written notice thereof to Tenant within thirty (30) days after
such
Taking, and Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be apportioned as of the
date
of such Taking. If Landlord does not so terminate this Lease, then this Lease
shall continue, but if any portion of the Premises has been taken, rent shall
xxxxx as provided in the last sentence of Section 13.2.
13.4 Award.
If any
Taking occurs, then Landlord shall receive the entire award or other
compensation for the Project, the Building, and other improvements taken;
provided, however, that Tenant may separately pursue a claim (to the extent
it
will not reduce Landlord’s award) against the condemnor for the value of
Tenant’s personal property that Tenant is entitled to remove under this Lease,
moving costs and loss of business. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights
it
might otherwise have pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Section
37.115.
14. Assignment
and Subletting.
14.1
General
Prohibition.
Except
as otherwise provided herein, Tenant shall not directly or indirectly,
voluntarily or involuntarily assign, mortgage or otherwise encumber all or
any
portion of its interest in this Lease or in the Premises (collectively,
“Assignment”) or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant
or Tenant’s employees or sublet the Premises (collectively, “Sublease”) or any
portion thereof without obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord,
which
consent not be unreasonably withheld. Any attempted Assignment or Sublease
without Landlord’s prior written consent shall be null and void and of no
effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant is in default under any
of the
terms of this Lease, Tenant may not request the assignment, transfer or
subletting of the Premises in whole or in part pursuant to Section 14.2
below.
14.2
Notice
of Intent to Assign or Sublet.
If
Tenant desires at any time to enter into an Assignment or to Sublease the
Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first notify Landlord of its desire
to
do so and shall submit in writing to Landlord (i) the name of the proposed
assignee, subtenant, transferee or occupant (“Transferee”); (ii) the nature of
the proposed Transferee’s business to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) the
terms and provisions of the proposed Sublease or Assignment; and (iv) such
financial information as Landlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed
Transferee (collectively, the “Transfer Notice”). In the event the Transferee is
not engaged in the Use, Landlord may, in Landlord’s sole and absolute
discretion, reject the Sublease or Assignment and Tenant agrees such rejection
shall be deemed reasonable.
14.3
No
Release of Tenant’s Obligations.
Unless
otherwise expressly provided, No Assignment or Sublease shall relieve Tenant
of
its obligation to pay the rent and to perform all of the other obligations
to be
performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any
other
person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of
this
Lease or to be a consent to any Assignment or Sublease. Consent to one Sublease
or Assignment shall not be deemed to constitute consent to any subsequent
Sublease or Assignment.

14.4
Transfer
is Assignment.
If
Tenant is a corporation or is an unincorporated association or partnership,
the
issuance of any additional stock or the sale, transfer, assignment or
hypothecation of any stock or interest in such corporation, association or
partnership in the aggregate in excess of fifteen percent (15%) shall be
deemed
an Assignment hereunder. Tenant agrees to promptly pay as Additional Rent
Landlord’s costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the processing
and documentation of any requested Assignment or Sublease.
14.5
Assumption
of Obligations.
Each
Transferee, other than Landlord, shall assume, as provided in this Section
14.5,
all obligations of Tenant under this Lease and shall be and remain liable
jointly and severally with Tenant for the payment of the rent, and for the
performance of all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein
contained on Tenant’s part to be performed for the term of this Lease, the
Assignment or the Sublease; provided, however, that the Transferee shall
be
liable to Landlord for rent only in the amount set forth in the Assignment
or
Sublease. No Assignment shall be binding on Landlord unless the Transferee
or
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a counterpart of the Assignment and an
instrument in recordable form which contains a covenant of assumption by
the
Transferee that is satisfactory in substance and form to Landlord consistent
with the requirements of this Section 14.5. The failure or refusal of the
Transferee to execute such instrument of assumption shall not release or
discharge the Transferee from its liability as set forth above.
15. Landlord’s
Reserved Rights.
15.1
Right
of Entry.
Landlord and its agents and representatives shall have the right, at all
reasonable times, upon twenty-four (24) hours written notice, except in the
case
of an emergency, in which event notice shall be waived, to enter the Premises
for purposes of inspection, to post notices of non-responsibility, to protect
the interest of Landlord in the Premises, to supply janitorial service and
any
other services to be provided by Landlord hereunder, to perform all required
or
permitted work therein, including the erection of scaffolding, props and
other
mechanical devices for the purpose of making alterations, repairs or additions
to the Premises or the Building which are provided for in this Lease or required
by law. Landlord shall have the further right at any time, but subject to
the
notice provisions of this Section 15.1, to perform any work set forth in
Section
15.2 of this Lease. Landlord and its agents and representatives shall also
have
the right during business hours to show the Premises to prospective tenants
(during the last six (6) months of this Lease), lessors of superior leases,
mortgages, prospective mortgagees or prospective purchasers of the Building.
No
such entry shall be construed under any circumstances as a forcible or unlawful
entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant, and
Tenant
hereby waives any claim against Landlord or its agents or representatives
for
damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with, Tenant’s
business or quiet enjoyment of the Premises with respect to entries made
pursuant to this Section 15.1.

Improvements to the Project, other than the Building, and improvements on
any
contiguous property, which may be acquired by Landlord, Landlord’s
successor-in-interest (if any) or by any entity controlling, controlled by
or
under common control with Landlord, shall be referred to herein as “Other
Improvements.”
If
the
Other Improvements are owned by an entity other than Landlord, Landlord shall
have the right, but not the obligation (unless required to comply with zoning
or
other governmental requirements), to enter into an agreement with the owner
of
any or all of the Other Improvements to provide for: (a) reciprocal rights
of
access, use and enjoyment of the Project or the Other Improvements; (b) the

the Other Improvements.

In the
event Landlord (a) becomes the owner of any or all of the Other Improvements
and
the property on which they are located, or (b) conveys the Project to the
owner
of the Other Improvements or to any other person or entity that will become
the
owner of both the Project and the Other Improvements, Landlord, or its
successors or assigns, shall have the right, but not the obligation (unless
required to comply with zoning or other governmental requirements), to
incorporate the Other Improvements into the Project and to provide for the
common management, operation, maintenance and repair of the Project and the
Other Improvements. In the event the Other Improvements are so incorporated
into
the Project, all references to the Project contained in this Lease shall

including without limitation, any corporations or any other entities
controlling, controlled by or under common control with Landlord, from and
against any and all claims, suits, demands, liability, damages and expenses,
including attorneys’ fees and costs, arising from or in connection with Tenant’s
use or alteration of the Premises or the conduct of its business or from
any
activity performed or permitted by Tenant in or about the Premises, the Building
or any part of the Project during the Term or prior to the Rent Commencement
Date if Tenant has been provided access to the Premises, the Building or

part of the Project for any purpose, or arising from any breach or default
in
the performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed under the
terms of this Lease, or arising from Tenant’s use of the Building Services in
excess of their capacity or arising from any other act, neglect, fault or
omission of Tenant or any of its officers, agents, directors, contractors,
employees, licensees or invitees. As a material part of the consideration
to the

all
liability to Tenant for damage to property or injury to persons in, upon
or
about the Premises from any cause whatsoever except that which is intentionally
caused by Landlord’s acts or omissions or by the gross negligence of Landlord;
provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 16.1 shall limit
Tenant’s rights to pursue any claim whatsoever against Landlord to the extent
such claim would be covered by any insurance policy to be obtained and
maintained by Landlord pursuant to Article 11 above. Nothing in this Section
16.1 is intended to limit the mutual waiver set forth in Section 11.4 above.
16.2
Limitation
on Landlord’s Liability.
Except
as otherwise provided, in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for
any
injury to any person in or about the Premises or damage to the Premises or

by the
rupture, leakage or overflow of any plumbing or other pipes, including without
limitation, water, steam and refrigeration lines, sprinklers, tanks, drains,
drinking fountains or similar cause in, about or upon the Premises, the Building
or any other portion of the Project unless such loss, damage or injury is
caused
by the negligence of Landlord, provided, however, that Landlord shall be
liable
in the event of Landlord’s intentional misconduct or gross negligence. Except as
otherwise provided, none of the shareholders, officers, employees, agents,
partners or affiliates of Landlord shall be responsible for any of the
liabilities, obligations or agreements of Landlord under this
Lease.

18. Subordination.
18.1
Subordination.
This
Lease is subject and subordinate to all mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases,
or other encumbrances (the “Underlying Mortgages”) which may now or hereafter be
executed affecting the Project and/or the Building and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of any such
Underlying Mortgages. This clause shall be self-operative and no further
instrument of subordination need be required by any mortgagee, ground lessor
or
beneficiary, affecting any Underlying Mortgage in order to make such
subordination effective. Tenant, however, shall execute, within ten (10)
days
following a written request therefore, any certificate or document that Landlord
may request to effectuate, evidence or confirm such subordination, and failure
to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease.
18.2
Attornment.
If
Landlord’s interest in the Building is sold or conveyed upon the exercise of any
remedy provided for in any Underlying Mortgage, or otherwise by operation
of
law: (a) this Lease will not be affected in any way, and Tenant will attorn
to
and recognize the new owner as Tenant’s Landlord under this Lease, and Tenant
will confirm such attornment in writing within ten (10) days after written
request (Tenant’s failure to do so will constitute a material breach of this
Lease); and (b) the new owner shall not be (i) liable for any act or omission
of
Landlord under this Lease occurring prior to such sale or conveyance, (ii)
subject to any offset, abatement or reduction of rent because of any default
of
Landlord under this Lease occurring prior to such sale or conveyance, or
(iii)
liable for the return of any security deposit paid by Tenant except to the
extent that the security deposit has actually been paid to such person or
entity.
18.3
Notice
from Tenant.
Tenant
shall give written notice to the holder of any Underlying Mortgage whose
name
and address have, if any, been previously furnished to Tenant of any act
or
omission by Landlord which Tenant asserts as giving Tenant the right to
terminate this Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction or any other
right
or remedy under this Lease or provided by law. Tenant further agrees that
if
Landlord shall have failed to cure any default within the time period provided
for in this Lease, then the holder of any Underlying Mortgage shall have
an
additional sixty (60) days within which to cure such default or if such default
cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary
if within such sixty (60) days such holder has commenced and is diligently
pursuing the remedies necessary to cure such default (including, but not
limited
to commencement of foreclosure proceedings, if necessary to effect such cure),
in which event this Lease shall not be terminated while such remedies are
being
so diligently pursued. Landlord shall send Tenant written notice, as soon
as
practicable, disclosing the name and address of the holder of the Underlying
Mortgage, as well as any other information Landlord deems reasonably necessary.
19. Estoppel
Certificates.
Tenant
shall at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior
notice by Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement
in
writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect
(or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and
effect
as modified and stating the modifications), the dates to which the Basic
Rent,
Additional Rent and other charges have been paid in advance, if any, stating
whether or not to the best knowledge of Tenant, Landlord is in default in
the
performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Lease
and,
if so, specifying each such default of which Tenant may have knowledge and
containing any other information and certifications which reasonably may
be
requested by Landlord or the holder of any Underlying Mortgage. Any such
statement delivered pursuant to this Article 19 may be relied upon by any
prospective purchaser of the fee of the Building or the Project or any
mortgagee, ground lessor or other like encumbrance thereof or any assignee
of
any such encumbrance upon the Building or the Project.

20. Surrender
of Premises and Removal of Property.
20.1 No
Merger.
There
shall be no merger of the leasehold estate hereby created with the fee estate

or indirectly, this Lease or any interest in this Lease and the fee estate
in
the leasehold Premises or any interest in such fee estate.
20.2
Surrender
of Premises.
Except
as otherwise provided herein, upon the expiration of the Term, or upon any
earlier termination hereof, Tenant shall quit and surrender possession of
the
Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as the Premises are now
or
hereafter may be improved by Landlord or Tenant, reasonable wear and repairs
which are Landlord’s obligation excepted, and shall, without expense to
Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises, all debris and
rubbish, all furniture (excluding Landlord’s Furniture as defined in Section 34
below), equipment, business and trade fixtures, free-standing cabinet work,
movable partitioning and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant
or
installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and all similar
articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant unless Landlord exercises
its option to have any subleases or sub-tenancies assigned to Landlord, and
Tenant shall repair all damage to the Premises resulting from such removal.
Nothing in this Section 20.2 shall supersede the provisions set forth in
Section 8.2 above.
20.3
Disposal
of Property.
In the
event of the expiration of this Lease or other re-entry of the Premises by
Landlord as provided in this Lease, any property of Tenant not removed by
Tenant
upon the expiration of the term of this Lease, or within five (5) days after
termination hereof by reason of Tenant’s default, shall be considered abandoned
and Landlord may remove any or all of such property and dispose of the same
in
any manner or store the same in a public warehouse or elsewhere for the account
of, and at the expense and risk of, Tenant. If Tenant shall fail to pay the
costs of storing any such property after it has been stored for a period
of
thirty (30) days or more, Landlord may, after giving Tenant ten (10) days
advance written notice, sell any or all of such property at public or private
sale, in such manner and at such places as Landlord, in its sole discretion,
may
deem proper, without notice to or demand upon Tenant. In the event of such
sale,
Landlord shall apply the proceeds thereof, first, to the cost and expense
of
sale, including reasonable attorneys’ fees; second, to the repayment of the cost
of removal and storage; third, to the repayment of any other sums which may
then
or thereafter be due to Landlord from Tenant under any of the terms of this
Lease; and fourth, the balance, if any, to Tenant.

20.4
Notice
of Expiration of Term.
Tenant
shall give written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intention to surrender the
Premises upon the expiration of the Term, which notice shall have been received
by Landlord at least six (6) months before the expiration of the Term. Nothing
contained herein, however, shall be construed as an extension of the Term
or as
consent of Landlord to any holding over by Tenant in the event said notice
is
not given in a timely fashion.
21. Holding
Over.
In the
event Tenant holds over after the expiration or termination of the Term,
with or
without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be
a
tenancy at sufferance only, and the Term shall not be subject to any renewal
or
extension whatsoever. Tenant’s tenancy at sufferance under this Section 21 shall
be subject to each and every term, covenant and agreement contained herein,
to
the extent such term, covenant and agreement is not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Section 21; provided, however, that Tenant shall pay Basic
Rent during any holding over period in an amount equal to the greater of
two
hundred percent (200%) of the fair market value rental rate of the Premises
or
two hundred (200%) of the Basic Rent payable immediately preceding the
expiration or termination of the Term. Nothing in this Article 21 shall be
construed as a consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant and Landlord
expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of
the
Premises upon the expiration or termination hereof and to assert any remedy
in
law or equity to evict Tenant or collect damages in connection with such
holding
over.
22. Defaults
and Remedies.
22.1
Defaults
by Tenant.
The
occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a material default and
breach of this Lease by Tenant:
a. The

event of any such default by Tenant, then, in addition to any other remedies
available to Landlord at law or in equity, Tenant shall repay to Landlord
all
free Base Rent and Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate
this
Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving Tenant prior written notice
of its election to terminate at least five (5) business in advance of such
termination date. In the event Landlord shall elect to so terminate this
Lease,
Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(i)
the
worth
at the time of award of any unpaid rent which has been earned at the time
of
such termination; plus
|
INITIAL

|

LANDLORD
|
TENANT
|
25
(ii)
the
worth
at the time of award of any 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 term after the time of the award exceeds the amount of such rental loss
that
Tenant proves could be 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 there from; 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.
b. All
“rent” (as defined in Section 4.4) shall be computed on the basis on the monthly
amount thereof payable on the date of Tenant’s default, as the same are to be
adjusted thereafter as contemplated by this Lease. As used in paragraphs
(i) and
(ii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by allowing interest in
the per annum amount equal to the prime rate of interest or other equivalent
reference rate from time to time announced by the Bank of America National
Trust
and Savings Association (the “Reference Rate”) plus one percent (1%), but in no
event in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted by law. As used in
paragraph (iii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is 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%).
c. In
the
event of any such default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right,
with or
without terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons
and property there from by summary proceedings or otherwise; such property
may
be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and
for
the account of Tenant.
d. In
the
event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or in the
event
that Landlord elects to re-enter as provided in Paragraph (c) above or takes
possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any
notice provided by law, and if Landlord does not elect to terminate this
Lease,
then Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, either
recover all rent as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof
for
such term or terms and at such rent and upon such other terms and conditions
as
Landlord, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable, with the right to make
alterations and repairs to the Premises. If Landlord does not terminate this
Lease and if Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to an Assignment of this Lease
or a Sublease of the Premises at such time as Tenant is in default, Landlord
may
not unreasonably withhold its consent to such Assignment or
Sublease.

e. In
the
event that Landlord shall elect to so relet as provided in Paragraph (d)
above,
then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied: first,
to the payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant
to
Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to
the
payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth,
to
the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the remainder, if any,
shall
be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may
become
due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from
such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent
hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder,
then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall
be
calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as
ascertained, any and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord
in
such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the
rentals received from such reletting.
22.3
Re-Entry
Not Termination.
No
re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this
Article 22 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless
a
written notice of such intention is given to Tenant or unless the termination
thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding
any
reletting without termination by Landlord because of any default of Tenant,
Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease
for
any such default.
22.4
Definition
of Tenant.
As used
in this Article 22 and in Article 23, the term “Tenant” shall be deemed to
include all persons or entities named as Tenant under this Lease, or each
and
every one of them. If any of the obligations of Tenant hereunder is guaranteed
by another person or entity, the term “Tenant” shall be deemed to include all of
such guarantors and any one or more of such guarantors. If this Lease has
been
assigned, the term “Tenant,” as used in this Article 22 and in Article 23 shall
be deemed to include both the assignee and the assignor.
23. Bankruptcy.
If,
at
any time prior to the Rent Commencement Date, any action is taken by or against
Tenant in any court pursuant to any statute pertaining to bankruptcy or
insolvency or the reorganization of Tenant, Tenant makes any general assignment
for the benefit of creditors, a trustee or receiver is appointed to take
possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or of Tenant’s interest in
this Lease, or there is an attachment, execution or other judicial seizure
of
substantially all of Tenant’s assets or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, then
this Lease shall ipso facto
be
canceled and terminated and no further force or effect. In such event, neither
Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant or by virtue of any
statute or of any order of any court shall be entitled to possession of the
Premises or any interest in this Lease and Landlord shall, in addition to
any
other rights and remedies under this Lease, be entitled to retain any rent,
security deposit or other monies received by Landlord from Tenant as liquidated
damages.

24. Interest
on Tenant’s Obligations; Late Charges.
24.1
Interest.
Any
amount due from Tenant to Landlord which is not paid when due shall bear
interest at the lesser of ten percent (10%) in excess of the Reference Rate
(as
defined in Paragraph 22.2(b) above) or the maximum rate per annum which Landlord
is permitted by law to charge, from the date such payment is due until paid,
but
the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant
under this Lease.
24.2
Late
Charge.
In the
event Tenant is more than five (5) days late in paying any installment of
rent
due under this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to ten
percent (10%) of the delinquent installment of rent plus a fee of Twenty
Dollars
($20.00) per day until such installment of rent is paid. The parties agree
that
the amount of such late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the cost
and
expense that would be incurred by Landlord in processing each delinquent
payment
of rent by Tenant and that such late charge shall be paid to Landlord as
liquidated damages for each delinquent payment, but the payment of such late
charge shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. The
parties further agree that the payment of late charges and the payment of
interest provided for in Section 24.1 above are distinct and separate from
one
another in that the payment of interest is to compensate Landlord for the
use of
Landlord’s money by Tenant, while the payment of a late charge is to compensate
Landlord for the additional administrative expense incurred by Landlord in
handling and processing delinquent payments.
25. Quiet
Enjoyment.
Tenant,
upon the paying of all rent hereunder and performing each of the covenants,
agreements and conditions of this Lease required to be performed by Tenant,
shall lawfully and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the
Term
without hindrance or molestation of anyone lawfully claiming by, through
or
under Landlord, subject, however, to the provisions set forth in this
Lease.
26. Examination
of Lease.
The
submission of this instrument for examination or signature by Tenant, Tenant’s
agents or attorneys, does not constitute a reservation of, or an option to
lease, and this instrument shall not be effective or binding as a lease or
otherwise until its execution and delivery by both Landlord and
Tenant.
27. Brokers.
Each of
the parties hereto represent and warrant to the other that it has not had
any
contact or dealings with any person or real estate broker that would give
rise
to the payment of any fee or brokerage commission, in connection with this
Lease, and each party hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend
the
other party from and against any liability with respect to any fee or brokerage
commission in connection with this Lease.
28. Rules
and Regulations.
The
Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Exhibit E
are
hereby incorporated herein and made a part of this Lease. Tenant agrees to
abide
by and comply with each and every one of said Rules and Regulations and any
reasonable amendments, modifications and/or additions thereto as may hereafter
be adopted by Landlord for the safety, care, security, good order and
cleanliness of the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Project.
Landlord shall have the right to reasonably amend, modify or add to the Rules
and Regulations in its sole discretion. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant
for any violation of any of the Rules and Regulations by any other tenant
or for
the failure of Landlord to enforce any of the Rules and
Regulations.

and punctual payment, performance and observance by the Tenant of all terms,
covenants and conditions contained in the Lease on Tenant’s part to be kept,

2.
Any
act
of the Landlord or its agents, or the successors or assigns of the Landlord
or
their agents, consisting of a waiver of any of the terms or conditions of
the
Lease, or the giving of any consent to any manner or thing relating to the
Lease, or the granting of any indulgences or extensions of time to the Tenant,
or to the release of any collateral providing security for the full performance
of Tenant’s obligations, or the failure of Landlord to resort to any of its
remedies provided by the Lease or at law or in equity, may be done and taken
without notice to the Guarantor and without releasing the obligations of
the
Guarantor hereunder. Guarantor hereby expressly waives any notice of
