LEASE
THIS LEASE is made as of July 18, 2007, by and between MTV RESEARCH, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (“Landlord”), and XXXXXX MEDICAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).
Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord 000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx
Xxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx (the “Premises”) outlined on the floor plan attached hereto and
marked EXHIBIT A, the Premises being agreed, for the purposes of this Lease, to have an
area of approximately 63,131 rentable square feet. The Premises are located within the building
(the “Building”) consisting of approximately 63,131 rentable square feet shown on EXHIBIT A.
The rentable area of the Premises and the Building referred to above shall be deemed the actual
rentable area in the Premises and Building.
Landlord and Tenant agree that said letting and hiring is upon and subject to the terms,
covenants and conditions herein set forth. Tenant covenants, as a material part of the
consideration for this Lease, to keep and perform each and all of said terms, covenants and
conditions for which Tenant is liable and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such
performance.
Prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall cause the Premises to be improved by Landlord’s
Work described in EXHIBIT H (other than the Items set forth on EXHIBIT K which
shall serve to amend EXHIBIT H) and Landlord’s Roof Work described in EXHIBIT H-1
attached hereto and as set forth in that certain Indemnity and Reimbursement Agreement dated
June 29, 2007 (“Reimbursement Agreement”), by and between Landlord and Tenant and attached hereto
as EXHIBIT L. EXHIBIT B attached hereto sets forth Tenant’s obligations concerning the
Tenant Improvements to be performed by it to the Premises.
Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease or as required under Applicable Law
(as hereinafter defined), Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure, incur any
obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with the Lease or the
ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises or the Building.
ARTICLE 1
TERM
TERM
1.1 Commencement Date and Delivery Date. The term of this Lease shall be for
EIGHTY-FOUR (84) MONTHS unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. The Term shall commence
on the earlier of: (i) the date on which Tenant completes Tenant’s Work as described on EXHIBIT
B attached, (ii) the date that Tenant opens for business in the Premises or (iii) December
1,2007; provided, however, that if the Delivery Date does not occur by August 1, 2007, for any
reason other than as a result of events of Force Majeure (as hereinafter defined) or Delays Caused
by Tenant (as hereinafter defined), then such December 1, 2007 date shall be extended on a day for
day basis between August 1, 2007 and the actual Delivery Date. The “Delivery Date” shall be the
date that Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant with the
Landlord’s Work Substantially Complete. The Landlord’s Work shall be deemed to be “Substantially
Complete” on the earliest of the date on which: (l) Landlord files or causes to be filed with the
City of Mountain View (the “City”), if required, and delivers to Tenant an architect’s notice of
substantial completion, or similar written notice that the Landlord’s Work is substantially
complete, or (2) a certificate of occupancy (or a reasonably substantial equivalent such as a
signoff from a building inspector or a temporary certificate of occupancy) is issued for the
Landlord’s Work. The term “Delays Caused By Tenant” shall mean any delay that the Landlord may
encounter in the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease because of any act or
omission of any nature by Tenant or its agents or invitees, including delays by Tenant in the
submission of information requested by Landlord or giving authorizations or approvals requested by
Landlord, delays due to the postponement of any Landlord’s Work at the request of Tenant, or delays
due to the failure of the Landlord to approve, for reasonable reasons, any information provided by
Tenant which is incomplete or unacceptable, or delays caused by the concurrent installation of
Tenant’s fixtures, or delays caused in any other way, directly or indirectly, by Tenant, its agents
or invitees, or delays due to the failure of Tenant to pay when due, the amounts required by Tenant
pursuant to the Work Letter.
1.1.1 The date that the Lease commences in accordance with this Article 1 shall be referred to
herein as the “Commencement Date”.
1.1.2 On and after the Commencement Date, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect
for the period of time specified as the Term or until this Lease is terminated as otherwise
provided herein. As soon as the Commencement Date is determined, Tenant shall execute a
Commencement Date Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F acknowledging, among other
things, the (a) Commencement Date, (b) scheduled termination date of this Lease and (c) Tenant’s
acceptance of the Premises. The Tenant’s failure to execute the Commencement Date Memorandum shall
not affect Tenant’s liability hereunder.
1.1.3 Reference in this Lease to a “Lease Year” shall mean each successive twelve month period
commencing with the Commencement Date.
1.1.4 Landlord and Tenant estimate that the Delivery Date shall be July 31, 2007, but such
estimate is not and shall not be deemed to be a representation or warranty by Landlord that
Premises shall be ready for Tenant’s occupancy on such date.
ARTICLE 2
POSSESSION
POSSESSION
2.1 Lease in Full Force and Effect. Tenant agrees that, if Landlord is unable to
deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant by August 1, 2007 (the “Scheduled Delivery Date”),
this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or
damage resulting therefrom, but in such event the Delivery Date shall not be deemed to have
occurred until Landlord tenders possession of the Premises to Tenant with the Landlord’s Work
Substantially Complete. If Landlord completes construction of the Landlord’s Work prior to the
Scheduled Delivery Date, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant and such date
shall be the Delivery Date. If the Delivery Date does not commence by sixty (60) days after
the anticipated Scheduled Delivery Date (the “Cut-Off Date”), Tenant may, as its sole and exclusive
remedy in connection therewith, terminate this Lease by providing Landlord written notice thereof
on or three (3) business days after the Cut-Off Date, in which event neither Landlord nor Tenant
shall have any liability hereunder; provided however, that any delay caused by Force Majeure or
Delays Caused by Tenant, shall result in a day-for-day extension of
the Cut-Off Date. Additionally
and without in any way limiting the foregoing, for each day after July 15, 2007 that this Lease is
not fully executed and delivered by Landlord and Tenant, the Cut-Off Date shall be extended on a
day-for-day basis.
2.2. Acceptance by Tenant. Tenant has determined that the Premises are acceptable for
Tenant’s use and Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any broker or agent has made any
representations or warranties in connection with the physical condition of the Premises or their
fitness for Tenant’s use upon which Tenant has relied directly or indirectly for any purpose.
Tenant’s possession of the Premises during the period of time, if any, prior to the Commencement
Date, shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease and shall not advance the expiration
date, except that Tenant shall not be obligated for the payment of Rent until the Commencement
Date.
ARTICLE 3
RENT
RENT
3.1 Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in lawful money of the United States of
America, at the address of Landlord designated on the signature page of this Lease or to such other
person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, the monthly
base rent for the Premises (the “Base Rent”) in advance, without notice, demand, offset or
deduction, on the first day of each calendar month. Tenant shall pay the first month’s Base Rent
and the estimated amount of Additional Rent for the first month on the date Tenant executes this
Lease, and shall continue to pay the Base Rent on the first day of each month thereafter (subject
to adjustment as hereinafter provided) as follows:
Months of Term | Base Rent/Per Month | |||
1-12 |
$ | 135,731.65 | ||
13-24 |
$ | 139,803.60 | ||
25 -36 |
$ | 143,997.71 | ||
37 -48 |
$ | 148,317.64 | ||
49-60 |
$ | 152,767.17 | ||
61-72 |
$ | 157,350.18 | ||
73-84 |
$ | 162,070.69 |
If the Term commences or ends on a date other than the first or last day of a month, Base Rent
shall be prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month. Tenant shall pay Landlord the Rent (as
hereinafter defined) due under this Lease without any deduction or offset whatsoever by Tenant,
foreseeable or unforeseeable.
3.2 Additional Rent. In addition to the Base Rent, Tenant agrees to pay as additional
rental (the “Additional Rent” and together with the Base Rent, the “Rent”) the amount of rental
adjustments and all other charges required by this Lease. All sums other than the Base Rent that
Tenant is obligated to pay under this Lease will be Additional Rent, whether or not such sums are
designated as Additional Rent.
3.3 Late Charge and Interest. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the late payment of
any Rent will cause Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection
costs, processing and accounting expenses, and increased debt service (the “Delinquency Costs”). If
Landlord has not received any installment of Rent when due, Tenant shall pay a late charge (the
“Late Charge”) equal to seven percent (7%) of the delinquent amount. Notwithstanding the above, so
long as no Event of Default is continuing, a Late Charge will not be assessed against Tenant until
after Landlord gives written notice to Tenant of a late payment once in any given twelve (12) month
period and Tenant has not cured that late payment within three (3) days after the written notice.
Tenant agrees that the Late Charge represents a reasonable estimate of the Delinquency Costs that
will be incurred by Landlord. In addition, Tenant shall pay interest on all delinquent amounts from
the date the amount was due until the date the amount is paid in full at a rate per annum (the
“Applicable Interest Rate”) equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum interest rate permitted by law
or (b) four percent (4%) above the reference rate (the “Reference Rate”) publicly announced by Bank
of America, NA. (or if Bank of America, NA. ceases to exist, the largest bank then headquartered in
the State of California) (the “Bank”). If the Bank discontinues use of the Reference Rate, then the
term “Reference Rate” will mean the announced rate charged by the Bank, from time to time instead
of the Reference Rate. Landlord and Tenant agree that it is difficult to ascertain the damage that
Landlord will suffer as a result of the late payment of any Rent and that the Late Charge and
interest are the best estimates of the damage that Landlord will suffer in the event of late
payment. If a Late Charge becomes payable for any two (2) installments of Rent within any twelve
(12) month period, then all Rent will automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance.
ARTICLE 4
RENTAL ADJUSTMENT
RENTAL ADJUSTMENT
4.1 Rental Adjustment
(a) For the purpose of this Lease, the following terms are defined as follows:
(i) Tenant’s Share: for the Building shall be equal to one hundred percent
(100%).
(ii) Direct Expenses. The term “Direct Expenses” shall include “Taxes” (as
hereinafter defined) and “Operating Expenses” (as hereinafter defined).
(A) “Taxes” means the sum of any and all real and personal property taxes and assessments,
possessory-interest taxes, business or license taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such
taxes or fees, annual or periodic license or use fees, excises, transit and traffic charges,
housing fund assessments, open space charges, childcare fees, school, sewer and parking fees or any
other assessments, levies, fees, exactions or charges, general and special, ordinary and
extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen (including fees “in-lieu” of any such tax or
assessment) which are assessed, levied, charged, conferred or imposed by any public authority upon
the Building (or any real property comprising any portion thereof) or its operations, together with
all taxes, assessments or other fees imposed by any public authority upon or measured by any Rent
or other charges payable hereunder, including any gross receipts tax or excise tax levied by any
governmental authority with respect to receipt of rental income, or upon, with respect to or by
reason of the development, possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration,
repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof, or documentary transfer
taxes upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an
interest in the Premises, together with any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of
any tax previously included within the aforesaid definition or any additional tax the nature of
which was previously included within the aforesaid definition, together with any and all costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys, administrative and expert witness fees and
costs) of challenging any of the foregoing or seeking, the reduction in or abatement, redemption or
return of any of the foregoing, but only to the extent of any such reduction, abatement, redemption
or return. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Taxes” shall not include franchise, transfer,
inheritance or capital stock taxes or income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord unless,
due to a change in the method of taxation, any of such taxes is levied or assessed against Landlord
as a substitute for, or as an addition to, in whole or in part, any other tax that would otherwise
constitute a Tax. Nothing contained in the foregoing sentence shall be deemed to provide Tenant
with so-called “prop. 13” protection. Subject to the foregoing two sentences, all references to
Taxes during a particular year shall be deemed to refer to taxes accrued during such year,
including supplemental tax bills regardless of when they are actually assessed and without regard
to when such taxes are payable. The obligation of Tenant to pay for supplemental taxes shall
survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. In no event shall Tenant or any Tenant
Party (as hereinafter defined) be entitled to file any property tax assessment appeal. Tenant’s
obligations for Taxes for the last full and/or partial year(s) of the Term shall survive the
expiration or early termination of the Lease.
(B) Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(a)(ii)(C) below, “Operating Expenses” means
the total costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in the operation, maintenance, repair and
management of the Common Area and the Building, including, but not limited to, (a) the exterior and
structural parts of the Building, (b) the costs and premiums relating to the insurance maintained
by Landlord with respect to the Building, including, without limitation, Landlord’s cost of any
self insurance deductible or retention, (c) parking areas (including sweeping, striping and slurry
coating), (d) service and maintenance contracts for landscaping services; (e) all wage and labor
costs, including fringe benefits, applicable to
persons engaged in the operation, maintenance and repair of the Building as Landlord’s agents or as
independent contractors; (f) capital improvements made to or capital assets acquired for the
Building after the Commencement Date that (1) are intended to reduce Operating Expenses or (2) are
reasonably necessary for the health and safety of the occupants of the Building as determined by
Landlord in its commercially reasonable discretion or (3) are required to comply with any and all
applicable laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations, conditions of approval
and requirements of all federal, state, county, municipal and governmental authorities and all
administrative or judicial orders or decrees and all permits, licenses, approvals and other
entitlements issued by governmental entities, and rules of common law, relating to or affecting the
Building, the Premises or the Building or the use or operation thereof, whether now existing or
hereafter enacted, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42
USC 12111 et seq. (the “ADA”) as the same may be amended from time to time, all Environmental Laws
(as hereinafter defined), and any CC&Rs, or any corporation, committee or association formed in
connection therewith, or any supplement thereto recorded in any official or public records with
respect to the Building or any portion thereof (collectively, “Applicable Laws”), which capital
costs, or an allocable portion thereof, shall be amortized over the useful life of such improvement
using generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, as reasonably determined by
Landlord, together with interest on the unamortized balance at the Applicable Interest Rate (as
hereinafter defined); and (g) any other costs incurred by Landlord related to the Building as a whole. Operating Expenses shall also include a management fee
for services rendered by Landlord or a third party manager engaged by Landlord, not to exceed the
monthly rate of four percent (4%) of the Base Rent. Operating Expenses shall not include costs set
forth in Sections 13.1, which costs shall be borne exclusively by the Tenant.
(C) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operating Expenses shall specifically exclude the
following: (a) costs incurred in connection with the original construction of the Building; (b)
depreciation, interest and principal payments on mortgages and other debt costs, if any, and rental
payments under any ground lease; (c) costs of correcting major and/or latent defects or significant
design errors relating to the initial design or construction of the Building; (d) legal fees, space
planners’ fees and advertising expenses incurred in connection with the original development or
original leasing of the Building or with any future leasing of the Building; (e) costs for which
Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant or by insurance by its carrier or any tenant’s carrier or by
anyone else; (f) any bad debt loss, rent loss or reserves for bad debts or rent loss; (g) costs
associated with the operation of the business entity which constitutes Landlord, as the same are
distinguished from the costs of operation of the Building, including trust accounting and legal
matters, (h) costs of defending any lawsuits with any mortgagee (except as the actions of the
Tenant may be in issue), (i) costs of settling, syndicating, financing, mortgaging or hypothecating
any of Landlord’s interest in the Building; provided, however, that nothing set forth in the
foregoing shall be deemed to provide Tenant with so-called “prop. 13 protection”); (j)costs
(including attorneys’ fees and costs of settlement judgments and payments in lieu thereof) arising
from claims, disputes or potential disputes in connection with potential or actual claims,
litigation or arbitrations pertaining to Landlord and/or the Building and/or the site upon which

employee who does not devote a portion of his or her employed time to the
Building unless such wages and benefits are prorated to reflect time spent on operating and
managing the Building vis-a-vis time spent on matters unrelated to operating and managing the
Building; (1) fines, penalties and interest imposed on Landlord in connection with any late
payments by Landlord for taxes, assessments or mortgages on the Building, other than as a result of
Tenant’s failure to pay Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses; (m) overhead and profit
increments paid to Landlord or to subsidiaries or affiliates of Landlord for services in the
Building to the extent the same exceed the costs of such services rendered by qualified, first
class, unaffiliated third parties on a competitive basis; (n) electric power costs for which any
tenant directly contracts with the local public utility company; (o) costs arising from Landlord’s
political or charitable contributions; (p) Landlord’s general overhead and general and
administrative expenses (it being understood that the foregoing is not intended to prohibit the
collection of the management fee); (q) costs (including attorney’s fees) incurred by Landlord due
to the violation by Landlord or any tenant (other than Tenant) of the terms and conditions of any
lease of space in the Building other than this Lease; (r) material costs of tenant signs (other
than for Tenant); (s) costs incurred in connection with curing any non-compliance with any
disability, life, fire and safety codes, ordinances, statutes, or other laws in effect prior to the
Delivery Date, including, without limitation, the American with Disabilities Act, including
penalties or damages incurred due to such non-compliance; and (t) any entertainment, dining or
travel expenses of Landlord for any purpose.
(D) Tenant hereby consents to the formation of any other districts formed for maintenance,
utilities, landscaping, lighting, special service zones, fire district, water district, road
extensions, traffic mitigation, sports facilities or other improvements in the Building and to the
re-financing of any assessment districts, provided that payment of any of the foregoing shall be
Tenant’s responsibility. Tenant hereby waives any right of notice and protest in connection with
the formation and continued existence of the assessment districts. Tenant shall execute all
documents, including, but not limited to, petitions and formal waivers of notice and protest of
formation, evidencing such consent and waiver upon request of Landlord or the City.
(b) Payment of Direct Expenses.
(i) Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses as Additional Rent. Tenant shall pay
such share of the actual Direct Expenses incurred or paid by Landlord but not theretofore billed to
Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written xxxx therefor from Landlord, accompanied
by reasonable evidence of the expenses incurred by Landlord, on such periodic basis as Landlord may
designate, but in no event more frequently than once a month. Alternatively, Landlord may require
from time to time that Tenant pay Tenant’s Share of Landlord’s estimate of Direct Expenses (the “Landlord’s Estimate”). This estimated amount
shall be divided into twelve equal monthly installments. Tenant shall pay to Landlord without
offset or deduction, concurrently with the regular monthly Base Rent payment next due following the
receipt of such statement, an amount equal to one monthly installment multiplied by the number of
months from January in the calendar year in which said statement is submitted to the month of such
payment, both months inclusive (but Tenant shall be credited for prior amounts paid by Tenant based
on the estimated bills, if any). Subsequent installments shall be payable
concurrently with the regular monthly Base Rent payments for the balance of that calendar year and
shall continue until the next calendar year’s statement is rendered.
(ii) As soon as possible after the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall provide
Tenant with a statement showing the amount of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses and the amount of
Landlord’s Estimate actually paid by Tenant. Thereafter, Landlord shall reconcile the above amounts
and shall either xxxx Tenant for the balance due (payable within thirty (30) days after demand by
Landlord) or credit any overpayment by Tenant towards the next monthly installment of Landlord’s
Estimate falling due, as the case may be.
(c) Obligation to Pay. Tenant’s obligation to pay Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses
shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses shall
be paid by Tenant when due even though the Term has expired and/or Tenant has vacated the Premises,
when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for the year in which
this Lease terminates, Tenant shall immediately pay any increase due over the estimated expenses
paid and, conversely, any overpayment made in the event said expenses decrease shall be rebated by
Landlord to Tenant.
(d) Net, Net, Net Lease. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1 (a)(ii)(C) below,
Landlord and Tenant understand and agree that this Lease is what is commonly known as a “net, net,
net lease.” Tenant recognizes and acknowledges, without limiting the generality of any other terms
or provisions of this Lease, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.l(a)(ii)(C) below, that it
is the intent of the parties hereto that any and all Base Rent in this Lease provided to be paid by
Tenant to Landlord shall be net to Landlord, and any and all expenses incurred in connection with
the Premises and Building, including the inspection thereof, or in connection with the operations
thereon, including any and all taxes, assessments, general or special license fees, insurance
premiums, public utility bills and costs of repair, maintenance and operation of the Premises and
Building and all buildings, structures, permanent fixtures and other improvements comprised
therein, together with the appurtenances thereto, and management fees, in addition to the Base Rent
herein provided for, shall be paid by Tenant.
(e) Audit Right.
(i) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred, Tenant shall have the right (“Audit
Right”) once every calendar year during the Term of the Lease to audit Landlord’s records and books
used by Landlord in determining the amount of Direct Expenses Tenant is obligated to pay to
Landlord for the sole purpose of verifying the accuracy of same (the “Audit”). Any Audit shall
cover only one (l) calendar year during the Term of the Lease. Tenant shall provide Landlord at
least thirty (30) days prior written notice requesting the Audit, provided, however, that Tenant’s
right, if any, to exercise its Audit Right for any subject year shall expire sixty (60) days after
the delivery to Tenant of the Operating Expense Statement for the calendar year which Tenant
desires to audit and, unless such right is exercised prior to such time, Tenant shall have waived
its right to request such an Audit. Landlord shall make said books and records relevant to such
Audit available to Tenant during Landlord’s customary business hours at the office of the property
manager of the Project or at such other location designated by Landlord in writing.
(ii) If the Audit discloses that the amount of Direct Expenses paid by Tenant to
Landlord exceeds the actual amount of Direct Expenses owed by Tenant to Landlord by more than five
percent (5%) (“Overcharge”), then Landlord shall pay all reasonable and necessary third party
out-of-pocket costs for the Audit. If the Audit discloses that the amount of Direct Expenses paid
by Tenant to Landlord does not exceed the actual amount of Direct Expenses owned by Tenant to
Landlord by more than five percent (5%) (“Undercharge”), then Tenant shall pay all costs associated with the Audit, including, without limitation, all of Landlord’s
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney and accountant fees.
(iii) The Audit shall only be conducted by a reputable accounting firm (“Accounting
Firm”). As a condition precedent to any such Audit, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of
Tenant’s written agreement with such Accounting Firm, which agreement shall include provisions
which state that: (A) Landlord is an intended third-party beneficiary of such agreement, (B) such
Accounting Firm is not being engaged as a contingency or other incentive based auditor; (C) such
Accounting Firm will not in any manner solicit or agree to represent any other tenant of the
Project with respect to an audit or other review of Landlord’s accounting records at the Project,
and (D) such Accounting Firm shall maintain in strict confidence any and all information obtained
in connection with the Audit and shall not disclose such information to any person or entity other
than to the management personnel of Tenant. The Accounting Firm, Landlord and Tenant shall enter
into a confidentiality agreement in form and substance acceptable to Landlord whereby the
Accounting Firm and Tenant shall covenant, among other things, that the Accounting Firm and the
Tenant shall keep the books and records of Landlord in strict confidence.
(iv) In the event that the amount of Direct Expenses paid by Tenant to Landlord
exceed the actual amount of Direct Expenses owed by Tenant to Landlord as disclosed by the Audit,
such difference shall be applied to the next succeeding payment of Direct Expenses due by Tenant to
Landlord. In the event that the amount of Direct Expenses paid by Tenant to Landlord is less than
the actual amount of Direct Expenses owed by Tenant to Landlord as disclosed by the Audit, Tenant
shall pay such difference to Landlord within ten (10) days of such determination.
ARTICLE 5
SECURITY DEPOSIT
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the sum of One Hundred Sixty
Two Thousand Seven and 69/100 Dollars ($162,070.69) (the “Security Deposit”). The Security Deposit
shall be held by Landlord as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of
Tenant’s obligations hereunder. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision 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 this Security Deposit for the
payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any other amount which
Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default or to compensate
Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default. If
any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, upon demand, deposit cash
with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security
Deposit to its original amount. Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease.
Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and
Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on the Security Deposit. If Tenant shall fully and
faithfully perform all of its obligations under this Lease, and if Tenant is not in default under
this Lease, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or, at
Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant’s interests hereunder) after the expiration of
the Term and after Landlord after such time as any amount due from Tenant in accordance with
Article 4 hereof has been determined and paid in full. Tenant hereby waives the benefit of
California Civil Code Section 1950.7 with regards to such Security Deposit, it being agreed and
understood that Landlord shall have the right, upon an Event of Default, to apply the Security
Deposit to satisfy the payment of future rent obligations.

promulgate laws, rules, plans and regulations affecting the use of the Premises, including, but not
limited to, traffic management plans and energy conservation plans. Tenant’s use of the Premises
shall be subject to and Tenant shall comply with any and all such laws, rules, plans, and
regulations. Tenant, at its sole cost,· shall comply with any and all federal, state or local
environmental, health and/or safety-related laws, regulations, standards, decisions of courts,

ARTICLE 9
HOLDING OVER; SURRENDER
HOLDING OVER; SURRENDER
9.1 Holding Over. If Tenant holds over the Premises or any part thereof after
expiration of the Term, such holding over shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a month-to-month
tenancy, at a rent equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent in effect immediately
prior to such holding over and shall otherwise be on all the other terms and conditions of this
Lease. The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall not be construed as Landlord’s permission for
Tenant to hold over. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord following expiration or termination shall not
constitute a renewal of this Lease or extension of the Term except as specifically set forth above.
If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss or liability resulting
from or arising out of Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises, including, but not limited to,
any amounts required to be paid to any tenant or prospective tenant who was to have occupied the
Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and any related attorneys’ fees
and brokerage commissions.
9.2 Surrender. Upon the termination of this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of
the Premises, Tenant will surrender the Premises broom clean, together with all keys, in good
condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall patch and fill all holes
within the Premises. Tenant shall also remove all alterations or improvements made by it, or made
by Landlord at Tenant’s request or direction, to the Premises (which removal shall include
restoration if and to the extent necessary to return the Premises to its condition at the
Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear excluded), subsequent to the completion of the initial
Tenant Improvements, excluding the Tenant Improvements, unless requested not to do so by Landlord.
In no event may Tenant remove from the Premises any mechanical or electrical systems or any wiring
or any other aspect of any systems within the Premises. Conditions existing because of Tenant’s
failure to perform maintenance, repairs or replacements shall not be deemed “reasonable wear and
tear.”
ARTICLE 10
TAXES ON TENANT’S PROPERTY
TAXES ON TENANT’S PROPERTY
(a) Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, at least ten (10) days before delinquency, all
taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the
Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant’s personal property or trade fixtures are levied against
Landlord or Landlord’s property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the
inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and if
Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment,
which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper
protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall, upon demand, repay to Landlord the taxes so levied
against Landlord, or the portion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment.
(b) If the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, whether installed, and/or paid for by Landlord
or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are
assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which Tenant
Improvements conforming to Landlord’s “Building Standard,” in other space in the Building are
assessed, then the real property taxes and assessment levied against the Building by reason of such
excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant
and shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10(a), above. If the records of the County
Assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining whether said Tenant
Improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than Landlord’s Building Standard, such records
shall be binding on both the Landlord and the Tenant. If the records of the County Assessor are not
available or sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for making said determination, the actual
cost of construction shall be used.
ARTICLE 11
CONDITION OF PREMISES
CONDITION OF PREMISES
Landlord warrants that the roof shall be free of leaks until January 31, 2008. Subject to the
foregoing, Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any
representation or warranty with respect to the Premises or the Building or with respect to the
suitability of either for the conduct of Tenant’s business. Tenant shall have a period of fifteen
(15) business days following the Delivery Date to conduct a walkthrough of the Premises with a
representative of Landlord to establish a punch list of items (“Punch List Items”) to be completed
by Landlord within thirty (30) days thereafter, provided, however, that if Landlord is unable,
despite using its commercially reasonable efforts to complete such Punch List Items within such
thirty (30) day, then Landlord shall be afforded such additional time as is reasonably necessary to
allow Landlord to complete such Punch List Items, provided that Landlord is diligently prosecuting
the same. The Punch List Items shall be limited to those components of Landlord’s Work set forth on
EXHIBIT H which were not completed as of the Commencement Date. Subject to completion of
the Punch List Items and the first sentence of this Article 11, the taking of possession of the
Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Building were in
satisfactory condition at such time; provided, however that Landlord shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to repair within a commercially reasonable time any latent defect for which
Tenant provides Landlord with notice.
ARTICLE 12
ALTERATIONS
ALTERATIONS
(a) Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements in or to the Premises without
Landlord’s prior written consent, and then only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord.
Tenant agrees that there shall be no construction or partitions or other obstructions which might
interfere with Landlord’s free access to mechanical installations or service facilities of the
Building or interfere with the moving of Landlord’s equipment to or from the enclosures containing
said installations or facilities. All such work shall be done at such times and in such manner as
Landlord may from time to time designate. Tenant covenants and agrees that all work done by Tenant
shall be performed in full compliance with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, regulations and
requirements of all governmental agencies, offices, and boards having
jurisdiction, and in full compliance with the rules, regulations and requirements of the Insurance
Service Offices formerly known as the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau, and of any similar body. Before
commencing any work, Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten days written notice of the proposed
commencement of such work and shall, if required by Landlord, secure at Tenant’s own cost and
expense, a completion and lien indemnity bond, satisfactory to Landlord, for said work. Tenant
further covenants and agrees that any mechanic’s lien filed against the Premises or against the
Building for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to,
Tenant will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within ten days after the filing
thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant. All alterations, additions or improvements upon the
Premises made by either party, including (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) all
wallcovering, built-in cabinet work, paneling and the like, shall, unless Landlord elects
otherwise, become the property of Landlord, and shall remain upon, and be surrendered with the
Premises, as a part thereof, at the end of the term hereof, except that Landlord may, by written
notice to Tenant given at the time Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to the making of such
alteration (provided that Tenant’s request for consent specifically requires Landlord to make an
election at the time of giving its consent), require Tenant to remove all partitions, counters,
railings and the like installed by Tenant, and Tenant shall repair all damage resulting from such
removal or, at Landlord’s option, shall pay to Landlord all costs arising from such removal. Unless
Landlord elects to contract for such service (in which event the cost shall be included in
Operating Expenses), Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole expense, enter into a maintenance agreement for
the service and maintenance of any HVAC units servicing the Premises with a reputable maintenance
service company approved by Landlord. Tenant shall furnish Landlord with copies of all such service
contracts, which shall provide that they may not be canceled or changed without at least 30 days’
prior written notice to Landlord. Without limiting the generality of Section 23.2 hereof, if Tenant, at any time during the term of this Lease or any extensions or renewals thereof,
fails to enter into, maintain or provide Landlord with copies of such maintenance agreement, or to
have such work performed, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), in its sole and
absolute discretion, to obtain such maintenance agreement and/or have such work performed, and at
Landlord’s option, in its sole and absolute discretion, Tenant shall either reimburse Landlord for
the cost of such maintenance agreement or pay the cost of such service directly to the vender, and
in either case, Tenant shall pay an administrative fee of ten percent (10%) of the cost of such
agreement to Landlord for each instance where Landlord obtains such maintenance agreement on behalf
of Tenant, as Additional Rent. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole expense, enter into a service
contract for the washing of all windows (both interior and exterior surfaces) in the Premise with a
contractor approved by Landlord, which contract provides for the periodic washing of all such
windows at least once every six (6) months during the Lease Term. Tenant shall furnish Landlord
with copies of all such service contracts, which shall provide that they may not be canceled or
changed without at least 30 days’ prior written notice to Landlord. Without limiting the generality
of Section 23.2 hereof, if Tenant, at any time during the term of this Lease or any extensions or
renewals thereof, fails to enter into, maintain or provide Landlord with copies of such service
contract, or to have such work performed, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation),
in its sole and absolute discretion, to obtain such service contract and/or have such work
performed, and at Landlord’s option, in its sole and absolute discretion, Tenant shall either
reimburse Landlord for the cost of such service contract or pay the cost of such service directly
to the vender, and in either case,
Tenant shall pay an administrative fee of ten percent (10%) of the cost of such service contract to
Landlord for each instance where Landlord obtains such service contract on behalf of Tenant, as
Additional Rent.
(b) All articles of personal property and all business and trade fixtures, machinery and
equipment, furniture and movable partitions owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense
in the Premises shall be and remain the property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant at any time
during the lease term. If Tenant shall fail to remove all of its effects from the Premises upon
termination of this Lease for any cause whatsoever, Landlord may, at its option, remove the same in
any reasonable manner that Landlord shall choose, and store said effects without liability to
Tenant for loss thereof. In such event, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord upon demand any and all
reasonable expenses incurred in such removal, including court costs and attorneys’ fees and storage
charges on such effects for any length of time that the same shall be in Landlord’s possession.
Landlord may, at its option, without notice, sell said effects, or any of the same, at private sale
and without legal process, for such price as Landlord may obtain and apply the proceeds of such
sale upon any amounts due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord and upon the expense incident to
the removal and sale of said effects.
ARTICLE 13

condition as when received, usual and ordinary wear and tear excepted. Except for Landlord’s Work
and subject to Section 13.2 below, Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, remodel, improve,

Premises or any part thereof. Tenant acknowledges, agrees and affirms that Landlord has made no
representations to Tenant respecting the condition of the Premises or the Building. Without

shall be made and performed: (a) at Tenant’s cost and expense and at such time and in such manner
as Landlord may reasonably designate, (b) by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, (c) so that same shall be at least equal in quality,

or any of the mechanical, electrical, plumbing or other systems in the Building, and (e) in
accordance with the Rules and Regulations attached hereto as EXHIBIT D and all Applicable
Laws. In the event Tenant fails, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, to maintain the Premises
in accordance with the obligations under the Lease, Landlord shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to enter the Premises and perform such maintenance, repairs or refurbishing at Tenant’s
sole cost and expense (including a sum for overhead to Landlord equal to ten percent (10%) of the
cost of the maintenance, repairs or refurbishing). Tenant shall maintain written records of
maintenance and repairs, as required by any Applicable Law, and shall use certified technicians to
perform such maintenance and repairs, as so required. Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord
full and complete copies of all service or maintenance contracts entered into by Tenant for the
Premises.

structural loadbearing columns and walls of the Building, the roof, roof structure, roof membranes
and exterior walls; the utility pipes, wiring and conduits to their point of connection to the
Premises; the sidewalks; and the structural or capital aspects of the parking area so that all of
the foregoing are kept in good order and repair. To the extent any of the foregoing are capital
improvements or capital assets, the same shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section
4.1 (a)(ii)(B)(f). Landlord shall have the right, upon at least thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Tenant, to cause to be performed or provided, as the case may be, as an Operating
Expense, any of Tenant’s obligations set forth in Section 13.1 above. Landlord shall not be liable
for any failure to make any such repairs or to perform any maintenance unless such failure shall
persist for an unreasonable time after written notice of the need of such repairs or maintenance is
given to Landlord by Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to make any repair resulting from (i)
any alteration or modification to the Building or to mechanical equipment within the Building
performed by, or on behalf of, Tenant or to special equipment or systems installed by, or on behalf
of, Tenant, (ii) the installation, use or operation of Tenant’s property, fixtures and equipment,
(iii) the moving of Tenant’s property in or out of the Building or in and about the Premises, (iv)

“Tenant’s Parties”), (vi) fire and other casualty, except as provided by Section 21 of this Lease
or
(vii) condemnation, except as provided in Section 22 of this Lease. Landlord shall have no
obligation to make repairs under this Section 13.2 until a reasonable time after (a) Landlord first
becomes aware of the need for such repairs, or (b) receipt of written notice from Tenant of the
need for such repairs, whichever is earlier. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize the interference to Tenant’s business occasioned by any such work. There shall be no
abatement of Rent during the performance of such work. Except for the Landlord’s Work, Landlord
shall have no obligation during the Term of this Lease to remodel, repair, improve, decorate or
paint any part of the Premises or to clean, repair or replace carpeting or window coverings.
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for injury or damage that may result from any defect in the
construction or condition of the Premises, nor for any damage that may result from interruption of
Tenant’s use of the Premises during any repairs by Landlord. Tenant waives any right to repair the
Premises, the Building and/or the Common Area at the expense of Landlord under any Applicable Laws
including without limitation Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code.

Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s, materialmen’s or other liens to be filed against the
Building, nor against Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises. Landlord shall have the right at
all reasonable times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices which it deems necessary
for protection from such liens. If any such liens are filed, 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 proper, including payments
in satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such lien. Tenant shall pay to Landlord at once, upon
notice by Landlord, any sum paid by Landlord to remove such liens, together with interest at the
maximum rate per annum permitted by law from the date of such payment by Landlord.
ARTICLE 15
ENTRY BY LANDLORD AND RESERVED RIGHTS OF LANDLORD
ENTRY BY LANDLORD AND RESERVED RIGHTS OF LANDLORD
Landlord shall at any and all times have the right to enter the Premises upon twenty-four (24)
hours notice to Tenant (which notice shall not be required in an emergency) for any lawful reason
and/or to undertake the following, without limitation: to inspect the Premises; to supply any

purchasers or tenants; to post notices of nonresponsibility, to alter, improve or repair the
Premises or any other portion of the Building; to install, use, maintain, repair, alter, relocate
or replace any pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, equipment or other facilities in the Common Areas or

record covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Building and/or amendments to existing
CC&Rs which do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises; change the name of the
Building; affix reasonable signs and displays; and, during the last nine (9) months of the Term,
place signs for the rental of and show the Premises to prospective tenants, all without being
deemed guilty of any eviction of Tenant and without abatement of Rent. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord shall not have access to Tenant’s vaults, safes and
similar small confined spaces reasonably designated by Tenant (it being understood that Tenant may
not exclude an entire room or substantial portion thereof), other than in the event of an
emergency, in which case, Landlord shall have access solely for the purpose of addressing such
emergency. Tenant may require that a representative of Tenant accompany Landlord or its contractors
in connection with such access. Landlord may, in order to carry out any of the foregoing purposes,
erect scaffolding and other necessary structures where required by the character of the work to be
performed. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or
interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and
any other loss in, upon and about the Premises. Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key
with which to unlock all doors in the Premises. Landlord shall have the right to use any and all
means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to
the Premises. Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means, or otherwise,
shall not be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into the Premises, or any
eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, and any damages caused on account
thereof shall be paid by Tenant. It is understood and agreed that no provision of this Lease shall
be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as
otherwise expressly agreed herein by Landlord.
ARTICLE 16
UTILITIES AND SERVICES
UTILITIES AND SERVICES
Tenant shall promptly contract for and shall pay, as the same become due, all charges for
water, gas, electricity, telephone, sewer service, waste pick-up and any other utilities, materials
or services furnished directly to or used by Tenant on or about the Premises during the Lease Term,
including, without limitation, (i) meter, use and/or connection fees, hook-up fees, or standby fee
(excluding any connection fees or hook-up fee which relate to making the existing electrical, gas,
and water service available to the Premises as of the Commencement Date), and (ii) penalties for
discontinued or interrupted service. If any utility service is not separately metered to the
Premises, then Tenant shall pay its pro rata share of the cost of such utility service with all
others served by the service not separately metered. However, if Landlord determines that Tenant is
using a disproportionate amount of any utility service not separately metered, then Landlord at its
election may (i) periodically charge Tenant, as Additional Rent, a sum equal to Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the cost of Tenant’s excess use of such
utility service, or (ii) install a separate meter (at Tenant’s expense) to measure the utility
service supplied to the Premises.
ARTICLE 17
BANKRUPTCY
BANKRUPTCY
If Tenant shall file a petition in bankruptcy under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code as
then in effect, or if Tenant shall be adjudicated a bankrupt in involuntary bankruptcy proceedings
and such adjudication shall not have been vacated within thirty days from the date thereof, or if a
receiver or trustee shall be appointed of Tenant’s property and the order appointing such receiver
or trustee shall not be set aside or vacated within thirty days after the entry thereof, or if
Tenant shall assign Tenant’s estate or effects for the benefit of creditors, or if this Lease
shall, by operation of law or otherwise, pass to any person or persons other than
Tenant, then in
any such event Landlord may terminate this Lease, if Landlord so elects, with or without notice of
such election and with or without entry or action by Landlord. In such case, notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Lease, Landlord, in addition to any and all rights and remedies allowed by
law or equity, shall, upon such termination, be entitled to recover damages in the amount provided
in Article 23 hereof. Neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant or by virtue
of any statute or order of any court shall be entitled to possession of the Premises but shall
surrender the Premises to Landlord. Nothing contained herein shall limit or prejudice the right of
Landlord to recover damages by reason of any such termination equal to the maximum allowed by any
statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such
damages are to be proved; whether or not such amount is greater, equal to, or less than the amount
of damages recoverable under the provisions of this Article 17.

Landlord and Landlord’s affiliated entities, and each of their respective members, managers,
partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, successors
and assigns from and against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties,
costs, liabilities, and expenses, including all costs, attorneys’ fees, expenses and liabilities
incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon, arising at
any time during or after the Term as a result (directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (a)
any default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed under the terms
of this Lease, or (b) Tenant’s use of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant’s business or any
activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or any Tenant Party in or about the

obligation shall include, without limitation, any claim by any Tenant Party for any injury or

Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to person in, upon or about the
Premises from any cause whatsoever, except to the extent of Landlord’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The obligations of Tenant under this Article 18 shall survive the termination of this
Lease with respect to any claims or liability arising prior to such termination.

DAMAGE TO TENANT’S PROPERTY
DAMAGE TO TENANT’S PROPERTY
Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for (i) any damage to any property entrusted to
employees of the Building, (ii) loss or damage to any property by theft or otherwise, (iii) any
injury or damage to property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas,
electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Building or from the pipes,
appliances or plumbing work therein or from the roof, street or sub-surface or from any other place
or resulting from dampness or from any other cause whatsoever, except to the extent of Landlord’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for interference
with
light or other incorporeal hereditaments, nor shall Landlord be liable for any damage caused
by latent defect in the Premises or in the Building; provided, however that Landlord shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to repair within a commercially reasonable time any latent defect
for which Tenant provides Landlord with notice. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord in case
of fire or accidents in the Premises or in the Building or of defects therein or in the fixtures or
equipment.
ARTICLE 20 TENANT’S INSURANCE
(a) Tenant shall, during the term hereof and any other period of occupancy, at its sole
cost and expense, keep in full force and effect the following insurance:
(i) Standard form property insurance insuring against the perils of fire, extended
coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended coverage (“All-Risk”) and sprinkler
leakage. This insurance policy shall be upon all property owned by Tenant, for which Tenant is
legally liable or that was installed at Tenant’s expense, and which is located in the Building
including, without limitation, furniture, fittings, installations, fixtures (other than Tenant
improvements installed by Landlord), and any other personal property in an amount not less than
ninety percent (90%) of the full replacement cost thereof. In the event that there shall be a
dispute as to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the decision of Landlord or any
mortgagees of Landlord shall be conclusive. This insurance policy shall also be upon direct or
indirect loss of Tenant’s earnings attributable to Tenant’s inability to use fully or obtain access
to the Premises or Building in an amount as will properly reimburse Tenant. Such policy shall name
Landlord and any mortgagees of Landlord as insured parties, as their respective · interests may
appear.
(ii) Commercial General Liability Insurance insuring Tenant against any liability
arising out of the lease, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises and all areas appurtenant
thereto. Such insurance shall be in the amount of $5,000,000 Combined Single Limit for injury to,
or death of one or more persons in an occurrence, and for damage to tangible property (including
loss of use) in an occurrence, with such liability amount to be adjusted from year to year to
reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index. The policy shall insure the hazards of premises and
operation, independent contractors, contractual liability (covering the Indemnity contained in
Section 18 hereof) and shall (1) name Landlord as an additional insured, and (2) contain a cross
liability provision, and (3) contain a provision that “the insurance provided the Landlord
hereunder shall be primary and non-contributing with any other insurance available to the
Landlord.”
(iii) Workers’ Compensation and Employer’s Liability insurance (as required by state
law).
(iv) Tenant shall obtain and maintain loss of income and extra expense insurance in
amounts as will reimburse Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earnings attributable to all peril
commonly insured against by prudent lessees in the business of Tenant or attributable to prevention
of access to the Premises as a result of such perils.
(v) Any other form or forms of insurance as Tenant or Landlord or any mortgagees of
Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in form, in amounts and for insurance risks
against which a prudent tenant would protect itself.
(b) All policies shall be written in a form satisfactory to Landlord and shall be taken
out with insurance companies holding a General Policyholders Rating of “A” and a Financial Rating
of “X” or better, as set forth in the most current issue of Bests Insurance Guide. Within ten days
after the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of policies or
certificates evidencing the existence of the amounts and forms of coverage satisfactory to
Landlord. No such policy shall be cancelable or reducible in coverage except after thirty days
prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall, within ten days prior to the expiration of such
policies, furnish Landlord with renewals or “binders” thereof, or Landlord may order such insurance
and charge the cost thereof to Tenant as additional rent. If Landlord obtains any insurance that is
the responsibility of Tenant under this section, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written
statement setting forth the cost of any such insurance and showing in reasonable detail the manner
in which it has been computed. All insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant covering the
Premises, including but not limited to contents, fire, and casualty insurance, shall to the extent
permitted by law expressly waive any right on the part of the insurer against the Landlord. The
failure of any insurance policy to include such waiver clause or endorsement shall not affect the
validity of this Lease.
ARTICLE 21
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
21.1 Casualty. If the Premises or Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire or
other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice to Landlord. Within thirty (30) days
after receipt from Tenant of such written notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the
necessary repairs can reasonably be made: (a) within ninety (90) days; (b) in more than ninety (90)
days but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days; or (c) in more than one hundred eighty (180)
days, in each case after the date of the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or
reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed and
Landlord’s non-binding estimate of the time period it would take to obtain such permits based on
the advice of a third party contractor.
21.1.1 Less Than 90 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to such
extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed within ninety (90) days after the
issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or
Premises which was damaged or destroyed, this Lease shall not terminate and, provided that
insurance proceeds are available to pay for the full repair of all damage, Landlord shall repair
the Premises, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant’s
Property which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by or for the benefit of Tenant.
If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord’s repair thereof,
the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the
area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises
that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises) from the
date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to
the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period
the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
21.1.2 Greater Than 90 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to
such extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed in more than ninety (90) days
but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary
repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed,
then Landlord shall have the option of: (a) terminating the Lease effective upon the occurrence of
such damage, in which event the Base Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the
Premises; or (b) electing to repair the Premises, provided insurance proceeds are available to pay
for the full repair of all damage (except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or
replace Tenant’s Property). If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during
Landlord’s repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the
basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of
floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area
of the Premises) from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged
only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the
period the Premises are unfit for occupancy. In the event that Landlord should fail to
substantially complete such repairs within one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of
permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which
was damaged or destroyed (such period to be extended for delays caused by Tenant or because of any
items of Force Majeure, (as hereinafter defined), and Tenant has not reoccupied the Premises,
Tenant shall have the right, as Tenant’s exclusive remedy, within ten (10) days after the
expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day period, and provided that such repairs have not
been substantially completed within such ten (10) day period, to terminate this Lease by delivering
written notice to Landlord as Tenant’s exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights of Tenant hereunder
shall cease and terminate thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of such notice.
21.1.3 Greater Than 180 Days. If the Premises or Building should be so damaged that
rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance
of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises
which was damaged or destroyed, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving
written notice within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord specifying such time period of
repair; and this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates
the Premises. In the event that neither party elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall
commence and prosecute to completion the repairs to the Building or Premises, provided insurance
proceeds are available to pay for the repair of all damage (except that Landlord shall not be
required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant’s Property. If Tenant is required to vacate all or a
portion of the Premises during Landlord’s repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be
abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e.,
the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square
footage of the floor area of the Premises), from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the
Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental
abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period that the Premises
are unfit for occupancy.
21.1.4 Casualty During the Last Year of the Lease Tenn. Notwithstanding any other
provisions hereof, if the Premises or the Building shall be damaged within the last year of the
Lease Term, and if the cost to repair or reconstruct the portion of the Building or the Premises
which was damaged or destroyed shall exceed $100,000, then, irrespective of the time necessary to
complete such repair or reconstruction, Landlord shall have the right, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to terminate the Lease effective upon the occurrence of such damage, in which event the
Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises, unless Tenant exercises its renewal
option within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s notice, in which event the rules set forth in Sections
21.1.1 through 21.1.3 above shall apply. The foregoing right shall be in addition to any other
right and option of Landlord under this Article 21.
21.2 Uninsured Casualty. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay to Landlord any
deductible or retention amount payable under the property insurance for the Building. In the event
that the Premises or any portion of the Building is damaged to the extent Tenant is unable to use
the Premises and such damage is not covered by insurance proceeds received by Landlord or in the
event that the holder of any indebtedness secured by the Premises requires that the insurance
proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord’s option,
in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, either (i) to repair such damage as soon as reasonably
possible at Landlord’s expense, or (ii) to give written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days
after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Landlord’s intention to terminate this Lease as
of the date of the occurrence of such damage. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Lease,
Tenant shall have the right within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice to give written
notice to Landlord of Tenant’s commitment to pay the cost of repair of such damage, in which event
this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Landlord shall make such repairs as soon as
reasonably possible subject to the following conditions: Tenant shall deposit with Landlord
Landlord’s estimated cost of such repairs not later than five (5) business days prior to Landlord’s
commencement of the repair work. If the cost of such repairs exceeds the amount deposited, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord for such excess cost within ten (10) business days after receipt of an
invoice from Landlord. Any amount deposited by Tenant in excess of the cost of such repairs shall
be refunded within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s final payment to Landlord’s contractor. If Tenant
does not give such notice within the ten (10) day period, or fails to make such deposit as
required, Landlord shall have the right, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, to immediately
terminate this Lease to be effective as of the date of the occurrence of the damage.
21.3 Waiver. With respect to any damage or destruction which Landlord is obligated to
repair or may elect to repair, Tenant waives all rights to terminate this Lease pursuant to rights
otherwise presently or hereafter accorded by law, including without limitation any rights granted
under Section 1932, subdivision 2, and Section 1933, of the California Civil Code.
ARTICLE 22
EMINENT DOMAIN
EMINENT DOMAIN
22.1 Total Condemnation. If all of the Premises is condemned by eminent domain,
inversely condemned or sold under threat of condemnation for any public or quasi-public use or
purpose (“Condemned”), this Lease shall terminate as of the earlier of the date the condemning
authority takes title to or possession of the Premises, and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of
termination.
22.2 Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the Premises or the Building is Condemned
and such partial condemnation materially impairs Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for Tenant’s
business, Landlord shall have the option in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion of either (i)
relocating Tenant to comparable space within the Building that is reasonably acceptable to Tenant,
or (ii) if comparable space is not available, or is not reasonably acceptable to Tenant,
terminating this Lease as of the earlier of the date title vests in the condemning authority or as
of the date an order of immediate possession is issued and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of
termination. If such partial condemnation does not materially impair Tenant’s ability to use the
Premises for the business of Tenant, Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to the extent of
any condemnation proceeds recovered by Landlord, excluding the portion thereof lost in such
condemnation, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that after the date of
such title vesting or order of immediate possession Rent shall be adjusted as reasonably determined
by Landlord.
22.3 Award. If the Premises are wholly or partially Condemned, Landlord shall be
entitled to the entire award paid for such condemnation, and Tenant waives any claim to any part of
the award from Landlord or the condemning authority; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right
to make a separate claim against the condemning authority for Tenant’s leasehold improvements,
trade fixtures and any business value arising out of that portion of the Premises that is taken
(excluding any value for the unexpired term of this Lease). No condemnation of any kind shall be
construed to constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant or a breach of any express or
implied covenant of quiet enjoyment. Tenant hereby waives the effect of Sections 1265.120 and
1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
22.4 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of a temporary condemnation not extending
beyond the Term, this Lease shall remain in effect, Tenant shall continue to pay Rent and Tenant
shall receive any award made for such condemnation except damages to any of Landlord’s property. If
a temporary condemnation is for a period which extends beyond the Term, this Lease shall terminate
as of the date of initial occupancy by the condemning authority and any such award shall be
distributed in accordance with the preceding section. If a temporary condemnation remains in effect
at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord the reasonable
cost of performing any obligations required of Tenant with respect to the surrender of the
Premises.
ARTICLE 23
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
23.1 Event of Default. The occurrence of anyone or more of the following events shall
constitute a default (an “Event of Default”) hereunder by Tenant:
(i) The vacation or 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 fifteen (15)
days or longer.
(ii) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or additional rent or any other
payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, where such failure shall continue for a period of
three (3) days after written notice thereof (pursuant to the notice specifications set forth in
Article 7 above, or as may otherwise be required by law, if different than said notice
specifications) 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 regarding unlawful detainer actions.
(iii) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the express or implied
covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than as
specified in Section 23.1 (a)(i) or (ii) above, which failure remains uncured for a thirty (30) day
period after the earlier to occur of: (i) written notice of default from Landlord or (ii) Tenant
becoming aware of such default; provided, however, that in the event such default cannot be cured
within such 30 day period and Tenant has been using its diligent efforts to cure such default
within such 30 day period, then so long as Tenant continues to use its diligent efforts to cure
such default, Tenant shall have an additional fifteen (15) day period to prosecute such cure to
completion.
(iv) (1) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors;
(2) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition
for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (3) the appointment
of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the
Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within
thirty days; or (4) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of
Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease where such seizure is
not discharged within thirty days.
(v) The making of any material misrepresentation or omission by Tenant or any
successor in interest of Tenant in any materials delivered by or on behalf of Tenant to Landlord or
Landlord’s lender pursuant to this Lease.
(vi) The occurrence of an Event of Default set forth in any of the foregoing clauses
(iv) or (v) with respect to any guarantor of this Lease, if applicable.
(vii) At the option of Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, if Tenant
occupies any other space in the Building (the “Other Premises”, provided that the Premises and the
Other Premises are both owned by Landlord at the time of the default), whether by lease, sublease
or assignment (in any case, an “Occupancy Agreement”), the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder shall also be a default or event of default under the Occupancy Agreement and a default
or event of default under such Occupancy Agreement shall be an Event of Default hereunder.
(viii) Any failure of Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease to comply with the terms
of Section 49 hereof.
23.2. Remedies.
23.2.1 Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord
shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant (which notice shall be in lieu
of any notice required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, et seq.) and, on the
date specified in such notice, this Lease shall terminate unless on or before such date all arrears
of Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease and all costs and expenses incurred
by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other Events of
Default at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord.
23.2.2 Repossession. Following termination, without prejudice to other remedies
Landlord may have, Landlord may (i) peaceably re-enter the Premises upon voluntary surrender by
Tenant or remove Tenant therefrom and any other persons occupying the Premises, using such legal
proceedings as may be available; (ii) repossess the Premises or relet the Premises or any part
thereof for such term (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term), at such rental and upon
such other terms and conditions as Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion shall determine, with the
right to make reasonable alterations and repairs to the Premises; and (iii) remove all personal
property therefrom.
23.2.3 Unpaid Rent/Sums Expended by Landlord. Landlord shall have all the rights and
remedies of a landlord provided by Applicable Law, including the right to recover from Tenant: (a)
the worth, at the time of award, of the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of
termination, (b)the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would
have been earned after the date of termination until the time of
award exceeds the amount of loss of
rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (c) 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 award exceeds the
amount of the loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (d) all
unamortized free rent, if any, (e) any and all unamortized sums expended by Landlord for tenant
improvements and leasing commissions, and (f) any other amount, and court costs, necessary to
compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s default. The phrase “worth, at
the time of award,” as used in (a) and (b) above, shall be computed at the Applicable Interest
Rate, and as used in (c) above, 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 %). The items referenced in (d) and (e) shall be amortized on a
straight line basis over the length of the Term of this Lease.
23.2.4 Continuation. Even though an Event of Default may have occurred, this Lease
shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant’s right to possession;
and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the
remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (“lessor” may continue the 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) to recover Rent as it becomes
due. Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may, during the period Tenant is in default, enter
the Premises and relet the same, or any portion thereof, to third parties for Tenant’s account and
Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises,
including, without limitation, brokers’ commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises and like
costs. Reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining Term. Tenant shall
continue to pay the Rent on the date the same is due. No act by Landlord hereunder, including acts
of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon
application of Landlord to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease, shall terminate this Lease
unless Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease. In the event that
Landlord elects to relet the Premises, the rent that Landlord receives from reletting shall be
applied to the payment of, first, any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Rent and
Additional Rent; second, all costs, including maintenance, incurred by Landlord in reletting; and,
third, Base Rent and Additional Rent under this Lease. After deducting the payments referred to
above, any sum remaining from the rental Landlord receives from reletting shall be held by Landlord
and applied in payment of future Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. In no event shall
Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord. If, on the date Rent is due under this
Lease, the rent received from the reletting is less than the Rent due on that date, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord, in addition to the remaining Rent due, all costs, including maintenance, which
Landlord incurred in reletting the Premises that remain after applying the rent received from
reletting as provided hereinabove. So long as this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall have the
right to remedy any default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises, to cause a receiver to
be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to add to the Rent
payable hereunder all of Landlord’s reasonable costs in so doing, including without limitation attorney’s fees and costs, with
interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure. Landlord shall have no
duty to relet the Premises so long as it has other unleased space available in the Building.
23.2.5 Cumulative. Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein or now or
hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and shall not
preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser
amount than the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment
as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of Rent; and Landlord may accept
such payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue
other remedies.
ARTICLE 24
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
24.1 Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 24.4 below, Tenant shall not
voluntarily assign or encumber its interest in this Lease or in the Premises, or sublease all or
any part of the Premises, or allow any other person or entity to occupy or use all or any part of
the Premises, without first obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent. Any assignment, encumbrance
or sublease without Landlord’s prior written consent shall be voidable, at Landlord’s election, and
shall constitute a default and at the option of the Landlord shall result in a termination of this
Lease. No consent to assignment, encumbrance, or sublease shall constitute a further waiver of the
provisions of this section. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of Tenant’s intent to sublease,
encumber or assign this Lease and Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such
written notice, elect one of the following:
(a) Consent to such proposed assignment, encumbrance or sublease;
(b) Refuse such consent, which refusal shall be on reasonable grounds; or
(c) If Tenant intends on assigning the Lease or more than twenty percent (20%) of the Premises
(either once or in the aggregate), then to recapture the entire Premises, or at Landlord’s
election, such part as Tenant desires to sublease or assign, in the sale and absolute discretion of
Landlord.
24.2 As a condition for granting its consent to any assignment, encumbrance or sublease,
thirty (30) days prior to any anticipated assignment or sublease Tenant shall give Landlord and
Landlord’s lender written notice (the “Assignment Notice”), which shall set forth the name, address
and business of the proposed assignee or sublessee, information (including references) concerning
the character, ownership, and financial condition of the proposed assignee or sublessee, and the
anticipated date of the sublease or assignment, any ownership or commercial relationship between
Tenant and the proposed assignee or sublessee, and the consideration of all other material terms
and conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease, all in such detail as Landlord shall
reasonably require. If Landlord reasonably requests additional detail, the Assignment Notice shall
not be deemed to have been received until Landlord receives such additional detail, and Landlord
may withhold consent to any assignment or sublease until such additional detail is provided to it.
If any event of Default occurs hereunder, Landlord may require that the sublessee or assignee remit
directly to Landlord on a monthly basis, all monies due to Tenant by said assignee or sublessee.
24.3 The consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not be construed as
relieving Tenant or any assignee of this Lease or sublessee of the Premises from obtaining the
express written consent of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting or as releasing Tenant
or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant from any liability or obligation hereunder whether or not
then accrued. Regardless of whether or not Landlord shall consent to an assignment or sublease,
Tenant shall pay Landlord all of Landlord’s attorneys’ fees and administrative costs incurred in
connection with evaluating the Assignment Notice immediately upon demand. This section shall be
fully applicable to all further sales, hypothecations, transfers, assignments and
subleases
of any portion of the Premises by any successor or assignee of Tenant, or any sublessee
of the Premises.
24.4 As used in this section, the subletting of substantially all of the Premises for
substantially all of the remaining term of this Lease shall be deemed an assignment rather than a
sublease. The assignment, sale or transfer of more than a forty-nine percent (49%) (either once in
the aggregate) interest in Tenant shall be deemed an assignment requiring Landlord’s consent
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s consent shall not be required if the Tenant
desires to assign the Lease to any entity: (i) which by virtue of equity ownership controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or (ii) into which Tenant is merged, with
which Tenant is consolidated or which acquires all or substantially all of the assets, stock or
other equity interests of Tenant, provided that the assignee first executes, acknowledges and
delivers to Landlord an agreement whereby the assignee agrees to be bound by all of the covenants
and agreements in this Lease which Tenant has agreed to keep, observe or perform, that the assignee
agrees that the provisions of this section shall be binding upon it as if it were the original
Tenant hereunder, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and that the assignee
shall have a net worth (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied) immediately after such assignment which is at least equal to the net worth (as so
determined) of Tenant at the commencement of this Lease, and Tenant shall provide reasonable
evidence of the same to Landlord for Landlord’s approval.
24.5 Except as provided above, Landlord’s consent to any sublease shall not be unreasonably
withheld. A condition to such consent shall be delivery by Tenant to Landlord of a true copy of the
sublease in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. If for any proposed assignment
or sublease Tenant receives rent or other consideration, either initially or over the term of the
assignment or sublease, in excess of the Rent called for hereunder, or, in case of the sublease of
a portion of the Premises, in excess of such rent fairly allocable to such portion, after
appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments called for hereunder are taken into
account, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent hereunder seventy five percent (75%) of
the excess of each such payment of rent or other consideration received by Tenant promptly after
its receipt, after deducting the following costs and expenses to the extent the same are reasonably
and actually incurred by Tenant as third party out of pocket expenses and are for the assignment or
sublease at issue: (i) Tenant’s cost of any new tenant improvements which are made pursuant to the
terms of this Lease and which are market tenant improvements, (ii) market brokerage commissions,
and (iii) reasonable attorneys’ fees not to exceed $2,500.00 per instance of subletting or
assignment. Landlord’s waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall not relieve Tenant
from any obligation under this lease. For the purpose of this section, the Rent for each square
foot of floor space in the Premises shall be deemed equal.
ARTICLE 25
SUBORDINATION; MORTGAGEE PROTECTION
SUBORDINATION; MORTGAGEE PROTECTION
25.1 Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all ground leases,
master leases and the lien of all mortgages and deeds of trust which now or hereafter affect the
Premises or the Building or Landlord’s interest therein, the CC&Rs and all amendments thereto, all
without the necessity of Tenant’s executing further instruments to effect such subordination.
If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord’s
request whatever documentation that may reasonably be required to further effect the provisions of
this section including, without limitation, a Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment
Agreement in such form as may be required by Landlord’s lender. Should any holder of a mortgage or
deed of trust request that this Lease and Tenant’s rights hereunder be made superior, rather than
subordinate, to the mortgage or deed of trust, then Tenant will, within ten (10) days after written
request, execute and deliver such agreement as may be required by such holder in order to
effectuate and evidence such superiority of the Lease to the mortgage or deed of trust.
25.2 Attornment. Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant will recognize as its landlord under
this Lease and shall attorn to any person succeeding to the interest of Landlord in respect of the
land and the buildings governed by this Lease upon any foreclosure of any mortgage upon such land
or buildings or upon the execution of any deed in lieu of foreclosure in respect to such deed of
trust. If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming its
attornment as provided for herein; provided, however, that no such beneficiary or

way of service on Tenant of a copy of assignment of rents and leases or otherwise) of the address
of such lender or such holder of a mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant further agrees that if
Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within sixty (60) days after such notice to
Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional
time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced within such sixty (60) day period and is
diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then
Landlord’s lender or the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust shall have an additional ninety
(90) days within which to cure or correct such default (or if such default cannot be cured or

pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event shall Landlord’s lender or any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust have
any obligation to cure any default of the Landlord.

present (and any future) lender a form of subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement
reasonably satisfactory to Tenant, Landlord and such lender. Tenant shall be responsible for the

DEFINITION OF LANDLORD
DEFINITION OF LANDLORD
The term “Landlord”, as used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations on the part of
Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners, at the time
in question, of the fee title of the Premises or the lessees under any ground lease, if any. In the
event of any transfer, assignment or other conveyance or transfers of any such title, Landlord
herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be
automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer, assignment or
conveyance of all liability as respects the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part
of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed. Without further agreement, the
transferee of such title shall be deemed to have assumed and agreed to observe and perform any and
all obligations of Landlord hereunder, during its ownership of the Premises. Landlord may transfer
its interest in the Premises without the consent of Tenant and such transfer or subsequent transfer
shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord’s part of any of the terms and conditions of this
Lease. In the event of such transfer, Landlord shall transfer Tenant’s Security Deposit (or so much
thereof that has not been applied by Landlord as permitted hereunder) to such transferee.
ARTICLE 36
WAIVER
WAIVER
The waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein
contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other
term, covenant or condition herein contained, nor shall any custom or practice which may grow up
between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof be deemed a waiver of or in any way
affect the right of Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the performance by the other party in strict
accordance with said terms. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant or any term, covenant or condition of this
Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of
Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be
a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any provision hereof, other than the failure of
Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that the foregoing
provides actual and sufficient knowledge to Tenant, pursuant to California Code of Procedure
Section 1161.1(c), that acceptance of a partial rent payment by Landlord does not constitute a
waiver of any of Landlord’s rights under said Section 1161.1(c).

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Prior to the date hereof, Tenant has delivered certain Financial Information (as hereinafter
defined) to Landlord and Landlord has relied to a material extent on such financial information in
agreeing to lease the Premises to Tenant. Tenant represents, warrants, certifies and covenants to
Landlord that: (i) all of the financial information (other than future projections, if any)
(collectively, “Financial Information”) delivered by Tenant to Landlord prior to the date hereof is
true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date of such Financial Information;
(ii) the Financial Information accurately represents the financial condition of the Tenant as of

then Tenant does not have any audited financial statements for the three (3) calendar and/or fiscal
years preceding the date hereof; (iv) the Financial Information was prepared using generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied; and (v) Tenant has delivered to Landlord all
material information in Tenant’s possession and/or control concerning the financial condition of

copies of Tenant’s then most recent Financial Information, and if available, such Financial
Information delivered to Landlord shall have been audited. Any failure by Tenant to deliver its
then most recent financial Information within ten (10) business days (which shall be in lieu of any
grace period set forth herein, if any) after a written request by Landlord to Tenant or if any
Financial Information delivered by Tenant to Landlord is not true, correct and complete as of the

ARTICLE 50
OPTION TO RENEW
OPTION TO RENEW
(a) Subject to the terms of this Article 50 and provided that no Event of Default has
occurred, Tenant shall have one (1) option to extend (“Renewal Option”) the Term of this Lease for
SIXTY (60) months commencing upon the expiration of the initial Term of the Lease
(“Extension Term”). In the event Tenant elects to exercise its option to extend the Lease Term by
the Extension Term, as provided hereunder, Tenant shall provide Landlord irrevocable written notice
of such election, no earlier than three hundred sixty five (365) days and no later than two hundred
seventy (270) days prior to the then-existing expiration date of the Term of this Lease. Except for
Base Rent, the terms and conditions of this Lease during the Extension Term shall be identical to
the terms and conditions of this Lease. Base Rent for the Extension Term shall be adjusted to be
equal to the higher of (a) one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market rental value (“FMV”) for
comparable properties in Mountain View, California, as of the commencement of the Extension Term,
as such FMV is determined as set forth in Article 56(b) below, or (b) the Base Rent Tenant is
scheduled to pay during the last month of the Term of this Lease.
(b) In the event Tenant timely exercises the Renewal Option, Landlord shall, within twenty
(20) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice exercising the Renewal Option, notify Tenant of
Landlord’s good faith determination of the Base Rent for the Extension Term (the “Landlord’s Option
Rent Response”). Tenant shall accept or reject Landlord’s Option Rent Response by notice to
Landlord within ten (10) business days following receipt of Landlord’s Option Rent Response. If
Tenant fails to object to Landlord’s Option Rent Response within such time period, then Landlord’s
determination of FMV set forth in the Landlord’s Option Rent Response shall be conclusive and
binding. If Tenant does not accept Landlord’s Option Rent Response, then Landlord and Tenant shall
attempt to agree upon the Base Rent for the Extension Term (“Option Rent”), using their good faith
efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement on the Option Rent within ten (10) business
days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Option Rent Response, then within five (5) business
days after demand by either Landlord or Tenant, each party shall simultaneously present to the
other and certify to each other such party’s final offer regarding the Option Rent for the
Extension Term (each, a “Last Offer”). If the parties fail to agree on the Option Rent within ten
(10) business days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Option Rent Response, such Last Offers
shall be submitted to arbitration by Landlord and/or Tenant (the “Arbitration Demand”) in
accordance with Article 56(b)(i) through (b)(viii), below and in accordance with the then existing
Rules for Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association, or its successor.
(i) Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one (1) arbitrator (each, an “Original
Arbitrator”) who shall be a real estate broker with at least ten (10) years experience in the
leasing of similar properties in Mountain View, California. Original Arbitrators shall be appointed
within fifteen (15) days after the Arbitration Demand.
(ii) The two Original Arbitrators so appointed shall within ten (10) days of the date of
the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator
(“Neutral Arbitrator”; and together with the Original Arbitrators, the “Arbitration Panel”). The
Neutral Arbitrator shall be an appraiser certified as an “MAI” or “ASA” appraiser who has had at
least five (5) years experience within the previous ten (10) years as a real estate appraiser of
commercial office properties in Mountain View, California. For purposes hereof, an “MAI” appraiser
means an individual who holds an MAI designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the
American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor organization, or in the event there
is no successor organization, the organization and designation
most similar), and an “ASA” appraiser means an individual who holds the Senior Member designation
conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Society of Appraisers (or its successor
organization, or, in the event there is no successor organization, the organization and designation
most similar).
(iii) The sole role of the Arbitration Panel shall be to determine the FMV for the Extension
Term. In determining the FMV, the Arbitration Panel shall take into account the following: (A) the
Arbitration Demand; (B) the annual rent per rentable square foot that Landlord has accepted in
other current similar transactions in the Building, (C) what the Landlord has accepted in other
current similar transactions in the properties owned by Landlord and adjoining the Building, and
(D) what a willing, comparable, renewal, non-equity tenant would pay, and what a willing comparable
landlord in the Mountain View area would accept at arms length, in either case, giving appropriate
consideration to all economic benefits achievable by Landlord, such as monthly Base Rent (including
periodic adjustments), Additional Rent in the form of Direct Expense reimbursements, and any and
all monetary or non-monetary concessions including, without limitation, any Renewal Concessions (as
hereinafter defined), if any, that may be given in the market place to a comparable renewal tenant,
as is chargeable for a similar use of comparable space for a comparable term in a comparable office
building in a comparable location in the Mountain View area. As used herein, the term Renewal
Concessions shall mean the following: (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, provided in
connection with such comparable space; and (b) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be
provided for such comparable space, taking into account, and deducting the value of, the existing
improvements in the Premises, such value to be based upon the age, quality and layout of the
improvements and such value to be based upon the age, quality and layout of the improvements and
the extent to which the same can be utilized by Tenant based upon the fact that the tenant
improvements existing in the Premises are specifically suitable to Tenant; provided, however, that
in calculating the FMV, no consideration shall be given to any period of rent abatement given such
tenants in connection with the construction of improvements in such comparable space. If, in
determining the FMV, a tenant improvement allowance is granted under item (b) above, Landlord may,
at Landlord’s sole option, elect any of a portion of the following: (1) to grant some or all of the
Renewal Concessions to Tenant in the form as described above (i.e., as an improvement allowance),
or (2) to adjust the rental rate component of the FMV to be an effective rental rate which takes
into consideration the total dollar value of such Renewal Concession (in which case to the extent
the Renewal Concession is evidenced in the effective rental rate, it shall not be granted to
Tenant).
(iv) If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an Original Arbitrator within fifteen
(15) days after the other party’s Arbitration Demand, then the first appointed Original Arbitrator
shall select a Last Offer to serve as the Option Rent for the Extension Term using the same
criteria applicable in case of a Neutral Arbitrator under Article 55 (b)(iii) above.
(v) If the two (2) Original Arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a Neutral
Arbitrator, or if both parties fail to appoint an Original Arbitrator, then the Neutral Arbitrator
shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association, or a successor entity.
(vi) If the actual FMV of the Premises as determined by the Arbitration Panel is greater
than Landlord’s determination or differs from Landlord’s determination of FMV as set forth in the
Last Offer by five percent (5%) or less, the costs of arbitration pursuant to this Article shall be
paid by Tenant. If the actual FMV of the Premises as determined by the Arbitration Panel is less
than Landlord’s determination of FMV as set forth in the Last Offer by greater than five (5%), the
costs of arbitration shall be paid by Landlord.
(viii) In the event that the Option Rent has not been determined pursuant to the terms
hereof prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant shall be required to pay the Option
Rent at the lesser of Landlord’s Last Offer or one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent in
effect at the end of the immediately preceding Renewal Term. Upon the final determination of the
Option Rent, the payments made by Tenant shall be reconciled with the actual amounts of Option Rent
due, and the appropriate party shall make any corresponding payment to the other party.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, Tenant shall have no right to
exercise the Renewal Option (or if the Renewal Option is exercised, but the following conditions
are not satisfied, then the exercise of the Renewal Option shall be void) if: (i) there has been
any materially adverse change in the financial condition of the Tenant as of the Commencement Date,
or (ii) if the net worth (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied) of the Tenant at the time it desires to exercise the Renewal Option or as of
the commencement date of the Extension Term is less than Seventy Five
Million and No/100 Dollars
($75,000,000). Tenant shall be required, as a condition precedent to the Renewal Option being
validly exercised, to provide evidence (which shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord) that the
foregoing conditions have been satisfied. Additionally, it shall be a condition precedent to
exercise of the Renewal Option that Landlord and Tenant execute and deliver and amendment to this
Lease not later than thirty (30) days after the exercise by Tenant of the Renewal Option.
(d) No later than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant
shall deposit with Landlord an amount, that when taken together with the Security Deposit, equals
the Base Rent due for the last month of the Extension Term (“Additional Deposit”). Upon the
commencement of the Extension Term, the term “Security Deposit” shall automatically include the
“Additional Deposit” and the Additional Deposit shall be held pursuant to the terms of Article 5
hereof. If Tenant fails to deposit the Additional Deposit as and when required hereunder, Tenant’s
exercise of the Renewal Option shall be null and void and the Term of the Lease shall expire
naturally expire.
ARTICLE 51
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Tenant shall not cause nor permit, nor allow any Tenant Party to cause or permit, any
Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, stored, manufactured, generated, blended, handled,
recycled, treated, disposed or used on, under or about the Premises, the Building, the Common Area
or the Project, except for the items listed on Exhibit I attached hereto (and not to exceed
the amounts shown therein) and routine office and janitorial supplies in usual and customary
quantities stored, used and disposed of in accordance with all applicable Environmental Laws.
Should Tenant wish to use, generate or store Hazardous Materials on or about the Premises,
including, without limitation, those items listed on Exhibit I, Tenant shall complete,
execute and deliver to Landlord an Environmental Disclosure Statement (the “Environmental
Disclosure”) in the form of Exhibit J, and Tenant shall certify to Landlord all information
contained in the Environmental Disclosure as true and correct to the best of Tenant’s knowledge and
belief. The completed Environmental Disclosure shall be deemed incorporated into this Lease for all
purposes, and Landlord shall be entitled to rely fully on the information contained therein. In the
event Tenant provides an Environmental Disclosure, on each anniversary of the Commencement Date
(each such date is hereinafter referred to as a “Disclosure Date”), until and including the first
Disclosure Date occurring after the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
disclose to Landlord, in writing, the names and amounts of all Hazardous Materials, or any
combination thereof, which were stored, generated, used or disposed of on, under or about the
Premises for the twelve-month period prior to and after each Disclosure Date, or which Tenant
intends to store, generate, or use on, under or about the Premises. At Landlord’s option, Tenant
shall, execute and deliver to Landlord an Environmental Disclosure as the same may be modified by
Landlord from time to time whether or not Tenant wishes to use, generate or store Hazardous
Materials on or about the Premises. Tenant and Tenant’s Parties shall comply with all Environmental
Laws and promptly notify Landlord in writing of the violation of any Environmental Law or presence
of any Hazardous Materials, other than office and janitorial supplies as permitted above, on the
Premises. Landlord shall have the right to enter upon and inspect the Premises and to conduct
tests, monitoring and investigations. If such tests indicate the presence of any environmental
condition caused or exacerbated by Tenant or any Tenant Party or arising during Tenant’s or any Tenant Party’s occupancy, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for the cost of conducting such tests. The phrase “environmental condition” shall mean any
adverse condition relating to any Hazardous Materials or the environment, including surface water,
groundwater, drinking water supply, land, surface or subsurface strata or the ambient air and
includes air, land and water pollutants, noise, vibration, light and odors. In the event of any
such environmental condition, Tenant shall promptly take any and all steps necessary to rectify the
same to the satisfaction of the applicable agencies and Landlord, or shall, at Landlord’s election,
reimburse Landlord, upon demand, for the cost to Landlord of performing rectifying work. Landlord
shall competitively bid for the cost of performing said rectifying work. The reimbursement shall be
paid to Landlord in advance of Landlord’s performing such work, based upon Landlord’s reasonable
estimate of the cost thereof; and upon completion of such work by Landlord, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord any shortfall within thirty (30) days after Landlord bills Tenant therefor or Landlord
shall within thirty (30) days refund to Tenant any excess deposit, as the case may be. Tenant shall
indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and
Landlord’s affiliated entities, and each of their respective members, managers, partners,
directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, along with the
successors and assigns of the foregoing, (individually and collectively, “Indemnitees”) from and
against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties, fines, taxes,
costs,
liabilities, losses and expenses arising at any time during or after the Term as a result (directly
or indirectly) of or in connection with (a) Tenant and/or any Tenant Party’s breach of this Article
51 or (b) the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises or other property as
a result (directly or indirectly) of Tenant’s and/or any
Tenant Party’s activities, or failure to act, in connection with the Premises. This indemnity shall
include, without limitation, the cost of any required or necessary repair, cleanup or
detoxification, and the preparation and implementation of any closure, monitoring or other required
plans, whether such action is required or necessary prior to or following the termination of this
Lease. Neither the written consent by Landlord to the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under or
about the Premises, nor the strict compliance by Tenant with all Environmental Laws, shall excuse
Tenant from Tenant’s obligation of indemnification pursuant hereto. Tenant’s obligations pursuant
to the foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
