(a) Tenant shall, before interest or penalties are

franchise, sales and rent taxes), all charges for any easement or agreement
maintained for the benefit of any of the Leased Premises, all assessments and
levies, all permit, inspection and license fees, all rents and charges for
water, sewer, utility and communication services relating to any of the Leased
Premises, and all other public charges whether of a like or different nature,
even if unforeseen or extraordinary, which arise during the Term and are imposed
upon or assessed against (i) Tenant, (ii) Tenant's leasehold interest in the
Leased Premises, (iii) any of the Leased Premises, (iv) Landlord as a result of
or arising in respect of the acquisition, ownership, occupancy, leasing, use or
possession of any of the Leased Premises, any activity conducted on any of the
Leased Premises, or the Rent, or (v) any Lender by reason of any Note, Mortgage,
Assignment or other document evidencing or securing a Loan and which (as to this
clause (v)) a borrower would customarily agree to pay (collectively, the
"Impositions"); provided, that nothing herein shall obligate Tenant to pay (A)
income, excess profits or other taxes of Landlord (or Lender) which are
determined on the basis of Landlord's (or Lender's) net income or net worth
(unless such taxes are in lieu of or a substitute for any other tax, assessment
or other charge upon or with respect to the Leased Premises which, if it were in
effect, would be payable by Tenant under the provisions hereof or by the terms
of such tax, assessment or other charge), (B) any estate, inheritance,
succession, gift or similar tax imposed on Landlord or (C) any capital gains,
transfer or deed tax imposed on Landlord in connection with the sale, exchange
or other disposition of the Leased Premises to any Person, except that Tenant
shall be responsible to pay any increase in real estate taxes and assessments
that are imposed as a result of a change of ownership of the Leased Premises
-12-
15
occurring after the tenth (10th) Lease Year, but not with respect to any change
of ownership occurring prior thereto. If any Imposition may be paid in
installments without interest or penalty, Tenant shall have the option to pay
such Imposition in installments; in such event, Tenant shall be liable only for
those installments which accrue or become due and payable during the Term.
Tenant shall prepare and file all tax reports required by governmental
authorities which relate to the Impositions. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord
(1) copies of all settlements and notices pertaining to the Impositions which
may be issued by any governmental authority within twenty (20) days after
Tenant's receipt thereof, (2) satisfactory evidence (which may be written notice
from a tax service acceptable to Landlord and Lender) of payment of all taxes
required to be paid by Tenant hereunder no later than thirty (30) days following
the date the same would become delinquent, showing the same to have been paid
prior to delinquency and (3) receipts for payment of all other Impositions
promptly following Landlord's request therefor.
(b) Landlord shall have the right, (i) following the
occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to Escrow Charges described in
clause (A) of the following sentence and (ii) if Landlord or Lender determines
that the Leased Premises are not being maintained in accordance with current
standards for similarly situated office buildings prudently managed so that the
condition of the Leased Premises is not as required by Paragraph 12 (a) hereof,
to require Tenant to pay to Landlord, or to Lender if directed by Landlord, an
additional monthly sum (each an "Escrow Payment") sufficient to pay the Escrow
Charges (as hereinafter defined) as they become due. As used herein, "Escrow
Charges" shall mean (A) real estate taxes on the Leased Premises or payments in
lieu thereof and premiums on any insurance required by this Lease, and (B)
amounts required by a Lender on the basis of an inspection of the Leased
Premises or as otherwise reasonably determined by Lender which shall be
deposited in a reserve or reserves such as a capital improvement reserve, a
replacement reserve and/or a repair reserve (such amounts in this clause (B)
collectively referred to as "Reserve Funds"). Landlord shall determine the
amount of the Escrow Charges and of each Escrow Payment. As long as the Escrow
Payments are being held by Landlord the Escrow Payments shall not be commingled
with other funds of Landlord or other Persons and interest thereon shall accrue
for the benefit of Tenant from the date such monies are received and invested
until the date such monies are disbursed to pay Escrow Charges. If the Escrow
Payments are held by the Lender, they shall be held and administered in
accordance with Lender's customary procedures for similar accounts. Landlord
shall apply the Escrow Payments to the payment of the Escrow Charges in such
order or priority as Landlord shall determine or as required by law; provided,
however, that any Reserve Funds shall only be used for improvements or repairs
for which such Reserve Funds have been deposited, and any remaining balance of
any such Reserve Funds shall be disbursed to Tenant at such time as such
improvements or repairs have been completed so long as no Event of Default then
exists. If at any time the Escrow Payments theretofore paid to Landlord shall be
insufficient for the payment of the Escrow Charges, Tenant, within fifteen (15)
days after Landlord's demand therefor, shall pay the amount of the deficiency to
Landlord.
10. Compliance with Laws and Easement Agreements; Environmental
Matters.
(a) Tenant shall, at its expense, comply with and
conform to, and cause the Leased Premises and any other Person occupying any
part of the Leased Premises to comply with and conform to, all Insurance
Requirements and Legal Requirements (including all applicable Environmental
Laws). Tenant shall not at any time (i) cause, permit or suffer to occur any
Environmental Violation. or (ii) permit any sublessee, assignee or other Person
occupying the Leased Premises under or through Tenant to cause, permit or suffer
to occur any Environmental Violation and, at the request of Landlord or Lender,
Tenant shall promptly remediate or undertake any other appropriate response
action to correct any existing Environmental Violation. Tenant shall permit
Persons who are potentially responsible (any such Person, a "PRP") for existing
Environmental Violations on upgradient properties and their agents
-13-
16
access to the Leased Premises for the purpose of conducting Site Assessments
upon and remediation to the Leased Premises. Tenant shall upon Landlord's or
Lender's request provide Landlord and Lender with copies of all filings which
Tenant is required to submit to governmental agencies and all permits, licenses
and certificates which Tenant is required to obtain from governmental agencies,
in both cases with respect to the Leased Premises. Tenant shall give prompt
notice to Landlord and Lender of receipt by Tenant of any notice related to any
Legal Requirements and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations
which relate to compliance with Legal Requirements. Any and all reports prepared
for or by Landlord with respect to the Leased Premises shall be for the sole
benefit of Landlord and Lender and no other Person shall have the right to rely
on any such reports.
(b) Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, will at all
times promptly and faithfully abide by, discharge and perform all of the
covenants, conditions and agreements contained in any Easement Agreement on the
part of Landlord or the occupier to be kept and performed thereunder and shall
enter into access agreements for the purposes described in the foregoing
Paragraph 10(a), such agreements to be subject to the reasonable approval of
Landlord. Tenant will not alter, modify, amend or terminate any Easement
Agreement, give any consent or approval thereunder, or enter into any new
Easement Agreement without, in each case, the prior written consent of Landlord,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (provided, however, that
Landlord hereby consents to the Site Access Agreement dated March 21, 1997
between AMD International Sales & Service, Ltd., and Advanced Micro Devices,
Inc. and 999 Arques Corporation and consents to the Site Access Agreement dated
March 17, 1997 between AMD International Sales & Service, Ltd. and Advanced
Micro Devices, Inc. and CAE Electronics Inc.). Landlord shall cooperate with
Tenant with respect to the creation of easements and/or rights of way for
ingress and egress to and from the Leased Premises or in favor of municipal or
other governmental authorities or public service or utility companies for the
installation of water lines, sewers, electricity, telephone, gas, steam or
easements for other facilities and utilities reasonably required for the use and
occupancy of the Leased Premises.
(c) Upon prior written notice from Landlord, Tenant
shall permit such persons as Landlord may designate (who shall be a regional or
national environmental audit firm designated by Lender and who shall be Xxxxxxx
Consulting or another firm reasonably acceptable to Tenant) ("Site Reviewers")
to visit the Leased Premises and perform environmental site investigations,
audits and assessments ("Site Assessments") on the Leased Premises for the
purpose of determining whether there exists on the Leased Premises any
Environmental Violation or any condition which could result in any Environmental
Violation. Such Site Assessments may include both above and below the ground
testing for Environmental Violations and such other tests as may be necessary,
in the reasonable opinion of the Site Reviewers, to conduct the Site
Assessments; provided, however, that any such testing to be undertaken in
connection with any Site Assessment shall be conducted in such a manner as to
minimize any interference with Tenant's business operations at the Leased
Premises; and provided, further, that such Site Assessments shall not be
conducted more frequently than once every 24 months unless Landlord is required
to undertake a Site Assessment as a condition of obtaining financing or
refinancing, or in connection with a sale of the Leased Premises or if required
by a Lender. In such cases, the Site Assessment may be conducted by Landlord at
any time. The Site Assessment shall be limited to a visual inspection and review
of records unless (i) Landlord or Lender has reasonable cause to believe that an
Environmental Violation exists at the Leased Premises; (ii) intrusive testing is
required to be undertaken as a condition of Landlord obtaining financing or
refinancing or of a proposed sale of the Leased Premises or if required by a
Lender; or (iii) such testing is conducted within nine (9) months of the
expiration of the Lease Term, in which case such Site Assessment may include the
testing described above. Tenant shall supply to the Site Reviewers such
historical and operational information regarding the Leased Premises as may be
reasonably requested by the Site Reviewers to facilitate the Site Assessments,
and shall make available for meetings with the Site Reviewers appropriate
personnel having
-14-
17
knowledge of such matters. The reasonable cost of performing and reporting Site
Assessments shall be paid by Tenant, except that Tenant shall not be responsible
to pay the cost of performing and reporting Site Assessments required in
connection with any sale of the Leased Premises.
(d) If an Environmental Violation (other than ground
water contamination which has migrated to the Leased Premises from off-site
sources unless Tenant is or has been required by a governmental authority to
remediate such contamination) occurs or is found to exist and, in Landlord's
reasonable judgment, the cost of remediation of, or other response action with
respect to, the same is likely to exceed $1,000,000 and at the time of such
remediation Tenant does not have a publicly traded, unsecured senior debt rating
of "Baa2" or better from Xxxxx'x or a rating of "BBB" or better from S&P, Tenant
shall provide to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after Landlord's request
therefor, adequate financial assurances that Tenant will effect such remediation
in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws. Such financial assurances
shall be a bond or letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to Landlord in form
and substance and in an amount equal to or greater than Landlord's reasonable
estimate, based upon a Site Assessment performed pursuant to Paragraph 10(c), of
the anticipated cost of such remedial action.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Lease, if an Environmental Violation occurs (other than ground water
contamination which has migrated to the Leased Premises from off-site sources
unless Tenant is or has been required by a governmental authority to remediate
such contamination) or is found to exist and the Term would otherwise terminate
or expire, then, at the option of Landlord, the Term shall be automatically
extended beyond the date of termination or expiration and this Lease shall
remain in full force and effect beyond such date until the earlier to occur of
(i) the completion of all remedial action in accordance with applicable
Environmental Laws or (ii) one (1) year from the date on which this Lease would
otherwise terminate or expire so long as on or before such date Tenant deposits
with Landlord an amount determined by the Site Reviewer to be reasonably
required to complete such remediation.
(f) If Tenant fails to correct any Environmental
Violation which occurs or is found to exist, Landlord shall have the right (but
no obligation) to take any and all actions as Landlord shall deem reasonably
necessary or advisable in order to cure such Environmental Violation.
(g) Tenant shall notify Landlord promptly after
becoming aware of any Environmental Violation (or alleged Environmental
Violation) or noncompliance with any of the covenants contained in this
Paragraph 10 and shall forward to Landlord immediately upon receipt thereof
copies of all orders, reports, notices, permits, applications or other
communications relating to any such violation or noncompliance.
(h) All future leases, subleases or concession
agreements relating to the Leased Premises entered into by Tenant shall contain
covenants of the other party not to at any time (i) cause any Environmental
Violation to occur or (ii) permit any Person occupying the Leased Premises
through said subtenant or concessionaire to cause any Environmental Violation to
occur.
11. Liens; Recording.
(a) Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly whether
by any act or omission, create or permit to be created or to remain and shall
promptly discharge or remove any lien, levy or encumbrance on any of the Leased
Premises or on any Rent or any other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease,
other than any Mortgage or Assignment, the Permitted Encumbrances and any
mortgage, lien, encumbrance or other charge created by or resulting from
-15-
18
any act or omission of Landlord. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT LANDLORD SHALL NOT
BE LIABLE FOR ANY LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIALS FURNISHED OR TO BE FURNISHED TO
TENANT OR TO ANYONE HOLDING OR OCCUPYING ANY OF THE LEASED PREMISES THROUGH OR
UNDER TENANT, AND THAT NO MECHANICS' OR OTHER LIENS FOR ANY SUCH LABOR, SERVICES
OR MATERIALS SHALL ATTACH TO OR AFFECT THE INTEREST OF LANDLORD IN AND TO ANY OF
THE LEASED PREMISES. LANDLORD MAY AT ANY TIME, AND AT LANDLORD'S REQUEST TENANT
SHALL PROMPTLY, POST ANY NOTICES ON THE LEASED PREMISES REGARDING SUCH
NON-LIABILITY OF LANDLORD.
(b) Landlord and Tenant shall execute, acknowledge,
deliver and record, file or register (collectively, "record") all such
instruments as may be required or permitted by any present or future Law in
order to evidence the respective interests of Landlord and Tenant in the Leased
Premises, and shall cause a memorandum of this Lease (or, if such a memorandum
cannot be recorded, this Lease), and any supplement hereto or thereto, to be
recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required or permitted by
any present or future Law in order to protect the validity and priority of this
Lease.
12. Maintenance and Repair.
(a) Tenant shall at all times maintain the Leased
Premises and the Adjoining Property in as good repair and appearance as they are
in on the date hereof and after completion of any deferred maintenance items
required by Initial Lender and fit to be used for their intended use in
accordance with the better of the practices generally recognized as then
acceptable by other companies in its industry or the then current standards for
similarly situated office buildings prudently managed, and, in the case of the
Equipment, in as good mechanical condition as it was on the later of the date
hereof or the date of its installation, except for ordinary wear and tear.
Tenant shall take every other action necessary or appropriate for the
preservation and safety of the Leased Premises. Tenant shall make all
Alterations of every kind and nature, whether foreseen or unforeseen, which may
be required to comply with the foregoing requirements of this Paragraph 12(a)
whether disclosed by Landlord or Tenant or as a consequence of any inspection by
Lender promptly after the need for such Alterations becomes known to Landlord or
Tenant. Any Alterations required to be made as a result of any inspection by
Lender shall be commenced within thirty (30) days from receipt of notice from
Landlord or Lender and thereafter diligently pursued to completion. Landlord
shall not be required to make any Alteration, whether foreseen or unforeseen, or
to maintain any of the Leased Premises or Adjoining Property in any way, and
Tenant hereby expressly waives any right which may be provided for in any Law
now or hereafter in effect to make Alterations at the expense of Landlord or to
require Landlord to make Alterations. Any Alteration made by Tenant pursuant to
this Paragraph 12 shall be made in conformity with the provisions of Paragraph

hindrance, obstruction or impairment, whether the same shall affect Landlord,
Tenant or both, or (B) take such action as shall be necessary to remove all such
encroachments, hindrances or obstructions and to end all such violations or

13. Alterations and Improvements.
(a) Tenant shall have the right, without having
obtained the prior written consent of Landlord and Lender and provided that no
Event of Default then exists, to make (i) non-structural Alterations that do not
affect the structural integrity of the Improvements, or adversely affect any of
the mechanical or electrical systems of the Improvements, (ii) Alterations that
are required in order to comply with Law, (iii) structural Alterations or a
series of related structural Alterations that, as to any such structural
Alterations or series of related structural Alterations, do not cost in excess
of $500,000 and that do not affect the structural integrity of the Improvements
or adversely affect any of the mechanical or electrical systems in the
Improvements and (iv) to install Equipment in the Improvements or accessions to
the Equipment that, as to such Equipment or accessions, do not cost in excess of
$500,000, so long as at the time of construction or installation of any such
Equipment or Alterations no Event of Default exists and the value and utility of
the Leased Premises is not diminished thereby. If the cost of any structural
Alterations, series of related structural Alterations, Equipment or accessions
thereto is in excess of $500,000, the prior written approval of Landlord and
Lender shall be required, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. Tenant shall not construct upon the Land any additional buildings
without having first obtained the prior written consent of Landlord and Lender.
(b) If Tenant makes any Alterations pursuant to this
Paragraph 13 or Paragraph 36 or as required by Paragraph 12 or 17 (such
Alterations and actions being hereinafter collectively referred to as "Work"),
whether or not Landlord's consent is required, then (i) the market value of the
Leased Premises shall not be lessened by any such Work or its usefulness
impaired, (ii) all such Work shall be performed by Tenant in a good and
workmanlike manner, (iii) all such Work shall be expeditiously completed in
compliance with all Legal Requirements, (iv) all such Work shall comply with the

of the Equipment being replaced immediately prior to the occurrence of the event
which required its replacement, (vi) Tenant shall promptly discharge or remove
all liens filed against any of the Leased Premises arising out of such Work,

excess of $500,000, Tenant shall comply, to the extent reasonably requested by
Landlord or required by this Lease, with the provisions of Paragraph 19(a),
whether or not such Work involves restoration of the Leased Premises.
14. Permitted Contests. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Lease, Tenant shall not be required to (a) pay any Imposition, (b) discharge or
remove any lien referred to in Paragraph 11 or 13 or (c) take any action with
respect to any encroachment, violation, hindrance, obstruction or impairment
referred to in Paragraph 12(b) (such non-compliance with the terms hereof being
hereinafter referred to collectively as "Permitted Violations"), so long as at
the time of such contest no Event of Default exists and so long as Tenant shall
contest, in good faith, the existence, amount or validity thereof, the amount of
the damages caused thereby, or the
-17-
20
extent of its or Landlord's liability therefor by appropriate proceedings which
shall operate during the pendency thereof to prevent or stay (i) the collection
of, or other realization upon, the Permitted Violation so contested, (ii) the
sale, forfeiture or loss of any of the Leased Premises or any Rent to satisfy or

reasonable judgment, to assure that such Permitted Violation is corrected,
including all Costs, interest and penalties that may be incurred or become due
in connection therewith. While any proceedings which comply with the
requirements of this Paragraph 14 are pending and the required security is held
by Landlord, Landlord shall not have the right to correct any Permitted
Violation thereby being contested unless Landlord is required by law to correct
such Permitted Violation and Tenant's contest does not prevent or stay such
requirement as to Landlord. Each such contest shall be promptly and diligently
prosecuted by Tenant to a final conclusion, except that Tenant, so long as the
conditions of this Paragraph 14 are at all times complied with, has the right to
attempt to settle or compromise such contest through negotiations. Tenant shall
pay any and all losses, judgments, decrees and Costs in connection with any such
contest and shall, promptly after the final determination of such contest, fully
pay and discharge the amounts which shall be levied, assessed, charged or
imposed or be determined to be payable therein or in connection therewith,
together with all penalties, fines, interest and Costs thereof or in connection
therewith, and perform all acts the performance of which shall be ordered or
decreed as a result thereof. No such contest shall subject Landlord to the risk
of any civil or criminal liability.
15. Indemnification.
(a) With respect to any action or event which arises
or occurs prior to the expiration of the Term or any earlier termination of this
Lease and/or any consequences thereof, whether ascertainable prior to or at any
time after such expiration of the Term or earlier termination of the Lease,
Tenant shall pay, protect, indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless Landlord,
Lender and all other Persons described in Paragraph 30 (each an "Indemnitee")
from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages (including punitive
damages), penalties, Costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs),

law or in equity, arising from (i) any matter pertaining to the acquisition (or
the negotiations leading thereto), ownership, use, non-use, occupancy,
operation, condition, design, construction, maintenance, repair or restoration
of the Leased Premises or Adjoining Property, (ii) any casualty in any manner
arising from the Leased Premises or Adjoining Property, whether or not
Indemnitee has or should have knowledge or notice of any defect or condition
causing or contributing to said casualty, (iii) any violation by Tenant of any
provision of this Lease, any contract or agreement relating to the Leased
Premises to which Tenant is a party, any Legal Requirement or any Permitted
Encumbrance or any encumbrance Tenant consented to or any provision of the

threatened or actual Environmental Violation, including (A) liability for
response costs and for costs of removal and remedial action incurred by the
United States Government, any state or local governmental unit or any other

including the reasonable costs of assessing such injury, destruction or loss,
incurred pursuant to Section 107 of CERCLA, or any successor section or act or
provision of any similar state or local Law, (B) liability for costs and
expenses of abatement, correction or clean-up, fines, damages, response costs or

any statutory or common-law tort theory, including damages assessed for the
maintenance of a public or private nuisance or for carrying on of a dangerous
activity.
(b) In case any action or proceeding is brought
against any Indemnitee by reason of any such claim, (i) Tenant may, except in
the event of a conflict of interest or a dispute between Tenant and any such
Indemnitee or during the continuance of an Event of Default, retain its own
counsel and defend such action (it being understood that Landlord may, at its
own cost, employ counsel of its choice to monitor the defense of any such
action) and (ii) such Indemnitee shall notify Tenant to resist or defend such
action or proceeding by retaining counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnitee, and such Indemnitee will cooperate and assist in the defense of such
action or proceeding if reasonably requested so to do by Tenant. In the event of
a conflict of interest or dispute or during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Landlord shall have the right to select counsel, and the reasonable
cost of such counsel shall by paid by Tenant.
(c) The obligations of Tenant under this Paragraph 15
with respect to any action or event which arises or occurs prior to the
expiration of the Term or any earlier termination of this Lease and/or the
consequences thereof, shall survive any termination, expiration or rejection in
bankruptcy of this Lease.
16. Insurance.
(a) Tenant shall maintain the following insurance on
or in connection with the Leased Premises:
(i) Insurance against physical loss or damage to the
Improvements and Equipment as provided under a standard "All Risk" property
policy including but not limited to flood (if the Leased Premises is in a flood
zone) in amounts not less than the actual replacement cost of the Improvements
and Equipment. Such policies shall contain Replacement Cost and Agreed Amount
Endorsements and shall contain deductibles as may be recommended by Tenant's
insurance broker and approved by Landlord and Lender, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld and in any event not less than $100,000. In addition,
Tenant shall maintain earthquake coverage (which may include California real
estate in addition to the Leased Premises) of not less than $25,000,000 with a
deductible equal to the lesser of $10,000,000 or 5% of the casualty loss,
provided that proceeds received from any earthquake casualty in an amount equal
to the product of the probable maximum loss factor for the Improvements
multiplied by the replacement cost of the Improvements (but in no event more
than the cost of the restoration of the Improvements) shall be allocated by
Tenant for restoration of the Leased Premises prior to allocation of such
proceeds to restoration of any other improvements insured under such policy.
(ii) Commercial General Liability Insurance
(including but not limited to Incidental Medical Malpractice and Host Liquor
Liability) and Business Automobile Liability Insurance (including Non-Owned and
Hired Automobile Liability) against claims for personal and bodily injury, death
or property damage occurring on, in or as a result of the use of the Leased
Premises, in an amount not less than $15,000,000 per occurrence/annual aggregate
and all other coverage extensions that are usual and customary for properties of
this size and type provided, however, that the Landlord shall have the right to
require such higher limits as may be reasonable and customary for properties of
this size and type.
(iii) Workers' compensation insurance covering
employees of Tenant in connection with their employment on or about any of the
Leased Premises for which claims for death, disease or bodily injury may be
asserted against Landlord, Tenant or any of the Leased Premises or, in lieu of
such Workers' Compensation Insurance, a program of
-19-
22
self-insurance complying with the rules, regulations and requirements of the
appropriate agency of the State.
(iv) Comprehensive Boiler and Machinery Insurance on
any of the Equipment or any other equipment on or in the Leased Premises, in an
amount not less than $5,000,000 per accident for damage to property. Such
policies shall include at least $5,000,000 per accident for Off-Premises Service
Interruption, "System Breakdowns" and Expediting Expenses.
(v) Business Income/Extra Expense Insurance at limits
sufficient to cover 100% of the period of indemnity not less than eighteen (18)
months from time of loss. Such insurance shall name Landlord as loss payee
solely with respect to Rent payable to or for the benefit of Landlord as its
interest appears under this Lease.
(vi) During any period in which substantial
Alterations at the Leased Premises are being undertaken, builder's risk
insurance covering the total completed value including any "soft costs" with
respect to the Improvements being altered or repaired (on a completed value,
non-reporting basis), replacement cost of work performed and equipment, supplies
and materials furnished in connection with such construction or repair of
Improvements or Equipment, together with such "soft cost" endorsements and such
other endorsements as Landlord may reasonably require and general liability,
worker's compensation and automobile liability insurance with respect to the
Improvements being constructed, altered or repaired.
(vii) Such other insurance (or other terms with
respect to any insurance required pursuant to this Paragraph 16, including
without limitation amounts of coverage, deductibles, form of mortgagee clause)
on or in connection with any of the Leased Premises as Landlord or Lender may
reasonably require, which at the time is usual and commonly obtained in
connection with properties similar in type of building size, use and location to
the Leased Premises.
(b) The insurance required by Paragraph 16(a) shall
be written by one or more (i) domestic primary insurer(s) having an investment
grade rating of "AA" or a comparable claims paying ability assigned by S&P or
equivalent credit rating agency approved by Landlord and Lender, and approved to
write insurance policies by the State Insurance Department for the State or (ii)
such other insurer(s) as may be otherwise approved by Landlord and Lender, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld. The insurance policies (i) shall be
for such terms as Landlord may reasonably approve and (ii) shall be in amounts
sufficient at all times to satisfy any coinsurance requirements thereof. The
insurance referred to in Paragraphs 16(a)(i), 16(a)(iv) and 16(a)(vi) shall name
Landlord as Owner and Lender as loss payee and Tenant as its interest may
appear. The insurance referred to in Paragraph 16(a)(ii) shall name Landlord and
Lender as additional insureds, and the insurance referred to in Paragraph
16(a)(v) shall name Landlord (or Lender, if requested by Landlord) as loss payee
to the extent provided in Paragraph 16(a)(v). If said insurance or any part
thereof shall expire, be withdrawn, become void, voidable, unreliable or unsafe
for any reason, including a breach of any condition thereof by Tenant or the
failure or impairment of the capital of any insurer, or if for any other reason
whatsoever said insurance shall become reasonably unsatisfactory to Landlord,
Tenant shall immediately obtain new or additional insurance reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord.
(c) Each insurance policy referred to in clauses (i),
(iv), (v) and (vi) of Paragraph 16(a) shall contain standard non-contributory
mortgagee clauses in favor of and acceptable to Lender. Each policy required by
any provision of Paragraph 16(a), except clause (iii) thereof, shall provide
that it may not be cancelled or terminated, substantially modified or allowed to
lapse on any renewal date except after thirty (30) days' prior notice to
Landlord and Lender. Each such policy shall also provide that any loss otherwise
payable thereunder shall be
-20-
23
payable notwithstanding (i) any act or omission of Landlord or Tenant which
might, absent such provision, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such
insurance payment, (ii) the occupation or use of any of the Leased Premises for
purposes more hazardous than those permitted by the provisions of such policy,
(iii) any foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken by Lender pursuant to
any provision of the Mortgage, Note, Assignment or other document evidencing or
securing the Loan upon the happening of an event of default therein or (iv) any
change in title to or ownership of any of the Leased Premises.
(d) Tenant shall pay as they become due all premiums
for the insurance required by Paragraph 16(a) (and in any event not less than 30
days prior to cancellation for non-payment), shall renew or replace each policy
and deliver to Landlord evidence of the renewal or replacement of each such
policy prior to the stated expiration thereof (which evidence may consist of a
binder, certificate or replacement policy) and, upon receipt shall promptly
deliver to Landlord all original certificates of insurance.
(e) Anything in this Paragraph 16 to the contrary
notwithstanding, any insurance which Tenant is required to obtain pursuant to
Paragraph 16(a) may be carried under a "blanket" or umbrella policy or policies
covering other properties or liabilities of Tenant, provided that such "blanket"
or umbrella policy or policies otherwise comply with the provisions of this
Paragraph 16 and provided further that Tenant shall provide to Landlord a
Statement of Values which shall be reviewed annually and amended as necessary
based on Replacement Cost Valuations. A certified copy of each such "blanket" or
umbrella policy shall promptly be delivered to Landlord, or if requested by
Landlord, to Lender.
(f) Tenant shall promptly comply with and conform to
(i) all provisions of each insurance policy required by this Paragraph 16 and
(ii) all requirements of the insurers thereunder applicable to Landlord, Tenant
or any of the Leased Premises or to the use, manner of use, occupancy,
possession, operation, maintenance, alteration or repair of any of the Leased
Premises, even if such compliance necessitates Alterations or results in
interference with the use or enjoyment of any of the Leased Premises.
(g) Tenant shall not carry separate insurance
concurrent in form or contributing in the event of a Casualty with that required
in this Paragraph 16 unless (i) Landlord and Lender are included therein as
named insureds, with loss payable as provided herein, and (ii) such separate
insurance complies with the other provisions of this Paragraph 16. Tenant shall
promptly notify Landlord of such separate insurance and shall deliver to
Landlord a certified copy of policies thereof.
(h) All policies shall contain effective waivers by
the carrier against all claims for insurance premiums against Landlord and
Lender and shall contain full waivers of subrogation against the Landlord and
Lender.
(i) All proceeds of insurance payable under clause
(v) with respect to the Rent shall be payable to Landlord or, if required by the
Mortgage, to Lender. Proceeds of insurance required under clauses (i) and (iv)
of Paragraph 16(a) and proceeds attributable to Builder's Risk insurance (other
than its general liability coverage provisions) under clause (vi) of Paragraph
16(a) shall be payable to Landlord (or Lender) and applied as set forth in
Paragraph 17. Tenant shall apply the Net Award to restoration of the Leased
Premises in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Lease.
17. Casualty and Condemnation.
(a) If any Casualty to the Leased Premises occurs,
Tenant shall give Landlord and Lender immediate notice thereof. So long as no
Event of Default exists Tenant is
-21-
24
hereby authorized to adjust, collect and compromise all claims under any of the
insurance policies required by Paragraph 16(a) and to execute and deliver on
behalf of Landlord all necessary proofs of loss, receipts, vouchers and releases
required by the insurers and Landlord shall have the right to join with Tenant
therein. Any final adjustment, settlement or compromise of any such claim shall
be subject to the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld. If an Event of Default exists, Tenant shall not be
entitled to adjust, collect or compromise any such claim or to participate with
Landlord in any adjustment, collection and compromise of the Net Award payable
in connection with a Casualty. Tenant agrees to sign, upon the request of
Landlord, all such proofs of loss, receipts, vouchers and releases. Each insurer
is hereby authorized and directed to make payment under said policies directly
to Landlord or, if required by the Mortgage, to Lender instead of to Landlord
and Tenant jointly, and Tenant hereby appoints each of Landlord and Lender as
Tenant's attorneys-in-fact to endorse any draft therefor. The rights of Landlord
under this Paragraph 17(a) shall be extended to Lender if and to the extent that
any Mortgage so provides.
(b) Tenant, immediately upon receiving a Condemnation
Notice, shall notify Landlord and Lender thereof and will promptly deliver to
Landlord and Lender copies of any and all served papers it receives in
connection therewith. So long as no Event of Default exists, Tenant is
authorized to collect, settle and compromise the amount of any Net Award and
Landlord shall have the right to join with Tenant therein. If an Event of
Default exists, Landlord shall be authorized to collect, settle and compromise
the amount of any Net Award and Tenant shall not be entitled to participate with
Landlord in any Condemnation proceeding or negotiations under threat thereof or
to contest the Condemnation or the amount of the Net Award therefor. No
agreement with any condemnor in settlement or under threat of any Condemnation
shall be made by Tenant without the written consent of Landlord, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Subject to the provisions of this Paragraph
17(b), Tenant hereby irrevocably assigns to Landlord any award or payment to
which Tenant is or may be entitled by reason of any Condemnation, whether the
same shall be paid or payable for Tenant's leasehold interest hereunder or
otherwise; but nothing in this Lease shall impair Tenant's right to any award or
payment on account of Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment or other tangible
property which is not part of the Equipment, moving expenses or loss of
business, if available, to the extent that and so long as (i) Tenant shall have
the right to make, and does make, a separate claim therefor against the
condemnor and (ii) such claim does not in any way reduce either the amount of
the award otherwise payable to Landlord for the Condemnation of Landlord's fee
interest in the Leased Premises or the amount of the award (if any) otherwise
payable for the Condemnation of Tenant's leasehold interest hereunder. The
rights of Landlord under this Paragraph 17(b) shall also be extended to Lender
if and to the extent that any Mortgage so provides.
(c) If any Casualty (whether or not insured against)
or Partial Condemnation shall occur, this Lease shall continue, notwithstanding
such event, and there shall be no abatement or reduction of any Monetary
Obligations, except as provided in Paragraph 17(d). Promptly after such Casualty
or Partial Condemnation, Tenant, as required in Paragraphs 12(a) and 13(b),
shall commence and diligently continue to restore the Leased Premises as nearly
as possible to their value, condition and character immediately prior to such
event and will promptly deliver to Landlord and Lender copies of any and all
served papers it receives in connection therewith (assuming the Leased Premises
to have been in the condition required by this Lease). So long as no Event of
Default exists, upon completion the Leased Premises will be in compliance with
all Legal Requirements and Environmental Laws and access to the Leased Premises
will not be materially impaired on a permanent basis, any Net Award up to and
including $1,000,000 shall be paid by Landlord to Tenant and shall be held in a
segregated account, and Tenant shall restore the Leased Premises in accordance
with the requirements of Paragraphs 12(a) and 13(b) of this Lease. Any Net Award
in excess of $1,000,000 shall be made available by Landlord (or Lender, if
required by the terms of any Mortgage) to Tenant for the restoration of any of
the Leased Premises pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of
-22-
25
Paragraph 19 hereof. If any Condemnation which is not a Partial Condemnation
shall occur, Tenant shall comply with the terms and conditions of Paragraph 18.
Landlord and Tenant waive the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932
and 1933 and California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130.
(d) In the event of a Requisition of any of the
Leased Premises, if any Net Award payable by reason of such Requisition or
Partial Condemnation is (i) retained by Landlord (and not applied to restoration
in the case of a Partial Condemnation), each installment of Basic Rent payable
on or after the date on which the Net Award is paid to Landlord shall be reduced
by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the total amount of all Basic
Rent due from such date to and including the last Basic Rent Payment Date for
the then existing Term and the numerator of which shall be the amount of such
Net Award retained by Landlord, or (ii) paid to Lender, then each installment of
Basic Rent thereafter payable shall be reduced in the same amount and for the
same period as payments are reduced under the Note until such Net Award has been
applied in full or until the Term has expired, whichever first occurs.
18. Termination Events.
(a) If (i) the entire Leased Premises shall be taken
by a Taking or (ii) any substantial portion of the Leased Premises shall be
taken by a Taking and in the prudent business judgment of Tenant cannot be
restored to an integrated unit sufficient for Tenant's business (each of the
events described in the above clauses (i) and (ii) shall hereinafter be referred
to as a "Termination Event"), then (x) in the case of (i) above, Tenant shall be
obligated, within thirty (30) days after Tenant receives a Condemnation Notice
and (y) in the case of (ii) above, Tenant shall have the option, within thirty
(30) days after Tenant receives a Condemnation Notice, to give to Landlord
written notice of the Tenant's election to terminate this Lease (a "Termination
Notice") in the form described in Paragraph 18(b).
(b) A Termination Notice shall contain (i) notice of
Tenant's intention to terminate this Lease on the first Basic Rent Payment Date
which occurs at least sixty (60) days after receipt of the Termination Notice
(the "Termination Date") and (ii) a binding and irrevocable offer of Tenant to
pay to Landlord the Termination Amount.
(c) If Landlord shall reject such offer to pay the
Termination Amount pursuant to Paragraph 18(b) above by written notice to Tenant
(a "Rejection"), which Rejection shall contain the written consent of Lender,
not later than thirty (30) days following the receipt of the Termination Notice,
then this Lease shall terminate on the Termination Date; provided that, if
Tenant has not satisfied all Monetary Obligations on the Termination Date, then
Landlord may, at its option, extend the date on which this Lease may terminate
to a date which is no later than the first Basic Rent Payment Date after the
Termination Date on which Tenant has satisfied all Monetary Obligations. Upon
such termination (i) all obligations of Tenant hereunder shall terminate except
for any Surviving Obligations, (ii) Tenant shall immediately vacate and shall
have no further right, title or interest in or to any of the Leased Premises and
(iii) the Net Award shall be retained by Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary hereinabove contained, if Tenant shall have received a Rejection
and, on the date when this Lease would otherwise terminate as provided above,
Landlord shall not have received the full amount of the Net Award payable by
reason of the applicable Termination Event, then the date on which this Lease is
to terminate automatically shall be extended to the first Basic Rent Payment
Date after the receipt by Landlord of the full amount of the Net Award (but in
no event shall any such extension exceed a maximum of three months) provided
that, if Tenant has not satisfied all Monetary Obligations on such date, then
Landlord may, at its option, extend the date on which this Lease may terminate
to a date which is no later than the first Basic Rent Payment Date after such
date on which Tenant has satisfied all such Monetary Obligations.
-23-
26
(d) Unless Tenant shall have received a Rejection not later
than the thirtieth (30th) day following receipt of the Termination Notice,
Landlord shall be conclusively presumed to have accepted such offer. If such
offer is accepted by Landlord then, on the Termination Date, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the Termination Amount and all remaining obligations (including
Monetary Obligations) and, if requested by Tenant, Landlord shall pay to or
assign to Tenant Landlord's entire interest in and to the Net Award.
19. Restoration.
(a) Landlord (or Lender if required by any Mortgage) shall hold
Net Award in excess of $1,000,000 in a fund (the "Restoration Fund") and
disburse amounts from the Restoration Fund only in accordance with the following
conditions and, if the Restoration Fund is held by a Lender, it shall be held
and administered in accordance with Lender's customary procedures for similar
accounts:
(i) prior to commencement of restoration, (A) the
architects, contracts, contractors, budget (which shall include Lender's
administration costs if Lender holds the Restoration Fund), plans and
specifications for the restoration shall have been approved by Landlord and
Lender which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and (B) Landlord and
Lender shall be provided with performance and payment bonds which insure
satisfactory completion of and payment for the restoration, are in an amount and
form and have a surety reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and name Landlord and
Lender as additional dual obligees;
(ii) at the time of any disbursement, no Event of Default
shall exist, Tenant shall otherwise comply with the requirements imposed by
Lender for disbursement of the Net Award and no mechanics' or materialmen's
liens shall have been filed against any of the Leased Premises and remain
uncontested or undischarged;
(iii) disbursements shall be made from time to time in an
amount not exceeding the cost of the work completed since the last disbursement,
upon receipt of (A) satisfactory evidence, including architects' certificates,
of the stage of completion, the estimated total cost of completion and
performance of the work to date in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance
with the contracts, plans and specifications, (B) waivers of liens, (C)
contractors' and subcontractors' sworn statements as to completed work and the
cost thereof for which payment is requested, (D) a satisfactory bringdown of
title insurance and (E) other evidence of cost and payment so that Landlord can
verify that the amounts disbursed from time to time are represented by work that
is completed, in place and free and clear of mechanics' and materialmen's lien
claims, notices of pendency, stop orders or notices of intention to file same
which have not either been fully bonded and discharged of record or in the
alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Landlord and Lender by the
title company insuring the Mortgage;
(iv) each request for disbursement shall be accompanied by
a certificate of Tenant, signed by an officer of Tenant, describing the work for
which payment is requested, stating the cost incurred in connection therewith,
stating that Tenant has not previously received payment for such work and, upon
completion of the work, also stating that the work has been fully completed and
complies with the applicable requirements of this Lease;
(v) Landlord may retain ten percent (10%) of the
restoration fund until the restoration is fully completed;
(vi) if the Restoration Fund is held by Landlord, the
Restoration Fund shall not be commingled with Landlord's other funds and shall
bear interest at a rate agreed to by Landlord and Tenant; and
-24-
27
(vii) such other reasonable conditions as Landlord or
Lender may impose.
(b) Prior to commencement of restoration and at any time
during restoration, if the estimated cost of completing the restoration work
free and clear of all liens, as reasonably determined by Landlord, exceeds the
amount of the Net Award available for such restoration, the amount of such
excess shall, upon demand by Landlord, be paid by Tenant to Landlord to be added
to the Restoration Fund. Any sum so added by Tenant which remains in the
Restoration Fund upon completion of restoration shall be refunded to Tenant. For
purposes of determining the source of funds with respect to the disposition of
funds remaining after the completion of restoration, the Net Award shall be
deemed to be disbursed prior to any amount added by Tenant.
(c) If any sum remains in the Restoration Fund after
completion of the restoration and any refund to Tenant pursuant to Paragraph
19(b), such sum shall be retained by Landlord or, if required by a Note or
Mortgage, paid by Landlord to a Lender.
20. INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
21. Assignment and Subletting; Prohibition against Leasehold
Financing.
(a) (i) Tenant shall have the right, upon thirty (30) days
prior written notice to Landlord and Lender, with no consent of Landlord or
Lender being required or necessary ("Preapproved Assignment") to assign this
Lease, by operation of law or otherwise, to any Person ("Preapproved Assignee")
(A) that is a wholly-owned United States subsidiary of Tenant on the date of the
assignment (except that an assignment to Vantis Corp. shall not be permitted) or
(B) that immediately following such assignment will have a publicly traded
unsecured senior debt rating of "Baa3" or better from Xxxxx'x or a rating of
"BBB-" or better from S&P, provided that the rating from the other agency (i.e.
Xxxxx'x or S&P, as the case may be) shall not be less than Ba1 or BB+ and in the
event all of such rating agencies cease to furnish such ratings, then a
comparable rating by any rating agency reasonably acceptable to Landlord and
Lender or (C) that is the surviving entity after a merger or consolidation in
which Tenant is a party, so long as the net worth of such surviving entity is
not less than the net worth of Tenant immediately prior thereto.
(ii) If Tenant desires to assign this Lease, whether by
operation of law or otherwise, to a Person ("Non-Preapproved Assignee") who
would not be a Preapproved Assignee ("Non-Preapproved Assignment") then Tenant
shall, not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the date on which it desires
to make a Non-Preapproved Assignment submit to Landlord and Lender information
regarding the following with respect to the Non-Preapproved Assignee
(collectively, the "Review Criteria"): (A) credit, (B) capital structure, (C)
management, (D) operating history, (E) proposed use of the Leased Premises and
(F) risk factors associated with the proposed use of the Leased Premises by the
Non-Preapproved Assignee, taking into account factors such as environmental
concerns, product liability and the like. Landlord and Lender shall review such
information and shall approve or disapprove the Non-Preapproved Assignee no
later than the thirtieth (30th) day following receipt of all such information,
and Landlord and Lender shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in granting or
withholding consent if such grant or disapproval is based on their review of the
Review Criteria applying prudent business judgment.
(b) Tenant shall have the right, upon thirty (30) days prior
written notice to Landlord and Lender, to enter into one or more subleases that
demise, in the aggregate, up to but not in excess of thirty percent (30%) of the
leaseable space in the Improvements with no consent or approval of Landlord
being required or necessary ("Preapproved Sublet"). Other than pursuant to
Preapproved Sublets, at no time during the Term shall subleases for more than
-25-
28
thirty percent (30%) of the gross space in the Leased Premises without the prior
written consent of Landlord, which consent shall be granted or withheld based on
a review of the Review Criteria as they relate to the proposed sublessee and the
terms of the proposed sublease. Landlord and Lender shall be deemed to have
acted reasonably in granting or withholding consent if such grant or disapproval
is based on their review of the Review Criteria applying prudent business
judgment.
(c) If Tenant assigns all its rights and interest under this
Lease, the assignee under such assignment shall expressly assume all the
obligations of Tenant hereunder, actual or contingent, including obligations of
Tenant which may have arisen on or prior to the date of such assignment, by a
written instrument delivered to Landlord at the time of such assignment. Each
sublease of any of the Leased Premises shall be subject and subordinate to the
provisions of this Lease. No assignment or sublease made as permitted by this
Paragraph 21 shall affect or reduce any of the obligations of Tenant hereunder,
and all such obligations shall continue in full force and effect as obligations
of a principal and not as obligations of a guarantor, as if no assignment or
sublease had been made. No assignment or sublease shall impose any additional
obligations on Landlord under this Lease.
(d) Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the execution and
delivery of any assignment or sublease deliver a duplicate original copy thereof
to Landlord which, in the event of an assignment, shall be in recordable form.
(e) As security for performance of its obligations under this
Lease, Tenant hereby grants, conveys and assigns to Landlord all right, title
and interest of Tenant in and to all subleases now in existence or hereafter
entered into for any or all of the Leased Premises, any and all extensions,
modifications and renewals thereof and all rents, issues and profits therefrom.
Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a license to collect and enjoy all rents and
other sums of money payable under any sublease of any of the Leased Premises,
provided, however, that Landlord shall have the absolute right to revoke said
license and to collect such rents and sums of money, to retain the same and to
the extent received the same shall be credited against Basic Rent as the same
shall be due and owing.
(f) Tenant shall not have the power to mortgage, pledge or
otherwise encumber its interest under this Lease or any sublease of the Leased
Premises, and any such mortgage, pledge or encumbrance made in violation of this
Paragraph 21 shall be void and of no force and effect.
(g) Tenant shall transfer its interest in this Lease to any
Person who purchases all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant.
(h) Landlord may sell or transfer the Leased Premises at any
time without Tenant's consent to any third party (each a "Third Party
Purchaser"); provided, however, so long as no monetary Event of Default exists,
in no event may Landlord sell or transfer to Intel Corporation, National
Semiconductor, Inc. or to any Person directly engaged in the design, engineering
or manufacturing of integrated circuits, including, without limitation,
micro-processors, memory, networking, logic and communications devices (any of
the foregoing a "Prohibited Purchaser"). The foregoing conditions shall not
apply to any sale of the Leased Premises that occurs during the last eighteen
months of the Term, or to any sale to a pension fund or finance affiliate of a
Prohibited Purchaser (excluding, however, a pension fund or finance affiliate of
Intel Corporation or National Semiconductor, Inc.), and, in any event, the
aforesaid conditions shall be null and void and of no force and effect upon any
foreclosure of a Loan or acceptance by a Lender of a deed in lieu thereof. In
the event of any such transfer, Tenant shall attorn to any Third Party Purchaser
as Landlord so long as such Third Party Purchaser and Landlord notify Tenant in
writing of such transfer and such Third Party Purchaser expressly
-26-
29
assumes in writing the obligations of the Landlord hereunder. At the request of
Landlord and at Landlord's cost, Tenant will execute such documents confirming
the agreement referred to above and such other agreements as Landlord may
reasonably request, provided that such agreements do not increase the
liabilities and obligations of Tenant hereunder. Tenant shall not bear any costs
or expenses in connection with any sale or transfer of the Leased Premises to a
Third Party Purchaser. In no event shall the terms of this Paragraph 21(g) be or
be deemed to be in effect following the termination or expiration of this Lease.
22. Events of Default.
(a) The occurrence of any one or more of the following (after
expiration of any applicable cure period as provided in Paragraph 22(b)) shall,
at the sole option of Landlord, constitute an "Event of Default" under this
Lease:
(i) a failure by Tenant to make any payment of any
Monetary Obligation, regardless of the reason for such failure;
(ii) a failure by Tenant duly to perform and observe, or a
violation or breach of, any other provision of this Lease not otherwise
specifically mentioned in this Paragraph 22(a);
(iii) any representation or warranty made by Tenant herein
or in any certificate, demand or request made pursuant hereto proves to be
incorrect, when made, in any material respect;
(iv) a default beyond any applicable cure period or at
maturity by Tenant in any payment of principal or interest on any obligations
for borrowed money having an original principal balance of $10,000,000 or more
in the aggregate, or in the performance of any other provision contained in any
instrument under which any such obligation is created or secured (including the
breach of any covenant thereunder), (x) if such payment is a payment at maturity
or a final payment, or (y) if an effect of such default is to cause, or permit
any Person to cause, such obligation to become due prior to its stated maturity
and Tenant is not diligently and in good faith contesting such default or has
paid such obligation in full;
(v) a default by Tenant beyond any applicable cure period
in the payment of rent under, or in the performance of any other material
provision of, any other lease or leases that have, in the aggregate, rental
obligations over the terms thereof of $10,000,000 or more if the Landlord under
any such lease or leases actually terminates such lease;
(vi) a final, non-appealable judgment or judgments for the
payment of money in excess of $10,000,000 in the aggregate shall be rendered
against Tenant and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of sixty (60)

state or any jurisdiction, (D) make a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors, or (E) be unable to pay its debts as they mature;
(viii) a court shall enter an order, judgment or decree
appointing, without the consent of Tenant, a receiver or trustee for it or for
any of the Leased Premises or approving a petition filed against Tenant which

-27-
30
other similar laws of the United States, any state or any jurisdiction, and such
order, judgment or decree shall remain undischarged or unstayed ninety (90) days
after it is entered;
(ix) the Leased Premises shall have been vacated or
abandoned;
(x) Tenant shall be liquidated or dissolved or shall begin
proceedings towards its liquidation or dissolution;
(xi) the estate or interest of Tenant in any of the Leased
Premises shall be levied upon or attached in any proceeding and such estate or
interest is about to be sold or transferred or such process shall not be vacated
or discharged within ninety (90) days after it is made;
(xii) a failure by Tenant to perform or observe, or a
violation or breach of, or a misrepresentation by Tenant under any or any
document between Tenant and Lender or from Tenant to Lender, if such failure,
violation, breach or misrepresentation gives rise to a default beyond any
applicable cure period with respect to any Loan; or
(xiii) a failure by Tenant to maintain in effect any
license or permit necessary for the use, occupancy or operation of the Leased
Premises.
(b) No notice or cure period shall be required in any one or
more of the following events: (A) the occurrence of an Event of Default under
clause (i) (except as otherwise set forth below), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii),
(viii), (ix), (x), (xi) or (xii) of Paragraph 22(a); (B) if Tenant shall fail to
comply with the provisions of Paragraph 16(d) of this Lease or an assignment or
sublease entered into in violation of Paragraph 21; or (C) the default is such
that any delay in the exercise of a remedy by Landlord could reasonably be
expected to cause irreparable harm to Landlord. If the default consists of the
failure to pay any Monetary Obligation under clause (i) of Paragraph 22(a), the
applicable cure period shall be five (5) days from the date on which notice is
given, but, if the default consists of a failure to pay Basic Rent, Landlord
shall not be obligated to give notice of, or allow any cure period for, any such
default more than twice within any Lease Year. If the default consists of a
default under clauses (ii) or (xiv) of Paragraph 22(a), other than the events
specified in clauses (B) and (C) of the first sentence of this Paragraph 22(b),
the applicable cure period shall be twenty (20) days from the date on which
notice is given or, if the default cannot be cured within such twenty (20) day
period and delay in the exercise of a remedy would not (in Landlord's reasonable
judgment) cause any material adverse harm to Landlord or any of the Leased
Premises, the cure period shall be extended for the period required to cure the
default (but such cure period, including any extension, shall not in the
aggregate exceed ninety (90) days), provided that Tenant shall commence to cure
the default within the said twenty-day period and shall actively, diligently and
in good faith proceed with and continue the curing of the default until it shall
be fully cured. The notices described in this Paragraph 22(b) are in lieu and
not in addition to the notice under California Civil Code 1161.
23. Remedies and Damages Upon Default.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is
continuing, Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, then or at any
time thereafter, to exercise its remedies and to collect damages from Tenant in
accordance with this Paragraph 23, subject in all events to applicable Law,
without demand upon or notice to Tenant except as otherwise provided in
Paragraph 22(b) and this Paragraph 23.
(i) Landlord may give Tenant notice of Landlord's intention
to terminate this Lease on a date specified in such notice. Upon such date, this
Lease, the estate
-28-
31
hereby granted and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall expire and terminate.
Upon such termination, Tenant shall immediately surrender and deliver possession
of the Leased Premises to Landlord in accordance with Paragraph 26. If Tenant
does not so surrender and deliver possession of the Leased Premises, Landlord
may re-enter and repossess the Leased Premises or by summary proceedings,
ejectment or any other lawful means or procedure. Upon or at any time after
taking possession of the Leased Premises, Landlord may, by peaceable means or
legal process, remove any Persons or property therefrom. Landlord shall be under
no liability for or by reason of any such entry, repossession or removal.
Notwithstanding such entry or repossession, Landlord may (A) exercise the remedy
set forth in and collect the damages permitted by Paragraph 23(a)(iii) or (B)
collect the damages set forth in Paragraph 23(b) or (c).
(ii) After repossession of the Leased Premises pursuant to
clause (i) above, Landlord shall have the right to relet any of the Leased
Premises to such tenant or tenants, for such term or terms, for such rent, on
such conditions and for such uses as Landlord in its sole discretion may
determine, and collect and receive any rents payable by reason of such
reletting. Landlord may pay such leasing commissions, retain such management and
make such Alterations in connection with such reletting as it may deem advisable
in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding any such reletting, Landlord may collect
the damages set forth in Paragraph 23(c).
(iii) Landlord may declare by notice to Tenant the entire
Basic Rent (in the amount of Basic Rent then in effect) for the remainder of the
then current Term to be immediately due and payable. Tenant shall immediately
pay to Landlord all such Basic Rent discounted to its present value, using a
discount factor of eight percent (8%) per annum, all accrued Rent then due and
unpaid, all other Monetary Obligations which are then due and unpaid and all
Monetary Obligations which arise or become due by reason of such Event of
Default (including any Costs of Landlord). Upon receipt by Landlord of all such
accelerated Basic Rent and Monetary Obligations, this Lease shall remain in full
force and effect and Tenant shall have the right to possession of the Leased
Premises from the date of such receipt by Landlord to the end of the Term, and
subject to all the provisions of this Lease, including the obligation to pay all
increases in Basic Rent and all Monetary Obligations that subsequently become
due, except that (A) no Basic Rent which has been prepaid hereunder shall be due
thereafter during the said Term, (B) Tenant shall have no option to extend or
renew the Term.
(b) In addition to its other rights under this Lease, Landlord
has the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 which provides
substantially as follows: Landlord may continue the Lease in effect after
Tenant's breach and abandonment and recover the Rent as it becomes due, if
Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable
limitations. In accordance with California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (or any
successor statute), Tenant acknowledges that in the event Tenant breaches this
Lease and abandons the Leased Premises, 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 its rights and remedies under this Lease, including
the right to recover the Rent as it becomes due under this Lease. Tenant
acknowledges that the limitations on subletting and assignment set forth in
Paragraph 21 are reasonable. Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to
relet the Leased Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of
Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute a
termination of Tenant's right to possession.
(c) If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may collect from Tenant damages
computed in accordance with the following provisions in addition to Landlord's
other remedies under this Lease:
(i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which
has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
-29-
32
(ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which
any unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which
the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the
amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) any other reasonable Cost necessary to compensate
Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform
its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would
be likely to result therefrom including, without limitation, brokerage
commissions, the cost of repairing and reletting the Leased Premises and
reasonable attorneys' fees; plus
(v) at Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition
to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by
applicable state law. Damages shall be due and payable from the date of
termination.
For purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) of this Paragraph, the
"worth at the time of award" shall be computed by adding interest at the Default
Rate to the past due Rent. For the purposes of clause (iii) of this Paragraph
23(d), the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by discounting such
amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the
time of the award, plus one percent (1%).
(d) Landlord shall be entitled to apply the Security Deposit
to any amounts due under Paragraph 23(c) if this Lease shall be terminated, or,
if this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, to any amounts due under
Paragraph 23(b) or in the following order: (i) to past due Basic Rent, (ii) to
other past due Monetary Obligations and (iii) to Basic Rent and Monetary
Obligations thereafter due and owing.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained,
in lieu of or in addition to any of the foregoing remedies and damages, Landlord
may exercise any remedies and collect any damages available to it at law or in
equity. If Landlord is unable to obtain full satisfaction pursuant to the
exercise of any remedy, it may pursue any other remedy which it has hereunder or
at law or in equity.
(f) Landlord shall not be required to mitigate any of its
damages hereunder unless required to by applicable Law. If any Law shall validly
limit the amount of any damages provided for herein to an amount which is less
than the amount agreed to herein, Landlord shall be entitled to the maximum
amount available under such Law.
(g) No termination of this Lease, repossession or reletting of
the Leased Premises, exercise of any remedy or collection of any damages
pursuant to this Paragraph 23 shall relieve Tenant of any Surviving Obligations.
(h) WITH RESPECT TO ANY REMEDY OR PROCEEDING OF LANDLORD
HEREUNDER, LANDLORD AND TENANT WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. Landlord and
Tenant agree that this Lease constitutes a written consent to waiver of trial by
jury pursuant to the provisions of California Code and Civil Procedure Section
631, and each of Landlord and Tenant does appoint the other Person as its true
and lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, and
does hereby authorize and empower the other Person, in its name, place and
stead, to file this Lease with the clerk of any court of competent jurisdiction
as statutory written consent to waiver of trial by jury. Landlord and Tenant
agree that this Lease constitutes a written consent to waiver of trial by jury
pursuant
-30-
33
to the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 631,
and each of Landlord and Tenant does appoint the other Person as its true and
lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, and does
hereby authorize and empower the other Person, in its name, place and stead, to
file this Lease with the clerk of any court of competent jurisdiction as
statutory written consent to waiver of trial by jury.
(i) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord
shall have the right (but no obligation) to perform any act required of Tenant
hereunder, including the right to retain a third party manager to manage the
Leased Premises and, if performance of such act requires that Landlord enter the
Leased Premises, Landlord may enter the Leased Premises for such purpose.
(j) No failure of Landlord (i) to insist at any time upon the
strict performance of any provision of this Lease or (ii) to exercise any
option, right, power or remedy contained in this Lease shall be construed as a
waiver, modification or relinquishment thereof. A receipt by Landlord of any sum
in satisfaction of any Monetary Obligation with knowledge of the breach of any
provision hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by
Landlord of any provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless
expressed in a writing signed by Landlord.
(k) Tenant hereby waives and surrenders, for itself and all
those claiming under it, including creditors of all kinds, (i) any right and
privilege which it or any of them may have under any present or future Law to
redeem any of the Leased Premises or to have a continuance of this Lease after
termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right of occupancy or possession
pursuant to any court order or any provision hereof, and (ii) the benefits of
any present or future Law which exempts property from liability for debt or for
distress for rent; provided that the foregoing shall not preclude or prevent
Tenant from seeking relief under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1179
in any action brought by Landlord for termination of this Lease.
(l) Except as otherwise provided herein, all remedies are
cumulative and concurrent and no remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. Each
remedy may be exercised at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and may be exercised from time to time. No remedy shall be exhausted
by any exercise thereof.
24. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals,
offers, statements and other instruments or communications required or permitted

26. Surrender. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease, Tenant shall peaceably leave and surrender the Leased Premises to
Landlord in the same condition in which the Leased Premises was at the
commencement of this Lease, except as repaired, rebuilt, restored, altered,
replaced or added to as permitted or required by any provision of this Lease,
and except for ordinary wear and tear. Upon such surrender, Tenant shall (a)
remove from the Leased Premises all property which is owned by Tenant or third
parties other than Landlord and (b) repair any damage caused by such removal.
Property not so removed shall become the property of Landlord, and Landlord may
thereafter cause such property to be removed from the Leased Premises. The cost
of removing and disposing of such property and repairing any damage to any of
the Leased Premises caused by such removal shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord
upon demand. Landlord shall not in any manner or to any extent be obligated to
reimburse Tenant for any such property which becomes the property of Landlord
pursuant to this Paragraph 26.

or indirectly, (a) the leasehold estate created hereby or any part thereof or
interest therein and (b) the fee estate in any of the Leased Premises or any
part thereof or interest therein, unless and until all Persons having any
interest in the interests described in (a) and (b) above which are sought to be
merged shall join in a written instrument effecting such merger and shall duly

The rights and obligations set forth in this Paragraph 28(c) shall survive
according to the terms hereof and continue after any expiration or termination
of this Agreement or the service specified herein. In the event of a breach or
threatened breach by Landlord or Lender of the provisions of this Paragraph
28(c), Tenant shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Landlord or Lender
from disclosing, in whole or in part, any of such Confidential Information.
29. INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
30. Non-Recourse as to Landlord and Lender. Anything contained

Landlord or Lender, (ii) any director, officer, member, general partner,
shareholder, limited partner, beneficiary, employee or agent of Landlord or
Lender or any general partner of Landlord or any of its members or general
partners (or any legal representative, heir, estate, successor or assign of any
thereof), (iii) any predecessor or successor partnership or corporation (or
other entity) of Landlord or Lender or any of its general partners,

foregoing, or any director, officer, employee or agent of any thereof.
31. Financing.
(a) Tenant agrees to pay all Costs incurred by Landlord in
connection with the purchase, leasing and initial financing of the Leased
Premises including, without limitation, the cost of appraisals, environmental
reports, title insurance, surveys, legal fees and expenses and Lender's
commitment fees.
(b) If Landlord desires to obtain or refinance any Loan,
Tenant shall negotiate in good faith with Landlord concerning any request made
by any Lender or proposed
-34-
37
Lender for changes or modifications in this Lease. In particular, Tenant shall
agree, upon request of Landlord, to supply any such Lender with such notices and
information as Tenant is required to give to Landlord hereunder and to extend
the rights of Landlord hereunder to any such Lender and to acknowledge such
financing and the assignment of this Lease to Lender if such acknowledgment is
requested by such Lender.
32. Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment. This Lease
shall be subject and subordinate to any Mortgage which is hereafter executed or
recorded securing a Loan, provided, however, such subordination shall only be
effective if the Lender agrees in a written subordination of substantially the
same substance as the document attached hereto as Exhibit "F", with such
non-material changes as the Landlord may reasonably request, that so long as
there exists no outstanding Event of Default at the time the Mortgage terminates
by foreclosure or otherwise: (i) this Lease shall survive such termination; (ii)
the Lender or any purchaser acquires Landlord's interest under this Lease
pursuant to or in lieu of proceedings for enforcement of any Mortgage, the
Lender or any purchaser shall assume all of Landlord's obligations hereunder
arising during the period commencing on the date of such acquisition and ending
on the date such interest is conveyed or transferred to a subsequent party that
assumes the obligations of Landlord hereunder arising during the period such
party so holds Landlord's interest, subject in all events to the terms of
Paragraph 30 of this Lease. Provided the conditions of the preceding sentence
are satisfied, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, upon request
by Landlord, the subordination described above, and any additional documents
evidencing the subordination of this Lease with respect to any such Mortgage
reasonably required by the Lender and the agreement of Tenant to attorn to the
Lender or any such purchaser.
33. INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
34. Tax Treatment; Reporting. Landlord and Tenant each
acknowledge that each shall treat this transaction as a true lease for state law
purposes and shall report this transaction as a Lease for Federal income tax
purposes. For Federal income tax purposes each shall report this Lease as a true
lease with Landlord as the owner of the Leased Premises and Equipment and Tenant
as the lessee of such Leased Premises and Equipment including: (1) treating
Landlord as the owner of the property eligible to claim depreciation deductions
under Section 167 or 168 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") with
respect to the Leased Premises and Equipment, (2) Tenant reporting its Rent
payments as rent expense under Section 162 of the Code, and (3) Landlord
reporting the Rent payments as rental income.
35. Excess Land.
(a) Landlord acknowledges that the Excess Land is not
necessary for Tenant's current and contemplated use of the Leased Premises.
Landlord shall, upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to
Landlord and Lender, convey the Excess Land to or as directed by Tenant for no
consideration (other than having entered into this Lease with Tenant); provided,
that no Event of Default under this Lease or under the documents evidencing and
securing the Loan exists and the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the
Leased Premises shall have been subdivided in compliance with all applicable
subdivision laws, Legal Requirements and Easement Agreements so that the Excess
Land and the remainder of the Leased Premises (the "Retained Premises") are
separate tracts, (ii) after such sale both the Excess Land and the Retained
Premises shall comply with all applicable Laws, Legal Requirements and Easement
Agreements, (iii) the release of the Excess Land does not materially impact the
functional use, legal use or viability of the Retained Premises, (iv) Tenant
shall have complied with all requirements of Lender set forth in the Mortgage
with respect to the release of the Excess Land, and (v) all Costs of Landlord,
Lender and Tenant in connection with the conveyance of the Excess Land and in
complying with the above conditions, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
-35-
38
shall be borne solely by Tenant. Landlord, as record title holder to the Excess
Land, shall cooperate with Tenant in obtaining a lawful subdivision of the
Leased Premises with separate parcels consisting of the Excess Land and the
Retained Premises, at no cost to Landlord. If Landlord conveys the Excess Land,
then, except for Surviving Obligations this Lease shall terminate with respect
to the Excess Land, but shall remain in full force and effect with respect to
the Retained Premises, provided, however, that in no event will the release of
the Excess Land from this Lease amend, reduce or modify any of the obligations
and liabilities of Tenant hereunder, including the obligations to pay Basic Rent
in the amount set forth in Exhibit "D" hereto.
(b) In the event at any time during the term Tenant determines
to construct or cause to be constructed improvements on the Excess Land, Tenant
shall so notify Landlord, and Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith
for Landlord to purchase the Excess Land from Tenant, construct such
improvements and lease the same to Tenant.
36. Financing Major Alterations.
(a) Should Tenant, during the Term of this Lease, desire to
make Alterations to any of the Leased Premises which are not readily removable
without causing material damage to the Leased Premises or to expand the
Improvements and which will cost in excess of $500,000 ("Major Alterations"),
Tenant may, prior to the commencement of construction of such Major Alterations,
request Landlord to reimburse the costs thereof (the "Alteration Cost") to
Tenant, to wit: cost of labor and materials, financing fees, legal fees, survey,
title insurance and other normal and customary loan or construction costs.
(b) Should Landlord agree to reimburse such costs, Landlord
and Tenant shall enter into good faith negotiations regarding the execution and
delivery of a written agreement of modification of this Lease, which agreement
shall provide for the following:
(i) payment by Landlord to Tenant of the Alteration Cost
within one hundred twenty (120) days of the date of Landlord's agreement to pay
the Alteration Cost, or in installment payments as agreed, or on the date of
completion of the Major Alterations, whichever shall be the later;
(ii) an increase in the annual Basic Rent payable during
the Amortization Period (as hereinafter defined) to an amount sufficient to
amortize the Alteration Cost ("Total Financing") over a period (the
"Amortization Period") which shall be the remainder of the then current Term
and, if Tenant so elects, any additional extension periods provided for herein
(so long as Tenant shall confirm any such extension periods included in the
Amortization Period by a written waiver of its right to give notice of its
intention not to renew this Lease prior to the expiration of such extension
periods), at such rate of interest and upon such other terms as shall be agreed
upon between Landlord and Tenant, but which shall be no less favorable than the
prevailing interest rate and terms for first unsecured loans in a principal
amount equal to the Total Financing for borrowers with credit ratings equivalent
to that of Tenant's at that time;
(iii) provide a rate of return to Landlord on Landlord's
equity investment in the Leased Premises equal to that enjoyed by Landlord
hereunder immediately prior to such proposed increase in Basic Rent; and
(iv) such other changes and amendments to this Lease as may
be necessary and appropriate in view of such payment of the Alteration Cost by
Landlord to Tenant.
-36-
39
(c) Tenant shall pay all Costs incurred by Landlord in
connection with any such modification to this Lease and such financing,
including closing costs, brokerage fees, taxes, recording charges and reasonable
legal fees and expenses.
(d) To the extent that the terms of the Mortgage or any other
document encumbering any of the Leased Premises shall require the consent of
Lender and/or the holder or holders of any encumbrance on any of the Leased
Premises (the "Encumbrancers") to the addition or construction of any Major
Alterations or to the financing thereof by Landlord, the rights and obligations
of Landlord and Tenant under Paragraph 13 and this Paragraph 36 are expressly
conditioned upon Tenant's obtaining, prior to the commencement of any
construction, the Encumbrancers' written consent to such construction and to
Landlord's obtaining, in the event Landlord has agreed to pay for the Major
Alterations, the Encumbrancers' written consent to such financing.
(e) If Landlord and Tenant do not reach agreement on Tenant's
request to have Landlord finance the Alteration Costs, Tenant shall, subject to
the provisions of Paragraph 13 of this Lease, have the right to construct the
Major Alterations at Tenant's sole cost and expense. In any event, the
construction of the Major Alterations shall be performed in accordance with the
provisions of Paragraph 13 hereof and the Major Alterations shall be the
property of Landlord and part of the Leased Premises subject to this Lease.
(f) Nothing contained in this Paragraph 36 shall be construed
to modify Paragraph 13 hereof, and the provisions of Paragraph 12 and
subparagraphs (i) and (ii) of Paragraph 13(a) shall apply to all Major
Alterations made or constructed hereunder, including the requirement for
Landlord's consent to Alterations.
37. Security Deposit.
(a) Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Tenant has
delivered to Landlord cash in the amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000)
(the "Security Deposit") which shall be deposited in a segregated
interest-bearing account (the "Account") with a financial institution or
institutions selected by Lender or Landlord. The Security Deposit shall secure
the payment by Tenant of the Rent and all other charges or payments to be paid
hereunder and the performance of the covenants and obligations contained herein.
(b) If at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing beyond the applicable grace period, if any, Landlord shall be

the Security Deposit or any portion thereof from the Account and to apply the
proceeds in payment of (i) any Rent or other charges for the payment of which
Tenant shall be in default, (ii) any expense incurred by Landlord in curing any
default of Tenant, (iii) any other sums due to Landlord in connection with any
default or the curing thereof, including, without limitation, any damages
incurred by Landlord by reason of such default, including maintenance expenses
and management fees and/or (iv) the payment of leasing commissions and tenant
improvements for any substitute tenant. If any portion of the Security Deposit
is used, retained or applied by Landlord for any purpose set forth above, Tenant
shall, within fifteen (15) days after demand therefor is made by Landlord,
provide to Landlord cash which complies with the requirements of this Paragraph
37 so that the Security Deposit is in the original principal amount thereof.
Landlord shall deliver to Tenant copies of all statements regarding the
account(s) in which the Security Deposit is held promptly after receipt thereof
by Landlord.
(c) So long as no Event of Default exists, at any time
following the later to occur of payment in full of the Initial Loan or the
expiration of the tenth (10th) Lease Year, the balance of the Security Deposit
shall be returned to Tenant upon the earlier to occur of:
-37-
40
(i) the expiration of the Term or
(ii) no later than fifteen (15) days after the date on
which Tenant receives a rating ("Required Rating")on its publicly-traded
unsecured senior debt of Baa3 or better from Xxxxx'x, provided that at the time
of such rating Tenant has a rating from S&P of not less than BB+.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time or from time
to time following the release of the Security Deposit pursuant to Subsection
(ii) of this Paragraph 37(c) (A) Tenant's publicly-traded unsecured debt rating
shall be downgraded to Ba1 or Ba2 from Xxxxx'x, and is BB or BB+ from S&P,
Tenant shall redeposit with Landlord a security deposit in the amount of Five
Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or (B) if such debt rating from Xxxxx'x shall be
less than Ba2 and from S&P shall be less than BB, Tenant shall redeposit with
Landlord Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (or if the deposit described in
clause (A) has been made, Five Million Dollars $5,000,000). Any such amounts
shall be deposited within fifteen (15) days following the downgrade of Tenant's
rating and any amounts so deposited shall be considered the "Security Deposit"
for the purposes of this Lease and shall thereafter be subject to the applicable
provisions of this Lease, including this subparagraph (c).
(e) At the request of Tenant (so long as no Event of Default
exists) the Security Deposit shall be invested in:

accrued on the Security Deposit shall be paid to Tenant as and when such
interest is received from the investment of the Security Deposit, but in no
event more than once per calendar quarter.
(g) Landlord shall have the right to designate Lender as the
holder of the Security Deposit during the term of the applicable Loan in which
event Lender shall have all of the rights of Landlord under this Paragraph 37.
Tenant covenants and agrees to execute such agreements, consents and
acknowledgments as may reasonably be requested by Landlord from time to time to
change the holder of the Security Deposit as hereinabove provided.
38. Right of First Refusal.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in clause (h) of this
Paragraph 38, and provided an Event of Default does not then exist, if Landlord
shall enter into a bona fide, arms-length contract for the sale (the "Sale
Contract") of the Leased Premises with a Third Party Purchaser (which Sale
Contract may include other property owned by Landlord so long as a specific
purchase price is allocated to the Leased Premises), such Sale Contract must be
conditioned upon Tenant's failure to exercise its right under this Xxxxxxxxx 00,
Xxxxxxxx shall give written notice to Tenant of the Sale Contract, together with
a copy of the executed Sale Contract and the name and business address of the
Third Party Purchaser.
(b) For a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of such
notice, Tenant shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to Landlord
given within said thirty (30) day period, to elect to purchase the Leased
Premises at the purchase price (calculated on a comparable after-tax basis with
respect to capital gains, including depreciation and in cash) and upon all the
terms and conditions set forth in such Sale Contract except that no
contingencies contained in such Sale Contract as to environmental assessments,
engineering studies, inspection of the Leased Premises, availability of
financing, sale of other property, state of the title to or encumbrances on the
Leased Premises, or any other condition or contingency to the Third Party
Purchaser's obligation to purchase the Leased Premises which pertains to the
condition of the Leased Premises, the Third Party Purchaser's ability to take
certain action or any other factor beyond the control of Landlord, shall apply
to Tenant's obligation to purchase the Leased Premises under this Paragraph 38,
and Tenant shall be obligated to purchase the Leased Premises without any such
condition or contingency.
(c) If at the expiration of the aforesaid thirty (30) day
period Tenant shall have failed to exercise the aforesaid right of first
refusal, Landlord may sell the Leased Premises to such Third Party Purchaser
upon the terms set forth in such contract.
(d) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the
closing date for any purchase of the Leased Premises by Tenant pursuant to this
Paragraph 38 shall be the earlier to occur of (i) ninety (90) days after the
date of Tenant's notice to Landlord of its intention to purchase the Leased
Premises upon the terms of a Sale Contract with a Third Party Purchaser and (ii)
the closing date provided in such Sale Contract. At such closing Landlord shall
convey the Leased Premises to Tenant in accordance with, and Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the purchase price and other consideration set forth in, the applicable
contract.
(e) Tenant shall have the right during the Term to exercise
the foregoing right of first refusal upon (i) each proposed sale of the Leased
Premises prior to the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of this Lease and
(ii) one (1) time during the period commencing with the tenth (10th) anniversary
of the date of this Lease and ending with the last day of the Term; provided,
that if, following compliance with the procedure described in Paragraph 38(b), a
Third Party Purchaser does not purchase the Leased Premises, such event shall
not count as an exercise of Tenant's right of first refusal.
-39-
42
(f) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, SUCH RIGHT SHALL
TERMINATE AND BE NULL AND VOID AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT IF (1) TENANT
FAILS TO EXERCISE THE RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL GRANTED PURSUANT TO THIS PARAGRAPH
38(e)(ii), AND THE SALE TO THE THIRD PARTY PURCHASER IS CONSUMMATED OR IF (2)
THIS LEASE TERMINATES OR THE TERM EXPIRES OR (3) IF THE LEASED PREMISES ARE SOLD
OR TRANSFERRED PURSUANT TO THE EXERCISE OF A PRIVATE POWER OF SALE OR JUDICIAL
FORECLOSURE OR ACCEPTANCE OF A DEED IN LIEU THEREOF. IN SUCH EVENT TENANT SHALL
EXECUTE A QUITCLAIM DEED AND SUCH OTHER DOCUMENTS AS LANDLORD SHALL REASONABLY
REQUEST EVIDENCING THE TERMINATION OF ITS RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.
(g) If Tenant does not exercise its right of first refusal to
purchase the Leased Premises and the Leased Premises are transferred to a Third
Party Purchaser, Tenant will attorn to any Third Party Purchaser as Landlord so
long as such Third Party Purchaser and Landlord notify Tenant in writing of such
transfer. At the request of Landlord, Tenant will execute such documents
confirming the agreement referred to above and such other agreements as Landlord
may reasonably request, provided that such agreements do not increase the
liabilities and obligations of Tenant hereunder.
(h) The provisions of this Paragraph 38 shall not apply to or
prohibit (i) any mortgaging, subjection to deed of trust or other hypothecation
of Landlord's interest in the Leased Premises, (ii) any sale of the Leased
Premises pursuant to a private power of sale under or judicial foreclosure of
any Mortgage or other security instrument or device to which Landlord's interest
in the Leased Premises is now or heareafter subject, (iii) any transfer of
Landlord's interest in the Leased Premises to a Lender, beneficiary under deed
of trust or other holder of a security interest therein or their designees by
deed in lieu of foreclosure; (iv) any transfer of the Leased Premises to any
governmental or quasi-governmental agency with power of condemnation, (v) any

sells all or substantially all of its assets, or (viii) any transfer of the
Leased Premises to any of the successors or assigns of any of the Persons
referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv).

Lease may be performed at any reasonable time and from time to time upon prior
written notice to Tenant (except in the event of an emergency in which case no
notice shall be required) by Landlord or any person or entity designated by
Landlord. Each appointment of Landlord as attorney-in-fact for Tenant hereunder
is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Time is of the essence with respect
to the performance by each party of their respective obligations under this
Lease.
(d) Landlord shall in no event be construed for any purpose to
be a partner, joint venturer or associate of Tenant or of any subtenant,
operator, concessionaire or licensee of Tenant with respect to any of the Leased

Tenant, the obligations of each shall be joint and several.
(h) If any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Lease shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in

any other provision of this Lease, but this Lease shall be construed as if such

be, shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay,
interruption or prevention.

4. Effective Dates of CPI Adjustments. Basic Rent shall not be adjusted
to reflect changes in the CPI until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Basic
Rent Payment Date on which the first full monthly installment of Basic Rent
shall be due and payable (the "First Full Basic Rent Payment Date"). As of the
third (3rd) anniversary of the First Full Basic Rent Payment Date and thereafter
on the sixth (6th), ninth (9th), twelfth (12th), fifteenth (15th) and eighteenth
(18th) and, if the initial Term is extended, on the twenty-first (21st),
twenty-fourth (24th), and twenty-seventh (27th), and, if the Term is further
extended, on the thirtieth (30th), thirty-third (33rd), thirty-sixth (36th) and
thirty-ninth (39th) anniversaries of the First Full Basic Rent Payment Date and,
if the Term is further extended pursuant to Paragraph 5(c), on each third (3rd )
anniversary of the First Full Rent Payment Date thereafter, Basic Rent shall be
adjusted to reflect increases in the CPI during the most recent three (3) year
period immediately preceding each of the foregoing dates (each such date being
hereinafter referred to as the "Basic Rent Adjustment Date").
49
5. Method of Adjustment for CPI Adjustment.
(a) As of each Basic Rent Adjustment Date when the average CPI
determined in clause (i) below exceeds the Beginning CPI (as defined in this
Paragraph 5(a)), the Basic Rent in effect immediately prior to the applicable
Basic Rent Adjustment Date shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be two (2) times the difference between (i) the average CPI for the
three (3) most recent calendar months (the "Prior Months") ending prior to such
Basic Rent Adjustment Date for which the CPI has been published on or before the
forty-fifth (45th) day preceding such Basic Rent Adjustment Date and (ii) the
Beginning CPI, and the denominator of which shall be the Beginning CPI. An
amount equal to the lesser of (x) the product of such multiplication or 6.903%
of the Basic Rent in effect immediately prior to such Basic Rent Adjustment Date
shall be added to the Basic Rent in effect immediately prior to such Basic Rent
Adjustment Date. As used herein, "Beginning CPI" shall mean the average CPI for
the three (3) calendar months corresponding to the Prior Months, but occurring
three (3) years earlier. If the average CPI determined in clause (i) is the same
or less than the Beginning CPI, the Basic Rent will remain the same for the
ensuing three (3) year period.
(b) Effective as of a given Basic Rent Adjustment Date, Basic Rent
payable under this Lease until the next succeeding Basic Rent Adjustment Date
shall be the Basic Rent in effect after the adjustment provided for as of such
Basic Rent Adjustment Date.
(c) Notice of the new annual Basic Rent shall be delivered to Tenant
on or before the tenth (10th) day preceding each Basic Rent Adjustment Date, but
any failure to do so by Landlord shall not be or be deemed to be a waiver by
Landlord of Landlord's rights to collect such sums. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, within ten (10) days after a notice of the new annual Basic Rent is
delivered to Tenant, all amounts due from Tenant, but unpaid, because the stated
amount as set forth above was not delivered to Tenant at least ten (10) days
preceding the Basic Rent Adjustment Date in question.
