The Premises are hereby leased to Tenant from Landlord, together with the right to use any portions of the Property that are designated as Common Areas, subject to the terms, conditions, and provisions set forth in this Lease.
3. Possession.
3.1 Subject to Landlord’s obligation to perform the Landlord Work, the Premises are accepted by Tenant in “As Is” condition and configuration without any representations or warranties by Landlord. Except as otherwise set forth in this Lease, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that (a) Landlord has not made any representation or warranty with respect to (i) the condition of the Premises, the Building or the Project or (ii) the suitability or fitness of any of the same for the conduct of Tenant’s Permitted Use, its business or for any other purpose and (b) the purpose of Exhibit A is to show the approximate location of the Premises in the Building, only, and that such Exhibit A is not meant to constitute an agreement, representation or warranty as to the construction of the Premises, the precise area thereof or the specific location of the Common Areas, or the elements thereof, or of the accessways to the Premises, the Building or the Project, or any portion thereof. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises, the Project and the Building were at such time in good and sanitary order. Landlord shall endeavor to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant in the condition required (in connection with such delivery) under this Lease and the Work Letter (the “Delivery Condition”) prior to or on the Target Delivery Date; provided, however, that in the event that such delivery is delayed for any reason or the Delivery Date otherwise does not occur on or before the Target Delivery Date, this Lease shall not be void or voidable (or terminable by Tenant), the Term of this Lease shall not be extended, and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting from such delay or from the failure of the delivery of possession of the Premises to occur on any particular date.
3.2 Promptly after the determination of the Commencement Date, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a Commencement Date Letter substantially in the form attached as Exhibit I. Tenant’s failure to execute and return the Commencement Letter shall in no way affect the Commencement Date, Rent Commencement Date or Expiration Date under this Lease.
4. Rent.
4.
4.1 Subject to the provisions of this Lease, commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant agrees to pay during the Term of this Lease as Base Rent (“Base Rent”) for the Premises the sums shown for such periods shown in Section 1.09. Tenant shall pay Landlord, without any setoff or deduction, unless expressly set forth in this Lease, all Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the Term (collectively referred to as “Rent”). “Additional Rent” means all sums (exclusive of Base Rent) that Tenant is required to pay Landlord under this Lease. Base Rent shall be payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 1.09 in advance on or before the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term without notice or demand. All other items of Rent shall be due and payable by Tenant on or before the date 30 days after billing by Landlord. Rent shall be made payable to the entity, and sent to the address, Landlord designates and shall be made by good and sufficient check or by wire transfer pursuant to an account designated by Landlord upon request or by other means acceptable to Landlord. Rent for any partial month during the Term shall be prorated. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and provided that a Default has not occurred under this Lease, Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent for months one (1) through seven (7) of the Initial Term (the “Abatement Period”) shall be abated (the “Abated Monthly Base Rent”). Should a Default occur at any time prior to the expiration of the Abatement Period, then Tenant’s right to any future abatement of any Base Rent pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall automatically terminate and shall be of no further force and effect.
4.2 If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant under this Lease shall not be received by Landlord when due, Tenant shall pay Landlord an administration fee equal to five percent (5%) of such past due Rent; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to notice of nonpayment and a five (5) day cure period prior to the imposition of such administration fee with respect to the first (1st) occasion during the Term that an installment of Rent is not timely paid. In addition, past due Rent shall accrue interest at 18% per annum but not more than the maximum amount permitted by applicable Law (the “Default Rate”). Landlord’s acceptance of less than the correct amount of Rent shall be considered a payment on account of the earliest Rent due. No endorsement or statement on a check or letter accompanying payment shall be considered an accord and satisfaction.
4.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the installment of Base Rent representing the first full calendar month of the Term after the Rent Commencement Date; such prepaid Base Rent will be applied to the Base Rent payable hereunder immediately following the expiration of the Abatement Period.
4.4 Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of excess Property Taxes and excess Operating Expenses in accordance with Exhibit B of this Lease. Without limitation on any other obligations of Tenant which survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, the obligations of Tenant to pay and/or Landlord to reconcile and reimburse, if applicable, the Additional Rent provided for in Exhibit B shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Term.
5.
4.5 In addition to the Base Rent and all other forms of Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within fifteen (15) days of written demand as Additional Rent for any and all taxes, impositions or similar fees or charges (other than any of the same actually included by Landlord in Property Taxes with respect to the Expense Year in question) payable by or imposed or assessed upon Landlord upon or with respect to (or measured by or otherwise attributable to the cost or value of): (a) any fixtures, equipment or other personal property located or installed in or about the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant; (b) any Leasehold Improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant (without regard to ownership of such improvements) if and to the extent the original cost, replacement cost or value thereof (as determined in good faith by Landlord in accordance with Institutional Owner Practices) exceeds Fifty Dollars ($50.00) per Rentable Square Foot contained in the Premises; (c) the Rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any gross receipts tax, sales taxes, use taxes, license fee or excise tax levied by any governmental authority; (d) the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy of any portion of the Premises (including without limitation any applicable possessory interest taxes); or (e) this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
5. Compliance with Laws; Use.
5.1 The Premises shall be used for the Permitted Use and for purposes reasonably incidental thereto consistent with a first class office project, and Tenant shall not use the Premises, or permit the Premises to be used, for any other use whatsoever. Subject to Landlord’s prior written approval of plans therefore, Tenant shall have the right to use a portion of the Premises for the operation of, and include in the Tenant Improvements (or subsequent Alterations) the construction of, a kitchen/pantry facility (which in no event may include gas stoves or other gas appliances) for Tenant’s employees and guests only (in no event shall such kitchen/pantry facility be open to or serve the general public), including the installation of one or more dishwashers on and subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense (subject to the application of the Tenant Improvement Allowance), for obtaining all applicable permits, licenses and governmental approvals necessary for the use of the Premises for such kitchen/pantry facility uses (including, without limitation, any necessary approvals from the applicable health and/or fire departments, permits required in connection with any venting or other air-removal/circulation system, and any required fire-suppression systems), copies of which shall be delivered to Landlord prior to Tenant’s installation of any alterations in the Premises in connection with such kitchen/pantry facility uses; and (ii) in no event may such kitchen/cooking facility require any alterations to the Base Building. Tenant will additionally have the right to devote a reasonable portion of the Premises towards the operation of a fitness/wellness center for Tenant’s employees (including, at Tenant’s option, shower and/or locker facilities) subject to such reasonable rules and regulations regarding such operations as Landlord may implement for such fitness center. The uses prohibited under this Lease include, without limitation, use of the Premises or a portion thereof for (i) offices of any agency or bureau of United States or any state or political subdivision thereof; (ii) offices or agencies of any foreign governmental or political subdivision thereof; (iii) offices of any
6.
health care professionals-or service organization; (iv) schools or other training facilities which are not ancillary to corporate, executive or professional office use or in-house training of Tenant’s employees; (v) retail or restaurant uses; or (vi) communications firms such as radio and/or television stations. Tenant shall not allow the average occupancy density of use of the total Premises to exceed a density of five (5) occupants per thousand Rentable Square Feet (5/1,000) contained in the Premises (the “Standard Density”). Tenant may, however, occupy the Premises at a density greater than the Standard Density (but not greater than seven (7) occupants per thousand Rentable Square Feet (7/1,000)), provided that such occupancy density is in compliance with applicable Law; Tenant acknowledges that the Building Systems are not designed to service space occupied at a density greater than the Standard Density, and, as a consequence, if and to the extent that Tenant desires additional HVAC services or electrical infrastructure to service any portion of the Premises as a result of Tenant’s occupancy of any portion of the Premises at a density greater than the Standard Density, Tenant will bear the actual cost of providing such additional HVAC service or electrical infrastructure as well as the cost of any additional wear and tear on, or maintenance of, the Building or Building Systems as a result of occupancy beyond the Standard Density at any time. During the Term on each anniversary of the Effective Date, upon written request by Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a certification stating the then-current and average density of the Premises during the preceding year. Additionally, Tenant’s employees will be allowed to bring bicycles into the Premises provided that only the Building’s freight elevator is used for such purpose (Landlord will not charge any fee for such freight elevator usage). The indemnification provisions of this Lease shall apply to any claims relating to kitchen, pantry, fitness/wellness center, shower and locker room facilities.
5.2 Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain and maintain in full force and effect all governmental licenses, approvals and permits required to allow Tenant to conduct Tenant’s Permitted Use. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with all Laws applicable to (a) the operation of Tenant’s business in the Premises and (b) the use, condition, configuration, improvement and occupancy of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord (rather than Tenant) shall be responsible for complying with all such requirements relating to the Building structure, Building Systems and Common Areas, except to the extent such compliance is triggered by (a) Tenant’s particular use of the Premises as opposed to office use, (b) Tenant’s construction of Alterations in the Premises that are not office improvements or (c) Tenant’s Default. Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with copies of any notices it receives regarding an alleged violation of Law applicable to the foregoing. Should any federal, state or local governmental agency having jurisdiction with respect to the establishment, regulation or enforcement of occupational, health or safety standards for employers, employees or tenants impose on Landlord or on Tenant at any time now or in the future any requirement or Law relating in any manner to the Premises or occupancy thereof, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply promptly (or at Landlord’s election, bear the cost of such compliance as effected by Landlord) with such requirement or Law.
5.3 Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense. promptly comply with all other Laws that relate to the Premises. Tenant shall also, at its sole cost and expense, promptly comply with all Laws
7.
relating to the Base Building, but only to the extent such obligations are triggered by (a) Tenant’s use of the Premises (other than for general office use) or (b) Alterations or improvements in the Premises performed or requested by Tenant. “Base Building” shall mean the structural portions of the Building, the public restrooms, elevators, exit stairwells (and other Common Areas), and the Building mechanical, electrical life safety, HVAC and plumbing systems and equipment serving the Building (the “Building Systems”).
5.4 Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with (a) all recorded covenants, conditions and restrictions (“CC&RS’s”) now or hereafter affecting the Project, (b) any special use permit, zoning variance, conditional use permit or planned development permit applicable to the Project, and any other zoning or governmental land use Law applicable to the Premises or the Project, and (c) the Building Rules and Regulations attached as Exhibit C and such other rules and regulations adopted by Landlord in good faith from time to time, including rules and regulations for the performance of Alterations. Landlord shall not enforce such Building Rules and Regulations in a manner that discriminates against Tenant. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Lease and the provisions of any such rules and regulations, the terms and conditions of this Lease shall control. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way damage the reputation of the Project or allow the Premises to be used for any unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises or the Project.
6. Electricity.
6.1 Landlord will provide at all times, electric current as required for Building standard lighting and fractional horsepower office machines and adequate electrical wiring and facilities for connection to the lighting fixtures and incidental use equipment of Tenant sufficient to provide five (5) xxxxx per usable square foot of the Premises (“Standard Electrical Capacity”); provided, however, that notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary the total connected electrical load for all of the incidental use equipment located in the Premises shall in no case exceed the Standard Electrical Capacity with the electricity so furnished for incidental use equipment to be at a nominal one hundred twenty (120) volts and with no electrical circuit for the supply of such equipment to require a current capacity exceeding twenty (20) amperes, and the total connected electrical load for Tenant’s lighting fixtures within the Premises shall in no case exceed the Standard Electrical Capacity, and the electricity so furnished for Tenant’s lighting to be at a nominal one hundred twenty (120) volts. Without Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall not install, or permit the installation, in the Premises of any computers, word processors, electronic data processing equipment or other type of equipment or machines which will increase Tenant’s use of electric current in excess of the Standard Electrical Capacity (any such excess, “Excess Electrical Requirements”). If Tenant shall require or utilize Excess Electrical Requirements, Landlord, at its election in its sole and absolute discretion (a) may refuse to grant its consent or (b) may condition its consent upon Tenant’s payment in advance of Landlord’s total direct and indirect cost (including, without limitation, a reasonable administration fee) of designing, installing, maintaining and providing any additional facilities reasonably determined by Landlord to be required to satisfy such
8.
Excess Electrical Requirements (or otherwise related to the additional wear on Building Systems associated therewith). If Tenant’s actual electricity consumption for any portion of the Premises, as determined in good faith by Landlord pursuant to such measurement method or methods as Landlord shall employ from time to time (including, without limitation, the use of submeters and/or pulse meters, electrical surveys and/or engineer’s estimates) constitutes Excess Electrical Requirements, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent in addition to those costs otherwise payable by Tenant pursuant to Exhibit B, the sum of (i) Landlord’s actual direct and indirect costs of supplying such Excess Electrical Requirements, including, without limitation, all taxes thereon, and the reasonably calculated cost of additional wear on Building Systems resulting from such excess consumption, (ii) all of Landlord’s costs of monitoring and measuring such excess consumption and (iii) Landlord’s reasonable administration fee. If Tenant’s Excess Electrical Requirements will materially affect the temperature level in the Premises or in the Building, Landlord’s consent may be conditioned upon Tenant’s payment of all direct and indirect costs of installation and operation of any machinery or equipment necessary to restore the temperature level to that otherwise required to be provided by Landlord, including, but not limited to, the cost of modifications to the Building Systems and increased wear and tear on existing HVAC equipment. Landlord shall not, in any way, be liable or responsible to Tenant for any loss or damage or expense which Tenant may incur or sustain if, for any reason, either the quantity or character of electric service is changed or is no longer available or suitable for Tenant’s requirements. Tenant covenants that at all times its use of electric current shall never exceed the capacity of the feeders, risers or electrical installations of the Building or the Project, provided that such feeders, risers or electrical installations are sufficient to provide the Standard Electrical Capacity. Tenant shall bear the cost of replacement of lamps, starters and ballasts for non-Building standard lighting fixtures within the Premises, which work will, at Tenant’s option, be contracted for by Landlord for Tenant’s account.
6.2 Currently, the cost of providing electricity for Tenant’s consumption within the Premises (and electricity for consumption within the premises of each other tenant in the Building generally) is included within Operating Expenses. For Tenant alone and/or for one or more (or all) of the tenants in the Building, Landlord shall have the option of installing sub-meters at Landlord’s expense to measure Tenant’s consumption of electrical energy within the Premises (and/or to measure the consumption of electrical energy within the premises of some or all of the other tenants in the Building) and to charge individual tenants on the basis of their individual electricity consumption within their Premises, as so metered, or to elect for Tenant to pay directly to the utility company for such services. If Landlord exercises such option with respect to the measurement (and imposition of direct charges for) consumption of electrical energy within the Premises (or for such portion of such consumption that Landlord reasonably determines to so submeter) (in either case, “Submetered Premises Electricity Consumption”), at the election of Landlord, for such periods as Landlord shall determine in good faith (i) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, within fifteen (15) days of demand (which demand is accompanied by reasonable back-up documentation) from time to time, but no more frequently than monthly, for the consumption of electrical energy at the then applicable utility rate for such Submetered Premises Electricity Consumption within the Premises (plus applicable taxes, assessments and charges) plus Landlord’s commercially reasonable
9.
charge for overhead and supervision of such process, and (ii) there shall be deleted from the calculation of Operating Expenses, all charges for electricity consumption within the premises of all tenants in the Building (to the extent such consumption is submetered in the Premises). In the event of Landlord’s election to utilize such direct metering and direct charges, thereafter, Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the practice of such direct consumption charges. Landlord’s rights under this Section 6.02 shall be in addition, and without prejudice, to Landlord’s rights to measure Excess Electrical Requirements under Section 6.01. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Premises is currently separately submetered for electricity and Tenant shall pay all electricity charges directly to PG&E; and, accordingly, for so long as Landlord so elects for Tenant to pay all electricity charges directly to PG&E, Operating Expenses will not include the cost of electricity consumption within the Premises (other than costs related to Excess Electrical Requirements as provided in Section 6.01) or any other tenant’s premises and, should Landlord subsequently elect to terminate the practice of such direct consumption charge to the Premises, Operating Expenses will be adjusted to include such electrical charges and Base Year Operating Expenses will be similarly adjusted to include electricity charges to the Premises for the Base Year, calculated in accordance with Exhibit B.
7. Building Services.
7.1 As long as Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, as part of Operating Expenses for the Premises and subject to the provisions of this Lease, Landlord agrees to furnish or cause to be furnished during the Term the following utilities and services, subject to the conditions and standards set forth herein:
(a) City water from the regular Building outlets for use in the Base Building lavatories and pantry to be drawn from the public lavatory in the core of the floor or floors on which the Premises is located; if Tenant elects to install a kitchen in the Premises, Landlord agrees to provide water service to such kitchen, provided that (i) Tenant shall be responsible for the cost (subject to the application of the Tenant Improvement Allowance) of extending any water supply infrastructure from the connection to the second (2nd) floor to said kitchen and (ii) any such water consumed at such kitchen shall be separately metered, measured or calculated and Tenant shall be responsible for the actual cost of consumption of such water (plus Landlord’s cost incurred in the calculation of such consumption);
(b) heat, ventilation and air conditioning in season during Building Service Hours, except for the date of observation of New Year’s Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Memorial Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day, and at Landlord’s good faith discretion, other state and nationally recognized holidays selected by Landlord which are consistent with Institutional Owner Practices (collectively, the “Holidays”) in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 7.03 below, although Tenant shall have the right to receive HVAC service during hours other than Building Service Hours (“After Hours HVAC”) by paying Landlord’s then prevailing charges (reflecting Landlord’s good faith estimate of Landlord’s actual direct and indirect cost of providing such After Hours HVAC to an individual floor or zone including, without limitation,
10.
the cost of utility service, accelerated wear and tear and depreciation of Building Systems, labor required for processing Tenant After Hours HVAC requests and operating the Building HVAC system, together with a reasonable administration fee) for supplying such After Hours HVAC (collectively, the “After Hours HVAC Rate”) within thirty (30) days of receipt of a reasonably detailed xxxx therefor, and providing Landlord’s property management office with prior written or electronic mail notice (which at a minimum shall be 24 hours written notice for weekday use and written notice prior to 8 a.m. on Friday for weekend use) of Tenant’s desired After Hours HVAC use and upon such additional reasonable conditions as shall be determined by Landlord from time to time. As of the Effective Date, Landlord’s After Hours HVAC rate is $50.00 per hour. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay to Landlord any additional costs (including, without limitation, the costs of installation of additional HVAC equipment) incurred by Landlord because of the failure of the HVAC system to perform its function due to arrangement of partitioning in the Premises or changes or alterations thereto or from any use by Tenant of heat-generating machinery or equipment other than normal office equipment, including small photocopying machines and personal computers not linked to a central mainframe at the Premises;
(c) passenger and freight elevator service in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 7.02 below;
(d) electricity in accordance with the terms and conditions of Article 6;
(e) access to the Building and Premises for Tenant and its employees 24 hours per day/7 days per week, subject to the terms of this Lease and such protective services or monitoring systems, if any, as Landlord may reasonably impose, including, without limitation, at the election of Landlord in its sole discretion, sign-in procedures and/or presentation of identification cards; provided, however, that Landlord shall at all times provide a security system(s) and procedures for the Building which are consistent with other Class “A” projects in the South of Market Area, including but not limited to a security desk manned by building security or property management personnel on a 24/7 basis. Tenant recognizes to the extent Landlord provides the same, any access control or security services provided by Landlord at the Project are for the protection of Landlord’s property and under no circumstances shall Landlord be responsible for, and in any case, Tenant waives any and all claims and rights with respect to the provision of access control services, security or other protection for Tenant or its employees, invitees or property in or about the Premises or the Project. Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense, install its own security system (“Tenant’s Security System”) in the Premises; provided, however, that (i) Tenant’s Security System shall be compatible with the Building Systems (ii) the plans and specifications for Tenant’s Security System shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, and (iii) the installation of Tenant’s Security System shall otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 9 of this Lease and/or the Work Letter;
(f) window-washing services to the Common Areas and exterior of the Premises windows only; and
11.
(g) such other services as Landlord in good faith determines are necessary or appropriate for the Property.
Any amounts which Tenant is required to pay to Landlord pursuant to this Section 7.01 shall be payable within ten (10) days following written demand by Landlord accompanied by reasonably detailed backup documentation and shall constitute Additional Rent. From time to time during the Term, Landlord shall have the right to modify the services provided to Tenant hereunder; provided that such modified services are consistent with Institutional Owner Practices.
Except as provided otherwise herein (including, without limitation, with respect to the After Hours HVAC Rate and in any instance in which an express cost (or cost formula) is provided in this Lease), Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s Actual Costs of providing any utilities and/or services to Tenant in excess of those utilities and/or services which Landlord is obligated to provide to Tenant under the terms of this Lease. For purposes of this Lease, “Actual Costs” shall mean the incremental, out-of-pocket costs paid to third parties without a markup for administration, profit, overhead or depreciation.
Landlord shall not provide janitorial services to the Premises. Such services shall be provided by and paid for by Tenant, using a janitorial contractor selected by Tenant, and reasonably approved by Landlord.
7.2 Landlord shall provide non-exclusive, non-attended automatic passenger elevator service to the floor of the Premises of the Building during Business Service Hours on Business Days in a manner consistent with Institutional Owner Practices, with at least one elevator being subject to call at all other times. In addition, Landlord shall make available to Tenant at least one freight elevator serving the Premises upon Tenant’s prior request, on a non-exclusive “first come, first serve” basis with other Building tenants, on all Business Days during Business Service Hours. Overtime freight elevator service shall be scheduled in advance with Landlord according to the Building Rules and Regulations, subject to labor restrictions at the Building and applicable union contract requirements if applicable.
7.3 Landlord shall have access to all air-cooling, fan, ventilating and machine rooms and electrical closets and all other mechanical installations of Landlord (collectively, the “Mechanical Areas”), and Tenant shall not construct partitions or other obstructions which may interfere with Landlord’s access thereto or the moving of Landlord’s equipment to and from the Mechanical Areas. Tenant shall not enter the Mechanical Areas or tamper with, adjust, or otherwise affect the Mechanical Areas or install any supplementary or auxiliary HVAC equipment to serve the Premises without Landlord’s prior consent in each instance, which Landlord may grant, condition or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. Landlord shall not be responsible if the normal operation of the Building System providing HVAC to the Premises (the “HVAC System”) shall fail to provide (or shall provide less) cooled or heated air, as the case may be, by reason of (a) any machinery or equipment installed by or on behalf of Tenant, which shall have an electrical load in excess of the average electrical load set forth in this Lease (or as specified by Landlord), or (b) any
12.
rearrangement of partitioning or other Alterations made or performed by or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant at all times shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord and shall abide by the Building Rules and Regulations which Landlord may reasonably prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the HVAC System.
7.4 Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to furnish, stoppage of, or interruption in furnishing any of the services or utilities described in Section 7.01 (or elsewhere under this Lease) when such failure is caused by accident, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, labor disturbances, governmental regulation, civil disturbances, acts of war, moratorium or other governmental action, or any other cause, and, in such event, Tenant shall not be entitled to any damages (or any other remedy) nor shall any failure or interruption xxxxx or suspend Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent and/or Additional Rent required under this Lease or constitute or be construed as a constructive or other eviction of Tenant. In the event any governmental or quasi-governmental authority or public utility promulgates or revises any Law or issues mandatory controls or voluntary guidelines relating to the use or conservation of energy, water, gas, light or electricity, the reduction of automobile or other emissions, or the provision of any other utility or service, Landlord may take any action to comply with such Law, mandatory control or voluntary guideline as Landlord shall determine in good faith is appropriate under the circumstances (and is consistent with Institutional Owner Practices) without affecting Tenant’s obligations hereunder, or giving rise to any right or remedy of Tenant hereunder. Landlord makes no representation with respect to the adequacy or fitness of the Building’s HVAC system to maintain temperatures as may be required for the operation of any computer, data processing or other special equipment.
8. Leasehold Improvements.
All improvements in and to the Premises, including any Alterations (collectively, “Leasehold Improvements”) shall remain upon the Premises at the end of the Term without compensation to Tenant, provided that Tenant, at its expense, in compliance with all applicable Laws, shall remove any Cable and close up any slab penetrations in the Premises. In addition, Landlord, by written notice to Tenant at least thirty (30) days prior to the Expiration Date, may notify Tenant that all or any portion of such Alterations constitute a Required Removable (defined below) which Tenant will be required, at Tenant’s expense, to remove at the Expiration Date (or upon sooner termination of this Lease); notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant, in its request for consent to any Alterations, expressly requests that Landlord notify Tenant concurrently with its consent (if consent is granted) as to whether the Alterations in question will be Required Removables, Landlord will, concurrently with Landlord’s consent to such Alteration (if such consent is granted) notify Tenant as to whether such Alterations (or any portion thereof) constitute a Required Removable which must be removed as described above at the end of the term, failing which Landlord will be deemed to have waived its right to require removal of such Alteration(s). As used herein, “Required Removables” means any Alterations that, in Landlord’s good faith judgment, are of a nature which would likely be unusable (or not desire to be used) by most subsequent full floor tenants. Whether or not stated at the time Landlord gives consent to any Alterations, Required Removables shall always include, without limitation, Cable, internal stairways, fountains, fish tanks,
13.
raised computer floors, raised floors, personal baths, restrooms and/or showers, supplemental HVAC units and equipment, vaults, rolling file systems, kitchen, gym or fitness facilities and equipment, locker or shower facilities and structural alterations and modifications. Required Removables shall be removed by Tenant prior to the Expiration Date (or any earlier date of termination of this Lease). At least fifteen (15) days prior to commencing the removal of any Cable or Required Removables or the closing of any slab penetrations, Tenant shall notify Landlord of its intention to remove such Cable or Required Removables or effect such closings, and provide to Landlord, for its approval, structural or other drawings describing the proposed removal, and if Landlord notifies Tenant within such fifteen (15) day period, Tenant shall not remove such Cable and/or Required Removables and/or close such slab penetrations, and the Cable and/or Required Removables not so removed shall become the property of Landlord upon the Expiration Date or sooner termination of the Term. Tenant shall repair all damage to the Premises, the Leasehold Improvements and/or the Project caused by any such installation or removal by Tenant of any Cable or Required Removables.
9. Repairs and Alterations.
9.1 Subject to Landlord’s obligations under Section 9.02, Tenant shall periodically inspect the Premises to identify any conditions that are dangerous or in need of maintenance or repair and shall promptly provide Landlord with notice of any such conditions. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, perform all maintenance and repairs to the non-structural portions of the Premises, and keep the Premises and all Leasehold Improvement therein in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant’s repair and maintenance obligations include, without limitation, repairs to: (a) floor coverings; (b) interior partitions; (c) doors; (d) the interior side of demising walls; (e) electronic, fiber, phone and data cabling and related equipment that is installed by or for the benefit of Tenant (collectively, “Cable”); (f) supplemental air conditioning units, kitchens, hot water heaters, plumbing, and similar facilities exclusively serving Tenant; and (g) Alterations. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the actual cost of repairing damage to the Building caused by the acts of Tenant, Tenant Parties and their respective contractors, invitees and vendors. If Tenant fails to commence and diligently proceed with any repairs to the Premises which are required hereunder for more than fifteen (15) days after notice from Landlord (although notice shall not be required in an emergency), Landlord may, upon notice to Tenant, make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay the Landlord’s good faith cost of the repairs. Further, Tenant shall be responsible for, and upon demand by Landlord shall promptly reimburse Landlord for, any damage to any portion of the Project, the Building or the Premises caused by (i) activities of Tenant or any Tenant Party in the Project, the Building or the Premises; (ii) the performance or existence of any Alterations made by Tenant or any Tenant Party in or to the Premises; (iii) the installation, use, operation or movement of Tenant’s property in or about the Project, the Building or the Premises; or (iv) any act or omission by Tenant or any Tenant Party or any other person permitted in or invited to the Premises or the Project by Tenant or any Tenant Party. Without Landlord’s prior written consent, which Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion, Tenant shall not use any portion of the Common Areas in connection with the making of any Alterations, and Tenant shall not modify or alter any improvements or components of the Building or the Project outside of the Premises.
14.
9.2 Subject to Force Majeure, Landlord shall, consistent with Institutional Owner Practices keep the Common Areas of the Building and the Project, and the Building structure in a clean and neat condition. Subject to Force Majeure and Section 9.01, Landlord shall make all necessary repairs, within a reasonable period following receipt of written notice of the need therefor from Tenant, to the exterior walls and windows of the Building, and to public corridors and other public areas of the Project not constituting a portion of any tenant’s premises and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep all Building Systems used by Tenant in common with other tenants in reasonable condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the repair and maintenance of, and all damage to, the Building or the Project (or any component thereof) resulting from the design and operation of all Leasehold Improvements which are not in compliance with the Specifications in or serving the Premises installed by or at the request of Tenant (regardless of whether installed by Landlord, its agents or contractors or third party contractors). There shall be no abatement of Rent, nor shall there be any liability of Landlord, by reason of any injury to, or damage suffered by Tenant, including without limitation, any inconvenience to, or interference with, Tenant’s business or operations arising from the making of, or failure to make, any maintenance or repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any portion of the Premises or the Building. Tenant waives the right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code, and under all other similar laws, statutes or ordinances now or hereafter in effect. No provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, Alterations or decorations to the Premises or the Project except as otherwise expressly agreed to be performed by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.
9.3 Tenant shall not make alterations, repairs, additions or improvements or install any Cable (collectively referred to as “Alterations”) without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord in each instance. However, Landlord’s consent shall not be required for any Alteration that satisfies all of the following criteria (a “Cosmetic Alteration”), although not less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Landlord shall be required: (a) is of a cosmetic nature such as painting (but excluding wallpaper), hanging pictures and installing carpeting; (b) is not visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building (or from any Common Area); (c) will not affect the Base Building; (d) does not require work to be performed inside the walls or above the ceiling of the Premises; (e) the costs thereof do not exceed $10,000.00, in the aggregate within any twelve (12) month period; and (f) does not require a building permit or other governmental permit or approval. Cosmetic Alterations shall be subject to all the other provisions of this Article 9. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to Alterations so long as such Alterations (i) are non-structural and do not affect the Building Systems, (ii) with respect to all Building Systems (including fire and life safety systems), are performed only by Landlord’s designated contractors (provided such contractors charge commercially reasonable rates for their services) or with respect to mechanical, engineering, electrical plumbing and HVAC by contractors approved by Landlord to perform such Alterations, (iii) affect only the Premises and are not visible from outside of the Premises or the Building (or from any Common Area), (iv) do not affect the certificate of occupancy issued for the Building or the Premises, (v) are reasonably consistent with the design, construction and equipment
15.
of the Building, and (vi) do not adversely affect (other than to a de minimis extent) any Building System or service furnished by Landlord in connection with the operation of the Building.
9.4 Except for Cosmetic Alterations, prior to starting any Alterations, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord for Landlord’s prior written approval (a) plans and specifications, (b) names of contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord (provided that, as described above, Landlord may designate specific contractors with respect to Base Building), (c) required permits and approvals, (d) evidence of contractors and subcontractors insurance in amounts reasonably required by Landlord and naming Landlord as an additional insured, and (e) any security for performance in amounts reasonably required by Landlord.
9.5 Alterations shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner using materials of a quality reasonably approved by Landlord (except for Cosmetic Alterations which shall not require Landlord’s approval), and (a) shall comply with all applicable Laws (including without limitation Title 24 of the California Administrative Code), (b) shall be compatible (as determined in good faith by Landlord) with the Building and the Building Systems; (c) shall not interfere with the use and occupancy of any other portion of the Building by any other tenant or their invitees; (d) shall not be visible from the exterior of the Building or from any Common Areas; (e) shall not affect the integrity of the structural portions of the Building; (f) shall be performed in compliance with the plans and specifications approved by Landlord; and (g) shall not disturb any Hazardous Materials existing on the Premises or in the Building. In addition, Landlord may impose as a condition to its consent to any Alterations such additional requirements as Landlord in its good faith discretion deems necessary or desirable including without limitation: (i) Landlord’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, of the time or times when the Alterations are to be performed; (ii) Landlord’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, of the contractors and subcontractors performing work in connection with the Alterations; (iii) Tenant’s receipt of all necessary permits and approvals from all governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Premises prior to the construction of the Alterations; (iv) Tenant’s written notice of whether the Alterations include the handling, generation, storage, treatment, use, disposal, release, abatement, removal, transportation, or any other activity of any type in connection with or involving Hazardous Materials by Tenant upon, about, above or beneath the Premises or any portion of the Building or the Project; (v) Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of such bonds and insurance as Landlord shall customarily require, and (vi) Tenant’s (and Tenant’s contractor’s) compliance with such construction rules and regulations and building standards as Landlord may, consistent with Institutional Owner Practices, promulgate from time to time. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Landlord or by any third-party on behalf of Landlord in connection with Landlord’s review of any plans and specifications submitted by Tenant for any Alterations. All direct and indirect costs incurred by Landlord relating to any modifications, alterations or improvements of the Project or the Building, whether outside or inside of the Premises, required by any Governmental Authority or by Law as a condition or as the result of any Alteration requested or effected by Tenant shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant, within fifteen (15) days from Landlord’s written demand accompanied by reasonable back-up documentation, and in connection
16.
therewith, Landlord may elect to perform such modifications, alterations or improvements (at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) or require such performance directly by Tenant. In addition, Tenant shall pay Landlord a fee for Landlord’s oversight and coordination of any Alterations (except for Cosmetic Alterations or any initial Alterations by Tenant to prepare the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy) equal to the following percentages of the so-called “hard” cost of the Alterations: three percent (3%) of such costs to the extent such cost is up to, but does not exceed, $100,000.00, two percent (2%) of such costs to the extent such cost exceeds $100,000.00 but does not exceed $500,000.00, and one percent (1%) of such cost to the extent such cost exceed $500,000.00. Upon completion, except for any Cosmetic Alterations, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord completion affidavits and full and final waivers of lien, and certificates of final approval for such Alterations required by any Governmental Authority. All Alterations and the requirements of all carriers of insurance on the Premises and the Building, the Board of Underwriters, Fire Rating Bureau, or similar organization. All work shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and shall be prosecuted to completion in a diligent, first class manner and so as not to (x) obstruct access to the Premises or any portion thereof, (y) obstruct the business of Landlord or other tenants in the Building or (z) interfere with any other tenants or occupants of the Building. Upon completion of any Alterations, Tenant agrees to cause a timely Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of the County of San Francisco in accordance with the provisions of Section 8181 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, and Tenant shall deliver to the Building management office, within thirty (30) days following completion of the Alterations, a reproducible copy of the “as built” drawings of the Alterations together with a CAD file of the “as built” documents of the Alterations (in the then-current version of AutoCad). Tenant shall not use (and upon notice from Landlord shall cease using) contractors, services, workmen, labor, materials or equipment that, in Landlord’s good faith judgment, would disturb labor harmony with the workforce or trades engaging in performing other work, labor or services in or about the Project or the Common Areas. For purposes of Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges, that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp).
9.6 Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to respond to any request by Tenant for Landlord’s consent to Alterations within twenty (20) Business Days, which request by Tenant must be accompanied by plans and specifications in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04. If Landlord fails to respond to Tenant’s request for approval to proposed Alterations within twenty (20) Business Days after Landlord’s receipt of such plans (and within twenty (20) Business Days following any resubmissions thereof following Landlord’s initial review), and if Tenant, within seven (7) Business Days thereafter, provides Landlord with written notice which again requests Landlord’s approval and which shall set forth in bold type at the top of such notice: “If Landlord shall fail to respond to this notice within seven (7) Business Days after receipt, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Alterations which are the subject of this request,” and if Landlord fails to respond within such seven (7) Business Day period, then Landlord’s failure to respond to the proposed Alterations shall be deemed to be an approval by Landlord of the proposed Alterations. Landlord’s approval (or deemed approval) of an Alteration shall not be deemed a
17.
representation by Landlord that the Alteration complies with Law. Any changes to Tenant’s plans and specifications for an Alteration must also be submitted to Landlord for its approval.
10. Landlord’s Access.
10.1 Landlord may enter the Premises at all reasonable times, upon one (1) day’s prior notice to Tenant (except in the case in an emergency, in which case, no notice shall be required) to: inspect the same; exhibit the same to prospective purchasers, lenders or (during the last twelve (12) months of the Term) tenants; determine whether Tenant is complying with all of its obligations under this Lease; supply services to be provided by Landlord to Tenant under this Lease; post notices of non-responsibility; and make repairs or improvements in or to the Building or the Premises; provided, however, that all such work shall be done as promptly as reasonably possible and so as to cause as little interference to Tenant as reasonably possible (provided further, however, that Landlord shall have no obligation to employ contractors or labor at overtime or other premium pay rates or to incur any other overtime costs or additional expenses whatsoever unless Tenant agrees to bear any increased cost to Landlord associated with the performance of such work on such basis). Tenant shall have the right to require that Landlord be accompanied by a representative of Tenant during any such entry provided that such a representative is available following Landlord’s one (1) day’s advance written request for entry, and Landlord shall have the right to enter without a representative of Tenant if Tenant fails to make such a representative available; the foregoing provisions will not apply in the event of emergency. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the performance of any such work of repairs or alterations shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises for Tenant’s business purposes. To the extent that Landlord installs, maintains, uses, repairs or replaces pipes, cables, ductwork, conduits, utility lines, and/or wires through hung ceiling space, exterior perimeter walls and column space, adjacent to and in demising partitions and columns, in or beneath the floor slab or above, below, or through the Premises, then after making any such installation or repair: (x) Landlord will not have reduced Tenant’s usable space, except to a de minimus extent, if the same are not installed behind existing walls or ceilings; (y) Landlord shall box in any of the same installed adjacent to existing walls with construction materials substantially similar to those existing in the affected area(s) of the Premises; and (z) Landlord shall repair all damage caused by the same and restore such area(s) of the Premises to the condition existing immediately prior to such work. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises or any other loss occasioned by such entry; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to waive any liability of Landlord for personal injury and/or property damage resulting from Landlord’s (or Landlord’s employees’, agents’; or contractors’) gross negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, on or about the Premises (excluding Tenant’s Secured Areas), and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means by which Landlord may, in good faith, deem proper to open such doors to obtain entry to the Premises, and any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any such means, or otherwise, shall not under any circumstances be deemed or construed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into or a detainer of
18.
the Premises or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from any part of the Premises. Such entry by Landlord shall not act as a termination of Tenant’s duties under this Lease. If in an emergency Landlord shall be required to obtain entry by means other than a key provided by Tenant, the cost of such entry shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent.
10.2 Landlord has the right at any time to (a) change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known, or (b) alter the Building to change the arrangement or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets, or other public parts of the Building and/or Property without any such acts constituting an actual or constructive eviction and without incurring any liability to Tenant, so long as such changes do not deny Tenant reasonable access to or use of the Premises. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to erect and maintain sidewalk bridges and/or scaffolding on or about the Premises and/or the Building. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises during the making of such changes or alterations, provided that Landlord shall have no obligation to employ contractors or labor at overtime or other premium pay rates or to incur any other overtime costs or additional expenses whatsoever.
10.3 Tenant may, by written notice to Landlord, designate portions of the Premises “Secured Areas” should Tenant require such areas for the purpose of securing certain valuable property or confidential information. Landlord and Landlord’s agents may not enter such Secured Areas, except (a) in the event of an emergency or (b), to perform an inspection, or perform any of Landlord’s duties or work required hereunder, in which case Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable notice of the specific date and time of entry (except in the case of an emergency).
11. Tenant Parking.
Tenant shall be entitled to lease, and Landlord hereby covenants to provide if Tenant so elects, up to ten (10) unreserved parking passes, which parking passes shall pertain to the Building Parking Facilities at the then-current Building standard rate. The current Building standard rate as of the Effective Date is $230.00 per month per parking pass. Tenant shall also have non-exclusive access to unreserved bicycle parking spaces located in the Building Parking Facilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall additionally be responsible for the full amount of any taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority in connection with the renting (or use) of such parking passes by Tenant or the use of the Building Parking Facilities by Tenant. Tenant’s continued right to use such parking passes is conditioned upon (a) Tenant and each Tenant Parking User abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the Parking Facilities, including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord, (b) Tenant’s use of commercially reasonable efforts to cause Tenant’s Parking Users to comply with such rules and regulations and (c) Tenant not being in Default under this Lease. Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the Building Parking Facilities at any time (provided that Tenant shall retain its parking allocation as described above) and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any
19.
liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease, from time to time, temporarily close-off or restrict access to the Building Parking Facilities for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord. The parking passes, if any, provided to Tenant pursuant to this Article 1 1 are provided to Tenant solely for use by Tenant’s own personnel, employees, agents and contractors (collectively, “Tenant’s Parking Users”), and such passes may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord’s prior approval (other than pursuant to a sublease of the Premises or assignment of this Lease effected in accordance with the provisions of Article 12). Tenant acknowledges and agrees that all use of the Building Parking Facilities will be at Tenant and the Tenant Parking Users’ sole risk and Landlord shall have no liability under any circumstances for any theft or damage to vehicles or bicycles parked in the Building Parking Facilities.
12. Assignment and Subletting.
12.1 Restriction. Subject to the provisions of this Article 12, without the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall not, either involuntarily or voluntarily or by operation of law or otherwise, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or permit any lien to attach to, or transfer this Lease or any interest herein, or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant or Tenant’s employees (each a “Transfer” and any person or entity to whom a Transfer is made or sought to be made is referred to herein as a “Transferee”). Any Transfer in violation of the provisions of this Article 12 shall be null and void and, at Landlord’s option, shall constitute a Default. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Transfer” shall also include (i) if a Tenant is a partnership or limited liability company, the withdrawal or change, voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the partners, members or managers thereof, or a transfer of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of partnership or membership interests therein within a twelve (12) month period, or the dissolution of the partnership or the limited liability company without immediate reconstitution thereof, and (ii) if Tenant is a corporation whose stock is not publicly held and not traded through an exchange or over the counter (A) the dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant, the sale or other transfer of more than an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) of the voting shares or other interests of or in Tenant (other than to immediate family members by reason of gift or death), within a twelve (12) month period, or (B) the sale, mortgage, hypothecation or pledge of more than an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) of the value of the unencumbered assets of Tenant within a twelve (12) month period. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 12 to the contrary, Tenant expressly covenants and agrees not to enter into any lease, sublease, license, concession or other agreement (or other Transfer) for use, occupancy or utilization of the Premises which provides for rental or other payment for such use, occupancy or utilization based in whole or in part on the net income or profits derived by any person from the property leased, used, occupied or utilized (other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales), and that any such purported lease, sublease, license, concession or other agreement (or other Transfer) shall be absolutely void. As used herein
20.
“Control” means, with respect to any party, the direct or indirect power to direct the ordinary management and policies of such party, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. In addition, the initial public offering of Tenant’s stock over the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or NASDAQ, or a transfer of less than 50% of Tenant’s stock within a twelve (12) month period by virtue of a private placement with a venture capital firm wherein such venture capital firm receives stock in Tenant, will not be deemed a Transfer requiring Landlord’s consent.
12.2 Notice to Landlord. if Tenant desires to Transfer this Lease or any interest herein, then at least twenty (20) business days (but no more than one hundred eighty (180) days) prior to the proposed effective date of the proposed Transfer, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written request (a “Transfer Notice”) for Landlord’s consent, which notice shall include:
A. A statement containing: (a) the name and address of the proposed Transferee; (b) current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer, partner or owner thereof, and any other information and materials (including, without limitation, credit reports, business plans, operating history, bank and character references) required by Landlord (by notice delivered to Tenant within fifteen (15) business days following delivery of the foregoing financial information) to assist Landlord in reviewing the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of the proposed Transferee; (c) the nature of such Transferee’s business and proposed use of the Premises; (d) the proposed effective date of the proposed Transfer; (e) a description of the portion of the Premises subject to the proposed Transfer (the “Subject Space”); (f) all of the principal terms of the proposed Transfer (including a calculation of the Transfer Profits); and (g) such other information and materials as Landlord may in good faith (by notice delivered to Tenant within fifteen (15) business days of Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of the initial financial materials described in clause (b) above, and the other materials described in clauses (a), (c), (d), (e) and (f)) request (provided, that if Landlord requests such additional information or materials, the Transfer Notice shall not be deemed to have been received until Landlord receives such additional materials).
B. Four (4) originals of the proposed assignment or sublease or other Transfer on a form approved by Landlord and four (4) originals of the Landlord’s standard form of “Consent to Sublease” or “Assignment and Assumption of Lease and Consent” executed by Tenant and the proposed Transferee.

If Landlord fails to timely deliver to Tenant notice of Landlord’s consent, or the withholding of consent, to a proposed Transfer, Tenant may send a second (2nd) notice to Landlord, which notice must contain the following inscription, in bold faced
21.
lettering: “SECOND NOTICE DELIVERED PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 12 OF LEASE - - FAILURE TO TIMELY RESPOND WITHIN SEVEN (7) BUSINESS DAYS SHALL RESULT IN DEEMED APPROVAL OF ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE.” If Landlord fails to deliver notice of Landlord’s consent to, or the withholding of Landlord’s consent, to the proposed assignment or sublease within such seven (7) business day period, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Transfer in question.
12.3 Landlord’s Recapture Right. At any time within twenty (20) business days after Landlord’s receipt of all (but not less than all) of the information and documents described in Section 12.02 (except in the event of a Business Transfer) Landlord may, at its option, in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, by written notice to Tenant, elect to terminate this Lease (“Recapture”) as to the portion of the Premises subject to the proposed Transfer, with a proportionate adjustment in the Rent payable hereunder if this Lease is terminated as to less than all of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not have the right to Recapture until Tenant, by means of one or more Transfers (including a Business Transfer), has proposed to sublease or Transfer 20% in the aggregate of the Rentable Square Footage of the Premises.
12.4 Landlord’s Consent; Standards.
A. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.03, Landlord’s consent to any proposed Transfer shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that in addition to any other grounds available hereunder or under applicable Law for properly withholding consent to such proposed Transfer, Landlord’s consent with respect thereto shall be deemed reasonably withheld if in Landlord’s good faith judgment: (a) the proposed Transferee does not have the financial strength (taking into account all of the proposed Transferee’s other actual or potential obligations and liabilities) to perform its obligations with respect to the proposed Transfer (or otherwise does not satisfy Landlord’s standards for financial standing with respect to tenants under direct leases of comparable economic scope); (b) the business and operations of the proposed Transferee are not of comparable quality to the business and operations being conducted by direct tenants of Landlord in the Project; (c) the proposed Transferee intends to use any part of the Subject Space for a purpose not permitted under this Lease; (d) either the proposed Transferee, or any person which directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee leases or occupies space in the Project or has negotiated with Landlord within the preceding one hundred eighty (180) days (or is currently negotiating with Landlord) to lease space in the Project, and Landlord anticipates having available space in the Project to accommodate such proposed Transferee’s occupancy needs; (e) the proposed Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Project; (f) the use of the Premises or the Project by the proposed Transferee would, in Landlord’s judgment, significantly increase the pedestrian traffic in and out of the Project, would generate increased loitering in Common Areas, would increase security risk, or would require any alterations to the Building or the Project to comply with applicable Laws; (g) the proposed Transfer would result in more than three subleases per each full floor of the Premises being in effect at any one time during the Term; (h) any ground lessor or mortgagee whose consent to such Transfer is required fails to consent thereto; (i) at the time Tenant
22.
delivers the Transfer Notice, there is then in effect an uncured Default by Tenant under the Lease; (j) the terms of the proposed Transfer will allow the proposed Transferee to exercise a right of renewal, right of expansion, right of first offer, or other similar rights held by Tenant (or will allow the proposed Transferee to occupy space leased by Tenant pursuant to any such right); (k) the proposed Transfer would cause Landlord to be in violation of another lease for space in the Building or the Project or agreement to which Landlord is a party, or would give an occupant of the Building or the Project a right to cancel or modify its lease; (l) [OMITTED]; (m) the Transfer occurs during the period from the Commencement Date until the date that at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable square feet in the Project is leased, and the rent charged by Tenant to such Transferee during the term of such Transfer, calculated using a present value analysis, is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rent being quoted by Landlord at the time of such Transfer for comparable space in the Project for a comparable term, calculated using a present value analysis or (n) the proposed Transferee has the power of eminent domain, is a governmental agency or an agency or subdivision of a foreign government.
B. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent or otherwise acted in a manner not permitted under this Article 12, then the sole remedy of Tenant and such proposed Transferee if such claim is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be successful shall be a declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought together with (a) a recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs pursuant to Section 33.06 and (b) any direct monetary damages or other monetary relief (but not, in any event, any form of consequential or incidental damages). Tenant and each proposed Transferee hereby waive to the maximum extent permitted by Law any and all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or in equity to terminate this Lease with respect to any such claim. Tenant shall indemnify, defend. protect and hold harmless Landlord from any and all Claims, Damages and Costs involving or asserted by any third party or parties (including, without limitation, Tenant’s proposed Transferee and any broker representing Tenant and/or such proposed Transferee) claiming they were damaged by Landlord’s wrongful withholding or delaying of Landlord’s consent to such proposed Transfer or other breach of this Article 12. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant’s rights under this Article 12 satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 1951.4 of the California Civil Code with respect to the availability to Landlord of certain remedies for a default by Tenant under this Lease.
12.5 Transfer Profits. Subject to the provisions of this Article 12, if Landlord consents to any Transfer, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any Transfer Profits. “Transfer Profits” means all rent, additional rent or other consideration paid to Tenant by or on behalf of such Transferee in connection with the Transfer in excess of the monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer (on a per square foot of Rentable Square Footage in the Premises basis if less than all of the Premises is transferred (unless all or a portion of the Subject Space is subject to different Rent and Additional Rent terms, in which case, to the extent applicable, such different terms shall be applicable)), after deducting the reasonable expenses incurred by Tenant for (i) any changes, alterations and improvements to the Premises in
23.
connection with the Transfer, (ii) any free base rent or other economic concessions reasonably provided to the Transferee, (iii) any brokerage commissions in connection with the Transfer, (iv) any attorneys’ fees incurred by Tenant in connection with the Transfer, (v) any lease takeover costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the Transfer, (vi) any costs of advertising the space which is the subject of the Transfer, and (vii) any review and processing fees paid to Landlord in connection with such Transfer (collectively, the “Transfer Costs”). “Transfer Profits” shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for tangible assets (as opposed to Intellectual property), fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such Transfer. In the calculations of the Rent (as it relates to the Transfer Profits calculated under this Section 12.05), the Rent paid during each annual period for the Subject Space, shall be computed after adjusting such rent to the actual effective rent to be paid, taking into consideration any and all leasehold concessions granted in connection therewith, including, but no limited to, any rent credit and tenant improvement allowance. For purposes of calculating any such effective rent all such concessions shall be amortized on a straight-line basis over the relevant term. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a detailed statement setting forth the calculation of any Transfer Profits Tenant either has or will derive from such Transfer. In addition, Landlord or its representative shall have the right at all reasonable times to audit the books and records of Tenant with respect to the calculation of the Transfer profits. If such inspection reveals that the amount of Transfer Profits paid to Landlord was incorrect, then within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of the results of such audit, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency and the cost of Landlord’s audit.
12.6 Landlord’s Costs. With respect to each Transfer proposed to be consummated by Tenant, whether or not Landlord shall grant consent, Tenant shall pay all of Landlord’s review and processing fees, and costs, as well as any good faith professional, attorneys’, accountants’, engineers’ or other consultants’ fees (collectively, “Review Expenses”) incurred by Landlord relating to such proposed Transfer within thirty (30) days after written request to do so by Landlord.
12.7 Continuing Liability of Tenant. Notwithstanding the consummation or attempted consummation of any Transfer (including any Business Transfer) under this Article 12, Tenant shall remain as fully and primarily liable for the payment of Rent and for the performance of all other obligations of tenant contained in this Lease to the same extent as if the Transfer had not occurred; provided, however, that any act or omission of any Transferee, other than Landlord, that violates the provisions of this Lease shall be deemed a violation of this Lease by Tenant. If any Transferee defaults beyond applicable cure and grace periods in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting its remedies against such Transferee. Landlord may consent to subsequent Transfers of this Lease with Transferees of Tenant, upon notice to Tenant, but without obtaining its or their consent thereto, and such action shall not relieve Tenant of its liability under this Lease.
12.8 Non-Waiver. The consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall not relieve Tenant, or any person claiming through or by Tenant, of the obligation to obtain the consent of Landlord,
24.
pursuant to this Article 12, to any further Transfer. In the event of a Transfer, Landlord may collect rent from the Transferee without waiving any rights hereunder and collection of the rent from a person other than Tenant shall not be deemed a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights under this Article 12, an acceptance of Transferee as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
12.9 Business Transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 12, Tenant may (a) assign Tenant’s interest in this Lease to a successor to Tenant by merger, consolidation or the purchase of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or equity of Tenant, or (b) sublet all or a portion of the Premises to an Affiliate, without the consent of Landlord, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied (each a “Business Transfer”): (i) Tenant must not be in Default; (ii) Tenant must give Landlord written notice at least fifteen (15) Business Days before such Business Transfer (iii) in the case of a transaction described in clause (a) above; the Credit Requirement must be satisfied; and (iv) such Business Transfer was made for a Legitimate independent business purpose and not for the purpose of transferring this Lease. Tenant’s notice to Landlord shall include information and documentation evidencing the Business Transfer and showing that each of the above conditions has been satisfied. If requested by Landlord, Tenant’s successor shall sign a commercially reasonable form of assumption agreement. “Affiliate” shall mean an entity Controlled by, Controlling or under common Control with Tenant. The “Credit Requirement” shall be deemed satisfied if, as of the date immediately preceding the date of the Transfer, the net worth (as determined in accordance with GAAP) of the transferee is not less than the net worth of Tenant as of the date of this Lease or the date of such Transfer, whichever is greater.
13. Liens.
Tenant shall pay when due all costs for work performed in and materials supplied to, the Premises. Tenant shall keep Landlord, the Premises and the Building free from all liens, claims of liens, stop notices and violation notices (and other encumbrances) relating to the Alterations or any other work performed for, materials furnished to, or obligations incurred by, Tenant and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord, each Landlord Party, the Premises and the Building from and against any and all Claims, Damages and Costs arising out of or related to any such liens, claims of lien or notices (or other encumbrances). Tenant shall give Landlord not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice before commencing any Alterations in or about the Premises to permit Landlord to post appropriate notices of non-responsibility. During the progress of such work, Tenant shall, upon Landlord’s request, furnish Landlord with sworn contractor’s statements and lien waivers covering all work theretofore performed. Tenant shall satisfy in full or otherwise discharge or bond over all liens, stop notices or other claims or encumbrances affecting the Premises or the Building within ten (10) business days after Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that any such lien, stop notice, claim or encumbrance has been filed. If Tenant fails to pay and remove or bond over such lien, claim or encumbrance within such ten (10) business day period, Landlord, at its election, may pay and satisfy the same and in such event the sums so paid by Landlord, with interest from the date of payment at the Default Rate, shall be
25.
deemed to be Additional Rent due and payable by Tenant within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s written demand.
14. Indemnity and Waiver of Claims.
14.1 Except to the extent expressly provided to the contrary herein, Tenant hereby waives all claims and causes of action against Landlord, its members, managers, partners, advisors, Affiliates, mortgagees and ground lessors and each of their respective officers, managers, members directors, employees, contractors, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord Parties”) for any damage to persons or property (including, without limitation, loss of profits and intangible property) in any way relating to Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, contractors or employees. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Landlord and each of the Landlord Parties, from and against any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, losses, damages, obligations, liabilities, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs on appeal costs) (collectively, “Claims, Damages and Costs”) which arise out of, are occasioned by or which are in any way attributable to or related to (a) any cause in or on the Premises during the Term, any construction period or any holdover period (to the extent covered by Tenant’s insurance policies required pursuant to the provisions of Section 15.01 or otherwise covered under any customary CGL Insurance policy), (b) any negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct of Tenant or any person claiming by, through or under Tenant, its partners, and the respective officers agents, servants or employees of Tenant or any such person (collectively, “Tenant Parties”), in or on or about the Premises, the Common Areas, the Building or the Project, during the Term, any construction period or any holdover period, or any other period of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises; provided, however, that, except as set forth below, the terms of the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the extent such Claims, Damages and Costs arise from the grossly negligent acts or willful misconduct of the Landlord Parties in connection with the Landlord Parties’ activities in, on or about the Project, including the Premises. Notwithstanding and in addition to the foregoing, because Tenant must carry insurance pursuant to Section 15.01, to cover its Tenant’s Personal Property and all office furniture, trade fixtures, office equipment and merchandise within the Premises and the Leasehold Improvements and Alterations within the Premises, Tenant hereby agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord and the Landlord Parties harmless from any Claims, Damages and Costs with respect to any such property within the Premises, to the extent such Claims, Damages and Costs are covered by the type of insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to Section 15.01, even if resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or the Landlord Parties.
14.2 The provisions of this Article 14 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease with respect to any claims or liability arising in connection with any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Article 14 or in Article 15, below, nothing contained in this Article 14 shall be interpreted or
26.
used to in any way affect, limit, reduce or abrogate any insurance coverage provided by any insurer to either Tenant or Landlord.
15. Insurance.
15.1 Tenant’s Insurance. Commencing as of the Delivery Date (or any prior date on which Tenant or Tenant’s Contractors, agents or vendors have access to the Premises), Tenant shall maintain the following insurance (“Tenant’s Insurance”): (a) Commercial General Liability Insurance (“CGL Insurance”) applicable to the use and occupancy of the Premises providing, on an occurrence basis, a minimum combined single limit of $2,000,000.00 per occurrence and $5,000,000.00 in the aggregate (such limits may be achieved by a combination of primary and umbrella coverages); (b) Property/Business Interruption Insurance written on an All Risk or Special Cause of Loss Form, including sprinkler leakage, at replacement cost value and with a replacement cost endorsement covering all of Tenant’s business and trade fixtures, equipment, movable partitions, furniture, merchandise and other personal property within the Premises (“Tenant’s Property”) and any Leasehold Improvements performed by or for the benefit of Tenant; (c) Workers’ Compensation Insurance in amounts required by Law; and (d) Employers Liability Coverage of at least $1,000,000.00 per occurrence. Any company writing Tenant’s Insurance shall be authorized to do business in California and have an A.M. Best rating of not less than A-VII. All Commercial General Liability Insurance policies shall be written to apply to all bodily injury (including death), property damage and personal injury losses, shall include blanket contractual liability, broad form property damage, independent contractor’s coverage, completed operations, products liability, cross liability and severance of interest clauses, and shall designate as additional insureds (collectively, the “Landlord Additional Insureds”) Landlord (or its successors and assignees), the managing agent for the Building (or any successor) and their respective members, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, employees, and agents, and other designees of Landlord and its successors as the interest of such designees shall appear and shall be primary and noncontributory to any insurance which may be carried by Landlord. In addition, Landlord (and at Landlord’s option any Holder of a Security Document) shall be named as a loss payee with respect to Property Insurance on the Leasehold Improvements. All policies of Tenant’s Insurance shall contain endorsements that the insurer(s) shall give Landlord at least 30 days’ advance written notice of any cancellation, termination, material change or lapse of insurance. However, Landlord acknowledges that, as of the Effective Date, many insurers are unwilling to provide third parties (such as Landlord) notice of cancellation, termination, material change and/or lapse of coverage; Tenant will use good faith efforts to obtain such a commitment from its insurers but if Tenant is unable to obtain such commitment from any of its insurers, Landlord agrees that Tenant’s obligations pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall instead be to (i) promptly provide Landlord with notice of Tenant’s receipt of any such notice of cancellation, termination, material change or lapse from Tenant’s insurer, and (ii) provide Landlord with certificates of insurance evidencing replacement policies of insurance not less than ten (10) business days prior to any cancellation, termination, material change or lapse of insurance. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a certificate of insurance evidencing Tenant’s Insurance prior to the earlier to occur of the Commencement Date
27.
or the date Tenant is provided with possession of the Premises, and thereafter as necessary to assure that Landlord always has current certificates evidencing Tenant’s Insurance and the Additional Insured Endorsement CG 20 11 11 85 or its equivalent is required to be provided as soon as it is available. Tenant shall have the right to provide the insurance required by this Article 15 pursuant to blanket policies, but only if such blanket policies expressly provide coverage to the Premises and the Landlord as required by this Lease without regard to claims made under such policies with respect to other persons.
15.2 Insurance Requirements. In the event Tenant fails to provide any insurance required to be provided by it under this Article 15, and such failure shall continue for three (3) days after notice to Tenant of such failure, Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to procure and maintain such insurance which Tenant has so failed to provide, and the cost thereof shall be deemed Additional Rent due and payable by Tenant hereunder. Tenant may not self-insure against any risks required to be covered by insurance provided by Tenant hereunder. Landlord makes no representation that the insurance coverage specified to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Article 15 is adequate to protect Tenant against Tenant’s undertaking under the provisions of this Lease or otherwise, and in the event Tenant believes that any such insurance coverage called for under this Lease is insufficient, Tenant shall provide, at its own expense, such additional insurance as Tenant deems adequate. Tenant shall not keep, use, sell or offer for sale in or upon the Premises any article which may be prohibited by any insurance policy periodically in force covering the Premises, the Building or the Project. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done any act or things upon or about the Premises, the Building or the Project, which will (a) result in the assertion of any defense by the insurer to any claim under, (b) invalidate, or (c) be in conflict with, the insurance policies of Landlord or Tenant covering the Project, the Building or the Premises or fixtures and property therein, or which would increase the rate of fire insurance applicable to the Building or the Project to an amount higher than it otherwise would be (unless Tenant agrees in writing to pay the increased cost thereof); and Tenant shall neither do nor permit to be done any act or thing upon or about the Premises or the Building or the Project which shall or might subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for injury to any person or persons or to property. If, as a result of any act or omission by or on the part of Tenant or violation of this Lease, whether or not Landlord has consented to the same, the rate of “All Risk” or other type of insurance maintained by Landlord on or with respect to the Building and fixtures and property therein, shall be increased to an amount higher than it otherwise would be, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all increases of Landlord’s insurance premiums so caused within fifteen (15) days after delivery of written demand therefor by Landlord. Tenant shall carry and maintain during the entire Term, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, such increased amounts of the insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Article 15 and such other types of insurance coverage and in such amounts covering the Premises and Tenant’s operations therein, as may be non-discriminatorily requested by Landlord in a manner consistent with Institutional Owner Practices; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be permitted to increase the scope or amount of insurance to be carried by Tenant hereunder more than once during any three (3) year period and any new requirements imposed by Landlord shall (i) be required by Landlord’s first priority lender (provided that the same is consistent with Institutional Owner
28.
Practices) or (ii) be consistent with respect to the insurance required of comparably sized tenants under Institutional Owner Practices.
15.3 Landlord’s Insurance. At all times during the term of this Lease, Landlord will carry and maintain “All Risk” property insurance covering the Building and its equipment. Landlord shall also carry commercial general liability insurance with respect to the Project. Such coverage shall be in such amounts, from such companies, and on such other terms and conditions, as Landlord may from time to time determine in good faith, and in any case shall be consistent with Institutional Owner Practices (which shall include rental interruption insurance in commercially reasonable amounts, the costs of which may be included in the calculation of Operating Expenses). Additionally, at the option of Landlord, such insurance coverage may include the risks of earthquakes and/or flood damage and additional hazards, a rental loss endorsement and one or more loss payee endorsements in favor of the holders of any mortgages or deeds of trust encumbering the interest of Landlord in the Project. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in no event shall Landlord be required to carry earthquake insurance, flood insurance, or terrorism insurance.
15.4 Waiver of Consequential Damages. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Lease, at no time and under no circumstances shall either Landlord or Tenant be responsible or liable to the other for any lost profits, lost economic opportunities or any other form of consequential or punitive damages (collectively, “Consequential Damages”) as the result of any actual or alleged breach by either Landlord or Tenant of its obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that notwithstanding the above, this Section 15.04 shall not limit or otherwise affect (a) either party’s liability with respect to claims of fraud, willful misconduct, or bad faith; (b) Tenant’s liability for consequential damages resulting from a holdover of the Premises by Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease; or (c) Tenant’s liability for consequential damages for Tenant’s violation of (or breaches with respect to) Tenant’s obligations under Article 5 and Section 9.07.
16. Subrogation.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and shall cause their respective property insurance carriers to waive any and all rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of action against the other for any loss or damage with respect to Tenant’s Property, Leasehold Improvements, the Building, the Premises, or any contents thereof, including rights, claims, actions and causes of action based on negligence, which loss or damage is (or would have been, had the insurance required by this Lease been carried) covered by insurance. For the purposes of this waiver, any deductible with respect to a party’s insurance shall be deemed covered by and recoverable by such party under valid and collectable policies of insurance.
17. Casualty Damage.
17.1 Repair of the Premises. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing (a “Damage Notice”) of any casualty event, damage or condition to which this Article 17 is or may be applicable
29.
(“Casualty”) promptly following the date Tenant becomes aware of the same. Landlord shall, within a reasonable time after the discovery by Landlord of any damage to the Project resulting from any Casualty event, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article 17, begin to repair and restore (collectively, “Restore” and “Restoration”) the damage to the Project and the Premises resulting from such Casualty and shall proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Project and Premises to substantially the same condition as existed immediately before such Casualty, except for modifications required by applicable Laws or covenants, conditions and restrictions, and modifications to the Building or the Project deemed desirable in good faith by Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any of the Leasehold Improvements, Alterations, furniture, equipment, fixtures, and other improvements which may have been placed by, or at the request of, Tenant or other occupants in the Building, or the Premises. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense promptly and diligently restore the Leasehold Improvements in the Premises. The Leasehold Improvements as so restored shall not be required to have the same value or configuration as the earlier Leasehold Improvements, provided that upon completion of such restoration of the Leasehold Improvements, such Leasehold Improvements shall have a layout, quality and level of finish and improvement consistent with a the tenant improvements of new tenants in a first class office project. Such restoration of the Leasehold Improvements by Tenant shall be subject to, and comply with the requirements of Article 9. Landlord shall have no liability for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to Tenant’s business as a result of any Casualty, or Landlord’s Restoration activities hereunder, regardless of the cause therefor. Base Rent, and Additional Rent payable under Section 4.04, shall xxxxx if and to the extent a Casualty damages the Premises or the Common Areas or the Building Systems in the Project required and essential for access or services thereto for the purposes required hereunder and as a result thereof all or any material portion of the Premises are rendered unfit for occupancy, and are not occupied by Tenant, for the period of time commencing on the date Tenant vacates the portion of the Premises affected on account thereof and continuing until the date the Restoration to be performed by Landlord hereunder with respect to the Premises (and/or required Common Areas) is substantially complete, as determined by Landlord’s architect and Tenant has been given sufficient time to rebuild such portion of its Leasehold Improvements it is required to rebuild and to install its property, furniture, and fixtures to the extent the same have been damaged or removed as a result of the Casualty in question; provided, however, that such abatement shall be limited to the proceeds of rental interruption insurance proceeds with respect to the Premises and such Casualty collected by Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained in this Lease, in the event of any termination of this Lease pursuant to this Article 17, Tenant shall assign and deliver to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant’s insurance required under Section 14.01 coverage damage to Tenant’s Leasehold Improvements.
17.2 Exceptions to Landlord’s Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 17, Landlord shall have no obligation to repair the Premises and shall have the right to terminate this Lease in any case where (a) any portion of the Premises or any material portion of the Project is materially damaged and (b) (i) Landlord estimates in good faith that the
30.
Restoration of such damage under Section 17.01 cannot reasonably be completed (without the payment of overtime) within two hundred ten (210) days of Landlord’s actual discovery of such damage, (ii) the Holder of any Security Document requires the application of any insurance proceeds with respect to such Casualty to be applied to the outstanding balance of the obligation secured by such Security Document, (iii) the cost of such Restoration less Landlord’s deductible payment is not fully covered by insurance proceeds available to Landlord and/or payments received by Landlord from tenants, (iv) Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of rent under this Article 17 for any period of time in excess of thirty-three percent (33%) of the remainder of the Term, or (v) such Casualty occurs (or Landlord discovers the damage relating thereto) at any time within the last eighteen (18) months of the then applicable Term (disregarding Extension Terms if any), the Casualty affects the Premises (or any material portion thereof) or access thereto or Landlord’s ability to provide services thereto sufficient to allow the Premises to be operated for the permitted use hereunder and the repair of such damage is anticipated to take in excess of one hundred twenty (120) days. Such right of termination shall be exercisable by Landlord by delivery of written notice to Tenant at any time following the Casualty until ninety (90) days following the delivery of the Damage Notice and shall be effective upon delivery of such notice of termination (or if Tenant has not vacated the Premises, upon the expiration of thirty (30) days thereafter).
17.3 Termination. If the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty and are rendered not reasonably usable for Tenant’s business purposes thereby, or if the Building shall be so damaged that Tenant shall be deprived of reasonable access to the Premises, and if, pursuant to Landlord’s Repair Notice, the restoration will not be substantially completed within nine (9) months following the date of such damage, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written notice (the “Termination Notice”) to Landlord not later than thirty (30) days following receipt of Landlord’s Repair Notice. If Tenant gives a Termination Notice, this Lease shall be deemed cancelled and terminated as of the date of the damage as if such date were the Expiration Date, and Rent shall be apportioned and shall be paid or refunded, as the case may be up to and including the date of such damage or destruction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant was entitled to but elected not to exercise its right to terminate this Lease and Landlord does not substantially complete the repair and restoration of the Premises within three (3) months after the expiration of the estimated period of time set forth in Landlord’s Repair Notice, which period shall be extended to the extent of any delays caused by Tenant, then Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such period, as the same may be so extended.
17.4 Waiver. Landlord and Tenant agree that the provisions of this Article 17 and the remaining provisions of this Lease shall exclusively govern the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Project, and Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and release each and all of their respective common law and statutory rights inconsistent herewith, whether now or hereinafter in effect (including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, as amended from time to time).
18. Condemnation.
31.
In the event the whole or a material portion of the Premises, the Building or the Project shall be permanently taken under the power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or sold to prevent the exercise thereof (collectively, a “Taking”), this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the Taking Date (defined in this Article 18, below). In’ the event of a Taking of such portion of the Project, the Building or the Premises as shall, in the opinion of Landlord, substantially interfere with Landlord’s operation thereof, Landlord may terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Tenant given at any time within sixty (60) days following the date of such Taking with such termination to be effective as of the Taking Date. For purposes of this Lease, the “Taking Date” shall be the earlier of (a) the date of transfer of title resulting from such Taking or (b) the date of transfer of possession resulting from such Taking.
In the event that a portion of the Premises is so taken and this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall, with reasonable diligence, proceed to restore (to the extent permitted by Law and covenants, conditions and restrictions then applicable to the Project) the Premises (other than Tenant’s Personal Property and Leasehold Improvements not in compliance with the Specifications) to a complete, functioning unit, to the extent of the condemnation award specifically allocable to such Restoration received by Landlord. In such case, the Annual Base Rent shall be reduced proportionately based on the portion of the Premises so taken.
Subject to the provisions hereof, in the event of any Taking, the entire award for such Taking shall belong to Landlord, except that Tenant shall be entitled to independently pursue any separate award awardable to Tenant relating to (i) the loss of, or damage to, Tenant’s Personal Property and (ii) Tenant’s relocation costs directly associated with the Taking. Except as provided herein, Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for, and hereby assigns to Landlord, any and all compensation in connection with any such Taking, and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award therefor, without deduction for any claim, estate or interest of Tenant.
No temporary Taking of the Premises shall terminate this Lease or entitle Tenant to any abatement of the Rent payable to Landlord under this Lease; provided, further, that any award for such temporary taking shall belong to Tenant to the extent that the award applies to any time period during the Term of this Lease and to Landlord to the extent that the award applies to any time period outside the Term.
This Article 18 shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a Taking. Each party hereby waives the provisions of Sections 1265.130 and 1265.150 of the California Code of Civil Procedure and the provisions of any successor or other law of like import.
19. Defaults.
19.1 Default by Tenant. In addition to any other default specifically described in this Lease, each of the following occurrences shall be a “Default”: (a) Tenant’s failure to pay any portion
32.
of Rent when due, if the failure continues for five (5) days after written notice of Default to Tenant (“Monetary Default”); (b) Tenant’s failure (other than a Monetary Default) to comply with any term, provision, condition or covenant of this Lease, if the failure is not cured within 20 days after written notice to Tenant provided, however, if Tenant’s failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within twenty (20) days, Tenant shall be allowed additional time (not to exceed sixty (60) days) as is reasonably necessary to cure the failure so long as Tenant begins the cure within twenty (20) days and thereafter diligently pursues the cure to completion; (c) a Tenant Insolvency Event occurs; (d) Tenant’s interest in this Lease shall be Transferred to any third party, whether by operation of Law or otherwise, except as expressly permitted under Article 11, the leasehold estate is taken by process or operation of Law; (d) Tenant does not take possession of or abandons or vacates all or any portion of the Premises; (f) Tenant is in default beyond any notice and cure period under any other lease or agreement with Landlord at the Building or Property, (g) if Landlord applies or retains any portion of the Security Deposit, and Tenant fails to deposit with Landlord the amount so applied or retained by Landlord, or to provide Landlord with a replacement Letter of Credit, if applicable, within five (5) Business Days after notice by Landlord to Tenant stating the amount applied or retained, (h) a Letter of Credit Default, or (i) if Landlord provides Tenant with notice of Tenant’s failure to comply with the same provision of this Lease on two (2) separate occasions during any twelve (12) month period, Tenant’s subsequent violation of such provision shall, at Landlord’s option, be an incurable Default by Tenant. All notices sent under this Section 19.01 shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under Section 1161 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any other law now or hereafter in effect requiring that notice of default be given prior to the commencement of any unlawful detainer or other legal proceeding.
19.2 Default by Landlord. Landlord’s failure to perform or observe any of its obligations under this Lease shall constitute a default by Landlord under this Lease (a “Landlord Default”) only if such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days (or the additional time, if any, that shall be reasonably necessary to cure the failure in question) after Landlord receives written notice from Tenant specifying the default, which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the nature and extent of the failure and shall identify the Lease provision(s) containing the obligation(s) in question; provided, however, if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its performance, then no Landlord Default shall be deemed to occur if Landlord shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion. Subject to the remaining provisions of this Lease, following the occurrence of any such Landlord Default, Tenant shall have the right to pursue any remedy available under Law for such Landlord Default; provided, however, that in no case shall Tenant have any right to terminate this Lease on account of any such Landlord Default.
20. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of a Tenant Default, Landlord shall have the right to pursue any one or more of the following remedies:
20.1 Landlord’s Right To Terminate Upon Tenant Default. Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease and recover possession of the Premises by giving written notice to Tenant of Landlord’s election to terminate this Lease, in which event Landlord shall be entitled to
33.
receive from Tenant: (i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss 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 amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (v) at Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in this Section 20.01, “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the then highest lawful contract rate of interest. As used in Section 20.01(i i) above, “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting such amount at the Discounting Rate. As used herein, the term “Discounting Rate” means the lesser of (a) the “prime rate” or “reference rate” announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.T. & S.A. (or such reasonable comparable national banking institution as is selected by Landlord in the event Bank of America, N.T. & S.A. ceases to publish a prime rate or reference rate) (the “Reference Rate”), plus one percent (1%), or (b) the maximum rate permitted by Law.
20.2 Landlord’s Right To Continue Lease Upon Tenant Default. In the event of a Default of this Lease and abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 20.01 above, Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the proceeds of any reletting shall be applied first to pay to Landlord all costs and expenses of such reletting (including without limitation, costs and expenses of retaking or repossessing the Premises, removing persons and property therefrom, securing new tenants, including expenses for redecoration, alterations and other costs in connection with preparing the Premises for the new tenant, and if Landlord shall maintain and operate the Premises, the costs thereof) and receivers’ fees incurred in connection with the appointment of and performance by a receiver to protect the Premises and Landlord’s interest under this Lease and any necessary or reasonable alterations; second, to the payment of any indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord other than Rent due and unpaid hereunder; third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of other or future obligations of Tenant to Landlord as the same may become due and payable, and Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any portion of such revenue. No re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section 20.02 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such election shall be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any reletting without
34.
termination by Landlord, Landlord may, at any time after such reletting, elect to terminate this Lease for any such default. Upon the occurrence of a Default by Tenant, if the Premises or any portion thereof are sublet, Landlord, in addition and without prejudice to any other remedies herein provided or provided by Law, may, at its option, collect directly from the sublessee all rentals becoming due to the Tenant and apply such rentals against other sums due hereunder to Landlord.
20.3 Right of Landlord to Perform. All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than Base Rent, required to be paid by it hereunder or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, and such failure shall continue in excess of the notice and cure period allowed under Section 19.01 (except that there shall be no notice and cure period with respect to emergencies, and for purposes of this Section 20.03, such notice and cure period shall be five (5) business days with respect to failures by Tenant to perform Tenant’s obligations with respect to compliance with Laws), then, in addition to and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of Landlord (including, without limitation, any right or remedy provided under Article 9), Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, cure the same at the expense of Tenant (i) immediately and without notice in the case (a) of emergency, (b) where such default unreasonably interferes with any other tenant in the Project, or (c) where such default will result in the violation of Law or the cancellation of any insurance policy maintained by Landlord and (ii) in any other case if such default continues for ten (10) days from the receipt by Tenant of notice of such default from Landlord. Any sums so paid by Landlord and all incidental costs, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of such payment, shall be payable to Landlord as Additional Rent within ten (10) days following demand therefor by Landlord, and Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies in the event of nonpayment as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Rent.
20.4 Late Payments of Rent. Following the occurrence of three instances of payment of Rent more than ten (10) days late in any twelve month period, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to it, upon written notice to Tenant, (1) require that all remaining monthly installments of Base Rent shall be payable three months in advance; and in addition or in the alternative at Landlord’s election, (ii) require that Tenant increase the amount of the Security Deposit (if any) or Letter of Credit by an amount equal to one month’s Base Rent.
20.5 Default Under Other Leases. IF the term of any lease, other than this Lease, heretofore or hereafter made by Tenant for any space in the Building shall be terminated or terminable after the making of this Lease because of any Default by Tenant under such other lease, such fact shall empower Landlord, at Landlord’s sole option, to terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant or to exercise any of the rights or remedies set forth in Section 20.01.
20.6 Subleases of Tenant. Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this Article 20, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord’s sole discretion,
35.
succeed to Tenant’s interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements. In the event of Landlord’s election to succeed to Tenant’s interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.
20.7 Efforts to Relet. For the purposes of this Article 20, Tenant’s right to possession shall not be deemed to have been terminated by efforts of Landlord to relet the Premises, by its acts of maintenance or preservation with respect to the Premises, or by appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord’s interests hereunder. The foregoing enumeration is not exhaustive, but merely illustrative of acts which may be performed by Landlord without terminating Tenant’s right to possession.
20.8 Waiver of Right of Redemption. Tenant hereby waives for Tenant and for all those claiming under Tenant all right now or hereafter existing to redeem by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, Tenant’s right of occupancy of the Premises after any termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, the expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Tenant’s rights to possession of the Premises shall not discharge, relieve or release Tenant from any obligation or liability whatsoever under any indemnity provision of this Lease.
20.9 Non-Waiver. Nothing in this Article 20 shall be deemed to affect Landlord’s or Tenant’s rights to indemnification for liability or liabilities arising prior to termination of this Lease for persona] injury or property damages under the indemnification clause or clauses contained in this Lease. No acceptance by Landlord of a lesser sum than the Rent then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest installment of such rent due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such installment or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease. The delivery of keys to the Premises to any employee of Landlord or to Landlord’s agent or any employee thereof shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery, Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been terminated. No payment of Rent by Tenant after a Landlord default shall be deemed a waiver by Tenant of such Landlord default.
20.10 Cumulative Remedies. The specific remedies to which Landlord may resort under the provisions of this Lease are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to which it may be lawfully entitled in case of any breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any provisions of this Lease. In addition to the other remedies provided in this Lease, subject to applicable Law, Landlord shall be entitled to a restraint by injunction of the violation or attempted or threatened violation of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease or to a decree compelling specific performance of any such covenants, conditions or provisions.
21. Limitation of Liability.
36.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE, OR IN ANY EXHIBITS, RIDERS OR ADDENDA HERETO ATTACHED (COLLECTIVELY THE “LEASE DOCUMENTS”), IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED BY AND BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO THAT: (A) THE RECOURSE OF TENANT OR ITS SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS AGAINST LANDLORD (AND THE LIABILITY OF LANDLORD TO TENANT, ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS) WITH RESPECT TO (I) ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED BREACH OR BREACHES BY OR ON THE PART OF LANDLORD OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, COVENANT, UNDERTAKING OR AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN ANY OF THE LEASE DOCUMENTS AND/OR (II) ANY MATTER RELATING TO TENANT’S OCCUPANCY OF THE PREMISES (COLLECTIVELY, “LANDLORD’S LEASE UNDERTAKINGS”) SHALL BE LIMITED TO SOLELY AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE LESSER OF (X) LANDLORD’S INTEREST IN THE BUILDING AND ALL AVAILABLE INSURANCE PROCEEDS AND (Y) THE EQUITY INTEREST LANDLORD WOULD HAVE IN THE BUILDING IF THE BUILDING WERE ENCUMBERED BY INDEPENDENT SECURED FINANCING EQUAL TO EIGHTY PERCENT (80%) OF THE VALUE OF THE BUILDING AND ALL AVAILABLE INSURANCE PROCEEDS; (B) TENANT SHALL HAVE NO RECOURSE AGAINST ANY OTHER ASSETS OF LANDLORD, ANY LANDLORD PARTY OR ANY OF ITS OR THEIR OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS OR SHAREHOLDERS; AND (C) EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OF LANDLORD’S INTEREST IN THE BUILDING, NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OR PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY OF ANY SORT WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF LANDLORD’S LEASE UNDERTAKINGS OR ANY ALLEGED BREACH THEREOF IS ASSUMED BY, OR SHALL AT ANY TIME BE ASSERTED OR ENFORCEABLE AGAINST, LANDLORD, OR ANY OF THE LANDLORD PARTIES OR AGAINST ANY OF ITS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS OR EMPLOYEES.
22. Transfer of Landlord’s Interest.
Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Project or Building and in this Lease, and Tenant agrees that in the event of any such transfer to a bona fide transferee in good faith who agrees to assume the obligations of Landlord under this Lease to be performed after the date of such transfer, Landlord shall automatically be released from all liability under this Lease not accrued as of the date of the transfer and Tenant agrees to look solely to such transferee for the performance of Landlord’s obligations hereunder after the date of transfer and such transferee shall be deemed to have fully assumed and be liable for all obligations of this Lease to be performed by Landlord thereafter, Tenant shall attorn to such transferee. Any such transfer shall be as to all of Landlord’s rights hereunder.
23. Reserved.
24. Holding Over.
37.
If Tenant holds possession of the Premises after the expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease, by lapse of time or otherwise, with or without the express or implied consent of Landlord, Tenant shall become a tenant at sufferance upon all of the terms contained herein, except as to term and Base Rent and any other provision reasonably determined by Landlord to be inapplicable. For the initial three (3) months of any such holdover period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly Base Rent in an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the last month of the Term of this Lease, plus 100% of all applicable Additional Rent, and thereafter Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly Base Rent in an amount equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the last month of the Term of this Lease, plus 100% of all applicable Additional Rent. The monthly rent payable for such holdover period shall in no event be construed as a penalty or as liquidated damages for such retention of possession. Neither any provision hereof nor any acceptance by Landlord of any rent after any such expiration or earlier termination shall be deemed a consent to any holdover hereunder or result in a renewal of this Lease or an extension of the Term, or any waiver of any of Landlord’s rights or remedies with respect to such holdover. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, (a) Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease or upon the earlier termination hereof or at any time during any holdover and the right to assert any remedy at law or in equity to evict Tenant and collect damages in connection with any such holdover, and (b) Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all lost profits and other consequential damages, attorneys’ fees, consultants’ fees and court costs incurred or suffered by or asserted against Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease in accordance with the provisions of this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any and all such damages.
25. Subordination to Mortgages and Other Documents; Estoppel Certificate.
25.1 Subordination. This Lease, and the rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be subordinate to the interests of (a) all present and future ground leases and master leases of all or any part of the Project; (b) all present and future mortgages and deeds of trust encumbering all or any part of the Project; (c) all past and future advances made under any such mortgages or deeds of trust; and (d) all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of any such ground leases, master leases, mortgages and deeds of trust (collectively, “Security Documents”) which now or hereafter constitute a lien upon or affect the Project, the Building or the Premises. Subject to Section 25.02, below, such subordination shall be effective without the necessity of the execution by Tenant of any additional document for the purpose of evidencing or effecting such subordination. In addition, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated any such Security Documents to this Lease and in such case, in the event of the termination or transfer of Landlord’s estate or interest in the Building by reason of any termination or foreclosure of any such Security Documents, Tenant shall, notwithstanding such subordination,
38.
attorn to and become the Tenant of the successor in interest to Landlord at the option of such successor in interest. Furthermore, Tenant shall within ten (10) business days of demand therefor, execute (or make good faith comments to) any instruments or other documents which may be required by Landlord or the holder (“Holder”) of any Security Document and specifically shall execute (or make good faith comments to), acknowledge and deliver within ten (10) business days of demand therefor a subordination of lease or subordination of deed of trust, in commercially reasonable form if required by the Holder of the Security Document requesting the document; the failure to do so by Tenant within such time period shall be a material default hereunder. Such instruments may contain, among other things, provisions to the effect that such lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary (hereafter, for the purposes of this Section 25.01, a “Successor Landlord”) shall (i) not be liable for any act or omission of Landlord or its predecessors, if any, prior to the date of such Successor Landlord’s succession to Landlord’s interest under this Lease; (ii) not be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have been able to assert against Landlord or its predecessors, if any, prior to the date of such Successor Landlord’s succession to Landlord’s interest under this Lease; (iii) not be liable for the return of any security deposit under this Lease unless the same shall have actually been deposited with such Successor Landlord; and (iv) be entitled to receive notice of any Landlord default under this Lease plus a reasonable opportunity to cure such default prior to Tenant having any right or ability to terminate this Lease as a result of such Landlord default. Landlord is hereby irrevocably appointed and authorized as agent and attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute and deliver all such subordination instruments in the event that Tenant fails to execute and deliver said instruments within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord requesting execution and delivery thereof. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an “SNDA Agreement” in favor of Tenant with respect to any future Holder of a Security Document. An SNDA Agreement shall mean an agreement between Tenant and the Holder of a Security Document which provides that so long as Tenant is paying the Rent due hereunder and is not otherwise in Default hereunder, its right to possession of the Premises shall remain in effect.
25.2 Attornment. In the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any Security Document or deed in lieu thereof (or if any ground lease is terminated), Tenant agrees to attorn to the lienholder or purchaser or any successors thereto upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof (or to the ground lessor), if requested to do so by such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor as the landlord under this Lease. Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days of demand therefor, execute (or make good faith comments to) any instruments or other documents which may be required by Landlord or the Holder of any such Security Document (on any such Holder’s commercially reasonable form for such document (or in any other commercially reasonable form)) to evidence the attornment described in this Section 25.02.
25.3 Mortgage and Ground Lessor Protection. Tenant agrees to give each Holder of any Security Document, by certified mail or overnight courier, a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord by Tenant, provided that prior to such notice Tenant has been notified in writing of the address of such Holder (hereafter, a “Notified Party”). Tenant further agrees that if Landlord
39.
shall have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then within such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced such cure within such thirty (30) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then prior to Tenant pursuing any remedy for such default provided hereunder, at law or in equity, the Notified Party shall have an additional thirty (30) days within which to cure or correct such default (or if such default cannot reasonably be cured or corrected within that time but such Notified Party has informed Tenant within such thirty (30) day period of such Notified Party’s intent to attempt to cure such default, then such additional time as may be necessary if the Notified Party has commenced within such thirty (30) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default).
25.4 CC&Rs. Tenant acknowledges that the Project may be subject to any future covenants, conditions, and restrictions (the “CC&Rs”) which Landlord, in Landlord’s discretion, reasonably deems necessary or desirable, and Tenant agrees that this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to such CC&Rs. Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to execute and acknowledge, within fifteen (15) business days of a request by Landlord, a “Recognition of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions” in a commercially reasonable form agreeing to and acknowledging the CC&Rs.
25.5 Estoppel Certificates. Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) business days’ prior written notice from Landlord, execute (or make good faith comments to), acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying to those facts for which certification has been reasonably requested by Landlord or any current or prospective purchaser, Holder of any Security Document, ground lessor or master lessor, including, but without limitation, that (a) this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), (b) the dates to which the Annual Base Rent, Rent and other charges hereunder have been paid, if any, and (c) whether or not to the best knowledge of Tenant, Landlord is in default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default of which Tenant may have knowledge. The form of the statement attached hereto as Exhibit E is hereby approved by Tenant for use pursuant to this Section 25.05; however, at Landlord’s option, Landlord shall have the right to use other forms for such purpose. Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver such statement within such time shall, at the option of Landlord, constitute a material default under this Lease and, in any event, shall be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect without modification except as may be represented by Landlord in any such certificate prepared by Landlord and delivered to Tenant for execution. In the event that such certificate is being given to any Holder or ground lessor, such statement may contain any other provisions customarily required by such Holder or ground lessor including, without limitation, an agreement on the part of Tenant to furnish to such Holder or ground lessor, as applicable, written notice of any Landlord default and a reasonable opportunity for such Holder or ground lessor to cure such default prior to Tenant being able to terminate this Lease. In addition, Landlord is hereby
40.
irrevocably appointed and authorized as agent and attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute and deliver such statement in the event that Tenant fails to execute (or make good faith comments to) and deliver such statement within ten (10) business days after notice from Landlord requesting execution and delivery thereof. Any statement delivered pursuant to this Section 25.05 may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the fee of the Building or the Project or any mortgagee, ground lessor or other like encumbrancer thereof or any assignee of any such encumbrance upon the Building or the Project.
26. Letter of Credit.
26.1 Intentionally Omitted.
26.2 Letter of Credit.
A. On or before the Effective Date, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an unconditional, clean, irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) in the amount specified in Section 1.10 (the “Full L-C Amount”), which Letter of Credit (a) shall be in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (or contain variations only if approved by Landlord), (b) shall be issued by a regional or other money-center bank (a bank which accepts deposits, maintains accounts, has a local San Francisco, California office which will negotiate a Letter of Credit or alternatively which accepts draw requests via facsimile or overnight courier, and whose deposits are insured by the FDIC) reasonably approved by Landlord (the “Issuing Bank”), and (c) shall not be secured by cash deposited by Tenant with the Issuing Bank or by a pledge by Tenant to the Issuing Bank of cash or other collateral belonging to Tenant. Landlord hereby approves Silicon Valley Bank as the Issuing Bank. The amount of the Letter of Credit (the “L-C Amount”) shall be the Full L-C Amount.
B. Tenant shall pay all expenses, points and/or fees incurred in obtaining, modifying, renewing or reissuing the Letter of Credit pursuant to the provisions of this Section 26.02. The Letter of Credit shall be maintained in effect by Tenant for the Full L-C Amount until the date which is ninety (90) days following the expiration of the Term of this Lease.
C. The Letter of Credit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant, and the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Letter of Credit does not constitute and shall not, in any event, be deemed to constitute a security deposit. Tenant authorizes Landlord to take any actions necessary to perfect Landlord’s security interest in the Letter of Credit including, without limitation, to duly execute on behalf of Tenant (and for the benefit of Landlord or any of Landlord’s assigns) a financing statement describing the Letter of Credit as collateral (the “Financing Statement”) and to file or cause to be filed the Financing Statement with all appropriate authorities so as to perfect Landlord’s security interest in the Letter of Credit. Tenant agrees to (and Tenant shall) execute any Financing Statements and/or any further documents and to take any further actions reasonably requested by Landlord to evidence, perfect or maintain Landlord’s first priority security interest in the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit shall not be mortgaged, assigned or encumbered in any manner whatsoever by Tenant. The use, application or retention of the Letter
41.
of Credit, or any portion thereof, by Landlord shall not affect or prejudice any other right or remedy of Landlord provided by this Lease at law or in equity, it being intended that Landlord shall not be required to proceed against (or exhaust) the Letter of Credit as a condition of the exercise of any other remedy, and shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Any penalty or charge assessed by the Issuing Bank for any draw under the Letter of Credit or any other matter relating to the Letter of Credit shall be borne by Tenant.
D. If (a) Tenant commits a Default with respect to any provisions of this Lease, including but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, (b) Tenant fails to renew the Letter of Credit at least thirty (30) days before its expiration, or (c) the Issuing Bank repudiates the Letter of Credit or otherwise fails to comply with any of the requirements of this Section 26.02 (an “Issuing Bank Failure”) Landlord may, but shall not be required to, draw upon all or any portion of the Letter of Credit to the extent necessary (i) to cover the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, (ii) to cover the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, (iii) to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default, and/or (iv) in the case where Tenant fails to renew the Letter of Credit at least thirty (30) days prior to its expiration or there is an Issuing Bank Failure, for the entire L-C Amount. If any portion of the Letter of Credit is drawn upon by Landlord hereunder, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, either (A) reinstate the Letter of Credit to the amount then required under this Lease, or (B) provide Landlord with a new Letter of Credit in form and substance which is consistent with the provisions of this Section 26.02. Any amount of the Letter of Credit which is properly drawn upon by Landlord, but is not used or applied by Landlord, shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant pending reinstatement of the Letter of Credit to its full amount or delivery a new Letter of Credit in a form consistent with the provisions of this Section 26.02 (and promptly following any such reinstatement of the Letter of Credit or delivery of a new Letter of Credit, Landlord shall return such cash to Tenant and/or exchange the current Letter of Credit therefor). Tenant shall be responsible to maintain the Letter of Credit as issued by a financially responsible Issuing Bank at all times. In the event that, for any reason, the Letter of Credit shall be or become invalid or shall not conform to the requirements of this Section 26.02, or in the event the Issuing Bank shall be rendered insolvent (a “Reissuance Event”), Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of Landlord’s written demand to do so, cause a Letter of Credit conforming to the requirements of this Section 26.02 to be issued to Landlord by an Issuing Bank then conforming with the requirements of this Section 26.02. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 and all other provisions of Law now or hereafter in force, which might be construed so as to (x) restrict the amount or types of claims that a landlord may make upon or (y) impose upon a landlord (or its successors) any obligation with respect to the handling or return of a letter of credit that is held by a landlord as security for the faithful performance by a tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions to be kept and performed by a tenant under a lease.
42.
E. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer or mortgage its interest in the Project and/or the Premises in this Lease, and Tenant agrees that in the event of any such transfer or mortgage, Landlord shall have the right to freely transfer or assign the Letter of Credit to its transferee (either an owner or mortgagee of the Building) on one or more occasions provided that any such transferee agrees in writing to assume the obligations of Landlord hereunder with respect to the Letter of Credit and the proceeds of any draw upon the Letter of Credit, and in the event of such transfer, at Landlord’s request, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, take all such action to have the Letter of Credit reissued in the name of Landlord’s transferee and/or Landlord’s mortgagee, and in the case of such transfer, shall look solely to such transferee or mortgagee for the return of the Letter of Credit. From time to time as and if the Holder of any Security Document relating to the Project changes, or as other circumstances reasonably warrant, at Landlord’s request Tenant shall cause the Issuing Bank to reissue the Letter of Credit and/or permit transfer or assignment, on one or more occasion, of the Letter of Credit as requested by Landlord and/or the Holder of a Security Document in the Project. In the event any lender or any Holder of a Security Document shall desire to be named as a co-beneficiary (with Landlord) of the Letter of Credit, Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord’s efforts to achieve such result.
F. A “Letter of Credit Default” means any of the following, if not cured within ten (10) business days of Landlord’s delivery of notice of such event to Tenant:
(1) failure of Tenant to deliver the Letter of Credit within the time period specified in Section 26.02(A), above;
(2) failure of Tenant to renew the Letter of Credit at least twenty (20) days prior to expiration;
(3) an Issuing Bank Failure;
(4) any Reissuance Event; and
(5) Tenant’s failure to provide a substitute or additional Letter of Credit when and if required under Section 26.02(B).
26.03 As a material inducement to Landlord to enter into this Lease, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Letter of Credit and the proceeds thereof (including, without limitation, any cash Security Deposit created by the draw down of all or any portion of the Letter of Credit) and the obligation to make available or pay to Landlord all or a portion thereof in satisfaction of any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, shall be deemed third-party obligations and not the obligation of Tenant hereunder and, accordingly, (a) shall not be subject to any limitation on damages contained in Section 502(b)(6) of Title 11 of the United States Code or any other limitation on damages that may apply under any Law in connection with a bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding by, against or on behalf of Tenant, (b) shall not diminish or be offset against any amounts that Landlord would be able to claim against Tenant pursuant to Title 11 U.S.C. §502(b)(6) as if no Letter of Credit existed, and (c) may be relied on by Landlord in the event of an assignment of this Lease that is not expressly in accordance with the terms of this Lease even if
43.
such assignment has been authorized and approved by a court exercising jurisdiction in connection with a bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding by, against or on behalf of Tenant.
26.04 Provided that Tenant (a) has not been in Default under this Lease at any time during the Term and (b) tenders to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit or a certificate of amendment to the existing L-C conforming in all respects to the requirements of this Section 26, in the amount of the applicable Full L-C Amount prior to the applicable date set forth below, the Full L-C Amount shall be reduced in accordance with the following schedule:
Date | Full L-C Amount |
Commencement Date | $2,394,709.00 |
Fourth Anniversary of Commencement Date | 1,197,350.00.00 |
Sixth Anniversary of Commencement Date | $718,410.00 |
27. Notices.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, any consents, notices, demands, requests, approvals or other communications given under this Lease shall be in writing and may be served (a) by personal service, (b) by a reputable overnight courier service, which provides evidence of delivery, or (c) by certified mail, postage pre-paid, addressed to the Landlord at the address for Landlord set forth herein, and to Tenant at the address for Tenant set forth herein, or addressed to such other address or addresses as either Landlord or Tenant may from time to time designate to the other in writing. Any notice shall be deemed to have been served, (i) on the date on which it personally delivered, (ii) if sent by a reputable overnight courier service, on the business day immediately following the business day on which it was sent, or (iii) if sent via certified mail, on the date of delivery (provided, however, that in the case of notices sent pursuant to clause (i) or clause (iii), the date of delivery is a weekend or holiday, then such notice shall be deemed given on the next-succeeding business day. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, in the case where California statutory law requires that any notice, notice to quit or pay rent, summons or complaint (or any other form of writing required in connection with the assertion of rights against Tenant, the enforcement of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or the termination of Tenant’s rights hereunder) (collectively, “Statutory Written Notices or Complaints”) must be delivered or served in a particular form, delivered to or served on Tenant through delivery to or service on a particular representative of Tenant, or delivered or served in a particular manner (or by a particular method), for purposes of determining compliance with such applicable statutory requirements, the time, manner or method of delivery of all such Statutory Written Notices or Complaints delivered to or served on all of the Tenant addressees for notices listed below (other than the timing, manner and/or method of delivery of the Statutory Written Notice or Complaint to the first address listed below) shall be disregarded (so long as copies of such Statutory Written Notices or Complaints are delivered to the other Tenant addressees in accordance with the first sentence of this Article 27
44.
within three (3) business days of delivery to the first addressee listed below), and if the timing, manner and, method of delivery and form of the Statutory Written Notice or Complaint delivered to the first addressee listed below shall satisfy the applicable statutory requirements, then such statutory requirements shall be deemed satisfied with respect to the timing, manner, and method of delivery and form with respect to all Tenant addressees as of the date of delivery to the first addressee listed in Section 1.14.
28. Surrender of Premises.
Except as provided in Section 8 and in this Article 28, upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as when received at the inception of this Lease, subject to ordinary wear and tear. All Tenant Improvements and Alterations shall become a part of the Premises and shall become the property of Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, unless Landlord shall, in accordance with Article 9, require Tenant to remove any Required Removables, in which event Tenant shall, prior to the date of such expiration or termination, remove the Required Removables designated by Landlord to be so removed and shall promptly restore, patch and repair any resulting damage, all at Tenant’s sole expense. In the event of any failure of Tenant to perform its obligations under this Article 28, in addition to (and without prejudice to) any and all other remedies of Landlord, Landlord may use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit or Letter of Credit with respect to such failure. All business and trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture, movable partitions, wallcoverings, telecommunications equipment, data cabling and items of personal property owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, or the Project shall be and remain the property of Tenant, and upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, at its sole expense, remove all such items and repair any damage to the Premises or the Project caused by such removal. If Tenant fails to remove any such items or repair such damage promptly after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall be deemed to have abandoned the same, in which case Landlord may store the same at Tenant’s expense (and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof upon demand), or appropriate the same for itself, and/or sell the same in its discretion, with no liability to Tenant. Failure by Tenant to strictly comply with the provisions of this Article 28 shall constitute a failure of Tenant to validly surrender the Premises.
29. Option to Renew.
29.1 Grant of Option. Tenant shall have one (1) option (the “Extension Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease as to the entire Premises then subject to this Lease for an additional term of five (5) years (the “Extension Term”), subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained in this Article 29. The Extension Term shall commence upon the day immediately following the Expiration Date and shall end at 5 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Expiration Date. The Extension Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions as are provided for in this Lease, as then amended, except that (a) if Tenant fails to timely exercise the Extension Option, the Extension Option (and any other rights to extend or renew the Term) shall
45.
lapse and Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term of the Lease, (b) there shall be no further options to extend the Term pursuant to this Article 29 or otherwise following the Extension Term, (c) Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit against Rent or any other rent concession or rent allowance or abatement of Rent, except as specifically provided in Section 29.04 below, and (d) the Base Rent for the Extension Term shall be as provided in Section 29.03. The Extension Option and all of the rights contained in this Article 29 shall be personal to the Original Tenant and may only be exercised by the Original Tenant (and not by any assignee, sublessee or other Transferee of Tenant’s interest in this Lease other than an assignee pursuant to a Business Transfer), and then only if Tenant then occupies the entirety of the Premises (and any attempted exercise of an Extension Option under any other circumstances shall, at the election of Landlord, be null and void and of no force or effect).
29.2 Exercise. The Extension Option may be exercised only by Tenant giving written notice of exercise (an “Extension Notice”) to Landlord on or before the date that is not more than fifteen (15) and not less than twelve (12) months prior to the then scheduled Expiration Date. If Tenant does not timely deliver to Landlord the Extension Notice for the Extension Option pursuant to the provisions of this Article 29 within the time period set forth above, time being of the essence, then Tenant shall be deemed to have forever waived and relinquished such Extension Option, and any other options or rights to renew or extend the Term effective after the then applicable Expiration Date shall terminate.
29.3 Annual Base Rent. The Base Rent payable for the Premises during an Extension Term (the “Extension Term Base Rent”) shall be equal to (a) the amount of rentable square feet contained within the Premises then subject to this Lease, multiplied by (b) the FMRR (defined below) of the Premises as of the first day (an “Adjustment Date”) of such Extension Term, as determined in accordance with this Article 29.
29.4 Definition of FMRR. The “FMRR” of the Premises for a particular Extension Term shall be equal to the rent per rentable square foot that Landlord has agreed to accept, or if there has not been a reasonable number of current comparable transactions in the Building, that landlords of the Comparable Buildings have agreed to accept, and sophisticated nonaffiliated tenants of the Building or Comparable Buildings have agreed to pay, in current arms-length, nonequity (i.e., not being offered equity in the building), transactions for comparable space (in terms of condition, floor location, view and floor height) of a comparable size (in terms of rentable square feet), for a term equal to the Extension Term and commencing as of the first day of the Extension Term, which rent per rentable square foot shall take into account and make adjustment for the existence, timing and amount of any increases in rent following term commencement in the comparison transactions, and shall at all times take into consideration and make adjustment for all other material differences in all terms, conditions or factors (applicable to the transaction in question hereunder or applicable to one or more of the comparison transactions used to determine the FMRR) that a sophisticated tenant or sophisticated landlord would believe would have a material impact on a “fair market rental” determination; provided, however, that (a) the rent for all comparison transactions shall be adjusted to reflect payment of operating expenses and real estate taxes in the same manner as the same are
46.
payable hereunder, (b) the presence, amount or absence of brokerage commissions in either the subject transaction or the comparison transactions shall be disregarded, (c) any rent abatement or other free rent of any type provided in comparison transactions for the period of the performance of any tenant improvement work (i.e., any “construction period”) shall be disregarded, and (d) if any tenant improvements or allowance provided for in comparable transactions shall be taken into account, the value to Tenant of any existing improvements in the Premises shall also be accounted for in the calculation of the FMRR. If in determining the FMRR for a subject transaction hereunder, it is determined that free rent or cash allowances (collectively, “Concessions”) should be granted, Landlord may, at Landlord’s sole option, elect all or any portion of the following: (i) to grant some or all of the Concessions to Tenant as free rent or as an improvement allowance, or (ii) to adjust the monthly installments of the Extension Term Base Rent to be an effective rental rate which takes into consideration and deducts from monthly rent the amortized amount of the total dollar value of such Concessions, amortized on a straight line basis over the Extension Term (in which case the Concessions so amortized shall not be granted to Tenant). As used herein, “Comparable Buildings” shall mean comparable Class “A” office buildings in the South of Market submarket of San Francisco, California at the time the Extension Term commences.
29.5 Procedure for Determining the FMRR. For purposes of determining the FMRR, the following procedure shall apply:
A. If Tenant has timely delivered the Extension Notice with respect to the Extension Option, Landlord shall within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Extension Notice, deliver to Tenant a written notice (a “Market Rent Notice”) of Landlord’s determination of what Landlord then believes the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) would be during the Extension Term. Within ten (10) business days after Tenant’s receipt of a Market Rent Notice, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord written notice (a “Market Rent Response Notice”) electing either (i) to accept the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) set forth in the Market Rent Notice, in which case the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) shall be as set forth in the Market Rent Notice, or (ii) to not accept Landlord’s determination of the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent), in which case Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to agree upon the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) on or before the date that is ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Market Rent Response Notice (the “Outside Agreement Date”). If Tenant fails to deliver Tenant’s Market Rent Response Notice within ten (10) days after its receipt of a Market Rent Notice (or fails in its Market Response Notice to expressly reject Landlord’s determination of the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) set forth in a Market Rent Notice), Tenant shall conclusively be deemed to have accepted Landlord’s determination of the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) set forth in the Market Rent Notice. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) by the Outside Agreement Date, then the FMRR shall be determined by arbitration pursuant to this Section 29.05.
B. If Landlord and Tenant shall fail to agree upon the FMRR (and Extension Term Base Rent) on or before the Outside Agreement Date, then, within ten (10) days thereafter, each of Landlord and Tenant shall submit to the other its determination of the FMRR (and Extension
47.
Term Base Rent) and such determinations shall be submitted to arbitration (as Tenant’s and Landlord’s “submitted FMRR,” respectively) in accordance with the following:
C. Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator who shall by profession be a real estate broker who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of commercial high-rise properties in the San Francisco, California area. The determination of the arbitrators shall be limited solely to the issue as to whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted FMRR is the closest to the actual FMRR, as determined by the arbitrators, taking into account the requirements of this Article 29. Each such arbitrator shall be appointed within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date, the arbitrator appointed by the other shall solely render a decision as to the FMRR, notify Landlord and Tenant thereof, and such arbitrator’s decision shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
D. The two arbitrators so appointed shall within ten (10) days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same standard as described in Section 29.05(c), above (with respect to appointment of the initial two arbitrators).
E. The three arbitrators shall within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted FMRR and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof.
F. The decision of the majority of the three arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant, shall be in writing and shall be non-appealable, and counterpart copies thereof shall be delivered to Landlord and Tenant. A judgment or order based upon such award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. In rendering their decision and award, the arbitrators shall have no power to vary, modify or amend any provision of this Lease.
G. If the two arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator, or both parties fail to appoint an arbitrator, then the appointment of the third arbitrator or any arbitrator shall be dismissed and the matter to be decided shall be promptly submitted to arbitration under the provisions of the American Arbitration Association, but subject to the instructions set forth in this Article 29.
H. The cost of arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally.
29.6 Conditions to Exercise of Each Extension Option. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article 29 to the contrary, at the election of Landlord, any attempted exercise by Tenant of an Extension Option shall be invalid and ineffective if, on the date of such attempted exercise, Tenant is in default under this Lease, and any exercise of such Extension Option shall be deemed null and void and of no force and effect, at the election of Landlord, if (i) on the commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant is in default under this Lease, or (ii) Tenant has previously been in default under this Lease more than once.
48.
30. Confidentiality. Tenant agrees that (a) the terms and provisions of this Lease are confidential and constitute proprietary information of Landlord and (b) it shall not disclose, and it shall cause its partners, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, brokers and attorneys to not disclose any term or provision of this Lease to any other person without first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord. The foregoing will not preclude Tenant from disclosing terms and provisions of this Lease (i) to a proposed subtenant or assignee, (ii) to Tenant’s counsel, real estate advisors, accountants, lenders and/or potential investors or (iii) as may be mandated by an order of a court or other governmental body having jurisdiction after giving reasonable notice to Landlord with adequate time for such other party to seek a protective order or the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
31. Signage Rights.
A. Except to the Except to the extent expressly provided in this Article 31, Tenant shall not, (a} place or install (or permit to be placed or installed by any Tenant Party) any signs, advertisements, logos, identifying materials, pictures or names of any type on the roof, exterior areas or Common Areas of the Building or the Project or in any area of the Building, Premises or Project which is visible from the exterior of the Building or outside of the Premises or (b) place or install (or permit to be placed or installed by any Tenant Party) in or about any portion of the Premises any window covering (even if behind Building standard window coverings) or any other material visible from outside of the Premises or from the exterior of the Building.
B. Subject to compliance with applicable Laws and such Building signage criteria as Landlord shall apply from time to time and subject to receipt of Landlord’s prior written consent, in the case where Tenant occupies an entire floor in the Building, Tenant may place in any portion of such floor which is not visible from the exterior of the Building such identification signage as Tenant shall desire. For avoidance of doubt, such signage may include Tenant’s name and/or logo. Landlord shall, at its expense, provide a proportionate share of Tenant identification on the main directory located in the Building lobby. Any changes to Tenant’s identification on such directory requested by Tenant shall be made by Landlord at Tenant’s sole expense. All signage in the Premises described in this Section 31 (B} shall be treated as Tenant’s personal property under the provisions of Article 8 with respect to Tenant’s obligation at the expiration or early termination of this Lease.
32. Financial Statements. At any time during the Term and upon Landlord’s execution of a commercially reasonable nondisclosure agreement and the execution of such agreement by any third party potential lender or purchaser to whom Landlord intends to disclose the specific information described herein, Tenant shall, upon ten (10) business days’ prior notice from Landlord, provide Landlord with then current financial statements and financial statements for each of the two (2) years prior to the then current calendar year for Tenant; provided, however, (i) if the financial statements of Tenant are not available to the general public, except in the case where Landlord is requesting such financial statements for delivery to an existing or prospective lender (a “Requesting Lender”) (A) in connection with a new loan (a “Project Loan”) (or modification or extension of
49.
an existing loan) secured in whole or in part by some form of mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest in the Project (or some interest therein) or {B) under circumstances where the failure to so deliver such financial statements would (or could, with notice, the passage of time, or both) constitute a default under any document relating to a Project Loan, Tenant shall not be required to provide those financial statements which are not available to the general public; provided, further, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the circumstances described in either exception (A) or (B} of the foregoing proviso, Tenant shall be required to provide the financial statements of Tenant in the form required hereunder only to the Requesting Lender (but not to Landlord). Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, and shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant.
33. Miscellaneous.
33.1 This Lease shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of California.
33.2 Landlord and Tenant hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction and proper venue of the State of California, County of San Francisco, City of San Francisco.
33.3 If any term or provision of this Lease shall to any extent be void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected.
33.4 If there is more than one Tenant or if Tenant is comprised of more than one party or entity, the obligations imposed upon Tenant shall be joint and several obligations of all the parties and entities, and requests or demands from any one person or entity comprising Tenant shall be deemed to have been made by all such persons or entities. Notices to any one person or entity shall be deemed to have been given to all persons and entities.
33.5 Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that each individual executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant is authorized to do so on behalf of Tenant and that Tenant is not, and the entities or individuals constituting Tenant or which may own or control Tenant or which may be owned or controlled by Tenant are not, (a) in violation of any laws relating to terrorism or money laundering, or (b) among the individuals or entities identified on any list compiled pursuant to Executive Order 13224 for the purpose of identifying suspected terrorists or on the most current list published by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control at its official website http//xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxx/xxxxxx.xxx or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list.
33.6 Subject to the provisions of Exhibit B, if either Landlord or Tenant institutes a suit against the other for violation of or to enforce any covenant, term or condition of this Lease (including, without limitation, any arbitration proceeding), the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement of all of its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, actual attorneys’ fees.
33.7 To the fullest extent permitted by law, Landlord and Tenant each expressly waive any right to trial by jury in any proceeding based upon a claim arising out of or in connection with
50.
this Lease in which Landlord and Tenant are adverse parties. No failure by either party to declare a default immediately upon its occurrence, nor any delay by either party in taking action for a default, nor Landlord’s acceptance of Rent with knowledge of a default by Tenant, shall constitute a waiver of the default, nor shall it constitute an estoppel. The filing of a cross-complaint by one against the other is sufficient to make the parties “adverse.”
33.8 Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall incur any liability to the other with respect to, and shall not be responsible for any failure to perform, any of their obligations hereunder (other than Tenant’s obligations to pay Rent hereunder) if such failure is caused by any reason beyond the control of Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, including, but not limited to, strike, labor trouble, governmental rule, regulations, ordinance, statute or interpretation, or by fire, earthquake, civil commotion, or failure or disruption of utility services (collectively, a “Force Majeure”). The amount of time for either Landlord or Tenant to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be extended on a day for day basis for each day that Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, is delayed in performing such obligation by reason or any Force Majeure occurrence, whether similar to or different from the foregoing types of occurrences. In the event that either party hereto is delayed in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder by Force Majeure, such party shall promptly notify the other party of such delay, and the nature of the Force Majeure in question.
33.9 Except as expressly provided herein, this Lease and the obligations of Landlord and Tenant contained herein shall bind or inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant and their respective successors and assigns, provided this clause shall not permit any Transfer by Tenant contrary to the provisions of Article 12.
33.10 Landlord reserves the following rights exercisable without notice (except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease) and without being, deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use or possession of the Premises or giving rise to any claim for set-off or abatement of Rent: (a) to change the name or street address of the Building and/or the Project; (b) to install, affix and maintain all signs on the exterior and/or interior of the Building and/or the Project; (c) to designate and/or approve prior to installation, all types of signs, window shades, blinds, drapes, awnings or other similar items, and all internal lighting that may be visible from the exterior of the Premises and, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 8, the design, arrangement, style, color and general appearance of the portion of the Premises which is visible from the exterior, and contents thereof, including, without limitation, furniture, fixtures, signs, art work, wall coverings, carpet and decorations, and all changes, additions and removals thereto, shall, at all times have the appearance of premises having the same type of exposure and used for substantially the same purposes that are generally prevailing in the premises of first class office buildings in the area; (d) to display the Premises and/or the Building and/or the Project to mortgagees, prospective mortgagees, prospective purchasers and ground lessors at reasonable hours upon reasonable advance notice to Tenant; (e) to change the arrangement of entrances, doors, corridors, elevators and/or stairs in the Building and/or the Project, provided no such change shall materially adversely affect access to, or materially adversely affect the provision of essential services to, the Premises; (f) to grant any party the exclusive right to conduct any business or render any service in the Building or in the
51.
Project, provided such exclusive right shall not operate to prohibit Tenant from using the Premises for the purposes permitted under this Lease; (g) to prohibit the placement of vending or dispensing machines of any kind in or about the Premises other than for use by Tenant’s employees and business invitees; (h) to prohibit the placement of video or other electronic games in the Premises; (i) to close the Building after normal business hours, except that Tenant and its employees and invitees shall be entitled to admission at all times under such rules and regulations as Landlord prescribes for security purposes; (j) to install, operate and maintain surveillance systems which monitor, by closed circuit television or otherwise, all persons entering or leaving the Building and/or the Project; (k) to install and maintain pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and structural elements located in the Premises which serve other parts or other tenants of the Building and/or the Project (subject to the provisions of Section 10.1); and (I) to retain at all times master keys or pass keys to the Premises.
33.11 Landlord has delivered a copy of this Lease to Tenant for Tenant’s review only and the delivery of it does not constitute an offer to Tenant or an option.
33.12 Tenant represents that it has dealt directly with and only with the Broker as a broker in connection with this Lease. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord and the Landlord Related Parties harmless from all claims of any other brokers other than Broker claiming to have represented Tenant in connection with this Lease. Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant and the Tenant Parties harmless from all claims of any brokers claiming to have represented Landlord in connection with this Lease. Landlord agrees to pay a brokerage commission to Broker in accordance with the terms of a separate written commission agreement to be entered into by and between Landlord and Broker.
33.13 Provided that Tenant performs all of its obligations hereunder, Tenant shall have and peaceably enjoy the Premises during the Term of this Lease, subject to all of the terms and conditions contained in this Lease, from and against all persons holding an interest in the Project from and through Landlord.
33.14 This Lease does not grant any rights to light or air over or about the Building. Landlord excepts and reserves exclusively to itself any and all rights not specifically granted to Tenant under this Lease.
33.15 The Common Areas shall be subject to the exclusive management and control of Landlord, and Tenant shall comply with all Rules and Regulations from time to time pertaining to the Common Areas. Landlord shall have the right from time to time as determined in Landlord’s good faith discretion, to designate, modify, eliminate, add to, change, relocate and/or limit (or limit the use of) the particular areas or portions of the Project designated as Common Areas, so long as such changes do not (a) prevent Tenant from accessing the Premises or the Parking Facilities, (b) materially and substantially increase Tenant’s obligations, (c) decrease in any material manner the level of utility services or elevator service required to be provided to the Premises without Tenant’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord shall also have the right to close all or any portion of the Common Areas as may, in the reasonable
52.
discretion of Landlord, be necessary to prevent a dedication thereof or the accrual of any rights in any person.
33.16 This Lease constitutes the entire agreement relating to the leasing of the Premises and the obligations of Landlord and Tenant in connection with such leasing. This Lease supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between Landlord and Tenant related to the Premises, including all lease proposals, letters of intent and other documents, and alone expresses the agreement of the parties. Neither party is relying upon any warranty, statement or representation not contained in this Lease.
33.17 This Lease shall not be may be amended, changed or modified in any way unless by a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of Landlord and Tenant. Neither party shall have waived or released any of its rights hereunder unless in writing and executed by such party.
33.18 Tenant’s Does.
(a) In General. Subject to the provisions of this Section 33.18, Tenant shall be permitted to bring non-aggressive, fully domesticated fully-vaccinated, dogs into the Premises (which dogs are owned by Tenant or an officer or employee of Tenant) (“Tenant’s Dogs”). Tenant’s Dogs must be on a leash while in any area of the Project outside of the Premises. Within three (3) business days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s request, Tenant shall provide Landlord with reasonably satisfactory evidence showing that all current vaccinations have been received by Tenant’s Dogs. Tenant’s Dogs shall not be brought to the Project if such dog is ill or contracts a disease that could potentially threaten the health or wellbeing of any tenant or occupant of the Building (which diseases may include, but shall not be limited to, rabies, leptospirosis and lyme disease). While in the Building, Tenant’s Dogs must be taken directly to/from the Premises and Tenant shall use the Building’s freight elevator to bring Tenant’s Dogs to/from the Premises. Tenant shall not permit any objectionable dog related odors to emanate from the Premises, and in no event shall Tenant’s Dogs be at the Project overnight. All bodily waste generated by Tenant’s Dogs in or about the Project shall be promptly removed and disposed of in trash receptacles designated by Landlord, and any areas of the Project affected by such waste shall be cleaned and otherwise sanitized. No Tenant’s Dog shall be permitted to enter the Project if such Tenant’s Dog previously exhibited dangerously aggressive behavior. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord shall have the unilateral right at any time to rescind Tenant’s right to have Tenant’s Dogs in the Premises, if in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, Tenant’s Dogs are found to be a substantial nuisance to the Project (for purposes hereof, Tenant’s Dogs may found to be a “substantial nuisance” if Tenant’s Dogs defecate in the Common Areas, damages or destroys property in the Project or exhibits threatening behavior). The right to bring Tenant’s Dogs into the Premises pursuant to this Section 33.18 is personal to Pagerduty, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Original Tenant”) and any assignee pursuant to a Business Transfer. If the Original Tenant Transfers the Lease (other than pursuant to a Business Transfer) or sublets all or any portion of the
53.
Premises, the right to bring Tenant’s Dogs into such Transferred portion of the Premises shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.
(b) Costs and Expenses. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within fifteen (15) business days after demand, all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s Dogs presence in the Building, Premises or Project, including, but not limited to, janitorial, waste disposal, landscaping and repair. If Landlord receives any verbal or written complaints from any other tenant or occupant of the Project in connection with health-related issues (e.g., allergies) related to the presence of the Tenant’s Dogs in the Premises, the Building or the Project, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly meet and mutually confer, in good faith, to determine appropriate mitigation measures to eliminate the causes of such complaints (which mitigation measures may include, without limitation, additional and/or different air filters to be installed in the Premises heating, air conditioning and ventilation system, or elsewhere in the Building), and Tenant shall cause such measures to be taken promptly at its sole cost or expense.

1.3 Calculation Methods and Adjustments.
1.3.1 The variable components of Operating Expenses (“Variable Expenses”) for all or any portion of any Expense Year (including the Base Year) during which actual occupancy of all of the Building is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the Rentable Square Footage of the Building (as if all tenants are paying full rent, as contrasted with free rent, half rent and the like, such that those Variable Expense which are dependent on the amount of rent payable are fully
Exhibit B- 7
grossed up) shall be adjusted by Landlord on a basis, consistent with Institutional Owner Practices applying sound accounting and property management principles (and the provisions of this Lease) to reflect ninety-five percent (95%) occupancy of the Rentable Square Footage of the Building during such period (as if all tenants are paying full rent, as contrasted with free rent, half rent and the like, such that those Variable Expenses which are dependent on the amount of rent payable are fully grossed up); provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may “gross up” Variable Expenses under this Section 1.3 based upon 100% occupancy and level of service in the Building so long as such percentage is used consistently for each year of the term. If during all or any part of any Expense Year Including the Base Year), Landlord does not provide any particular item of benefit, work or service (the cost of which is a Variable Expense) to portions of the Project due to the fact that such item of benefit, work or service is not required or desired by the tenant of such space, or such tenant is itself obtaining and providing such item of benefit, work or service, or for any other reason, then for purposes of computing Variable Expenses for such Expense Year (including the Base Year), Operating Expenses shall be increased on a basis consistent with Institutional Owner Practices by an amount equal to the additional Variable Expenses which would have been paid or incurred by Landlord during such period if it had furnished such item of benefit, work or service to such portions of the Project throughout such period.
1.3.2 Subject to the provisions of this Section 1.3, all calculations, determinations, allocations and decisions to be made hereunder with respect to Operating Expenses or Property Taxes shall be made in accordance with the good faith determination of Landlord applying sound accounting and property management principles consistently applied and on a basis which is consistent with Institutional Owner Practices. Landlord shall have the right to equitably allocate some or all of Operating Expenses among particular classes or groups of tenants or occupants of the Project (for example, retail tenants and office tenants) to reflect Landlord’s good faith determination that measurably different amounts or types of services, work or benefits associated with Operating Expenses are being provided to or conferred upon such classes or groups. Subject to the provisions of this Section 1.3, from time to time Landlord shall have the right to expand or contract the amount, scope, level or types of services, work, items or benefits, the cost of which is included within Operating Expenses, so long as Landlord’s treatment of the same for purposes of the calculation of Operating Expenses is generally consistent with Institutional Owner Practices. All assessments and premiums of Operating Expenses or Property Taxes which can be paid by Landlord in periodic installments shall be paid by Landlord in the maximum number of periodic installments permitted by Law; provided, however, that if the then prevailing Institutional Owner Practice is to pay such assessments or premiums on a different basis, Landlord may utilize such different basis of payment. Subject to applicable Laws, Landlord shall solely determine all decisions with respect to the method and manner by which all Utility Services shall be billed and provided in the Building, which determinations shall be made by Landlord in good faith and on a basis consistent with Institutional Owner Practices (including the right to allocate utility expenses based upon studies which allocate utility usages among the tenants or occupants of the Building based upon the estimated use by the respective tenants). Landlord shall have the right to exclude from Base Year Operating Expenses the cost of items of service, work or benefits (i) not provided following the Base Year, (ii) incurred due to circumstances not applicable following the Base Year or due to market-wide labor-rate increases in Operating Expenses due to extraordinary circumstances, including, without limitation, boycotts, embargoes and strikes, and utility rate
Exhibit B- 8
increases due to extraordinary circumstances, and (iii) amortized costs relating to capital improvements.
1.4 Payment Procedure; Estimates. During each Expense Year Landlord may elect to give Tenant written notice (the “Estimated Statement”) of its estimate of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of excess Operating Expenses and excess Property Taxes for that Expense Year. On or before the first day of each calendar month during such Expense Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one-twelfth (1/12th) of such estimated amounts; provided, However, that, not more often than twice per year, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, revise its estimate for such Expense Year, and all subsequent payments under this Section 1.4 by Tenant for such Expense Year shall be based upon such revised estimate, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Tenant within one hundred fifty (150) days after the close of each Expense Year or as soon thereafter as is practicable, a statement of that year’s Property Taxes and Operating Expenses, and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of actual excess Property Taxes and actual excess Operating Expenses payable for such Expense Year as determined by Landlord in accordance with the provisions of this Lease (the “Landlord’s Statement”) and such Landlord’s Statement shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant, except as provided in Section 1.5 below. If the amount of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of actual Property Taxes and Operating Expenses for any Expense Year is more than the estimated payments with respect to such Expense Year made by Tenant, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within thirty (30) days following receipt of Landlord’s Statement. If the amount of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of actual Property Taxes and Operating Expenses for any Expense Year is less than the estimated payments for such Expense Year made by Tenant, any excess shall be credited against Rent next payable by Tenant under this Lease or, if the Term of this Lease has expired, any excess shall be paid to Tenant within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s delivery of Landlord’s Statement, No delay in providing any Landlord’s Statement described in this Section 1.4 shall act as a waiver of Landlord’s right to receive payment from Tenant under this Exhibit B above with respect to Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Property Taxes and/or Operating Expenses for the period covered thereby. If this Lease shall commence on a day other than the first day of a calendar year or terminate on a day other than the end of a calendar year, the amount of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of actual Property Taxes and actual Operating Expenses payable under this Exhibit B that is applicable to the calendar year in which such commencement or termination occurs shall be prorated on the basis that the number of days from the Commencement Date to December 31 of such calendar year or the number of days from January 1 of such calendar year to the termination date, as applicable, bears to the number 365. The expiration or early termination of this Lease shall not affect the obligations of Landlord and Tenant pursuant to this Exhibit B to be performed after such expiration or early termination.
1.5 Review of Landlord’s Statement.
1.5.1 Provided that an uncured Default by Tenant does not then exist, and provided further that Tenant strictly complies with the requirements of this Section 1.5, Tenant shall have the right to reasonably review and photocopy (at Tenant’s expense) Landlord’s supporting books and records for any portion of the Property Taxes or Operating Expenses (collectively, “Expense Records”) for a particular Expense Year covered by a Landlord’s Statement, in accordance with the following procedure:
Exhibit B- 9
1.5.2 If Tenant shall desire to review any portion of the Expense Records with respect to an Expense Year covered by a Landlord’s Statement, Tenant shall, within one hundred twenty (120) days after any such Landlord’s Statement is delivered to Tenant, deliver a written notice (a “Review Notice”) to Landlord stating that Tenant is electing to conduct a review of Landlord’s Statement and the Expense Records (and as a condition of commencement of any review of Landlord’s Expense Records, Landlord may require Tenant and Tenant’s Accountant to execute and deliver to Landlord, a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement (“Landlord’s Confidentiality Agreement”). As a condition of its right to deliver a Review Notice for a particular Landlord’s Statement, Tenant shall simultaneously pay to Landlord all amounts remaining due from Tenant to Landlord as specified in the Landlord’s Statement. . Except as expressly set forth in Section 1.5.3 below, in no event shall Tenant be entitled to withhold, deduct, or offset any monetary obligation of Tenant to Landlord under this Lease (including without limitation, Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Base Rent and all payments of Additional Rent pending the completion of, and regardless of the results of, any review of Expense Records under this Section 1.5). The right of Tenant to review the Expense Records covered by, and dispute particular amounts billed under, a Landlord’s Statement under this Section 1.5 may only be exercised once for each Expense Year covered by any Landlord’s Statement, and if Tenant fails to deliver a Review Notice within the one hundred twenty (120) day period described above (or fails to commence its review of the applicable Expense Records within thirty (30) days following delivery of any such Dispute Notice or otherwise fails to complete such review within forty-five (45) days of commencement thereof) or fails to meet any of the other above conditions of exercise of such rights set forth in this Section 1.5, each and all of Tenant’s rights (under, this Section 1.5 or otherwise) to review the Expense Records for the period covered by such Landlord’s Statement, to dispute any amount billed to Tenant pursuant to (or otherwise described in) such Landlord’s Statement, or to otherwise make any claim with respect to the calculation of Operating Expenses or Property Taxes relating to the Expense Year in question shall automatically be deemed waived by Tenant.
1.5.3 Tenant acknowledges that Landlord maintains its Expense Records for the Project at Landlord’s manager’s corporate offices and Tenant agrees that any review of Expense Records under this Section 1.5 shall be at the sole expense of Tenant and shall be conducted by independent certified public accountants of national or regional standing selected by Tenant (“Tenant’s Accountant”), who shall not be compensated on a contingency fee or any similar basis relating to the results of such review. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that any Expense Records of Landlord reviewed under this Section 1.5 (and the information contained therein) constitute confidential information of Landlord, which Tenant shall not disclose, nor permit to be disclosed by Tenant or Tenant’s Accountant, to any person or entity other than the Tenant’s Accountant performing the review, Tenant’s attorneys and consultants, and the principals of Tenant who receive the results of the review (and as a condition of commencement of any review of Landlord’s Expense Records, Landlord may require Tenant’s Accountant to execute and deliver to Landlord, Landlord’s Confidentiality Agreement).
1.5.4 If Tenant contends that an error exists with respect to any Landlord’s Statement covered by a Review Notice and Landlord disagrees with Tenant’s contention that such error exists with respect to such Landlord’s Statement (and the Operating Expenses and/or Property Taxes described therein) in dispute, Landlord shall have the right to cause another review of that
Exhibit B- 10
portion of Landlord’s Statement (and the Operating Expenses and Property Taxes stated therein) to be made by a firm of independent certified public accountants of national standing selected by Landlord (“Landlord’s Accountant”). In connection therewith, Landlord’s Accountant and Tenant’s Accountant shall consult one another in good faith to resolve any differences in their respective findings. In the event following such consultation, Landlord and Tenant shall continue to not agree as to any material issue, either party may submit all such disputes to binding arbitration. The exercise of Tenant’s rights under this Section 1.5 shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy for any claim by Tenant relating to any claimed overcharge for Operating Expenses and/or Property Taxes. In the event that it is determined in any such arbitration that total Operating Expenses and Property Taxes for the period covered by the Landlord’s Statement in question have been overstated by more than five percent (5%), then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of Tenant’s Accountant and the amount of any overpayment by Tenant of estimated Operating Expenses and/or Property Taxes for the period in question shall be credited against Tenant’s obligations to pay Additional Rent next coming due; in all other cases, Tenant shall be liable for (and shall reimburse Landlord on demand for) Landlord’s Accountant’s actual fees and expenses, and Tenant shall also bear all of Tenant’s Accountant’s fees and expenses. In the event that it is determined that Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of total Operating Expenses and Property Taxes for the period covered by the Landlord’s Statement in question are less than the amount actually paid therefor for such period by Tenant, the amount of any such overpayment by Tenant for the period in question shall be credited against Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent next coming due (or if this Lease shall have previously expired or terminated, shall be paid in cash by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days of the determination in question); in the event that it is determined that Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of total Operating Expenses and Property Taxes for the period in question is more than the amount paid by Tenant for such period, Tenant shall promptly (within thirty (30) days of such determination) pay the amount of the underpayment to Landlord.

to Landlord: (i) a request for payment (“Request for Payment”), which in the case of the Contractor only, shall be on a standard AIA (G702) form, (ii) invoices from all of Tenant’s Agents (defined in Section 4.1.2, below) for labor rendered and materials delivered to (or with respect to) the Premises (and covered by the Request for Payment) for the applicable payment period, (iii) executed conditional mechanic’s lien releases from all subcontractors and from Tenant’s Agents (who have potential mechanics’ lien rights under applicable law), as applicable, which shall comply with the appropriate provisions of California Civil Code Section 8132, and (iv) all other information reasonably requested by Landlord for all work requested to be paid for from the Tenant Credit Amount under such Request for Payment. Landlord’s receipt of a Request for Payment from the Contractor shall be deemed to constitute Tenant’s authorization for Landlord to disburse the amounts requested to such Contractor as set forth in the Request for Payment and to deduct such amounts from the Tenant Credit Amount. Landlord’s receipt from Tenant of a Request for Payment or invoices from Tenant’s Agents shall be deemed Tenant’s acceptance and approval of the work furnished and/or the materials supplied to the Premises as set forth in the Tenant Request for Payment vis-à-vis Landlord (but not vis-à-vis Tenant’s Agents).

On or before the date which is forty-five (45) days after the date on which Landlord receives a Request for Payment from Tenant or from the Contractor (the “Payment Date”), and on the condition that Landlord shall receive the applicable information described in items (i) through (iv) of Section 2.3.1(a), above, and for all work requested to be paid for from the Tenant Credit Amount under such Request for Payment, and unconditional lien releases, if applicable, for all work paid for from the Tenant Credit Amount on the previous Payment Date (and to the extent not previously received for any work in the Building paid for from any portion of the Tenant Credit Amount), Landlord shall deliver a check to Contractor or to Tenant, as directed by Tenant, in payment of the lesser of: (A) the amounts so requested in the Request for Payment, as set forth in Section 2.3.1(a), above, and (B) subject to the provisions of Section 2.3.2, below, the balance of any remaining available portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, less (x) any amount requested for Design Fees in excess of the Design Cost Limit, and (y) (subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3.2) a ten percent (10%) retention (with the aggregate amount of such retentions to be known as the “Final Retention”). The Final Retention shall be calculated so as to not be duplicative of any retention separately imposed by Tenant with respect to payment to a Contractor.
2.3.2 Final Retention. Subject to the provisions of this Work Letter, checks for the Final Retention payable to the Contractor for Construction the Tenant Improvements shall be delivered by Landlord (as directed by Tenant) to Tenant or to the Contractor within forty-five (45) days after the date, following Substantial Completion (defined in Section 5.3, below) of the Tenant Improvements, on which Contractor or Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord: (a) properly executed copies of all unconditional mechanics lien releases (which shall comply with both California Civil Code Section 8132) from all subcontractors and all of Tenant’s Agents (who have potential mechanics’ lien rights under applicable Laws) and (b) a copy of a final invoice from the Contractor requesting payment of the retention amount.

Any failure by Tenant to pay in cash, in full any such Over-Allowance Amount or Excess Tenant Improvement Costs to Landlord within the time periods specified above shall constitute an Event of Default under the Lease and a Tenant Work Letter Default. Notwithstanding anything in this Work Letter or the Lease to the contrary, (x) Landlord shall have the right to discontinue its performance of the Tenant Improvements until such time as Tenant complies with the requirements of this Section 2.3.3(a) and (y) Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any additional costs, lost profits, lost economic opportunities or any form of consequential damage which may result from any such discontinuance by Landlord under this Section 2.3.3(a).
(b) Following final completion of the Tenant Improvements, and upon Landlord’s receipt of a Request for Payment (and all other information required pursuant to Section 2.3.2, above) requesting disbursement of the Final Retention, Landlord shall reconcile the actual total Tenant Improvement Costs disbursed by Landlord hereunder with the total of the Tenant Credit Amount, and if the Tenant Credit Amount exceeds the Tenant Improvement Costs, then, to the extent of any Deposits previously paid by Tenant, Landlord shall promptly return the amount of such excess Deposits to Tenant. In any event, at all times, Tenant shall pay and satisfy in full on a timely basis all obligations for payment incurred by Tenant in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements.
2.3.4 Other Terms. Landlord shall only be obligated to make disbursements from the Tenant Improvement Allowance to the extent that costs are incurred by Tenant for Tenant Improvement Allowance Items.

Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 12 above and subject to the following conditions, Tenant's employees shall have the right to bring dogs to the Premises (the "Dogs"): (a) Tenant shall be responsible for the actions of all Dogs and Tenant shall indemnify Landlord from the actions of the Dogs pursuant to Article 14 of the Original Lease; (b) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days after written request for any damages caused to the Premises or Project by Dogs; (c) Dogs shall not be permitted to urinate or defecate in the Premises or the Project, and Dogs shall be regularly taken to a site outside the Project to urinate and/or defecate; (d) if notwithstanding Tenant's best efforts to prevent a Dog from urinating or defecating at the Project, a Dog urinates and/or defecates at the Project, Tenant shall promptly remove and properly dispose of the urine or feces; (e) [OMITTED]; (f) Landlord may prohibit a Dog from returning to the Project if it barks, growls, jumps on or intimidates persons at the Project or otherwise creates any type of nuisance or disturbance; (g) Dogs shall only be present in the Premises while the Dog's owner is at the Premises, and Dogs shall not be left unattended by their owners; (h) if Landlord reasonably determines that Dogs are a health hazard for any reason (e.g., other persons at the Project are allergic to Dogs), Landlord may prohibit Tenant or its employees from bringing any Dogs to the Premises, provided Landlord similarly prevents all other Building tenants with similar restrictions in their leases from bringing Dogs into the Building; (i) Landlord may from time to time adopt reasonable rules and regulations governing the Dogs, and Tenant's and its employees right to bring a Dog to the Project shall thereafter be conditioned on their compliance with such rules and regulations; (j) the form and content of the Pet Agreement shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord; (k) no Dogs may be bathed or groomed within the Premises or at the Project; (1) no pet food or water may be left outside the Premises and all pet food and water must be stored in sealed containers; (m) Dogs are not permitted to be walked or held in the Common Areas except on a leash; (n) in no event shall any toilet boxes, "pee-pee pads" or dog waste of any kind exist in the Premises; (o) Dogs must enter the Expansion Space through the street entrance; (p) Dogs must use the freight elevators to access the Existing Premises; and (q) Dogs may not use the front entrance of the Building to access the Existing Premises or the Expansion Space. Landlord shall have the right to repair any damage to the Building caused by Dogs and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of such repairs within thirty (30) days after Landlord's written request. Tenant shall be responsible for any extra maintenance, janitorial or similar requirement in connection with Dogs brought onto the Project by Tenant or its employees, including but not limited to carpet cleaning, excrement removal, painting, wall repair, floor care, and landscape repair and replacement. Tenant's surrender obligations under the Lease (as amended) shall include remediating and correcting any damage or increased wear and tear caused by the Dogs permitted hereunder.
13.Interior Signage. Landlord shall, at Landlord's expense, provide for the Expansion Space a proportionate share of Tenant identification on the main directory located in the Building lobby; provided, however, any future changes to Tenant's identification on such directory requested by Tenant shall be made by Landlord at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Subject to Landlord's prior written approval of Tenant's plans and specifications therefor, Tenant shall be permitted to install, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, Tenant's logo and graphics immediately outside the interior entrance to the Premises within the Building entry area ("Entry Signage"). Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to agree upon the location and the dimensions of the Entry Signage. All Signage described in this Section 13 shall be treated as Tenant's personal property under the provisions of Article 8 of the Original Lease with respect to Tenant's obligation at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (as amended).
3.
14.Exterior Eyebrow Sign. Provided Tenant is not in Default under the Lease, during the New Term and any extension thereof, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to fabricate and install one (1) "eyebrow" sign depicting Tenant's name on the Building's exterior immediately above the Expansion Space ("Tenant's Eyebrow Signage"). Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to agree upon the location and the dimensions of Tenant's Eyebrow Signage. Tenant's Eyebrow Signage shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval in Landlord's reasonable discretion as to size, design, name, graphics, materials, colors and similar specifications and shall be consistent with the exterior design, materials and appearance of the Building and the Building's signage program and shall be further subject to existing tenants' sign rights, all applicable local governmental laws, rules, regulations, codes (including, without limitation, the City of San Francisco Planning Code) and Tenant's receipt of all permits and other governmental approvals, and any applicable covenants, conditions and restrictions. Tenant hereby acknowledges that, notwithstanding Landlord's approval of Tenant's Eyebrow Signage and/or the specifications therefor, Landlord has made no representations or warranty to Tenant with respect to the probability of obtaining such approvals and permits referenced in the preceding sentence. In the event Tenant does not receive the necessary permits and approvals for Tenant's Eyebrow Signage, Tenant's and Landlord's rights and obligations under the remaining provisions of the Lease (as amended) shall not be affected. Tenant shall have the right, from time to time, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to modify Tenant's Eyebrow Signage if Tenant's name changes, subject to Landlord's prior written approval in each case, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Landlord shall have the right to approve the contractor that installs Tenant's Eyebrow Signage and the contractor shall comply with all of Landlord's policies and procedures relating to construction performed at the Building (e.g., insurance, safety, etc.). Tenant's Eyebrow Signage shall be personal to the original Tenant named in this Second Amendment and may not be assigned to any assignee (other than an assignee of Tenant's interest in the Lease pursuant to the provisions of a Business Transfer provided that Tenant's Eyebrow Signage for such assignee shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval in each case, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) or sublessee, or any other person or entity. Landlord has the right, but not the obligation, to oversee the installation of Tenant's Eyebrow Signage. Tenant shall maintain, repair and operate Tenant's Eyebrow Signage in a first class condition at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and Tenant shall be separately metered for any utilities consumed by Tenant's Eyebrow Signage (the cost of separately metering any utility usage shall also be paid for by Tenant). Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of the Lease (as amended), Tenant shall be responsible for any and all costs associated with the removal of Tenant's Eyebrow Signage, including, but not limited to, the cost to repair and restore the Building exterior to its original condition, normal wear and tear excepted.
15.Letter of Credit. Effective as of the date of this Second Amendment, Section 26.04 of the Lease shall be restated in its entirety as follows:
"26.04 The initial Full L-C Amount shall be $2,394,709.00. The Full L-C Amount may be reduced to $650,000.00 if Tenant satisfies all of the following conditions: (a) Tenant has not been in Default under the Lease (as amended) at any time during the Term of the Lease (as hereby extended) through the date of delivery of the I,-C Reduction Notice (defined below) to Landlord; (b) Tenant provides a written notice ("L‑C Reduction Notice") to Landlord, which written notice may not be delivered prior to July 1, 2020, with audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles evidencing that Tenant has been Profitable (defined below) as to each of the four (4) consecutive calendar quarters immediately prior to the date of delivery of the L-C Reduction Notice to Landlord; and (c) Tenant tenders to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit or a certificate of amendment to the existing Letter of Credit conforming in all respects to the requirements of this Article 26 with the exception that the Full L-C Amount shall be $650,000.00. "Profitable" shall mean that Tenant's earnings were positive before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization."
16.Stairwell between 1st and 2nd Floors. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use the Building's interior stairwell for travel between the first (1st) and second (2nd) floors of the Building.
17.Option to Extend. Tenant shall have one (1) five (5) year Extension Option to further extend the New Term on the terms and conditions set forth in Article 29 of the Original Lease with the following revisions thereto: (a) Tenant must exercise such Extension Option as to both the Existing Premises and the Expansion Space concurrently or as to neither of such spaces; and (b) all references therein to "Expiration Date" shall mean "New Expiration Date".
4.
18.Notice of New Term Dates. Landlord may deliver to Tenant a commencement letter in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit "C" and made a part hereof at any time after the Expansion Commencement Date. Tenant agrees to execute (or make good faith corrective comments to) and return to Landlord said commencement letter within five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt thereof
19.Energy Bills. Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to provide Landlord with copies of bills from electricity, natural gas or similar energy providers (collectively, "Energy Providers") Tenant receives from Energy Providers relating to Tenant's energy use at the Premises ("Energy Bills") within thirty (30) days after Landlord's written request. In addition, Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to obtain copies of the Energy Bills directly from the Energy Provider(s), and Tenant hereby authorizes each Energy Provider to provide Energy Bills and related usage information directly to Landlord without Tenant's consent. From time to time within thirty (30) days after Landlord's request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an agreement provided by Landlord authorizing the Energy Provider(s) to provide to Landlord Energy Bills and other information relating to Tenant's energy usage at the Premises.
20.Conflict. If there is a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment and the terms and conditions of the Lease, the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment shall control. Except as modified by this Second Amendment, the terms and conditions of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Capitalized terms included in this Second Amendment shall have the same meaning as capitalized terms in the Lease unless otherwise defined herein. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Lease is in full force and effect, Landlord is not currently in default under the Lease, and, to the best of Tenant's knowledge, no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would ripen into Landlord's default under the Lease. The Lease, as hereby amended, contains all agreements of the parties with respect to the lease of the Premises. No prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding pertaining to the Lease, as hereby amended, shall be effective.
21.Authority. The persons executing this Second Amendment on behalf of the parties hereto represent and warrant that they have the authority to execute this Second Amendment on behalf of said parties and that said parties have authority to enter into this Second Amendment.
22.Brokers. Tenant and Landlord each represent and warrant to the other that neither has had any dealings or entered into any agreements with any person, entity, broker or finder other than Colliers International on behalf of Landlord and Xxxxx Xxxx LaSalle on behalf of Tenant in connection with the negotiation of this Second Amendment, and no other broker, person, or entity is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in connection with the negotiation of this Second Amendment, and Tenant and Landlord each agree to indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from and against any claims, damages, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees or liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed by any such unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings, actions or agreements of the indemnifying party. Landlord will compensate the brokers identified above pursuant to the provisions of a separate written agreement.
23.Confidentiality. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Second Amendment are confidential and constitute proprietary information of Landlord. Disclosure of the terms hereof could adversely affect the ability of Landlord to negotiate other leases with respect to the property and may impair Landlord's relationship with other tenants of the property. Tenant agrees that it and its partners, officers, directors, employees, brokers, and attorneys, if any, shall not disclose the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of Landlord which may be given or withheld by Landlord, in Landlord's sole discretion. It is understood and agreed that damages alone would be an inadequate remedy for the breach of this provision by Tenant, and Landlord shall also have the right to seek specific performance of this provision and to seek injunctive relief to prevent its breach or continued breach. As described in Article 30 of the Original Lease, this Section 23 shall not preclude Tenant from disclosing the terms and provisions of the Lease (as amended by this Second Amendment) (i) to a proposed subtenant or assignee, (ii) to Tenant's counsel, real estate advisors, accountants, lenders and/or potential investors or (iii) as may be mandated by an order of a court or other governmental body having jurisdiction after giving reasonable notice to Landlord with adequate time for such other party to seek a protective order or the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
5.
24.Delivery of Amendment. Preparation of this Second Amendment by Landlord or Landlord's agent and submission of same to Tenant shall not be deemed an offer by Landlord to enter into this Second Amendment. This Second Amendment shall become binding upon Landlord and Tenant only when fully executed by all parties and when Landlord has delivered a fully executed original of this Second Amendment to Tenant. The delivery of this Second Amendment to Tenant shall not constitute an agreement by Landlord to negotiate in good faith, and each party expressly disclaims any legal obligation to negotiate in good faith. To Landlord's actual knowledge, the Existing Premises and Expansion Space have not undergone an inspection by a certified access specialist. In addition, to Landlord's actual knowledge, a disability access inspection certificate for the Existing Premises and Expansion Space have not been issued. Pursuant to Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby provides the following notification to Tenant: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction related accessibility standards within the premises." Landlord's actual knowledge shall mean and be limited to the actual knowledge of the person who is the Building owner's asset manager (not the Building's property manager) on the date this Second Amendment is executed by Landlord, without any duty of inquiry or investigation, and such asset manager shall have no personal liability if such representation is untrue.
25.Execution. This Second Amendment and any documents or addenda attached hereto (collectively, the "Documents") may be executed in two or more counterpart copies, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall have the same force and effect as if the parties had executed a single copy of the Document Landlord shall have the right, in Landlord's sole discretion, to insert the name of the person executing a Document on behalf of Landlord in Landlord's signature block using an electronic signature (an "Electronic Signature"), and in this event the Document delivered to Tenant will not include an original ink signature and Landlord shall have no obligation to provide a copy of such Document to Tenant with Landlord's original ink signature. A Document delivered to Tenant by Landlord with an Electronic Signature shall be binding on Landlord as if the Document had been originally executed by Landlord with an ink signature. Without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion, Tenant shall not have the right to insert the name of the person executing the Document on behalf of Tenant using an Electronic Signature and all Documents shall be originally executed by Tenant using an ink signature. A Document executed by Landlord or Tenant and delivered to the other party in PDF, facsimile or similar electronic format (collectively, "Electronic Format") shall be binding on the party delivering the executed Document with the same force and effect as the delivery of a printed copy of the Document with an original ink signature. This Section describes the only ways in which Documents may be executed and delivered by the parties. An email from Landlord, its agents, brokers, attorneys, employees or other representatives shall never constitute Landlord's Electronic Signature or be otherwise binding on Landlord. Subject to the limitations set forth above, the parties agree that a Document executed using an Electronic Signature and/or delivered in Electronic Format may be introduced into evidence in a proceeding arising out of or related to the Document as if it was a printed copy of the Document executed by the parties with original ink signatures. Landlord shall have no obligation to retain copies of Documents with original ink signatures, and Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to elect to discard originals and to retain only copies of Documents in Electronic Format.

EXHIBIT "B"
WORK LETTER AGREEMENT
This Work Letter Agreement ("Agreement") is attached to a Second Amendment to Lease (the "Second Amendment") covering certain expansion space (the "Expansion Space") more particularly described in Exhibit "A" attached to the Second Amendment. In consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:
1.TENANT IMPROVEMENT COORDINATOR. Within three (3) business days after the Second Amendment Effective Date, Landlord and Tenant shall each designate in writing the name of one person who shall be that party's tenant improvement representative. All communication concerning the Improvements (defined below) shall be directed to the appropriate party's tenant improvement representative. Tenant shall not have the right or authority to instruct Landlord's contractor to take any action. Any action Tenant desires Landlord's contractor to take shall be communicated by Tenant to Landlord's tenant improvement representative, and Landlord's tenant improvement representative shall give the necessary instructions to the contractor.
2.BASE BUILDING. Landlord shall complete, using the Standards (defined in Section 4 below) (a) the base building work for the Expansion Space set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto, (b) the replacement of the current doors in place in the Expansion Space located along the east wall (facing the Building's main lobby) with glass windows in each opening, and (c) installation of conduit leading from the Building's MPOE to the Expansion Space (collectively, the "Base Building Work"). The cost of all additional improvements to the Expansion Space desired by Tenant (the -Improvements") shall be funded from the Improvement Allowance (as defined below) and if no monies remain in the Improvement Allowance, shall be paid for by Tenant, at Tenant's sole expense. Except for the Base Building Work and the funding of the Improvement Allowance, Landlord shall have no obligation to make additional improvements to the Expansion Space at Landlord's expense. References to or depictions of furniture, fixtures and equipment ("FF&E") on Schedules 1 or 2 shall not be interpreted to obligate Landlord to pay costs or expenses associated with the purchase or installation of FF&E.
3. | PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS |
3.1 | SPACE PLAN. Attached hereto as Schedule 2 is a list ("List of Improvements") of the additional improvements to the Expansion Space (the "Improvements") Tenant desires to have constructed in the Expansion Space. Based on the List of Improvements, Landlord shall cause to be prepared a space plan for the construction of the Improvements and deliver the same to Tenant for Tenant's reasonable approval. The Space Plan shall be consistent with the List of Improvements. Within five (5) business days after receipt by Tenant of a draft of the Space Plan, Tenant (a) shall give its written approval with respect thereto, or (b) shall notify Landlord in writing of its reasonable disapproval and state with specificity the grounds for such reasonable disapproval and the revisions or modifications necessary in order for Tenant to give its approval. After approval of the Space Plan by Landlord and Tenant, no further changes to the Space Plan shall be made without the prior written approval of Landlord and only after Tenant agreeing that any delays in design and/or construction resulting from such change shall constitute a Tenant Delay. |
3.2 | PLANS. Based on the approved Space Plan, Landlord shall cause to be prepared detailed plans and working drawings (the "Plans") for the construction of the Improvements. The Plans shall be consistent with the Space Plan and shall incorporate the use of the Standards. The estimated Expansion Commencement Date (as defined in Section 2 of the Second Amendment) shall be extended for any delays in obtaining any necessary governmental approvals resulting from the insufficiency of the Space Plan or the Plans or any delays resulting from changes in the Plans required by the applicable governmental regulatory agency reviewing the Plans. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have the right to prepare the Plans in a way that complies with applicable governmental laws and regulations, even if the Plans deviate from the specifications of the Space Plan. Within five (5) business days after receipt by Tenant of a draft of the Plans, Tenant (a) shall give its written approval with respect thereto, or (b) shall notify Landlord in writing of its reasonable disapproval and state with specificity the grounds for such reasonable disapproval and the revisions or modifications |
EXHIBIT "B"
-1-
necessary in order for Tenant to give its approval. After approval of the Plans by Landlord and Tenant, no further changes to the Plans shall be made without the prior written approval of Landlord and only after Tenant agreeing that any delays in design and/or construction resulting from such change shall constitute a Tenant Delay.
4.SPECIFICATIONS FOR BUILDING STANDARD IMPROVEMENTS. Specifications and details for Building standard improvements ("Standards") are available upon request. A copy of the Standards are attached hereto as Schedule 3. Except as specified in Section 5 below, the Base Building Work, the Space Plan and Plans shall be consistent with the Standards, and no deviations shall be permitted from the Standards without Landlord's consent as set forth in Section 5 below.
5.GROUNDS FOR DISAPPROVAL. Tenant may request deviations from the Standards for the improvements provided that the deviations ("Non-Standards") shall not be of lesser quality than the Standards. Landlord shall not be required to approve any Non-Standards that are not acceptable to Landlord, in Landlord's reasonable discretion.
6. | IMPROVEMENT COST AND ALLOWANCE |
6.1 | COST BREAKDOWN. Within fifteen (15) business days following approval of the Plans, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a breakdown of the estimated total cost of the Improvements ("Cost Breakdown"), including, without limitation: construction cost of the Improvements; the architectural and engineering fees relating to the preparation and review of the Space Plan and the Plans (inclusive of all design work above and below the ceiling); governmental agency plan check, permit and other fees; sales and use taxes; testing and inspection costs; and construction fees (including commercially competitive general contractor's overhead and supervision fees and the construction supervisory fee referred to in Section 7.3 hereof). The Cost Breakdown will be completed on an -open book" basis, with no additional markups to Landlord, and Tenant shall have the right to review the basis for the determination of the Cost Breakdown. Within five (5) business days after receipt by Tenant of the Cost Breakdown, Tenant shall either approve the same in writing or shall provide Landlord with a detailed list of revisions to the approved Plans. If Tenant disapproves the Cost Breakdown, any time delay incurred as a result thereof (e.g., time delays due to revisions to the Plans and/or obtaining additional bids) shall constitute Tenant Delay. The Cost Breakdown shall not include the cost of computer or telephone wiring or any cost associated with the design, purchasing or installation of FF&E, and all such costs shall be paid by Tenant, at Tenant's sole expense. References to or depictions of FF&E on the Space Plan or the Plans shall not be interpreted to entitle Tenant to use any portion of the Improvement Allowance to pay costs or expenses associated with the purchase or installation of FF&E. |
6.2 | IMPROVEMENT ALLOWANCE. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant an "Improvement Allowance" of $168,870.00, which Improvement Allowance shall be used only for the items specified in the Cost Breakdown (excluding FF&E). In the event that the Cost Breakdown exceeds the Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the sum in excess of the Improvement Allowance by cashier's check or wire transfer, which payment shall be made in two equal installments as follows: (a) fifty percent (50%) of such excess within ten (10) business days following Tenant's approval of the Cost Breakdown; and (b) the remaining fifty percent (50%) of such excess within ten (10) business days following Substantial Completion of the Improvements in the Expansion Space. |
6.3 | COST INCREASES. In the event that the cost of the Improvements increases subsequent to Tenant's approval of the Cost Breakdown due to the requirements of any governmental agency imposed with respect to the construction of the Improvements or due to any other circumstances, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such increase within five (5) business days of Landlord's written notice; provided, however, that Landlord shall first apply toward such increase any remaining balance in the Improvement Allowance. |
6.4 | CHANGE IN PLANS. In the event that Tenant requests a change in the Space Plan or Plans subsequent to approval of the Cost Breakdown, Landlord shall advise Tenant of Landlord's estimate of any increases in the cost of the Improvements and any delay such change would cause in the construction of the Improvements (the "Estimate"), which delay shall constitute Tenant Delay. Tenant shall approve or disapprove such change |
EXHIBIT "B"
-2-
within five (5) business days after receiving Landlord's Estimate. In the event that Tenant approves such change, Tenant shall accompany its approval with payment in the amount of any cost increase resulting from such change; provided, however, that Landlord shall first apply toward such increase any remaining balance in the Improvement Allowance. Landlord shall have the right to decline Tenant's request for a change in the approved Plans if the change is inconsistent with the Space Plan or Sections 3, 4 or 5 above. All delays in the completion of the Improvements caused by changes requested by Tenant shall constitute Tenant Delay; provided, however, if the costs of the Improvements exceeds the Improvement Allowance based upon the initial Estimate delivered by Landlord to Tenant, Tenant shall have the one time right, within five (5) business days after receiving Landlord's initial Estimate, to request in writing to Landlord that the scope of the Improvements be revised to eliminate the construction of one (1) or more Restoration Items (as defined in Section 11 below), and the time to complete the revisions to the Plans to eliminate the construction of the Restoration Items so designated by Tenant shall not be considered a Tenant Delay.
6.5 | NO REFUND. If the actual cost of the Improvements does not exceed the Improvement Allowance, the unused portion of the Improvement Allowance shall not be paid or refunded to Tenant or be available to Tenant as a credit against any obligations of Tenant under the Lease (as amended). Any portion of the Improvement Allowance not expended prior to the date that is one (1) year after the date of the Second Amendment shall be retained by Landlord, and Tenant shall have no further right to the use of such unused portion of the Improvement Allowance. |
7. | CONSTRUCTION OF IMPROVEMENTS. |
7.1 | CONSTRUCTION. As soon as reasonably possible following approval of the Cost Breakdown by Tenant, and after payment of any sum required under Section 6.2 above, Landlord shall instruct its contractor to commence construction of the Improvements in a first-class manner and in compliance with all applicable laws and codes, using all new materials. |
7.2 | COMPLETION. Landlord shall endeavor to cause the contractor to Substantially Complete construction of the Improvements in a diligent manner, but Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage as a result of delays in construction of the Improvements or delivery of possession of the Expansion Space. |
7.3 | CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISORY FEE. The cost of the Improvements shall include a construction supervisory fee payable to Landlord equal to three percent (3.0%) of the so called -hard" cost of constructing the Improvements. |
8.EXPANSION COMMENCEMENT DATE. The Expansion Commencement Date under the Second Amendment shall be governed by Section 2 of the Second Amendment. For purposes of this Second Amendment, "Substantial Completion" of the Improvements in the Expansion Space shall occur upon the completion of construction of the Improvements in the Expansion Space pursuant to the Plans, with the exception of any minor punch list items, the lack of completion of which, and the work of completion of which, will not prevent Tenant from occupying the Expansion Space for the purposes of conducting its business operation ("Punch List Items") and any tenant fixtures, work-stations, built-in furniture, or equipment to be installed by Tenant. Any delay in completing the construction of the Improvements resulting from any of the following shall constitute "Tenant Delay":
8.1 | Tenant's failure to approve or reasonably disapprove the Space Plans or Plans within the time limits provided herein; |
8.2 | Tenant's failure to approve the Cost Breakdown or to pay the sum specified in Section 6.2 above within the time limits provided herein; |
8.3 | Tenant's request for Non-Standards, whether as to materials or installation, that extend the time it takes to obtain necessary building permits or other governmental authorizations or to complete the construction of the Improvements after being informed by Landlord that the Non-Standards in question will be so-called "long lead time" items; |
EXHIBIT "B"
-3-
8.4 | Tenant's changes in the Space Plan after the approval of the Space Plan by Landlord and Tenant or Tenant's changes in the Plans after the approval of the Plans by Landlord and Tenant; |
8.5 | Any act or omission of Tenant constituting a Tenant Delay under the terms of this Agreement or the Lease (as amended); or |
8.6 | Any other acts or omissions of Tenant, Tenant's agents, employees and contractors that delays the completion of the Improvements. |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, except with respect to the events described in Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above, no Tenant Delay shall be deemed to have occurred unless and until Landlord notifies Tenant and Tenant's improvement representative (which notice may be via electronic mail) of the event or circumstance which Landlord maintains constitutes a Tenant Delay, and Tenant's failure within two (2) business days thereafter, to either remedy such event or circumstance or reasonably dispute that such event or circumstance constitutes a Tenant Delay.
9.TENANT DELAY. If there shall be a delay or there are delays in the Substantial Completion of the Improvements in the Expansion Space as a result of any Tenant Delay(s), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Second Amendment or this Work Letter and regardless of the actual date of the Substantial Completion of the Improvements in the Expansion Space, for the purposes of determining the commencement of Tenant's rental obligations with respect to the Expansion Space and the Expansion Commencement Date, the date of Substantial Completion thereof shall be deemed to be the date that Substantial Completion would have occurred if no Tenant Delay or Delays, as set forth above, had occurred.
10.PUNCH LIST ITEM. Concurrently with Landlord's delivery of the Expansion Space to Tenant, a representative of Landlord and a representative of Tenant shall perform a walk-through inspection of the Improvements in the Expansion Space to identify any Punch List Items, which Punch List Items Landlord shall repair or correct no later than thirty (30) days after the date of such walk-through (unless the nature of such repair or correction is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for completion, in which case Landlord shall commence such repair or correction work within such thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecute the same to completion).
11.REMOVAL. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (as amended), Tenant shall not be responsible for the removal of any Base Building Work set forth on Schedule I attached hereto or any of the Improvements described in the Space Plan attached hereto as Schedule 2 except that Tenant shall remove from the Expansion Space upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (as amended) those Improvements identified on Schedule 4 attached hereto ("Restoration Items") and return such area(s) to their condition prior to the construction of such Improvements. Based on the Restoration Items set forth on Schedule 4 attached hereto, Landlord shall cause to be prepared a more formal exhibit depicting the Restoration Items ("Restoration Exhibit"), and deliver the same to Tenant for Tenant's reasonable approval. Within five (5) business days after receipt by Tenant of a draft of the Restoration Exhibit, Tenant (a) shall give its written approval with respect thereto, or (b) shall notify Landlord in writing of its reasonable disapproval and state with specificity the grounds for such reasonable disapproval and the revisions or modifications necessary in order for Tenant to give its approval; provided, however, Tenant may only disapprove the Restoration Exhibit if the same is inconsistent with the Restoration Items set forth on Schedule 4 attached hereto. If and to the extent that Tenant requests a modification to the Space Plan, Landlord shall have the right, by notice to Tenant delivered concurrently with Landlord's approval of Tenant's proposed change to the Space Plan, to require that Tenant remove from the Expansion Space upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (as amended) any additional or alternate Improvements constructed in the Expansion Space as a consequence of Tenant's requested modification and return such area(s) to their condition prior to the construction of such modification(s).
12.INCORPORATION. This Agreement is and shall be incorporated by reference in the Second Amendment, and all of the terms and conditions of the Second Amendment are and shall be incorporated herein by this reference.

Tenant has requested that Landlord permit Owner to bring a dog to the Premises on the terms and conditions set forth in this Pet Agreement ("Agreement").

2. Dog. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Owner shall have the right to bring the Dog to the Premises. Owner shall not have the right to bring any other dog to the Premises. Owner represents and warrants to Landlord that all of the Dog's vaccinations (including, but not limited to, rabies) are current and shall be current at all times the Dog is present at the Building. Within one (1) business day after written request by Landlord Tenant shall provide Landlord with written evidence from a veterinarian that the Dog has received all of its vaccinations.
3. Conditions. Owner hereby agrees as follows: (a) Owner shall reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days after written request for any damages caused to the Premises or Building by the Dog; (b) the Dog shall not be permitted to urinate of defecate in the Premises or the Building, and Owner shall regularly take the Dog to a site outside the Building to urinate and/or defecate; (c) if notwithstanding Owner's best efforts to prevent the Dog from urinating or defecating at the Building, the Dog urinates and/or defecates at the Building, Owner shall promptly remove and properly dispose of the urine or feces; (d) Landlord may prohibit the Dog from returning to the Building if it smells, barks, growls, jumps on or intimidates persons at the Building or otherwise creates any type of nuisance or disturbance; (e) Owner shall never leave the Dog unattended and Owner shall keep the Dog with Owner at all times; (f) if Landlord determines that

The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
6. [OMITTED]

If Landlord sells the Building, Landlord may transfer and assign its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to the subsequent owner of the Building, and after such transfer or assignment Landlord shall have no further liability or obligation under this Agreement, and Owner agrees to look solely to such successor in interest of Landlord for performance of such obligations. Owner shall have no right to transfer or assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement.
8. No Waiver. Failure by Landlord to insist on strict performance of any of the conditions, covenants, terms, or provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any of its rights under this Agreement may not be construed to waive such rights, but Landlord shall have the right to enforce such rights at any time and take such action as might be lawful or authorized hereunder, either in law or in equity.
9. Default. Owner shall be in default under this Agreement in the event Owner fails to perform any of its obligation under this Agreement within five (5) days after written notice from Landlord to Owner (a "Default"). In the event Owner is in Default under this Agreement, Landlord shall have all rights and remedies available at law or in equity. Landlord's rights under this Agreement are cumulative and the exercise of any rights and remedies does not exclude any right or remedy.
