1.17 “Guarantor(s)”: None.
2. Grant of Tenancy; Re-measurement Right.
2.1 Grant of Tenancy. Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant and Tenant leases the
Premises from Landlord, together with the right in common with others to use any portions of the
Project that are designated by Landlord for the common use of tenants and others, such as
sidewalks, entrances and access roads, unreserved parking areas, common corridors, elevator foyers,
restrooms, vending areas and lobby areas (the “Common Areas”).
2.2 Re-Measurement. For purposes of this Lease, “rentable square feet” and “usable square
feet” shall be calculated pursuant to Standard Method of Measuring Floor Area in Office Building,
ANSI Z65.1 — 1996 (“BOMA”). The rentable and usable square feet of the Premises and the
Building are subject to verification from time to time by Landlord’s space planner/architect and
such verification shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2; provided,
however, the Premises and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share shall not be subject to any such remeasurement
during the initial Term. The determination of Landlord’s space planner/architect shall be
conclusive and binding upon the parties. Following the initial Term, in the event that Landlord’s
space planner/architect determines that the amounts thereof shall be different from those set forth
in the Basic Lease Information, all amounts, percentages and figures appearing or referred to in
this Lease based upon such incorrect amount (including, without limitation, the amount of the
“Rent” as that term is defined in this Lease) shall be modified in accordance with such
determination effective as of the date of such determination. If such determination is made, it
will be confirmed in writing by Landlord to Tenant.
3. Actual Commencement Date; Possession.
3.1 Substantial Completion of Premises. If Landlord is required to perform any Landlord
Work pursuant to the terms of the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit D, the actual
“Commencement Date” of the Lease shall be deemed to occur upon which the Premises are “Ready for
Occupancy” as provided in the Work Letter.
3.2 Turnover of Premises. Subject to Landlord’s obligation, if any, to perform Landlord
Work and Landlord’s obligations under Section 10.2 below, the Premises are accepted by Tenant in
“as is” condition and configuration. Subject to Landlord’s obligation, if any, to perform Landlord
Work and Landlord’s obligations under Section 10.2 below, by taking possession of the Premises,
Tenant agrees that the Premises are in good order and satisfactory condition, and that there are no
representations or warranties by Landlord regarding the condition of the Premises, the Building or
the Project. If Landlord is delayed delivering possession of the Premises or any other space due
to the holdover or unlawful possession of such space by any party, Landlord shall use reasonable
efforts to obtain possession of the space. If Landlord is not required to substantially complete
Landlord Work before the Commencement Date, the Commencement Date shall be postponed until the date
Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant free from occupancy by any party, and the
Termination Date, at the option of Landlord, may be postponed by an equal number of days. In the
event that the Premises are not Ready for Occupancy (as defined in the Work Letter) by September 1,
2011 (the “Rent Credit Date”) for reasons other than delays caused by Tenant (including
delays due to Tenant’s early entry pursuant to Section 3.4 below and/or delays specified in Section
5.2 of the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit D) or Tenant’s default hereunder or by Force
Majeure (as defined in Section 27.6 hereof), Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy (other than the
right to terminate described in the
paragraph below) shall be a credit against Rent (hereafter defined) in the amount of one (1) day’s
worth of Rent for each day following the Rent Credit Date that the Commencement Date does not
occur.
-2-
In the event that the Premises are not Ready for Occupancy by October 1, 2011 (the “Outside
Date”), subject to extension by reasons of delays caused by Tenant (including delays due to
Tenant’s early entry pursuant to Section 3.4 below and/or delays specified in Section 5.2 of the
Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit D) or Tenant’s default hereunder, or by Force Majeure, then
Tenant, as it sole and exclusive remedy, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate
this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date, in which event
this Lease and Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall terminate as of the thirty-first
(31st) day following Landlord’s receipt of such written notice from Tenant and all
liability by reason of the Lease shall cease except such liability as expressly survives
termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may void such right of Tenant to terminate
the Lease if Landlord causes the Commencement Date to occur within thirty (30) days after
Landlord’s receipt of such termination notice from Tenant.
3.3 Pre-Term Occupancy. If Tenant takes possession of the Premises before the Commencement
Date for the normal conduct of its business, such possession shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of this Lease and Tenant shall pay Rent (defined in Section 4 below) to Landlord for
each day of possession before the Commencement Date. However, except for the cost of services
requested by Tenant (e.g. freight elevator usage), Tenant shall not be required to pay Rent for any
days of possession before the Commencement Date during which Tenant, with the approval of Landlord,
is in possession of the Premises for the sole purpose of performing improvements or installing
furniture, equipment or other personal property.
3.4 Early Entry. Landlord shall allow Tenant to enter the Premises at least thirty (30)
days prior to the date upon which the Premises is deemed “substantially complete” for the sole
purpose of installing furniture, telecommunications systems, data cabling, equipment or other
personal property (the “Preparation Work”). Provided that (i) Tenant has provided prior
written notice to Landlord of its intention to enter the Premises under this Section 3.4; (ii)
Tenant delivers to Landlord the insurance certificates required under Section 14 below; and (iii)
such early entry is for the sole purpose of performing the Preparation Work, Tenant shall not be
required to pay Rent (defined below) during such thirty (30) early occupancy period (with the
exception of the cost of services requested by Tenant [e.g. freight elevator usage]) but shall
otherwise be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. Any such early entry by
Tenant shall not interfere with the completion of the Landlord Work, the Tenant Improvements
(hereafter defined) or the improvement work of any other tenants in the Building and Tenant shall
use its good faith, reasonable efforts to coordinate its early entry so as not to interfere with
the Landlord Work and the completion of the Tenant Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Landlord may terminate Tenant’s early right of entry at any time without any liability to Tenant
for any loss or damage incurred by Tenant as a result thereof, in the event Landlord reasonably
determines that Tenant’s presence is interfering with the Landlord Work or the completion of the
Tenant Improvements.
3.5 Renewal Option. Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term (the “Renewal
Option”) with respect to all space leased by Tenant at the time of Tenant’s Renewal Notice (as
defined below) for one (1) additional period of five (5) years commencing on the day following the
Termination Date of the initial Term and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the
Termination Date (the “Renewal Term”), provided (i) Landlord receives written notice of
exercise of the Renewal Option (“Tenant’s Renewal Notice”) not less than nine (9) months
and not more than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial Term, (ii) Tenant has
not been in default of any of its Rent obligations under this Lease or in material default under
any other terms of this Lease beyond any applicable cure periods during the twelve (12)-month
period prior to the time that Tenant delivers its Tenant’s Renewal Notice or during the twelve
(12)-month period prior to the time Tenant delivers its Binding Notice (hereinafter defined), and
(iii) Tenant executes and returns the Renewal Amendment (hereinafter defined) within thirty (30)
days after its submission to Tenant, provided the Renewal Amendment contains only those terms
relating to Tenant’s exercise of the Renewal Option. The rights contained in this Section 3.4
shall be personal to the original Tenant executing this Lease (“Original Tenant”) or an
assignee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, and may only be exercised by the Original Tenant or an
assignee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer. All references in this Section 3.5 to “Tenant” shall
mean and refer to “Original Tenant” or a transferee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer.
3.5.1. The terms and conditions of this Lease during the Renewal Term shall be on the same terms,
covenants and conditions as provided for in this Lease during the initial Term, except that the
Base Rent rate per rentable square foot for the Premises during the Renewal Term shall equal the
Fair Market Rental Rate (hereinafter defined) per rentable square foot for the Premises, and Tenant
shall not be entitled to any tenant improvement allowance or any other concessions that may have
been applicable during the initial Term (except as otherwise may be included in the determination
of the Fair Market Rental Rate). Accordingly, for example, Tenant shall continue to pay Additional
Base Rent (i.e. Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes) for the Premises during the Renewal Term
in accordance with Article 5 of the Lease (except that the Base Year shall be the calendar year in
which the Renewal Term commences), but such payments shall be taken into account when determining
Fair Market Rental Rate as provided below.
3.5.2. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s Renewal Notice, Landlord shall advise
Tenant of Landlord’s estimate of the applicable Base Rent rate for the Premises for the Renewal
Term. Tenant, within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which Landlord advises Tenant of its
estimate of the applicable Base Rent rate for the Renewal Term, shall either (i) give Landlord
final binding written notice (“Binding Notice”) of Tenant’s exercise of its option, or (ii)
if Tenant disagrees with Landlord’s determination, provide Landlord with written notice of
rejection (the “Rejection Notice”) accompanied by Tenant’s determination of the Fair Market
Rental Rate (“Tenant’s Rent Determination”). If Tenant fails to provide Landlord with
either a Binding Notice or Rejection Notice within such ten (10) Business Day period, Tenant’s
Renewal Option shall be null and void and of no further force and effect. If Tenant provides
Landlord with a Binding Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into the Renewal
Amendment upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. If Tenant provides Landlord with a
Renewal Rejection Notice without a Tenant’s Rent Determination, Tenant’s Renewal Option shall be
null and void and of no further force and effect. If Tenant provides Landlord with a Rejection
Notice and Tenant’s Rent Determination, Landlord
-3-
and Tenant shall work together in good faith to
agree upon the Fair Market Rental Rate for Base Rent for the Premises during the Renewal Term.
Upon agreement, Tenant shall provide Landlord with Binding Notice and Landlord and Tenant shall
enter into the Renewal Amendment in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Fair Market
Rental Rate for Base Rent for the Premises within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which
Tenant provides Landlord with a Rejection Notice and Tenant’s Rent Determination, the provisions of
Section 3.4.3 below shall apply.
3.5.3. Within ten (10) days after the expiration of 10-Business Day period referenced in the last
sentence of Section 3.5.2 above, each party, by giving notice to the other party, shall appoint a
real estate appraiser who is a current member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers
or a licensed real estate broker, with at least ten (10) years of experience appraising or
assessing office space comparable to the Premises in the Aliso Viejo, Irvine Spectrum and Orange
County airport areas of Orange County, California to determine the Fair Market Rental Rate for Base
Rent. If the two (2) appraisers are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rental Rate for the Renewal
Term within twenty (20) days, they shall select a third appraiser or licensed broker meeting the
qualifications stated in this Section within five (5) days after the last day the two (2)
appraisers/brokers are given to set the Fair Market Rental Rate for the Renewal Term. The third
appraiser/broker, however selected, shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity
for either party. Within twenty (20) days after the selection of the third appraiser/broker, a
majority of the appraisers/brokers shall set the Fair Market Rental Rate for the Renewal Term. If
a majority of the appraisers/brokers is unable to set the Fair Market Rental Rate within the twenty
(20) day period, the two (2) closest appraisals/assessments shall be added together and their total
divided by two (2). The resulting quotient shall be the Fair Market Rental Rate for the Renewal
Term. Each party shall be responsible for the costs, charges and fees of the appraiser/broker
appointed by that party plus one-half of the cost of the third appraiser/broker. At any time
before the decision of an appraiser/broker is rendered, either party may, by written notice to the
other party, accept the rental terms submitted by the other party, in which event such terms shall
be deemed adopted as the agreed Fair Market Rental Rate. The fees of the appraiser(s)/broker(s)
shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant. Upon determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate
applicable to the Renewal Term, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into the Renewal Amendment upon the
terms and conditions so determined.
3.5.4. If Tenant is entitled to and properly exercises its Renewal Option, Landlord shall prepare
an amendment (the “Renewal Amendment”) to reflect changes in the Base Rent, Term,
Termination Date, Base Year (if applicable), tenant improvement allowance (if applicable), rent
abatement (if applicable), and other appropriate terms. The Renewal Amendment shall be sent to
Tenant within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Binding Notice. Tenant shall be entitled
to review same for compliance with this Lease. If accurate, Tenant shall execute and return the
Renewal Amendment to Landlord in the time frame required under this Section 3.5.
3.5.5. For purpose hereof, “Fair Market Rental Rate” shall mean the arms length fair market
annual rental rate per rentable square foot under new and renewal leases and amendments entered
into on or about the date on which the Fair Market Rental Rate is being determined hereunder for
space reasonably comparable to the Premises in the Aliso Viejo, Irvine Spectrum and Orange County
airport areas of Orange County, California (“Market Area”). The determination of Fair
Market Rental Rate shall take into account any material economic differences between the terms of
this Lease and any comparison lease, such as rent abatements, construction costs and other
concessions and the manner, if any, in which the landlord under any such lease is reimbursed for
operating expenses and taxes. The determination of Fair Market Rental Rate shall also take into
consideration any reasonably anticipated changes in the Fair Market Rental Rate from the time such
Fair Market Rental Rate is being determined and the time such Fair Market Rental Rate will become
effective under this Lease, such as increases in the Base Rent over the term of the Lease.
4. Rent. As consideration for this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord, without any setoff or
deduction, the total amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the Term. “Additional
Rent” means all sums (exclusive of Base Rent) that Tenant is required to pay Landlord.
Additional Rent and Base Rent are sometimes collectively referred to in this Lease as
“Rent”. Tenant shall pay and be liable for all rental, sales and use taxes (but excluding
income taxes), if any, imposed upon or measured by Rent under applicable Law. Base Rent and
recurring monthly charges of Additional Rent shall be due and payable in advance on the first day
of each calendar month without notice or demand, provided that the installment of Base Rent for the
first full calendar month of the Term (or, the initial month in which Base Rent is due if Tenant
has been provided with any right to free Base Rent during the first month or any subsequent month
of the Term) shall be payable upon the execution of this Lease by Tenant. All other items of Rent
shall be due and payable by Tenant on or before 30 days after billing by Landlord. All payments of
Rent shall be by good and sufficient check or by other means (such as automatic debit or electronic
transfer) acceptable to Landlord. If Tenant fails to pay any item or installment of Rent when due,
Tenant shall pay Landlord an administration fee equal to 5% of the past due Rent, provided that
Tenant shall be entitled to a grace period of 5 days for the first 2 late payments of Rent in a
given calendar year. If the Term commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month
or terminates on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the monthly Base Rent and
Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of any Real Estate Tax Excess (defined in Section 5.1 below) or Operating
Expense Excess (defined in Section 5.1 below) for the month shall be prorated based on the number
of days in such calendar month. 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 a check or payment shall be considered an accord and satisfaction,
and either party may accept the check or payment without prejudice to that party’s right to recover
the balance or pursue other available remedies. Tenant’s covenant to pay Rent is independent of
every other covenant in this Lease.
5. Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes.
5.1 Payment of Excess. Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the amount, if any, by
which Operating Expenses (defined in Section 5.2 below) for each calendar year during the Term
exceed Operating Expenses for the
-4-
Base Year (the “Operating Expense Excess”) and also the
amount, if any, by which Real Estate Taxes (defined in Section 5.3 below) for each calendar year
during the Term exceed Real Estate Taxes for the Base Year (the “Real Estate Tax Excess”).
Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to equitably allocate some or all of the
Operating Expenses among different tenants of the Building or Project (“Cost Pools”). Such
Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, Project-wide Operating Expenses (whether
incurred by reciprocal easement agreement, common area agreement or otherwise) and Building
specific expenses. If the Building is not at least 95% occupied during any calendar year or if
Landlord is not supplying services to at least 95% of the total rentable square footage of the
Building at any time during a calendar year, Operating Expenses shall be determined as if the
Building had been 95% occupied and Landlord had been supplying services to 95% of the rentable
square footage of the Building during that calendar year. If Tenant pays for its Pro Rata Share of
Operating Expenses based on increases over a “Base Year” and Operating Expenses for a calendar year
are determined as provided in the prior sentence, Operating Expenses for the Base Year shall also
be determined as if the Building had been 95% occupied and Landlord had been supplying services to
95% of the rentable square footage of the Building. The extrapolation of Operating Expenses under
this Section shall be performed by appropriately adjusting the cost of those components of
Operating Expenses that are impacted by changes in the occupancy of the Building. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, when calculating Operating Expenses for the Base Year, Operating Expenses shall not
include market-wide labor-rate increases due to extraordinary circumstances, including, but not
limited to, boycotts and strikes and utility rate increases due to extraordinary circumstances,
including, but not limited to, conservation surcharges, boycotts, embargoes or other shortages. If
Operating Expenses and/or Real Estate Taxes in any calendar year decrease below the amount of
Operating Expenses and/or Real Estate Taxes for the Base Year, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating
Expenses and/or Real Estate Taxes, as the case may be, for that calendar year shall be $0.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of
“Controllable Operating Expenses” (defined below) shall not increase by an average of more than
four percent (4%) per year during the original Term of this Lease. The foregoing is intended to
make the cap on increases to Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Controllable Operating Expenses cumulative
and compounding, such that unused cap space can be carried forward. For example, if Controllable
Operating Expenses only increase 3% in the first year, then they may increase 5% in the next year
before the cap has effect. For purposes hereof, the term “Controllable Operating Expenses”
shall mean all Operating Expenses, except the following: (i) premiums and deductibles paid by
Landlord for insurance, (ii) all utility fees, costs and charges, (iii) costs levied, assessed or
imposed by, or at the direction of, or resulting from statutes or regulations or interpretations
thereof promulgated by, any federal, state, regional, municipal or local governmental authority in
connection with the use or occupancy of the Building or the Project (including, without limitation,
real property taxes assessed against the Project), (iv) any costs or fees payable under contracts
in existence on the Commencement Date, to the extent fixed increases in such costs or fees have
already been agreed to, (v) capital expenditures permitted under (A) Section 5.2.8(a) below with
respect to those capital improvements made for emergency purposes, and (B) Section 5.2.8(b) below,
and (vi) labor wage increases, including, without limitation, increases in costs due to
unionization of previously non-union labor; provided, however, in the event of any such labor wage
increases, Landlord agrees to bid out such labor each calendar year during the Term in an effort to
reduce such costs to the extent Landlord reasonably deems appropriate.
5.2 Operating Expenses Defined. “Operating Expenses” means all costs and expenses
incurred in each calendar year in connection with operating, maintaining, repairing, and managing
the Building and the Project, including, but not limited to:
5.2.1. The cost of services, including amounts paid to service providers and the rental and
purchase cost of parts, supplies, tools and equipment.
5.2.2. Power Costs (defined below) and charges for water, gas, steam and sewer, but excluding those
charges for which Landlord is entitled to be reimbursed by tenants. “Power Costs” means:
(a) charges paid by Landlord for electricity; and (b) costs incurred in connection with an energy
management program for the Project. Power Costs shall be adjusted as follows: (i) amounts
received by Landlord as reimbursement for above standard electrical consumption shall be deducted
from Power Costs; (ii) the cost of electricity incurred to provide overtime HVAC to specific
tenants (as reasonably estimated by Landlord) shall be deducted from Power Costs; and (iii) if
Tenant is billed directly for the cost of building standard electricity to the Premises as a
separate charge in addition to Base Rent, the cost of electricity to individual tenant spaces in
the Building shall be deducted from Power Costs.
5.2.3. Labor costs, including, wages, salaries, social security and employment taxes, medical and
other types of insurance, uniforms, training, and retirement and pension plans.
5.2.4. Management fees, the cost of equipping and maintaining a management office, accounting and
bookkeeping services, legal fees not attributable to leasing or collection activity, and other
administrative costs. Landlord, by itself or through an affiliate, shall have the right to
directly perform or provide any services under this Lease (including management services), provided
that the cost of any such services shall not exceed the cost that would have been incurred had
Landlord entered into an arms-length contract for such services with an unaffiliated entity of
comparable skill and experience.
5.2.5. The cost of licenses, certificates, permits and inspections and the cost of contesting the
validity or applicability of any governmental enactments which may affect Operating Expenses, and
the costs incurred in connection with the implementation and operation of a transportation system
management program or similar program.
-5-
5.2.6. Fees, charges and other costs, including consulting fees, legal fees and accounting fees, of
all contractors engaged by Landlord or otherwise reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with
the management, operation, maintenance and repair of the Building and Project.
5.2.7. Premiums and deductibles paid by Landlord for insurance, including workers compensation,
fire and extended coverage, earthquake, general liability, rental loss, elevator, boiler and other
insurance customarily carried from time to time by owners of comparable office buildings.
5.2.8. The amortized cost of capital improvements (as distinguished from replacement parts or
components installed in the ordinary course of business) made to the Project which are: (a)
performed primarily to reduce operating expense costs or otherwise improve the operating efficiency
of the Project; or (b) required to comply with any Laws that are enacted, or first interpreted to
apply to the Project, after the date of this Lease. The cost of capital improvements shall be
amortized by Landlord over the lesser of the estimated period of time (as reasonably determined by
Landlord) that it takes for the cost savings resulting from a capital improvement to equal the
total cost of the capital improvement or the useful life of such capital improvement. The
amortized cost of capital improvements may, at Landlord’s option, include actual or imputed
interest at the rate that Landlord would reasonably be required to pay to finance the cost of the
capital improvement.
5.2.9. The payments charged against the Project under any existing and future easement, license,
operating agreement, declaration, restrictive covenant or other instrument pertaining to sharing of
costs by the Project.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operating Expenses shall not include: costs incurred in connection
with compliance with applicable laws, including, without limitation, the Americans with
Disabilities Act (the “ADA”), to the extent the Building or the Project is not in
compliance with such laws as of the Commencement Date; the cost of capital improvements (except as
set forth above); depreciation; interest (except as provided above for the amortization of capital
improvements); payments of mortgage, ground lease rent and other non-operating debts of Landlord;
the cost of repairs or other work to the extent Landlord is reimbursed by insurance or condemnation

associated with the creation and operation of the entity which constitutes Landlord; or any
penalties or damages that Landlord pays to Tenant under this Lease or to other tenants in the
Building under their respective leases; costs of defending any lawsuits with any mortgagee; costs
of selling, syndicating, financing, mortgaging or hypothecating any of Landlord’s interest in the
Project (or any part thereof); costs of any disputes between Landlord and its employees, disputes
of Landlord with building management, or fees paid in connection with disputes with other tenants,
invitees or adjacent property owners; costs of replacing defective equipment to the extent such
costs relate to items covered by warranties of manufacturers, suppliers or contractors or are
otherwise borne by parties other than Landlord and for which Landlord receives reimbursement; all
amounts which are specifically charged to or otherwise paid by any other tenant or other occupant
of the Building or the Project outside of operating expenses, or for items or services which
Landlord provides selectively to one or more tenants (other than Tenant) without reimbursement; any
bad debt loss, rent loss or reserves for bad debts, rent loss or future expenses; the salary and
indirect compensation (including, without limitation, all fringe benefits, workmen’s compensation,
insurance premiums and payroll taxes) of any employee above the grade of property manager or

wages and compensation shall be prorated in a manner reasonably determined by Landlord); the costs
of repair, replacement, or restoration work occasioned by any casualty or condemnation above the
deductible amount on the insurance policy for which Landlord is reimbursed via insurance proceeds
or condemnation proceeds; costs of any capital additions to or capital expansions of the Project;
and the cost of environmental monitoring, compliance, testing and remediation performed in, on,
about and around the Building or the Project; and any cost arising from Landlord’s charitable or
political contributions.
5.3 Real Estate Taxes Defined. “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean: (1) all real estate taxes
and other assessments on the Building and the Project, including, but not limited to, assessments
for special improvement districts and building improvement districts, taxes and assessments levied
in substitution or supplementation in whole or in part of any such taxes and assessments and the
Project’s share of any real estate taxes and assessments under any reciprocal easement agreement,
common area agreement or similar agreement as to the Project; (2) all personal property taxes for
property that is owned by Landlord and used in connection with the operation, maintenance and
repair of the Project; and (3) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and fees incurred in connection
with seeking reductions in any tax liabilities described in (1) and (2), including, without
limitation, any costs incurred by Landlord for compliance, review and appeal of tax liabilities.
Without limitation, Real Estate Taxes shall not include any income, capital levy, franchise,
capital stock, gift, estate or inheritance tax. If an assessment is payable in installments, such
assessment shall be paid over the longest period permitted by law and Real Estate Taxes for the
year shall include the amount of the installment and any interest due and payable during that year.
For all other real estate taxes, Real Estate Taxes for that year shall, at Landlord’s election,
include either the amount accrued, assessed or otherwise imposed for the year or the amount due and
payable for that year, provided that Landlord’s election shall be applied consistently throughout
the Term. If a change in Real Estate Taxes is obtained for any year of the Term during which
Tenant paid Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of any Real Estate Tax Excess, then Real Estate Taxes for that
year will be retroactively adjusted and Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit, if any, based
on the adjustment. Likewise, if a change is obtained for Real Estate Taxes for the Base Year, Real
Estate Taxes for the Base Year shall be restated and the Real Estate Tax Excess for all subsequent
years shall be recomputed. Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of any
such increase in the Real Estate Tax Excess within 30 days after Tenant’s receipt of a statement
from Landlord.
-6-
5.4 Estimate Statement; Payment. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a good faith estimate
of the Operating Expense Excess and of the Real Estate Tax Excess for each calendar year during the
Term. On or before the first day of each month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly installment
equal to one-twelfth of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Landlord’s estimate of the Operating Expense
Excess and one-twelfth of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Landlord’s estimate of the Real Estate Tax
Excess. If Landlord determines that its good faith estimate of the Operating Expense Excess or of
the Real Estate Tax Excess was incorrect by a material amount, Landlord may provide Tenant with a
revised estimate. After its receipt of the revised estimate, Tenant’s monthly payments shall be
based upon the revised estimate. If Landlord does not provide Tenant with an estimate of the
Operating Expense Excess or of the Real Estate Tax Excess by January 1 of a calendar year, Tenant
shall continue to pay monthly installments based on the previous year’s estimate(s) until Landlord
provides Tenant with the new estimate. Upon delivery of the new estimate, an adjustment shall be
made for any month for which Tenant paid monthly installments based on the previous year’s
estimate(s). Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any underpayment within 30 days after receipt
of the new estimate. At Landlord’s election, any overpayment shall be refunded to Tenant within 30
days or credited against the next due future installment(s) of Additional Rent.
5.5 Actual Operating Expenses and Taxes. As soon as is practical following the end of each
calendar year (and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such period of
time does not exceed 180 days), Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement of the actual
Operating Expenses and Operating Expense Excess and the actual Real Estate Taxes and Real Estate
Tax Excess for the prior calendar year. If the estimated Operating Expense Excess and/or estimated
Real Estate Tax Excess for the prior calendar year is more than the actual Operating Expense Excess
and/or actual Real Estate Tax Excess, as the case may be, for the prior calendar year, Landlord
shall apply any overpayment by Tenant against Additional Rent due or next becoming due, provided if
the Term expires before the determination of the overpayment, Landlord shall refund any overpayment
to Tenant after first deducting the amount of Rent due. If the estimated Operating Expense Excess
and/or estimated Real Estate Tax Excess for the prior calendar year is less than the actual
Operating Expense Excess and/or actual Real Estate Tax Excess, as the case may be, for such prior
year, Tenant shall pay Landlord, within 30 days after its receipt of the statement of Operating
Expenses and/or Real Estate Taxes, any underpayment for the prior calendar year.
5.6 Tenant Audit Rights. Tenant may, within 120 days after receiving Landlord’s statement
of Operating Expenses, give Landlord written notice (“Review Notice”) that Tenant intends
to review Landlord’s records of the Operating Expenses for that calendar year. Within 30 days
after receipt of the Review Notice, Landlord shall make all pertinent records available for
inspection that are reasonably necessary for Tenant to conduct its review. If any records are
maintained at a location other than the office of the Building, Tenant may either inspect the
records at such other location or pay for the reasonable cost of copying and shipping the records.
If Tenant retains an agent to review Landlord’s records, the agent must be a certified public
accountant. Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs, expenses and fees incurred for the
audit; provided, however, that if such audit establishes that the actual Operating Expenses for the
calendar year in question are less than the Landlord’s final determination of the Operating
Expenses as set forth in the Landlord’s statement submitted to Tenant by at least five percent
(5%), then Landlord shall pay the reasonable cost of such audit up to an amount not to exceed
Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of such overstatement. Within 60 days after the records are made available
to Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord written notice (an “Objection
Notice”) stating in reasonable detail any objection to Landlord’s statement of Operating
Expenses for that year. If Tenant fails to give Landlord an Objection Notice within the 60 day
period or fails to provide Landlord with a Review Notice within the 60 day period described above,
Tenant shall be deemed to have approved Landlord’s statement of Operating Expenses and shall be
barred from raising any claims regarding the Operating Expenses for that year. If Tenant provides
Landlord with a timely Objection Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to
resolve any issues raised in Tenant’s Objection Notice. If Landlord and Tenant determine that
Operating Expenses for the calendar year are less than reported, Landlord shall provide Tenant with
a credit against the next installment of Rent in the amount of the overpayment by Tenant.
Likewise, if Landlord and Tenant determine that Operating Expenses for the calendar year are
greater than reported, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any underpayment within 30 days.
The records obtained by Tenant shall be treated as confidential. In no event shall Tenant be
permitted to examine Landlord’s records or to dispute any statement of Operating Expenses unless
Tenant has paid and continues to pay all Rent when due.
6. Letter of Credit.
6.1 LC 1; General Provisions. Concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord, as collateral for the full performance by Tenant of all of its
obligations under this Lease and for all losses and damages Landlord may suffer as a result of any
default by Tenant under this Lease, including, but not limited to, any post lease termination
damages under section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code, a standby, irrevocable letter of credit
(“LC 1”), in the form of Exhibit I hereto (or in such other form acceptable to Landlord in
its sole discretion) and containing the terms required herein and in such Exhibit I, in the face
amount of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($750,000.00) (the “LC 1 Credit
Amount”), naming Landlord (or Landlord’s mortgagee as discussed in Section 6.5 below) as
beneficiary. The LC 1 shall be issued by a money-center, solvent and nationally recognized bank (a
bank which accepts deposits, maintains accounts, has a local office in Los Angeles or Orange
County, California) that will negotiate a letter of credit, whose Fitch Rating (or other comparable
ratings to the extent the Fitch Ratings are no longer available) is no less than B, and whose
deposits are insured by the FDIC. The issuing bank shall be acceptable to Landlord in Landlord’s
reasonable discretion, and shall permit multiple and partial draws on LC 1. Subject to the ongoing
satisfaction of the requirements of this Section 6, Landlord hereby approves Bank of America, a
national banking association, as the issuing bank of the Letter of Credit (hereafter defined) and
the form of Bank of America’s Letter of Credit (incorporating the hand-marked comments thereto)
attached hereto as Exhibit I — 1. Tenant shall cause the LC 1 to be continuously maintained in
effect (whether through replacement, renewal or extension) in the LC 1 Credit Amount (as the same
may be reduced as described in Section 6.5 below) through the date (the “Final LC Expiration
Date”) that is 60 days after the scheduled expiration date of the Term. If the LC 1 held by
Landlord expires earlier than the Final LC Expiration
-7-
Date (whether by reason of a stated expiration date or a notice of termination or non-renewal given
by the issuing bank), Tenant shall deliver a new LC 1 or certificate of renewal or extension to
Landlord not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the LC 1 then held by
Landlord. Any renewal or replacement LC 1 shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section
6.1, and shall remain in effect (whether through replacement, renewal or extension) in the LC 1
Credit Amount (as the same may be reduced as described in Subsection 6.5 below) through the Final
LC Expiration Date upon the same terms as the expiring LC 1 or such other terms as may be
acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. Tenant’s failure to timely deliver the LC 1 in the
LC 1 Credit Amount in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 6 of this Lease shall be
deemed an Event of Default (hereafter defined).
6.2 Drawings under Letter of Credit. As used in this Lease, the “Letter of Credit”
means, individually and collectively, LC 1, LC 2 (hereafter defined), LC 3 (hereafter defined), LC
4 (hereafter defined) and/or any replacement of any of the foregoing, and the “Letter of Credit
Amount” means, individually and collectively, LC 1 Credit Amount, LC 2 Credit Amount (hereafter
defined), LC 3 Credit Amount (hereafter defined) and the LC 4 Credit Amount (hereafter defined).
Landlord shall have the immediate right to draw up to the then-aggregate face amount of the Letter
of Credit, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time (each of the following being an
“L C Draw Event”): (i) If such amount is due to Landlord under the terms and conditions of
this Lease, beyond applicable notice and cure periods, including, without limitation, any amounts
due to Landlord for any and all damages incurred or to be incurred by Landlord or in connection
with any remedies afforded to Landlord as described in Section 6.3 below; or (ii) If the Letter of
Credit held by Landlord expires (or is set to expire) earlier than the Final LC Expiration Date
(whether by reason of a stated expiration date or a notice of termination or non-renewal given by
the issuing bank), and Tenant fails to deliver to Landlord, at least thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, a renewal or substitute Letter of
Credit that is in effect and that complies with the provisions of this Lease, including the amount
of the Letter of Credit required under this Lease; (iii) Tenant has filed a voluntary petition
under the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or any state bankruptcy code (collectively, “Bankruptcy
Code”), or (iv) an involuntary petition has been filed against Tenant under the Bankruptcy
Code; (v) Tenant is placed into receivership or conservatorship, or becomes subject to similar
proceedings under Federal or State law; (vi) Tenant executes an assignment for the benefit of
creditors; and/or (vii) if (1) any of the issuing bank’s Fitch Ratings (or other comparable ratings
to the extent the Fitch Ratings are no longer available) have been reduced below the ratings in
effect at the time the Letter of Credit was first issued, or (2) there is otherwise a material
adverse change in the financial condition of the issuing bank, and Tenant has failed to provide
Landlord with a replacement Letter of Credit that complies with the provisions of this Lease,
including the amount of the Letter of Credit required under this Lease, within ten (10) days
following Landlord’s written demand therefor (with no other notice or cure or grace period being
applicable thereto, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary). No condition or term
of this Lease shall be deemed to render the Letter of Credit conditional to justify the issuer of
the Letter of Credit in failing to honor a drawing upon such Letter of Credit in a timely manner.
In addition, in the event the issuing bank is placed into receivership or conservatorship by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any successor or similar entity (as applicable, the
“FDIC”), then, effective as of the date such receivership or conservatorship occurs, the
Letter of Credit shall be deemed to fail to meet the requirements of this Lease, and, within ten
(10) days following Landlord’s notice to Tenant of such receivership or conservatorship (the “L
C FDIC Replacement Notice”), Tenant shall replace the Letter of Credit with a substitute letter
of credit from a different issuer (which issuer shall be acceptable to Landlord in its sole
discretion) and that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Lease. If Tenant fails
to replace such Letter of Credit with such conforming, substitute letter of credit
pursuant to the
terms and conditions of this Section 6.2, then, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the
contrary, Landlord shall have the right to declare Tenant in default of this Lease for which there
shall be no notice or grace or cure periods being applicable thereto (other than the aforesaid ten
(10) day period). Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any and all costs incurred with
the review of any replacement Letter of Credit (including without limitation Landlord’s reasonable
attorneys’ fees), which replacement is required pursuant to this Section or is otherwise requested
by Tenant.
6.3 Use of Proceeds by Landlord. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is
entering into this Lease in material reliance upon the ability of Landlord to draw upon the Letter
of Credit upon the occurrence of any L C Draw Event. Upon the occurrence of any L C Draw Event,
Landlord may, but without obligation to do so, and without notice to Tenant, draw upon the Letter
of Credit, in part or in whole, to cure any such L C Draw Event and/or to compensate Landlord for
any and all damages of any kind or nature sustained or which Landlord reasonably estimates that it
will sustain resulting from Tenant’s breach or default of the Lease or other L C Draw Event and/or
to compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the
termination of this Lease, including, without limitation, those specifically identified in Section
1951.2 of the California Civil Code. The use, application or retention of the Letter of Credit, or
any portion thereof, by Landlord shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or
remedy provided by this Lease or by any applicable law, it being intended that Landlord shall not
first be required to proceed against the Letter of Credit, and such Letter of Credit shall not
operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Tenant agrees
not to interfere in any way with payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the Letter of Credit,
either prior to or following a “draw” by Landlord of any portion of the Letter of Credit,
regardless of whether any dispute exists between Tenant and Landlord as to Landlord’s right to draw
upon the Letter of Credit. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the Letter
of Credit conditional to justify the issuer of the Letter of Credit in failing to honor a drawing
upon such Letter of Credit in a timely manner. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that (i) the Letter
of Credit constitutes a separate and independent contract between Landlord and the issuing bank,
(ii) Tenant is not a third party beneficiary of such contract, (iii) Tenant has no property
interest whatsoever in the Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof, and (iv) in the event Tenant
becomes a debtor under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant is placed into receivership or
conservatorship, and/or there is an event of a receivership, conservatorship or a bankruptcy filing
by, or on behalf of, Tenant, neither Tenant, any trustee, nor Tenant’s bankruptcy estate shall have
any right to restrict or limit Landlord’s claim and/or rights to the Letter of Credit and/or the
proceeds thereof by application of Section 502(b)(6) of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.
-8-
6.4 Transfer and Encumbrance. Landlord may, at any time and without notice to Tenant and
without first obtaining Tenant’s consent thereto, transfer all or any portion of its interest in
and to the Letter of Credit to another party, person or entity, including Landlord’s mortgagee
and/or to have the Letter of Credit reissued in the name of Landlord’s mortgagee. If Landlord
transfers its interest in the Building and transfers the Letter of Credit (or any proceeds thereof
then held by Landlord) in whole or in part to the transferee, Landlord shall, without any further
agreement between the parties hereto, thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability therefor.
The provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment of all or any part of the Letter
of Credit to a new landlord. In connection with any such transfer of the Letter of Credit by
Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, execute and submit to the issuer of the
Letter of Credit such applications, documents and instruments as may be necessary to effectuate
such transfer. Tenant shall be responsible for paying the issuer’s transfer and processing fees in
connection with any transfer of the Letter of Credit and, if Landlord advances any such fees
(without having any obligation to do so), Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any such transfer or
processing fees within ten days after Landlord’s written request therefor.
6.5 Reductions in Letter of Credit Amount. The Letter of Credit Amount may be reduced as
follows:
6.5.1. Operating Income Threshold Reduction for the Letter of Credit Amount. Subject to
the provisions of this Section 6.5.1 and provided that Tenant has not been in default (beyond
applicable notice and cure periods) at any time during the Term, Tenant shall be entitled to reduce
the then amount of the Letter of Credit Amount to the amount of Seventy-Seven Thousand Eight
Hundred Seventy-Five and 92/100 Dollars ($77,875.92) (the “LC 2 Credit Amount”) effective
as of the last day of the month following its satisfaction of the Operating Income Threshold, as
provided below. The “Operating Income Threshold” shall mean that Tenant has attained an
operating income (which, for purposes of this Lease, shall mean Tenant’s earnings before interest
and taxes) of $1,000,000.00 or better for each quarter over any four (4) consecutive quarter
period, as determined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). If Tenant
believes it is entitled to reduce the then amount of the Letter of Credit Amount to the LC 2 Credit
Amount as provided in this Section 6.5.1 based upon the attainment of the Operating Income
Threshold, Tenant shall provide to Landlord complete, audited financial statements, to substantiate
that the Operating Income Threshold has been attained. In the event Tenant is eligible to reduce
the Letter of Credit Amount to the LC 2 Credit Amount as provided in this Section 6.5.1, Landlord
shall execute any documents reasonably requested by Tenant and the issuing bank to effectuate the
applicable reduction in the Letter of Credit Amount, within fifteen (15) days after Tenant submits
such documents to Landlord for execution provided Tenant is not in default under this Lease (beyond
applicable notice and cure periods). The Letter of Credit held by Landlord for the LC 2 Credit
Amount in accordance with this Section 6.5.1 shall be referred to in this Lease as the “LC 2”, and
such LC 2 shall be subject to all of the terms of this Article 6 and shall satisfy the requirements
set forth in Section 6.1 above (excluding the provisions in Section 6.1 relating to the LC 1 Credit
Amount).
6.5.2. Cap Reduction for the LC 1. Subject to the provisions of this Section 6.5.2 and
provided that (i) all of the costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with
constructing the Tenant Improvements (the “Actual TI Costs”) are less than the amount of
the Cap (as such term is defined in the Work Letter; such Cap amount being $1,449,910.00) and (ii)
Tenant has not been in default or breach of any provision of this Lease beyond any applicable
notice and cure period at any time prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant shall be entitled to
reduce the LC 1 Credit Amount by the amount equal to the difference between the Cap amount and the
Actual TI Costs (such reduced amount shall be referred to as the “LC 3 Credit Amount”)
effective as of the last day of the month following the Commencement Date. For example, and
serving as an example only, if the Actual TI Costs are $1,400,000.00, then the LC 3 Credit Amount
shall be $700,090.00 (i.e., the LC 1 Amount of $750,000.00 less the $49,910.00 difference between
Actual TI Costs and the Cap). If Tenant is entitled to reduce the LC 1 Credit Amount to the LC 3
Credit Amount as provided in this Section 6.5.2 based upon the Actual TI Costs being less than the
amount of the Cap, Landlord shall execute any documents reasonably requested by Tenant and the
issuing bank to effectuate the applicable reduction in the LC 1 Credit Amount, within fifteen (15)
days after Tenant submits such documents to Landlord for execution provided Tenant is not in
default under this Lease (beyond applicable notice and cure periods). The Letter of Credit held by
Landlord for the LC 3 Credit Amount in accordance with this Section 6.5.2 shall be referred to in
this Lease as the “LC 3”, and such LC 3 shall be subject to all of the terms of this Article 6 and
shall satisfy the requirements set forth in Section 6.1 above (excluding the provisions in Section
6.1 relating to the LC 1 Credit Amount).
6.5.3. Rent Reduction for the Letter of Credit Amount. Subject to the provisions of this
Section 6.5.3 and provided that Tenant has not been in default or breach of any provision of this
Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period at any time prior to the expiration of the
twenty-fifth (25th) month of the Term, Tenant shall be entitled to reduce the then
amount of the Letter of Credit Amount to the amount of Three Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand and
00/100 Dollars ($375,000.00) (the “LC 4 Credit Amount”) effective as of the last day of the
twenty-sixth (26th) month of the Term. If Tenant is entitled to reduce the Letter of
Credit Amount to the LC 4 Credit Amount as provided in this Section 6.5.3 based upon Tenant not
having been in default or breach of any provision of this Lease beyond any applicable notice and
cure period at any time prior to the expiration of the twenty-fifth (25th) month of the
Term, Landlord shall execute any documents reasonably requested by Tenant and the issuing bank to
effectuate the applicable reduction in the Letter of Credit Amount, within fifteen (15) days after
Tenant submits such documents to Landlord for execution provided Tenant is not in default under
this Lease (beyond applicable notice and cure periods). The Letter of Credit held by Landlord for
the LC 4 Credit Amount in accordance with this Section 6.5.3 shall be referred to in this Lease as
the “LC 4”, and such LC 4 shall be subject to all of the terms of this Article 6 and shall satisfy
the requirements set forth in Section 6.1 above (excluding the provisions in Section 6.1 relating
to the LC 1 Credit Amount). Furthermore, subject to the provisions of this Section 6.5.3 and
provided that Tenant has not been in default or breach of any provision of this Lease beyond any
applicable notice and cure period at any time prior to the expiration of the thirty-seventh
(37th) month of the Term, Tenant shall be entitled to reduce the then amount of the
Letter of Credit Amount to the LC 2 Credit Amount effective as of the last day of the thirty-eighth
(38th) month of the Term. In the event Tenant is eligible to reduce the Letter of
Credit Amount to the LC 2
-9-
Credit Amount as provided in this Section 6.5.3, Landlord shall execute any documents reasonably
requested by Tenant and the issuing bank to effectuate the applicable reduction in the Letter of
Credit Amount, within fifteen (15) days after Tenant submits such documents to Landlord for
execution provided Tenant is not in default under this Lease (beyond applicable notice and cure
periods). The Letter of Credit held by Landlord for the LC 2 Credit Amount in accordance with this
Section 6.5.3 shall be referred to in this Lease as the “LC 2”, and such LC 2 shall be subject to
all of the terms of this Article 6 and shall satisfy the requirements set forth in Section 6.1
above (excluding the provisions in Section 6.1 relating to the LC 1 Credit Amount).
6.6 Termination of Letter of Credit. Subject to the provisions of this Section 6.6 and
provided that Tenant has surrenders possession of the Premises to Landlord in accordance with this
Lease and there are no uncured defaults under the Lease, then Tenant shall be entitled to terminate
the Letter of Credit following the expiration of the Term effective as of the Final LC Expiration
Date and Landlord shall return the Letter of Credit to Tenant. To that end, Landlord shall execute
any documents reasonably requested by Tenant and the issuing bank to effectuate such termination of
the Letter of Credit, within fifteen (15) days after Tenant submits such documents to Landlord for
execution provided there are no uncured defaults under this Lease.
6.7 Nature of Letter of Credit. Landlord and Tenant (1) acknowledge and agree that in no
event or circumstance shall the Letter of Credit or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or
any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” under any Law applicable to
security deposits in the commercial context including Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code,
as such section now exists or as may be hereafter amended or succeeded (“Security Deposit
Laws”), (2) acknowledge and agree that the Letter of Credit (including any renewal thereof or
substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit, and
the Security Deposit Laws shall have no applicability or relevancy thereto, and (3) waive any and
all rights, duties and obligations either party may now or, in the future, will have relating to or
arising from the Security Deposit Laws.
7. Services to be Furnished by Landlord.
7.1 Utilities. Landlord agrees to furnish Tenant with the following services: (1) Hot and
cold water service for use in the Premises and the lavatories on each floor on which the Premises
are located; (2) Heat and air conditioning in season during Normal Business Hours, at such
temperatures and in such amounts as are standard for comparable buildings or as required by
governmental authority. Tenant shall have the right to receive HVAC service during hours other
than Normal Business Hours using Landlord’s “after-hours” access card system. Tenant shall pay
Landlord the standard charge for the additional service as reasonably determined by Landlord from
time to time, which is currently $50.00 per hour for the Premises (subject to adjustment as
Landlord reasonably determines); (3) Maintenance and repair of the Project as described in Section
10.2 below; (4) Janitor service five (5) days per week (except on dates of the observation of
Holidays). If Tenant’s use, floor covering or other improvements require special services in
excess of the standard services for the Building, Tenant shall pay the additional cost attributable
to the special services; (5) Elevator service on a 24-hours a day, seven days a week basis; (6)
Electricity to the Premises for general office use, in accordance with and subject to the terms and
conditions in Section 8.1 below; and (7) such other services as Landlord reasonably determines are
necessary or appropriate for the Project.
7.2 Additional Telecommunication Services. Upon Tenant’s request, Tenant shall be entitled
to access to approximately 1.5 megabits per second of bandwidth to the Premises from a single point
of connection, at no charge to Tenant during the initial Term of this Lease. The single point of
connection to the Premises shall be determined by Landlord and the applicable telecommunication
provider. Tenant shall be obligated to arrange and pay for all switches and Network Cabling (as
defined in Section 10.1 below) that Tenant may need for its use of or access to such bandwidth in
the Premises, and Tenant shall also be responsible to pay for any additional or different services
it may choose to order from such provider(s). Upon request from time to time, Landlord will
provide Tenant with a listing of telecommunications and media service providers serving the
Building, and Tenant shall have the right to contract directly with the providers of its choice.
If Tenant wishes to contract with or obtain service from any provider which does not currently
serve the Building or wishes to obtain from an existing carrier services which will require the
installation of additional equipment, such provider must, prior to providing service, enter into a
written agreement with Landlord setting forth the terms and conditions of the access to be granted
to such provider. In considering the installation of any new or additional telecommunications
cabling or equipment at the Building, Landlord will consider all relevant factors in a reasonable
and non-discriminatory manner, including, without limitation, the existing availability of services
at the Building, the impact of the proposed installations upon the Building and its operations and
the available space and capacity for the proposed installations. Landlord may also consider
whether the proposed service may result in interference with or interruption of other services at
the Building or other portions of the Project or the business operations of other tenants or
occupants of the Building and Project. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to incur any costs
or liabilities in connection with the installation or delivery of telecommunication services or
facilities at the Building. All installations and alterations shall be subject to Landlord’s prior
written approval and shall be performed in accordance with the terms of Section 10.3 (Alterations)
and the Site Technical and Cabling Standards attached hereto as Exhibit G. If Landlord approves
the proposed installations in accordance with the foregoing, Landlord will deliver its standard
form agreement upon request and will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly enter into an
agreement on reasonable and non-discriminatory terms with a qualified, licensed and reputable
carrier confirming the terms of installation and operation of telecommunications equipment
consistent with the foregoing.
7.3 Interruption of Service. Landlord’s failure to furnish, or any interruption or
termination of, services due to the application of Laws, the failure of any equipment, the
performance of repairs, improvements or alterations, or the occurrence of any event or cause beyond
the reasonable control of Landlord (a “Service Failure”), including (without limitation)
any Service Failure associated with the bandwidth services described in Section 7.2 above, shall
not render Landlord liable to Tenant, constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant, give rise to an
abatement of Rent,
-10-
nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement. However, if the
Premises, or a material portion of the Premises, is made untenantable for a period in excess of 3
consecutive Business Days as a result of the Service Failure that is a result of Landlord’s
negligence, then Tenant, as its sole remedy, shall be entitled to receive an abatement of Rent
payable hereunder during the period beginning on the expiration of such 3 Business Day period of
the Service Failure and ending on the day the service has been restored. If the entire Premises
has not been rendered untenantable by the Service Failure, the amount of abatement that Tenant is
entitled to receive shall be prorated based upon the percentage of the Premises rendered
untenantable and not used by Tenant. In no event, however, shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for
any loss or damage, direct or indirect, special or consequential, including loss of business or
theft of Tenant’s Property (defined in Section 14 below), arising out of or in connection with the
failure of any security services, personnel or equipment.
8. Use of Electrical Services by Tenant.
8.1 Normal Electrical Usage. The Building has been designed to accommodate electrical
receptacle (120/208v) loads of seven (7) xxxxx per usable square foot. To the extent the Premises
are engineered for receptacle loads in excess of seven (7) xxxxx per usable square foot, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord a one-time transformer upgrade fee of $0.12 per usable square foot per watt
in excess of seven (7) xxxxx. Said charge shall be due and payable at the time working drawings
are approved by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Work Letter and will be calculated to one-tenth
(0.1) of a watt. Electricity used by Tenant in the Premises shall be included in Operating
Expenses as set forth in Section 5.1 above (except as provided in Section 8.2 for excess usage).
Electrical service to the Premises may be furnished by one or more companies providing electrical
generation, transmission and distribution services, and the cost of electricity may consist of
several different components or separate charges for such services, such as generation,
distribution and stranded cost charges. Landlord shall have the exclusive right to select any
company providing electrical service to the Premises, to aggregate the electrical service for the
Project and Premises with other buildings, to purchase electricity through a broker and/or buyers
group and to change the providers and manner of purchasing electricity.
8.2 Excess Usage. Tenant’s use of electrical service shall not exceed, either in voltage,
rated capacity, use beyond Normal Business Hours or overall load, that which Landlord, in its
discretion, deems to be standard for the Building. If Tenant requests permission to consume excess
electrical service, Landlord may refuse to consent or may condition consent upon conditions that
Landlord reasonably elects (including, without limitation, the installation of utility service
upgrades, meters, submeters, air handlers or cooling units), and the additional usage (to the
extent permitted by Law), installation and maintenance costs shall be paid by Tenant. Landlord
shall have the right to separately meter or submeter electrical usage for the Premises and to
measure electrical usage by survey or other commonly accepted methods.
9. Use; Compliance with Laws; Occupancy Level.
9.1 Use; Compliance with Laws. The Premises shall be used only for the Permitted Use and
for no other use whatsoever. Tenant shall not use or permit the use of the Premises for any
purpose which is illegal, dangerous to persons or property or which, in Landlord’s reasonable
opinion, unreasonably disturbs any other tenants of the Building or interferes with the operation
of the Building. Tenant shall comply with all Laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act,
regarding the operation of Tenant’s business and the use, condition, configuration and occupancy of
the Premises. Tenant, within 10 days after receipt, shall provide Landlord with copies of any
notices it receives regarding a violation or alleged violation of any Laws. Tenant shall comply
with the rules and regulations of the Building attached as Exhibit B and such other reasonable
rules and regulations adopted by Landlord from time to time and with all recorded covenants,
conditions and restrictions now or hereafter affecting the Building or the Project (collectively,
“CC&Rs”). Tenant shall also cause its agents, contractors, subcontractors, employees,
customers, and subtenants to comply with all rules and regulations and CC&Rs. Landlord shall not
knowingly discriminate against Tenant in Landlord’s enforcement of the rules and regulations.
Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to execute and acknowledge, within 15 days of
request by Landlord, a “Recognition of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions” in a form
substantially similar to the Form attached hereto as Exhibit F, agreeing to and acknowledging the
CC&Rs.
9.2 Occupancy Level. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Premises is
designed for a maximum occupancy level of four (4) persons per one thousand (1,000) rentable square
feet of space comprising the Premises (the “Occupancy Threshold”). Tenant therefore covenants and
agrees that the number of persons occupying the Premises shall not exceed the Occupancy Threshold
at any given time during any day of the week. Tenant acknowledges further that Tenant’s parking
privileges hereunder are expressly limited to the parking spaces specified in the Parking Agreement
attached hereto as Exhibit E and Tenant shall limit the occupancy of the Building so as to not
utilize more than the number of parking spaces permitted in the Parking Agreement, unless Tenant
implements measures reasonably satisfactory to Landlord (e.g., securing additional offsite parking,
carpooling or rotational shifts) to ensure that Tenant does not utilize more than its allotted
parking spaces under the Parking Agreement. If Landlord at any time determines (in its reasonable
but sole discretion) that the Occupancy Threshold is being exceeded on a day-to-day basis or that
the parking spaces are being exceeded on a day-to-day basis, Landlord shall notify Tenant and
Tenant shall have 10 business days to reduce the occupancy level to below the Occupancy Threshold
(as respects occupancy in the Premises) or reduce the number of parking spaces being used (as
respects parking usage). If the Premises occupancy level remains in excess of the Occupancy
Threshold (as respects occupancy) or remains in excess of the permitted parking spaces as of the
10th business day following the date of Landlord’s notice, Tenant shall automatically be deemed in
default of this Lease and Landlord shall be entitled to exercise any and all remedies set forth in
this Lease or at law or in equity by reason of such default. Tenant shall be solely responsible
for the fees, costs and expenses for any and all improvements, alterations or additions required to
be made by any governmental authority or other third party to the Premises, the Building, the
Common Areas and/or the Project resulting from any use of the Premises by Tenant in excess of the
Occupancy
-11-
Threshold regardless of when imposed by
any such party and regardless of whether or not the improvement, alteration or addition is of a
capital nature (hereinafter, an “Additional Occupancy Cost”). Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord within 20 days of written demand for any Additional Occupancy Cost.
10. Repairs and Alterations.
10.1 Tenant’s Repair Obligations. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly
perform all maintenance and repairs to the Premises that are not Landlord’s express responsibility
under this Lease, and shall keep the Premises in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and
tear and damage by fire or other casualty that is subject to Section 17 below or not caused by
Tenant excepted. Tenant’s repair obligations include, without limitation, repairs to: (1) the
interior side of demising walls; (2) doors; (3) floor covering; (4) interior partitions; (5)
electronic, phone and data cabling and related switches and transmission lines (collectively,
“Network Cabling”) that is installed by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant and located
in the Premises or other portions of the Building; (6) supplemental air conditioning units, private
showers and kitchens, including hot water heaters, plumbing, and similar facilities serving Tenant
exclusively (it being agreed that Tenant shall provide Landlord with written copies of all
maintenance contracts for such work); and (7) Alterations performed by contractors retained by
Tenant, including related HVAC balancing. All work shall be performed in accordance with the rules
and procedures described in Section 10.3 below. If Tenant fails to make any repairs to the
Premises for more than 15 days after notice from Landlord (although notice shall not be required if
there is an emergency), Landlord may make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost of
the repairs to Landlord within 30 days after receipt of an invoice, together with an administrative
charge in an amount equal to 10% of the cost of the repairs.
10.2 Landlord’s Repair Obligations. Landlord shall keep and maintain in good repair and
working order and make repairs to and perform maintenance upon: (1) structural elements of the
Building; (2) mechanical (including HVAC), electrical, plumbing and fire/life safety systems
serving the Building in general; (3) Common Areas; (4) the roof of the Building; (5) exterior
windows of the Building; (6) elevators serving the Building; and (7) lighting fixtures (i.e., lamp
and ballasts) within the Premises. Landlord shall promptly make repairs (considering the nature
and urgency of the repair) for which Landlord is responsible. Tenant hereby waives any and all
rights under and benefits of subsection 1 of Section 1932, and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the
California Civil Code, or any similar or successor Laws now or hereinafter in effect.
10.3 Alterations. All improvements to the Premises (collectively, “Tenant
Improvements”) shall be owned by Landlord and shall remain upon the Premises without
compensation to Tenant. Tenant shall not make alterations, additions or improvements to the
Premises or install any Network Cabling in the Premises or other portions of the Building
(collectively referred to as “Alterations”) without first obtaining the written consent of
Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Landlord’s
consent shall not be required for any Alteration that satisfies all of the following criteria (a
“Minor Alteration”): (1) is not visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building; (2)
will not affect the systems or structure of the Building; (3) is of a cosmetic nature such as
painting, wallpapering, hanging pictures and installing carpeting; and (4) does not require work to
be performed inside the walls or above the ceiling of the Premises. Even though consent is not
required, the performance of Minor Alterations shall be subject to all the other provisions of this
Section 10.3. Regardless of whether Landlord’s consent is required to an Alteration, prior to
starting work, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with plans and specifications reasonably acceptable to
Landlord; names of contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord (provided that Landlord may
designate specific contractors with respect to Building systems); copies of contracts; necessary
permits and approvals; evidence of contractor’s and subcontractor’s insurance in amounts reasonably
required by Landlord; and any security for performance that is reasonably required by Landlord.
Changes to the plans and specifications must also be submitted to Landlord for its approval.
Alterations shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner using materials of a quality that
is at least equal to the quality designated by Landlord as the minimum standard for the Building.
Landlord may designate reasonable rules, regulations and procedures for the performance of work in
the Building and, to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid disruption to the occupants of the
Building, shall have the right to designate the time when Alterations may be performed. Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord within 30 days after receipt of an invoice for sums paid by Landlord for
third party examination of Tenant’s plans for non-Minor Alterations. In addition, within 30 days
after receipt of an invoice from Landlord, Tenant shall pay Landlord a fee for Landlord’s oversight
and coordination of any non-Minor Alterations equal to 5% of the cost of the non-Minor Alterations
that are more than $100,000.00 but less than $250,000.00 and 3% of the cost of the non-minor
Alterations that are in excess of $250,000.00. Upon completion, Tenant shall furnish “as-built”
plans (except for Minor Alterations), completion affidavits, full and final waivers of lien in
recordable form, and receipted bills covering all labor and materials. Tenant shall assure that
the Alterations comply with all insurance requirements and Laws. Landlord’s approval of an
Alteration shall not be a representation by Landlord that the Alteration complies with applicable
Laws or will be adequate for Tenant’s use. Any Alterations installed in the Premises may remain in
the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, except (1) if upon providing
approval of the Alteration Landlord delivers Tenant written notice that such Alteration must be
removed upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, or (2) if Landlord’s consent is
not required to an Alteration, Landlord gives written notice to Tenant within 30 days of receiving
written notice of such Alteration, that such Alteration must be removed upon the expiration or
earlier termination of the Lease.
11. Liens. Tenant shall not permit mechanic’s or other liens to be placed upon the Project,
Premises or Tenant’s leasehold interest in connection with any work or service done or purportedly
done by or for benefit of Tenant. If a lien is so placed, Tenant shall, within 10 days of notice
from Landlord of the filing of the lien, fully discharge the lien by settling the claim which
resulted in the lien or by bonding or insuring over the lien in the
manner prescribed by the applicable lien Law. If Tenant fails to discharge the lien, then, in
addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may bond or insure over the lien or
otherwise discharge the lien. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any amount paid by Landlord to
bond or insure over the lien or discharge the lien,
-12-
including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law) within 30 days after receipt of an invoice
from Landlord.
12. Entry by Landlord. Landlord, its agents, contractors and representatives may enter the
Premises to inspect or show the Premises, to clean and make repairs, alterations or additions to
the Premises, and to conduct or facilitate repairs, alterations or additions to any portion of the
Building, including other tenants’ premises. Except in emergencies or to provide janitorial and
other Building services after Normal Business Hours, Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable
prior notice of entry into the Premises, which may be given orally. If reasonably necessary for
the protection and safety of Tenant and its employees, Landlord shall have the right to temporarily
close all or a portion of the Premises to perform repairs, alterations and additions. However,
except in emergencies, Landlord will not close the Premises if the work can reasonably be completed
on weekends and after Normal Business Hours. Entry by Landlord shall not constitute constructive
eviction or entitle Tenant to an abatement or reduction of Rent.
13. Assignment and Subletting.
13.1 Transfer. Except in connection with a Permitted Transfer (defined in Section 13.4
below), Tenant shall not assign, sublease, transfer or encumber any interest in this Lease or allow
any third party to use any portion of the Premises (collectively or individually, a
“Transfer”) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld if Landlord does not elect to exercise its termination rights under Section
13.2 below. Without limitation, it is agreed that Landlord’s consent shall not be considered
unreasonably withheld if: (1) in connection with a proposed assignment, the proposed assignee’s
financial condition does not meet the criteria Landlord uses to select Building tenants having
similar leasehold obligations or the proposed assignee does not have an adequate financial worth
and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities involved under the Lease on the date
the consent is requested; (2) the proposed transferee’s business would result in a violation of
another tenant’s rights; (3) the proposed transferee is a governmental agency or occupant of the
Building or Project; (4) Tenant is in default after the expiration of the notice and cure periods
in this Lease; (5) any portion of the Building or Premises would likely become subject to
additional or different Laws as a consequence of the proposed Transfer; (6) would permit a use that
could subject Landlord to a violation of any exclusive use right granted to another tenant of the
Building or Project; or (7) either the proposed transferee, or any person or entity which directly
or indirectly, controls, is controlled by or under common control with, the proposed transferee (a)
occupies space in the Project at the time of the request for consent, (b) is negotiating with
Landlord to lease space in the Project at such time, or (c) has negotiated with Landlord during the
six (6)-month period prior to Landlord’s receipt of the request for consent, and in any case
Landlord has comparable sized-space in the Project available for such tenant to lease. Tenant
hereby waives the provisions of Section 1995.310 of the California Civil Code, or any similar or
successor Laws, now or hereinafter in effect, and all other remedies, including, without
limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the
extent permitted under all applicable Laws, on behalf of the proposed transferee. Any attempted
Transfer in violation of this Section shall, at Landlord’s option, be void. Consent by Landlord to
one or more Transfer(s) shall not operate as a waiver of Landlord’s rights to approve any
subsequent Transfers. In no event shall any Transfer or Permitted Transfer release or relieve
Tenant from any obligation under this Lease. Except as provided below with respect to a Permitted
Transfer, if Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or similar entity,
and if the entity which owns or controls a majority of the voting shares/rights at any time changes
for any reason (including but not limited to a merger, consolidation or reorganization), such
change of ownership or control shall constitute a Transfer for purposes of this Lease. The
foregoing shall not apply so long as Tenant is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a
recognized security exchange, or if at least 80% of its voting stock is owned by another entity,
the voting stock of which is so listed.
13.2 Transfer Request. As part of its request for Landlord’s consent to a Transfer, other
than in connection with a Permitted Transfer, Tenant shall provide Landlord with financial
statements for the proposed transferee, a complete copy of the proposed assignment, sublease and
other contractual documents and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request.
Landlord shall, by written notice to Tenant within 15 days of its receipt of the required
information and documentation, either: (1) consent to the Transfer by the execution of a consent
agreement in a form reasonably designated by Landlord or reasonably refuse to consent to the
Transfer in writing; or (2) exercise its right to terminate this Lease with respect to the portion
of the Premises that Tenant is proposing to assign or sublet, provided that, with respect to any
sublease, only if the term of such sublease is for substantially the remaining Term of this Lease.
Any such termination shall be effective on the proposed effective date of the Transfer for which
Tenant requested consent. Tenant shall pay Landlord a review fee of $500.00 plus the reasonable
attorneys’ fees for Landlord’s review of any Permitted Transfer or requested Transfer.
13.3 Excess Consideration. Other than in connection with a Permitted Transfer, Tenant
shall pay Landlord 50% of all rent and other consideration which Tenant receives as a result of a
Transfer that is in excess of the Rent payable to Landlord for the portion of the Premises and Term
covered by the Transfer. Tenant shall pay Landlord for Landlord’s share of any excess within 30
days after Tenant’s receipt of such excess consideration. Tenant may deduct from the excess all
reasonable and customary expenses directly incurred by Tenant attributable to the Transfer (other
than Landlord’s review fee), including brokerage fees, legal fees and construction costs. If
Tenant is in Monetary Default (defined in Section 19.1 below), Landlord may require that all
sublease payments be made directly to Landlord, in which case Tenant shall receive a credit against
Rent in the amount of any payments received (less Landlord’s share of any excess).
13.4 Permitted Transfer. Tenant may assign its entire interest under this Lease or
sublease the Premises to a Permitted Transferee (defined below) without the consent of Landlord,
provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied (a “Permitted Transfer”): (1)
Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods; (2) Tenant’s
successor shall be (i) an entity resulting from a merger or consolidation of Tenant, (ii) an
-13-
entity
succeeding in the business operations of Tenant which owns all or substantially all of the assets
of Tenant, or (iii) the parent of, a subsidiary of or an affiliate controlled by Tenant, provided
that any entity under clauses (i) and (ii) shall have a net worth which is at least equal to
Tenant’s net worth as of the day prior to the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or
reorganization; (3) the Permitted Use is not changed; and (4) Tenant shall give Landlord written
notice at least 30 days prior to the effective date of the proposed assignment or sublease to a
Permitted Transferee, or if such transfer is subject to confidentiality requirements, within 10
days after such transfer. The transferee of Tenant’s interest in this Lease pursuant to a
Permitted Transfer is hereafter known as “Permitted Transferee”. Tenant’s notice to
Landlord shall include information and documentation 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.
14. Insurance. Tenant shall carry and maintain the following insurance (“Tenant’s
Insurance”), at its sole cost and expense: (1) Commercial General Liability Insurance
applicable to the Premises and its appurtenances providing, on an occurrence basis, a minimum
combined single limit of $2,000,000.00; (2) All Risk Property Insurance written at replacement cost
value and with a replacement cost endorsement covering all of Tenant’s trade fixtures, equipment,
furniture and other personal property within the Premises (“Tenant’s Property”); (3)
Workers’ Compensation Insurance as required by the state in which the Premises is located and in
amounts as may be required by applicable statute; (4) Employers Liability Coverage of at least
$1,000,000.00 per occurrence; and (5) Business interruption or loss of income insurance in amounts
sufficient to insure Tenant’s business operations for a period of not less than one (1) year. Any
company writing any of Tenant’s Insurance shall have an A.M. Best rating of not less than A-VIII.
All Commercial General Liability Insurance policies shall name Tenant as a named insured and
Landlord (or any successor) and its respective members, principals, beneficiaries, partners,
officers, directors, employees, and agents, and other designees of Landlord as the interest of such
designees shall appear, as additional insureds. Tenant agrees to give Landlord and its designees
at least 25 days’ advance written notice of any change, cancellation, termination 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 or the date Tenant is provided
with possession of the Premises for any reason, and upon renewals at least 15 days prior to the
expiration of the insurance coverage. Landlord shall, at all times, maintain so called All Risk
property insurance on the Building at replacement cost value, as reasonably estimated by Landlord.
Except as specifically provided to the contrary, the limits of either party’s’ insurance shall not
limit such party’s liability under this Lease.
15. Mutual Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord
and Tenant hereby waive and shall cause their respective insurance carriers to waive any and all
rights of recovery, claim, action or causes of action against the other and their respective
trustees, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, agents, and employees, for any
loss or damage that may occur to Landlord or Tenant or any party claiming by, through or under
Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, with respect to Tenant’s Property, the Building, the
Premises, any additions or improvements to the Building or Premises, or any contents thereof,
including all rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of action arising out of the negligence
of Landlord or any Landlord Related Parties (defined in Section 16.1 below) or the negligence of
Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties (defined in Section 16.1 below), which loss or damage is (or
would have been, had the insurance required by this Lease been carried) covered by such party’s
property/casualty insurance.
16. Indemnity and Waiver of Claims.
16.1 Tenant Indemnity. Subject to Section 15 above, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and
hold Landlord, its trustees, members, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors,
employees, Mortgagee(s) (defined in Section 24.1 below) and agents (collectively, “Landlord
Related Parties”) harmless against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties,
claims, actions, costs, charges and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees and other professional fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law), which may be imposed
upon, incurred by or asserted against Landlord or any of the Landlord Related Parties and arising
out of or in connection with any damage or injury occurring in the Premises or any acts or
omissions (including violations of Law) of Tenant, its trustees, members, principals,
beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, “Tenant
Related Parties”) or any of Tenant’s transferees, contractors or licensees; provided, however,
(and though Tenant shall in all cases accept any tender of defense of any action or proceeding in
which Landlord is named or made a party and shall, notwithstanding any allegations of negligence or
misconduct on the part of Landlord, defend Landlord as provided herein), Tenant shall not be
liable, and subject to Section 15 above, Landlord shall indemnify Tenant for such damage or injury
to the extent and in proportion that the same is ultimately determined to be attributable to the
negligence or misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord Related Parties.
16.2 Landlord Not Liable. Except to the extent that the same is ultimately determined to
be attributable to the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord
Related Parties, Landlord and the Landlord Related Parties shall not be liable for, and Tenant
waives, all claims for loss or damage to Tenant’s business or loss, theft or damage to Tenant’s
Property or the property of any person claiming by, through or under Tenant resulting from: (1)
wind or weather; (2) the failure of any sprinkler, heating or air-conditioning equipment, any
electric wiring or any gas, water or steam pipes; (3) the backing up of any sewer pipe or
downspout; (4) the bursting, leaking or running of any tank, water closet, drain or other pipe; (5)
water, snow or ice upon or coming through the roof, skylight, stairs, doorways, windows, walks or
any other place upon or near the Building; (6) any act or omission of any party other than Landlord
or Landlord Related Parties; and (7) any causes not reasonably within the control of Landlord. In
no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for consequential damages. Tenant shall insure itself
against such losses under Section 14 above.
16.3 Survival. The indemnification obligations set forth in this Article 16 shall survive
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
-14-
17. Casualty Damage.
17.1 If all or any part of the Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall
immediately notify Landlord in writing. During any period of time that all or a material portion
of the Premises is rendered untenantable as a result of a fire or other casualty, the Rent shall
xxxxx for the portion of the Premises that is untenantable and not used by Tenant. Landlord shall
have the right to terminate this Lease if: (1) the Building shall be damaged so that, in
Landlord’s reasonable judgment, substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall be
required (whether or not the Premises has been damaged) and Landlord estimates more than 180 days
from the date of such casualty are required to complete such restoration; (2) Landlord is not
permitted by Law to rebuild the Building in substantially the same form as existed before the fire
or casualty; (3) the Premises have been materially damaged and there is less than 12 months of the
Term remaining on the date of the casualty; (4) any Mortgagee requires that the insurance proceeds
be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt; or (5) a material uninsured loss to the Building
occurs, provided that Landlord has carried the insurance required to be carried under this Lease.
Landlord may exercise its right to terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing within 60
days after the date of the casualty. If Landlord does not terminate this Lease, Landlord shall
commence and proceed with reasonable diligence to repair and restore the Building and the Tenant
Improvements (excluding any Alterations that were performed by Tenant in violation of this Lease).
However, in no event shall Landlord be required to spend more than the insurance proceeds received
by Landlord. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage to Tenant’s Property or to the
business of Tenant resulting in any way from the fire or other casualty or from the repair and
restoration of the damage. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the provisions of any Law relating to
the matters addressed in this Section, and agree that their respective rights for damage to or
destruction of the Premises shall be those specifically provided in this Lease.
17.2 If all or any portion of the Premises shall be made untenantable by fire or other casualty,
Landlord shall, within forty-five (45) days after such casualty, cause an architect or general
contractor selected by Landlord to provide Landlord and Tenant with a written estimate of the
amount of time required to substantially complete the repair and restoration of the Premises and
make the Premises tenantable again, using standard working methods (“Completion Estimate”).
If the Completion Estimate indicates that the Premises cannot be made tenantable within 270 days
from the date of the Casualty, then regardless of anything in Section 17.1 above to the contrary,
either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other of
such election within 10 days after receipt of the Completion Estimate. Tenant, however, shall not
have the right to terminate this Lease if the fire or casualty was caused by the negligence or
intentional misconduct of Tenant, Tenant Related Parties or any of Tenant’s transferees,
contractors or licensees. In addition to the foregoing, if the fire or casualty was not caused by
the negligence or intentional misconduct of Tenant, Tenant Related Parties or any of Tenant’s
transferees, contractors or licensees and the Completion Estimate stated that the repair and
restoration of the Premises could be substantially completed within 270 days from the date of the
Casualty but, in fact, the required repair and restoration work is not substantially complete
within 330 days from the date of the Casualty (subject to extension by reason of delays caused by
Tenant or Force Majeure), Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon delivery of
written notice to Landlord at any time following the expiration of such 330-day time period.
17.3 The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 17, constitute an express agreement
between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any
part of the Premises or the Project, and any Laws, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2)
and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning
damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other
Laws now or hereinafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or
destruction to all or any part of the Premises or the Project.
18. Condemnation. Either party may terminate this Lease if the whole or any material part of the
Premises shall be taken or condemned for any public or quasi-public use under Law, by eminent
domain or private purchase in lieu thereof (a “Taking”). Landlord shall also have the
right to terminate this Lease if there is a Taking of any portion of the Building or Project which
would leave the remainder of the Building unsuitable for use as an office building in a manner
comparable to the Building’s use prior to the Taking. In order to exercise its right to terminate
the Lease, Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, must provide written notice of termination to
the other within 45 days after the terminating party first receives notice of the Taking. Any such
termination shall be effective as of the date the physical taking of the Premises or the portion of
the Building or Project occurs. If this Lease is not terminated, the rentable square footage of
the Building, the rentable square footage of the Premises and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share shall, if
applicable, be appropriately adjusted. In addition, Rent for any portion of the Premises taken or
condemned shall be abated during the unexpired Term of this Lease effective when the physical
taking of the portion of the Premises occurs. All compensation awarded for a Taking, or sale
proceeds, shall be the property of Landlord, any right to receive compensation or proceeds being
expressly waived by Tenant. However, Tenant may file a separate claim at its sole cost and expense
for Tenant’s Property and Tenant’s reasonable relocation expenses, provided the filing of the claim
does not diminish the award which would otherwise be receivable by Landlord. Tenant hereby waives
any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of the California Code of
Civil Procedure, or any similar or successor Laws.
19. Events of Default. Tenant shall be considered to be in default of this Lease upon the
occurrence of any of the following events of default:
19.1 Tenant’s failure to pay when due all or any portion of the Rent, if the failure continues for
5 days after written notice to Tenant (it being agreed, however, that such notice 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 successor
statute thereto) (“Monetary Default”).
-15-
19.2 Tenant’s failure (other than a Monetary Default) to comply with any term, provision or
covenant of this Lease, if the failure is not cured within 30 days after written notice to Tenant.
However, if Tenant’s failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within 30 days, Tenant shall be
allowed additional time (not to exceed 90 days) as is reasonably necessary to cure the failure so
long as: (1) Tenant commences to cure the failure within 30 days, and (2) Tenant diligently
pursues a course of action that will cure the failure and bring Tenant back into compliance with
the Lease. However, if Tenant’s failure to comply creates a hazardous condition, the failure must
be cured immediately upon notice to Tenant. In addition, if Landlord provides Tenant with notice
of Tenant’s failure to comply with any particular term, provision or covenant of the Lease on 3
occasions during any 12 month period, Tenant’s subsequent violation of such term, provision or
covenant shall, at Landlord’s option, be an incurable event of default by Tenant.
19.3 Tenant or any Guarantor becomes insolvent, makes a transfer in fraud of creditors or makes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts when
due.
19.4 The leasehold estate is taken by process or operation of Law.
19.5 Tenant is in default beyond any notice and cure period under any other lease or agreement with
Landlord, including, without limitation, the agreement for parking attached as Exhibit E to
this Lease.
20. Remedies.
20.1 Upon the occurrence of any event or events of default under this Lease, whether enumerated in
Section 19 above or not, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following
remedies without any notice (except as expressly prescribed herein) or demand whatsoever (and
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant hereby specifically waives notice and
demand for payment of Rent or other obligations and waives any and all other notices or demand
requirements imposed by applicable law):
20.1.1. Terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises and recover from
Tenant an award of damages equal to the sum of the following:
(a) The Worth at the Time of Award of the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of
termination;
(b) 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 Rent loss
that Tenant affirmatively proves could have been reasonably avoided;
(c) The Worth at the Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of
the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant
affirmatively proves could be reasonably avoided;
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment either
proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or
which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and
(e) All such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted
from time to time under applicable law.
The “Worth at the Time of Award” of the amounts referred to in subparts (a) and (b) above,
shall be computed by allowing interest at the lesser of a per annum rate equal to: (i) the
greatest per annum rate of interest permitted from time to time under applicable law, or (ii) the
Prime Rate plus five percent (5%). For purposes hereof, the “Prime Rate” shall be the per
annum interest rate publicly announced as its prime or base rate by a federally insured bank
selected by Landlord in the State of California. The “Worth at the Time of Award” of the
amount referred to in part (c), above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount
rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%);
20.1.2. Exercise the remedy described in California Civil Code § 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); or
20.1.3. Notwithstanding Landlord’s exercise of the remedy described in California Civil Code §
1951.4 in respect of an event or events of default, at such time thereafter as Landlord may elect
in writing, to terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises and recover an
award of damages as provided above in Paragraph 20.1.1 above.
20.2 The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of
any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the
failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of
such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No waiver by Landlord of any breach
hereof shall be effective unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Landlord.
20.3 TENANT HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS CONFERRED BY SECTION 3275 OF THE CIVIL CODE OF
CALIFORNIA AND BY SECTIONS 1174 (c) AND 1179 OF THE CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OF CALIFORNIA AND ANY
AND ALL OTHER LAWS AND RULES OF LAW FROM TIME
-16-
TO TIME IN EFFECT DURING THE LEASE TERM PROVIDING
THAT TENANT SHALL HAVE ANY RIGHT TO REDEEM, REINSTATE OR RESTORE THIS LEASE FOLLOWING ITS
TERMINATION BY REASON OF TENANT’S BREACH. LANDLORD AND TENANT ALSO EACH HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS LEASE.
20.4 No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive
of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in
addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing by agreement,
applicable law or in equity. In addition to other remedies provided in this Lease, Landlord shall
be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief, or to a decree
compelling performance of any of the covenants, agreements, conditions or provisions of this Lease,
or to any other remedy allowed to Landlord at law or in equity. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce
one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of default shall not be deemed or
construed to constitute a waiver of such default.
20.5 This Article 20 shall be enforceable to the maximum extent such enforcement is not prohibited
by applicable law, and the unenforceability of any portion thereof shall not thereby render
unenforceable any other portion.
21. Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the
liability of Landlord (and of any successor landlord) to Tenant shall be limited to the interest of
Landlord in the Project. Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Project for the
recovery of any judgment or award against Landlord. Neither Landlord nor any landlord related
party shall be personally liable for any judgment or deficiency. Before filing suit for an alleged
default by Landlord, Tenant shall give Landlord and the Mortgagee(s) (defined in Section 24.1
below) whom Tenant has been notified hold Mortgages (defined in Section 24.1 below) on the Project,
building or premises, notice and reasonable time to cure the alleged default. Notwithstanding any
contrary provision herein, neither Landlord nor Tenant (excepting those claims against Tenant
described below) shall be liable under any circumstances for consequential or special damages,
including but not limited to injury or damage to, or interference with, the other party’s business,
including, loss of profits, loss of rents or other revenues, loss of business opportunity, loss of
goodwill or loss of use, in each case, however occurring; provided, however, the foregoing shall
not affect or modify Landlord’s right (i) pursuant to Section 22 of this Lease to recover
consequential damages in the event that Landlord is not able to deliver possession of the Premises
to a future tenant in a timely manner due to Tenant’s holding over; (ii) pursuant to Section 16.1
of this Lease to recover from Tenant the amount of any rental abatement Landlord is required to
give to another tenant in the Building because (x) such tenant is unable to use its leased premises
due to a negligent act of Tenant and (y) Landlord is not compensated for such rental abatement by
Landlord’s insurance; or (iii) to collect those damages described in Sections 20.1.1 and 20.1.2
above.
22. Holding Over. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises at the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, occupancy of the Premises after the termination or expiration shall be
that of a tenancy at sufferance. Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises during the holdover shall be
subject to all the terms and provisions of this Lease and Tenant shall pay an amount (on a per
month basis without reduction for partial months during the holdover) equal to 150% of the greater
of: (1) the sum of the Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the period immediately preceding the
holdover; or (2) the fair market gross rental for the Premises as reasonably determined by
Landlord. No holdover by Tenant or payment by Tenant after the expiration or early termination of
this Lease shall be construed to extend the Term or prevent Landlord from immediate recovery of
possession of the Premises by summary proceedings or otherwise. In addition to the payment of the
amounts provided above, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Premises to a new
tenant, or to perform improvements for a new tenant, as a result of Tenant’s holdover and Tenant
fails to vacate the Premises within 15 days after Landlord notifies Tenant of Landlord’s inability
to deliver possession, or perform improvements, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all damages,
including, without limitation, consequential damages, that Landlord suffers from the holdover.
23. Surrender of Premises.
23.1 Surrender; Removal of Tenant’s Property and Required Removables. At the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease or Tenant’s right of possession, Tenant shall remove Tenant’s
Property from the Premises, and quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord, broom clean, and in
the condition required to be maintained hereunder. If Tenant fails to remove any of Tenant’s
Property within 5 days after the termination of this Lease or of Tenant’s right to possession,
Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall be entitled (but not obligated) to remove and
store Tenant’s Property. Landlord shall not be responsible for the value, preservation or
safekeeping of Tenant’s Property. Tenant shall pay Landlord, upon demand, the actual expenses and
storage charges incurred for Tenant’s Property. In addition, if Tenant fails to remove Tenant’s
Property from the Premises or storage, as the case may be, within 30 days after written notice,
Landlord may deem all or any part of Tenant’s Property to be abandoned, and title to Tenant’s
Property shall be deemed to be immediately vested in Landlord.
23.2 Surrender; Removal of Network Cabling. Tenant shall have the right to remove all
Network Cabling prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. At least 60 days
prior to the expiration of the end of the Lease Term, Tenant shall advise Landlord if it will
remove the Network Cabling. If Tenant elects not to remove the Network Cabling, then upon receipt
of 24-hour advance notice from Landlord to Tenant at or near the end of the Lease Term, the Network
Cabling will be made available for inspection by Landlord to determine if Landlord will require
Tenant to leave all or any portion of the same at the Premises upon the end of the Lease Term.
Landlord, by written notice to Tenant prior to the Termination Date, may require Tenant to remove,
at Tenant’s expense, all or any
portion of the Network Cabling. The Network Cabling designated by Landlord shall be removed by
Tenant before the Termination Date, provided that upon prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant may
remain in the Premises for
-17-
up to 5 days after the Termination Date for the sole purpose of removing
the Network Cabling designated by Landlord to be removed. Tenant’s possession of the Premises
shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, including the obligation to pay
Rent on a per diem basis at the rate in effect for the last month of the Term. Tenant shall repair
damage caused by the installation or removal of Network Cabling designated by Landlord to be
removed. If Tenant fails to remove any Network Cabling so designated for removal or perform
related repairs in a timely manner, or if Tenant damages the Network Cabling that Landlord
designates to remain at the Premises or the same is not in substantially the same condition as when
Landlord conducted its inspection at or near the end of the Lease Term, Landlord, at Tenant’s
expense, may remove and dispose of the designated or damaged or non-functioning Network Cabling and
perform the required repairs. Tenant, within 30 days after receipt of an invoice, shall reimburse
Landlord for the reasonable costs incurred by Landlord.
24. Subordination to Mortgages; Estoppel Certificate.
24.1 Subordination. Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage(s),
deed(s) of trust, ground lease(s) or other lien(s) now or subsequently arising upon the Premises,
the Building or the Project, and to renewals, modifications, refinancings and extensions thereof
(collectively referred to as a “Mortgage”). The party having the benefit of a Mortgage
shall be referred to as a “Mortgagee”. This clause shall be self-operative, but upon
request from a Mortgagee, Tenant shall execute a commercially reasonable subordination agreement in
favor of the Mortgagee within 10 Business Days following Landlord’s request; provided, however,
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that any such agreement shall, among other things, recognize that:
(i) the Mortgagee shall not be liable for, nor subject to, any offsets or defenses which Tenant may
have by reason of any act or omission of Landlord under this Lease; (ii) the Mortgagee shall not be
liable for the return of any sums which Tenant may have paid to Landlord under this Lease as and
for security deposits, advance rentals or otherwise, except to the extent that such sums are
actually delivered by Landlord to the Mortgagee; (iii) the Mortgagee will not be bound by any
option to purchase with respect to the Building or Project; any right of first refusal with respect
to the Building or Project, any provision regarding the use of insurance proceeds or condemnation
proceeds with respect to the Building or Project which is inconsistent with the terms of the
Mortgage; and (iv) the Mortgagee shall not be bound by any amendment to this Lease made without the
Mortgagee’s consent. If Tenant fails to return to Landlord an executed subordination agreement
satisfying the requirements of this Section 24.1 within the foregoing 10-Business Day period,
Landlord shall make a second request to Tenant, and if Tenant fails to deliver an executed
subordination agreement within 5 days thereafter, in addition to Landlord’s other rights and
remedies provided in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late fee of $100.00 for each day
beyond such 5 day period, that Tenant fails to deliver an executed subordination agreement to
Landlord. In lieu of having the Mortgage be superior to this Lease, a Mortgagee shall have the
right at any time to subordinate its Mortgage to this Lease. If requested by a
successor-in-interest to all or a part of Landlord’s interest in the Lease, Tenant shall, without
charge, attorn to the successor-in-interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the
contrary contained herein, concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Landlord shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the existing Mortgagee to enter into its form
subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement prior to the commencement of construction
of the Landlord’s Work, which provides in substance that so long as Tenant is not in default under
the terms of this Lease, its tenancy and all of its rights hereunder will not be disturbed
throughout the Term of this Lease. Tenant shall have no rights or remedies nor shall Landlord be
in default if Landlord is unsuccessful in obtaining such agreement. In addition, Tenant’s
agreement to subordinate its interest to any future Mortgages is expressly conditioned upon the
Mortgagee agreeing in writing to not disturb Tenant’s rights under this Lease following a transfer
of Landlord’s interest in the Lease to the Mortgagee as long as Tenant is not in default under this
Lease beyond all applicable cure periods and agrees to attorn to the Mortgagee.
24.2 Estoppels. Landlord and Tenant shall each, within 10 Business Days after receipt of a
written request from the other, execute and deliver an estoppel certificate to those parties as are
reasonably requested by the other (including a Mortgagee or prospective purchaser). The estoppel
certificate shall include a statement certifying that this Lease is unmodified (except as
identified in the estoppel certificate) and in full force and effect, describing the dates to which
Rent and other charges have been paid, representing that, to such party’s actual knowledge, there
is no default (or stating the nature of the alleged default) and indicating other matters with
respect to the Lease that may reasonably be requested. If Tenant fails to return to Landlord an
executed estoppel certificate within the foregoing 10 day period, Landlord shall make a second
request to Tenant, and if Tenant fails to deliver an executed estoppel certificate within 5 days
thereafter, in addition to Landlord’s other rights and remedies provided in this Lease, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord a late fee of $100.00 for each day beyond such 5 day period, that Tenant
fails to deliver an executed estoppel certificate to Landlord. In lieu of having the Mortgage be
superior to this Lease, a Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate its Mortgage to
this Lease.
25. Landlord’s Development Rights.
25.1 Development of Project. This Lease does not grant any rights to light or air over or
about the Building. Landlord excepts and reserves exclusively to itself the use of: (1) roofs,
(2) telephone, electrical and janitorial closets, (3) equipment rooms, Building risers or similar
areas that are used by Landlord for the provision of Building services, (4) rights to the land and
improvements below the floor of the Premises, (5) the improvements and air rights above the
Premises, (6) the improvements and air rights outside the demising walls of the Premises, and (7)
the areas within the Premises used for the installation of utility lines and other installations
serving occupants of the Building. Landlord has the right to change the Building’s name or
address. Landlord also has the right to make such other changes to the Project and Building as
Landlord deems appropriate, provided the changes do not materially affect Tenant’s ability to use
the Premises for the Permitted Use. Landlord shall also have the right (but not the obligation) to
temporarily close the Building if Landlord reasonably determines that there is an imminent danger
of significant damage to the Building or of personal injury to Landlord’s employees or the
occupants of the Building.
The circumstances under which Landlord may temporarily close the Building shall include, without
limitation,
-18-
electrical interruptions, hurricanes and civil disturbances. A closure of the Building
under such circumstances shall not constitute a constructive eviction nor entitle Tenant to an
abatement or reduction of Rent.
25.2 Subdivision of Project. Landlord reserves the right to further subdivide all or a
portion of the Project. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver, upon demand by Landlord and in the
reasonable form requested by Landlord, any reasonable additional documents needed to conform this
Lease to the circumstances resulting from such subdivision. If portions of the Project or property
adjacent to the Project (collectively, the “Other Improvements”) are owned by an entity
other than Landlord, Landlord, at its option, may enter into an agreement with the owner or owners
of any or all of the Other Improvements to provide (i) for reciprocal rights of access and/or use
of the Project and the Other Improvements, (ii) for the common management, operation, maintenance,
improvement and/or repair of all or any portion of the Project and the Other Improvements, (iii)
for the allocation of a portion of the Operating Expenses to the Other Improvements and the
operating expenses and taxes for the Other Improvements to the Project, and (iv) for the use or
improvement of the Other Improvements and/or the Project in connection with the improvement,
construction, and/or excavation of the Other Improvements and/or the Project. Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed or construed to limit or otherwise affect Landlord’s right to convey all or
any portion of the Project or any other of Landlord’s rights described in this Lease. Tenant
acknowledges that portions of the Project and/or the Other Improvements may be under construction
following Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, and that such construction may result in levels of
noise, dust, obstruction of access, etc. which are in excess of that present in a fully constructed
project. Tenant hereby waives any and all rent offsets or claims of constructive eviction which
may arise in connection with such construction.
26. Notices. If a demand, request, approval, consent or notice (collectively referred to as a
“notice”) shall or may be given to either party by the other, the notice shall be in
writing and delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail with return receipt
requested, or sent by overnight or same day courier service at the party’s respective Notice
Address(es) set forth in the Basic Lease Information, except that if Tenant has vacated the
Premises (or if the Notice Address for Tenant is other than the Premises, and Tenant has vacated
such address) without providing Landlord a new Notice Address, Landlord may serve notice in any
manner described in this Section or in any other manner permitted by Law. Each notice shall be
deemed to have been received or given on the earlier to occur of actual delivery or the date on
which delivery is refused, or, if Tenant has vacated the Premises or the other Notice Address of
Tenant without providing a new Notice Address, 3 days after notice is deposited in the U.S. mail or
with a courier service in the manner described above. Either party may, at any time, change its
Notice Address by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner described
in this Section.
27. Miscellaneous.
27.1 Governing Law. This Lease and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be
interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of California and
Landlord and Tenant hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction and proper venue of such state.
If any term or provision of this Lease shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder of this Lease shall not be affected, and each provision of this Lease shall be valid and
enforced to the fullest extent permitted by Law. The headings and titles to the Sections of this
Lease are for convenience only and shall have no effect on the interpretation of any part of the
Lease.
27.2 No Recordation. Tenant shall not record this Lease or any memorandum without
Landlord’s prior written consent.
27.3 Attorneys’ Fees. If either party institutes a suit against the other for violation of
or to enforce any covenant or condition of this Lease, or if either party intervenes in any suit in
which the other is a party to enforce or protect its interest or rights, the prevailing party shall
be entitled to all of its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees.
27.4 Waiver of Jury Trial. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive any right to trial by jury in
any proceeding based upon a breach of this Lease.
27.5 Intentionally Omitted.
27.6 Force Majeure. Whenever a period of time is prescribed for the taking of an action by
Landlord or Tenant, the period of time for the performance of such action shall be extended by the
number of days that the performance is actually delayed due to strikes, acts of God, shortages of
labor or materials, war, civil disturbances and other causes beyond the reasonable control of the
performing party (“Force Majeure”). However, events of Force Majeure shall not extend any
period of time for the payment of Rent or other sums payable by either party or any period of time
for the written exercise of an option or right by either party.
27.7 Landlord Release. Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or
in part, all of its rights and obligations under this Lease and in the Building and/or Project
referred to herein, and upon such transfer Landlord shall be released from any further obligations
hereunder, and Tenant agrees to look solely to the successor in interest of Landlord for the
performance of such obligations.
27.8 Brokers. 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 claiming to have represented
Tenant in connection with this Lease. Landlord agrees to indemnify and hold Tenant and the Tenant
Related Parties harmless from all claims of any brokers claiming to have represented Landlord in
connection with this Lease.
-19-
27.9 Warranty of Authority. Tenant covenants, warrants and represents that: (1) each
individual executing, attesting and/or delivering this Lease on behalf of Tenant is authorized to
do so on behalf of Tenant; (2) this Lease is binding upon Tenant; and (3) Tenant is duly organized
and legally existing in the state of its organization and is qualified to do business in the State
of California. 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. Notices, payments and agreements given or made by, with or to any one person
or entity shall be deemed to have been given or made by, with and to all of them.
27.10 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise of any
expansion, renewal or extension rights granted to Tenant. This Lease shall create only the
relationship of landlord and tenant between the parties, and not a partnership, joint venture or
any other relationship. This Lease and the covenants and conditions in this Lease shall inure only
to the benefit of and be binding only upon Landlord and Tenant and their permitted successors and
assigns.
27.11 Survival. The expiration of the Term, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, shall
not relieve either party of any obligations which accrued prior to or which may continue to accrue
after the expiration or early termination of this Lease. Without limiting the scope of the prior
sentence, it is agreed that Tenant’s obligations under Sections 4, 5, 10.3, 16, 20, 22, 23 and
27.15 shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease.
27.12 Financial Statements. Tenant, within 15 days after request, shall provide Landlord
with a current financial statement and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request in
order to create a “business profile” of Tenant and determine Tenant’s ability to fulfill its
obligations under this Lease. Landlord, however, shall not require Tenant to provide such
information unless Landlord is requested to produce the information in connection with a proposed
financing or sale of the Building. Upon written request by Tenant, Landlord shall enter into a
commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement covering any confidential information that is
disclosed by Tenant.
27.13 Independent Covenants. This Lease shall be construed as though the covenants herein
between Landlord and Tenant are independent and not dependent and Tenant hereby expressly waives
the benefit of any statute to the contrary and agrees that if Landlord fails to perform its
obligations set forth herein, Tenant shall not be entitled to make any repairs or perform any acts
hereunder at Landlord’s expense or to any setoff of the Rent or other amounts owing hereunder
against Landlord.
27.14 Transportation Management. Tenant shall fully comply with all present or future
programs intended to manage parking, transportation or traffic in and around the Building, and in
connection therewith, Tenant shall take responsible action for the transportation planning and
management of all employees located at the Premises by working directly with Landlord, any
governmental transportation management organization or any other transportation-related committees
or entities.
27.15 Signage. Tenant shall be entitled, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to
identification signage (i) adjacent to the doorway providing entrance to Tenant’s Premises on the
floor on which Tenant’s Premises are located and (ii) on the interactive directory screen located
in the lobby of the Building, subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval. The location, quality,
design, style, lighting and size of such signage and the Exterior Sign (defined below) shall be
consistent with the Landlord’s Project standard signage program and shall be subject to Landlord’s
prior written approval, in its reasonable discretion. Upon the expiration or earlier termination
of this Lease, Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for the removal of all
such signage and the repair of all damage to the Building caused by such removal. Effective as of
the Commencement Date, Tenant shall also have the non-exclusive right, but not the obligation, to
install, at its sole cost and expense, one (1) building top signage on the Building in the location
shown on Exhibit H attached hereto (the “Exterior Sign”). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant shall not be entitled to install the Exterior Sign if: (a) Tenant has previously assigned
its interest in this Lease (except in connection with a Permitted Transfer), (b) Tenant has
previously sublet more than 40% of the square footage of the Premises (except in connection with a
Permitted Transfer), or (c) Tenant is in default under any monetary or material non-monetary
provision of the Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods. Furthermore, Tenant’s right to
install the Exterior Sign is expressly subject to and contingent upon Tenant receiving the approval
and consent to the Exterior Sign from the City of Aliso Viejo, California, its architectural review
board, any other applicable governmental or quasi-governmental governmental agency and any
architectural review committee under the CC&Rs. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall obtain
all other necessary building permits, zoning, regulatory and other approvals in connection with the
Exterior Sign. All costs of approval, consent, design, installation, supervision of installation,
wiring, maintaining, repairing and removing the Exterior Sign will be at Tenant’s sole cost and
expense. Tenant shall submit to Landlord reasonably detailed drawings of its proposed Exterior
Sign, including without limitation, the size, material, shape, location, coloring and lettering for
review and approval by Landlord. The Exterior Sign shall be subject to (1) Landlord’s prior review
and written approval thereof, and (2) the terms, conditions and restrictions of the CC&Rs and shall
conform to the Building sign criteria and Project sign criteria, if any, and the other reasonable
standards of design and motif established by Landlord for the exterior of the Building and/or the
Project. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs associated with
Landlord’s review and supervision as hereinbefore provided including, but not limited to, engineers
and other professional consultants. Tenant will be solely responsible for any damage to the
Exterior Sign and any damage that the installation, maintenance, repair or removal thereof may
cause to the Building or the Project. Tenant agrees upon the expiration date or sooner termination
of this Lease, upon Landlord’s request, to remove the Exterior Sign and restore any damage to the
Building and the Project at Tenant’s expense. In addition, Landlord shall have the right to remove
the Exterior Sign at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, if, at any time during the Term, conditions
(a)-(c) above are not satisfied or the Term expires or is terminated and Tenant has failed to
remove the Exterior Sign and repair any damage in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, if Tenant fails to install the Exterior Sign on the Building in
accordance with the terms of this
-20-
Paragraph 27.15 on or before the first year anniversary of the Commencement Date (the “Outside
Exterior Sign Installation Date”), Tenant’s right to install any such Exterior Sign shall
terminate as of the Outside Exterior Sign Installation Date and shall thereupon be deemed null and
void and of no further force and effect. Any signs, notices, logos, pictures, names or
advertisements which are installed and that have not been individually approved by Landlord may be
removed without notice by Landlord at the sole expense of Tenant. Except as set forth herein,
Tenant may not install any signs on the exterior or roof of the Building, Project, or the common
areas of the Building or the Project. Any signs, window coverings, or blinds (even if the same are
located behind the Landlord approved window coverings for the Building), or other items visible
from the exterior of the Premises, Building or Project are subject to the prior approval of
Landlord, in its sole discretion.
27.16 No Waiver. Either party’s failure to declare a default immediately upon its
occurrence, or delay in taking action for a default shall not constitute a waiver of the default,
nor shall it constitute an estoppel. Either party’s failure to enforce its rights for a default
shall not constitute a waiver of its rights regarding any subsequent default. Receipt by Landlord
of Tenant’s keys to the Premises shall not constitute an acceptance or surrender of the Premises.
27.17 Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant shall, and may peacefully have, hold and enjoy the Premises,
subject to the terms of this Lease, provided Tenant pays the Rent and fully performs all of its
covenants and agreements; provided, however, Landlord makes no such covenant with respect to
Tenant’s use or enjoyment of any telecommunication equipment (whether wireless or part of any
Network Cabling of Tenant) and the existence or occurrence of any interference any such equipment
may encounter while located at or used in the Premises. This covenant and all other covenants of
Landlord shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only during its or their respective
periods of ownership of the Building, and shall not be a personal covenant of Landlord or the
Landlord Related Parties.
27.18 Entire Agreement. This Lease and the following addendum, exhibits and attachments

WORK LETTER
This Work Letter shall set forth the terms and conditions relating to the construction of the
tenant improvements in the Premises. This Work Letter is essentially organized chronologically and
addresses the issues of the construction of the Premises, in sequence, as such issues will arise
during the actual construction of the Premises. All references in this Work Letter to Articles or
Sections of “this Lease” shall mean the relevant portions of the Lease to which this Work Letter is
attached as Exhibit D and of which this Work Letter forms a part, and all references in this Work
Letter to Sections of “this Work Letter” shall mean the relevant portion of Sections 1 through 6 of
this Work Letter.
SECTION 1
LANDLORD’S INITIAL CONSTRUCTION IN THE PREMISES
1.1 Base, Shell and Core of the Premises as Constructed by Landlord. Landlord has constructed
or will construct, the base, shell and core of the Building as generally described on Schedule 1,
attached hereto (the “Base, Shell, and Core”).
1.2 Intentionally Omitted.
SECTION 2
TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
2.1 Tenant Improvements; Generally. Landlord shall construct, at its sole cost and expense
(except as otherwise provided in this Work Letter) up to an amount not to exceed $1,449,910.00 (the
“Cap”), office improvements in the Premises (“Tenant Improvements”) that substantially conform to
the Final Space Plan (defined in Section 3.2 below) and that substantially conform to Landlord’s
Standard Improvement Package (as defined in Section 2.2 below) or such other materials and finishes
as agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant. All of those costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements in excess of the amount of the Cap
shall be the responsibility of Tenant, as more particularly set forth in this Work Letter.
2.2 Costs Charged Against the Cap. All of the costs related to the construction of the Tenant
Improvements shall be charged against the Cap, along with the following items and costs
(collectively, the “Tenant Improvement Cap Items”): (i) payment of the fees of the “Architect” and
the “Engineers,” as those terms are defined in Section 3.1 of this Work Letter (excluding the
Architect Allowance, which shall be disbursed separately pursuant to Section 3.6 below) payment of
the fees incurred by, and the cost of documents and materials supplied by, Landlord and Landlord’s
consultants in connection with the preparation and review of the “Construction Drawings,” as that
term is defined in Section 3.1 of this Tenant Work Letter; (ii) the cost of obtaining any and all
permits for the construction of the Tenant Improvements; (iii) the cost of any changes in the Base,
Shell and Core when such changes are required by the Construction Drawings (including the cost for
the electrical metering of the Premises contemplated in the Lease); and (iv) the cost of any
changes to the Construction Drawings or Tenant Improvements required by all applicable building
codes (the “Code”).
2.3 Standard Tenant Improvement Package. Landlord has established specifications (the
“Specifications”) for the Building standard components to be used in the construction of the Tenant
Improvements in the Premises (collectively, the “Standard Improvement Package”), which
Specifications are set forth on Schedule 2, attached hereto. The quality of Tenant Improvements
shall be equal to or of greater quality than the quality of the Specifications.
2.4 No Removable Items. Tenant shall not be required to remove any Tenant Improvements from
the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
SECTION 3
CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS
3.1 Selection of Architect/Construction Drawings. The architect/space planner designated by
Landlord and Tenant, Shlemmer Xxxxxx Associates (the “Architect”), shall prepare the “Construction
Drawings,” as that term is defined in this Section 3.1. The engineering consultants designated by
Landlord (the “Engineers”) shall prepare all plans and engineering working drawings relating to the
structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, life-safety, and sprinkler work of the Tenant
Improvements. The plans and drawings to be prepared by Architect and the Engineers hereunder shall
be known collectively as the “Construction Drawings”, and shall be based upon the Final Space Plan
(defined below) All Construction Drawings shall comply with the drawing format and specifications
as determined by Landlord, and shall be subject to Landlord’s approval. Architect shall verify, in
the field, the dimensions and conditions as shown on the relevant portions of the base Building
plans, and Landlord shall have no responsibility in connection therewith. Landlord’s review of the
Construction Drawings as set forth in this Section 3, shall be for its sole purpose and shall not
imply Landlord’s review of the same, or obligate Landlord to review the same, for quality, design,
Code compliance or other like matters. Accordingly, notwithstanding that any Construction Drawings
are reviewed by Landlord or its space planner, architect, engineers and consultants, and
notwithstanding any advice or assistance which may be rendered to Tenant by Landlord or Landlord’s
space planner,
EXHIBIT D
-1-
architect, engineers, and consultants, Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever in
connection therewith and shall not be responsible for any omissions or errors contained in the
Construction Drawings.
3.2 Final Space Plan. Landlord and Tenant have approved the final space plan for the Tenant
Improvements to be constructed in the Premises (collectively, the “Final Space Plan”), which is
attached hereto as Schedule 4.
3.3 Final Working Drawings; Final Pricing Plan. The Architect and the Engineers shall
complete the architectural and engineering drawings based upon the Final Space Plan for the
Premises, and the final architectural working drawings in a form which is complete to allow
subcontractors to bid on the work and to obtain all applicable permits (collectively, the “Final
Working Drawings”) and shall submit the same to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, and Landlord
shall, in turn, submit the same to Tenant for Tenant’s approval, together with a “Final Pricing
Plan,” which approval shall be given on or before the date set forth on Schedule 3. Tenant may
work with the Architect, Landlord and the Contractor (defined below) to value engineer the Final
Working Drawings for the purpose of reducing the cost of the Tenant Improvements, but under no
circumstance shall the Tenant Improvements be rebid as a result of any revisions to the Final
Working Drawings; provided, however, so long as Landlord is using commercially reasonable efforts
to respond to any requests and comments made to the Final Working Drawings and Final Pricing Plan
by Tenant, in the event that Landlord and Tenant have not agreed upon the Final Working Drawings
and Final Pricing Plan by March 15, 2011, each day thereafter shall be deemed a “Tenant Delay”
until the parties have agreed upon the Final Working Drawings and Final Pricing Plan. Tenant’s
failure to deliver any comments or disapprovals within such time shall be deemed Tenant’s approval
thereof. If Tenant reasonably disapproves the Final Pricing Plan, Landlord and Tenant shall
negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the items contained in the Final Pricing Plan,
provided that Landlord shall not be obligated to approve any changes proposed by Tenant to the
Final Pricing Plan to the extent the proposed changes are inconsistent with the Standard
Improvement Package or if the quality of the Tenant Improvements will not be equal to or of greater
quality than the Specifications. Upon receipt of the approved Final Pricing Plan by Landlord,
Landlord shall be released by Tenant to purchase the items set forth in the Final Pricing Plan and
to commence the construction relating to such items.
3.4 Permits; Excess Costs. The Final Working Drawings shall be approved by Landlord and
Tenant (the “Approved Working Drawings”) prior to the commencement of the construction of the
Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall submit the Approved Working Drawings to the appropriate
municipal authorities for all applicable building permits necessary to allow “Contractor,” as that
term is defined in Section 4.1, below, to commence and fully complete the construction of the
Tenant Improvements (the “Permits”), and, in connection therewith, Landlord shall coordinate with
the Architect and Contractor in all phases of the permitting process and shall monitor all plan
check numbers and dates of submittal in order to obtain the Permits. No changes, modifications or
alterations in the Approved Working Drawings may be made without the prior written consent of
Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant may request changes to the
Approved Working Drawings provided that (a) the changes shall not be of a lesser quality than
Landlord’s standard Specifications (as described in Section 2.2 above) for tenant improvements for
the Building, as the same may be changed from time to time by Landlord; (b) the changes conform to
applicable governmental regulations and necessary governmental permits and approvals can be
secured; (c) the changes do not require building service beyond the levels normally provided to
other tenants in the Building; (d) the changes do not have any adverse affect on the structural
integrity or systems of the Building; (e) the changes will not, in Landlord’s opinion, unreasonably
delay construction of the Tenant Improvements; and (f) Landlord has determined in its sole
discretion that the changes are of a nature and quality consistent with the overall objectives of
Landlord for the Building. To the extent any such change results in a delay of completion of
construction of the Tenant Improvements, then such delay shall constitute a delay caused by Tenant
as described below. To the extent any such change approved by Landlord results in the total cost
of the Tenant Improvements to exceed the amount of the Cap, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, in
good and sufficient funds, fifty percent (50%) of the amount of such excess costs immediately upon
Landlord’s request. As described above in this Work Letter, Tenant shall also be responsible for
all of those costs and expenses relating to the construction of the Tenant Improvements (including
the Tenant Improvement Cap Items) in excess of the amount of the Cap, and for purposes of this Work
Letter, such costs and expenses in excess of the Cap amount and said costs described above relating
to changes in the Approved Working Drawings which result in the total cost of the Tenant
Improvements exceeding the amount of the Cap shall be collectively referred to as the “Excess Cost
Amount”. Fifty percent (50%) of the Excess Cost Amount shall be paid to Landlord within five (5)
Business Days of the parties’ approval of the Final Pricing Plan, or immediately upon request with
respect to any change to the Approved Working Drawings, as applicable. Landlord shall have no
obligation to commence construction of the Tenant Improvements until Tenant pays to Landlord such
portion of the Excess Cost Amount. Upon completion of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall
deliver the balance of the Excess Cost Amount to Landlord or Landlord shall promptly thereafter
refund any unused amount to Tenant.
3.5 Time Deadlines. Tenant shall use its best, good faith, efforts and all due diligence to
cooperate with the Architect, the Engineers, and Landlord to complete all phases of the
Construction Drawings and the permitting process and to receive the permits as soon as possible
after the execution of the Lease, and, in that regard, shall meet with Landlord on a scheduled
basis to be determined by Landlord, to discuss Tenant’s progress in connection with the same. The
applicable dates for approval of items, plans and drawings as described in this Section 3, Section
4, below, and in this Tenant Work Letter are set forth and further elaborated upon in Schedule 3
(the “Time Deadlines”), attached hereto. Tenant agrees to comply with the Time Deadlines.
3.6 Architect Allowance. Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time architect allowance (the
“Architect Allowance”) in the amount of Three Thousand Five Hundred Seventy-Four and 80/100 Dollars
($3,574.80) (i.e., $0.12 per rentable square foot of the Premises) for the costs relating to the
Final Space Plan created by Architect. Following the commencement of the construction of the
Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant,
EXHIBIT D
-2-
within thirty (30) days of receipt of written invoices, for all those costs and expenses
incurred by Tenant in connection with employing Architect to prepare the Final Space Plan up to an
amount not to exceed the Architect Allowance. All costs and expenses to prepare the Final Space
plan in excess of the Architect Allowance shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant.
SECTION 4
CONSTRUCTION OF THE TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
4.1 Contractor. A contractor designated by Landlord (“Contractor”) shall construct the Tenant
Improvements.
4.2 Landlord’s Payment for Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall be obligated to pay for all
costs for the design, permitting and construction of the Tenant Improvements up to an amount not to
exceed the Cap.
4.3 Construction of Tenant Improvements by Contractor under the Supervision of Landlord.
4.3.1 Landlord’s Retention of Contractor. Landlord shall independently retain
Contractor, to construct the Tenant Improvements in accordance with the Approved Working
Drawings and Landlord shall supervise the construction by Contractor.
4.3.2 Contractor’s Warranties and Guaranties. Landlord shall obtain from the
Contractor a one (1) year warranty (commencing on the Commencement Date) that the Tenant
Improvements have been completed substantially in accordance with the Approved Working
Drawings and are free from construction defects in materials and workmanship. If (i) it is
determined that the Tenant Improvements have not been completed substantially in accordance
with the Approved Working Drawings and/or contain any such construction defects, (ii) such
failure and/or construction defects do not arise out of any act, omission or negligence of
Tenant, its agents or employees, and (iii) Tenant notifies Landlord of such applicable
failure and/or construction defects within one hundred eighty (180) days after the
Commencement Date, then Landlord shall, at no cost to Tenant, correct such construction
defect. Following the expiration of said 180-day period, Landlord shall assign to Tenant
all warranties and guaranties by Contractor relating to the Tenant Improvements, and Tenant
shall be deemed to have waived all claims against Landlord relating to, or arising out of
the construction of, the Tenant Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing and to the
extent necessary, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts following the
expiration of said 180-day period, at no out-of-pocket cost to Landlord, to assist Tenant in
enforcing such warranties and guaranties by Contractor relating to the Tenant Improvements.

Policies and Procedures
Tenants shall contract exclusively with Landlord’s riser management vendor for the installation
and/or modification of all cabling from building entry point (MPOE) to tenant’s suite in accordance
with the established policies and procedures described below.
1. | No one shall be permitted access to the building communications closets without prior permission from Landlord’s riser management vendor or building management. All third party vendors will sign-in and sign-out with building security or property management. | ||
2. | Closet access by outside communication technicians shall be restricted to the building’s MPOE only and all work performed shall be supervised and inspected by Landlord’s riser management vendor on an hourly basis at the tenant’s expense. | ||
3. | Tenant shall provide Landlord’s riser management vendor with an event escalation and emergency contact list. | ||
4. | Tenants are not permitted to install any cable or equipment in building communications closets without authorization from Landlord’s riser management vendor and building management.

A pull string shall be installed in any conduit from which cabling is removed. |

Tenant Suite Cable Specifications
Tenant Suite Cable Specifications
Tenant in-suite cabling is generally left to the tenant’s discretion. However, at Summit the focus
is on technology. Xxxxxx Properties’ commitment to providing a state of the art facility for its’
tenants is very apparent in the Summit’s architecture, HVAC systems, power, security and
communications design. A cohesive CIM strategy is essential to the support and enhancement of this
environment. Therefore, the implementation and enforcement of the following standards shall apply:
1. | Data cabling systems must be Enhanced Category-5 or greater. All components in the system including cable, jacks, and patch panels must comply with EIA/TIA 568A and Technical Services Bulletin 97 and pass all channel and link tests for Enhanced Category-5. Test results shall be provided to building management and kept on record. | ||
2. | All Tenant-installed data cabling shall be tested and certified to current gigabit per second transmission standards. Any maintenance performed to such cabling shall require new testing and certification to these standards. Copies of such certifications should be submitted to Landlord within 48 hours of completion of the Work Order. | ||
3. | Voice cabling systems must be Category-3 or greater. All components in the system including cable, jacks and patch panels must comply with EIA/TIA 568A and pass all tests for Category-3. Test results shall be provided to building management and kept on record. Landlord’s riser management vendor will oversee all third party voice cabling to ensure all horizontal cabling policies and procedures are met. | ||
4. | All tenant cabling shall be installed parallel to or at 90 degree angles to the building’s exterior walls and tenant hallways. Cabling shall be routed from the tenant communication backboard to the tenant communication outlets in bundles above hallways were possible. Under no circumstances shall cabling be installed in a radial “spider web” fashion. | ||
5. | All cabling shall be independently supported on J-hooks suspended from the building structure. Cabling shall not be attached to existing conduit, ducts, pipes or cable systems for support. | ||
6. | All cabling shall be terminated in Landlord approved wall plates or patch panels, which shall be permanently attached to the walls of the tenant suite or shall be installed in telecommunications closets to Landlord-approved specifications. | ||
7. | In an emergency or upon 24-hour advance notice from the Landlord, all telecommunication spaces, pathways, cables, and equipment shall be made available for inspection by Landlord or Landlord’s designated riser management company to ensure compliance with the above standards.
