Subtenant shall promptly deliver to Sublandlord any information reasonably requested by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s approval of this Sublease. In the event the Consent is not fully executed and delivered within forty five (45) days after the date of this Sublease (which period may be extended by Sublandlord day-for-day if Subtenant delays in providing any reasonable information, signatures or documents required by Landlord in connection with providing its consent), Sublandlord shall have the right to cancel this Sublease by giving written notice of such cancellation to Subtenant at any time after such 45-day period (as the same may be extended pursuant to this Section 1.2) and prior to receipt of the fully executed Consent, whereupon Sublandlord shall promptly refund to Subtenant all amounts previously paid by Subtenant to Sublandlord in connection with this Sublease and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder. Sublandlord shall pay for any fees paid to Landlord in connection with Landlord’s consent to this Sublease.
2. Term and Early Access.
2.1 Term. Subject to receipt of the Consent and the Security Deposit, the term of this Sublease (the “Term”) shall commence on the earlier to occur of (a) July 1, 2019 or (b) the date that Subtenant commences beneficial occupancy of the Subleased Premises (the “Commencement Date”) and shall end at 11:59 p.m. on May 31, 2023 (the “Expiration Date”), unless sooner terminated pursuant to any provision hereof. Subtenant has no right to retain possession of the Subleased Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease. Subject to receipt of the Consent and the Security Deposit, and provided Subtenant has delivered evidence of all insurance as required pursuant to Article 11 of the Master Lease and as required hereunder, Subtenant shall be granted access to the Premises during business hours only not earlier than June I, 2019 for the purpose of facilitating validation of cleanroom.
2.2 Condition of Subleased Premises. Subtenant shall have the right to use of the furniture, equipment and fixtures remaining in the Master Lease Premises on the Commencement Date, without representation or warranty and in its present “as is” condition (the “FF&E”)( See Exhibit B for a detailed listing). Subtenant agrees that Sublandlord has no obligation to perform any alterations, repairs or improvements therein or thereto or to provide any allowance therefor. No representations have been made to Subtenant concerning the condition of the Master Lease Premises or the FF&E, nor have any promises to alter or improve the Master Lease Premises or FF&E been made by Sublandlord or any party on behalf of Sublandlord. Subtenant shall be permitted to use the FF&E throughout the Sublease Term, and shall generally maintain and repair the same. Provided that Subtenant is not in default of the terms of this Sublease and has timely surrendered the Master Lease Premises in accordance with this Sublease, for $1.00, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by Sublandlord, title to the FF&E shall transfer to Subtenant on the Expiration Date of this Sublease without the need for either party to execute any additional documents. If Subtenant is in default at the time of expiration or earlier termination of the Sublease, Sublandlord may, at its option, elect by delivery of written notice to retain title to the FF&E. Sublandlord shall have no obligation to furnish, render, pay for, consent to or supply any work, labor, services, materials, furniture, fixtures, equipment, decorations or other items to make the Subleased Premises ready or suitable for Subtenant’s occupancy.

3.1 Base Rent. Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord base rent for the Subleased Premises (“Base Rent”) for the initial year of the Term in a monthly amount equal to Sixty Five Thousand Four Hundred Thirty Eight Dollars ($65,438.00). Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided so long as no Default occurs and be continuing by Subtenant under the Sublease, no Base Rent shall be due during the initial ten (10) full months of the Term (however, Additional Rent shall be due and payable during such time). In the event of any uncured Default by Subtenant at any time during the Term, the full amount of all abated Base Rent shall be deemed immediately due and payable to Sublandlord, in addition to all other rights and remedies of Sublandlord. Upon the first anniversary of the Commencement Date and annually thereafter, Base Rent shall increase by three percent (3%). Base Rent shall be paid without deduction or offset on the first day of each month of the Term from and after the first day of the second month of the Term. If the Term does not begin on the first day of a calendar month or end on the last day of a calendar month, the monthly Base Rent for any such partial month shall be prorated by multiplying the monthly Base Rent by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days of the partial calendar month included in the Term and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the full calendar month. All Rent (as defined below) shall be payable in lawful money of the United States to Sublandlord at the address stated herein or to such other persons or at such other places as Sublandlord may designate in writing.

4. Security Deposit.
4.1 Cash Deposit. The Security Deposit is not an advance Rent deposit, an advance payment of any other kind, or a measure of Sublandlord’s damage in case of Subtenant’s default. If Subtenant is in default under or otherwise fails to perform any obligation of this Sublease, including but not limited to the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, then Sublandlord, without prejudice to any other right or remedy it may have, may use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other amount which Sublandlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Subtenant’s default or failure to perform, to repair damages to any part of the Subleased Premises or the Building, to clean the Subleased Premises or to compensate Sublandlord for any other loss or damage which Sublandlord may suffer by reason of Subtenant’s breach. Following any application of the Security Deposit, as applicable, Subtenant shall, within five (5) days following Sublandlord’s demand, restore the Security Deposit to their full original amount, as applicable, and Subtenant’s failure to restore the Security Deposit shall be deemed a Default hereunder without the necessity of any additional notice or cure period. In the event of bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings filed by or against Subtenant, the Security Deposit shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of Rent and other charges due Sublandlord for all periods prior to the effective date of such proceedings. Sublandlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Subtenant shall not be entitled to interest on the Security Deposit. If Subtenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Sublease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit or any unapplied balance thereof shall be returned to Subtenant within forty-five (45) days following the later to occur of (x) the Expiration Date and (y) Subtenant’s vacation and surrender of the Subleased Premises and completion of all repairs, restoration and renewal obligations hereunder.
4.2 Letter of Credit.
4.2.1 Generally. At Subtenant’s election, and in lieu of the Security Deposit required under the terms of Section 4.1 above, concurrently with Subtenant’s execution and delivery of this Sublease to Sublandlord, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord, as collateral for the full performance by Subtenant of all of its obligations under this Sublease (including, but not limited to, any post lease termination damages under Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code), a standby, unconditional, irrevocable, transferable (with Subtenant responsible for the payment of any transfer fee or charge imposed by the Issuing Bank, as defined below) letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) in such form approved in writing in advance by Sublandlord, and containing the terms required herein, in the face amount of the Letter of Credit Amount, as set forth in Section 3.2.2, naming Sublandlord as beneficiary, issued (or confirmed) by a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord (the “Issuing Bank”), permitting multiple and partial draws thereon from a location in San Francisco, California (or, alternatively, permitting draws via overnight courier or facsimile in a manner reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord), and otherwise in form acceptable to Sublandlord in its reasonable discretion. The Letter of Credit shall be “callable” at sight upon presentation of the statement required thereunder, permit partial draws and multiple presentations and drawings, and be otherwise subject to the International Standby Practices-ISP 98, International Chamber of Commerce Publication #590. In the event of an assignment by Subtenant of its interest in this Sublease (and irrespective of whether Sublandlord’s consent is required for such assignment), the acceptance of any replacement or substitute letter of credit by Sublandlord from the assignee shall be subject to Sublandlord’s prior written approval, in Sublandlord’s commercially reasonable discretion, and the attorneys’ fees incurred by Sublandlord in connection with such determination shall be payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord within ten (10) Business Days after billing. Subtenant shall cause the Letter of Credit to be continuously maintained in effect (whether through replacement, amendment, renewal or extension) in the Letter of Credit Amount through the date (the “Final LC Expiration Date”) that is the later to occur of (x) the date that is sixty (60) days after the scheduled expiration of the Term and (y) the date that is sixty (60) days after Subtenant vacates the Subleased Premises. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Letter of Credit must contain a so-called “evergreen provision,” whereby the Letter of Credit automatically will be renewed unless at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of non-renewal is provided by the Issuing Bank to Sublandlord; provided, however, that the final expiration date identified in the Letter of Credit, beyond which the Letter of Credit shall not renew automatically, shall not be earlier than the Final LC Expiration Date. Subtenant shall neither assign nor encumber the Letter of Credit or any part thereof. Neither Sublandlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance by Subtenant in violation of this Section 21.3(a). If the Letter of Credit held by Sublandlord expires 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), Subtenant shall deliver a new or amended Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension to Sublandlord not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration or termination of the Letter of Credit then held by Sublandlord. Any renewal, amended or replacement Letter of Credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 21.3.
4
4.2.2 Drawing under Letter of Credit. Sublandlord, or its then managing agent, without prejudice to any other remedy provided in this Sublease or by law, shall have the right to draw down an amount up to the face amount of the Letter of Credit if any of the following shall have occurred or be applicable: (i) Subtenant is in Default, (ii) Subtenant has failed to pay Rent timely and has filed a voluntary petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any State bankruptcy code (collectively, “Bankruptcy Code”), (iii) Subtenant has failed to pay Rent timely and an involuntary petition has been filed against Subenant under the Bankruptcy Code, or (iv) the Issuing Bank has notified Sublandlord that the Letter of Credit will not be renewed or extended through the Final LC Expiration Date and Subtenant fails timely to provide a replacement Letter of Credit pursuant to the requirements stated above (the events described in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, collectively, being referred to herein as an “Insolvency Event”). Upon any such draw, Landlord may draw all or any part of the Letter of Credit as set forth in this Section 4.2.
4.2.3 Use of Proceeds by Sublandlord. The proceeds of any draw upon the Letter of Credit that are not used to pay for damages for which Subtenant then is liable under the Lease (the “Unused Proceeds”) shall be held as a cash Security Deposit pursuant to Section 4.1, and 4.2 hereof. Any Unused Proceeds shall be paid by Sublndlord to Subtenant (x) upon receipt by Sublandlord of a replacement Letter of Credit in the full Letter of Credit Amount, which replacement Letter of Credit shall comply in all respects with the requirements of this Section 4.2, or (y) within thirty (30) days after the Final LC Expiration Date.
4.2.4 Additional Covenants of Subtenant.
(a) Replacement of Letter of Credit if Issuing Bank no longer satisfactory to Sublandlord. If, at any time during the Term, Sublandlord determines that (A) the Issuing Bank is closed for any reason, whether by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), by any other governmental authority, or otherwise, or (B) the Issuing Bank fails to meet all of the following ratings standards as to its short-term unsecured debt obligations (not supported by third-party credit enhancement): (w) “P-1” or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, or its successor, (x) “A-1” or better by Standard & Poor’s Rating Service, or its successor; (y) “Fl” or better by Fitch Ratings, or its successor; and (z) any comparable rating from another rating agency acceptable to Sublandlord, or (C) the Issuing Bank is no longer considered to be well capitalized under the “Prompt Corrective Action” rules of the FDIC (as disclosed by the Issuing Bank’s Report of Condition and Income (commonly known as the “Call Report”) or otherwise), or (D) the Issuing Bank has been placed into receivership by the FDIC, or has entered into any other form of regulatory or governmental receivership, conservatorship or other similar regulatory or governmental proceeding, or otherwise is declared insolvent or downgraded by the FDIC or other governmental authority (any of the foregoing, an “Issuing Bank Credit Event”), then, within ten (10) days following Sublandlord’s notice to Subtenant, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord a new Letter of Credit meeting the terms of this Section 4.2 issued by an Issuing Bank meeting Sublandlord’s then-current credit rating standards and otherwise reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord, in which event, Landlord shall return to Subtenant the previously held Letter of Credit. If Subtenant fails timely to deliver such replacement Letter of Credit to Sublandlord, such failure shall be deemed a Default by Subtenant under this Sublease, without the necessity of additional notice or the passage of additional grace periods, entitling Sublandlord to draw upon the Letter of Credit.
5
(b) Replacement of Letter of Credit upon Draw. If, as result of any application or use by Sublandlord of all or any part of the Letter of Credit, the amount of the Letter of Credit plus any cash proceeds previously drawn by Sublandlord and not applied pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.2 shall be less than the Letter of Credit Amount, Subtenant shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, provide Sublandlord with additional Letter(s) of Credit in an amount equal to the deficiency (or a replacement or amended Letter of Credit in the total Letter of Credit Amount), and any such additional (or replacement or amended) Letter of Credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 4.2; notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sublease, if Subtenant fails timely to comply with the foregoing, the same shall constitute a Default by Subtenant under this Sublease, without the necessity of additional notice or the passage of additional grace periods.
5. Parking. As per Master Lease.
6. Assignment and Subletting.
6.1 Subtenant may not assign this Sublease, sublet the Subleased Premises, transfer any interest of Subtenant therein or permit any use of the Subleased Premises by another party (collectively, “Transfer”), without the prior written consent of Sublandlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Landlord, as required under the Master Lease. Consent to one Transfer shall not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent Transfer. Any Transfer without consent by Sublandlord and Landlord shall be voidable and, at the option of Sublandlord, shall terminate this Sublease. Sublandlord’s waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall be ineffective unless set forth in writing, and Subtenant shall not be relieved from any of its obligations under this Sublease unless the consent expressly so provides.

6.2 Any Transfer shall be subject to the terms of Article 14 of the Master Lease; provided, however, that Subtenant acknowledges that (a) this Sublease, and any incorporation of the Master Lease into this Sublease, does not bind Landlord; (b) Sublandlord’s consent is conditioned upon Sublandlord’s obtaining the consent of Landlord to each Transfer; and (c) Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord any profits, after deducting Subtenant’s costs including but not limited to legal fees, brokerage fees and marketing costs and any portion payable to Landlord.
7. Use and Occupancy.
7.1 Use. The Subleased Premises shall be used and occupied by Subtenant in accordance with the Tenant’s Use of the Master Lease Premises specified in Article 1.8 of the Master Lease and for no other purpose.
7.2 Compliance with Master Lease.
(a) Subtenant agrees that it will occupy the Subleased Premises in accordance with the terms of the Master Lease and will not knowingly suffer to be done or omit to do any act which may result in a violation of or a default under any of the terms and conditions of the Master Lease, or render Sublandlord liable for any damage, charge or expense thereunder. Subtenant further covenants and agrees to indemnify Sublandlord against and hold Sublandlord harmless from any claim, demand, action, proceeding, suit, liability, loss, judgment, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of, by reason of, or resulting from, Subtenant’s failure to perform or observe any of the terms and conditions of the Master Lease or this Sublease. Sublandlord covenants and agrees to indemnify Subtenant against and hold Subtenant harmless from any claim, demand, action, proceeding, suit, liability, loss, judgment, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever which Subtenant may incur or pay out by reason of (i) any acts, omissions or gross negligence of Sublandlord in or about the Subleased Premises (except to the extent caused by Subtenant’s negligence), or (ii) any breach or default by Sublandlord under the Master Lease or this Sublease.
(b) Subtenant agrees that Sublandlord shall not be required to perform any of the covenants, agreements and/or obligations of Landlord under the Master Lease and, insofar as any of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Sublandlord hereunder are required to be performed under the Master Lease by Landlord thereunder, Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that Sublandlord shall be entitled to look to Landlord for such performance. In addition, Sublandlord shall have no obligation to perform any improvements or repairs or any other obligation of Landlord under the Master Lease. Sublandlord shall not be responsible for any failure or interruption, for any reason whatsoever, of the services or facilities that may be appurtenant to or supplied to the Master Lease Premises by Landlord or otherwise, including, without limitation, heat, air conditioning, ventilation, life-safety, water, electricity, elevator service and cleaning service, if any; and no failure to furnish, or interruption of, any such services or facilities shall give rise to any abatement, diminution or reduction of Subtenant’s obligations under this Sublease, or any liability on the part of Sublandlord unless such failure or interruption is caused by Sublandlord; provided, however, if Sublandlord is entitled to any rent abatement or reduction under the Master Lease, then Subtenant shall be entitled to the same rights as Sublandlord under this Sublease with respect to the Subleased Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Master Lease in effect, and provided that there is no uncured default hereunder by Subtenant, upon Subtenant’s request to Sublandlord to do so, Sublandlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts, as reasonably indicated under the circumstances, to obtain the performance by Landlord of its obligations under the Master Lease and/or to obtain the consent or approval of Landlord of any action Subtenant desires to take that requires such consent or approval; provided, however, if Landlord defaults under the Master Lease or fails to perform any of its obligations under the Master Lease after receipt of written notice from Sublandlord of such failure, Sublandlord shall either institute legal proceedings against Landlord directly, or assign to Sublandlord’s rights under the Master Lease to Subtenant to the extent necessary to permit Subtenant to institute legal proceedings against the Landlord to obtain performance of Landlord’s obligations under the Master Lease. If Sublandlord fails to abide by the provision set forth in the previous sentence, Subtenant shall have the right to take such action and institute legal proceedings in the name of Sublandlord, and for the purpose and to such extent, all rights and remedies of Sublandlord under the Master Lease are hereby conferred upon and assigned to Subtenant. Subtenant hereby waives and releases any right it may have under applicable law to make repairs at Sublandlord’s expense.

(d) Sublandlord reserves the right (i) on not less than one (1) day’s written notice to Subtenant, to inspect the Subleased Premises, and (ii) following a default by Subtenant (beyond applicable notice and cure periods), or to enter upon the Subleased Premises, with reasonable prior notice, and to take such actions or cause such things to be done as may be necessary or appropriate in order to cure any Subtenant default under this Sublease or under the Master Lease. All such sums paid, and all reasonable costs and expenses of performing any such act, shall be deemed additional Rent payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord upon demand, together with interest thereon at a rate of ten percent (10%) from the date of the expenditure until repaid.
(e) Subtenant shall have no responsibility or liability for (i) making improvements or alterations to the Subleased Premises in order to comply with changes in laws unless such improvements are necessitated by Subtenant’s alterations or particular use of the Subleased Premises, or (ii) any non-compliance with any laws or requirements that are in existence as of the Commencement Date of this Sublease. In no event shall Subtenant be responsible or liable for any structural improvements or modifications to the Subleased Premises or the Building or any base building upgrades. Subtenant shall have no obligation to repair or restore the Building or the Subleased Premises in the event of any casualty or governmental taking, or the payment of any costs relating to the repair or restoration of the Building as a result of such casualty or taking.

Subtenant hereby expressly agrees for the benefit of Landlord: (a) to abide by the provisions of the Master Lease to the extent applicable to the Subleased Premises; (b) that this Sublease (and all further subleases of any portion of the Subleased Premises) shall terminate upon any termination of the Master Lease, regardless of whether or not such termination is voluntary; (c) in the event of a termination of the Master Lease by reason of Sublandlord’s default or in the event of a mutually agreed termination, at Landlord’s option, this Sublease shall terminate, or Subtenant shall attorn to Landlord; and (d) to be bound by all waivers for the benefit of Landlord under the Master Lease. Subtenant agrees that Landlord shall be an express third-party beneficiary of the foregoing provisions and that in no event shall Subtenant or any occupant of the Subleased Premises possess or enjoy any rights or remedies in excess of those rights and remedies granted to Sublandlord under the Master Lease.

9. Incorporation of Master Lease. The terms, covenants and conditions of the Master Lease are hereby incorporated into this Sublease as they apply to the Subleased Premises, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. The terms, conditions and respective obligations of Sublandlord and Subtenant to each other under this Sublease shall be the terms and conditions of the Master Lease except for those provisions of the Master Lease which are directly contradicted by this Sublease in which event the terms of this Sublease shall control over the Master Lease.

2.1.7. | A breach of, or a default by Tenant under this Lease (including, without limitation Exhibit C) which remains uncured after expiration of applicable notice and cure periods. |
Except as expressly set forth herein, Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for any delays in the delivery of possession and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as the result of such delays. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary elsewhere herein, if the Delivery Date has not occurred (i) on or before November 15, 2015 for reasons other than due to Tenant Delays or Force Majeure, Tenant shall be entitled to rent abatement of one (1) day for each day of delay after November 15, 2015, (ii) on or before December 15, 2015 for reasons other than due to Tenant Delays or Force Majeure, Tenant shall be entitled to rent abatement of two (2) days for each day of delay after December 15, 2015, and (iii) in the event the Delivery Date does not occur on or before January 15, 2016, Tenant, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord at any time prior to the date the Delivery Date actually occurs, provided, such delay is not the direct result of a Tenant Delay.

Landlord represents that the exterior of the Building will conform to governmental regulations, including ADA (as defined below) upon completion of the Landlord’s Work; however, Tenant acknowledges that some exterior ADA-compliance work to 0000-0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx may remain to be done by Landlord following the Commencement Date, such that (i) the Commencement Date will not be delayed or deferred thereby, and (ii) completion of remaining items of Landlord’s Work shall not prohibit Tenant from obtaining or maintaining, in connection with the Tenant Improvements, final permit sign-off and any other approval which is required from the City of Santa Xxxxx in order for Tenant to legally occupy the Premises, and Landlord shall complete same with reasonable diligence, whereupon Landlord’s warranty with respect to such work at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx shall fully apply. Landlord further represents that, subject to Tenant’s completion of the Tenant Improvements, all structural elements and existing subsystems of the Premises, including but not limited to HVAC, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, life safety and sprinkler systems (collectively, the “Building Systems”) are in good working condition and repair upon the Delivery Date.

3.1.3. | Within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives the Exercise Notice, Landlord shall provide in writing to Tenant its estimate of the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises for the Extension Term. Landlord and Tenant shall for an additional thirty (30) days thereafter attempt in good faith to agree on the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises for the Extension Term. If Landlord and Tenant agree on the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises for the Extension Term during such thirty (30) day period, they shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating the Monthly Rent for the Extension Term. |
3.1.4. | If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Monthly Rent for the Extension Term within the thirty (30) day period described in the second sentence in Paragraph 3.1.3, then within ten (10) days after the expiration of said thirty (30) day period, either Landlord or Tenant may |
Page 6
refer the matter to arbitration as provided for in this Paragraph 3.1.4. The determination of the arbitrator(s) shall be limited to the sole issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Rental Value is the closest to the actual Fair Market Rental Value as determined by the arbitrator(s). The arbitrator(s) must be a neutral licensed real estate broker(s) who has/have been active in the leasing of commercial properties in the Santa Clara, California area over the five (5) year period ending on the date of his/her/their appointment as arbitrator(s). Landlord and Tenant reserve the right to object to any arbitrator that has conducted business with the other party at any time over the three (3) year period ending on the date of his/her/their appointment as arbitrator(s). Within thirty (30) days after the date either Landlord or Tenant has referred to arbitration the determination of Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises (the “Arbitration Referral Date”), Landlord and Tenant shall each (i) appoint one arbitrator and notify the other party of the arbitrator’s name and business address, and (ii) notify the other party of their determination of Fair Market Rental Value. If each party timely appoints an arbitrator, the two (2) arbitrators shall, within fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator, agree on and appoint a third arbitrator (who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth above for qualification of the initial two (2) arbitrators) and provide notice to Landlord and Tenant of the arbitrator’s name and business address. Within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the third arbitrator, the three (3) arbitrators shall decide whether the parties will use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Rental Value and shall notify Landlord and Tenant of their decision. The decision of the majority of the three (3) arbitrators shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the Arbitration Referral Date, the arbitrator timely appointed by one of them shall reach a decision and notify Landlord and Tenant of that decision within thirty (30) days after the arbitrator’s appointment. The arbitrator’s decision shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant. If each party appoints an arbitrator in a timely manner, but the two (2) arbitrators fail to agree on and appoint a third arbitrator within the required period, the arbitrators shall be dismissed without delay and the issue of Fair Market Rental Value shall be submitted to binding arbitration under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), provided that in the event of any inconsistency between such arbitration rules and the terms and conditions of this Paragraph 3.1.4, the terms and conditions of this Paragraph 3.1.4 shall govern; and provided, further however, that the sole function of the AAA arbitrator shall be to select either Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Rental Value. If Landlord and Tenant each fail to appoint an arbitrator in a timely manner, the matter to be decided shall be submitted without delay to binding arbitration under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 3.1.4. If only one of the parties has given notice of its determination of Fair Market Rental Value within thirty (30) days after the Arbitration Referral Date, then such determination shall be the Fair Market Rental Value for the Premises for the Extension Term. If Landlord and Tenant both fail to give notice of their determination of Fair Market Rental value within thirty (30) days after the Arbitration Referral Date, the determination of Fair Market Rental Value shall be submitted without delay to binding arbitration under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 3.1.4, and provided, further however, that the sole |
Page 7
function of the AAA arbitrator shall be to select either Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Rental Value. The cost of the arbitration as provided for in this Paragraph 3,1.4 shall be paid by the losing party. After the Monthly Rent for the Extension Term has been set, the arbitrator(s) shall immediately notify Landlord and Tenant, and Landlord and Tenant shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating the Monthly Rent for the Extension Term. |
3.2. | Tenant’s Early Termination Option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, provided Tenant is not, at the time of notice, in material default of this Lease beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the last day of the sixty-second (62nd) full Lease Month of the Initial Term (the “Early Termination Date”). To exercise such right, Tenant must provide written notice to Landlord at least twelve (12) months prior to the Early Termination Date. If Tenant elects to terminate this Lease early as provided herein, the Early Termination Date shall operate as if that date were the time originally fixed for the termination of this Lease and this Lease shall come to an end with the same force and effect as if such Early Termination Date were the date herein provided for the normal expiration hereof; provided that, if, at the time Tenant provides written notice of exercise of its Early Termination Option, it has already provided Tenant’s Notice of Acceptance to lease the FRL Space (as described in Paragraph 26 below). Tenant’s obligation to lease the FRL Space shall be unaffected by such early termination and shall continue in full force and effect. With Tenant’s notice of exercise, and as a condition to the effectiveness thereof Tenant shall pay to Landlord as an “Early Termination Payment” an amount equal to the sum of (A) $523,437.98, which is the Base Rent that otherwise would have been payable during Lease Months 63-68, inclusive, had Tenant not exercised its Early Termination Option, plus (B) the then-unamortized portion, as of the Early Termination Date, of the sum of (i) the Tenant Improvement Allowance, plus (ii) all brokers’ fees and commissions paid by Landlord in connection with this Lease, with the costs listed in clauses (i) and (ii) above inclusive to be amortized over an eighty-four (84) month period beginning on the Lease Commencement Date. Further, all provisions of this Lease that are to become effective on the termination of this Lease shall become operative or effective on the Early Termination Date. Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease early shall automatically terminate and become null and void upon the earlier to occur of: (I) the occurrence of any uncured event of default (beyond the expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods) by Tenant of any monetary obligation hereunder, (2) the termination of Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, (3) the termination of this Lease, (4) any assignment or transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or substantially all of Tenant’s interest in this Lease (other than to a Permitted Transferee), or (5) the failure of Tenant to timely or properly exercise the Early Termination Option as aforesaid. |
4. | Rent Payment. |
4.1. | Base Rent; Additional Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Base Rent for the Premises set forth in the Basic Lease Terms and all amounts other than Base Rent that this Lease requires |
Page 8
(“Additional Rent”) without demand, deduction or offset. As used herein, “Rent” or “rent” shall mean Base Rent and Additional Rent. Payment shall be made in U.S. currency payable to Landlord and mailed to the address for rent payments as set forth above or as otherwise may be designated in writing by Landlord, or at the election of Tenant by wire transfer to Landlord directed as follows: |
To:
ABA No.:
Account No.:
The foregoing wiring instructions are subject to change upon reasonable prior notice by Landlord. Simultaneous with Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the following amounts to be applied as set forth below:
4.1.1. | Base Rent to be applied toward Base Rent due for the first (1st) month of the Lease Term shall be $75,253.70. |
4.1.2. | Estimated payment of Operating Expenses and Taxes in the amount of $12,589.53 to be applied toward Additional Rent due for the first month of the Lease Term. |
Thereafter, Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be payable in advance on the first day of each month during the Lease Term. Base Rent and Additional Rent for any partial month during the Lease Term shall be prorated to reflect the number of days during the relevant month. Payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of any amount less than the full Base Rent or Additional Rent due from Tenant, or any disbursement or statement on any check or letter accompanying any check or rent payment, shall not in any event be deemed an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rental or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.
4.2. | Payment; Lockbox. Tenant shall pay Base Rent, Additional Rent or other charges under this Lease to Landlord or Landlord’s Agents at the management office of the Project, or, at Landlord’s option, at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, by a check for currency which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for private or public debts in the United States of America, or at Tenant’s election, by wire transfer. Landlord or Landlord’s bank may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease, at law or in equity. At Landlord’s election, Tenant shall pay Base Rent, Additional Rent or other charges under this Lease to a “lockbox” or other depository whereby wire transfers or checks issued in payment of such items, as applicable, are initially cashed or deposited by a person or entity other than Landlord (albeit on Landlord’s authority); for any and all purposes under this Lease: (i) Landlord shall not be deemed to have accepted such payment until the date on which such funds are actually received by Landlord or the “lockbox”, (ii) Landlord shall be deemed to have accepted such payment if (and only it) Landlord shall not have immediately refunded (or attempted to immediately refund) such payment to Tenant and (iii) if Tenant has not elected, |
Page 9
as provided above, to make payments required by this Lease via wire transfer and instead makes such payments via check, Landlord shall not be bound by any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment and no such endorsement, statement or letter shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction. |
5. | Security Deposit. |
Simultaneous with Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord, Tenant shall pay the Security Deposit in the amount set forth in the Basic Lease Terms, as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this Lease. Landlord may commingle the Security Deposit with its funds and shall have no obligation to pay any interest on the Security Deposit. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provisions of this Lease (which default remains uncured following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods), Landlord shall have the right to offset against the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default. Offset against the Security Deposit shall not be an exclusive remedy in any of the above cases but may be invoked by Landlord, at its option, in addition to any other remedy provided by law or this Lease for Tenant’s nonperformance. Landlord shall give notice to Tenant each time an offset is claimed against the Security Deposit, and unless the Lease is terminated, Tenant shall within ten (10) business days after such notice restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Tenant’s failure to make such deposit after offset shall be a default under this Lease. Any remaining balance of such Security Deposit shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant (or at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant) within forty-five (45) days following the expiration of the Lease Term. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, or any successor statute, and agrees that Landlord may hold and apply the Security Deposit to future rent damages.
6. | Use of the Premises; Hazardous Materials. |
6.1. | Permitted Use: CC&Rs. Subject to Tenant’s acknowledgment set forth in Paragraph 2.2, the Premises shall be used for the Permitted Use set forth in the Basic Lease Terms and for no other purpose without Landlord’s prior written consent which may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. Tenant agrees that the Premises are subject and this Lease is subordinate to the CC&Rs. Tenant acknowledges receipt of a copy of the CC&Rs and further acknowledges that it has read the CC&Rs and knows the contents thereof. From and after the Commencement Date and continuing through the Lease Term, Tenant shall faithfully and timely perform and comply in all material respect, with the existing recorded CC&Rs and any modification or amendments thereof, provided any such modifications or amendments to the CC&Rs do not materially diminish Tenant’s rights nor materially increase Tenant’s obligations under the Lease and Tenant is promptly provided a copy of any such modification or amendment. |

(ii) Prior to its use thereof, Tenant must install at its sole cost fencing or other barrier to enclose the Exterior Storage Area and separate it from the remainder of the Outside Area. Such fencing or barrier must be high enough to accommodate any roof/covering required elsewhere in this Section 6.2.3, be made of opaque, noncombustible materials, and must include signage/placards and a locking gate with an emergency exit bar for emergency egress from the Exterior Storage Area.
(iii) All Hazardous Materials (as defined below) proposed to be stored by Tenant in the Exterior Storage Area must be separated by compatibility and include a firewall with at least 20 ft of separation.

Page 13
6.4.2. | Together with Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent to any Alterations other than Permitted Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord preliminary plans and specifications prepared by a California licensed architect for the proposed Alterations (the “Preliminary Plans and Specifications”). The Preliminary Plans and Specifications shall be in sufficient detail to enable Landlord to fully understand the nature and scope of the proposed Alterations and the potential effect of the proposed Alterations on the Building and Project and shall include, as and if required by Landlord as part of Landlord’s review, full architectural and engineering plans and specifications for the proposed Alterations. Without limiting the foregoing, the Preliminary Plans and Specifications for any proposed Major Alterations shall include full architectural and engineering plans. If Landlord does not approve the Preliminary Plans and Specifications within ten (10) days after receipt. Landlord shall promptly return the Preliminary Plans and Specifications to Tenant, who shall make all necessary revisions after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s revisions thereto.

The approved Preliminary Plans and Specifications, as modified, shall be deemed the “Construction Documents”. Once the Construction Documents have been approved, no further changes to the Construction Documents may be made without prior written approval from both Landlord (pursuant to this Paragraph 6.4) and Tenant. While Landlord has the right to approve the Preliminary Plans and Specifications and the Construction Documents. Landlord’s interest in doing so is to protect the Premises and Landlord’s interests. Accordingly, Tenant shall not rely upon Landlord’s approvals and Landlord shall not be the guarantor of, nor responsible for, the correctness or accuracy of the Preliminary Plans and Specifications and/or the Construction Documents, or the compliance thereof with Applicable Law, and Landlord shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of granting such approvals. |
6.4.3. | Tenant shall be permitted, without Landlord’s prior written consent provided that Tenant complies with all other terms and conditions of this Paragraph 6.4, to make nonstructural Alterations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make Alterations to the interior of the Premises following twenty (20) days’ notice to Landlord, provided such Alterations (i) do not affect the systems and equipment of the Building, exterior appearance of the Building, or structural aspects of the Building, and (ii) do not require a building or construction permit, and (iii) cost less than Thirty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($35,000.00) in cost per calendar year (the “Permitted Alterations”). |
6.4.4. | Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing at least twenty (20) days prior to commencement of any such work to enable Landlord to post a Notice of Non Responsibility or other notice deemed proper before the commencement of such work. Any and all such Alterations shall comply with the CC&Rs and all Applicable Laws including, without limitation, obtaining any required permits or other governmental approvals, shall be performed by a California licensed contractor and shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner conforming in quality and |
Page 14
design with the Premises as then currently existing, and shall not diminish the value of the Premises.

All Alterations made by Tenant shall be and become the property of Landlord upon installation and shall not be deemed Tenant’s property unless the terms of the applicable consent provide otherwise. Landlord shall have the right to require that part or all of the Alterations be removed by Tenant upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease; however, when Tenant submits to Landlord for Landlord’s review the plans and specifications for any Alterations. Tenant may request in writing in bold, conspicuous lettering, that Landlord specify whether any portion of such Alterations will be required to be removed upon the termination or earlier expiration of the Lease (any such item, a “Required Removable”). If Tenant provides such written request, Landlord shall identify all such Required Removables, either concurrently with giving its response to the plans and specifications in question where Landlord’s consent is required pursuant to this Lease, or otherwise (i.e. for Permitted Alterations, where Landlord’s consent is not required), within ten (10) business days after Tenant’s request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Tenant shall not be required to remove or pay for the removal of any of the initial Tenant Improvements. With respect to all Required Removables and any other Alterations which Tenant is required hereunder to remove and restore, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly remove the Required Removables and such other Alterations and shall fully repair and restore the relevant portion(s) of the Premises to their condition prior to the making of such Required Removable and/or other Alteration. |
6.5. | Cabling. Tenant shall not install or cause to be installed any cabling or wiring (collectively, “Cabling”) without the prior written consent of Landlord as provided in Paragraph 6.4. Any installation of Cabling shall be performed pursuant to Paragraph 6.4, shall meet the requirements of the National Electrical Code (as may be amended from time to time), and shall comply with the CC&R’s and all Applicable Laws. On or prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall remove all Cabling so installed unless Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects in writing to waive this requirement. Any Cabling removed by Tenant shall be disposed of by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in accordance with all Applicable Laws. |
6.6. | Hazardous Materials. |
6.6.1. | Tenant agrees to complete prior to Lease execution the questionnaire attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit E (the “Hazardous Materials Questionnaire”). Tenant represents and warrants that the information completed by Tenant in the Hazardous Materials Questionnaire is true and complete in all material respects as of the Reference Date.

Page 15
6.6.2. | Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be generated, brought onto, used, stored, released or disposed of on, under, from or about the Premises, the Outside Area, or any other portion of the Project without the prior written consent of Landlord, except for standard office, research and development, light medical manufacturing and lab supplies and standard janitorial supplies which may be Hazardous Materials but only to the extent that such supplies (and the quantities thereof) are normally used in connection with Tenants Permitted Use. Any handling, transportation, storage, treatment, disposal or use of Hazardous Materials by Tenant’s Agent shall strictly comply with all applicable Hazardous Materials Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the expiration of the Lease Term or the earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall comply with all Hazardous Materials Laws relating to the closure of the Premises and/or the removal or remediation of Hazardous Materials present in, on or about the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby acknowledges receipt of Tenant’s Hazardous Materials Questionnaire, and further agrees and acknowledges that the materials set forth therein (the “Permitted Hazardous Materials”) may be generated, brought onto, used, and stored in or on, the Premises and, to the extent expressly permitted elsewhere in this Lease, specific portions of the Outside Area, without further Landlord consent, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Paragraph 6; provided that on or prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall cause all of such Permitted Hazardous Materials to be removed from the Premises, Outside Area, and Project at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and in compliance with all applicable Hazardous Materials Laws. |
6.6.3. | Landlord and Tenant shall each give written notice to the other as soon as reasonably practicable of (i) any Hazardous Materials which relates to the Premises, (ii) any contamination of the Premises by Hazardous Materials which constitutes a violation of any Hazardous Materials Law, and/or (iii) any notice or communication from a governmental agency or any other person relating to any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises; or (iii) any violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws with respect to the Premises or Tenant’s activities on or in connection with the Premises. Tenant and Tenant’s Agents shall not bring Hazardous Materials of types or quantities differing from those set forth in the Hazardous Materials Questionnaire without first obtaining the written permission of the Landlord. At any time during the Lease term, Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days after written request therefor received from Landlord, disclose in writing all Hazardous Materials that are being used by Tenant or Tenant’s Agents on the Premises, the nature of such use, and the manner of storage and disposal. |
6.6.4. | In the event of a spill, leak, disposal or other release of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises, the Outside Area, or any other portion of the Project caused by Tenant or any of its contractors, agents or employees or invitees, Tenant shall (i) immediately undertake all emergency response necessary to contain, cleanup and remove the released Hazardous |
Page 16
Material(s), (ii) promptly undertake all investigatory, remedial, removal and other response action necessary or appropriate to ensure that any Hazardous Materials contamination is eliminated to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, and (iii) provide Landlord copies of all correspondence with any governmental agency regarding the release (or threatened or suspected release) or the response action, a detailed report documenting all such response action, and a certification that any contamination has been eliminated. To the extent required, any such response action shall be performed, all such reports shall be prepared and all such certifications shall be made by an environmental consultant reasonably acceptable to Landlord. |
6.6.5. | If Tenant is not in compliance with any of the provisions of this Section 6, or in the event of a release of any Hazardous Material on, under, from or about the Premises caused or permitted by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, licensees, subtenants or invitees in violation of the provisions of this Lease, Landlord may require Tenant to furnish to Landlord, at Tenant’s sole expense and within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s request therefor, an environmental audit or any environmental assessment with respect to the matters of concern to Landlord.

In addition, Landlord may cause testing xxxxx to be installed on or about the Outside Area, and may cause the ground water to be tested to detect the presence of Hazardous Materials by the use of such tests as are then customarily used for such purposes, provided that Landlord shall use diligent efforts to minimize any inconvenience or disruption to Tenant’s business in connection with such installation. If Tenant so requests, Landlord shall supply Tenant with copies of such test results. The cost of such tests and of the installation, maintenance, repair and replacement of such xxxxx shall be paid by Tenant if such tests disclose the existence of facts which give rise to liability of Tenant pursuant to its indemnity given in Paragraph 6.6.7. |

In exercising any such rights, Landlord shall make a reasonable effort to minimize any disruption of Tenant’s business. In connection with any temporary closure of any portion of the Outside Area for such purposes, Landlord shall make a reasonable effort to not deprive Tenant of reasonable access to the Premises or the ability of Tenant to conduct its business in the ordinary course. It is an express condition precedent to all obligations of Landlord to repair that Tenant shall have notified Landlord of the need for such repairs. |

8. | Taxes, Assessments and Operating Expenses. |
8.1. | Payments. Tenant shall pay Landlord monthly, as Additional Rent, Tenant’s proportionate share of Operating Expenses and Taxes which are, as determined by Landlord, allocable or attributable to the Building, the parcel on which the Building is located, the Outside Area within the parcel on which the Building is located and such other Outside Areas at the Project; provided, however, and notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall pay Landlord, in accordance with this Paragraph 8, the entire amount (and not just Tenant’s proportionate share) of any Operating Expense incurred by Landlord which relates solely to the Premises or which are incurred solely for or on behalf of Tenant. Commencing on the Commencement Date (subject to Paragraph 3) and thereafter in advance on the first day of each month during the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay a monthly sum as Additional Rent representing Tenant’s proportionate share of Taxes and Operating Expenses. Within one hundred eighty (180) days following the end of each calendar year, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement of such actual expenses (“Actual Expenses”) for the calendar year and the payments made by Tenant with respect to such period. If Tenant’s payments for Operating Expenses and Taxes do not equal the amount of the Actual Expenses, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such statement. If Tenant’s payments exceed the Actual Expenses, Landlord shall offset the excess against the Operating Expenses thereafter becoming due to Landlord. There shall be appropriate adjustments of Operating Expenses and Taxes as of the Commencement Date and expiration of the Lease Term. |
8.2. | Tenant’s Proportionate Share. Tenant’s proportionate share of Taxes shall mean that percentage which the Premises Area set forth in the Basic Lease Terms bears to the total rentable square footage of all buildings in the Project located on the same Tax Parcel as the Building. Tenant’s proportionate share of Operating Expenses for the Building shall be computed by dividing the Premises Area by the total rentable area of the Building. If in Landlord’s reasonable judgment either of these methods of allocation results in an inappropriate allocation to Tenant, Landlord shall select some other reasonable method of determining Tenant’s proportionate share. |
8.2.1. | Taxes Charged. As used herein, “Taxes” means any form of assessment, license, fee, rent tax, levy, penalty (if a result of Tenant’s delinquency), or tax (other than net income, estate, succession, inheritance transfer or franchise taxes), imposed by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax, or by any city, county, state or federal government or any improvement or other district or division thereof, whether such tax is: (i) determined by the area of the tax parcel in which the Building is located (the “Tax Parcel”) or any part thereof or the rent and other sums payable hereunder by Tenant or by other tenants, including, but not limited to, any gross income or excise tax levied by any of the foregoing authorities with respect to receipt of such rent or other sums due under this Lease; (ii) imposed upon any legal or equitable interest |
Page 22

Tenant shall not, however, be obligated to pay any tax based upon Landlord’s net income. In addition, Tenant shall be liable for all taxes levied or assessed against any personal property or fixtures placed in the Premises and, when possible, shall cause such taxes to be assessed and billed separately from the real or personal property of Landlord. If any such taxes are levied or assessed against Landlord or Landlord’s property and (i) Landlord pays the same or (ii) the assessed value of Landlord’s property is increased by inclusion of such personal property and fixtures and Landlord pays the increased taxes, then, within thirty (30) days following receipt by Tenant of a copy of the applicable tax xxxx with Landlord’s written request for payment thereof. Tenant shall pay to Landlord such taxes as part of Tenant’s payment of Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Taxes shall not include late fees, penalties, mortgage recording taxes and any interest related to late fees and/or delinquent payments. |

11.2.1. | Tenant shall keep all of Tenant’s property on the Premises insured against fire and other risks covered by a “Causes of Loss - Special Form” property insurance policy in an amount equal to the replacement cost of such property, the proceeds of which shall, so long as this Lease is in effect, be used for the repair or replacement of the property so insured. Tenant shall also carry commercial general liability insurance written on an occurrence basis with policy limits of not less than Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000) each occurrence, which includes blanket contractual liability broad form property damage, personal injury, completed |

operations and products liability. The above initial amount shall be subject to periodic increase based upon inflation, increased liability awards, recommendation of Landlord’s professional insurance advisers and other relevant factors. In addition, if Tenant’s use of the Premises includes any activity or matter that would be excluded from coverage under a commercial general liability policy, Tenant shall obtain such endorsements to the commercial general liability policy or otherwise obtain insurance to insure all liability arising from such activity or matter in such amounts as Landlord may reasonably require. The insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease shall be primary coverage; any insurance required to be maintained by Landlord under this Lease shall be secondary coverage. |
11.2.2. | Such commercial general liability insurance shall be (i) provided by an insurer or insurers who are approved to issue insurance policies in the State in which the Premises is located and have an A.M. Best financial strength rating of A or better and financial size category not less than X in the most current edition of Best’s Insurance Reports, and (ii) shall be evidenced by a certificate delivered to Landlord on or prior to the Commencement Date and annually thereafter stating that the coverage shall not be cancelled or materially altered without thirty (30) days advance written notice to Landlord. Landlord and Landlord’s Agents shall be named as an additional insured on such policy together with, upon written request from Landlord, Landlord’s mortgagee. If Tenant fails to procure and maintain the insurance required hereunder, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, order such insurance at Tenant’s expense and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord. Such reimbursement shall include all costs incurred by Landlord including Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, with interest thereon at the interest rate provided in Paragraph 25.2. |
11.3. | Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant each hereby releases the other, and the other’s partners, officers, directors, members, agents and employees, from any and all liability and responsibility to the releasing party and to anyone claiming by or through it or under it, by way of subrogation or otherwise, for all claims, or demands whatsoever which arise out of damage or destruction of property occasioned by perils which can be insured by a “Causes of Loss - Special Form” and/or “special coverage” insurance form, including endorsements extending coverage to the perils of earthquake, earth movement and flood. Landlord and Tenant grant this release on behalf of themselves and their respective insurance companies and each represents and warrants to the other that it is authorized by its respective insurance company to grant the waiver of subrogation contained in this Paragraph 11.3. This release and waiver shall be binding upon the parties whether or not insurance coverage is in force at the time of the loss or destruction of property referred to in this Paragraph 11.3. |
11.4. | Co-Insurer. If, on account of the failure of Tenant to comply with the foregoing provisions, Landlord is adjudged a co-insurer by its insurance carrier, then, any loss or damage Landlord shall sustain by reason thereof, including attorneys’ fees and costs, shall be borne by Tenant and shall be immediately paid by Tenant upon receipt of a xxxx therefor and evidence of such loss. |
Page 29
11.5. | Landlord’s Disclaimer. Landlord and Landlord’s Agents shall not be liable for any loss or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, glass, tile or sheetrock, steam, gas, electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Building or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein or from the roof, street or subsurface, or any other cause whatsoever, unless caused by or due to the sole negligence or willful acts of Landlord. Tenant shall give prompt written notice to Landlord in case of a casualty, accident or repair needed in the Premises. |
12. | Property Damage. |
12.1. | Notice; Total Destruction. To the extent that Landlord does not have actual knowledge of the casualty, as soon as reasonably practicable following a casualty event Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord if either the Premises or the Building is damaged or destroyed. Within forty-five (45) days after the date of discovery of the damage, Landlord shall provide to Tenant Landlord’s reasonable good faith estimate of the time which Landlord will likely require to complete its repair and restoration obligations (the “Restoration Period Estimate”). If the Premises or the Building should be totally destroyed or so damaged by an insured peril in an amount exceeding thirty percent (30%) of the full construction replacement cost of the Building or Premises, respectively (as used herein, the “Damage Threshold”), Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within forty-five (45) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, in which event all unaccrued rights and obligations of the parties under this Lease shall cease and terminate except to the extent such obligations specifically survive termination of this Lease. |
12.2. | Partial Destruction. Except as set forth in Paragraph 12.7, if the Building or the Premises should be damaged by an insured peril which does not meet the Damage Threshold, or if damage or destruction meeting the Damage Threshold occurs but Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, this Lease shall not terminate and Landlord shall restore the Premises to substantially its previous condition, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, Alterations, additions and other improvements required to he covered by Tenant’s insurance pursuant to Paragraph 11.2.

12.3. | Damage Near End of Lease Term. If the damage to the Premises or Building occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term in an amount exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full construction replacement cost of the Building or Premises, respectively, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date the damage occurred, regardless of the sufficiency of any insurance proceeds. The party electing to terminate this Lease shalt give written notification to the other party of such election within thirty (30) days after Tenants notice to Landlord of the occurrence of the damage, in which event all unaccrued rights and obligations of the parties under this Lease shall cease and terminate except to the extent such obligations specifically survive termination of this Lease. |
Page 30
12.4. | Repair of Damage. Landlord’s good faith estimate of the cost of repairs of any damage, the replacement cost of the Premises or the Building, and as provided in Landlord’s Restoration Period Estimate, the estimated time to complete restoration shall be conclusive as between Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Paragraph 12, restore the Premises, damaged portions of the Outside Area serving the Building, and the Building, as applicable. Such restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the Premises, such portions of the Outside Area, and Building, respectively, prior to the casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Building or Project or any other modifications to the Premises, Outside Area, or Building, respectively, deemed desirable by Landlord, which are consistent with the character of the Project, provided that, upon completion of such restoration, access to and use of the Premises shall not be materially impaired. All insurance proceeds for repairs shall be payable solely to Landlord, and Tenant shall have no interest therein, Nothing herein shall be construed to obligate Landlord to expend monies in excess of the insurance proceeds received by Landlord. Landlord shall be responsible for the insurance deductible, unless the loss is caused by Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, in which case, and notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 11.3, Tenant shall be responsible for the amount of the deductible, Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Landlord’s obligation, should it elect or be obligated to repair or rebuild, shall be limited to the Premises, the Building or the Outside Area as the same existed immediately prior to the casualty, excluding, however, Landlord’s Work and any Alterations made by Tenant. |
12.5. | Other Damage. if the Premises or the Building is substantially or totally destroyed by any cause whatsoever which is not covered by the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 12, this Lease shall terminate as of the date the destruction occurred; provided, however, that if the damage does not meet the Damage Threshold, Landlord may elect (but will not be required) to rebuild the Premises at Landlord’s own expense, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Landlord shall notify Tenant of such election within thirty (30) days after the casualty. |
12.6. | Insurance Proceeds Payable to Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of any termination of this Lease as provided in this Paragraph 12, all insurance proceeds payable under policies maintained by Tenant covering Landlord’s Work and the Alterations made by Tenant shall be assigned and paid to Landlord. |
12.7. | Tenant’s Rights to Terminate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Paragraph 12, in the event either the Premises or Building is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, and (a) Landlord’s Restoration Period Estimate indicates that the restoration obligations of Landlord described above cannot reasonably be completed within the period of two hundred seventy (270) days following the date of such casualty as reasonably determined |
Page 31
by Landlord, or (b) if Landlord undertakes such restoration and subsequently fails to complete the same within two hundred seventy (270) days following the date of the casualty, then in any of such events Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice thereof to Landlord within twenty-one (21) days following receipt by Tenant of Landlord’s estimated timeline to complete repairs if the termination relates to (a) above, or within twenty-one (21) days following Landlord’s failure to timely complete the repairs if the termination relates to (b) above (unless Landlord actually completes such repairs within twenty-one (21) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice of termination). |
13. | Condemnation. |
13.1. | Partial Taking. If a portion of the Premises and/or the Outside Area serving the Premises is condemned and Paragraph 13.2 does not apply, this Lease shall continue on the following terms: |
13.1.1. | Landlord shall be entitled to all of the proceeds of condemnation, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord as a result of the condemnation. Tenant shall, however, be entitled to make a separate claim for moving and relocation expenses and other damages suffered by Tenant, and Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate, at no additional cost to Landlord, with Tenant to the extent such claim must be submitted with those of Landlord provided that in no event shall Landlord’s award be reduced by any claim made by Tenant. |
13.1.2. | Landlord shall proceed as soon as reasonably possible to make such repairs and alterations to the Premises as are necessary to restore the remaining Premises and/or the remaining Outside Area serving the Premises to a condition as comparable as reasonably practicable to that existing at the time of condemnation. Landlord need not incur expenses for restoration in excess of the amount of condemnation proceeds received by Landlord after payment of all reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys fees incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. |
13.1.3. | Rent shall be abated during the period of restoration to the extent the Premises are not reasonably usable by Tenant for the use permitted by Paragraph 6.1, and rent shall be reduced for the remainder of the Lease Term in an amount equal to the reduction in rental value of the Premises caused by the taking. |
13.2. | Total Taking. Either party may terminate this Lease if any material part of the Premises is 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 be entitled to all of the proceeds of condemnation, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord as a result of such condemnation, except for any portions of such award or proceeds which are specifically allocated by a court of competent jurisdiction for the taking of or damage to trade fixtures of Tenant, Tenants moving expenses or any other damages personal to Tenant as determined by the court which if sought by or paid to Tenant will not reduce the award to which Landlord would in the absence of such payment be entitled to claim for its account. If only a part of the Premises is subject to a Taking and this Lease is not terminated, Landlord, with reasonable |
Page 32
diligence, will restore the remaining portion of the Premises as nearly as practicable to the condition immediately prior to the Taking. Tenant agrees that the provisions of this Lease shall govern any Taking and shall accordingly supersede any contrary statute or rule of law. |
14. | Assignment, Subletting and Other Transfers. |
14.1. | General. Except with respect to a Permitted Transfer (as defined below), neither the Lease nor any part of the Premises may be assigned, mortgaged, subleased or otherwise transferred, nor may a right of use of any portion of the Premises be conferred on any person or entity by any other means, without the prior written consent of Landlord which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Prior to effectuating any such assignment, sublease or other transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of the name and address of the proposed transferee, and deliver to Landlord with such notice a true and complete copy of the proposed assignment agreement, sublease or other occupancy agreement, current financial statements of such proposed transferee, a statement of the use of the Premises by such proposed transferee and such other information or documents as may be necessary or appropriate to enable Landlord to determine the qualifications of the proposed transferee together with a request that Landlord consent thereto (“Tenant’s Notice”). Should Landlord request confidential items such as financial information, Landlord shall sign a commercially reasonable non-disclosure agreement with whichever party is providing the confidential information, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both parties. Without limiting Landlord’s ability to deny or condition consent for any other reason, it shall not be considered unreasonable if Landlord’s consent to a proposed sublease, assignment or other transfer is denied based on the following: (i) the business of the proposed transferee (A) is not compatible with the nature and character of the Project or the businesses in the Project and/or (B) will conflict with any exclusive uses or use restrictions that Landlord has granted to other occupants of the Project (as of the Reference Date of this Lease, there are no such exclusive uses or use restrictions), (ii) the financial strength of the proposed transferee is not at least equal to the financial strength of Tenant either at the time Tenant entered into this Lease or at the time of the proposed transfer (whichever is greater), (iii) excessively overpark the Building and/or the Project with automobiles or trucks (excessively overpark shall mean that the proposed transferee’s parking will violate local parking restrictions or will interfere with other tenants occupying the Building or the Project), (iv) the proposed transferee has a record of environmental contamination or their anticipated use of the Premises involves the generation, storage, use, sale, treatment, release or disposal of any Hazardous Materials, (v) the proposed form of sublease, assignment or other occupancy agreement is unacceptable (unacceptable form of sublease, assignment or other occupancy agreement shall mean that the content and format of the form are not consistent with the terms of this Lease or the CC&R’s or are not consistent with the terms and requirements of Landlord’s loan documents for the Building), (vi) the proposed transferee is a governmental entity or agency or non-profit entity, or (vii) the proposed transferee is a party with whom Landlord has been, within the prior three months, actually negotiating to lease space at the Project. Any attempted assignment, subletting, transfer or encumbrance by Tenant in violation of the terms and covenants of this Paragraph 14.1 shall be void. |
Page 33
14.2. | Landlord’s Alternatives. Except in the event of a Permitted Transfer (which shall not be subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 14.2), within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the information specified in Xxxxxxxxx 00.0, Xxxxxxxx shall, by written notice to Tenant, elect: (i) if the proposed transfer is a sublease, then to terminate this Lease as of the commencement date stated in the proposed sublease with respect to all or any portion of the Premises Tenant proposes to sublease, or if the proposed transfer is an assignment of Tenant’s interest in the Lease, then to terminate this Lease as of the commencement date stated in the proposed assignment; (ii) to consent to the transfer by Tenant; or (iii) to refuse its consent to the transfer. If Landlord proceeds under clause (ii) of this Paragraph 14.2 and consents to the transfer, Tenant may thereafter enter into a valid sublet of the Premises or portion thereof, upon the terms and conditions and with the proposed transferee set forth in the information furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 14.1, subject, however, to the requirements of Paragraph 14.4. |
14.3. | Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Paragraph 6,1 of this Lease regarding the use of the Premises and Paragraph 6.6, Landlord’s prior written consent shall not be required for an assignment of this Lease or a sublease of the entire Premises to any of the following transferees (each such transferee being a “Permitted Transferee”): (i) an Affiliate (hereafter defined in this Paragraph 14.3) of Tenant; (ii) a corporation or other valid entity into which Tenant merges or consolidates; and (iii) a transferee that purchases all of, or at least ninety percent (90%) of, Tenant’s assets. The assignment of this Lease to or a sublease of the entire Premises to a Permitted Transferee shall be subject to the following conditions: (A) Tenant shall give Landlord prior written notice of the name of any such assignee or subtenant; (B) any assignee shall assume, in writing, for the benefit of Landlord all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, and any subtenant shall agree, in writing, for the benefit of Landlord that such sublease is subject to and subordinate to this Lease; (C) the Tenant shall not be released from any obligations under this Lease; and (D) the Permitted Transferee shall have a tangible net worth which is at least equal to the greater of Tenant’s tangible net worth at the time of the assignment or sublease, as applicable, or on the Effective Date. The term “Affiliate” as used herein shall mean any partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, which directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with another partnership, limited liability company, or corporation. The term “control” as used in the immediately preceding sentence shall mean with respect to a corporation the right to exercise, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting rights attributable to the controlled corporation, and, with respect to any partnership or, the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of the controlled partnership or limited liability company, as applicable. |
14.4. | No Release; Excess Rent. No assignment, subletting or other transfer, whether consented to by Landlord or not, or permitted hereunder, shall relieve Tenant of its liability under this Lease. If an event of default occurs while the Premises or any part thereof are assigned, sublet or otherwise transferred, then Landlord, in addition to any other remedies herein provided, or |
Page 34
provided by law, may collect directly from such assignee, sublessee or transferee all rents payable to Tenant and apply such rent against any sums due Landlord hereunder. No such collection shall be construed to constitute a novation or a release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder. If Tenant assigns or otherwise transfers this Lease or sublets the Premises for an amount in excess of the rent called for by this Lease, one-half of the Excess Consideration (as defined below) shall be paid to Landlord within ten (10) days following receipt by Tenant. As used herein, “Excess Consideration” means all rents or other sums received by Tenant under any such assignment, sublease or other transfer which are in excess of the rents and other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease after deduction therefrom for reasonable costs actually paid by Tenant for additional improvements installed in the portion of the Premises subject to such assignment, sublease or other transfer by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense for the specific assignee, sublessee or other transfer in question and reasonable leasing commissions and attorneys’ fees paid by Tenant in connection with such assignment, sublease or other transfer, without deduction for carrying costs due to vacancy or otherwise, For the purposes of determining the Excess Consideration payable to Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 14.2, if a portion of the Premises is sublet, the pro rata share of the rent attributable to such partial area of the Premises shall be determined by Landlord by dividing the rent payable by Tenant hereunder by the total square footage of the Premises and multiplying the resulting quotient (the per square foot rent) by the number of square feet of the Premises which are sublet. Landlord may hire outside consultants to review the transfer documents and information, Tenant shall pay Landlord an administrative fee of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) and in addition shall reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any request for consent under this Paragraph (even if consent is denied or the request is withdrawn) and such reimbursement shall include the allocated cost of Landlord’s or its management company’s staff plus all out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, on demand. |
15.1. | Default. Any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease: |
15.1.1. | Tenant’s failure to (i) pay rent or any other charge under this Lease within five (5) days following the date such payment is due or (ii) cure or remove any lien pursuant to Paragraph 19 within twenty (20) days following receipt of written notice from Landlord or (iii) except as provided in Paragraphs 15.1.2 through 15.1.4, comply with any other term or condition within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice from Landlord specifying the noncompliance. If any failure described in clause (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence cannot be cured within the thirty (30)-day period, this provision shall be deemed complied with so long as Tenant commences correction within such period and thereafter proceeds in good faith and with reasonable diligence to effect the remedy as soon as practicable, in no event to exceed sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from Landlord. |
15.1.2. | Tenant’s insolvency; assignment for the benefit of its creditors: Tenant’s voluntary petition in bankruptcy or adjudication as bankrupt; attachment of or the levying of execution on the leasehold interest and failure of Tenant to secure discharge of the attachment or release of the levy of execution within ten (10) days: or the appointment of a receiver for Tenant’s properties. |
Page 35
15.1.3. | Abandonment (other than due to a casualty, legal order to vacate or a closure of the Building not caused by Tenant) of the Premises by Tenant unless Tenant has made proper arrangements for the continued care of the Premises, in accordance with the requirements of this Lease. |
15.1.4. | Failure of Tenant to deliver the documents or agreements required under Paragraphs 18.1 and/or 18.3 within the relevant time period(s) specified therein. |
15.2. | Remedies. Upon a default which remains uncured following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord shall have the following remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by law or otherwise provided in this Lease, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative: |
15.2.1. | Landlord may continue this Lease in full force and effect, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as long as Landlord does not terminate this Lease, and Landlord shall have the right to collect Rent when due. |
15.2.2. | Landlord may terminate. Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises at any time by giving written notice to that effect, and relet the Premises or any part thereof. Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises or any part thereof, including, without limitation, broker’s commissions, expenses of cleaning and redecorating the Premises required by the reletting and like costs. Reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining term of this Lease. No act by Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant shall terminate this Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a receiver on Landlord’s initiative to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession. On termination, Landlord has the right to remove all Tenant’s personal property and store the same at Tenant’s cost and to recover from Tenant as damages: |
(i) The worth at the time of award of unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable which had been earned at the time of termination; plus
(ii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable which would have been payable after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant prove could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
Page 36
(iv) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment 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, including, without limitation, any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord: (A) in retaking possession of the Premises; (B) in maintaining, repairing, preserving, restoring, replacing, cleaning, altering or rehabilitating the Premises or any portion thereof, including such acts for reletting to a new tenant or tenants; (C) for leasing commissions; or (D) for any other costs necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises; plus
(v) At Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of California.
The “worth at the time of award” of the amounts referred to in Paragraphs 15.2.2(i) and 15.2.2(ii) is computed by allowing interest at the interest rate as provided in Paragraph 25.2 on the unpaid rent and other sums due and payable from the termination date through the date of award. The “worth at the time of award” of the amount referred to in Paragraph 15.2.2(iii) is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%). Tenant waives redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code of Civil Procedure §1174 and §1179, or under any other present or future law, in the event Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes possession of the Premises by reason of any default of Tenant hereunder.
15.2.3. | Landlord may, with or without terminating this Lease, re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph 15.2 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. |
15.2.4. | Tenant acknowledges that certain benefits or concessions provided by Landlord are conditioned upon Tenant’s timely, fully and faithful performance of each and every obligation, covenant, representation and warranty of this Lease throughout the entire term of this Lease, even though such benefits or concessions may be realized by Tenant over less than the entire term of this Lease. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event Landlord brings an action against Tenant for default under this Lease, Landlord shall become immediately entitled to receive from Tenant as additional rent the amount of all such benefits and concessions allocable to the balance of the Lease term on a pro rata basis, i.e., an amount equal to the product of (x) the sum of (a) any amounts theretofore or thereafter paid by Landlord to Tenant or to any third party, or any amounts credited to Tenant or to any third party, for of on account of (i) any moving, tenant improvement, decorating or other allowance or credit granted to Tenant, (ii) any real estate commission paid on account of this Lease, and (iii) any expenses or costs related to assumption by Landlord of any other lease, plus (b) an amount equal to the difference between the Base Rent specified in this Lease and rent for any period for which this Lease provides any lesser amount including zero or nominal rent, including for any period of early occupancy of the Premises prior to the Commencement |
Page 37
Date of this Lease, plus (c) the amount spent by Landlord for any tenant improvements to the Premises; multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days of the term of this Lease remaining between the date of default and the expiration of the term of this Lease, and the denominator of which is the total number of days for the term of this Lease. |
15.3. | Bankruptcy. |
15.3.1. | The commencement of a bankruptcy action or liquidation action or reorganization action or insolvency action or an assignment of or by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or any similar action undertaken by Tenant, or the insolvency of Tenant, shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant. If the trustee or receiver appointed to serve during a bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, insolvency or similar action elects to reject Tenant’s unexpired Lease, the trustee or receiver shall notify Landlord in writing of its election within thirty (30) days after an order for relief in a liquidation action or within thirty (30) days after the commencement of any action. |
15.3.2. | Within thirty (30) days after court approval of the assumption of this Lease, the trustee or receiver shall cure (or provide adequate assurance to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord that the trustee or receiver shall cure) any and all previous defaults under the unexpired Lease and shall compensate. Landlord for all actual pecuniary loss resulting from Tenant’s breach of this Lease, including any attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Landlord as a result of such breach and/or the bankruptcy proceedings instituted by or against Tenant, and shall provide adequate assurance of future performance under the Lease to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord. Adequate assurance of future performance, as used herein, includes, but shall not be limited to (1) assurance of source and payment of Rent and other consideration due under this Lease and (ii) assurance that the assumption or assignment of this Lease will not breach any provision, such as radius, location, use or exclusivity provisions in any other lease of space within the Project. |
15.3.3. | Nothing contained in this Paragraph 15.3 shall affect the right of Landlord to refuse to accept an assignment upon commencement of or in connection with a bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or insolvency action or an assignment of Tenant for the benefit of creditors or other similar act. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as giving or granting or creating equity in the Premises to Tenant. In no event shall the leasehold estate under this Lease, or any interest therein, be assigned by voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding without the prior written consent of Landlord. In no event shall this Lease or any rights or privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization proceedings. |
15.4. | No Bar of Action(s). Landlord may xxx periodically to recover damages during the period corresponding to the remainder of the Lease Term, and no action for damages shall bar a later action for damages subsequently accruing. |
Page 38
15.5. | Landlord Cure. If Tenant fails to perform any obligation under this Lease, Landlord shall have the option to do so after five (5) days written notice to Tenant. All of Landlord’s expenditures to correct the default shall be reimbursed by Tenant on demand together with interest at the interest rate provided in Paragraph 25.2 from the date of expenditure until repaid. Such action by Landlord shall not waive any other remedies available to Landlord because of the default. |
15.6. | No Exclusion. The foregoing remedies shall be in addition to and shall not exclude any other remedy available to Landlord at law or in equity. |
16.1. | Landlord shall be in default under this Lease if it shall fail to comply with any term, provision or covenant of this Lease and shall not cure such failure within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to Landlord unless such cure cannot reasonably be accomplished within such thirty (30)-day period, then Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues the same to completion, if Landlord shall default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease (after notice and opportunity to cure as provided herein), Tenant may pursue any remedies available to it under the law and this Lease, provided that (i) Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages; (ii) in no event shall Landlord be liable for punitive damages, lost profits, business interruption, speculative, consequential or other such damages; and (iii) in recognition that Landlord must receive timely payments of Rent and operate the Project, Tenant shall have no right of self-help to perform repairs or any other obligation of Landlord, and shall have no right to withhold, set-off, or xxxxx Rent. |

Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a right of first offer with respect to the entire space located adjacent to the Premises, containing approximately 27,729 rentable square feet having a street address of 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, XX 00000 (the “FRL Space”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such first offer right of Tenant shall commence (i) on the Commencement Date of the Lease and expire on the date that is one (1) year prior to the Expiration Date of the Initial Term of this Lease (the “FRL Period”), (ii) only if the FRL Space becomes Available (as such term is defined below), and (iii) upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this paragraph (the “First Right to Lease”). From time to time when the FRL Space or any portion thereof becomes Available for lease to third parties during the FRL Period, Landlord shall notify Tenant of such fact, and the material terms on which Landlord is prepared to lease the FRL Space to Tenant (“Landlord’s Notice of Availability”). The rental rate, proposed escalations, tenant improvement allowance and free rent concession, for the FRL Space shall reflect the prevailing market rate as reasonably determined by Landlord. If Tenant wishes to exercise Tenant’s right of first offer with respect to the space described in Landlord’s Notice of Availability, then within ten (10) business days of delivery of Landlord’s Notice of Availability to Tenant, Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord of Tenant’s irrevocable exercise of its right of first offer with respect to the entire space described in Landlord’s Notice of Availability on the terms contained in such notice (“Tenant’s Notice of Acceptance”). Failure of Tenant to timely provide Tenant’s Notice of Acceptance shall be deemed Tenant’s election not to add the FRL Space to the Premises. If Tenant does not elect to add the FRL Space, then Landlord may lease the FRL Space to a third party or take it off the market for any reason whatsoever; provided that, if Landlord does not enter into a binding lease with any other third party for the FRL Space reflected in Landlord’s Notice of Availability within six (6) months after the deadline by which Tenant was to have provided Tenant’s Notice of Acceptance, Tenant’s First Right to Lease hereunder shall be reinstated and the procedures described above shall again be followed. As used herein, “Available” shall mean that the FRL Space is, or is expected by Landlord to become, vacant, unencumbered and free and clear of all claims and rights of other tenants or other third parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the FRL Space shall not be deemed Available if, as to all or any portion thereof, there is an outstanding lease, lease option, or option or other right of extension, renewal, expansion, first refusal, first negotiation, or similar or other right, pursuant to any lease or written agreement, or if any then-existing tenant or occupant desires to renew or extend its lease as to any or all of such space, whether or not pursuant to an existing right or option. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may give Landlord’s Notice of Availability at any time during the Term. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or prevent Landlord from marketing, discussing or negotiating with any other party for a lease of, or rights of any nature as to, any part of the FRL Space, provided that any of the foregoing activities by Landlord shall be subject to Tenant’s rights hereunder. If Tenant timely exercises Tenant’s right to lease the FRL Space as set forth herein, Landlord and Tenant shall within fifteen (15) days thereafter execute a separate lease for such FRL Space upon the terms and conditions as set forth in Landlord’s Notice of Availability and this Paragraph 26. Tenant shall commence payment of |
Page 49
Rent for the FRL Space, and the term of the FRL Space shall commence upon the date of delivery of the FRL Space to Tenant (the “First Offer Commencement Date”) and terminate on the date set forth in Landlord’s Notice of Availability; provided that, Tenant acknowledges that its exercise of its Early Termination Option shall have no effect on its lease as to the FRL Space, which shall continue in full force and effect. Tenant’s First Right to Lease the FRL Space is subject to Tenant not being in default under the Lease when Landlord would otherwise be required to provide Landlord’s Notice of Availability, and when Tenant’s Notice of Acceptance is given. |

Page 8
$1,635,950.00) (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”) of the Total Costs to Tenant under the conditions set forth below, but payment or nonpayment thereof shall not relieve Tenant of its responsibility to pay all Total Costs.

14. Reimbursement of Tenant Improvement Allowance.
a. Periodic Progress Payments. Tenant acknowledges that the Total Costs of the Tenant Improvements may exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance. On or before the thirtieth (30th) day of each calendar month during the construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord: (A) a request for payment from the General Contractor, approved by Tenant, in a form to be provided by Landlord, showing the schedule, by trade, of percentage of completion of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, and detailing the portion of the work completed and the portion not completed; (B) invoices from all subcontractors and material suppliers for the Tenant Improvements for labor rendered and materials delivered to the Premises; (C) executed mechanic’s lien releases from all subcontractors and material suppliers which shall comply with the appropriate provisions, as reasonably determined by Landlord, of applicable law; and (D) all other information reasonably requested by Landlord or its Lender. Tenant’s request for payment shall be deemed Tenant’s acceptance and approval of the work furnished and/or the materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request. The Total Costs less the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall hereinafter be referred to as “Tenant’s Share.” The parties agree that Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share of all requests for payment by the General Contractor prior to any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance being available. Once Tenant’s Share has been paid within twenty (20) days after Landlord’s receipt of the first request for payment for which the Tenant Improvement Allowance may be used, Landlord shall deliver a check to Tenant made jointly payable to the General Contractor and Tenant in the lesser of: (x) the amount so requested by Tenant as set forth in such payment request that is subject to reimbursement herein, less a ten percent (10%) retention (the aggregate amount of such retentions is referred to hereinafter as the “Final Retention”), and (y) the balance of any remaining available portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (not including the Final Retention), provided that Landlord does not dispute any request for payment based on non-compliance of any work with the final Working Drawings, or due to any substandard work, or due to the fact that reimbursement was not applicable or appropriate for one or more cost item(s) for which reimbursement was requested, or for any other just cause. Landlord’s payment of such amounts shall not, however, be deemed Landlord’s approval or acceptance of the work furnished or materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request.
b. Final Retention Payment. Within a reasonable period of time following final completion of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant’s Contractor and Landlord’s Construction Representative shall
Page 9
cooperate to prepare a final cost accounting for the Tenant Improvements, the allocation and payment of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, and those costs which Tenant is obligated hereunder to pay, and an appropriate reconciliation shall be made if either party has overpaid its portion of all such costs. A check for the Final Retention payable jointly to Tenant and the General Contractor shall be delivered by Landlord to Tenant following the Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements to the Premises, provided that: (A) Tenant delivers to Landlord properly executed mechanics lien releases in compliance with applicable law; (B) Landlord has determined that no substandard work exists which adversely affects the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air conditioning, life-safety or other systems of the Building, the exterior wall of the Building, or the structure or exterior appearance of the Building; (C) Tenant has delivered a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy for the Premises to Landlord; (D) Tenant has provided an Air Balance Report if required by Landlord; and (E) Tenant has provided to Landlord updated hardcopy as-built drawings of the Tenant Improvements as well as an updated CD in CADD format thereof. If Tenant fails to request the Tenant Improvement Allowance after satisfaction of the preconditions set forth above by the first (1st) anniversary of the Commencement Date hereof, Tenant shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any right to receive the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Unused portions of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be retained by Landlord.
15. Landlord Delay. If Tenant or its General Contractor shall be delayed in Substantially Completing the Tenant Improvements as a result of the occurrence of any of the following (a “Landlord Delay”), provided that no Landlord Delay shall be deemed to have commenced accruing unless and until Tenant shall have notified Landlord in writing of the potential cause of any such Landlord Delay and the projected length of any such Landlord Delay:
a. Landlord’s failure to furnish information or approval of the Space Plan or the Working Drawings in accordance with this Work Letter or to respond to any request by Tenant for any approval or information within any time period prescribed, or if no time period is prescribed, then within ten (10) Business Days of such request;
b. Any Change Orders to the approved Working Drawings requested by Landlord; or
c. Any breach or default by Landlord in the performance of Landlord’s obligations under the Lease or Work Letter; then the date of Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be the day that Tenant Improvements would have been Substantially Completed absent any such Landlord Delay. The Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be Substantially Completed on the date that the Tenant Improvements have been performed (or would have been performed absent any Landlord Delay), other than any Punchlist Items or details of construction, mechanical adjustment or any other matter, the non-completion of which does not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises. If the Tenant Improvements are delayed from being Substantially Completed due to any Landlord Delay, then the Work Schedule shall be extended to account for such delay.
16. Commencement Date. Tenant acknowledges that Commencement Date and Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent as required under the Lease shall commence on the required Commencement Date set forth therein, whether or not Tenant has completed all or any portions of the Tenant Improvements, and whether or not Tenant has obtained a certificate of occupancy therefor or has commenced business operations therefrom.

4. Any act of Landlord, or its successors or assigns, consisting of a waiver of any of the terms or conditions of the Lease, or the giving of any consent to any manner or thing relating thereto, or the granting of any indulgences, renewals, extensions of time, releases, and discharges to Tenant or any other guarantor, or the taking or releasing of any security for payment and performance of the Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, or the refraining from perfecting any interest in any security granted in connection with the Lease or any other guarantee, may be done without notice to or consent from Guarantor and without releasing Guarantor from any of its obligations hereunder.
5. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be released by Landlord’s receipt, application, release or impairment of any security or other collateral given for the performance and observance of any covenant or condition in the Lease contained on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed, nor by any modification thereof, nor any release or discharge of any other guarantor, regardless of whether Guarantor consents thereto or receives notice thereof.
6. The liabilities and obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be reduced, discharged, or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of Tenant or any other party against Landlord or against payment of the obligations, whether such offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the obligations or otherwise.
7. The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected by (a) the release or discharge of Tenant in any receivership, bankruptcy or other proceeding; (b) the impairment, limitation or modification of any liability to Landlord of Tenant or the estate of Tenant in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the enforcement of Tenant’s liability under the Lease or resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency laws or other statute or from the decision in any court; (c) the rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding; (d) the assignment, transfer, or encumbrance of all or any portion
Page 2

Guarantor hereby waives notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of any event of default under the Lease, opportunity to cure any event of default under the Lease, and proof of notice or demand to Tenant relating to any event of default. Guarantor hereby further waives any and all defenses, rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, contribution, and any other rights and defenses that are or may become available to it arising from performance by the Guarantor under this Guaranty, including without limitation those pursuant to the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 2787 through 2855, inclusive.
8. In the event that pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief law or any judgment, order or decision thereunder, Landlord must rescind or restore any payment or any part thereof received by Landlord in satisfaction of the obligations, any prior release or discharge from the terms of this Guaranty given to Guarantor by Landlord shall be without effect and this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect. It is the intention of Tenant and Guarantor that Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by Guarantor’s performance of such obligations and then only to the extent of performance.
9. Guarantor further agrees that it may be joined in any action against Tenant in connection with the said obligations of Tenant and recovery may be had against Guarantor in any such action. Landlord may enforce the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, at its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by law, and exercise its rights under this Guaranty and pursue any other security or apply any other collateral it may hold, either prior to, concurrently with, or after, the exercise of its remedies for default against Tenant and/or its successors, assigns, and/or other guarantors under the Lease, and Guarantor hereby waives all right to assert or plead at any time any and all surety or other defenses in the nature thereof including, without limitation, any provision of law requiring Landlord to proceed first or exhaust its recourse against Tenant or any other guarantor. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.

10. Until all the covenants and conditions in the Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed and observed, are fully performed and observed, including without limitation the payment of all rent and other sums required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord, Guarantor (a) shall have no right of subrogation against Tenant by reason of any payments or acts of performance by Guarantor hereunder; and (b) subordinates any liability or indebtedness of Tenant now or hereafter held by Guarantor to the obligations of Tenant to Landlord under the Lease. Guarantor waives any defense to payment under this Guaranty based on any argument that Landlord’s realization on any other security or collateral for the Lease has impaired Guarantor’s subrogation rights. Guarantor acknowledges that it may seek to
Page 3
obtain a separate reimbursement agreement from the Tenant covering amounts paid by Guarantor under this Guaranty, and the presence or absence of such a reimbursement agreement shall have no effect on Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty.
11. Upon written request of Landlord, Guarantor shall furnish to Landlord, within fifteen (15) business days following receipt of Landlord’s written request, and not more frequently than twice per calendar year, Guarantor’s most current financial statements (including balance sheet and income statement) for the two (2) years prior to the current financial statements year.

Landlord may make such financial statements available to Landlord’s lender or purchaser of the Project (as defined in the Lease) or any portion thereof containing the Premises. Landlord shall otherwise keep such financial statements confidential and shall require any such prospective lender or purchaser to do the same.
12. This Guaranty shall apply to the Lease, any extension, renewal, modification, replacement, or amendment thereof, and to any expansion or contraction of the premises demised thereby, and to any assignment, other transfer, subletting or other tenancy thereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, or to any holdover term following the term granted under the Lease or any extension or renewal thereof.
13. In the event this Guaranty shall be held ineffective or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction or in the event of any limitation of Guarantor’s liability hereunder, other than as expressly provided herein, then Guarantor shall be deemed to be a tenant under the Lease with the same force and effect as if Guarantor were expressly named as a joint and several tenant therein with respect to the obligations of Tenant thereunder hereby guaranteed.
14. If Landlord takes any action or participates in any proceeding to enforce the Lease or this Guaranty, or to protect Landlord’s rights hereunder or thereunder (including, but not limited to, bankruptcy, appellate, and post-judgment proceedings), or shall be made a party to any action or proceeding involving Tenant and/or Guarantor, whether or not such action or proceeding is commenced prior to or after expiration or termination of the Lease or this Guaranty, the undersigned shall pay to Landlord all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or expended by Landlord in connection therewith.
15. Subject to any applicable statute of limitations, no delay on the part of Landlord in the exercising any right hereunder or under the Lease shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right of Landlord under the Lease or hereunder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar to or a waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion.
16. If there is more than one Guarantor, the term Guarantor, as used herein, shall include all of them; each and every provision of this Guaranty shall be binding on each and every one of the
Page 4
undersigned; they shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder; and Landlord shall have the right to join one or all of them in any proceeding or to proceed against them in any order. This Guaranty is in addition to and not in substitution for any other guarantees held or which may hereafter be held by Landlord, and Guarantor is jointly and severally liable with all such other guarantors for payment of the amounts hereby guaranteed.
17. This instrument constitutes the entire agreement between Landlord and Guarantor with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior oral or written agreements or understandings with respect thereto and may not be changed, modified, discharged or terminated orally or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing signed by Guarantor and Landlord.

Guarantor hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such state or federal court in such county for such purposes and agrees that any notice, complaint or legal process so delivered shall constitute adequate notice and service of process for all purposes and shall subject Guarantor to the jurisdiction of such Court for purposes of adjudicating any matter related to this Guaranty.
19.
