ARTICLE 1

TERM

1.1 Commencement Date. The term of this Lease shall commence on the date which is the later of:

(a) July 1, 2019, or

(b) subject to Tenant Delay (as hereinafter defined), the date on which the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Complete (as hereinafter defined).

The Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be "Substantially Complete" on the earliest of the date on which: (1) a temporary certificate of occupancy or a reasonably substantial equivalent such as a sign-off from a building inspector is issued by the City of Pleasanton (the "City"), or (2) Tenant first occupies all or any portion of the Expansion Premises.

The Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be Substantially Complete despite minor “punch list” items which shall be completed by Landlord within a reasonable time.

If a Tenant Delay occurs, the Commencement Date shall be and mean the later of July 1, 2019 or the date upon which the Tenant Improvements would have been Substantially Complete but for any Tenant Delay. As used herein, a “Tenant Delay” shall be and mean each day of delay in the commencement or performance of the Tenant Improvements that occurs (a) because Tenant fails to timely furnish any information or deliver or approve any required documents (whether preliminary, interim revisions or final), pricing estimates, construction bids, and the like, (b) because of any change by Tenant to the Plans and Specification, Working Drawings or Final Working Drawings (each of which are hereinafter defined), (c) because Tenant fails to attend any meeting with Landlord, the architect, any design professional, or any contractor, or their respective employees or representatives, as may be required or scheduled hereunder or otherwise necessary in connection with the preparation or completion of any construction documents, such as the Plans and Specification, Working Drawings or Final Working Drawings, or in connection with the performance of the Tenant Improvements, (d) because of any specification by Tenant of materials or installations in addition to or other than Landlord’s standard finish-out materials, or (e) Tenant fails to deposit any Overage (as hereinafter defined) with Landlord as and when required hereunder.

1.1.1 The date that the Lease commences in accordance with this Article 1 shall be referred to herein as the "Commencement Date".

1.1.2 On and after the Commencement Date, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect until January 31, 2027 (“Expiration Date”) or until this Lease is terminated as otherwise provided herein. As soon as the Commencement Date is determined, Tenant shall execute a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F acknowledging, among other things, the (a) Commencement Date, (b) the Expiration Date and (c) Tenant's acceptance of the Expansion Premises. Tenant's failure to execute the Commencement Date Memorandum shall not affect Tenant's liability hereunder.

1.1.3 Reference in this Lease to a "Lease Year" shall mean each successive twelve month period commencing with the Commencement Date.

1.1.4 Landlord and Tenant estimate that the Commencement Date shall be July 1, 2019, but such estimate is not and shall not be deemed to be a representation or warranty by Landlord that Premises shall be ready for Tenant's occupancy on such date.

1.1.5 Landlord shall provide Tenant with limited access to the Expansion Premises at such times as may be designated by Landlord in light of construction work by Landlord in the Expansion Premises for a period of approximately two (2) weeks prior to the date which Landlord anticipates being the Commencement Date for the sole purpose of permitting Tenant to ready the Expansion Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, so that Tenant’s access does not interfere with the performance of Landlord’s work in the Expansion Premises.

Tenant's access to the Expansion Premises during the period of time prior to the Commencement Date shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease (including the Rules and Regulations and such other rules and regulations as Landlord may reasonably impose), other than the payment of Rent and the expiration date of the Lease shall not be advanced by such access by Tenant of the Expansion Premises prior to the Commencement Date. Tenant shall not interfere with Landlord’s performance of Landlord’s work in the Expansion Premises.

ARTICLE 2

POSSESSION

2.1 Lease in Full Force and Effect. Tenant agrees that, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant on the anticipated Commencement Date, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, but in such event the Term of this Lease shall not commence until Landlord tenders possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant with the Tenant Improvements substantially completed or Tenant opens for business in the Expansion Premises. If Landlord completes construction of the Tenant Improvements prior to the scheduled Commencement Date, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant upon such completion and the term of this Lease shall thereupon commence.

2.2. Acceptance by Tenant. Tenant has determined that the Premises are acceptable for Tenant's use and Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any broker or agent has made any representations or warranties in connection with the physical condition of the Premises or their fitness for Tenant's use upon which Tenant has relied directly or indirectly for any purpose. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure, incur any obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with this Lease or the ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises or the Project. Tenant's possession of the Premises during the period of time, if any, prior to the Commencement Date, shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease and shall not advance the Expiration Date.

If the Term commences or ends on a date other than the first or last day of a month, Base Rent shall be prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month. Tenant shall pay Landlord the Rent (as hereinafter defined) due under this Lease without any deduction or offset whatsoever by Tenant, foreseeable or unforeseeable.

3.2 Additional Rent. In addition to the Base Rent, Tenant agrees to pay as additional rental (the "Additional Rent" and together with the Base Rent, the "Rent") the amount of rental adjustments and all other charges required by this Lease. All sums other than the Base Rent that

Tenant is obligated to pay under this Lease will be Additional Rent, whether or not such sums are designated as Additional Rent.

3.3 Late Charge and Interest. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the late payment of any Rent will cause Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection costs, processing and accounting expenses, and increased debt service (the "Delinquency Costs"). If Landlord has not received any installment of Rent when due, Tenant shall pay a late charge (the "Late Charge") equal to twelve percent (12%) of the delinquent amount. Tenant agrees that the Late Charge represents a reasonable estimate of the Delinquency Costs that will be incurred by Landlord. In addition, Tenant shall pay interest on all delinquent amounts from the date the amount was due until the date the amount is paid in full at a rate per annum (the "Applicable Interest Rate") equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum interest rate permitted by law or (b) five percent (5%) above the reference rate (the "Reference Rate") publicly announced by Bank of America, NA. (or if Bank of America, NA. ceases to exist, the largest bank then headquartered in the State of California) (the "Bank"). If the Bank discontinues use of the Reference Rate, then the term "Reference Rate" will mean the announced rate charged by the Bank, from time to time instead of the Reference Rate. Landlord and Tenant agree that it is difficult to ascertain the damage that Landlord will suffer as a result of the late payment of any Rent and that the Late Charge and interest are the best estimates of the damage that Landlord will suffer in the event of late payment. If a Late Charge becomes payable for any two (2) installments of Rent within any twelve (12) month period, then all Rent will automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance.

ARTICLE 4

This estimated amount shall be divided into twelve equal monthly installments. Tenant shall pay to Landlord without offset or deduction, concurrently with the regular monthly Base Rent payment next due following the receipt of such statement, an amount equal to one monthly installment multiplied by the number of months from January in the calendar year in which said statement is submitted to the month of such payment, both months inclusive.

Thereafter, Landlord shall reconcile the above amounts and shall either xxxx Tenant for the balance due (payable on demand by Landlord) or credit any overpayment by Tenant towards the next monthly installment of Landlord's Estimate falling due, as the case may be. For purposes of making these calculations, in no event shall Tenant's Percentage of the Direct Expenses be deemed to be less than the Direct Expenses Base.

(c) Tenant's obligation to pay Tenant's Percentage of Direct Expenses shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. Tenant's Percentage of Direct Expenses shall be paid by Tenant when due even though the Term has expired and/or Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Percentage of Direct Expenses for the year in which this Lease terminates, Tenant shall immediately pay any increase due over the estimated expenses paid and, conversely, any overpayment made in the event said expenses decrease shall be rebated by Landlord to Tenant.

If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including

but not limited to the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply or retain all or any part of this Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, upon demand, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Tenant's failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on the Security Deposit. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform all of its obligations under this Lease, and if Tenant is not in default under this Lease, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interests hereunder) after the expiration of the Term and after Landlord after such time as any amount due from Tenant in accordance with Article 4 hereof has been determined and paid in full. Tenant hereby waives the benefit of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 with regards to such Security Deposit, it being agreed and understood that Landlord shall have the right, upon an Event of Default, to apply the Security Deposit to satisfy the payment of future Rent obligations.

ARTICLE 6

ARTICLE 9

HOLDING OVER; SURRENDER

9.1 Holding Over. If Tenant holds over the Premises or any part thereof after expiration of the Term, such holding over shall, at Landlord's option, constitute a month-to-month tenancy, at a rent equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the greater of (a) the then fair market value of the base rent for the Premises as determined by Landlord and (b) the Base Rent in effect immediately prior to such holding over and shall otherwise be on all the other terms and conditions of this Lease. The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall not be construed as Landlord's permission for Tenant to hold over. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord following expiration or termination shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease or extension of the Term except as specifically set forth above. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss or liability resulting from or arising out of Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises, including, but not limited to, any amounts required to be paid to any tenant or prospective tenant who was to have occupied the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and any related attorneys' fees and brokerage commissions.

9.2 Surrender. Upon the termination of this Lease or Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, Tenant will surrender the Premises broom clean, together with all keys, in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall patch and fill all holes within the Premises. Unless requested not to do so by Landlord, Tenant shall also remove all

alterations or improvements made by it, or made by Landlord at Tenant's request or direction, to the Premises (which removal shall include restoration if and to the extent necessary to return the Premises to its condition at the Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear excluded), other than the Tenant Improvements (except that Tenant shall remove the Reception Desk referenced in Section 4.2 of the Work Letter and the sliding glass doors referenced in Section 4.4 of the Work Letter). In no event may Tenant remove from the Premises any mechanical or electrical systems or any wiring or any other aspect of any systems within the Premises. Conditions existing because of Tenant's failure to perform maintenance, repairs or replacements shall not be deemed "reasonable wear and tear."

ARTICLE 10

TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY

(a) Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, at least ten (10) days before delinquency, all taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and if Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall, upon demand, repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord, or the portion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment.

(b) If the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, whether installed, and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which Tenant Improvements conforming to Landlord's "Project Standard," in other space in the Project are assessed, then the real property taxes and assessment levied against the Project by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10(a), above. If the records of the County Assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining whether said Tenant Improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than Landlord's Project Standard, such records shall be binding on both the Landlord and the Tenant. If the records of the County Assessor are not available or sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for making said determination, the actual cost of construction shall be used.

ARTICLE 11

CONDITION OF PREMISES

Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises or the Project or with respect to the suitability of either for the conduct of Tenant's business. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Project were in satisfactory condition at such time.

ARTICLE 12

ALTERATIONS

(a) Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements in or to the Premises without Landlord's prior written consent, and then only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord. Tenant agrees that there shall be no construction or partitions or other obstructions which might interfere with Landlord's free access to mechanical installations or service facilities of the Building or Project or interfere with the moving of Landlord's equipment to or from the enclosures containing said installations or facilities. All such work shall be done at such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time designate. Tenant covenants and agrees that all work done by Tenant shall be performed in full compliance with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, regulations and requirements of all governmental agencies, offices, and boards having jurisdiction, and in full compliance with the rules, regulations and requirements of the Insurance Service Offices formerly known as the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau, and of any similar body. Before commencing any work, Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten days written notice of the proposed commencement of such work and shall, if required by Landlord, secure at Tenant's own cost and expense, a completion and lien indemnity bond, satisfactory to Landlord, for said work. Tenant further covenants and agrees that any mechanic's lien filed against the Premises or against the Building or Project for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within ten days after the filing thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant. All alterations, additions or improvements upon the Premises made by either party, including (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) all wallcovering, built-in cabinet work, paneling and the like, shall, unless Landlord elects otherwise, become the property of Landlord, and shall remain upon, and be surrendered with the Premises, as a part thereof, at the end of the term hereof, except that Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, require Tenant to remove all partitions, counters, railings and the like installed by Tenant, and Tenant shall repair all damage resulting from such removal or, at Landlord's option, shall pay to Landlord all costs arising from such removal.

(b) All articles of personal property and all business and trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture and movable partitions owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises shall be and remain the property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant at any time during the lease term when Tenant is not in default hereunder. If Tenant shall fail to remove all of its effects from the Premises upon termination of this Lease for any cause whatsoever, Landlord may, at its option, remove the same in any manner that Landlord shall

choose, and store said effects without liability to Tenant for loss thereof. In such event, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord upon demand any and all expenses incurred in such removal, including court costs and attorneys' fees and storage charges on such effects for any length of time that the same shall be in Landlord's possession. Landlord may, at its option, without notice, sell said effects, or any of the same, at private sale and without legal process, for such price as Landlord may obtain and apply the proceeds of such sale upon any amounts due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord and upon the expense incident to the removal and sale of said effects.

ARTICLE 13

REPAIRS

13.1 Tenant. By entry hereunder, Tenant accepts the Premises as being in good and sanitary order, condition and repair. Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall keep, maintain and preserve the Premises in first class condition and repair (including contracting with a professional, insured janitorial service provider to provide janitorial services to the Project five (5) days per week, which janitorial services shall include interior and exterior window washing and cleaning all bathrooms in the Building) and shall, when and if needed, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, make all repairs to the Premises and the restrooms in the Building, and every part thereof, including, without limitation, Tenant's trade fixtures, installations, equipment and other personal property items within the Premises. All such repairs, maintenance and replacements by Tenant shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner. Tenant shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term hereof, surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as when received, usual and ordinary wear and tear excepted. Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair, decorate or paint the Premises or any part thereof. Tenant acknowledges, agrees and affirms that Landlord has made no representations to Tenant respecting the condition of the Premises or the Project. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole expense, be responsible for repairing any area damaged by Tenant, Tenant's agents, employees, invitees and visitors. All repairs and replacements by Tenant shall be made and performed: (a) at Tenant's cost and expense and at such time and in such manner as Landlord may reasonably designate, (b) by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, (c) so that same shall be at least equal in quality, value and utility to the original work or installation (d) in a manner and using equipment and materials that will not interfere with or impair the operations, use or occupation of the Building or any of the mechanical, electrical, plumbing or other systems in the Building or the Project, and (e) in accordance with the Rules and Regulations attached hereto as EXHIBIT D and all Applicable Laws. In the event Tenant fails, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, to maintain the Premises in accordance with the obligations under the Lease, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter the Premises and perform such maintenance, repairs or refurbishing at Tenant's sole cost and expense (including a sum for overhead to Landlord equal to ten percent (10%) of the cost of the maintenance, repairs or refurbishing). Tenant shall maintain written records of maintenance and repairs, as required by any Applicable Law, and shall use certified technicians to perform such maintenance and repairs, as so required. Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord, full and complete copies of all service or maintenance contracts entered into by Tenant for the Premises.

13.2 Landlord. Anything contained in Section 13.1 above to the contrary notwithstanding, as items of Operating Expenses, Landlord shall repair and maintain the structural portions of the Building, including the foundations and roof structure. Landlord shall repair and maintain the basic plumbing, elevators, life safety systems and other building systems, heating, ventilating, air conditioning and electrical systems installed or furnished by Landlord, and perform roof repair and maintenance to the Premises. Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make any such repairs or to perform any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for an unreasonable time after written notice of the need of such repairs or maintenance is given to Landlord by Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to make any repair resulting from (i) any alteration or modification to the Building or to mechanical equipment within the Building performed by, or on behalf of, Tenant or to special equipment or systems installed by, or on behalf of, Tenant, (ii) the installation, use or operation of Tenant's property, fixtures and equipment, (iii) the moving of Tenant's property in or out of the Building or in and about the Premises, (iv) Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises in violation of Section 6 of this Lease or in a manner not contemplated by the parties at the time of the execution of this Lease, (v) the acts or omissions of Tenant or any employees, agents, customers, visitors, invitees, licensees, contractors, assignees or subtenants of Tenant (individually, a "Tenant Party" and collectively, "Tenant's Parties"), (vi) fire and other casualty, except as provided by Section 21 of this Lease or (vii) condemnation, except as provided in Section 22 of this Lease. Landlord shall have no obligation to make repairs under this Section 13.2 until a reasonable time after (a) Landlord first becomes aware of the need for such repairs, or (b) receipt of written notice from Tenant of the need for such repairs, whichever is earlier. There shall be no abatement of Rent during the performance of such work. Except for the initial Tenant Improvements, if any, provided for in the Work Letter, Landlord shall have no obligation during the Term of this Lease to remodel, repair, improve, decorate or paint any part of the Premises or to clean, repair or replace carpeting or window coverings. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for injury or damage that may result from any defect in the construction or condition of the Premises, nor for any damage that may result from interruption of Tenant's use of the Premises during any repairs by Landlord. Tenant waives any right to repair the Premises, the Building and/or the Common Area at the expense of Landlord under any Applicable Laws including without limitation Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code.

ARTICLE 14

LIENS

Tenant shall not permit any mechanic's, materialmen's or other liens to be filed against the Building or Project, nor against Tenant's leasehold interest in the Premises. Landlord shall have the right at all reasonable times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices which it deems necessary for protection from such liens. If any such liens are filed, Landlord may, without waiving its rights and remedies based on such breach of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any of its obligations, cause such liens to be released by any means it shall deem proper, including payments in satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such lien. Tenant shall pay to Landlord at once, upon notice by Landlord, any sum paid by Landlord to remove such liens,

together with interest at the maximum rate per annum permitted by law from the date of such payment by Landlord.

ARTICLE 15

ENTRY BY LANDLORD AND RESERVED RIGHTS OF LANDLORD

Landlord shall at any and all times have the right to enter the Premises for any lawful reason and/or to undertake the following, without limitation: to inspect the Premises; to supply any service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder; to show the Premises to prospective purchasers or tenants; to post notices of nonresponsibility, to alter, improve or repair the Premises or any other portion of the Building or Project; to install, use, maintain, repair, alter, relocate or replace any pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, equipment or other facilities in the Common Areas or the Building or Project; to grant easements on the Project, dedicate for public use portions thereof and record covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project and/or amendments to existing CC&Rs which do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises; change the name of the Building or Project; affix reasonable signs and displays; and, during the last nine (9) months of the Term, place signs for the rental of and show the Premises to prospective tenants, all without being deemed guilty of any eviction of Tenant and without abatement of Rent.

Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss in, upon and about the Premises. Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all doors in the Premises. Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises. Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means, or otherwise, shall not be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into the Premises, or any eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, and any damages caused on account thereof shall be paid by Tenant. It is understood and agreed that no provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as otherwise expressly agreed herein by Landlord.

ARTICLE 16

UTILITIES AND SERVICES

Tenant shall be solely responsible to furnish or cause to be furnished to the Premises the utilities and services described in the Standards for Utilities and Services, attached hereto as EXHIBIT C, subject to the conditions and in accordance with the standards set forth therein. Tenant shall timely pay all utilities bills as and when due, and no later than ten (10) days prior to delinquency.

In addition, Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of such failure, no eviction of Tenant shall result from such failure and Tenant shall not be relieved from the performance of any covenant or agreement

in this Lease because of such failure. In the event of any failure, stoppage or interruption thereof, Tenant shall diligently attempt to resume service promptly.

If Tenant shall file a petition in bankruptcy under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code as then in effect, or if Tenant shall be adjudicated a bankrupt in involuntary bankruptcy proceedings and such adjudication shall not have been vacated within thirty days from the date thereof, or if a receiver or trustee shall be appointed of Tenant's property and the order appointing such receiver or trustee shall not be set aside or vacated within thirty days after the entry thereof, or if Tenant shall assign Tenant's estate or effects for the benefit of creditors, or if this Lease shall, by operation of law or otherwise, pass to any person or persons other than Tenant, then in any such event Landlord may terminate this Lease, if Landlord so elects, with or without notice of such election and with or without entry or action by Landlord. In such case, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, Landlord, in addition to any and all rights and remedies allowed by law or equity, shall, upon such termination, be entitled to recover damages in the amount provided in Article 23 hereof. Neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant or by virtue of any statute or order of any court shall be entitled to possession of the Premises but shall surrender the Premises to Landlord. Nothing contained herein shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to recover damages by reason of any such termination equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved; whether or not such amount is greater, equal to, or less than the amount of damages recoverable under the provisions of this Article 17.

ARTICLE 18

INDEMNIFICATION

Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord's affiliated entities, and each of their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties, costs, liabilities, and expenses, including all costs, attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon (“collectively, “Claims”), arising at any time during or after the Term as a result (directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (a) any default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant's part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, or (b) Tenant's use of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant's business or any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or any Tenant Party in or about the Premises, the Building, the Common Area or other portions of the Project, regardless of where in or about the Project such Claims arise or are incurred. The foregoing indemnity obligation shall include, without limitation, any claim by any Tenant Party for any injury or illness caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by any furniture, carpeting, draperies, stoves or any other materials on the Premises. Tenant, as a

material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to person in, upon or about the Project from any cause whatsoever. The obligations of Tenant under this Article 18 shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to any Claims or liability arising prior to such termination.

ARTICLE 19

DAMAGE TO TENANT'S PROPERTY

Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for (i) any damage to any property entrusted to employees of the Project, (ii) loss or damage to any property by theft or otherwise, (iii) any injury or damage to property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Project or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing work therein or from the roof, street or sub-surface or from any other place or resulting from dampness or from any other cause whatsoever. Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for interference with light or other incorporeal hereditaments, nor shall Landlord be liable for any damage caused by latent defect in the Premises or in the Project.

ARTICLE 20

INSURANCE

(a) Tenant shall, during the term hereof and any other period of occupancy, at its sole cost and expense, keep in full force and effect the following insurance:

(i) Standard form property insurance insuring against the perils of fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended coverage ("All-Risk") and sprinkler leakage. This insurance policy shall be upon all property owned by Tenant, for which Tenant is legally liable or that was installed at Tenant's expense, and which is located in the Project including, without limitation, furniture, fittings, installations, fixtures (other than Tenant improvements installed by Landlord), and any other personal property in an amount not less than ninety percent (90%) of the full replacement cost thereof. In the event that there shall be a dispute as to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the decision of Landlord or any mortgagees of Landlord shall be conclusive. This insurance policy shall also be upon direct or indirect loss of Tenant's earnings attributable to Tenant's inability to use fully or obtain access to the Premises or Project in an amount as will properly reimburse Tenant. Such policy shall name Landlord and any mortgagees of Landlord as insured parties, as their respective interests may appear.

(ii) Commercial General Liability Insurance insuring Tenant against any liability arising out of the lease, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises, the Project and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be in the amount of $5,000,000 Combined Single Limit for injury to, or death of one or more persons in an occurrence, and for damage to tangible property (including loss of use) in an occurrence, with such liability amount to be

adjusted from year to year to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index. The policy shall insure the hazards of premises and operation, independent contractors, contractual liability (covering the Indemnity contained in Section 18 hereof) and shall (1) name Landlord as an additional insured, and (2) contain a cross liability provision, and (3) contain a provision that "the insurance provided the Landlord hereunder shall be primary and non-contributing with any other insurance available to the Landlord."

(iii) Workers' Compensation and Employer's Liability insurance (as required by state law).

(iv) Rental loss insurance in an amount equal to all unpaid Rent which would be due for a period of eighteen (18) months under the Lease. The amount of such rental loss insurance shall be increased from time to time during the Term as and when the Rent increases (including estimated increases in Additional Rent as reasonably determined by Landlord).

(v) Tenant shall obtain and maintain loss of income and extra expense insurance in amounts as will reimburse Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earnings attributable to all peril commonly insured against by prudent lessees in the business of Tenant or attributable to prevention of access to the Premises as a result of such perils.

(vi) Any other form or forms of insurance as Tenant or Landlord or any mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in form, in amounts and for insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would protect itself.

(b) All policies shall be written in a form satisfactory to Landlord and shall be taken out with insurance companies holding a General Policyholders Rating of "A" and a Financial Rating of "X" or better, as set forth in the most current issue of Bests Insurance Guide. Within ten (10) days after the execution of this Lease, and as a condition precedent to Landlord’s obligation to deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of policies or certificates evidencing the existence of the amounts and forms of coverage satisfactory to Landlord. No such policy shall be cancelable or reducible in coverage except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall, within ten days prior to the expiration of such policies, furnish Landlord with renewals or "binders" thereof, or Landlord may order such insurance and charge the cost thereof to Tenant as additional rent. If Landlord obtains any insurance that is the responsibility of Tenant under this section, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written statement setting forth the cost of any such insurance and showing in reasonable detail the manner in which it has been computed. All insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant covering the Premises, including but not limited to contents, fire, and casualty insurance, shall to the extent permitted by law expressly waive any right on the part of the insurer against the Landlord. The failure of any insurance policy to include such waiver clause or endorsement shall not affect the validity of this Lease.

ARTICLE 21

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

21.1 Casualty. If the Premises or Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice to Landlord. Within thirty (30) days after receipt from Tenant of such written notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the necessary repairs can reasonably be made: (a) within ninety (90) days; (b) in more than ninety (90) days but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days; or (c) in more than one hundred eighty (180) days, in each case after the date of the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed.

21.1.1 Less Than 90 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed within ninety (90) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed, this Lease shall not terminate and, provided that insurance proceeds are available to pay for the full repair of all damage, Landlord shall repair the Premises to the extent of insurance proceeds actually collected by Landlord, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant's Property which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by or for the benefit of Tenant. If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord's repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises) from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period the Premises are unfit for occupancy.

21.1.2 Greater Than 90 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed in more than ninety (90) days but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed, then Landlord shall have the option of: (a) terminating the Lease effective upon the occurrence of such damage, in which event the Base Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises; or (b) electing to repair the Premises, provided insurance proceeds are available to pay for the full repair of all damage (except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant's Property). If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord's repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises) from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period the Premises are unfit for occupancy. In the event that Landlord should fail to substantially complete such repairs within one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the

Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed (such period to be extended for delays caused by Tenant or because of any items of Force Majeure (as hereinafter defined), and Tenant has not reoccupied the Premises, Tenant shall have the right, as Tenant's exclusive remedy, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such one hundred eighty(180) day period, and provided that such repairs have not been substantially completed within such ten (10) day period, to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord as Tenant's exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights of Tenant hereunder shall cease and terminate thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of such notice.

21.1.3 Greater Than 180 Days. If the Premises or Building should be so damaged that rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord specifying such time period of repair; and this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises. In the event that neither party elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall commence and prosecute to completion the repairs to the Building or Premises, provided insurance proceeds are available to pay for the repair of all damage (except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant's Property). If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord's repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises), from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period that the Premises are unfit for occupancy.

21.1.4 Casualty During the Last Year of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if the Premises or the Building shall be damaged within the last year of the Lease Term, and if the cost to repair or reconstruct the portion of the Building or the Premises which was damaged or destroyed shall exceed $10,000, then, irrespective of the time necessary to complete such repair or reconstruction, Landlord shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate the Lease effective upon the occurrence of such damage, in which event the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises. The foregoing right shall be in addition to any other right and option of Landlord under this Article 21.

21.2 Uninsured Casualty. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay to Landlord Tenant's share of any deductible or retention amount payable under the property insurance for the Building. In the event that the Premises or any portion of the Building is damaged to the extent Tenant is unable to use the Premises and such damage is not covered by insurance proceeds received by Landlord or in the event that the holder of any indebtedness secured by the Premises requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord's option, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, either (i) to repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Landlord's expense, or (ii) to give written notice to

Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Landlord's intention to terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall have the right within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice to give written notice to Landlord of Tenant's commitment to pay the cost of repair of such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Landlord shall make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible subject to the following conditions: Tenant shall deposit with Landlord Landlord's estimated cost of such repairs not later than five (5) business days prior to Landlord's commencement of the repair work. If the cost of such repairs exceeds the amount deposited, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such excess cost within ten (10) business days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord. Any amount deposited by Tenant in excess of the cost of such repairs shall be refunded within thirty (30) days of Landlord's final payment to Landlord's contractor. If Tenant does not give such notice within the ten (10) day period, or fails to make such deposit as required, Landlord shall have the right, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, to immediately terminate this Lease to be effective as of the date of the occurrence of the damage.

21.3 Waiver. With respect to any damage or destruction which Landlord is obligated to repair or may elect to repair, Tenant waives all rights to terminate this Lease pursuant to rights otherwise presently or hereafter accorded by law, including without limitation any rights granted under Section 1932, subdivision 2, and Section 1933, of the California Civil Code.

ARTICLE 22

EMINENT DOMAIN

22.1 Total Condemnation. If all of the Premises is condemned by eminent domain, inversely condemned or sold under threat of condemnation for any public or quasi-public use or purpose ("Condemned"), this Lease shall terminate as of the earlier of the date the condemning authority takes title to or possession of the Premises, and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of termination.

22.2 Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the Premises or the Building is Condemned and such partial condemnation materially impairs Tenant's ability to use the Premises for Tenant's business as reasonably determined by Landlord, Landlord shall have the option in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion of either (i) relocating Tenant to comparable space within the Project or (ii) terminating this Lease as of the earlier of the date title vests in the condemning authority or as of the date an order of immediate possession is issued and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of termination. If such partial condemnation does not materially impair Tenant's ability to use the Premises for the business of Tenant, Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to the extent of any condemnation proceeds recovered by Landlord, excluding the portion thereof lost in such condemnation, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that after the date of such title vesting or order of immediate possession Rent shall be adjusted as reasonably determined by Landlord.

22.3 Award. If the Premises are wholly or partially Condemned, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award paid for such condemnation, and Tenant waives any claim to any part of the award from Landlord or the condemning authority; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to recover from the condemning authority such compensation as may be separately awarded to Tenant in connection with costs in removing Tenant’s merchandise, furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements and equipment to a new location. No condemnation of any kind shall be construed to constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant or a breach of any express or implied covenant of quiet enjoyment. Tenant hereby waives the effect of Sections 1265.120 and 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

22.4 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of a temporary condemnation not extending beyond the Term, this Lease shall remain in effect, Tenant shall continue to pay Rent and Tenant shall receive any award made for such condemnation except damages to any of Landlord's property. If a temporary condemnation is for a period which extends beyond the Term, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of initial occupancy by the condemning authority and any such award shall be distributed in accordance with the preceding section. If a temporary condemnation remains in effect at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord the reasonable cost of performing any obligations required of Tenant with respect to the surrender of the Premises.

ARTICLE 23

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

23.1 Event of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default (an "Event of Default") hereunder by Tenant:

(i) The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant. Abandonment is herein defined to include, but is not limited to, any absence by Tenant from the Premises for five (5) business days or longer.

(ii) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or additional rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due.

(iii) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the express or implied covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than as specified in Section 23.1(a)(i) or (ii) above.

(iv) (1) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (2) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within thirty (30) days); (3) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (4) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of

substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease where such seizure is not discharged within thirty days.

(v) The making of any material misrepresentation or omission by Tenant or any successor in interest of Tenant in any materials delivered by or on behalf of Tenant to Landlord or Landlord's lender pursuant to this Lease.

(vi) The occurrence of an Event of Default set forth in any of the foregoing clauses (iv) or (v) with respect to any guarantor of this Lease, if applicable.

(vii) Any failure of Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease to comply with the terms of Section 49(b) hereof.

23.2. Remedies.

23.2.1 Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant (which notice shall be in lieu of any notice required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, et seq.) and, on the date specified in such notice, this Lease shall terminate unless on or before such date all arrears of Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease and all costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other Events of Default at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord.

23.2.2 Repossession. Following termination, without prejudice to other remedies Landlord may have, Landlord may (i) peaceably re-enter the Premises upon voluntary surrender by Tenant or remove Tenant therefrom and any other persons occupying the Premises, using such legal proceedings as may be available; (ii) repossess the Premises or relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term), at such rental and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in Landlord's sole discretion shall determine, with the right to make reasonable alterations and repairs to the Premises; and (iii) remove all personal property therefrom.

23.2.3 Unpaid Rent/Sums Expended by Landlord. Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies of a landlord provided by Applicable Law, including the right to recover from Tenant: (a) the worth, at the time of award, of the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination, (b)the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned after the date of termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (c) the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (d) all unamortized free rent, if any, (e) any and all unamortized sums expended by Landlord for tenant improvements and leasing commissions, and (f) any other amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's default. The phrase "worth, at the time of award," as used in (a) and (b) above, shall

be computed at the Applicable Interest Rate, and as used in (c) above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%). The items referenced in (d) and (e) shall be amortized on a straight line basis over the length of the Term of this Lease.

23.2.4 Continuation. Even though an Event of Default may have occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession; and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 ("lessor" may continue the Lease in effect after "lessee's" breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if "lessee" has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations) to recover Rent as it becomes due. Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may, during the period Tenant is in default, enter the Premises and relet the same, or any portion thereof, to third parties for Tenant's account and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, brokers' commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises and like costs. Reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining Term. Tenant shall continue to pay the Rent on the date the same is due. No act by Landlord hereunder, including acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease, shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease. In the event that Landlord elects to relet the Premises, the rent that Landlord receives from reletting shall be applied to the payment of, first, any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Rent and Additional Rent; second, all costs, including maintenance, incurred by Landlord in reletting; and, third, Base Rent and Additional Rent under this Lease. After deducting the payments referred to above, any sum remaining from the rental Landlord receives from reletting shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord. If, on the date Rent is due under this Lease, the rent received from the reletting is less than the Rent due on that date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the remaining Rent due, all costs, including maintenance, which Landlord incurred in reletting the Premises that remain after applying the rent received from reletting as provided hereinabove. So long as this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall have the right to remedy any default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises, to cause a receiver to be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to add to the Rent payable hereunder all of Landlord's reasonable costs in so doing, including without limitation attorney's fees and costs, with interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure. Landlord shall have no duty to relet the Premises so long as it has other unleased space available in the Project.

23.2.5 Cumulative. Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and shall not preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of Rent; and

Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue other remedies.

ARTICLE 24

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

24.1 Tenant shall not voluntarily assign or encumber its interest in this Lease or in the Premises, or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or allow any other person or entity to occupy or use all or any part of the Premises, without first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent. Any assignment, encumbrance or sublease without Landlord's prior written consent shall be voidable, at Landlord's election, and shall constitute a default and at the option of the Landlord shall result in a termination of this Lease. No consent to assignment, encumbrance, or sublease shall constitute a further waiver of the provisions of this section. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's intent to sublease, encumber or assign this Lease and Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written notice, elect one of the following:

(a) Consent to such proposed assignment, encumbrance or sublease;

(b) Refuse such consent, which refusal shall be on reasonable grounds; or

(c) Recapture the entire Premises, or at Lender's election, such part as Tenant desires to sublease or assign, in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord.

In the event Landlord consents to an assignment or sublease in accordance with this Lease, the Base Rent per month under this Lease shall be increased to the fair market value as reasonably determined by Landlord, to be effective on the effective date of such assignment or sublease; provided that in no event shall the amount of Base Rent be lower than the amount of Base Rent Tenant is then paying under the Lease.

24.2 As a condition for granting its consent to any assignment, encumbrance or sublease, sixty (60) days prior to any anticipated assignment or sublease Tenant shall give Landlord and Landlord's lender written notice (the "Assignment Notice"), which shall set forth the name, address and business of the proposed assignee or sublessee, information (including references) concerning the character, ownership, and financial condition of the proposed assignee or sublessee, and the Assignment Date, any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the proposed assignee or sublessee, and the consideration of all other material terms and conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease, all in such detail as Landlord shall reasonably require. If Landlord requests additional detail, the Assignment Notice shall not be deemed to have been received until Landlord receives such additional detail, and Landlord may withhold consent to any assignment or sublease until such additional detail is provided to it. Further, Landlord may require that the sublessee or assignee remit directly to Landlord on a monthly basis, all monies due to Tenant by said assignee or sublessee.

24.3 The consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not be construed as relieving Tenant or any assignee of this Lease or sublessee of the Premises from obtaining the

express written consent of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting or as releasing Tenant or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant from any liability or obligation hereunder whether or not then accrued. Regardless of whether or not Landlord shall consent to an assignment or sublease, Tenant shall pay Landlord all of Landlord's attorneys' fees and administrative costs incurred in connection with evaluating the Assignment Notice immediately upon demand. This section shall be fully applicable to all further sales, hypothecations, transfers, assignments and subleases of any portion of the Premises by any successor or assignee of Tenant, or any sublessee of the Premises.

24.4 As used in this section, the subletting of substantially all of the Premises for substantially all of the remaining term of this Lease shall be deemed an assignment rather than a sublease. The assignment, sale or transfer of a twenty-five (25%) interest in Tenant shall be deemed an assignment requiring Landlord's consent hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall consent to the assignment, sale or transfer if the Assignment Notice states that Tenant desires to assign the Lease to any entity into which Tenant is merged, with which Tenant is consolidated or which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, provided that the assignee first executes, acknowledges and delivers to Landlord an agreement whereby the assignee agrees to be bound by all of the covenants and agreements in this Lease which Tenant has agreed to keep, observe or perform, that the assignee agrees that the provisions of this section shall be binding upon it as if it were the original Tenant hereunder and that the assignee shall have a net worth (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied) immediately after such assignment which is at least equal to the net worth (as so determined) of Tenant: (1) at the commencement of this Lease or (2) immediately before such assignment; whichever is greater.

24.5 Except as provided above, Landlord's consent to any sublease or assignment shall not be unreasonably withheld. A condition to such consent shall be delivery by Tenant to Landlord of a true copy of the sublease or assignment agreement. If for any proposed assignment or sublease Tenant receives rent or other consideration, either initially or over the term of the assignment or sublease, in excess of the Rent called for hereunder (as such Rent is adjusted pursuant to Section 24.1), or, in case of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such rent fairly allocable to such portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments called for hereunder are taken into account, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent hereunder one hundred percent (100%) of the excess of each such payment of rent or other consideration received by Tenant promptly after its receipt. Landlord's waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall not relieve Tenant from any obligation under this lease. For the purpose of this section, the Rent for each square foot of floor space in the Premises shall be deemed equal.

ARTICLE 25

SUBORDINATION; MORTGAGEE PROTECTION

25.1 Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all ground leases, master leases and the lien of all mortgages and deeds of trust which now or hereafter affect the Premises or the Project or Landlord's interest therein, the CC&Rs and all amendments thereto, all without the necessity of Tenant's executing further instruments to effect such subordination. If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord's request whatever documentation that may reasonably be required to further effect the provisions of this section including, without limitation, a Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement in such form as may be required by Landlord's lender. Should any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust request that this Lease and Tenant's rights hereunder be made superior, rather than subordinate, to the mortgage or deed of trust, then Tenant will, within ten (10) days after written request, execute and deliver such agreement as may be required by such holder in order to effectuate and evidence such superiority of the Lease to the mortgage or deed of trust.

25.2 Attornment. Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant will recognize as its landlord under this Lease and shall attorn to any person succeeding to the interest of Landlord in respect of the land and the buildings governed by this Lease upon any foreclosure of any mortgage upon such land or buildings or upon the execution of any deed in lieu of foreclosure in respect to such deed of trust. If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming its attornment as provided for herein; provided, however, that no such beneficiary or successor- in-interest shall be bound by any payment of Base Rent for more than one (1) month in advance, or any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the express written consent of such beneficiary where such consent is required under applicable loan documents.

25.3 Mortgagee Protection. Tenant agrees to give Landlord's lender or any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust secured by the Project, by registered or certified mail or nationally recognized overnight delivery service, a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord by Tenant, provided that, prior to such notice, Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of service on Tenant of a copy of assignment of rents and leases or otherwise) of the address of such lender or such holder of a mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within sixty (60) days after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced within such sixty (60) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then Landlord's lender or the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust shall have an additional ninety (90) days within which to cure or correct such default (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if such holder of any mortgage or deed of trust has commenced within such ninety (90) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Landlord's lender or any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust have any obligation to cure any default of the Landlord.

ARTICLE 26

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE

(a) Within ten days following any written request which Landlord or Landlord's lender may make from time to time, Tenant shall duly execute (and if required by Landlord or Landlord's lender, have such signature acknowledged) and deliver to Landlord and Landlord's lender, an estoppel certificate in the form then in use by Landlord or its lender. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Article 26 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Building or Project or any interest therein.

(b) Tenant's failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be an Event of Default hereunder and shall conclusive upon Tenant:

(i) That this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord,

(ii) That there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance,

(iii) That not more than one month's rental has been paid in advance; and

(iv) That Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against Rent hereunder.

If Landlord's lender should require that this Lease be amended (other than in the description of the Premises, the Term, the Permitted Use, the Rent or as will substantially, materially and adversely affect the rights of Tenant), Landlord shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, which notice shall be accompanied by a Lease supplement embodying such amendments. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the receipt of Landlord's notice, execute and deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement. If Tenant fails to deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord's notice, Tenant shall be deemed to have given Landlord a power of attorney to execute such supplement on behalf of Tenant.

ARTICLE 27

SIGNAGE

Except as expressly permitted in this Article 27, Tenant shall not, without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) install or maintain signage in any location in, on or about the Premises, the Building, the Project, or Xxxxxx Corporate Park and shall not display or erect any Tenant identification sign, display or other advertising material that is visible from the exterior of the Building.

(a) During the Term, and subject to the remainder of this Article 27, Tenant shall have the following signage rights (collectively, “Tenant’s Signs”): (i) the right to maintain the

following signage which exists as of the date of this Lease: _________ (“Existing Signage”), (ii) the right to design, prepare and install, at Tenant’s sole cost, one (1) parapet sign on the eastern exterior wall of the Building (facing Valley Avenue) in a location to be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant (and subject to approval by the City of Pleasanton) (“Parapet Signage”), and (iii) the right to maintain Tenant’s existing sign panels upon the monument sign located on Xxxx Center Parkway and/or to modify or replace such existing sign panels at Tenant’s cost (“Monument Signage”), provided, however, that in no event shall Tenant modify, replace or remove the “Sycamore Terrace” designation thereon. Landlord shall have the right to reasonably approve of the color, size, place and materials of all of Tenant’s Signs.

(b) Tenant shall pay for the cost of Tenant’s Signs to be permitted, designed, prepared, installed and maintained in good condition and repair. In installing the Parapet Signage, Tenant shall not penetrate any bricks on the Building façade or metal sash, it being understood and agreed that any penetration shall be at grout joints. If Tenant fails to maintain Tenant’s Signs or if Tenant fails to remove Tenant’s Signs upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Landlord may do so at Tenant's expense and Tenant's reimbursement to Landlord for such amounts shall be deemed Additional Rent. Tenant shall cause all signs to comply with all applicable laws and governmental requirements, all matters of record (including, without limitation, the CC&Rs) and all rules and regulations set forth by Landlord as may be modified from time to time. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of removal of Tenant’s Signs and to repair any damage resulting from the installation or removal of the same.

(c) Tenant shall have the right to remove the words “Sycamore Terrace” from the directory sign in the lobby of the Building, provided, however, that Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost of restoring the same upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant’s placement of additional identification signage upon the directory sign shall be at Tenant’s sole cost.

ARTICLE 28

Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with the "Rules and Regulations," a copy of which is attached hereto and marked EXHIBIT D, and all reasonable and nondiscriminatory modifications thereof and additions thereto from time to time put into effect by Landlord.

(b) If Landlord is named as a defendant in any suit brought against Tenant in connection with or arising out of Tenant's occupancy hereunder, Tenant shall pay to Landlord its costs and expenses incurred in such suit, including reasonable attorneys' fees.

All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permissible by law, from the date of such payment by Landlord, shall be payable to Landlord on demand. Tenant covenants to pay any such sums and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) all rights and remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Tenant as are set forth in Article 23 hereof.

ARTICLE 34

MORTGAGEE PROTECTION

In the event of any default on the part of Landlord, Tenant will give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgage covering the Premises whose address shall have been furnished to Tenant, and shall offer such beneficiary or mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including time to obtain possession of the Premises by power of sale or a judicial foreclosure, if such should prove necessary to effect a cure.

ARTICLE 35

The term "Landlord", as used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title of the Premises or the lessees under any ground lease, if any. In the event of any transfer, assignment or other conveyance or transfers of any such title, Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer, assignment or conveyance of all liability as respects the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed. Without further agreement, the transferee of such title shall be deemed to have assumed and agreed to observe and perform any and all obligations of Landlord hereunder, during its ownership of the Premises. Landlord may transfer its interest in the Premises without the consent of Tenant and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord's part of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease.

OPTION TO RENEW

(a) Subject to the terms of this Article 55 and provided that no Event of Default has occurred, Tenant shall have one (1) option to extend (“Renewal Option”) the Term of this Lease for sixty (60) months commencing upon the day immediately following the Expiration Date ("Extension Term").

(b) Base Rent for the Extension Term shall be adjusted to be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market rental value ("FMV") for comparable properties in Pleasanton, California as such FMV is reasonably determined by Landlord.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Tenant shall have no right to exercise the Renewal Option (or if the Renewal Option is exercised, but the following conditions are not satisfied, then the exercise of the Renewal Option shall be void) if: (i) there has been materially adverse change in the financial condition of the Tenant, as of the Commencement Date, or (ii) if the net worth (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied) of the Tenant at the time it desires to exercise the Renewal Option or as of the commencement date of the Extension Term is less than the net worth (as so determined) of Tenant: (1) at the Commencement Date or (2) mutual execution and delivery of this Lease, whichever is greater. Tenant shall be required, as a condition precedent to the Renewal Option being validly exercised, to provide evidence (which shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord) that the foregoing conditions have been satisfied. Additionally, it shall be a condition precedent to exercise of the Renewal Option that Landlord and Tenant execute and deliver an amendment to this Lease not later than thirty (3) days after the exercise by Tenant of the Renewal Option.

(d) No later than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord an amount, that when taken together with the Security Deposit, equals the Base Rent due for the last month of the Extension Term ("Renewal Deposit"). Upon the commencement of the Extension Term, the term "Security Deposit" shall automatically include the "Renewal Deposit" and the Renewal Deposit shall be held pursuant to the terms of Article 5 hereof.

ARTICLE 56

NOTICE OF INTENT TO SELL

Landlord shall perform such improvements in the restrooms on each floor following of the Building as are set forth in the Restrooms Preliminary Pricing Plan prepared by Xxxxxxx & Wall, dated March 4, 2019 attached hereto as Exhibit G (“Restroom Remodel”). Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Substantially Complete the Restroom Remodel in accordance with the “Preliminary Schedule” prepared by Metcon TI, Inc. dated March 3, 2019 attached hereto as Exhibit G-1, subject to Tenant Delays and events of Force Majeure.

Tenant hereby acknowledges and approves that Landlord will be conducting the Restroom Remodel and System Replacement during Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises.

To the extent necessary, Tenant shall ready the Premises and otherwise cooperate with Landlord to enable Landlord to construct the Restroom Remodel and perform the System Replacement without delay. For the sake of clarity, the Restroom Remodel and System Replacement shall not be deemed part of the Tenant Improvements.

TENANT REFURBISHMENT ALLOWANCE

Landlord acknowledges and agrees that the Original Lease (specifically, Section 8 (Tenant Refurbishment Allowance) of the Seventh Amendment) entitled Tenant to a Tenant refurbishment allowance for items of minor repair or touch up within the Premises (such as repainting the interior walls of the Premises)(“Refurbishment Items”).

Tenant shall have the right to request disbursements of the Tenant Refurbishment Allowance for Refurbishment Items in accordance herewith until January 31, 2025, so long as no Event of Default has occurred after applicable notice and cure periods. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to make disbursements with respect to the Refurbishment Items pursuant to this Article 58 in a total amount which exceeds the Tenant Refurbishment Allowance and in the event that the total cost of the Refurbishment Items shall exceed the Tenant Refurbishment Allowance, then Tenant shall be solely and exclusively responsible for such excess costs. The Refurbishment Items shall be considered Alterations as defined in this Lease and shall be performed in accordance with the terms of this Lease. No unused portion of the Tenant Refurbishment Allowance shall be applicable toward Rent. When Tenant has completed Refurbishment Items in compliance with the Lease and so long as no Event of Default has occurred (after applicable notice and cure periods), and provided that Landlord has received no notice of the filing or threatened filing of any mechanic's or materialmen's lien, Landlord shall disburse to Tenant, no more than once per calendar quarter, the amount of Tenant Refurbishment Allowance due to Tenant within ten (10) business days after the last to occur of the following: Landlord's receipt of (i) invoices from Tenant and/or all of Tenant's contractors, subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers retained directly or indirectly by Tenant for labor rendered and materials delivered to the Premises (“Tenant's

Agents”) and (ii) executed unconditional and irrevocable, final mechanic's lien releases from all of Tenant's Agents in statutory form.

CIVIL CODE SECTION 1938 DISCLOSURE

Pursuant to Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby advises Tenant that as of the date of this Lease neither the Premises, the Building nor the Project have undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist. Further, pursuant to Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord notifies Tenant of the following: “A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the Premises and determine whether the Premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although California state law does not require a CASp inspection of the Premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the Premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of any such CASp inspection, the payment of the costs and fees for the CASp inspection and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the Premises.” Therefore and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord and Tenant agree that (a) Tenant may, at its option and at its sole cost, cause a CASp to inspect the Premises and determine whether the Premises complies with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under California law, (b) the parties shall mutually coordinate and reasonably approve of the timing of any such CASp inspection so that Landlord may, at its option, have a representative present during such inspection, and (c) Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost of any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the Premises, in the Building or at the Project identified by any such CASp inspection, and if any alterations and repairs to other portions of the Building or the Project are required as a result of Tenant’s CASp inspection then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, for the cost to Landlord of performing such alterations and repairs; provided, however, unless such repair or alterations relate solely to other alterations to the Premises which Tenant is obligated to, //or elects to, remove upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term (in which case Tenant shall simultaneously also remove any CASp identified alterations and repairs), Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any repairs or alterations made pursuant to a CASp inspection under this Article 59.
