d. Section 43(b) is hereby amended by deletion of subsections (1) and
(2) and substitution of the following in lieu thereof:
"(1) (i) Without demand or notice, to reenter and take
possession of the Leased Premises or any part thereof and repossess the same as
of Landlord's former estate and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under
Tenant and remove the effects of both or either, without being deemed guilty of
any manner of trespass and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent
or preceding breach of covenants or conditions. Should Landlord elect to
reenter, as provided in this subparagraph (1), or should Landlord take
possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for
by law, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet
the Leased Premises or any part thereof, either alone or in conjunction with
other portions of the Building of which the Leased Premises are a part, in
Landlord's or Tenant's name but for the account of Tenant, for such term or
terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the term of this Lease) and on such commercially
reasonable conditions and upon such other terms (which may include concessions
of free rent and alteration and repair of the Leased Premises) as Landlord, in
its discretion, may determine and Landlord may collect and receive the rents
therefor, which rights include the rights of Landlord under Section 1951.4 of
the California Civil Code. In the event that Landlord elects to avail itself of
the remedy provided by this subparagraph (1), Landlord shall not unreasonably
withhold its consent to an assignment or subletting of the Leased Premises
subject to the reasonable standards for Landlord's consent as are contained in
this Lease. In addition, in the event Tenant has entered into a sublease which
is valid under the terms of this Lease, Landlord may also, at its option, cause
Tenant to assign to Landlord the interest of Tenant under said sublease,
including, but not limited to, Tenant's right to payment of rent as it becomes
due. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable for any failure to relet
the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, or for any failure to collect any rent
due upon such reletting. No such reentry or taking possession of the Leased
Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord's part to
terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to
Tenant. No notice from Landlord hereunder or under a forcible entry and detainer
statute or sim-
4
ilar law shall constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless
such notice specifically so states. Landlord reserves the right following any
such reentry and/or reletting to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by
giving Tenant such written notice, in which event the Lease will terminate as
specified in said notice.
(ii) If Landlord elects to take possession of the Leased
Premises as provided in this subparagraph (1) without terminating the Lease,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord (a) the rent and other sums as herein provided,
which would be payable hereunder if such repossession had not occurred, less (b)
the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased Premises after
deducting all of Landlord's commercially reasonable expenses incurred in
connection with such reletting, including, but without limitation, all
repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees,
expenses of employees, alteration, remodeling, and repair costs and expenses of
preparation for such reletting. If, in connection with any reletting, the new
lease term extends beyond the existing Term or the premises covered thereby
include other premises not part of the Leased Premises, a fair apportionment of
the rent received from such reletting and the expenses incurred in connection
therewith, as provided aforesaid, will be made in determining the net proceeds
received from such reletting. In addition, in determining the net proceeds from
such reletting, any rent concessions will be apportioned over the term of the
new lease. Tenant shall pay such amounts to Landlord monthly on the days on
which Minimum Rent and Additional Rent and all other amounts owing hereunder
would have been payable if possession had not been retaken and Landlord shall be
entitled to receive the same from Tenant on each such day; or
(2) To give Tenant written notice of intention to terminate
this Lease on the date of such given notice or on any later date specified
therein and, on the date specified in such notice, Tenant's right to possession
of the Leased Premises shall cease and the Lease shall thereupon be terminated,
except as to Tenant's liability hereunder as hereinafter provided, as if the
expiration of the term fixed in such notice were the end of the Term herein
originally demised. In the event this Lease is terminated pursuant to the
provisions of this subparagraph (2), Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord for,
and Landlord shall have the right to recover from Tenant, an amount equal to (i)
the worth at the time of the award of the unpaid Minimum Rent and Additional
Rent which had been earned at the time of termination, (ii) the worth at the
time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Minimum Rent and Additional Rent
which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds
the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably
avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of the award by which the unpaid Minimum
Rent and Additional Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of the award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could
5
be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate
Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform
its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would
be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, the cost of
recovering possession of the Leased Premises, commissions and other expenses of
reletting, including necessary repair, demolition and renovation of the Leased
Premises to the condition required to be in at the expiration of the Term, the
cost of rectifying any damage to the Leased Premises occasioned by the act or
omission of Tenant, reasonable attorneys fees and any other reasonable costs;
and (v) at Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of
the foregoing as may be permitted by law. "Worth at the time of award" as used
in clauses (i) and (ii) above, shall be computed at the rate provided in
Paragraph 4(c) above. As used in clause (iii) above, "worth at the time of
award" shall be computed by discounting the amount at the discount rate of the
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award plus 1%."
e. If there is any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the
terms of the Lease, the terms of this Amendment govern. The Lease as hereby
amended is in full force and effect, is hereby ratified and affirmed by the
parties, and is binding upon the parties in accordance with its terms.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have entered into this First
Amendment effective as of August 27, 1997, having executed this Lease on the
dates set forth in the following notarizations. This First Amendment may be
executed in counterparts, each of which (or any combination of which) when
signed by all of the parties shall be deemed an original, but all of which when
taken together shall constitute but one agreement. Any one or more of such
duplicate signature pages may be removed from any one or more of such
counterparts and annexed to other counterparts and duplicate signature pages to
form a completely executed original Lease.

WITNESSETH:
1. Leased Premises. Landlord does hereby demise and let unto Tenant
and Tenant does hereby lease and take from Landlord for the term and upon the
conditions set forth in this Lease:
ALL THAT CERTAIN Lot or piece of ground located on Rancho
Xxxxxxxx Road, in the County of San Diego, State of California, commonly known
as lot 63, 4S Ranch and which is more particularly described on EXHIBIT "A",
attached hereto (the "Leased Premises"), the same being a subdivided lot within

TOGETHER WITH the building to be erected thereon, of 3 stories
and approximately 130,000 gross square feet, having approximately 127,000
rentable square feet (the "Building") and parking structure; and
TOGETHER WITH the rights and easements to use, in common with
others, those easements established for the benefit of owners and occupants
under the Declaration; and
TOGETHER WITH and UNDER AND SUBJECT TO the benefit of all
rights, appurtenances, privileges, easements, rights of ingress or egress,
licenses or hereditaments, now or hereafter belonging or appertaining to the

TOGETHER WITH and UNDER AND SUBJECT TO the benefit and burden
of the easements, covenants and restrictions contained in that certain
Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of 4-S Ranch Business

"Declaration");
SUBJECT, however, to all restrictions, rights, easements or
agreements specifically listed on EXHIBIT "C" hereto.
17
2. Term, Rent Commencement Date; Conditions Precedent.
(a) Length of Term. The initial term of this Lease (the
"Initial Term") shall commence on the date hereof ("Commencement Date") and
shall continue to and include the date ("Expiration Date") which is the last day
of the tenth (10th) Lease Year (as defined in subparagraph (c) below). If Tenant
shall elect to extend the Initial Term for one or more Renewal Periods pursuant
to Paragraph 3 below, the term of this Lease (the "Term") shall mean the Initial
Term together with each Renewal Period for which Tenant has exercised a Renewal
Option and the Expiration Date shall be the last day of the last Renewal Period
for which Tenant has exercised a Renewal Option.
(b) Rent Commencement Date Defined. The "Rent Commencement
Date" shall mean the date on which Tenant's rental obligation for the entire
Leased Premises commences, which shall be the later of (i) the 96th calendar day
following the date on which Landlord has delivered all floors of the Leased
Premises "Tenant Ready" as hereinafter defined, or (ii) the date on which
Substantial Completion, as hereinafter defined, has occurred.
(c) Lease Year Defined. The first "Lease Year" shall be the
period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months from the Rent Commencement
Date. The first Lease Year shall commence on the Rent Commencement Date if the
Rent Commencement Date is the first day of a calendar month or, if not, on the
first day of the first calendar month immediately following the Rent
Commencement Date (and for purposes of payment of Rent such partial month period
from the Rent Commencement Date to the first of the calendar month shall be
deemed part of the first Lease Year). Each subsequent Lease Year shall commence
on the anniversary of the commencement date of the first Lease Year.
(d) No Obligations Prior to Rent Commencement. Tenant shall
not be obligated to pay any Additional Rent due hereunder or to perform any of
Tenant's obligations hereunder during the period between the Commencement Date
and the Rent Commencement Date, with the exception of Tenant's obligations
hereunder which this Lease expressly provides shall arise prior to the Rent
Commencement Date.
(e) Delay in Completion.
(A) If Landlord has failed to commence construction
of the Building (as evidenced by Landlord obtaining a permit permitting grading
and commencing site grading in accordance with the Final Plans and
Specifications) by October 15, 1997 (the "Construction Deadline"), then either
party shall have the right to deliver notice to the other of its intention to
terminate this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord shall have a right to
terminate under this Section 2(e)(A) only if Landlord has failed to commence
construction as a result of the failure of the governmental authorities to issue
a grading permit or as a result of governmental authorities issuance of a direct
order preventing such grading for reasons beyond Landlord's control. If the
notice of intent to terminate is delivered by Landlord to Tenant, this Lease
shall terminate fifteen (15) days after Tenant's receipt of such notice, unless
Landlord and Tenant can agree in writing on an extension of the Construction
Deadline. If Tenant delivers notice to Landlord that Tenant intends to terminate
this Lease
2
18
and, within fifteen (15) days following receipt of such notice Landlord fails to
commence construction, then Tenant shall have a right thereafter to immediately
terminate this Lease by notice given to Landlord but such termination notice
shall only be deemed effective if actually received by Landlord prior to the
commencement of construction.
(B) Following commencement of construction, if Landlord
discontinues construction of Landlord's Work for one-hundred twenty (120)
consecutive days for reasons other than Unavoidable Delay (but excluding Tenant
Delay), then Tenant shall have the right to deliver notice to Landlord of its
intention to terminate this Lease. If Tenant delivers such notice and Landlord
fails to recommence construction within fifteen (15) days following receipt of
such notice, Tenant shall have a right thereafter to immediately terminate this
Lease by notice to Landlord, but such termination notice shall only be deemed
effective if actually received by Landlord prior to the recommencement of
construction.
(C) If the Tenant Ready Date (as hereinafter defined) has not
occurred on or before September 1, 1998, which deadline shall be extended by any
Tenant Delay ("Completion Deadline"), and Tenant is unable to substantially
complete Tenant's Work by November 28, 1998, then: Tenant shall have the right
to receive a Rent credit against Rent first due following the Rent Commencement
Date, equal the product of: (a) the number of days the Tenant Ready Date is
delayed beyond the Completion Deadline, or the number of days beyond November
28, 1998 that Tenant is unable to substantially complete Tenant's Work,
whichever is less, multiplied by (b) Tenant's Holdover Costs. "Tenant's Holdover
Costs" shall mean an amount, calculated on a daily basis, equal to amount by
which the holdover rental payments for the Existing Premises for the period of
such delay exceed the Minimum Rent rate applicable during the first Lease Year;
to the extent that Tenant is not permitted to holdover in any portion of the
Existing Premises and obtains substitute space for temporary occupancy purposes,
the commercially reasonable out-of-pocket costs of moving to and renting such
temporary space shall be considered "holdover rental payments" under the
foregoing calculation. The "Existing Premises" shall mean and refer to office
space being leased by Tenant under the leases applicable to such space as of the
date hereof: approximately 53,907 rentable square feet at 00000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxx
Xxxxx, approximately 50,868 rentable square feet at 00000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx,
and approximately 3,200 rentable square feet at 00000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx.
(D) If none of the Leased Premises has been made available in
a Tenant Ready condition to permit Tenant to commence Tenant's Work by September
1, 1999 (which deadline shall be extended by Tenant Delay), Tenant shall have a
right to terminate this Lease by notice delivered to Landlord on or before
September 10, 1999; if this Lease is terminated in accordance with the foregoing
provision, this Lease shall be deemed to have expired in accordance with its
terms and Landlord and Tenant shall be relieved of liability for all obligations
arising thereafter under this Lease.
(E) The remedies provided in this Paragraph 2(e) shall be
Tenant's sole remedies for delays in completion of Landlord's Work; in no event
shall Landlord be liable for direct, actual, or consequential damages or lost
profits arising from such delay and Tenant shall have no right to terminate this
Lease as a result of such delay except as provided in this Paragraph 2(e).
3
19
(F) If Landlord is delayed in delivering any portion
of the Leased Premises Tenant Ready as a result of Tenant Delay or is delayed in
Substantial Completion of Landlord's Work as a result of Tenant Delay, Tenant's
obligation to pay Minimum Rent under Paragraph 4(b) shall commence on the date
that such obligations would have occurred but for such Tenant Delay.
3. Options to Extend. The Term of this Lease may be extended
by Tenant, at Tenant's sole option ("Renewal Option"), for two (2) consecutive
periods of five (5) years each (each, a "Renewal Period," and collectively,
"Renewal Periods"), from and after the expiration of the Initial Term by giving
Landlord prior written notice of the exercise of the Renewal Option elected by
Tenant not less than twelve (12) months before the end of the Initial Term or
six (6) months before the end of the then current Renewal Period, as the case
may be. If Tenant exercises a Renewal Option, all of the terms and provisions of
this Lease applicable during the Initial Term (including the Additional Rent
payable hereunder) shall be applicable to the Renewal Period in question without
execution of an extension or renewal lease but the Minimum Rent shall be
determined in accordance with Paragraph 4(b) below and Landlord shall have no
obligation to complete additional improvements or provide a tenant finish
allowance to Tenant.
4. Minimum Rent.
(a) Initial Term. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord as minimum
rent ("Minimum Rent"), commencing on the Rent Commencement Date (except as
otherwise provided in Paragraph 2, above or elsewhere in this Lease) and
continuing through the remainder of the Initial Term, payable on the first day
of each month in advance (except that if the Rent Commencement Date is other
than the first of a month, the first monthly installment of Minimum Rent will be
pro-rated on a per diem basis, and the last installment of Minimum Rent will be
due and payable on the Expiration Date) as follows:
Year Monthly Minimum Rent
---- --------------------
First $153,152.00
Second $157,747.00
Third $162,479.00
Fourth $167,353.00
Fifth $172,374.00
Sixth $177,545.00
Seventh $182,871.00
Eighth $188,358.00
Ninth $194,008.00
Tenth $199,829.00
(b) Renewal Terms. Tenant agrees to pay as monthly Minimum
Rent during each of the Renewal Terms, if exercised by Tenant, an amount,
payable on the first day of each month in advance, determined in accordance with
the following provisions:
4
20
(A) The monthly Minimum Rent for the first Lease year of the
applicable Renewal Term shall equal the greater of (x) 103% of the monthly
Minimum Rent applicable during the last month of the month preceding the
commencement of the respective Renewal Term, and (z) the Fair Market Rental
Value for the Leased Premises.
(B) The monthly Minimum Rent for each Lease Year of the
respective Renewal Term following the first Lease Year shall be an amount equal
to 103% of the monthly Minimum Rent applicable to the immediately preceding
Lease Year (so that the annual Minimum Rent shall increase by 3% each Lease
Year following the first Lease Year).
(C) If Tenant exercises its Renewal Option by notice in
accordance with Xxxxxxxxx 0, Xxxxxxxx shall give Tenant written notice of
Landlord's determination of Fair Market Rental Value by the later of (x) the
first business day of the eleventh month preceding the Renewal Term for which
Minimum Rent is to be determined, and (y) 30 days following receipt of Tenant's
notice exercising its Renewal Option under Paragraph 3 above. If Tenant notifies
Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord's determination of
Fair Market Rental Value that Tenant disputes such determination, Fair Market
Rental Value shall be determined according to the procedures set forth in
subparagraph E below. If Tenant does not notify Landlord that it disputes
Landlord's determination of Fair Market Rental Value within the time period
herein provided, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted such determination.
(D) The "Fair Market Rental Value" for the Leased Premises
shall mean: the monthly payment based on the annual amount per square foot
(exclusive of Additional Rent) that a willing tenant would pay and a willing
landlord would accept following arms-length negotiations with respect to an
"Assumed Lease" (as defined below) under the circumstances as of the
determination. "Assumed Lease" means (i) a lease of a "Comparable Building" for
a term equal to the Renewal Term, scheduled to commence at the time such Renewal
Term is scheduled to commence; and (ii) taking into consideration and making
adjustment to reflect allowances and concessions (provided, however, that such
assumption shall not obligate Landlord to pay any allowances or contributions or
to complete any Landlord Work). "Comparable Building" shall mean any first class
suburban office building in the Rancho Xxxxxxxx area which is of a size and
quality reasonably comparable to the Leased Premises; provided that, to the
extent such comparable buildings are not identical, appropriate adjustments
shall be made to adjust for differences in the size, location, age, efficiency
of floorplate, quality of buildings, and type and amount of parking between such
other buildings and the Leased Premises.
(E) Whenever it is necessary to determine Fair Market Rental
Value for purposes of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall confer and attempt
to agree as to such Fair Market Rental Value. If either party concludes after
conferring with the other that agreement is unlikely to be reached it shall
notify the other of such conclusion and each party shall, within fifteen days
after the date of such notice, notify the other party of the name of a qualified
appraiser selected by such party to participate in the determination of Fair
Market Rental Value, and the two appraisers so selected, within thirty (30) days
after their selection, shall select a third qualified appraiser to participate
in such determination; if they are unable to agree on a third appraiser, the
selection shall be made by the highest
5
21
officer in the San Diego chapter of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or its successor, who is a qualified appraiser. Within fifteen (15)
days of selection of the third appraiser, each of the two appraisers selected by
Landlord and Tenant shall state, in writing, the appraiser's determination of
the Fair Market Rental Value supported by the reasons therefor and shall make
counterpart copies for each of the other appraisers, under an arrangement for
simultaneous exchange of the determinations. The role of the third appraiser
shall be to select whichever of the two proposed resolutions most closely
approximates the third appraiser's own determination of the Fair Market Rental
Value. The third appraiser shall have no right to propose a middle ground or any
modifications of either of the two proposed resolutions. The resolution the
third appraiser chooses as the most closely approximating the third appraiser's
determination shall constitute the determination of Fair Market Rental Value and
shall be final and binding upon the parties. For purposes of this subparagraph
the term "qualified appraiser" means a person who has been designated by the
American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers as a M.A.I. (Member Appraisal
Institute) (or its equivalent) and who has been for at least the four most
recent years a M.A.I. in good standing, who has for at least the four most
recent years been regularly engaged in appraising commercial real estate in the
San Diego metropolitan area, who has no financial interest in either party to
this Lease, is not related by blood or marriage to any officer or director of
either party and has not been an officer or director of either party. If either
party fails to notify the other of such party's choice of a qualified appraiser,
the qualified appraiser selected by the notifying party shall make the
determination of Fair Market Rental Value. The Fair Market Rental Value
determined in accordance with the procedures described above shall be final and
binding on both parties, absent fraud or flagrant disregard of the standards set
forth in this Lease by one or more of the appraisers. Each party shall pay the
costs of the appraiser selected by it and share the cost of the third appraiser.
In the event of a failure, refusal or inability of any appraiser to act, the
appraiser shall appoint a successor, but in the case of the third appraiser, a
successor shall be appointed in the same manner as provided above with respect
to appointment of the original third appraiser. Any decision on procedures and
interpretations of the standards set forth herein in which the appraisers for
Landlord and Tenant concur shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties,
except that such appraisers shall not attempt by themselves to mutually
ascertain the Fair Market Rental Value.
(c) Late Interest. In any case where: (i) any installment of
Minimum Rent or Additional Rent is not paid when the same is due, or (ii) any
other sum or charge which is owing from Tenant to Landlord hereunder, is not
paid within fifteen (15) days after the same is due and payable or within any
cure period applicable thereto, whichever is later, then such amount shall
thereafter bear interest at an annual rate (the "Interest Rate") which is equal
to three percent (3%) over the "prime rate" then being quoted in the Money Rates
section (or similar section if renamed or eliminated) of The Wall Street Journal
or, if such publication is not in existence, the prime rate published in a
similar national business-oriented newspaper or publication.
5. Assessments - Under Declaration. Tenant will pay when due, to the
party or parties entitled thereto, all assessments owing for periods following
the Rent Commencement Date through the Expiration Date with respect to the
Leased Premises under the Declaration; Tenant shall provide evidence of payment
to Landlord for each such
6
22
payment on or prior to the date such payments are due. Such assessments will be
pro-rated between Landlord and Tenant on a per diem basis for any period
preceding the Rent Commencement Date or following the Expiration Date
constituting part of an assessment period.
6. Real Estate Taxes.
(a) Real Estate Taxes Defined. The term "Real Estate
Taxes" shall mean all ad valorem real estate taxes which may be assessed,
levied, or imposed upon the Leased Premises for any period during the Initial
Term and the Renewal Period from and after the Rent Commencement Date and all
other assessments, fees and other governmental charges and levies, of any kind
or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, assessments, fees, levies
and charges imposed for public improvements or benefits, or for public services
such as fire protection, street, sidewalk and road maintenance or refuse
removal, and interest on unpaid installments) which may be levied, assessed or
imposed, or become liens upon or arise out of the use, occupancy, ownership, or
possession of the Leased Premises, and which accrue during or are allocable to
the Term. "Real Estate Taxes" shall include amounts required to be paid under
the Bond issued under the 1915 Act for Improvement of 4S Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00-0
("00-0 Xxxx"), and supplemental taxes or assessments pursuant to the California
Revenue and Taxation Code, but shall not include building permit fees, utility
tap fees and similar one time fees incurred in connection with the initial
construction of the Building and related improvements. Tenant shall pay to the
Escrow Agent monthly, on each date on which a payment of Minimum Rent is due,
1/12 of such amount as the Escrow Agent from time to time estimates will be
required to pay all Real Estate Taxes required to be paid. The Escrow Agent's
estimates shall be based on the amounts actually payable or, if unknown, on the
amounts actually paid for the year preceding that for which such payments are
being made. Any deficiencies shall be promptly paid by Tenant to the Escrow
Agent on demand. When the Escrow Agent has received from Tenant or on its
account funds sufficient to pay the same, the Escrow Agent shall pay such Real
Estate Tax bills. If the amount paid by Tenant in any year exceeds the aggregate
required, such excess shall be applied to Real Estate Taxes payments for the
succeeding year. "Escrow Agent" means (i) the Mortgagee, if such Mortgagee
elects to act in such capacity pursuant to tax payment escrow provisions of the
applicable loan documents, or otherwise (ii) a title company or other escrow
agent selected by Landlord. The Escrow Agent's fees for holding and disbursing
such amounts shall be paid by Tenant and Tenant shall have the right to receive
any interest earned on amounts held in escrow, if any; such escrow shall be used
solely for payment of Real Estate Taxes (including reimbursement of Landlord for
Real Estate Taxes advanced by Landlord, if applicable) and such fees (if not
otherwise paid by Tenant) and for no other purpose. Tenant shall have a right to
prepay the amounts due under the 89-1 Bond in accordance with its terms, but
such prepayment shall not be credited against payment of Rent or be pro-rated in
the event the Lease terminates or expires prior to the date of which the 89-1
Bond payments would otherwise have been paid.
(b) Payments in Lieu of Taxes. If at any time during
the Term of this Lease the methods of taxation prevailing on the date hereof
shall be altered so that in lieu of or as a substitute for the whole or any part
of the ad valorem real estate taxes now levied, assessed or imposed on real
estate as such, there shall be levied, assessed or imposed
7
23
a tax ("Alternative Tax") on the rents received from such real estate, or a
license fee measured by rents, a so-called "value-added tax" or other tax in
lieu or fee resulting from revision of the present real estate tax structure,
then the Alternative Tax shall thereafter be included as Real Estate Taxes.
(c) Right to Contest Assessments. Landlord and Tenant
agree to consult with each other and to keep each other advised concerning the
assessment and/or tax rate for any Real Estate Taxes and any controversy or
contest pertaining to any Real Estate Tax. Tenant shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to protest or appeal any such assessment and/or tax rate and to
petition for a refund or rebate of the whole or part of any Real Estate Taxes
and to carry on any proper proceedings, legal or otherwise, in connection
therewith; provided, however, (i) Tenant shall pay the amounts under protest or
appeal to the Escrow Agent and, to the extent that such Real Estate Taxes are
due to be paid to the applicable Authorities prior to final resolution of such
protest or appeal, the Escrow Agent shall pay the applicable taxes, but with
notice of protest if requested by Tenant; (ii) Tenant shall comply with all
laws, orders, rules and regulations respecting such contest; and (iii) give
Landlord prior written notice of Tenant's intent to contest the amount or
validity and provide Landlord will copies of any notices filed or documents
submitted with regard to any such proceeding. If required by law, Tenant shall
have the right to take such action in the name of Landlord, and Landlord shall
cooperate with Tenant to the extent Tenant may reasonably require; provided,
however, Tenant shall indemnify and save Landlord harmless from and against all
loss, cost, damage and expense as a result thereof. As to Real Estate Taxes
attributable to periods prior to the Rent Commencement Date, to the last year of
the Term (after Tenant has waived or no longer has any Renewal Option), or upon
an Event of Default, Landlord shall have a right to initiate and prosecute such
proceedings if Tenant fails to initiate or prosecute such proceedings, or
participate in such proceedings if Tenant initiates and prosecutes such
proceedings. Landlord will furnish Tenant, on request, with prior tax receipts,
bills or other data and execute any instruments, which Tenant may deem necessary
or proper for the purpose of said protest or review, and such authorization or
allegations as may be necessary therefor. The cost and expense of any such
proceeding instituted by Tenant shall be borne by Tenant and in the event Tenant
shall obtain an abatement, reduction or refund, Tenant shall be entitled to the
entire amount thereof (except to the extent any portion thereof represents Real
Estate Taxes paid by Landlord respecting periods before the Rent Commencement
Date or after the expiration of the Term), and if any sums to which Tenant is
entitled are paid by the taxing authority to Landlord, Landlord will promptly
pay the same to Tenant. If any proceedings shall be instituted by Landlord, the
entire cost and expense of any such proceeding shall be borne by Landlord, but
in the event Landlord shall obtain an abatement, reduction or refund, there
shall be first deducted from any abatement, reduction or refund, and prior to
any adjustment with Tenant, the entire amount of Landlord's cost including
reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in connection therewith. In any tax period
for which an abatement, reduction or refund shall be obtained, whether by
Landlord or Tenant, an appropriate adjustment or refund shall be made by
Landlord to Tenant in the amount due from or paid by Tenant on account of Real
Estate Taxes.
(d) Items Excluded. Nothing herein contained shall
require Tenant to pay any share of municipal, state, federal income, gross
receipts or excess profits taxes assessed against Landlord, or municipal, state
or federal capital levy, estate, succession,
8
24
inheritance or transfer taxes of Landlord, or corporation franchise taxes
imposed upon any corporate owner of the fee of the Leased Premises, or any tax
of any kind whatsoever which may be imposed on Landlord or the rents payable
except the ad valorem Real Estate Taxes described in this Paragraph 6, the
Alternative Tax described in subparagraph (b) above or amounts to be paid in
accordance with Paragraph 21.
(e) Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay, before
delinquency, all taxes and assessments levied against, or on account of, all
fixtures, equipment and personal property located in or upon the Leased
Premises, even if such taxes do not becomes a lien against Landlord's interest
in the Leased Premises.
7. Plans and Specifications.
(a) Building; Preliminary Drawings. The Building will be a
first class suburban general purpose office building of approximately 130,000
gross square feet and 3 stories and a parking structure, with a footprint
substantially as shown on the final working drawings and specifications for
Landlord's Work listed on EXHIBIT "D" attached (the "Final Plans and
Specifications"), and otherwise substantially in accordance with the Final Plans
and Specifications. The Final Plans and Specifications have been approved by
Landlord and Tenant.
(b) Architect, Final Plans and Specifications.
(1) The Final Plans and Specifications have been
prepared by Landlord's architect (the "Landlord's Architect"). To the extent
that the Final Plans and Specifications are incomplete or lack details, Landlord
shall develop additional plans and specifications, based on the scope of the
project as is described in the Final Plans and Specifications (the "Scope"),
subject to the approval of Tenant. Landlord shall give prior written notice to
Tenant (by notice to Tenant's construction representative, Xxxxx Xxxx and Xxx
XxXxxxxx, which shall not be required to be made in accordance with Paragraph
42) of such additional plans and specifications; Tenant shall be deemed to
approve such changes unless Tenant delivers to Landlord comments objecting to
such additional plans and specifications within 5 business days following
receipt by Tenant's construction representatives. Tenant shall have the right to
request changes in the additional plans and specifications. If Landlord and
Tenant agree that such changes are logically within the Scope, Landlord shall
make such changes at Landlord's sole cost and expense. If Landlord and Tenant
agree that such changes are logically outside the Scope, Landlord shall make
such changes but the costs of such changes shall be borne by Tenant. If Landlord
and Tenant dispute whether such changes are logically within the Scope, Landlord
shall make and pay for such changes in aggregate up to $60,000.00 and costs in
excess of $60,000.00 shall be borne by Tenant (or settled by arbitration in
accordance with Paragraph 7(d)). If changes to the additional plans and
specifications requested by Tenant (other than changes necessary to make the
additional plans and specifications complete) cause delay in completion of
Landlord's Work (beyond the time otherwise required for completion of the
additional plans and specifications as proposed by Landlord), such delay shall
be deemed a Tenant Delay. To the extent that the aggregate cost of all such
changes to the additional plans and specifications requested by Tenant are less
than $60,000.00, the difference may be used first as a credit
9
25
against the costs of changes in the Final Plans and Specifications requested by
Tenant under Paragraph 7(b)(ii) below and, if there is any balance remaining,
second to be added to Landlord's Contribution and disbursed to Tenant in
accordance with Paragraph 13.
(ii) Landlord shall have the right to request or
approve changes in the Final Plans and Specifications based on conditions
discovered on-site and arising in construction of Landlord's Work and to request
or approve changes involving substitution of materials if required as a result
of such conditions or the non-availability of materials specified in the Final
Plans and Specifications, subject to the approval of Tenant in accordance with
the following provisions. Landlord shall give prior written notice (by notice to
Tenant's construction representative, Xxxxx Xxxx and Xxx XxXxxxxx, which shall
not be required to be made in accordance with Paragraph 42) of such changes to
Tenant; to the extent prior written notice is not practicable, Tenant shall be
informed of such changes orally (but supplemented or confirmed by fax to both
such representatives at (000) 000-0000), and thereafter be provided with written
description of such changes within 48 hours. Tenant shall be deemed to approved
such changes unless Tenant delivers to Landlord comments objecting to such
changes (x) within 16 business hours for changes involving substitution of
materials, and (y) within 8 business hours as to all other changes. Tenant shall
have the right to approve or reasonably object to such changes in the Final
Plans and Specifications for: (1) consistency with Tenant's Plans and
Specifications; (2) compliance with applicable laws and with the Declaration;
(3) matters which Tenant reasonably believes would increase Tenant's maintenance
costs over the Term; (4) consistency with the workmanship and materials
specified in Tenant's Plans and Specifications; and (5) quality, appearance and
cost of such changes. In all other respects, the Final Plans and Specifications
shall be under the control of Landlord and the Landlord's Architect. If Tenant
requests changes in the Final Plans and Specifications (other than as provided
in Paragraph 7(b)(i) above with respect to the additional plans and
specifications, which changes are governed thereby), such changes shall be
subject to the approval of Landlord and Tenant shall pay the cost of all such
changes (to the extent that the changes increase the cost of completing the
portion of Landlord's Work, after taking into account cost savings arising from
such changes) and all delays caused by such changes shall be deemed Tenant
Delay.
(c) Plan Submission. Tenant's architect ("Tenant's Architect")
shall prepare plans and specifications for Tenant's Work, which shall be subject
to approval by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. Landlord's approval of the plans and specifications and changes thereto
shall be determined on the basis of three respects only: (i) compliance with
applicable laws and with the Declaration; and (ii) matters which Landlord
reasonably believes would increase Landlord's structural maintenance costs over
the Term and consistency with the mechanical, electrical and other systems in
Landlord's Work; and (iii) consistency with the workmanship and materials
specified in the Final Plans and Specifications. In all other respects, Tenant's
Plans and Specifications shall be under the control of Tenant and Tenant's
Architect. Upon approval, the plans and specifications shall be deemed "Tenant's
Plans and Specifications" and shall be listed on EXHIBIT "E" , to be attached
following such approval, which is anticipated to occur following the execution
hereof. Tenant shall have the right to request or approve changes in the
Tenant's Plans and Specifications based on conditions discovered on-site and
arising in construction of Tenant's Work, changes as are necessary or advisable
in order to suit the
10
26
Leased Premises for its intended operation as Tenant's offices, or for any other
reasons in Tenant's discretion; such changes shall be subject to approval by
Landlord (in accordance with the standards set forth above). Landlord shall be
deemed to approved such changes unless Landlord delivers to Tenant comments
objecting to such changes (i) within 8 business hours for changes involving
substitution of materials, and (ii) within 4 business hours as to all other
changes.
(d) Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute between
Landlord and Tenant as to any plan, the issue will be referred initially to the
Landlord's Architect, who shall advise the parties as to the issue and attempt
to resolve the dispute. If the parties shall not have reached agreement within 2
days after the matter shall have been referred to the Architect, then the
dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration conducted in San Diego,
California by and under the Construction Industry Rules of the American
Arbitration Association and the conclusion of the arbitrator(s) will be final,
conclusive and binding on the parties.
(e) Replacement Architect. Landlord may from time to time
replace Landlord's Architect with another architect duly licensed in California
and qualified to design a building and related improvements comparable to those
intended hereunder, provided that the replacement of such Landlord's Architect
shall be subject to the prior approval of any Mortgagee, if required under the
applicable loan documents. Tenant may from time to time replace Tenant's
Architect with another architect duly licensed in California and qualified to
design a building and related improvements comparable to those intended
hereunder, provided that the replacement of such Tenant's Architect shall be
subject to the prior approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Completion" of Landlord's Work shall mean there has been substantial completion
of all of Landlord's Work in accordance with the Final Plans and Specifications
as determined by Landlord's Architect in accordance with normal architectural
tolerances and standards, except for Punchlist Items. "Completion Date" shall

Landlord's Punchlist as soon as reasonably practicable following the Completion
Date.
10. Landlord's Construction Warranties. Landlord shall obtain
customary construction warranties under its construction contracts for all
Landlord's Work providing for completion in accordance with the Final Plans and
Specifications, free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one

or advisable in order to suit the Leased Premises for its intended operation as
Tenant's offices, provided that copies of any changes shall be delivered to
Landlord for Landlord's information and such

statement, not to exceed in the aggregate the amount of Landlord's Contribution.
Such payment shall be by delivery to Tenant of Landlord's checks or wire

theretofore paid to Tenant on account of Landlord's Contribution pursuant to
subparagraph (a) above, and the entire amount of Landlord's Contribution.
(c) If Landlord fails to pay Landlord's Contribution
in accordance with the foregoing provisions, Tenant's remedy shall be to offset
such unpaid amounts, together with interest thereon at the rate of twelve
percent (12%) per annum against the first Rent to be paid by Tenant under this
Lease upon not less than ten (10) days prior notice of Tenant's election to
withhold to Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee; provided, however, that if
Landlord or the Mortgagee disputes, by notice to Tenant within such ten (10) day
period, that such amounts are owed by Landlord, Tenant shall have no right to

Uses or Specially Approved Uses under Zoning and Building Laws and the
Declaration.
18. Hazardous Materials.
(a) Definitions. "Hazardous Materials" shall mean any
chemical, material, substance or waste (i) exposure to which is prohibited,
limited or regulated by any federal, state, county, regional or local authority,
or other governmental authority of any nature, that has jurisdiction over the
Leased Premises or (ii) which, even if not so regulated, may or could pose a
hazard to the health or safety of the occupants of the Leased Premises (herein
collectively "Hazardous Materials"). As herein used Hazardous Materials shall
include petroleum, crude oil (any fraction thereof), natural gas, natural gas
liquids, and those substances defined as "hazardous substances," "hazardous
materials," "hazardous wastes," or other similar designations in the
Comprehensive Environmental
14

Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section
9601 et seq., the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901
et seq., the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C. Section 1801 et
seq. and any other governmental statutes, laws, ordinances, rules, regulations,
and precautions.
(b) Tenant's Warranty and Covenants. Tenant shall
strictly comply with all statutes, laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and
precautions now or hereafter mandated or advised by any federal, state, local or
other governmental agency with respect to the use, generation, storage, or
disposal of Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not cause, or allow any one else
to cause, any Hazardous Materials to be used, generated, stored, or disposed of
on or about the Leased Premises (other than de minimis amounts used in
construction or normal office building operations consistent with applicable
industry standards and applicable laws) without the prior written consent of
Landlord, which consent may be withheld in the reasonable discretion of
Landlord. Tenant's indemnification of Landlord pursuant to this Lease shall
extend to all liability, including all foreseeable and unforeseeable
consequential damages, directly or indirectly arising out of the use,
generation, storage, or disposal of Hazardous Materials by Tenant or any person
claiming under Tenant, including, without limitation, the cost of any required
or necessary repair, cleanup, or detoxification and the preparation of any
closure or other required plans, whether such action is required or necessary
prior to or following the termination of this Lease, to the full extent that
such action is attributable, directly or indirectly, to the use, generation,
storage, or disposal of Hazardous Materials by Tenant, its agents, employees,
contractors, or invitees, or any person claiming under Tenant. Neither the
written consent by Landlord to the use, generation, storage, or disposal of
Hazardous Materials nor the strict compliance by Tenant with all statutes, laws,
ordinances, rules, regulations, and precautions pertaining to Hazardous
Materials shall excuse Tenant from Tenant's obligation of indemnification. In
addition to Landlord's indemnification rights, in the event Tenant is in breach
of the covenants herein, Landlord may, in its sole discretion, (i) declare an
Event of Default after notice and opportunity to cure in accordance with
Paragraph 43 and/or (ii) cause the Leased Premises to be free from the Hazardous
Material and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord to effect the foregoing
shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder and shall immediately be due and
payable from Tenant (together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from
the date costs or expenses are incurred by Landlord). The representations and
obligations of Tenant under this Paragraph shall survive, notwithstanding the
termination or expiration of this Lease.
19. Tenant's Signs. Tenant shall have the right, at its sole
cost and expense, to post, paint, construct, attach and maintain the signage set
forth on Tenant's Plans and Specifications, to the extent permitted by law and
the Declaration ("Tenant's Signage"). Tenant may remove any or all of its signs
at or prior to the Expiration Date or as soon thereafter as is reasonably
practical; provided Tenant repairs any damage caused by such removal. Tenant
shall have the right to alter Tenant's Signage, subject to applicable law and
the Declaration.
20. Intentionally Omitted.
21. Utilities.
15
31
(a) Tenant to Pay Charges for Utilities. From and
after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant agrees to pay, as Additional Rent, all
charges and deposits for water, gas, electricity, sanitary sewer, telephone and
other utility services (the "Utilities") for the Leased Premises during the
Term.
(b) Tenant Not Responsible for Assessments for
Utility Improvements. In no event shall Tenant pay, and Landlord shall be
responsible for, assessments for public improvements relating to the
construction, installation or improvement of any utility system in accordance
with the Final Plans and Specifications, if such assessment exists on the date
hereof or is imposed as a condition for the issuance of the Permits. Tenant
shall pay the installments coming due during the Term (prorated on a per diem
basis with Landlord for periods overlapping the beginning or end of the Term),
of any assessment against the Leased Premises other than those described in the
preceding sentence (and for such purpose, Tenant shall be entitled to elect to
pay such assessments over the longest permitted period); provided, however, that
if such assessments pertain to additional utility improvements requested by
Tenant, Tenant shall pay for the full cost of such assessments prior to the
expiration of the Term (without proration with Landlord).
22. Maintenance and Repair.
(a) Tenant's Obligations. The Minimum Rent set forth
in Paragraph 4 is set on the assumption that Landlord will not have to pay any
expenses or incur any liabilities of any kind in any way relating to, or in
connection with, the Leased Premises during the Term from and after the Rent
Commencement Date, except as expressly assumed by Landlord elsewhere in this
Lease. Accordingly, Tenant will promptly pay all costs of every kind and
description relating to or arising out of the Leased Premises during the Term
from and after the Rent Commencement Date, except as expressly assumed by
Landlord elsewhere in this Lease. From and after the Rent Commencement Date,
Tenant agrees at its sole cost and expense, to provide maintenance and make all
repairs and replacements to the Leased Premises necessary to maintain it in good
order, condition and repair consistent with the continued operation of a
first-class suburban general purpose office building, reasonable wear and tear
excepted, and to maintain the Leased Premises in a clean and sanitary condition
throughout the Term; except that,
(i) repairs or replacements required as a
result of fire or other casualty covered by the Tenant's Property Insurance
shall be governed by the provisions of Paragraph 36, whether or not caused by
the acts or negligence of Tenant, its agents or employees; and
(ii) Tenant shall not be obligated to make
any Structural Repairs, as defined in subparagraph (b) below, unless the need
therefor results from the negligence of Tenant, its agents or employees, or to
the extent provided in Paragraph 36.
At Tenant's expense, Tenant shall enter into and keep in effect during the Term
(by renewing or entering into new contracts) maintenance contracts for repair
and maintenance of the systems for HVAC, elevator, electrical, elevator, life
safety and sprinklers (both landscaping and fire prevention), which contracts
shall include periodic maintenance in accordance
16
32
applicable industry standards consistent with warranty requirements; Tenant
shall provide copies of such contract(s) and evidence of payment to Landlord
upon request. Tenant's building engineers or other person in charge of
maintenance of the building shall maintain a maintenance/complaint log, keeping
track of any problems or complaints and service calls for Landlord's
Improvements. Landlord shall assign to Tenant all assignable warranties with
respect to Landlord's Work, including warranties with respect to the Building
Fixtures and Equipment, and, to the extent not assignable, Landlord shall
cooperate with Tenant in enforcing the terms and provisions of applicable
warranties upon request of Tenant, provided that Landlord shall bear all costs
of legal actions if Landlord elects to bring a legal action to enforce any such
warranties.
(b) Landlord's Obligations. Landlord agrees to make
all repairs and replacements which may be necessary to the structural support
system of the roof, foundation piers and stem walls, and structural elements of
exterior walls (including structural elements of curtain walls) and structural
elements of the parking structure (collectively such elements are referred to as
"Structure" and such repairs or replacement are "Structural Repairs") unless the
need therefore results from the negligence of Tenant, its agents or employees.
To the extent any repairs, replacements, renewals and alterations arise out of,
or are in any way caused by fire or other casualty, responsibility therefor is
governed by Paragraph 36 below. Tenant shall notify Landlord as soon as
reasonably practicable following discovery by Tenant or its maintenance
contractor of the existence of any condition which is believed to require
Structural Repairs. If Tenant is deprived of the use of any portion of the
usable space in the Building for more than two (2) consecutive business days
following notice to Landlord because of Landlord's making of any Structural
Repairs under the provisions of this Lease or because of Landlord's failure to
make said Structural Repairs, then, in addition to such other rights and
remedies as Tenant is expressly accorded under the terms of Paragraph 45 of this
Lease if applicable under such paragraph, the Minimum Rent and any Additional
Rent payable hereunder shall xxxxx beginning at the end of such two (2) business
day period and ending when the respective portion is made usable. If only a
portion of the space in the Leased Premises is made unusable, such abatement
shall be based on the percentage that such unusable space constitutes of the
total space in the Building. Tenant's notice with respect to such condition
shall expressly reference its intention to xxxxx rent and shall include a
description of the nature of such deprivation and the space affected; if
Landlord disputes Tenant's right to xxxxx rent hereunder, Tenant shall have no
right to withhold the payment of Rent until such dispute is settled by agreement
of the parties or arbitration in accordance with Paragraph 59.
23. Alterations.
(a) Tenant's Right to Make Alterations. Tenant, at
its own cost and expense, shall have the right to make such alterations,
restorations, replacements, improvements and installations ("Alterations") in,
of or to the Leased Premises, interior or exterior, structural or
non-structural, as Tenant deems necessary or desirable, but no Alterations shall
(i) increase the exterior dimensions of the Building, or (ii) materially reduce
the value of the Leased Premises or materially and adversely affect the
building systems servicing the Building or Structure. Tenant's Work shall not be
deemed Alterations, which shall be governed by the terms of Paragraph 14. In the
event that Tenant removes any
17
33
portion of Landlord's Improvements, Tenant shall replace such with improvements
or equipment of equal or greater value and quality of materials and
construction, and such replacements shall be deemed the property of Landlord.
The term "Alterations" shall not include any item which is a Tenant Fixture (as
defined in subparagraph 24(a), below). All exterior or Structure alterations to
the Building and Alterations that require or result in a change in the
capacities with respect to heating, air conditioning and ventilation systems
("HVAC"), plumbing systems or electrical systems shall require Landlord's prior
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All
Alterations with respect to installation of Tenant Fixtures on the roof or that
require any Alteration to the roof shall be subject to the provisions of
Paragraph 23(f).
(b) Requirements for Alterations. Tenant, in making
any Alterations, shall comply with all applicable laws, orders and regulations
of federal, state, county and municipal authorities, and with any direction
given by a public officer pursuant to law and with all regulations of any board
of fire underwriters having jurisdiction and with the Declaration. Tenant shall
obtain or cause to be obtained all building permits, licenses, temporary and
permanent certificates of occupancy and other governmental approvals which may
be required in connection with the making of Alterations. Landlord shall
cooperate with Tenant in the obtaining thereof and shall execute any documents
required in furtherance of such purpose. Tenant shall provide copies of proposed
plans prepared by an engineer or architect licensed in the State of California,
selected by Tenant, who may be an employee of Tenant, for all Alterations
requiring Landlord's prior consent and, following completion of such
Alterations, shall provide copies of and as-built plans; in addition, not less
than annually, Tenant shall provide Landlord with as-built plans reflecting all
Alterations completed by Tenant as of such date, except for cosmetic changes
(including repainting, recarpeting and signage). No Alteration shall injure the
safety of the Structure of the Building or diminish its value and all
Alterations shall be done in a good and workerlike manner. All Alterations
(other than cosmetic changes as described above or changes costing less than
$50,000.00 in the aggregate as to changes being completed as a project) shall be
conducted with plans prepared by an architect or engineer licensed in the State
of California, selected by Tenant, who may be an employee of Tenant and whose
scope of engagement shall be determined by Tenant within its business judgment.
The work of all Alterations shall be prosecuted with reasonable dispatch,
subject to Unavoidable Delays. Tenant shall procure or shall cause the
contractor for the work to procure insurance in accordance with Sections 32 and
33, including worker's compensation insurance, covering all persons employed in
connection with the work, before any work is begun.
(c) Removal of Alterations. Any Alterations made by
Tenant to the Leased Premises, except for replacement of any portion of
Landlord's Work or the Building Fixtures and Equipment and except for standard
suburban office tenant alterations completed in accordance with Paragraph 23(b)
above, shall, at the option of Landlord, either remain as part of the Leased
Premises or be removed therefrom at the expense of Tenant prior to the end of
the Term; provided, however, that Tenant shall have the right, by notice to
Landlord at the time consent is requested for Alterations (if applicable) or
prior to commencement of Alterations (as to Alterations for which consent is not
required), to request that Landlord acknowledge Landlord's election as to the
respective Alterations at such time, in which event such election shall govern.
Further, Landlord and Tenant agree that the Tenant Work shall
18
34
remain part of the Leased Premises at the end of the Term or upon earlier
termination. In the event of any such removal, Tenant shall repair any damage to
the Leased Premises caused by such removal (including the patching of holes in
ceilings, floors, floor coverings and walls resulting from the removal of
Alterations); however, Tenant shall not be obligated to restore the Leased
Premises to its original condition or to remove standard suburban office tenant
improvements.
(d) Insurance Proceeds for Alterations. Insurance
with regard to any Alterations shall be governed by the terms of Paragraph 36.
(e) Mechanics Liens.
(i) Satisfaction of Claims. In connection
with the construction of Tenant's Work and any Alterations, Tenant shall cause
the payment of all proper and valid invoices and charges of all contractors,
subcontractors, suppliers, materialmen and similar parties who furnish services
or materials in connection with the construction process. In the event, in
connection with the construction of Tenant's Work and any Alterations, any party
ever records a mechanic's lien to enforce any claim for services or materials
alleged to have been provided in connection with the Leased Premises, Tenant
shall cause the same to be released of record within thirty (30) days after the
recordation thereof, and Tenant shall be liable to satisfy and cause a discharge
of any such mechanic's lien claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall
have the right to contest any such mechanic's lien claim, provided that Tenant
conducts such contest in a timely manner and with due diligence, and that Tenant
provides Landlord with such security in connection therewith as Landlord may
reasonably require. In the event Tenant loses any such contest, with all further
rights of appeal having expired, Tenant shall satisfy the mechanic's lien claim
in full prior to any foreclosure sale or other disposition of the Leased
Premises in order to satisfy the claim.
(ii) Posting. Prior to commencement of
construction of the Tenant Work and thereafter prior to commencing any
Alterations, if Landlord gives written notice requesting same, Tenant shall
deliver notices to all contractors and subcontractors and post notices in
accordance with applicable law, in locations that will be visible by parties
performing any work, which notices shall state that Landlord is not responsible
for the payment of such work and setting forth such other information as may be
reasonably required pursuant to such statutory provisions.
(f) Rooftop Rights. Tenant shall have the exclusive
use of the rooftop of the Building, which Tenant may use for communications or
related purposes or for the purpose of providing mechanical or other services to
the Building consistent with such services commonly located in rooftop
facilities of suburban office Buildings. Tenant's use of the rooftop will be
subject to all applicable governmental requirements and the Declaration, and to
the provisions of subparagraph 23(b). Tenant shall not make any use of the
rooftop which would void or impair any warranty of the roof or of any other
component of the Building. Tenant will not damage the roof or any other
component of the Buildings in connection with the installation, maintenance or
use of the rooftop, and should any such damage occur Tenant will promptly
correct such damage at Tenant's sole cost and expense. At the expiration of the
Term, Tenant will remove at its expense all facilities installed by
19
35
Tenant on the rooftop and all connecting lines (to the extent such lines are
within utility chases constructed by Landlord) and will repair any damage
resulting from such removal. Tenant shall receive no abatement of Rent for any
period during which Tenant is prevented for any reason from using the rooftop
facilities. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and save Landlord, its agents and
employees harmless of and from all liability, loss, damage, costs or expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, on account of any claims of any nature
whatsoever, including work performed, materials or supplies furnished, damage to
the property, injury to persons or electronic interference caused by Tenant's
use of the rooftop.
24. Tenant's Trade Fixtures.
(a) Installation of Trade Fixtures. Tenant shall have
the right, from time to time, throughout the Term of the Lease to install within
the Leased Premises and to attach thereto any trade fixtures, equipment or other
property ("Tenant Fixtures") whether owned by Tenant or by any subtenant,
assignee, licensee or concessionaire of Tenant or leased by Tenant from another
party ("Equipment Lessor"), deemed necessary by Tenant for the operation of its
business within the Leased Premises. All Tenant Fixtures installed in or
attached to the Leased Premises by Tenant shall remain the property of Tenant,
or of any subtenant, assignee, licensee or concessionaire of Tenant, or of any
Equipment Lessor; provided, however, that fixtures or equipment that are in
replacement of any Landlord's Improvements shall not be deemed Tenant Fixtures
but shall be deemed the property of Landlord and shall not be leased from
another party. Tenant shall have the right from time to time during the Term of
this Lease or at the expiration thereof either to leave any Tenant Fixtures
which it caused to be attached to or located on the Leased Premises or to remove
such Tenant Fixtures. In the event of such removal, Tenant agrees at its own
cost and expense to repair any damage caused to the Leased Premises by such
removal (including the patching of holes in ceilings, floors, floor coverings
and walls resulting from such removal and the capping or otherwise sealing
utility lines in accordance with applicable codes in such fashion that they can
be reconnected to replacement equipment and fixtures, in accordance with
industry standards); however, Tenant shall not be obligated to restore the
Leased Premises to its original condition. Any Tenant Fixtures so left by Tenant
at the end of the Term shall be deemed abandoned and become the property of the
Landlord without payment or offset.
(b) Waiver of Liens in Fixtures. In no event
(including a default under this Lease) shall Landlord have any statutory or
express contractual liens or lien rights in the Tenant Fixtures and Landlord
agrees to execute and deliver to Tenant and Equipment Lessor, within ten (10)
days after request therefor, any document (subject to Landlord's reasonable
approval) required by Tenant or Equipment Lessor in order to evidence the
foregoing; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent Landlord from
obtaining a judgment lien against Tenant's property, including Tenant's interest
in Tenant Fixtures, following an Event of Default.
25. Surrender of Leased Premises. Tenant agrees that upon the
expiration of the Term, or upon the sooner termination of this Lease,
possession of the Leased Premises shall be surrendered to Landlord in the same
condition and repair as Tenant is required to maintain the Leased Premises and
Landlord's Improvements during the Term of this Lease,
20
36
ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty excepted (subject to
the provisions of Paragraphs 24 and 33) and shall surrender all keys to the
Building, and every part thereof, to Landlord and all fixtures necessary to the
operation of the Building as a building, including, without limitation, all
heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment and machinery, pipes, ducts,
compressors, hardwood floors, wall-to-wall carpeting, and installed landscaping
equipment. At the time of surrender, Tenant shall inform Landlord of all
combinations on locks, safes and vaults, if any, in the Building and the Leased
Premises. Tenant's obligation to observe or perform this covenant shall survive
the expiration or termination of the Term.
26. Property in the Leased Premises. In no event whatsoever
shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage to personal property
which may at any time be in the Leased Premises. Landlord shall not be
responsible or liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting to Tenant or
its property from water, gas, steam, fire, or the bursting, stoppage or leaking
of sewer pipes, or from the heating or plumbing fixtures, or from electric
wires, or from gas or odors, or from roof leaks, or caused in any manner
whatsoever.
27. Landlord's Access to Leased Premises. Tenant shall permit
Landlord, upon at least one (1) business day's prior notice (and with only such
notice, if any, as may be reasonable in case of emergency), to enter upon the
Leased Premises during business hours or such other times as Tenant shall
reasonably determine (or at any time in case of emergency).
(a) to make repairs, changes, replacements and
restorations to the Leased Premises which are required hereunder to be made by
Landlord;
(b) during the Lease Year preceding the Expiration
Date (after Tenant has waived or no longer has any Renewal Option) or following
an Event of Default, to exhibit the Leased Premises to prospective tenants,
provided that Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of
business therein; and
(c) to inspect the Leased Premises or to exhibit the
Leased Premises to prospective owners or lenders or their representatives.
28. Zoning, Land Use Regulations, Utilities and Compliance
with Laws, Ordinances, and Requirements of Public Authorities.
(a) Zoning and Building Laws. Landlord has provided
Tenant with a copy of a Final Decision of the Zoning Administrator dated April
18, 1997, evidencing the existing zoning applicable to the Leased Premises.
Prior to the execution hereof, Tenant shall have had the right to verify that
the applicable building, zoning, subdivision or other land use and planning
codes, statutes, ordinances and regulations ("Zoning and Building Laws") and the
Declaration permit the use of the Leased Premises for the operation of a general
purpose office building, including, without limitation, an office building for
the origination, processing and servicing of mortgage loans and the parking of
motor vehicles in connection therewith.
21
37
(b) Permits; Compliance with Governmental
Requirements.
(i) Landlord, at its sole cost and expense,
shall obtain or cause to be obtained prior to the commencement of construction
hereunder, all permits, licenses, and other approvals ("Permits"), with all
applicable appeal periods having expired and in final, irrevocable and
uncontestable form, necessary and required by all federal, state, and municipal
governments, courts, departments, commissions, boards, any architectural control
or similar body whose approval is required pursuant to the Declaration (the
"Authorities"), for the lawful construction of Landlord's Work (other than
certificates of occupancy or similar permits which may only issue upon
completion of construction). To the extent that Permits for construction of
Landlord's Work also require simultaneous submission or approval of some or all
Permits for Tenant's Work (as referred to in subparagraph (ii) below), Tenant
shall cooperate with Landlord in submitting plans and applications for and
obtaining such Permits in accordance with Landlord's schedule for completion of
Landlord's Work.
(ii) To the extent not included in the
Permits obtained under Paragraph 28(b)(i), Tenant, at its sole cost and expense,
shall obtain or cause to be obtained prior to the commencement of construction
of Tenant's Work hereunder, all Permits, with all applicable appeal periods
having expired and in final, irrevocable and uncontestable form, necessary and
required by all Authorities, for the lawful construction of Tenant's Work (other
than certificates of occupancy or similar permits which may only issue upon
completion of construction).
(iii) Subject to Tenant's right to contest
by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith, throughout the
term of this Lease, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly remove
any violation and shall promptly comply with all requirements of all
Authorities, foreseen or unforeseen, ordinary as well as extraordinary, which
may be applicable to the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, or to the use or
manner of use of the Leased Premises, or any part thereof (collectively, the
"Requirements"); except that Landlord shall be responsible for such removal and
compliance to the extent the same are attributable to original construction
defects in workmanship or materials in Landlord's Work, relate to or require
work constituting structural maintenance or alterations for which Landlord is
responsible hereunder, or result from the acts or omissions of Landlord, its
agents or employees or from Landlord's failure to perform any of its other
obligations under this Lease.
(c) Utility Services. Landlord shall complete lines,
facilities and services for Utilities (as defined in subparagraph 21(a), above)
(including, without limitation, storm sewer), to the extent provided in the
Final Plans and Specifications. Landlord shall also grant such easements and
licenses on the Leased Premises as Tenant may reasonably request in order to
provide additional Utilities to the Leased Premises, which easements and
licenses shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall bear all costs of
drafting, preparing and recording the necessary easement instruments (excluding
Landlord's costs of review). Landlord shall have no responsibility for the
interruption or failure to provide Utilities to the Leased Premises, but
Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in the event that
22
38
Tenant requests Landlord's assistance in obtaining the resumption of Utilities
following an interruption in service.
29. Assignment and Subletting.
(a) Assignment.
(i) Except as provided in Paragraph 29(c),
Tenant shall not assign or transfer this Lease, or any interest in this Lease
without, in each case, first obtaining the prior consent of the Landlord, which
consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion.
(ii) If Tenant attempts to make any
assignment without the requisite consent of the Landlord (to the extent required
under paragraph (a)(i) above), such assignment shall be void and such occurrence
shall be deemed an Event of Default. Notwithstanding any assignment, Tenant
shall remain primarily liable for the full performance of the terms,
conditions and obligations under this Lease.
(b) Subletting.
(i) Tenant shall have the right to sublet
all or any portion or portions of the Leased Premises without Landlord's consent
subject to the following provisions. Tenant shall give Landlord notice of any

prior written notice of any subletting of the entirety or substantially all of
the Premises and (B) notice of any other subleases from time to time upon

deliver notice of a subletting in accordance with Paragraph (b)(i) above, there
shall be deemed an Event of Default if Tenant thereafter fails to cure such
breach by delivery of the required notice within five (5) days of receipt of
notice from Landlord. Any consent by Landlord to any assignment of this Lease
or the occurrence of any sublease of the Leased Premises without the required
notice, if any, shall not constitute a waiver by the Landlord of the provisions
of this Paragraph as to subsequent transactions of the same or similar nature.
Notwithstanding any sublease authorized under the provisions of this Paragraph
29(b), Tenant shall remain primarily liable for the full performance of the
terms, conditions and obligations under this Lease.
(c) Permitted Assignment/Subletting. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained hereinabove, Tenant shall have the right,
without obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, to assign or sublease all or
any portion or portions of the Leased Premises to the following parties on the
following conditions:
23
39

("Advanta Holding"), or subsidiary or affiliate of Tenant, Advanta
Corp. or Advanta Holding, provided Tenant, Advanta Corp. or Advanta
Holding owns a controlling interest in such affiliate or subsidiary;
2. Any corporation into which Tenant may be merged or
consolidated or which purchases all or substantially all of the assets
or stock of Tenant;
and provided that:

substantially all of the Leased Premises shall assume and be bound by
all obligations of Tenant for payment of all amounts of rental and
other sums and the performance of all covenants required by Tenant
pursuant to this Agreement; and
(B) Any such subtenant and/or assignee intends, and
is required by the terms of such assignment or sublease, to operate the
Leased Premises in accordance with the usage restrictions of this
Lease.
Tenant shall give Landlord notice of any assignment or subletting under this
Paragraph 29(c) in accordance with the following: (i) Tenant shall give Landlord
not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of any subletting of the

and (ii) from time to time upon request from Landlord Tenant shall notify
Landlord with respect to all other subleases. Notice to Landlord under (i) and
(ii) shall include the name of the assignee/subtenant, the uses to be permitted
under the sublease (which uses must be permitted under the terms of Paragraph
17), copies of the documents evidencing such transaction, and such evidence as
Landlord may reasonably require to establish that such transaction falls within
the terms and provisions of this Paragraph 29(c); in addition, notice under (i)
above shall include information on the financial capabilities of the assignee/
subtenant. If Tenant breaches its obligation to deliver notice of a subletting
or assignment in accordance with (i) or (ii) above, there shall be deemed an

notice within five (5) days after notice from Landlord. In all events, Tenant
shall remain primarily liable for the full performance of the terms, conditions
and obligations under this Lease notwithstanding any subletting or assignment
permitted under this Paragraph 29(c).

conditions, including rent (except that the Minimum Rent shall be an amount
equal to 150% of the monthly payment of Minimum Rent applicable immediately
prior to such holdover period), as those herein specified, except only as to the
term of this Lease.
24
40
31. Indemnification of Landlord and Tenant.
(a) Tenant's Indemnification of Landlord. Tenant covenants and
agrees that it will protect, defend, save and keep Landlord harmless and

and agrees that, from and after the commencement of the Initial Term until the

naming Tenant, Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee as additional insureds.
(b) Landlord to Maintain Liability Insurance.
(i) Landlord, at all times during the Initial Term
and any Renewal Periods, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain commercial
general public liability insurance ("Landlord's Liability Insurance") written on

(a) Landlord to Maintain Builders Risk Insurance. Landlord, at
all times until Substantial Completion of Landlord's Work, at its sole cost and
expense, shall maintain Completed Value Form "All Physical Loss" Builder's Risk
Coverage on Landlord's Work ("Landlord's Fire Insurance") in a nonreporting
form, including an Occupancy endorsement, against loss by fire, lightning, flood
and earthquake, and the perils of the all risk endorsement covering the Leased
Premises, with business income coverage equal to not less than one year's
Minimum Rent hereunder and with coinsurance waived. The policies effecting
Landlord's Fire Insurance shall contain the following endorsements:
(i) An endorsement providing for sixty (60) thirty
notice of cancellation of insurance or of decrease in insurance coverage to

damage or destruction to any or all of the buildings and improvements,
including, without limitation, the Building, on and in the Leased Premises,
whether or not caused by acts or negligence of Tenant or said occupant(s) or any
of their agents or employees; and
(iii) An endorsement whereby the insurer waives all
rights of subrogation against Tenant and any other occupant(s) of the Leased
Premises and any of their agents or employees.
27
43
(b) Tenant to Maintain Property Insurance.
(i) Tenant, at all times from and after the date on
which Tenant commences Tenant's Work (but not later than Landlord's Substantial
Completion of Landlord's Work) until such time as Tenant's Work is substantially
completed and Tenant has taken occupancy of the Leased Premises, at its sole
cost and expense, shall maintain Completed Value Form "All Physical Loss"
Builder's Risk Coverage on Tenant's Work ("Tenant's Builder's Risk Insurance")
flood and earthquake, and the perils of the all risk endorsement covering the
Leased Premises, with business income coverage equal to not less than one year's
Minimum Rent hereunder and with coinsurance waived. Alternatively, subject to
Landlord's approval, Landlord and Tenant shall jointly require the contractor
completing Landlord's Work and Tenant's Work (the "Contractor") to maintain
Completed Value Form "All Physical Loss" Builder's Risk Coverage on both
Landlord's Work and Tenant's Work, which coverage shall be maintained until
Tenant's Work is substantially completed and Tenant's Property Insurance
coverage commences; in that event, the cost of such insurance shall be prorated
between the parties based on the proportionate value of Landlord's Work and
Tenant's Work.
(ii) In addition, Tenant, at all times from and after
the date on which Substantial Completion of Landlord's Work occurs shall provide
property insurance coverage at least as broad as ISO Special Form Coverage
against risks of direct physical loss or damage (commonly known as "all risk"),
insuring the Building and the Improvements for the Full Replacement Cost
thereof, and including business income insurance, including insuring Landlord's
loss of rents (including all Minimum Rent, Real Estate Taxes, operating expenses
and other charges required to be paid by Tenant for not less than a 12-month
period) ("Tenant's Property Insurance"). If the Contractor maintains builders
risk insurance jointly for Landlord's Work and Tenant's Work (as referred to in
Paragraph 33(b)(i) above), then Tenant shall have the right to delay coverage
under Tenant's Property Insurance until Tenant's Work is substantially
completed, i.e., during the period that such joint builder's risk insurance
covers the Leased Premises.
(c) Provisions of Policies.
(i) The amount of Tenant's Property Insurance shall
be not less than the greater of
(A) one hundred percent (100%) of the Full
Replacement Cost (as defined in this subparagraph (b)) of the Building,
including all Alterations thereof, and all other buildings and improvements on
and in the Leased Premises required to be insured hereunder, providing for an
Agreed Amount endorsement and no deductible in excess of $10,000.00 (except a
customary deductible for earthquake not to exceed that permitted by Landlord's
Mortgagee), and
(B) an amount sufficient to prevent Tenant
from becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable policies of
Landlord's Fire Insurance.
28
44
The term "Full Replacement Cost" means the cost of
replacing the Building, including all Alterations thereof, and all other
buildings and improvements on and in the Leased Premises required to be insured
hereunder. Such Full Replacement Cost shall be determined from time to time (but
not more frequently than once in any twelve (12) calendar months) at the request
of either party by an insurer or by an appraiser, engineer, architect or
contractor designated by Landlord and approved in writing by Tenant and paid by
Tenant. No omission on the part of a party to request any such determination
shall relieve Tenant of any of its obligations under this Paragraph 33. Each
policy of Tenant's Property Insurance shall contain a "Replacement Cost
Endorsement".
(ii) Tenant's Property Insurance shall include:
"Ordinance or Law Coverage" or "Enforcement" endorsement if any of the
improvements or the use of the Leased Premises shall constitute non-conforming
structures or uses; boiler and machinery if reasonably required by Landlord;
earthquake and flood coverage; deletion of the exclusion for foundations and
other underground property and such other or additional coverages as may be
reasonably required by Landlord's Mortgagee.
(iii) All policies of Tenant's Property Insurance and
Tenant's Builder's Risk Insurance shall provide that Tenant and Landlord are
named as insureds, as their interests may appear, and the proceeds of any loss
shall be payable to Landlord and Tenant and to Landlord's Mortgagee so long as
such Mortgagee is obligated to apply proceeds of insurance to rebuild in the
manner provided for in this Lease. Tenant's Builder's Risk Insurance and
Tenant's Property Insurance shall identify Landlord's Mortgagee under a
mortgagee (non-contributory) endorsement reasonably satisfactory to Landlord's
Mortgagee.
(d) Waiver of Liability. Each party, on behalf of itself and
anyone claiming through or under it by way of subrogation or otherwise, hereby
waives all rights to recovery against the other and against any other
occupant(s) of the Leased Premises and any of their agents and employees and
Landlord's Mortgagee for damage or destruction to any property of such party,
including, without limitation, the Building, on and in the Leased Premises
arising out of fire or other casualty whether or not caused by acts or
negligence of the aforementioned persons, or anyone for whom said persons may be
responsible.
(e) Evidence of Coverage. Not later than thirty (30) days
prior to the date that Tenant's Builder's Risk Insurance and Tenant's Property
Insurance is required to be effective under this Paragraph, Tenant shall provide
Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee with Certified copies of policies or
certificates, in a form approved by Landlord evidencing Tenant's Builder's Risk
Insurance and Tenant's Property Insurance together with evidence of payment
therefor, shall be deposited with Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee. In
addition, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant renewal policies or certificates
thereof not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any policies
which Landlord is required to, or elects to, carry hereunder. Notwithstanding
anything in Paragraph 43 to the contrary, Landlord shall have the following
remedies in the event Tenant fails to maintain the insurance required under this
Paragraph 33: (i) Tenant's failure shall be deemed an Event of Default under
this Lease if, within five (5) days after written notice from Landlord, Tenant
fails to provide Landlord with reasonable evidence that Tenant has obtained the
requisite insurance policies;
29
45
or (ii) Landlord may immediately purchase the required insurance policies on
Tenant's behalf and charge Tenant the premium together with a ten percent (10%)
handling charge payable within ten (10) days after invoice.
34. Intentionally Omitted.
35. General Insurance Requirements. All insurance provided for in this
Lease shall be effected under valid and enforceable policies issued by insurers
of recognized responsibility which are licensed to do business in the State of
California and approved by Landlord in the good faith exercise of its
discretion. The insurance companies must have a general policy rating of A or
better and a financial class of VIII or better by A.M. Best Company, Inc. and a
claims paying ability of BBB or better according to Standard & Poors. To the
extent that the types of insurance coverages described in Paragraphs 32 or 33
are no longer available, there shall be substituted, at the request of Landlord
or Tenant, such equivalent coverage as may then be available consistent with
coverages maintained by owners of similar buildings in San Diego County,
California and consistent with the reasonable requirements of Landlord's
Mortgagee. Any dispute with regard to such coverages shall be subject to
arbitration.
36. Damage or Destruction.
(a) Destruction. If the Leased Premises and the Building and
improvements thereon, or any part thereof, are damaged or destroyed by fire, the
elements or other casualty (any such damage or destruction being herein called
"Casualty Damage"), Tenant shall diligently proceed to restore the property,
including the Building and all Alterations thereto, subject to the Casualty
Damage at Tenant's cost to a condition as near as possible to that in which such
property was immediately prior to the Casualty Damage. If Tenant for any reason
whatsoever fails to commence (or cause the commencement of) such restoration
work within nine (9) months from the date when the Casualty Damage occurred or
fails thereafter to complete such work (or cause the same to be so completed)
within the time periods set forth below, Landlord, in addition to such other
rights and remedies as may be accorded Landlord by law, shall have the right and
option to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice of Landlord's
election to do so any time prior to the completion of such work, provided Tenant
shall not then be actively undertaking such restoration work, and upon such
notice being given, the Term of this Lease shall automatically terminate and end
pursuant to the provisions of subparagraph 45(b), below. If the Casualty Damage
is partial, Tenant shall complete such restoration work within eighteen (18)
months after the Casualty Damage. If the Casualty Damage is total, Tenant shall
complete such restoration work within twenty-four (24) months after the Casualty
Damage. If Tenant fails to do so, Landlord shall have the right and option to
terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant, upon said deadline dates for
completion of restoration and upon said notice being given, the Term of this
Lease shall automatically terminate and end pursuant to the provisions of
subparagraph 45(b), below. In addition to Landlord's rights and remedies set
forth above in this subparagraph (a), if Tenant fails to commence or complete
the restoration work to the Leased Premises within the time periods set forth
above in this subparagraph (a), Landlord shall have the right to perform said
restoration work to the Leased Premises and xxxx Tenant for the same.
30
46
(b) Changes in Leased Premises. If Tenant is required to
restore the Leased Premises in accordance with subparagraph (a) above, Tenant
shall have the right to make changes in the Leased Premises in the course of
such restoration, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 23. If the cost of
restoration of the Leased Premises is increased by any change or changes made by
Tenant, then Tenant shall pay the amount by which the cost of restoration
exceeded what the cost of restoration of the Leased Premises would have been,
had the Leased Premises been restored to substantially the same condition as
existed immediately preceding the Casualty Damage.
(c) Damage to Leased Premises; Abatement of Rent. If the
Casualty Damage renders the Leased Premises unfit for Tenant's normal business
purposes, and Tenant by reason thereof discontinues business on the Leased
Premises, the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder,
shall be suspended for the period during which the same are not fit for such
business purposes to the extent, and only to the extent, of Landlord's recovery
under the rent loss coverage of the business income insurance maintained for
Landlord's benefit; and if the Casualty Damage renders only part of the Leased
Premises unfit for Tenant's normal business purposes, and Tenant elects to
operate its business upon the remaining part, then the Minimum Rent and
Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder shall be apportioned on a per square
foot basis and the proportion thereof applicable to each part of the Leased
Premises upon which Tenant discontinues its business operations shall be abated,
but only to the extent of Landlord's recovery under the rent loss coverage of
the business income insurance maintained for Landlord's benefit, for the period
during which such part is not fit for Tenant's normal business purposes or
during which Tenant discontinues business operations. If Tenant has paid Minimum
Rent or Additional Rent, in advance, Landlord shall immediately repay to Tenant
an amount equal to that portion of such payments which is abated and covered by
such loss of rents insurance.
(d) Arbitration. In the event that Landlord and Tenant are
unable to agree as to the extent of any abatement or as to any other issue under
this Paragraph 36, the matter shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to the
provisions of Paragraph 59, below.
(e) Application of Insurance Proceeds. In the event that the
Leased Premises, or any part thereof, are required to be restored as provided in
this Paragraph 36, insurance proceeds from Tenant's Property Insurance
(maintained pursuant to Paragraph 33, above), shall be applied in full to such
restoration, exclusive of loss of rents coverage to be paid to Landlord and
other business income insurance payable to Tenant. Such insurance proceeds shall
be deposited in trust with a savings bank, bank or trust company acceptable to
Landlord and under control of Landlord and Tenant, as trustee, or, if Landlord's
Mortgagee which is the holder of the first mortgage, if any, on the Leased
Premises shall be a savings bank, bank, trust company or insurance company, such
proceeds shall be deposited in trust with such holder, as trustee, and shall be
held and disbursed for restoration as provided in this Lease. The trustee shall
disburse the insurance proceeds to Tenant upon certification by Tenant, together
with such other evidence as the trustee may reasonably require, that the amounts
requested either shall have been paid in connection with the restoration or
shall be due to contractors, subcontractors, materialmen, architects or other
persons who have rendered services or have furnished materials for restoration,
and upon completion of restoration, the remaining balance, if any, of such
proceeds shall be paid to Landlord upon
31
47
demand or retained by the first mortgagee. In the event that the insurance
proceeds are insufficient to pay the entire cost of restoration pursuant to this
Paragraph, Tenant shall pay the deficiency without delay.
(f) Damage During Last Year. In the event of any Substantial
Casualty Damage to the Leased Premises within the last year prior to the
expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Period, and upon the failure of
Tenant to exercise a Renewal Option for a subsequent Renewal Period, Landlord
shall have the right to elect not to restore such Casualty Damage, in which
event, Landlord shall raze the damaged portion and put the same in good order by
paving or landscaping. The term "Substantial Casualty Damage" means any Casualty
Damage which reasonably shall cost more than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000.00) to repair or restore. In the event Landlord elects not to restore
such Substantial Casualty Damage, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this
Lease (by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord within thirty
(30) days after the casualty) and with Minimum Rent and Additional Rent,
prorated to the date of the Casualty Damage and with the date of termination
being no later than thirty (30) days after such notice is given. Upon said
termination, Landlord and Tenant shall be released from all further obligations
thereafter accruing; but such termination shall, in no event, release either
party from any liability to the other which has accrued prior to such
termination. Alternatively, in the event Landlord elects not to restore such
Substantial Casualty Damage and Tenant elects not to terminate this Lease,
Minimum Rent and Additional Rent shall be suspended for the period during which
the Leased Premises are not fit for business purposes, but only to the extent of
Landlord's recovery under the rent loss coverage of the business income
insurance maintained for Landlord's benefit; and if the Casualty Damage renders
only part of the Leased Premises unfit for Tenant's normal business purposes and
Tenant elects to operate its business in the remaining part, then the Minimum
Rent and Additional Rent shall be apportioned on a per square foot basis and the
proportion thereof applicable to each part of the Leased Premises upon which
Tenant discontinues its business operations shall be abated, but only to the
extent of Landlord's recovery under the rent loss coverage of the business
income insurance maintained for Landlord's benefit, for the period during which
such part is not fit for Tenant's normal business purposes or during which
Tenant discontinues business operations. If Tenant has paid Minimum Rent or
Additional Rent in advance, Landlord shall immediately repay to Tenant an amount
equal to that portion of such payments which is abated and covered by such loss
of rents insurance.
37. Eminent Domain.
(a) Complete Taking. If the whole of the Leased Premises
shall be taken under the power of eminent domain by any public, quasi-public or
private authority (the "Taking"), then this Lease shall terminate or expire as
of the date of such Taking, and any Minimum Rent and Additional Rent due
hereunder, if any, paid in advance, for a period after such date of termination
shall be refunded immediately by Landlord to Tenant. Upon said termination,
Landlord and Tenant shall be relieved of and released from all further
obligations thereafter to accrue hereunder; but such termination shall, in no
event, relieve or release either party from any liability to the other which has
accrued prior to the termination of this Lease, including, but not limited to,
Landlord's obligation to pay to Tenant all or any portion of Landlord's
Contribution (as defined in Paragraph 13, above) for costs and
32
48
expenses incurred by Tenant prior to termination to which Tenant may be entitled
in accordance with that Paragraph.
(b) Partial Taking. In the event of a permanent Taking of ten
percent (10%) of the usable area of the Building, or in the event of a Taking
resulting in a reduction of twenty percent (20%) or more of the automobile
parking spaces (unless Landlord provides within ninety (90) days after the
Taking adequate and sufficient additional contiguous parking areas in
substitution therefor), Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by giving
notice of termination to Landlord on or before the date which is ninety (90)
days after receipt by Tenant of notice that the Taking or denial or diminishing
of access shall have occurred. Any notice of termination shall state the date of
termination, which date of termination shall be not more than thirty (30) days
after the date on which such notice of termination is given to Landlord, and
(i) upon the date specified in such notice of
termination this Lease and the term hereof shall cease and expire, and
(ii) any Minimum Rent or Additional Rent due
hereunder, paid in advance, for a period after such date of termination shall be
refunded by Landlord to Tenant.
Upon said termination, Landlord and Tenant shall be
relieved of and released from all further obligations thereafter to accrue
hereunder; but such termination shall, in no event, relieve or release either
party from any liability to the other which has accrued prior to the termination
of this Lease, including, but not limited to, Landlord's obligation to pay to
Tenant all or any portion of Landlord's Contribution (as defined in Paragraph
13, above) for costs and expenses incurred by Tenant prior to termination to
which Tenant may be entitled in accordance with that Paragraph.
(c) Abatement of Rent. In the event that any part of the
Leased Premises, shall be so Taken or diminished and Tenant elects not to
terminate this Lease, then commencing upon the date of vesting of title or of
the event of said Taking, whichever occurs earlier, the Minimum Rent and
Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder shall xxxxx so that such Rent
payable immediately after the Taking shall bear the same ratio to the Rent
payable immediately before the Taking as the value of the Leased Premises
remaining after the Taking bears to the value of the Leased Premises immediately
before the Taking; provided, however, there shall be no abatement of rent unless
usable square footage of the Building is Taken or parking spaces are Taken for
which adequate and sufficient substitute parking spaces are not provided. If
Landlord shall be obligated to perform restoration work under the provisions of
this Paragraph 37, and if Tenant is deprived of the use of the Leased Premises
during the performance by Landlord of the restoration work the Minimum Rent and
Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder shall be suspended until such
restoration work on the Leased Premises and access thereto shall have been
completed, apportioned on a per square foot basis and the proportion thereof
applicable to each part of the Leased Premises upon which Tenant discontinues
its business operations shall be abated for the period during which such part is
not fit for Tenant's normal business purposes. If the parties cannot agree upon
the amount by which such Rent is to be abated, the same shall be submitted to
and
33
49
determined on the basis above provided by arbitration pursuant to the provisions
of Xxxxxxxxx 00, xxxxx.
(x) Restoration. In the event that any part of the Leased
Premises shall be so taken and Tenant elects not to terminate this Lease, then
Landlord shall restore the Building, including Tenant's Alterations and Tenant
Fixtures, to a complete unit as similar as is reasonably possible in design,
character and quality to the building which existed before such Taking. In the
event that any part of the parking area or access thereto, shall be so taken or
diminished and Tenant elects not to terminate this Lease, then Landlord shall
restore the parking areas and the access thereto, as nearly as reasonably
possible, to the condition they were in prior to such Taking. The award or
payment for the Taking paid to Landlord shall be used by Landlord for said
restoration and Landlord shall promptly commence and with due diligence continue
to restore the Leased Premises after the Taking; Landlord shall not be obligated
to expend any sums in excess of such award or payment for the purpose of said
restoration. In the event that Landlord fails to commence said restoration
within two (2) months after the Taking or in the event Landlord fails to
complete said restoration within six (6) months after the Taking and is not
actively and diligently proceeding with the restoration work, subject to
Unavoidable Delays, Tenant shall have the option of terminating this Lease by
notifying Landlord of its election to do so after the expiration of said two (2)
month or six (6) month period, as the case may be (as such deadlines may be
extended by Unavoidable Delay), and upon such notice being given the term of
this Lease shall automatically terminate and end pursuant to the provisions of
subparagraph 45(c), below.
(e) Claims for Awards. In the event of a Taking resulting in
the termination of this Lease, the parties hereto agree to cooperate in applying
for and in prosecuting any claim for compensation for such Taking and further
agree, that the aggregate net award, after deducting all expenses and costs,
including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection therewith, shall be paid in
the following order:
(i) First, Landlord shall receive the entirety of the
award for the Leased Premises, including the Building, and the Building Fixtures
and Equipment but exclusive of Tenant Fixtures Taken and exclusive of
Alterations (other than Alterations or replacements or substitutions for items
of Landlord's Improvements).
(ii) Second, Tenant shall have the fight to receive
any relocation damages separately afforded tenants under California laws as well
as the right to receive compensation or damages for Tenant Fixtures and
Alterations (in accordance with subparagraph (f) below). Provided, however, that
Tenant shall waive all damages which shall diminish Landlord's right to recover
for its interests as provided in subparagraph (i) above. If the condemning
authority shall refuse to permit separate claims to be made, then and in that
event Landlord shall prosecute, with counsel satisfactory to Tenant and
Landlord, the claims of both Landlord and Tenant, and the proceeds of the award
shall be divided between Landlord and Tenant in accordance with the foregoing
provisions.
(f) Claims for Costs of Alterations. Tenant may make a claim
in the condemnation proceedings on account of a Taking for the value of any
Tenant's Improvements and Alterations made to or erected on the Leased Premises
by Tenant or of
34
50
any Tenant Fixtures Taken placed upon or installed in the Leased Premises by
Tenant (other than Alterations that are replacements or substitutions for items
of Landlord's Improvements). The value of such Tenant's Improvements,
Alterations and Tenant Fixtures shall be the unamortized value based on the
total amount of Tenant's expenditures for such items multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the lesser of (x) the number of years between
the date of the Taking and the last day of the Term of this Lease, including all
Renewal Periods, regardless of whether Tenant shall have exercised Renewal
Options therefor, and the denominator of which shall be the number of years
between the date(s) of Tenant's Expenditures and the last day of the term of
this Lease, including all Renewal Periods, regardless of whether Tenant shall
have executed Renewal Options therefor; in no event, however, shall the value of
such Tenant's Improvements, Alterations and Tenant Fixtures for which Tenant may
be entitled hereunder exceed the positive difference, if any between (i) the
total award on account of such Taking and (ii) the then-current actual value of
Landlord's Improvements determined based on then-current standard appraisal
methods. In the event Landlord's award does not specify the amount attributable
separately to the value of Landlord's Improvements and such Tenant's
Improvements, Alterations and Tenant Fixtures, and Landlord and Tenant cannot
agree on the amount of such values, such amounts shall be determined by
arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 59, below. Any claims by
Tenant for the value of the Tenant's Improvements, Alterations and Tenant
Fixtures shall nevertheless be subject and subordinate to the rights of the
holder of any first mortgage on the Leased Premises to which this Lease is
subject and subordinate and who has entered into the agreement described in
subparagraph 38(a), below.
(g) Date of Taking. A Taking shall be deemed to have occurred
on the date possession is required by the condemning authority.
(h) Application of Proceeds of Award. The proceeds of any
award or payment belonging to Landlord shall be paid and disbursed in the same
manner that the proceeds of property insurance are required to be paid and
disbursed pursuant to subparagraph 36(f) above.
38. Subordination, Recognition, Non-Disturbance and Attornment.
(a) Tenant to Subordinate. Tenant agrees, at the request of
Landlord, to execute an agreement whereby Tenant will subordinate this Lease to
the lien of any first mortgage of the entire fee interest in the Leased Premises
now or hereafter made to a bank, trust company, savings and loan association,
insurance company, or other similar institutional type lender, and any renewals,
modifications or extensions thereof, provided that such subordination shall be
effective only upon the execution by the holder of such mortgage of an
agreement, for the benefit of Tenant, in recordable form, executed, acknowledged
and delivered by such mortgagee to Tenant (with the joinder of Landlord), which
shall be on the lender's standard form subordination and non-disturbance
agreement and contain in substance the following provisions and such other
provisions as such holder may reasonably require:
(i) So long as Tenant continues to pay the Rent as
provided in this Lease and otherwise complies with the terms and provisions
hereof, the right of possession
35
51
of Tenant to the Leased Premises, and all of the other rights of Tenant under
the terms and provisions of this Lease shall otherwise not be affected, impaired
or disturbed, nor shall this Lease or the term hereof be terminated, by the
mortgagee in the exercise of any of its rights under the mortgage or the bond or
debts secured thereby, or otherwise by law provided.
(ii) In the event that the mortgagee comes into
possession of or ownership of the title of the Lease Premises by foreclosure of
the mortgage, or by proceedings on the bond or otherwise, this Lease and all
rights of Tenant hereunder shall continue in effect and shall not be terminated
by any of said proceedings.
(iii) If the mortgagee shall become the owner of the
Leased Premises by reason of foreclosure of the mortgage or otherwise, or if the
Leased Premises shall be sold as a result of any action or proceeding to
foreclose the mortgage or by a deed given in lieu of foreclosure, the Lease
shall continue in full force and effect, without necessity for executing any new
lease, as a direct lease between Tenant, as tenant thereunder, and the then
owner of the Leased Premises as landlord thereunder, upon all of the same terms,
covenants and provisions contained in the Lease, and in such event, Tenant shall
be bound to such new owner under all of the terms, covenants and provisions of
the Lease and Tenant hereby agrees to attorn to such new owner and to recognize
such new owner as Landlord under this Lease, and such new owner shall be bound
to Tenant under all of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Lease,
including any amendments of the Lease whether made before or after the date of
the mortgage, which terms, covenants and provisions such new owner hereby agrees
to assume and perform; provided that such attornment shall not relieve Landlord
of any and all of its liabilities to Tenant arising under this Lease prior to
such attornment and further provided, however, such party shall not be (i)
liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord or (ii) subject to any
offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord
(including Landlord); or (iii) bound by any rental which Tenant might have paid
for more than one (1) month in advance to any prior landlord; or (iv) bound by
any amendment or modification of the Lease made without its consent.
(iv) Tenant shall not be named or joined as a party
defendant or otherwise in any suit, action or proceeding for the foreclosure of
the mortgage or to enforce any rights under the mortgage or the bond or other
obligation secured thereby, unless required by applicable law.
(v) Mortgagee acknowledges and agrees that all Tenant
Fixtures shall be and remain the property of Tenant, or any subtenant, assignee,
licensee or concessionaire of Tenant, or any Equipment Lessor or may be removed
by Tenant, or any subtenant, assignee, licensee or concessionaire of Tenant, or
any Equipment Lessor at any time, in accordance with Paragraph 24.
(vi) If the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, is
damaged by fire or other casualty or taken by condemnation, the mortgagee agrees
that insurance proceeds and/or condemnation awards payable to it will be made
available for the purpose of repairing or rebuilding the Leased Premises, as
provided and subject to the provisions in this Lease.
36
52
(vii) The agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of mortgagee, owner and Tenant, and their respective heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
Tenant acknowledges that the form attached hereto as Exhibit "G" is approved for
the purposes of this Paragraph.
(b) Mortgagee May Require Lease to be Prior. If the holder of
any first mortgage of the entire fee interest of the Mortgaged Property, or any
part thereof, including without limitation the Leased Premises, requires that
this Lease have priority over such mortgage, Tenant shall, upon request of such
holder, execute, acknowledge and deliver to such holder an agreement
acknowledging such priority and containing the agreement of such mortgagee to
apply insurance proceeds and condemnation awards to restoration as herein
provided.
(c) Notice of Default to Mortgagee. If the holder of the first
mortgage covering the Leased Premises shall have given prior written notice to
Tenant that it is the holder of said first mortgage ("Mortgagee") and such
notice includes the address at which notices to such Mortgagee are to be sent,
then Tenant agrees to give to the Mortgagee notice simultaneously with any
notice given to Landlord to correct any default of Landlord as hereinabove
provided, and agrees that if Landlord fails to cure such default within the time
provided the Mortgagee shall have the right, within an additional 30 days
following a second notice from Tenant or, if such default cannot be cured within
that time, such additional time as may be necessary provided within such 30 days
Mortgagee commences and diligently pursues a cure (including commencement of
foreclosure proceedings if necessary to effect such cure) to correct or remedy
such default before Tenant may take any action under this Lease by reason of
such default, except for Tenant's rights under Paragraph 45(b)(i).
(d) Mortgagee's Requirements. Tenant will make such
modifications to this Lease as may hereafter be required to conform to any
reasonable and/or customary Mortgagee's requirements, so long as such
modifications do not increase Tenant's obligations or materially alter its
rights.
39. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees that if Tenant shall
perform all the covenants and agreements herein stipulated to be performed on
Tenant's part, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the
Leased Premises and all rights, easements, appurtenances and privileges
belonging or in anywise appertaining thereto during the Initial Term and all
Renewal Periods, subject to the Permitted Exceptions, without hindrance or
interruption by any person or persons lawfully or equitably claiming by, through
or under Landlord. Landlord shall in no event be liable in damages or otherwise,
nor shall Tenant be released from any obligations hereunder (except as expressly
provided in Paragraph 33(d)), because of the interruption of any service, or a
termination, interruption or disturbance, attributable to strike, lockout,
breakdown, accident, war or other emergency, law, order, rule or regulation of
or by any governmental authority, failure of supply, inability to obtain
supplies, parts or employees, or any cause due to any act or neglect of Tenant
or its servants, agents, employees, licensees, business invitees, or any person
claiming by, through or under Tenant.
37
53
40. Condition of Title. Tenant is entering into this Lease in reliance
on the a preliminary Title Report issued by First American Title Insurance
Company (the "Title Company") containing the commitment of the title insurance
company to issue to Tenant an ALTA or CLTA form leasehold owner's title
insurance policy upon the payment by Tenant of the standard premium as provided
therein, free and clear of all leases, tenancies, easements, agreements,
encumbrances, restrictions, liens, or any other defects in title other than
those listed on EXHIBIT "C" hereto (the "Permitted Exceptions"). Except for
Landlord's warranty of quiet enjoyment as to claims arising by, through or under
Landlord (as set forth in Paragraph 39), Landlord makes no warranty of title to
Tenant and Tenant shall rely solely upon the title insurance for protection as
to matters of title. Landlord and Tenant each represents, warrants and covenants
to the other that it has the right and lawful authority to enter into this Lease
for the Term hereof, including any Renewal Periods.
41. Recording, Delivery of Title Report. Landlord and Tenant have
executed, simultaneously with the execution hereof, the document required by
statute for the validity and notice of this Lease (the "Memorandum"). Landlord
and Tenant shall deliver the Memorandum to the Title Company with instructions
to record and issue Tenant's Title insurance policy in accordance with Paragraph
40. Landlord agrees to pay all recording charges, transfer taxes and other taxes
imposed upon the entering into of this Lease and the recording of the
Memorandum, and any costs and expenses incurred in connection with Landlord's
obtaining the Title Report hereinabove described; Tenant agrees to pay for the
leasehold title insurance policy issued in accordance with the Title Report.

a nationally recognized overnight courier service for next business day (or
sooner) delivery or (iv) delivered via telecopier or facsimile transmission to

39
55

(d) All payments of rent and any other charges under this Lease
shall be paid to Landlord at the address of Landlord provided in this Paragraph
or at such other address as Landlord may specify in written notice given
pursuant hereto.
43. Tenant's Default.
(a) Event of Default Defined. The term "Event of Default" with
respect to Tenant shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following
events:
(i) if default shall be made in the due and punctual
payment of any Minimum Rent and Additional Rent payable under this Lease when
and as the same shall become due and payable that shall continue for a period of
five (5) business days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant;
(ii) if Tenant shall make any assignment of
substantially all of its assets for the benefit of creditors or shall be
adjudged a bankrupt, or if a receiver is appointed for Tenant or its assets or
Tenant's interest under this Lease and the appointment of such receiver, if
involuntary, is not vacated within sixty (60) days, or if Tenant shall file or
have filed against it a petition under or pursuant to any of the provisions of
the U.S. Bankruptcy Act, the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or any other federal or
state law relating to insolvency, or any amendment thereof or substitute
thereof, and such petition, if involuntary, is not vacated within sixty (60)
days, or the adjudication that the Tenant is insolvent or bankrupt or the entry
of an order for relief under the Federal Bankruptcy Code with respect to Tenant;
(iii) there is an Event of Default as defined in
Paragraphs 29, 33 or 51; and
(iv) if default shall be made by Tenant in performing
any other of the terms, covenants or agreements contained in this Lease on
Tenant's part to be performed, and such default shall continue for a period of
thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant or in the
case of such a default which cannot with due diligence and in good faith be
cured within thirty (30) days, the Tenant fails to commence within such
thirty-day period to cure the same and thereafter to prosecute the curing of
such default with due diligence and in good faith;
(b) Landlord's Remedies. If any one or more Event of Default
shall happen, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord's election then or
at any time thereafter, but provided Landlord has not thereafter accepted
Tenant's cure, either:
(1) (i) Without demand or notice, to reenter and take
possession of the Leased Premises or any part thereof and repossess the same as
of Landlord's former estate and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under
Tenant and remove the effects of both or either, without being deemed guilty of
any manner of trespass and without prejudice to
40
56
any remedies for arrears of rent or preceding breach of covenants or conditions.
Should Landlord elect to reenter, as provided in this subparagraph (1), or
should Landlord take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any
notice provided for by law, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating
this Lease, relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, either alone or in
conjunction with other portions of the Building of which the Leased Premises are
a part, in Landlord's or Tenant's name but for the account of Tenant, for such
term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would
otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this Lease) and on such
commercially reasonable conditions and upon such other terms (which may include
concessions of free rent and alteration and repair of the Leased Premises) as
Landlord, in its discretion, may determine and Landlord may collect and receive
the rents therefor. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable for any
failure to relet the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, or for any failure to
collect any rent due upon such reletting. No such reentry or taking possession
of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on
Landlord's part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such
intention be given to Tenant. No notice from Landlord hereunder or under a
forcible entry and detainer statute or similar law shall constitute an election
by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so states.
Landlord reserves the right following any such reentry and/or reletting to
exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant such written notice,
in which event the Lease will terminate as specified in said notice.
(ii) If Landlord elects to take possession of the
Leased Premises as provided in this subparagraph (1) without terminating the
Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord (a) the rent and other sums as herein
provided, which would be payable hereunder if such repossession had not
occurred, less (b) the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased
Premises after deducting all of Landlord's commercially reasonable expenses
incurred in connection with such reletting, including, but without limitation,
all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees,
expenses of employees, alteration, remodeling, and repair costs and expenses of
preparation for such reletting. If, in connection with any reletting, the new
lease term extends beyond the existing Term or the premises covered thereby
include other premises not part of the Leased Premises, a fair apportionment of
the rent received from such reletting and the expenses incurred in connection
therewith, as provided aforesaid, will be made in determining the net proceeds
received from such reletting. In addition, in determining the net proceeds from
such reletting, any rent concessions will be apportioned over the term of the
new lease. Tenant shall pay such amounts to Landlord monthly on the days on
which Minimum Rent and Additional Rent and all other amounts owing hereunder
would have been payable if possession had not been retaken and Landlord shall be
entitled to receive the same from Tenant on each such day; or
(2) To give Tenant written notice of intention to terminate
this Lease on the date of such given notice or on any later date specified
therein and, on the date specified in such notice, Tenant's right to possession
of the Leased Premises shall cease and the Lease shall thereupon be terminated,
except as to Tenant's liability hereunder as hereinafter provided, as if the
expiration of the term fixed in such notice were the end of the Term herein
originally demised. In the event this Lease is terminated pursuant to the
provisions of this subparagraph (2), Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord for
damages in an amount equal
41
57
to the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent and other sums which would have been
owing by Tenant hereunder for the balance of the Term had this Lease not been
terminated less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased
Premises by Landlord subsequent to such termination, after deducting all
Landlord's commercially reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting,
including, but without limitation, the expenses enumerated above. Landlord shall
be entitled to collect such damages from Tenant monthly on the days on which the
Minimum Rent and Additional Rent and other amounts would have been payable
hereunder if this Lease had not been terminated and Landlord shall be entitled
to receive the same from Tenant on each such day. Alternatively, at the option
of Landlord, in the event this Lease is terminated, Landlord shall be entitled
to recover forthwith against Tenant as damages for loss of the bargain and not
as a penalty an amount equal to the worth at the time of termination of the
excess, if any, of the amount of Minimum Rent and Additional Rent reserved in
this Lease for the balance of the Term hereof over the then Reasonable Rental
Value of the Leased Premises for the same period plus all amounts incurred by
Landlord in order to obtain possession of the Leased Premises and relet the
same, including reasonable attorneys' fees, reletting expenses, alterations and
repair costs, brokerage commissions and all other like amounts, all discounted
to present value (calculated on the basis of a discount rate of 6% per annum).
It is agreed that the "Reasonable Rental Value" shall be the amount of rental
which Landlord can obtain as rent for the remaining balance of the term.
(c) Reletting at End of Term. At any time or from time to time
after Landlord takes possession of the Leased Premises pursuant to subparagraph
(1) or subparagraph (2) above, Landlord may relet the Leased Premises or any
part thereof, in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for such term or terms
(which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the term of this Lease) and on such conditions if
commercially reasonable (which may include concessions or free rent) as
Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, may determine and may collect and
receive the rents therefor. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable
for any failure to relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, or for any
failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting; but Landlord shall use
reasonable efforts to relet the Leased Premises and to collect such rent;
provided, that Landlord shall have the right to give preference to other space
that Landlord may have in other buildings and not be required to expend monies
for tenant concessions and allowances beyond those for leases then being entered
into by Landlord for comparable space in other buildings at such time. If Tenant
has reason to believe that Landlord is not using reasonable diligence to
mitigate Landlord's damages, Tenant shall notify Landlord of such determination
as soon as reasonably practicable.
44. Intentionally Omitted.
45. Landlord's Default.
(a) Event of Default Defined. The term "Event of Default" with
respect to Landlord shall mean if default shall be made by Landlord in
performing any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained in this Lease on
Landlord's part to be performed, and such default shall continue for a period of
thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord or, in the
case of such a default which cannot with due diligence and in good faith be
cured within thirty (30) days, Landlord fails to commence within such
42
58
thirty-day period to cure the same and thereafter to prosecute the curing of
such default with due diligence and in good faith.
(b) Tenant's Remedies.
(i) Tenant's Right to Perform on Behalf of Landlord.
Landlord agrees that if an Event of Default occurs with respect to: (A)
Landlord's failure to pay any installment of assessments of any interest,
principal, costs or other charges upon any mortgage or mortgages or other liens
and encumbrances affecting the Leased Premises and to which this Lease may be
subordinate for which Tenant has not received a non-disturbance agreement in
accordance with Paragraph 38 when any of the same become due, or (B) Landlord's
failure to make any repairs, do any work or pay any monies to Tenant, required
of Landlord by the provisions of this Lease, or (C) respect to Landlord's
failure to perform any covenant or agreement in this Lease contained on the part
of Landlord to be performed; then Tenant may pay, but shall be under no
obligation to pay, said taxes, assessments, interest, principal, costs and other
charges, and may cure such defaults all on behalf of and at the expense of
Landlord, and do all necessary work (provided that Tenant gives prior notice of
not less than ten (10) days of its intention to do such and a description of the
work to be performed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord fails to
perform an obligation to repair or replace required under Paragraph 22(b) after
reasonable prior notice from Tenant and an emergency exists (threatening
imminent harm to persons or property in the Building), Tenant shall have the
right upon reasonable prior notice to Landlord to perform such repairs or
replacements (notwithstanding that the applicable periods and notice required
for an Event of Default by Landlord have not occurred). Except in the case of a
matter or thing for which Tenant is obligated to reimburse Landlord hereunder as
Additional Rent, Landlord agrees to pay to Tenant forthwith the amount so paid
by Tenant, including reasonable attorneys' fees, together with interest thereon
at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, and agrees that Tenant may withhold
any and all payments of Minimum Rent and Additional Rent thereafter becoming due
to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or any extension thereof,
and may apply the same to the payment of such indebtedness of Landlord to Tenant
until such indebtedness is fully paid with interest thereon as herein provided
that Tenant may not withhold payment of Rent until after ten (10) days' prior
notice of Tenant's election to withhold to Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee and
further provided, however, that if Landlord or the Mortgagee disputes by notice
to Tenant within such ten (10) day period that such amounts are owed by
Landlord, Tenant shall have no right to withhold such amounts until the amounts
are found to be due Tenant by arbitration. Nothing herein contained shall
preclude Tenant from proceeding to bring an action in accordance with Paragraph
(iii) below to collect the amount so paid by it as aforesaid without waiting for
such offsets from Minimum Rent or Additional Rent to accrue. Tenant hereby
waives the right to terminate this Lease or to offset against Minimum Rent and
Additional Rent existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise (to the
extent such waiver is not prohibited by applicable law) except in accordance
with the express terms and provisions of this Lease.
(ii) Landlord Not Released. Under no circumstances
shall the exercise by Tenant of the rights granted in subparagraph (a) above to
take all such action as may be necessary to cure any default by Landlord release
Landlord in any manner
43
59
whatsoever from liability for the performance of any obligations of Landlord
under the terms of this Lease.
(iii) Additional Remedies. Tenant may bring an action
for actual direct money damages or for injunctive relief, or both, in any court
of competent jurisdiction, provided any damages shall be subject to the
limitations and waivers provided in the Lease and in no event will Landlord or
any Mortgagee be responsible for any consequential damages incurred by Tenant
as a result of any default, including, but not limited to, lost profits, income
or interruption of business.
46. Remedies Cumulative. Subject to the limitations and waivers
provided in the Lease, each right or remedy of Landlord and Tenant provided for
in this Lease shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right
or remedy provided for in this Lease or otherwise, and the exercise or the
beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant of any of one (1) or more of the
rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, unless expressly prohibited,
limited or waived hereunder, shall not preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise by Landlord or Tenant of any and all other rights or remedies provided
for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute
or otherwise, unless expressly prohibited, limited or waived hereunder. In any
action brought by either party to enforce or contest any provision of this
Lease, or to obtain a declaration of the rights or responsibilities of either
party hereunder, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all costs and
expenses, including attorneys' fees, reasonably incurred by such prevailing
party in connection with such action.
47. No Waiver. No failure by Landlord or by Tenant to insist upon the
strict performance of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease or to
exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance
by Landlord of partial Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall
constitute a waiver of any such breach or of such term, covenant or condition.
No term, covenant or condition of this Lease to be kept, observed or performed
by Landlord or by Tenant, and no breach thereof, shall be waived, altered or
modified, except by a written instrument executed by Landlord or by Tenant, as
the case may be. No waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Lease, but
each and every term, covenant and condition of this Lease shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach
thereof.
48. Waiver of Jury Trial. TENANT AND LANDLORD HEREBY WAIVE (TO THE
EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW) ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN SUIT OR SUITS
BROUGHT TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS LEASE OR ARISING OUT OF OR CONCERNING
THE PROVISIONS OF THIS LEASE.
49. Unavoidable Delays. If either party shall be prevented or delayed
from punctually performing any obligation or satisfying any condition under this
Lease by any strike, lockout, labor dispute, inability to obtain labor or
material, Act of God, adverse weather condition, governmental restriction,
regulation or control, enemy or hostile governmental action, civil commotion,
insurrection, sabotage, fire or other casualty or by any other event similar to
the foregoing beyond the reasonable control of such party, and not
44
60
the fault of the party delayed in performing any obligation or satisfying any
condition under this Lease (all such events being hereinafter called
"Unavoidable Delay"), then the time to perform such obligation or satisfy such
condition shall be postponed by the period of time consumed by the delay. If
either party shall, as a result of an Unavoidable Delay, be unable to exercise
any right or option within any time limit provided therefor in this Lease, the
time for exercise thereof shall be postponed for the period of time consumed by
such delay. In no event shall the periods specified in subparagraphs 2(e) and 9
above or the time limits for restoration after a destruction or a Taking as set
forth in Paragraphs 36 and 37 above be extended by reason of the foregoing
events of Unavoidable Delay for a period in excess of ninety (90) days. In no
event shall the obligation of either Landlord or Tenant to pay money be extended
by reason of the foregoing events of Unavoidable Delay.
50. Relationship of Parties. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be
deemed or construed by the parties hereto or by any third party to create the
relationship of principal and agent or of partnership or of joint venture or of
any association whatsoever between Landlord and Tenant, it being expressly
understood and agreed that nothing herein shall be deemed to create any
relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than the relationship of landlord
and tenant. The obligations imposed by this Lease on Tenant shall be joint and
several obligations of the entities collectively constituting Tenant.
51. Estoppel Certificates. Upon the request of either party, at any
time or from time to time, Landlord and Tenant agree to execute, acknowledge and
deliver to the other, within fifteen (15) days after such request, a written
instrument, duly executed and acknowledged,
(a) certifying that this Lease has not been modified and is in
full force and effect or, if there has been a modification of this Lease, that
this Lease is in full force and effect as modified, stating such modifications;
(b) specifying the dates to which all sums payable hereunder
by either Landlord or Tenant, including without limitation, Minimum Rent,
Additional Rent and Landlord's Contribution, have been paid;
(c) stating whether or not, to the knowledge of the party
executing such instrument, the other party hereto is in default and, if such
party is in default, stating the nature of such default;
(d) stating the Rent Commencement Date;
(e) stating which Renewal Options have been exercised or
deemed waived, if any; and
(f) such other information as the party requesting the
estoppel may reasonably request.
It is intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this Paragraph may
be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of all or any portion of Landlord's
interest herein or a holder of any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the
Leased Premises. If either party
45
61
fails to provide such statement to the requesting party within such 15 day
period, and such failure continues for 5 days following additional notice of
such failure from the requesting party, such failure shall be deemed an Event of
Default, without further notice or opportunity to cure being required.
52. Broker. Tenant represents and warrants that it has dealt with no
broker or brokers in connection with this Lease. Landlord represents and
warrants that it has dealt with no broker or brokers in connection with this
Lease, except Xxxx Xxxxxxx & Company (the "Broker") (whose commission shall be
paid by Landlord pursuant to separate agreement). Each party will defend,
indemnify and hold harmless the other from any loss, cost, damage or expense
arising by reason of any actual or alleged breach of the foregoing warranty.
Tenant acknowledges that Tenant is not relying on any representations or
warranties of Broker.
53. Covenants to Run with the Land; Binding Effect. Subject to the
provisions of this Lease, the terms, covenants, agreements, provisions,
conditions and limitations herein contained shall be construed as covenants
running with the land and shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and assigns, respectively, of Landlord and
Tenant. This Lease is to be construed as though the covenants between Landlord
and Tenant are independent and not dependent and Tenant is not entitled to any
setoff of the Rent against Landlord if Landlord fails to perform its
obligations, except as expressly provided herein.
54. Choice of Law. This Lease and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereto, shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of California.
55. Entire Agreement; Interpretation. This Lease and the Exhibits
attached hereto contain the entire agreement between the parties, and no oral
statements or representations of prior written matter not contained herein shall
have any force or effect. This Lease and the Exhibits attached hereto cannot be
changed, modified or amended unless such change, modification or amendment is in
writing and executed by the party against which the enforcement of the change,
modification or amendment is sought. The parties waive any rule of construction
that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party. Any words
following the words "include," "including," "such as," "for example," or similar
words or phrases shall be illustrative only and are not intended to be
exclusive, whether or not language of non-limitation is used.
56. Invalidity of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this Lease
shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions of this Lease
shall not be affected thereby and each and every provision of this Lease shall
be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
57. Captions. The captions preceding the paragraphs of this Lease are
intended only as a matter of convenience and for reference and in no way define,

CORPORATE GUARANTY
In consideration of and as an inducement for the granting, execution
and delivery of that certain Lease, dated August 27, 1997 (hereinafter called
"Lease"), by SAN DIEGO DEVELOPMENT #1 LLC, a Colorado limited liability company,
the Landlord therein named (hereinafter called "Landlord"), to ADVANTA MORTGAGE
CORP. USA, a Delaware corporation, the Tenant therein named (hereinafter called
"Tenant") with respect to premises commonly known as lot 63, 4S Ranch and
located on Rancho Xxxxxxxx Road in the County of San Diego, California, and in
further consideration of the sum of One Dollar ($1.00) and other good and
valuable consideration paid by Landlord to the undersigned, ADVANTA CORP., a
Delaware corporation (hereinafter called "Guarantor"), intending to be legally
bound, hereby guarantees to Landlord the full and prompt payment when due of all
Minimum Rent and Additional Rent and any and all other sums and charges payable
by Tenant under the Lease, and the full, faithful and prompt performance and
observance of all the covenants, terms, conditions, and agreements therein
provided to be performed and observed by Tenant, to the same extent as though
both Guarantor and Tenant had been named in the Lease as tenants therein with
joint and several liability, (the "Obligations"); and Guarantor does hereby
become surety to Landlord for and with respect to all of the Obligations.
Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees to and with Landlord that if
default shall at any time be made by Tenant in the payment of any such rent or
other sums or charges payable by Tenant under the Lease or in the performance of
any of the covenants, terms, conditions or agreements contained in the Lease,
Guarantor will forthwith pay such rent or other sums or charges to Landlord, and
any arrears thereof, and will forthwith faithfully perform and fulfill all of
such covenants, terms, conditions and agreements, and will forthwith pay to
Landlord all damages and all costs and expenses that may arise in consequence of
any default by Tenant under the Lease (including, without limitation, all
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord or caused by any such default
and/or by the enforcement of this Guaranty).
This Guaranty is an absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment (and
not of collection) and of performance and is a surety agreement. Guarantor's
liability hereunder is direct and may be enforced without Landlord being
required to resort to any other right, remedy or security and this Guaranty
shall be enforceable against Guarantor, without the necessity for any suit or
proceedings on Landlord's part of any kind or nature whatsoever against Tenant,
and without the necessity of any notice of non-payment, non-performance or
non-observance or the continuance of any such default or of any notice of
acceptance of this Guaranty or of Landlord's intention to act in reliance hereon
or of any other notice or demand to which Guarantor might otherwise be entitled,
all of which Guarantor hereby expressly waives; and Guarantor hereby expressly
agrees that the validity of this Guaranty and the Obligations of Guarantor
hereunder shall in nowise be terminated, affected or impaired by reason of the
assertion or the failure to assert by Landlord against Tenant, of
72
any of the rights or remedies reserved to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of
the Lease. Landlord may maintain successive actions for other defaults. Its
rights hereunder shall not be exhausted by its exercise of any of its rights or
remedies or by any such action or by any number of successive actions, until and
unless all Obligations hereby guaranteed have been paid and fully performed.
This Guaranty shall be a continuing Guaranty, and (whether or not
Guarantor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the following) the liability
and obligation of Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be
released, discharged or in any way impaired by (a) any amendment or modification
of, or supplement to, or extension or renewal of, the Lease or any assignment or
transfer thereof; (b) any exercise or non-exercise of any right, power, remedy
or privilege under or in respect of the Lease or this Guaranty or any waiver,
consent or approval by Landlord with respect to any of the covenants, terms,
conditions or agreements contained in the Lease or any indulgences, forbearances
or extensions of time for performance or observance allowed to Tenant from time
to time and for any length of time; (c) any bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar
proceeding relating to Tenant, or its properties; (d) any limitation on the
liability or obligation of Tenant under the Lease or its estate in bankruptcy or
of any remedy for the enforcement thereof resulting from the operation of any
present or future provision of the federal bankruptcy law or any other statute
or from the decision of any court; (e) any sublease or transfer by Tenant or any
assignment, mortgage or pledge of its interest under the Lease (f) any
termination of the Lease prior to the expiration of its Term; or (g) any
agreement entered into between the Landlord and a Qualified Assignee or a
Qualified Subtenant or any New Lease or other agreement entered into between
Landlord and the holder of any Leasehold Mortgage (or between Landlord and the
nominee of any such holder of a Leasehold Mortgage).
All of Landlord's rights and remedies under the Lease and under this
Guaranty are intended to be distinct, separate and cumulative and no such right
and remedy therein or herein mentioned is intended to be in exclusion of or a
waiver of any of the others. No termination of the Lease or repossession or
recovering of the premises demised thereby shall deprive Landlord of any of its
rights and remedies against Guarantor under this Guaranty. This Guaranty shall
apply to the Obligations pursuant to any extension, renewal, amendment,
modification and supplement of or to the Lease as well as to the Obligations
thereunder during the original Term thereof in accordance with the original
provisions thereof.
The Guarantor hereby waives any requirement that the Landlord protect,
secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject
thereto or exhaust any right to take any action against any person or any
collateral (including any rights relating to marshaling of assets). Guarantor
expressly waives: (i) any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
indemnification and contribution until the Obligations have been paid and fully
performed, (ii) any other rights and defenses that are or may become available
to the
2
73
Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 through 2855, inclusive, of the California
Civil Code, as such Sections may be amended, recodified, or replaced from time
to time; (iii) any rights or defenses that Guarantor may have arising out of an
election of remedies by Landlord; and (iv) any other statutory or common law
rights (to the extent that waiver is not prohibited by law) that are
inconsistent with the provisions of this Guaranty.
The Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of
the Lease, regardless of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Obligations, and of any law, regulation or order now or
hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the
rights of the Landlord with respect thereto. The liability of the Guarantor to
the extent herein set forth shall be absolute and unconditional, not subject to
any reduction, limitation, impairment, termination, defense, offset,
counterclaim or recoupment whatsoever (all of which are hereby expressly waived
by the Guarantor) whether by reason of any claim of any character whatsoever,
including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender,
alteration or compromise, or by reason of any liability at any time to the
Guarantor or otherwise, whether based upon any obligations or any other
agreements or otherwise, howsoever arising, whether out of action or inaction or
otherwise and whether resulting from default, willful misconduct, negligence or
otherwise, and without limiting the foregoing irrespective of: (a) any lack of
validity or enforceability of the Lease or of any agreement or instrument
relating thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or
in any other term in respect of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other
amendment or waiver of or consent to Obligations, or any other amendment or
waiver of or consent to any departure from the Lease or any other agreement
relating to any Obligations; (c) any increase in, addition to, exchange or
release of, or nonperfection of any lien on or security interest in, any
collateral or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure
from or failure to enforce any other guarantee, for all or any of the
indebtedness; (d) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, the Tenant in respect of the
Obligations of the Guarantor in respect hereof; (e) the absence of any action
on the part of the Landlord to obtain payment for the Obligations from the
Tenant; (f) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or dissolution, or any
proceeding of the Tenant or the Guarantor, including, without limitation,
rejection of the guaranteed Obligations in such bankruptcy; or (g) the absence
of notice or any delay in any action to enforce any Obligations or to exercise
any right or remedy against the Guarantor or the Tenant, whether hereunder,
under any Obligations or under any agreement or any indulgence, compromise or
extension granted.
Guarantor agrees that in the event Tenant shall become insolvent or
shall be adjudicated a bankrupt, or shall file a petition for reorganization,
arrangement or similar relief under any present or future provisions of the
United States Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law or statute of the United
States or any State thereof, or if such a petition filed by creditors of Tenant
shall be approved by a Court, or if Tenant shall seek a judicial readjustment of
the rights of its creditors under any present or future Federal or State law or
if a receiver of all or part of its property and assets is appointed by any
State or Federal court:
3
74
(a) if the Lease shall be terminated or rejected, or the
obligations of Tenant thereunder shall be modified, Landlord shall have the
option either (i) to require the undersigned, and the undersigned hereby so
agree, to execute and deliver to Landlord a new lease as tenant for the balance
of the term then remaining as provided in the Lease and upon the same terms and
conditions as set forth therein, or (ii) to recover from the undersigned that
which Landlord would be entitled to recover from Tenant under the Lease in the
event of a termination of the Lease by Landlord because of a default by Tenant,
and such shall be recoverable from the undersigned without regard to whether
Landlord is entitled to recover the same from Tenant in any such proceeding; and
(b) if Guarantor has any claims against Tenant upon any
indebtedness of Tenant to Guarantor in any bankruptcy or other proceeding,
Guarantor agrees to subordinate all of Guarantor's rights to any such payments
or distributions to the rights of Landlord or pay any amounts recovered to
Landlord as a credit against the Obligations until the Obligations are fully
paid.
Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that the Tenant or the
Guarantor makes a payment or payments to the Landlord, which payment or payments
or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to the Tenant or the
Guarantor or their respective estate, trustee, receiver or any other party under
any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to
the extent of such payment or repayment, this Guaranty and the advances or part
thereof which have been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be
reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date of such initial
payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.
Tenant is a wholly owned subsidiary of Guarantor as of the date hereof.
If at any time hereafter Tenant is neither (i) a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Guarantor or of an Affiliate; or (ii) directly or indirectly controlled by or
under common control with Guarantor or an Affiliate, and provided Tenant or
Guarantor gives written notice of such fact to Landlord, with reasonable
evidence of the basis on which such determination is made then at all times
thereafter (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof):
(a) Landlord will furnish Guarantor with a copy of any notice
of default given by Landlord to Tenant under the Lease;
(b) Guarantor will not be in default of Guarantors Obligations
hereunder unless and until Landlord shall have furnished Guarantor written
demand for payment hereunder and Guarantor shall have failed to pay sums due
hereunder for more than fifteen (15) days following such demand; and
(c) Following the expiration of the Initial Term and any
Renewal Periods (to the extent the Lease is extended substantially in accordance
with Paragraph 3 of the Lease), Guarantor will be released from liability
hereunder if Landlord and Tenant further
4
75
extend the term of the Lease (other than Tenant's holding over under Paragraph
30 of the Lease).
For purposes of this paragraph, an "Affiliate" shall mean any person or
entity that wholly-owns or controls Guarantor or is wholly-owned or
controlled by Guarantor or is under common-control with Guarantor.
If Landlord and Tenant elect to amend the Lease to materially increase
the monetary obligations of Tenant under the Lease without the consent of
Guarantor, the amendment shall be binding on them and Guarantor's liability
under this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect, but the amendment
shall not be enforceable against Guarantor as guaranteed Obligations if and only
to the extent it would result in an increase in Guarantor's Obligations under
this Guaranty.
This Guaranty shall be legally binding upon Guarantor and its
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Landlord and its
successors and assigns; if Landlord disposes of, sells, transfers, assigns,
hypothecates or otherwise conveys its interest in the Lease, or any part
thereof, "Landlord" as used in this Guaranty, shall include Landlord's
successor. Reference here to Tenant shall be deemed to include Tenant and its
successors and assigns. The word "successor" is used herein in its most
comprehensive sense and includes any assignee, transferee, personal
representative, heir or other person or entity succeeding to the respective
rights or obligations of either party. The terms and provisions of this Guaranty
shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.
Guarantor and Landlord (by its acceptance of this guaranty) hereby
mutually waive trial by jury in connection with any dispute arising hereunder.
Guarantor hereby consents to and submits to the jurisdiction of the
federal and state courts located in the State of California and any action or
suit under this Guaranty by Guarantor shall only be brought in the federal or
state court with appropriate jurisdiction over the subject matter established or
sitting in the State of California. Guarantor shall not raise, in connection
with any action or suit under the Guaranty, and hereby waives any defenses based
on the venue, inconvenience of the forum, lack of personal jurisdiction, the
sufficiency of service of process or the like in any such action or suit brought
in the State of California. Notices to Guarantor hereunder shall be sent by
personal delivery, certified or registered mail with return receipt requested,
or nationally recognized overnight courier service with receipt, or by facsimile
to the following address (any notice delivered by telecopier in accordance with
this paragraph shall be deemed to have been duly given upon
5
76
receipt if concurrently with sending by telecopier receipt is confirmed and a
copy is sent by mail on the same day):
