----- --- ----------
(a) Tenant's Property. Tenant shall pay before delinquency any and
-------- --------
all taxes, assessments, license fees and public charges levied, assessed or
imposed upon or against Tenant's fixtures, equipment, furnishings, furniture,
appliances and personal property installed or located on or within the Premises.
Tenant shall cause said fixtures, equipment, furnishings, furniture, appliances
and personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real
property of Landlord. If any of Tenant's said personal property shall be
assessed with Landlord's real property, Tenant shall pay Landlord the taxes
attributable to Tenant within ten (10) days after receipt of written statement
from Landlord setting forth the Taxes applicable to Tenant's property.
(b) Monthly Payments. All property taxes (as hereinafter defined)
------- --------
levied or assessed against the parcel of land outlined on Exhibit "D" attached
------- -
hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Parcel"), and the
buildings and improvements thereon, which become due or accrued during the term
of this Lease, shall be a Common Area Charge. Landlord shall estimate the amount
of property taxes which will be levied against the Parcel for each year of the
Lease term, and Tenant shall pay each month one-twelfth (1/12th) of its share
thereof in accordance with Paragraph 13 hereof. Landlord's estimate of the
amount of property taxes for each year after the first (1st) year of the Lease
term shall be based on the amount of property taxes levied against the Parcel
for the immediately preceding year. At the end of each year of the Lease term,
Landlord shall determine the amount of Tenant's share of the property taxes
actually levied against the Parcel during such year, and shall reimburse Tenant
for any amounts paid by Tenant in excess of the amount actually owed by Tenant
to Landlord, or in the event the amounts paid by Tenant during said year are
less than the amount actually owed, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon written
demand therefor, the difference between the amount actually owed and the amount
paid.
Tenant's liability hereunder shall be prorated to reflect the commencement
and termination dates of this Lease. In the event the Building and any
improvements installed or construed therein by Tenant or Landlord are valued by
the assessor disproportionately higher than other buildings located on the
Parcel, Tenant's share of the property taxes shall be readjusted upwards
accordingly and Tenant agrees to pay such readjusted share. Such determination
shall be made by Landlord from the respective valuation assigned in the
assessor's work sheet or such other information as may reasonably be available.
Landlord's reasonable determination thereof, in good faith, shall be conclusive.
For the purposes of this Lease, the term "property taxes" means and
includes all taxes, assessments, taxes based on vehicles utilizing parking
areas, taxes based on rental income (other than federal and state income taxes),
Environmental Protection Agency charges, and any other governmental charges,
general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, of any kind and nature
whatsoever, applicable to the Parcel, including, but not limited to, assessments
for public improvements or benefits which heretofore or shall during the term of
this Lease, or any extension thereof, be assessed, levied, imposed upon or
become due and payable and a lien upon the Parcel, or any part thereof, but
excluding franchise, estate, inheritance, succession, capital levy, transfer or
excess profits tax imposed upon Landlord.

(a) Tenant agrees to indemnify and defend Landlord against and hold
Landlord

harmless from any and all claims, causes of action, judgments, obligations or
liabilities and all reasonable expenses incurred in investigating or resisting
the same (including reasonable attorney's fees), on account of, or arising out
of, the condition, use or occupancy of the Premises (excluding such loss or
liability caused by Landlord's active negligence or wilful misconduct). This
Lease is made on the express condition that Landlord shall not be liable for, or
suffer loss by reason of, injury to person or property, from whatever cause
(except Landlord's active negligence or wilful misconduct), in any way connected

without limitation any liability for injury to the person or property of Tenant,
its agents, offices, employees, licensees and invitees.
(b) Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, obtain and keep in force during the
term of this Lease a policy of comprehensive public liability insurance insuring
Landlord and Tenant (and such other persons, firms, or corporations as are
designated by Landlord) against any liability arising out of the condition, use,
or occupancy of the Premises and all areas appurtenant thereto, including
parking areas. Such insurance shall be in an amount of not less than $1,000,000
combined single limit for bodily injury, death or property damage as a result of
any one occurrence. The insurance shall be with companies approved by Landlord,
which approval Landlord agrees not to unreasonably withhold. Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord, prior to possession, a certificate on insurance evidencing
the existence of the policy required hereunder and such certificate shall
certify that the policy (i) names Landlord as an additional insured, and (ii)
insures performance of the indemnity set forth in Paragraph 9(a) above.
(c) Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole expense, obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease, a policy or policies of fire insurance including
a standard "all risk" endorsement together with a sprinkler leakage endorsement

replacement of such items so insured and Landlord shall have no interest in
such insurance.
(d) Tenant shall obtain and carry during the term of this Lease a policy
or policies of worker's compensation insurance and any other employee benefit
insurance respecting the Premises necessary to comply with California law.
(e) The insurance required to be obtained by Tenant pursuant to this

be liable for the full amount of the loss up to and including the total amount
of liability set forth in the declarations without the right of contribution
from any other insurance coverage of Landlord. All insurance required by this
Paragraph shall be in a form satisfactory to Landlord, shall be carried with
companies acceptable to Landlord, and shall specifically provide that such
policies shall not be subject to cancellation or change except after at least
thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord. The policy or policies, or
duly executed certificates for them, together with satisfactory evidence of
payment of the premium thereon, shall be deposited with Landlord (i) prior to
the Commencement Date and (ii) upon renewal of such policies, which shall be
effected not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the term
of such coverage.
-4-
(f) Landlord shall retain the right at any time to review the coverage,
form and amount of the insurance required by the Lease. If in the reasonable
opinion of Landlord, the insurance provisions in the Lease do not provide
adequate protection for Landlord and for members of the public using the
Premises, Landlord may require Tenant to obtain insurance sufficient in
coverage, form and amount to provide adequate protection.
(g) In the event Tenant shall fail from time to time to pay any premiums
required to be paid by Tenant for insurance pursuant to the Xxxxxxxxx 0,
Xxxxxxxx shall be entitled to pay the same on behalf of Tenant and Tenant shall
immediately reimburse to Landlord said amounts plus interest thereon at ten
percent (10%) per annum, as additional rent, upon written demand therefor.
(h) Landlord shall obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease a
policy or policies of insurance covering loss or damage to the Premises, in the
amount of the full replacement value thereof, providing protection against those
perils included within the classification of "all risk" insurance and flood
insurance if available, plus a policy of rental income insurance in the amount
of 100% of 12 months rent (including sums paid as additional rent). The cost of
such insurance for the Parcel, including all buildings and improvements from
time to time located thereon, shall be a Common Area Charge and Tenant shall pay
to Landlord its share of said cost as provided in Paragraph 13 below. If such
insurance cost is increased due to Tenant's use of the Premises, Tenant agrees
to pay to Landlord the full cost of such increase. Tenant shall have no interest
in nor any right to the proceeds of any insurance procured by Landlord covering
the premises.
(i) Each party shall cause each insurance policy obtained by them pursuant
to their obligations under the Lease to provide that the insurance company
issuing said policy waives all right of recovery by way of subrogation against
the other party in connection with any damage covered by any such policy
provided that, such a clause does not prejudice said party's right to recover
under said policy.
10. Utilities. Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, light, heat, power,
---------
electricity, telephone, trash pick-up, sewer charges, and all other services
supplied to or consumed on the Premises. In the event that any of the utility

charges jointly metered with other premises. In addition, the cost of any
utility services supplied to the Common Area of the Building or the Common Area
of the Parcel shall be a Common Area Charge and Tenant shall pay its share of
such cost to Landlord as provided in Paragraph 13 below.
In the event Tenant shall fail from time to time to pay any charges
required to be paid by Tenant for utilities pursuant to this Xxxxxxxxx 00,

Premises and all the remaining improvements of property and eject Tenant and any
one or more of Tenant's subtenants, assignees, or other person or persons
claiming any right under or through Tenant. This Lease may also be terminated by
a judgment specifically providing for termination. Any termination under this
paragraph shall not release Tenant from the payment of any sum then due Landlord

(C) appointment of a receiver in order to protect Landlord's
interest hereunder;
(D) consent to any subletting of the Premises or assignment of
this Lease by Tenant, whether pursuant to provisions hereof concerning

(A) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent which has
been earned at the time of termination; plus
(B) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the
unpaid rent which would have earned after termination until the time of award
exceeds the
-9-
amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably
avoided; plus
(C) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which
the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the
amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and
(D) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for
all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's
obligations under this Lease, or which in the ordinary course of things would be
likely to result therefrom including, without limitation, the following: (i)
expenses for cleaning, repairing or restoring the Premises; (ii) expenses for
altering, remodeling or otherwise improving the Premises for the purpose of
reletting, including installation of Leasehold improvements (whether such
installation be funded by a reduction of rent, direct payment or allowance to
Tenant, or otherwise); (iii) real estate broker's fees, advertising costs and
other expenses of reletting the Premises; (iv) cost of carrying the Premises
such as taxes and insurance premiums thereon, utilities and security
precautions; (v) expenses in retaking possession of the Premises; (vi)
attorney's fees and court costs; (vii) any unamortized real estate brokerage
commission paid in connection with this Lease.
(E) The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred
to in subparagraph (A) and (B) of this paragraph is computed by allowing
interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. The "worth at the time of
award" of the amount referred to in subparagraph (C) of this paragraph is
computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve
Board of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%). The term
"rent" as used in this paragraph shall include all sums required to be paid by
Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease.
18. Destruction. In the event the Premises are damaged or destroyed from
-----------
any peril that is covered by Landlord's insurance policy of the Premises (an
"insured" peril) and the cost to repair such damage or destruction exceeds fifty
percent, (50%) of the then replacement cost of the Premises, then Landlord may,
at its option:
(a) Rebuild or restore the Premises to their condition prior to the
damage or destruction; or
(b) Terminate this Lease.
If Landlord does not give Tenant notice in writing within thirty (30) days
from the destruction of the Premises of its election to either rebuild and
restore them, or to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall be deemed to have
elected to rebuild or restore them, in which event Landlord agrees, at its
expense, promptly to rebuild or restore the Premises to their condition prior to
the damage or destruction. In the event the Premises are damaged or destroyed
from any insured peril to the extent of fifty (50%) percent or less of the then
replacement cost of the Premises, Landlord shall, at Landlords expense, promptly
rebuild or restore the Premises to their condition existing prior to the damage
or destruction, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon commencement of
reconstruction an amount not to exceed FIVE THOUSAND Dollars ($5,000.00), of
---- -------- -----------
any deductible from the insurance policy. If Landlord does not complete the
rebuilding or restoring within ninety (90) days following the date of
destruction (such period of time to be extended for delays caused by the fault
or neglect of Tenant or because of acts of God, acts of public agencies, Labor
disputes, strikes, fires, freight embargos, rainy or stormy weather, inability
to obtain
-10-
materials, supplies or fuels, acts of contractors, or subcontractors, or delay
of the contractors or subcontractors due to such causes or other contingencies
beyond the control of Landlord), then Tenant shall have the right to terminate
this Lease by giving fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Landlord.
Landlord's obligation to rebuild or restore shall not include restoration of
Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment, merchandise, or any improvements,
alterations or additions made by Tenant to the Premises.
In the event that any portion of the Premises is destroyed or damaged by
uninsured peril, Landlord or Tenant may, upon written notice to the other, given
within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction,
elect to terminate this Lease; provided, however, that either party may, within
thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, elect to make any required
repairs and/or restoration at such party's sole cost and expense, in which event
this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, and the party having made such
election to restore and repair shall thereafter diligently proceed with such
repairs and/or restoration.
Unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions, this
Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Tenant hereby expressly waives the
provisions of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, and Section 1933, Subdivision 4 of
the California Civil Code.
