AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:
1. Modification of Existing Premises.
1.1 Suite 2000. Effective as of the date on which Landlord has delivered Suite 2000 to Tenant in the "Tenth Amendment Space Delivery Condition" (as that term is defined in Section 5.1 below) (such delivery date, the "Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date"), Tenant shall lease from Landlord, and Landlord shall lease to Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000. Consequently, effective upon the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date, the Existing Premises shall be increased to include Suite 2000, and Tenant will lease the entire twentieth (20th) floor of the Building. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that such addition of Suite 2000 to the Existing Premises shall, effective as of the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date, increase the size of the Premises then leased by Tenant under the Lease, as hereby amended, to 390,949 rentable square feet of space (364,921 + 26,028 = 390,949), and that Suite 2000 shall be deemed to be part of the Premises for all purposes under the Lease.
The anticipated date of delivery of Suite 2000 to Tenant (i.e., the anticipated Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date) is November 1, 2018. Landlord represents that Suite 2000 is currently leased to the United States of America (the "GSA"), whose lease thereof expires on or before November 1, 2018, and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement date to occur on or before such date. The parties expressly agree and acknowledge that if Landlord is unable to cause the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date to occur on or before November 1, 2018 despite such efforts, then (i) Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for its failure to do so, and (ii) such failure shall not render this Tenth Amendment void or voidable, nor affect the validity of this Tenth Amendment or the obligations of Tenant hereunder. If the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date does not occur for any reason on or before (a) February 1, 2019, then, in addition to Tenant’s other remedies, the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date shall be delayed by one (1) additional day for each day of delay beyond such date or (b) May 1, 2019, then, in addition to Tenant’s other remedies, at Tenant’s election, Tenant may terminate this Tenth Amendment with respect to Suite 2000 upon written notice to Landlord.
1.2 Suites 1600 and 1700. Effective as of the date on which Landlord has delivered Suites 1600 and 1700 to Tenant in the Tenth Amendment Space Delivery Condition (such delivery date, the "Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date"), Tenant shall lease from Landlord, and Landlord shall lease to Tenant, Suites 1600 and 1700. Consequently, effective upon the Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date, the then-existing Premises shall be increased to include Suites 1600 and 1700, and Tenant will lease the entire sixteenth (16th) and the entire seventeenth (17th) floors of the Building. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that such addition of Suites 1600 and 1700 to the then-existing Premises shall, effective as of the Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date, increase the size of the Premises then leased by Tenant under the Lease, as hereby amended, to 442,952 rentable square feet of space (390,949 + 25,973 + 26,030 = 442,952), and that Suites 1600 and 1700 shall be deemed to be part of the Premises for all purposes under the Lease. The anticipated date of delivery of Suites 1600 and 1700 to Tenant (i.e., the anticipated Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date) is February 20, 2019. Landlord represents that Suites 1600 and 1700 are currently leased to the GSA, whose lease thereof expires on or before February 20, 2019, and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date to occur on or before such date. The parties expressly agree and acknowledge that if Landlord is unable to cause the Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date to occur on or before February 20, 2019 despite such efforts, then (i) Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for its failure to do so, and (ii) such failure shall not render this Tenth Amendment void or voidable, nor affect the validity of this Tenth Amendment or the obligations of Tenant hereunder. If the Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date does not occur for any reason on or before (a) May 1, 2019, then, in addition to Tenant’s other remedies, the Suites 1600/1700 Rent Commencement Date shall be delayed by one (1) additional day for each day of delay beyond such date or (b) September 1, 2019, then, in addition to Tenant’s other remedies, at Tenant’s election, Tenant may terminate this Tenth Amendment with respect to Suite 1600 and/or Suite 1700 upon written notice to Landlord.
2. Tenth Amendment Space Term. The term with respect to each suite shall commence on the applicable Lease Commencement Date for such suite, and shall expire coterminously with the Lease Term for the Existing Premises under the Existing Lease (i.e., on September 27, 2023), as the same may be extended (as applicable to each suite, the "Tenth Amendment Space Term").
3. Base Rent.
3.1 Existing Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Existing Lease, as hereby amended, Tenant shall continue to pay Base Rent for the Existing Premises in accordance with the terms of the Existing Lease.
3.2 Suite 2000. Commencing on the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date, and continuing until the last day of the calendar month immediately prior to the calendar month in which the first (1st) anniversary of the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date occurs (subject to the terms of Section 7 below), Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly installments of Base Rent for Suite 2000 in an amount equal to One Hundred Sixty-Nine Thousand One Hundred Eighty-Two and 00/100 Dollars ($169,182.00), which amount was calculated by multiplying an Annual Base Rental Rate of Seventy-Eight and 00/100 Dollars ($78.00) per Rentable Square Foot of Suite 2000 (i.e., 26,028), and dividing the product by twelve (12). On and after the first (1st) anniversary of the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date (or, if the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date is not the first (1st) day of a calendar month, then on and after the first (1st) day of the calendar month in which the first (1st) anniversary of the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date occurs), and thereafter on each anniversary of the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date (or such other date, as the case may be) during the Tenth Amendment Space Term, the Annual Base Rent for Suite 2000 shall be increased by three percent (3%).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Existing Lease or this Tenth Amendment, Suites 1600, 1700 and 2000 shall each be separately metered, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, prior to the applicable Lease Commencement Date to measure electrical consumption at such suite. Tenant shall pay directly to Landlord the actual amount charged to Landlord by the electricity provider for electrical consumption at each suite during the Tenth Amendment Space Term commencing on the applicable Lease Commencement Date, and the costs of electrical consumption of Tenant and all other tenants and occupants of the Project shall not be included in Operating Expenses.
4.3 Tenant's Janitorial Service and Supplies. Landlord shall not be required to provide any janitorial services for Suite 1600, 1700 or 2000, and Tenant shall be solely responsible for performing all janitorial services and other cleaning of each suite as appropriate to maintain such suite in a manner consistent with a first-class office project, and otherwise in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, Section 1 of the Seventh Amendment, as though such suite was originally part of the "Premises" described in such Seventh Amendment (including, without limitation, the requirements that Tenant's janitors (x) are union labor in compliance with the then existing master labor agreements, and (y) have appropriate insurance coverage approved by Landlord in advance prior to any entry into any of the Tenth Amendment Suites by Tenant's janitors).
5. Condition of Tenth Amendment Suites.
5.1 Tenant shall accept each of Suite 1600, 1700, and 2000 vacant, broom clean and otherwise in its then existing, "as-is" condition, and except as expressly set forth in this Tenth Amendment and the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B, Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any other improvement work or services related to the improvement of any suite or any portion thereof, and Landlord shall not be obligated to pay any tenant improvement allowance, drawing contribution, or other allowance or fee in connection with any suite. For purposes of Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges, that neither the Existing Premises nor any portion of Suite 1600, 1700 or 2000 have undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall deliver each of Suite 1600, 1700 and 2000 to Tenant vacant, free of Hazardous Substances, with the Building Systems servicing such suite in good working order and condition, and otherwise in its presently existing, "as-is" condition (the "Tenth Amendment Space Delivery Condition"). If it is determined that (i) any such suite was not free of Hazardous Substances as of the applicable Lease Commencement Date, or (ii) that any of the Building Systems were not in good working order and condition as of the applicable Lease Commencement Date (either such set of circumstances as set forth in items (i) or (ii), above, to be known as a "Correction Event"), Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any damages, but as Tenant’s sole remedy, Landlord, at no cost to Tenant, shall promptly commence such work or take such other action as may be necessary to remove the Hazardous Substances, or place the Building Systems in good working order and condition, as the case may be, and shall thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion.
5.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, any suite or any portion thereof as a result of such Landlord work or action taken pursuant to this Section 5 for more than five (5) consecutive business days (the "Correction Period"), then the Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, and Tenant’s obligation to pay for parking (to the extent not utilized by Tenant), in each case with respect to such suite, shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after the expiration of the later of the Correction Period and the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement
-4-
Date or Suites 1600/1700 Rent Commencement Date, as applicable, for such time that Tenant continues to be prevented from using, and does not use for the normal conduct of Tenant’s business or performance of the Tenant Improvements, the applicable suite or any portion thereof. If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of the affected suite during such period, the Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, and Tenant’s obligation to pay for parking (to the extent not utilized by Tenant) allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the proportion that the rentable area of such reoccupied portion of the suite bears to the total rentable area of such suite, shall be payable by Tenant from the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the suite, subject to the terms of this Tenth Amendment. Such right to xxxxx Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy for rent abatement at law or in equity for a Correction Event. Except as expressly provided in this Section 5 or elsewhere in the Lease, nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Tenant is excused from paying Rent due under the Lease.
6. Parking. Effective as of the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date, subject to availability, Tenant shall have the right to rent from Landlord up to five (5) unreserved parking passes on a monthly basis throughout the Tenth Amendment Space Term, which parking passes (the "Suite 2000 Parking Passes") shall pertain to the Property parking facility. Additionally, effective as of the Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date, subject to availability, Tenant shall have the right to rent from Landlord up to ten (10) unreserved parking passes on a monthly basis throughout the Tenth Amendment Space Term, which parking passes (the "Suites 1600/1700 Parking Passes") shall pertain to the Property parking facility. Tenant shall pay to Landlord for any Suite 2000 Parking Passes and the Suite 1600/1700 Parking Passes (collectively, the "Tenth Amendment Parking Passes") on a monthly basis the prevailing rate charged from time to time at the location of such parking passes (which rate is currently Two Hundred Seventy-Five and 00/100 Dollars ($275.00) per unreserved parking pass per month). Except as expressly set forth in this Section 6, Tenant shall lease any Tenth Amendment Parking Passes in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and provisions of Article 28 of the Original Lease.
7. Beneficial Occupancy.
7.1 Beneficial Occupancy of Suite 2000. Subject to the terms of this Section 7.1, during the period commencing on the date that is three (3) months after the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date and ending on the date that is nine (9) months after the Suite 2000 Lease Commencement Date (the "Beneficial Occupancy Period"), Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Base Rent or Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses attributable to Suite 2000, provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be obligated to pay directly to Landlord the actual amount charged to Landlord by the electricity and any other utility provider for such electrical and other utility consumption at Suite 2000 during the Beneficial Occupancy Period. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that such abated Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses (the "Build-Out Rent Abatement") has been granted to Tenant as additional consideration for entering into this Tenth Amendment, and for agreeing to pay the Rent and performing the terms and conditions otherwise required under the Lease. If Tenant shall be in default under the Lease, and shall fail to cure such default within the notice and cure period, if any, permitted for cure pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease, or if the Lease is terminated for any reason other than Landlord's breach of the Lease, then the dollar amount of the unapplied portion of the Build-Out Rent Abatement as of the date of such default or termination, as the case may be, shall be converted to a credit to be applied to the Base Rent applicable at the end of the Build-Out Rent Abatement as of the date of such default or termination, as the case may be, shall be converted to a credit to be applied to the Base Rent applicable at the end of the Tenth Amendment Space Term, and Tenant shall immediately be obligated to begin paying Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for Suite 2000 in full. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that Tenant shall have the right to continue occupying Suite 2000 during the Beneficial Occupancy Period, for purposes of conducting Tenant's business therein, provided that (i) Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of any such occupancy of Suite 2000 or any portion(s) thereof for the conduct of Tenant's business, (ii) a certificate of occupancy, temporary certificate of occupancy, or its legal equivalent shall have been issued by the appropriate governmental authorities for Suite 2000 to be occupied for the conduct of Tenant's business to the extent required to permit such occupancy, (iii) Tenant has delivered to Landlord satisfactory evidence of the insurance coverage required to be carried by Tenant in accordance with Article 10 of the Original Lease, and (iv) except as provided in this Section 7.1, all of the terms and conditions of the Lease shall apply during such Beneficial Occupancy Period.
7.2 Beneficial Occupancy of Suites 1600/1700. Subject to the terms of this Section 7.2, if the "Tenant Improvements" (as that term is defined in the Tenant Work Letter) are substantially completed prior to the Suites 1600/1700 Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall have the right thereafter to occupy all or any portion of Suites 1600 and 1700 prior to the Suites 1600/1700 Rent Commencement Date for the conduct of Tenant's business; provided that (i) Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of any occupancy of Suites 1600 and 1700 (or any portion(s) thereof) for the conduct of Tenant's business, (ii) a temporary certificate of occupancy or final permit sign-off, shall have been issued by the appropriate governmental authorities for Suites 1600 and 1700 to be occupied for the conduct of Tenant's business to the extent required to permit such occupancy of such portion(s) of Suites 1600 and 1700, (iii) Tenant has delivered to Landlord satisfactory evidence of the insurance coverage required to be
-5-
carried by Tenant in accordance with Article 10 of the Original Lease, and (iv) except as provided hereinbelow, all of the terms and conditions of the Lease shall apply as though the Suites 1600/1700 Rent Commencement Date had occurred (although the Suites 1600/1700 Rent Commencement Date shall not actually occur until the occurrence of the same pursuant to the terms of Section 3.3, above) upon Tenant's commencement of the conduct of its business in Suites 1600 and 1700; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Base Rent or Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses attributable to the portion(s) of Suites 1600 and 1700 during any such period prior to the Suites 1600/1700 Rent Commencement Date that Tenant occupies such portion(s), but provided, further, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be obligated to pay directly to Landlord the actual amount charged to Landlord by the electricity and any other utility provider for such electrical and other utility consumption at Suites 1600 and 1700 during the construction of the Tenant Improvements and any beneficial occupancy period.
8. Letter of Credit. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that, in accordance with Article 21 of the Original Lease, Tenant previously delivered a L-C in the amount of Nine Million Four Hundred Sixty-Seven Thousand Seven Hundred and Thirty-Eight Dollars ($9,467,738.00) (the "Existing L-C") as protection for the full faith and performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under the Lease and for all losses and damages Landlord may suffer (or which Landlord reasonably estimates that it may suffer) as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under the Lease as described in Article 21 of the Original Lease.
9. Invalidity of Provisions. If any provision of this Tenth Amendment is found to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity or unenforceability of any such provision shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof.

TENANT WORK LETTER
This Tenant Work Letter shall set forth the terms and conditions relating to the construction of Suites 1600, 1700 and 2000 (the "Tenth Amendment Suites"). This Tenant Work Letter is essentially organized chronologically and addresses the issues of the construction of the Tenth Amendment Suites, in sequence, as such issues will arise during the actual construction of the Tenth Amendment Suites. All references in this Tenant Work Letter to Articles or Sections of "this Lease" shall mean the relevant portions of Articles 1 through 29 of the Original Lease, as the same may have been amended, and all references to Sections of "this Amendment" shall mean the relevant portions of Sections 1 through 16 of the Tenth Amendment to which this Tenant Work Letter is attached as Exhibit B, and all references in this Tenant Work Letter to Sections of "this Tenant Work Letter" shall mean the relevant portions of Sections 1 through 5 of this Tenant Work Letter. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Lease. All references in this Tenant Work Letter to the "Premises" shall mean the Tenth Amendment Suites.
SECTION 1
BASE, SHELL AND CORE; DELIVERY CONDITION; COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
1.1 Base, Shell and Core. Landlord has constructed, at its sole cost and expense, the base, shell, and core (i) of the Premises and (ii) of the floor of the Building on which the Premises is located (collectively, the "Base, Shell, and Core"). The Base, Shell and Core shall be delivered by Landlord to Tenant in their presently existing, "as-is" condition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Tenant Work Letter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Building Systems servicing each portion of the Premises shall be in good working order and condition as of the date Landlord delivers such portion of the Premises to Tenant.
1.2 Delivery Condition. Landlord shall, at Landlord's sole cost, complete the work items set forth in Schedule 1 attached hereto (collectively, the "Landlord Work"), as applicable to each floor of the Premises, on or before the dates set forth in Schedule 1 with respect to each work item, including, to the extent applicable, any work items that are required to be completed by Landlord prior to the applicable Lease or Rent Commencement Date. Upon the completion of the Landlord Work required in any particular portion of the Premises (and if applicable, the removal of any Hazardous Substances therefrom in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence), such portion shall be deemed to be in the applicable "Tenth Amendment Space Delivery Condition" for purposes of the Lease (including, without limitation, Section 5 of the Tenth Amendment). Landlord shall perform the Landlord Work in a good and workmanlike manner, and, to the extent necessary for Landlord to pull any necessary construction permits or for Tenant to legally occupy the Premises for the Permitted Use, in accordance with Applicable Laws, and in accordance with the approved plans therefor and in a manner that will not unreasonably and materially interfere with Tenant's completion of the Tenant Improvements. Landlord and Tenant shall mutually cooperate in good faith with each other in connection with the concurrent construction and completion of the Landlord Work and the Tenant Improvements.
1.3 Compliance with Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Tenant Work Letter or the Existing Lease, as amended by the Tenth Amendment, (a) Landlord shall be solely responsible for all costs related to the presence of existing Hazardous Substances on or about the Premises to the extent required for Tenant’s legal occupancy of the Premises or to perform the Tenant Improvement work; (b) to the extent required in order for Tenant to legally occupy the Premises, or in order to pull a construction permit for Tenant Improvement work for normal and customary office improvements in the SOMA area, assuming an office occupancy density no greater than 1 person per 125 RSF (the "Density Standard"), or to otherwise
EXHIBIT B
-1-
comply with requirements of the applicable permitting authority (except to the extent such compliance is triggered by Tenant’s particular use of the Premises or Tenant’s construction of Tenant Improvements that are not normal and customary office improvements in the SOMA area or above the Density Standard), Landlord shall be solely responsible for all costs to bring (i) the non-tenant portions of the Building and project outside of the Premises, including Common Area restrooms and Common Area elevator lobbies and Building Systems, (ii) all structural portions of the Premises and the portions of the Building Systems inside the Premises (such as the main loop of the sprinkler system and the main HVAC trunk/loop), and (iii) all emergency evacuation stairways, into compliance with Applicable Laws; and (c) the date Tenant is obligated to commence paying rent for the Premises shall be extended by one (1) day for each day Tenant’s substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements is delayed due to a "Landlord Delay" or "Tenant Force Majeure Delay," as those terms are defined below. Landlord hereby acknowledges that, to the extent allowed by Applicable Law, Tenant may build-out and occupy the Premises at a density level greater than the Density Standard; provided that Tenant shall pay for any modifications to the Base Building to the extent such modification would not have been required had the build-out or occupancy met the Density Standard. As used herein, "Tenant Force Majeure Delay" shall mean acts of God, casualties, natural disasters, strikes, war, terrorist attacks, lockouts, labor disputes or civil commotion. As used herein, "Landlord Delay" shall mean an actual delay resulting from the acts or omissions of Landlord including, but not limited to (i) failure of Landlord to timely approve or disapprove any Construction Documents; (ii) unreasonable and material interference by Landlord, its agents or contractors with the completion of the Tenant Improvements and which objectively preclude construction of tenant improvements in the Building; and (iii) delays due to the acts or failures to act of Landlord, its agents or contractors with respect to payment of the Tenant Improvement Allowance. If Tenant contends that a Landlord Delay has occurred, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing (the "Delay Notice") of the event which constitutes such Landlord Delay. If the actions or inactions or circumstances described in the Delay Notice qualify as a Landlord Delay, and are not cured by Landlord within one (1) business day after Tenant's delivery of the Delay Notice, then a Landlord Delay shall be deemed to have occurred.
SECTION 2
TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
2.1 Tenant Improvement Allowance. Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time tenant improvement allowance (the "Tenant Improvement Allowance") in the amount of $42.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises for the costs relating to the initial design and construction of Tenant's improvements, which, except as provided in Section 2.2.1.10 below, are permanently affixed to the Premises (the "Tenant Improvements"). In no event shall Landlord be obligated to make disbursements pursuant to this Tenant Work Letter in a total amount which exceeds the Tenant Improvement Allowance. In the event that the Tenant Improvement Allowance is not fully utilized and reimbursement requested by Tenant within one (1) year after the Suites 1600/1700 Lease Commencement Date, then such unused amounts shall revert to Landlord, and Tenant shall have no further rights with respect thereto. Any Tenant Improvements that require the use of Building risers, raceways, shafts and/or conduits, shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable rules, regulations, and restrictions, including the requirement that any cabling vender to the extent performing work in the riser must be reasonably approved by Landlord, and that the amount and location of any such cabling must be reasonably approved by Landlord, subject to the terms of Section 6.1.7 of the Original Lease. All Tenant Improvements for which the Tenant Improvement Allowance has been used shall be deemed Landlord's property under the terms of the Lease; provided, however, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant prior to the end of the Lease Term, or given following any earlier termination of this Lease, require Tenant, at Tenant's expense, to remove any Tenant Improvements and to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and return the affected portion of the Premises to their condition existing prior to the installment of such Tenant Improvements; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) upon request by Tenant at the time of Tenant's request for Landlord's approval of the "Final Working Drawings," as that term is defined in Section 3.3 of this Tenant Work Letter, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the Tenant Improvements will be required to be removed pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.1, and (ii) Tenant's removal and restoration obligation with respect to the Tenant Improvements shall be subject to the terms of Section 8.5 of the Original Lease, including, without limitation, any restrictions on Landlord's right to require Tenant's removal of specific improvements.

2.2 Disbursement of the Tenant Improvement Allowance.
2.2.1 Tenant Improvement Allowance Items. Except as otherwise set forth in this Tenant Work Letter, the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be disbursed by Landlord only for the following items and costs (collectively, the "Tenant Improvement Allowance Items"):
2.2.1.1 Payment of the fees of the "Architect" and the "Engineers" (as those terms are defined in Section 3.1 of this Tenant Work Letter), which fees shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Tenant Work Letter, not exceed an aggregate amount equal to $3.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises, and Tenant’s construction manager;
2.2.1.2 The payment of plan check, permit and license fees relating to construction of the Tenant Improvements;
2.2.1.3 The cost of construction of the Tenant Improvements, including, without limitation, testing and inspection costs, hoisting and trash removal costs, and contractors' fees and general conditions;
2.2.1.4 The cost of any changes in the Base Building when such changes are required by the Construction Documents (including if such changes are due to the fact that such work is prepared on an unoccupied basis), such cost to include all direct architectural and/or engineering fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith;
2.2.1.5 The cost of any changes to the Construction Documents or Tenant Improvements required by all applicable building codes (the "Code");
2.2.1.6 The cost of connection of the Premises to the Building's energy management systems;
2.2.1.7 The cost of any demolition work on any of the Tenth Amendment Suites that Tenant requests Landlord perform on Tenant's behalf, in an amount agreed upon in writing by Tenant and Landlord prior to Landlord’s commencement of such work;
2.2.1.8 The cost of the "Coordination Fee," as that term is defined in Section 4.2.2 of this Tenant Work Letter;
2.2.1.9 Sales and use taxes and Title 24 fees; and
2.2.1.10 The cost of FF&E, cabling and moving costs, not to exceed an aggregate amount equal to $3.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises.
2.2.2 Disbursement of Tenant Improvement Allowance. During the construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall make monthly disbursements of the Tenant Improvement Allowance for Tenant Improvement Allowance Items for the benefit of Tenant and shall authorize the release of monies for the benefit of Tenant as follows.
EXHIBIT B
-3-
2.2.2.1 Monthly Disbursements. Once each calendar month during the construction of the Tenant Improvements (or such other date as Landlord may designate), Tenant may deliver to Landlord: (i) a request for payment of the "Contractor," as that term is defined in Section 4.1 of this Tenant Work Letter, approved by Tenant, in a form to be provided by Landlord, showing the schedule, by trade, of percentage of completion of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, detailing the portion of the work completed and the portion not completed; (ii) invoices from all of "Tenant's Agents," as that term is defined in Section 4.1.2 of this Tenant Work Letter, for labor rendered and materials delivered to the Premises; (iii) executed conditional mechanic's lien releases from all of Tenant's Agents which shall comply with the appropriate provisions, as reasonably determined by Landlord, of California Civil Code Sections 8132, 8134, 8136 and 8138; and (iv) all other information reasonably requested by Landlord. Within thirty (30) days thereafter, Landlord shall deliver a check to Tenant made payable to Tenant in payment of the lesser of: (A) the amounts so requested by Tenant, as set forth in this Section 2.2.2.1, above, and (B) the balance of any remaining available portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, provided that Landlord does not dispute any request for payment based on non-compliance of any work with the "Approved Working Drawings," as that term is defined in Section 3.4 below, or due to any substandard work. Landlord's payment of such amounts shall not be deemed Landlord's approval or acceptance of the work furnished or materials supplied as set forth in Tenant's payment request. Tenant hereby agrees to withhold a ten percent (10%) retention (the aggregate amount of such retentions to be known as the "Final Retention") of all amounts paid to Contractor.
2.2.2.2 Final Retention. Tenant shall not pay Contractor the Final Retention until the completion of construction of the Premises, including all of the following: (i) Tenant delivers to Landlord properly executed mechanics lien releases in compliance with both California Civil Code Section 8134 and either Section 8136 or Section 8138, (ii) Landlord has determined that no substandard work exists which adversely affects the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air conditioning, life-safety or other systems of the Building, the curtain wall of the Building, the structure or exterior appearance of the Building, or any other tenant's use of such other tenant's leased premises in the Building, (iii) Architect delivers to Landlord a certificate, in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, certifying that the construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises has been substantially completed, and (iv) Tenant delivers to Landlord two (2) hard copies and one (1) electronic copy of the "Close-Out Package" (as that term is defined in Section 4.3 below).
2.2.2.3 Other Terms. Landlord shall only be obligated to make disbursements from the Tenant Improvement Allowance to the extent costs are incurred by Tenant for Tenant Improvement Allowance Items. All Tenant Improvement Allowance Items for which the Tenant Improvement Allowance has been made available shall be deemed Landlord's property under the terms of this Lease.
2.3 Standard Tenant Improvement Package. Landlord has established specifications (the "Specifications") for the Building standard components to be used in the construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises (collectively, the "Standard Improvement Package"), which Specifications have been provided to Tenant by Landlord. The quality of Tenant Improvements shall be equal to or of greater quality than the quality of the Specifications, provided that the Tenant Improvements shall comply with certain Specifications as reasonably designated by Landlord. The parties hereby agree and acknowledge that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease or this Tenant Work Letter, to the extent any Tenant Improvements do not comply with the Specifications designated by Landlord, the maintenance and repair of such Tenant Improvements shall be the responsibility of Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
EXHIBIT B
-4-
2.4 Failure to Disburse Tenant Improvement Allowance. If Landlord fails to timely fulfill its obligation to fund any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall be entitled to deliver notice (the "Payment Notice") thereof to Landlord and to any mortgage or trust deed holder of the Building whose identity and address have been previously provided to Tenant. If Landlord still fails to fulfill any such obligation within twenty (20) business days after Landlord's receipt of the Payment Notice from Tenant and if Landlord fails to deliver notice to Tenant within such twenty (20) business day period explaining Landlord's proper reasons that Landlord believes that the amounts described in Tenant's Payment Notice are not due and payable by Landlord ("Refusal Notice"), Tenant shall be entitled to offset the amount so owed to Tenant by Landlord but not paid by Landlord (or if Landlord delivers a Refusal Notice but only with respect to a portion of the amount set forth in the Payment Notice and Landlord fails to pay such undisputed amount as required by the next succeeding sentence, the undisputed amount so owed to Tenant) from the last day of such 20-business day period until the date of offset, against Tenant's next obligations to pay Rent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees that if Landlord delivers a Refusal Notice disputing a portion of the amount set forth in Tenant's Payment Notice, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, concurrently with the delivery of the Refusal Notice, the undisputed portion of the amount set forth in the Payment Notice. However, if Tenant is in default under Section 19.1.1 of the Original Lease at the time that such offset would otherwise be applicable, Tenant shall not be entitled to such offset until such default is cured. If Landlord delivers a Refusal Notice, and if Landlord and Tenant are not able to agree on the disputed amounts to be so paid by Landlord, if any, within ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of a Refusal Notice, Tenant may submit such dispute to arbitration in accordance with the American Arbitration Association. If Tenant prevails in any such arbitration, Tenant shall be entitled to apply such award as a credit against Tenant's obligations to pay Rent.
SECTION 3
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
3.1 Selection of Architect/Construction Documents. Tenant shall retain an architect/space planner reasonably approved by Landlord (the "Architect") to prepare the "Construction Documents," as that term is defined in this Section 3.1. Tenant shall retain engineering consultants reasonably approved by Landlord (the "Engineers") to prepare all plans and engineering working drawings relating to the structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, lifesafety, and sprinkler work in the Premises, which work is not part of the Base Building; provided, however, Tenant hereby agrees and shall be required to hire the contractor directed by Landlord for fire-life-safety work and DDC for HVAC controls; provided that Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such contractors to charge a competitive market price. The plans and drawings to be prepared by Architect and the Engineers hereunder shall be known collectively as the "Construction Documents." Tenant shall be required to include in its contracts with the Architect and the Engineers a provision which requires ownership of all Construction Documents to be transferred to Tenant upon the substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements and Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a non-exclusive right to use such Construction Documents, including, without limitation, a right to make copies thereof. All Construction Documents shall comply with the drawing format and specifications determined by Landlord, and shall be subject to Landlord's approval. Tenant and Architect shall verify, in the field, the dimensions and conditions as shown on the relevant portions of the base building plans, and Tenant and Architect shall be solely responsible for the same, and Landlord shall have no responsibility in connection therewith. Landlord's review of the Construction Documents as set forth in this Section 3, shall be for its sole purpose and shall not imply Landlord's review of the same, or obligate Landlord to review the same, for quality, design, Code compliance or other like matters. Accordingly, notwithstanding that any Construction Documents are reviewed by Landlord or its space planner, architect, engineers and consultants, and notwithstanding any advice or assistance which may be rendered to Tenant by Landlord or Landlord's space planner, architect, engineers, and consultants, Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever in connection therewith and shall not be responsible for any omissions or errors contained in the Construction Documents, and Tenant's waiver and indemnity set forth in this Lease shall specifically apply to the Construction Documents.

3.2 Final Space Plan. Tenant shall supply Landlord with four (4) copies of its concept design drawings for the Premises before any architectural working drawings or engineering drawings have been commenced. The concept design drawings (the "Final Space Plan") shall include a layout and designation of all offices, rooms and other partitioning, their intended use, and equipment to be contained therein. Landlord may request clarification or more specific drawings for special use items not included in the Final Space Plan. Landlord shall advise Tenant within five (5) business days after Landlord's receipt of the Final Space Plan for the Premises if the same is approved, or, if the Final Space Plan is not reasonably satisfactory or is incomplete in any respect, disapproved, in which event Landlord shall include in its notice of disapproval a reasonably detailed explanation as to which items are not satisfactory or complete and the reason(s) therefor. If Tenant is so advised, Tenant shall promptly cause the Final Space Plan to be revised to correct any deficiencies or other matters Landlord may reasonably require.
3.3 Final Working Drawings. After the Final Space Plan has been approved by Landlord, Tenant shall supply the Engineers with a complete listing of standard and non-standard equipment and specifications, including, without limitation, B.T.U. calculations, electrical requirements and special electrical receptacle requirements for the Premises, to enable the Engineers and the Architect to complete the "Final Working Drawings" (as that term is defined below) in the manner as set forth below. Upon the approval of the Final Space Plan by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall promptly cause the Architect and the Engineers to complete the architectural and engineering drawings for the Premises, and Architect shall compile a fully coordinated set of architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing working drawings in a form which is complete to allow subcontractors to bid on the work and to obtain all applicable permits, commonly referred to as construction documents (collectively, the "Final Working Drawings") and shall submit the same to Landlord for Landlord's approval. Tenant shall supply Landlord with four (4) copies of such Final Working Drawings. Landlord shall advise Tenant within five (5) business days after Landlord's receipt of the Final Working Drawings for the Premises if the same are approved, or, if the Final Working Drawings are not reasonably satisfactory or are incomplete in any respect, disapproved, in which event Landlord shall include in its notice of disapproval a reasonably detailed explanation as to which items are not satisfactory or complete and the reason(s) therefor. If Tenant is so advised, Tenant shall immediately revise the Final Working Drawings in accordance with such review and any disapproval of Landlord in connection therewith.
3.4 Approved Working Drawings. The Final Working Drawings shall be approved by Landlord (the "Approved Working Drawings") prior to the submission of the same to the appropriate municipal authorities for all applicable building permits (the "Permits") and commencement of construction of the Premises by Tenant.; provided, however, at Tenant’s election and at Tenant's risk with respect to any subsequent changes that may be required by Landlord in accordance with this Tenant Work Letter, Tenant may submit the Final Working Drawings to the appropriate municipal authorities for Permits concurrently with Landlord’s review thereof. After approval by Landlord of the Final Working Drawings, Tenant shall submit such Approved Working Drawings for the Permits. Tenant hereby agrees that neither Landlord nor Landlord's consultants shall be responsible for obtaining any building permit for the Tenant Improvements or certificate of occupancy for the Premises and that obtaining the same shall be Tenant's responsibility; provided, however, that Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant in executing permit applications and performing other ministerial acts reasonably necessary to enable Tenant to obtain any such permit or certificate of occupancy. No material changes, modifications or alterations in the Approved Working Drawings may be made without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord shall provide any approvals and take any actions required under this Tenant Work Letter within the time periods specified herein, or, if no time period is specified, then within five (5) business days. Landlord’s failure to timely respond shall be deemed a Landlord Delay, subject to the terms of Section 1.3, above.

SECTION 4
CONSTRUCTION OF THE TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
4.1 Tenant's Selection of Contractors.
4.1.1 The Contractor. Tenant shall retain a licensed general contractor, approved in advance by Landlord ("Contractor"), to construct the Tenant Improvements. Landlord's approval of the Contractor shall not be unreasonably withheld.
4.1.2 Tenant's Agents. All subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers used by Tenant, together with the Contractor, shall be known collectively as "Tenant's Agents."
4.2 Construction of Tenant Improvements by Tenant's Agents.
4.2.1 Construction Contract; Cost Budget. Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant's construction contract and general conditions with Contractor (the "Contract") shall contain commercially reasonably warranties and indemnifications that inure to Landlord's benefit. Prior to the commencement of the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and after Tenant has accepted all bids for the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a detailed breakdown, by trade, of the final costs to be incurred or which have been incurred, as set forth more particularly in Sections 2.2.1.1 through 2.2.1.13, above, in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements to be performed by or at the direction of Tenant or the Contractor, which costs form a basis for the amount of the Contract (the "Final Costs"). Prior to the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall identify the amount (the "Over-Allowance Amount") equal to the difference between the amount of the Final Costs and the amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (less any portion thereof already disbursed by Landlord, or in the process of being disbursed by Landlord, on or before the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements). In the event that the Final Costs are greater than the amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (the "Over-Allowance Amount"), then Tenant shall pay thirty percent (30%) of each amount requested by the Contractor or otherwise to be disbursed under this Tenant Work Letter, and such payments by Tenant (the "Over-Allowance Payments") shall be a condition to Landlord's obligation to pay any amounts from the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Landlord shall pay seventy percent (70%) of each amount requested by the Contractor or otherwise to be disbursed under this Tenant Work Letter, until the Tenant Improvement Allowance has been paid. Once the entire Tenant Improvement Allowance has been paid by Landlord, Tenant shall thereafter pay one hundred percent (100%) of each amount requested by the Contractor or otherwise to be disbursed under this Tenant Work Letter. In connection with any payment of the Over-Allowance Amount made by Tenant pursuant to this Section 4.2.1, Tenant shall provide Landlord with the documents described in Sections 2.2.2.1(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Tenant Work Letter, above, for Landlord's approval, prior to Tenant paying such costs. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Tenant Work Letter to the contrary, construction of the Tenant Improvements shall not commence until (a) Landlord has approved the Contract, and (b) Tenant has procured and delivered to Landlord a copy of all Permits for the applicable Tenant Improvements.
4.2.2 Tenant's Agents.
4.2.2.1 Landlord's General Conditions for Tenant's Agents and Tenant Improvement Work. Tenant's and Tenant's Agent's construction of the Tenant Improvements shall comply with the following: (i) the Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the Approved Working Drawings, subject to minor field adjustments; (ii) Landlord's reasonable rules and regulations for the construction of improvements in the Building, a copy of which have been provided to Tenant, (iii) Tenant's Agents shall submit schedules of all work relating to the Tenant's Improvements to Contractor and Contractor shall, within five (5) business days of receipt thereof, inform Tenant's Agents of any changes which are necessary
EXHIBIT B
-7-
thereto, and Tenant's Agents shall adhere to such corrected schedule; and (iv) Tenant shall abide by all reasonable rules made by Landlord's Building manager with respect to the use of freight, loading dock and service elevators, storage of materials, coordination of work with the contractors of other tenants, and any other matter in connection with this Tenant Work Letter, including, without limitation, the construction of the Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall pay a logistical coordination fee (the "Coordination Fee") to Landlord in an amount equal to $1.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises, which Coordination Fee shall be for services relating to the coordination of the construction of the Tenant Improvements.
4.2.2.2 Indemnity. Tenant's indemnity of Landlord as set forth in the Existing Lease shall also apply with respect to any and all costs, losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way to any act or omission of Tenant or Tenant's Agents, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or in connection with Tenant's non-payment of any amount arising out of the Tenant Improvements and/or Tenant's disapproval of all or any portion of any request for payment. The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to claims caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its member partners, shareholders, officers, directors, agents, employees, and/or contractors, or Landlord’s violation of this Lease. Landlord's indemnity obligations as set forth in the Lease shall apply with respect to the Landlord Work, except to the extent arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its member partners, shareholders, officers, directors, agents, employees, and/or contractors, or Tenant’s violation of this Lease.
4.2.2.3 Requirements of Tenant's Agents. Each of Tenant's Agents shall guarantee to Tenant and for the benefit of Landlord that the portion of the Tenant Improvements for which it is responsible shall be free from any defects in workmanship and materials for a period of not less than one (1) year from the date of completion thereof. Each of Tenant's Agents shall be responsible for the replacement or repair, without additional charge, of all work done or furnished in accordance with its contract that shall become defective within one (1) year after the completion of the work performed by such contractor or subcontractors. The correction of such work shall include, without additional charge, the cost of correcting all or any part of the Tenant Improvements, and/or the Building and/or common areas that may be damaged or disturbed thereby. All such warranties or guarantees as to materials or workmanship of or with respect to the Tenant Improvements shall be contained in the Contract or subcontract and shall be written such that such guarantees or warranties shall inure to the benefit of both Landlord and Tenant, as their respective interests may appear, and can be directly enforced by either. To the extent reasonably necessary, Tenant covenants to give to Landlord any assignment or other assurances which may be necessary to effect such right of direct enforcement.
4.2.2.4 Insurance Requirements.
4.2.2.4.1 General Coverages. All of Tenant's Agents (except materialmen and suppliers) shall carry worker's compensation insurance covering all of their respective employees, and shall also carry public liability insurance, including property damage, all with limits, in form and with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant as set forth in this Lease.
4.2.2.4.2 Special Coverages. Tenant shall carry "Builder's All Risk" insurance in an amount approved by Landlord covering the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and such other insurance as Landlord may require, it being understood and agreed that the Tenant Improvements shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to this Lease immediately upon completion thereof. Such insurance shall be in amounts and shall include such extended coverage endorsements as may be reasonably required by Landlord, and in form and with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant as set forth in this Lease.
EXHIBIT B
-8-
4.2.2.4.3 General Terms. Certificates for all insurance carried pursuant to this Section 4.2.2.4 shall be delivered to Landlord before the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements and before the Contractor's equipment is moved onto the site. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord in the event any policy of insurance carried by Tenant is cancelled or the coverage materially changed. Tenant's Contractor and subcontractors shall maintain all of the foregoing insurance coverage in force until the Tenant Improvements are fully completed and accepted by Landlord, except for any Products and Completed Operation Coverage insurance required by Landlord, which is to be maintained for three (3) years following completion of the work and acceptance by Landlord and Tenant. All policies carried under this Section 4.2.2.4 shall insure Landlord and Tenant, as their interests may appear. All insurance, except Workers' Compensation, maintained by Tenant's Agents shall preclude subrogation claims by the insurer against anyone insured thereunder. Such insurance shall provide that it is primary insurance as respects the owner and that any other insurance maintained by owner is excess and noncontributing with the insurance required hereunder. The requirements for the foregoing insurance shall not derogate from the provisions for indemnification of Landlord by Tenant under Section 4.2.2.2 of this Tenant Work Letter.
4.2.3 Governmental Compliance. The Tenant Improvements shall comply in all respects with the following: (i) the Code and other state, federal, city or quasi-governmental laws, codes, ordinances and regulations, as each may apply according to the rulings of the controlling public official, agent or other person; (ii) applicable standards of the American Insurance Association (formerly, the National Board of Fire Underwriters) and the National Electrical Code; and (iii) building material manufacturer's specifications.
4.2.4 Inspection by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Tenant Improvements at all times, provided however, that Landlord's failure to inspect the Tenant Improvements shall in no event constitute a waiver of any of Landlord's rights hereunder nor shall Landlord's inspection of the Tenant Improvements constitute Landlord's approval of the same. Should Landlord reasonably disapprove any portion of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such disapproval and shall specify the items disapproved and the reasons therefor. Any defects or deviations in, and/or disapproval by Landlord of, the Tenant Improvements shall be rectified by Tenant at no expense to Landlord, provided however, that in the event Landlord reasonably determines that a defect or deviation exists or disapproves of any matter in connection with any portion of the Tenant Improvements and such defect, deviation or matter might adversely affect the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air conditioning or life-safety systems of the Building, the structure or exterior appearance of the Building or any other tenant's use of such other tenant's leased premises, and Tenant fails to correct such item within five (5) business days of written notice from Landlord, then Landlord may take such action as Landlord reasonably deems necessary, at Tenant's expense and without incurring any liability on Landlord's part, to correct any such defect, deviation and/or matter, including, without limitation, causing the cessation of performance of the construction of the Tenant Improvements until such time as the defect, deviation and/or matter is corrected to Landlord's satisfaction.
4.2.5 Meetings. Commencing upon the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall hold meetings not less than twice per month (and weekly following commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements) at a reasonable time, with the Architect and the Contractor regarding the progress of the preparation of Construction Documents and the construction of the Tenant Improvements, which meetings shall be held at a mutually agreeable location, and Landlord and/or its agents shall receive prior notice of, and shall have the right to attend, all such meetings. In addition, minutes shall be taken at all such meetings, a copy of which minutes shall be promptly delivered to Landlord. One such meeting each month shall include the review of Contractor's current request for payment.
