-ii-
(a) The term of this Lease shall be as shown in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions and shall commence on the date shown in Item 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions (the "Commencement Date"). Notwithstanding the Commencement Date, Tenant shall have access to the Premises seven (7) days prior to the Commencement Date. Early access shall be for the purpose of installing Tenant's equipment, wiring, furniture and related items and, if completed, Tenant's actual use of the Premises for its normal business activities. All provisions of this Lease shall be applicable immediately upon such mutual execution and delivery by the parties other than Tenant's obligation for the payment of rent which shall not commence until the Commencement Date. Within thirty (30) days following the date of commencement of the term of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a supplemental agreement, in letter form, setting forth the Commencement Date and the Rentable Area of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure of Tenant to execute such supplemental agreement shall not affect Landlord's determination of the Commencement Date and Rentable Area of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. From and after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall observe all obligations of the tenant pursuant to this Lease, including those requiring the payment of Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent.
(b) The Commencement Date shown in Item 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions is an estimated date by which Landlord will deliver the Premises to Tenant. If Landlord is unable to tender possession of the Premises on that date, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, except to the extent caused by Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Tenant shall pay as Basic Annual Rent for the Premises the initial sum shown in Item 4 of the Basic Lease Provisions, subject to adjustment as set forth in Item 6 of the Basic Lease Provisions. Basic Annual Rent shall be payable in advance in equal monthly installments as shown in Item 5 of the Basic Lease Provisions without deduction or offset, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing on the first day of each calendar month thereafter. In the event the term of this Lease commences or ends on a day other than the first or last day of a calendar month, then the Basic Annual Rent for such partial month shall be prorated in the proportion that the number of days this Lease is in effect during such partial month bears to the number of days in that calendar month, and such Basic Annual Rent shall be paid at the commencement of such partial month. The first monthly installment of Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be paid to Landlord concurrently with Tenant's execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord.
(a) Tenant agrees to pay as Additional Rent for the Premises Tenant's proportionate share of all "Operating Expenses" (as hereinafter defined) incurred by Landlord in the operation of the Building. Tenant's proportionate share thereof (hereinafter "Expense Percentage") shall be the percentage obtained by dividing the average Rentable Area of the Premises for such year or portion thereof by ninety-five percent (95%) of the total Rentable Area of the Building, for the same period, and, subject to Exhibit "A-3," shall initially be as set forth in Item 3.A. of the Basic Lease Provisions.
(b) Prior to commencement of the Lease term and of each calendar year thereafter, Landlord shall give Tenant a written estimate of Operating Expenses and Tenant's proportionate share thereof for the ensuing year or portion thereof. Tenant shall pay such estimated amount to Landlord in equal monthly installments, in advance. Within ninety (90) days after the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Operating Expenses for such period in accordance with subparagraph (d) below, and the parties shall make any payment or allowance necessary to adjust Tenant's estimated payment to Tenant's proportionate share as shown by such annual statement. Any amount due from Tenant shall be paid within ten (10) days after receipt of such statement. Any amount due to Tenant shall be credited against installments of Additional Rent next coming due under this Paragraph 3.
(c) If at any time during any calendar year of the Lease term the amount(s) and/or the rates for any item(s) of Operating Expenses are increased to a rate(s) or amount(s) in excess of the rate(s) or amount(s) used in calculating the estimated Operating Expenses for such calendar year, Tenant's estimated share of such Operating Expenses shall be increased for the month in which such increase becomes effective and for succeeding months by Tenant's Expense Percentage of such increase, as applicable. In the event of such an increase in rate or amount, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice (the "Adjustment Notice") of the amount or estimated amount of increase, the month in which effective, and Tenant's monthly share thereof. Commencing with the first monthly payment of estimated Operating Expenses required to be made by Tenant after receipt of the Adjustment Notice (the "First Adjustment Payment"), Tenant shall pay such increase to Landlord as part of Tenant's monthly payments of estimated Operating Expenses as provided in subparagraph (b) above. If the effective date of the increase is prior in time to the date of the Adjustment Notice, the First Adjustment Payment shall be increased to include the amount of the monthly payments, if any, which would have been made had the Adjustment Notice been received prior to the effective date of the increase.
(d) The term "Operating Expenses" as used herein shall include all costs of operation and maintenance of the Building, as determined by generally accepted accounting practices consistently applied and determined as if the Building were ninety-five percent occupied for an entire calendar year, and shall include the following costs by way of illustration but not limitation: real and personal property taxes and vehicle taxes and fees; general and special assessments; costs and expenses incurred in contesting the amount of validity of any property tax by appropriate proceedings; water and sewer charges; insurance premiums, including the cost of rental insurance; the amount of any deductible payable by Landlord with respect to damage or destruction to all or any portion of the Building; license, permit and inspection fees; heat; light; power; intrabuilding network cable including, without limitation, service contract fees; janitorial and courtesy officer services (if any); fire protection; labor; salaries; air conditioning; gardening and landscaping; maintenance and repair (including repairs pursuant to Paragraph 5); painting; trash removal; depreciation of operational equipment for the Building; supplies; materials; equipment; tools; property management costs and fees; all fees, assessments and other amounts paid by Landlord of the type described in Paragraph 41; the cost of any capital improvements made to the Building by Landlord which are reasonably calculated to reduce Operating Expenses and/or are required under any governmental law or regulation not applicable to the Building or not in effect at the time it was constructed, such cost to be amortized over such reasonable period as Landlord shall determine and to include a return on capital at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum on the unamortized balance or at such higher rate as may have been paid by Landlord on funds borrowed for the purpose of constructing such capital improvements; the cost of providing a management office at the Building; the cost of providing a manager and support staff to operate such office and the Building; and an amount equal to fifteen percent of all such costs and expenses to cover Landlord's indirect administrative and overhead expense. The term "property taxes" as used herein shall include (i) all real estate taxes and personal property taxes and other taxes, charges and assessments, unforeseen as well as foreseen, which are levied with respect to the Building, and any improvements, fixtures and equipment and other property of Landlord, real or personal, located in the Building and used in connection with the operation of the Building and the land upon which situated, (ii) any tax, surcharge or assessment which shall be levied in addition to or in lieu of real estate or personal property taxes, other than taxes covered by Paragraph 12, and (iii) any service or other fees collected by governmental agencies in addition to or in lieu of property taxes for services provided by such agencies. The term "property taxes" as used herein shall also include any rental, excise, sales, transaction privilege, or other tax or levy, however denominated, imposed upon or measured by the rental reserved hereunder or on Landlord's business of leasing the Premises, excepting only net income taxes.
5
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in subparagraph (d) immediately above, as to each specific category of expense which one or more tenants of the Building either pays directly to third parties or actually reimburses to Landlord (for example, separately metered utilities, property taxes directly reimbursed to Landlord, etc.) then each such expense which is actually paid or reimbursed shall not be included in "Operating Expenses" for purposes of this Paragraph 3. Tenant's Operating Expense Percentages, as appropriate, for each such category of expense shall be adjusted by excluding from the denominator thereof the Rentable Area of all such tenants paying such category of expense directly to third parties or actually reimbursing same directly to Landlord. Moreover, if Tenant directly pays a third party or actually reimburses Landlord for any such category of expense, each such category of expenses which is paid or actually reimbursed by Tenant shall be excluded from the determination of "Operating Expenses" for Tenant to the extent such expense (after deduction of that portion paid or directly reimbursed by Tenant) was incurred with respect to space in the Building actually leased to other tenants.
(f) The annual determination of Operating Expenses shall be made by Landlord and the fact that such Operating Expenses have in fact been incurred by Landlord shall be certified by a nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants designated by Landlord. A copy of Landlord's determination and such certification shall be made available to Tenant upon request. Landlord's determination and such certification shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
(g) The Basic Annual Rent, as adjusted pursuant to Paragraph 2, the Additional Rent and all other amounts required to be paid by Tenant hereunder, are sometimes herein collectively referred to as, and shall constitute, "rent" within the meaning of California Civil Code Section 1951(a).
Tenant has paid or will pay Landlord such sum(s) at such time(s) as are set forth in Item 9 of the Basic Lease Provisions as security for the full and faithful performance of the terms hereof by Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to keep this security deposit separate from its general funds and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest thereon. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including but not limited to the provisions relating to the payment of rent, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply or retain all or any part of this security deposit for the payment of any rent of any other sum in default, or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default, including without limitation, costs and attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord to recover possession of the Premises upon a default by Tenant hereunder. If any portion of said deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after receipt of written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to its original amount and Tenant's failure to do so shall constitute a default hereunder by Tenant. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the security deposit shall be applied against any amounts owed by Tenant to Landlord at the expiration or termination of this Lease and any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder) within the time specified in Civil Code Section 1950.7.
(a) Subject to Paragraph 5(b), Landlord shall make all necessary repairs to the exterior walls, exterior doors, windows, corridors and other common areas of the Building and Landlord shall keep the Building in a safe, clean and neat condition, and use reasonable efforts to keep all equipment used in common with other tenants, such as elevators, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, intrabuilding network cabling and similar equipment, in good condition and repair. Except as provided in Paragraphs 14 and 15 hereof, there shall be no abatement of rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with or interruption of Tenant's business arising from the failure of any such equipment or the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any portion of the Building or in or to fixtures, appurtenances and equipment therein. Tenant waives the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense under Section 1942 of the California Civil Code, or under any law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect. Landlord shall have no obligation to repair until a reasonable time after receipt of notice or knowledge of the need for repair. The cost of all such work by Landlord shall be included in Operating Expenses pursuant to Paragraph 3.
2
(b) Tenant agrees that it will make all repairs to the Premises and fixtures therein not required above to be made by Landlord and shall do all decorating, remodeling, alteration and painting required by Tenant during the term of this Lease. Tenant will pay for any repairs to the Premises or the Building made necessary by any negligence or carelessness of Tenant or its assignees, subtenants, employees of their respective agents or other persons permitted in the Building by Tenant, or any of them, and will maintain the Premises, and will leave the Premises upon termination of this Lease in a safe, clean, neat and sanitary condition.
(a) Landlord shall have no construction obligation under this Lease and Tenant shall and does hereby accept the Premises in its current "AS-IS" condition without any improvements or modifications.
(b) Landlord shall have the right, at any time, and without any liability to Tenant, to change the arrangement and/or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets, and other public parts of the Building and upon giving Tenant reasonable notice thereof, to change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known.
(c) Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements without the prior written consent of Landlord. Subject to Landlord approval of specific plans and specifications, Landlord acknowledges Tenant's intent to install, at Tenant's sole cost, a dedicated server room of approximately 100 square feet in size with dedicated twenty-four (24) hour HVAC in a mutually agreed location within the Premises. All such alterations, additions and improvements shall be made in conformity with plans therefor approved by Landlord in writing prior to the commencement of such work and shall be performed by a tenant improvements contractor designated by Landlord. All such alterations, additions and improvements (except movable furniture, furnishings and trade fixtures) shall become the property of Landlord and shall be surrendered with the Premises, as a part thereof, at the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof. All such alterations, additions or improvements shall, however, be made by Tenant at Tenant's sole expense. Upon termination of the Lease, or, at Landlord's option, within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Lease term, Tenant shall, upon demand by Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, forthwith remove any alterations, additions or improvements (except those made initially at the commencement of Tenant's possession of the Premises) made by Tenant and designated by Landlord to be removed, and repair and restore the Premises to their original condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to restore the dedicated server room. Any personal property left on or in the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease shall be disposed of by Landlord in the manner provided by law, including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1980 et seq. Tenant releases Landlord of and from any and all claims and liability for damage to or destruction or loss of property left by Tenant upon the Premises at the expiration or other termination of this Lease and Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord against any and all claims and liability with respect thereto. Tenant further waives all claims to all property (and the proceeds thereof) abandoned by Tenant and retained or disposed of by Landlord.
(d) Tenant shall not commence work on any alteration, addition or improvement until and unless Landlord has received at least ten (10) days notice that such work is to commence. Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for any expense incurred by Landlord in reviewing and approving the plans and specifications for such work or by reason of any faulty work done by Tenant or Tenant's contractors, or by reason of delays caused by such work, or by reason of inadequate cleanup, or which is otherwise incurred by Landlord to review the plans and specifications, and monitor and inspect the progress of such work. Tenant or its contractors will in no event be allowed to make any improvements to the Premises which could possibly affect any of the Building systems or to make any structural modification to the Building without first obtaining Landlord's consent, which Landlord can withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. All work by Tenant shall be scheduled through Landlord and shall be diligently and continuously pursued from the date of its commencement through its completion. In addition to the foregoing, and at Landlord's option, Tenant shall obtain a completion and/or performance bond in a form and by a surety acceptable to Landlord and in an amount not less than one and one-half (1½) times the estimated cost of such alterations, additions or improvements.
(e) All alterations, additions and improvements to the Premises made by Tenant shall comply with both ADA as defined in Paragraph 8 of this Lease and the plans therefor approved in advance by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord's approval or consent to any such work shall not impose any liability upon Landlord nor shall such approval infer that Landlord has expressed any opinion or made any warranty regarding the adequacy, sufficiency or legality of any such improvements. Such plans and any specifications associated therewith shall be prepared by an architect or interior designer approved in advance by Landlord. No such work shall proceed without Landlord's prior approval of (i) Tenant's contractor(s); (ii) certificates of insurance from a company or companies approved by Landlord, furnished to Landlord by Tenant's contractor, for combined single limit bodily injury and property damage insurance covering comprehensive general liability and automobile liability, in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and endorsed to show Landlord as an additional named insured, and for workers' compensation as required by law (provided, however, nothing in this subparagraph shall release Tenant of its other insurance obligations hereunder); and (iii) detailed plans and specifications for such work. All such work by Tenant shall be done in a first-class workmanlike manner and in conformity with all applicable governmental requirements, with valid building permit(s) and/or all other permits or licenses when and where required, copies of which shall be furnished to Landlord before the work is commenced, and any work not acceptable to any governmental authority or agency having or exercising jurisdiction over such work, or not reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be promptly replaced and corrected at Tenant's expense. All such work shall comply with all rules and regulations established by Landlord to ensure the safety, cleanliness and good order of the Building and its occupants, including but not limited to those relating to usage of elevators and loading docks, establishment of off-Premises staging areas, disposal of refuse and the hours of performing operations which result in the creation of noise, dust and odors. No such alterations, additions or improvements by Tenant shall incorporate therein any hazardous materials, as defined in Paragraph 9.
3
(f) No antenna, satellite dish, microwave receiver or other receiving or transmission equipment shall be installed by Tenant in or on the roof of or about the Building or elsewhere in the common areas except with the prior written consent of Landlord. Any such installation by Tenant shall be only the particular equipment specifically approved by Landlord and any such installation shall be limited to the manner and location approved by Landlord. Any such installation shall be subject to such terms and conditions as are provided by Landlord to Tenant at the time Landlord approves such installation.
Tenant shall keep the Premises and the Building free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or for Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within ten (10) days following the imposition of any such lien, cause the same to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper lien release bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right, but not the obligation, to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of or defense against the claim giving rise to such lien. All sums paid by Landlord and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall create automatically an obligation of Tenant to pay an equivalent amount as additional rent, which additional rent shall be payable by Tenant within five (5) days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's demand therefor with interest at the rate per annum determined pursuant to Paragraph 37 from date of payment by Landlord until paid by Tenant. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims for mechanics', materialmen's or other liens in connection with any alterations, repairs or any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant. Nothing herein shall imply any consent by Landlord to subject Landlord's estate to liability under any mechanics' or other lien law. Tenant shall give Landlord adequate opportunity and Landlord shall have the right to post in or on the Premises such notices of nonresponsibility as are provided for in the mechanics lien laws of the state of California.
Tenant and any of its permitted assignees, sublessees or other occupants (collectively "Tenant Parties") shall use the Premises only for the purpose(s) set forth in Item 11 of the Basic Lease Provisions and shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose without the prior written consent of Landlord. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant and the Tenant Parties shall not use the Premises, nor permit the Premises to be used, for retail purposes nor shall Tenant or the Tenant Parties permit the Premises to be used by a governmental or quasi-governmental entity or agency (it being understood, however, that Landlord may lease to such an entity or agency if Landlord recaptures all or any portion of the Premises pursuant to Paragraph 16 below). Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises in violation of law or of the certificate of occupancy issued for the Building, and shall, upon five (5) days written notice from Landlord, discontinue any use of the Premises which is declared by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to be a violation of law or of such certificate of occupancy. Tenant shall comply promptly with any direction of any governmental authority having jurisdiction which shall, by reason of the nature of Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, impose any duty upon Tenant or Landlord with respect to the Premises or with respect to the use or occupancy thereof. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which will invalidate or increase the cost of any fire, extended coverage or any other insurance policy covering the Building and/or property located therein and shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations and requirements of the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau or any other organization performing a similar function.

(d) Tenant shall furnish to Landlord copies of all notices, claims, reports, complaints, warnings, asserted violations, documents or other communications received or delivered by Tenant, as soon as possible and in any event within five (5) days of such receipt or delivery, with respect to any actual or alleged Use, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials in or about the Premises or the Building.

All such work shall, in each instance, be conducted to the satisfaction of Landlord and all governmental authorities having jurisdiction.

(g)
(i) Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (with legal counsel acceptable to Landlord in its subjective, good faith judgment) and hold harmless Landlord, its partners and its and their respective successors, assigns, partners, directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, lenders, ground lessors and attorneys, and the Building, from and against any and all Claims incurred by such indemnified persons, or any of them, in connection with, or as the result of: (A) the presence, Use or disposal of any Hazardous Materials into or about the Building, or the transportation of any Hazardous Materials to or from the Building, by Tenant or its Agents; (B) any injury to or death of persons or damage to or destruction of property resulting from the presence, Use or disposal of any Hazardous Materials into or about the Building, or the transportation of any Hazardous Materials to or from the Building, by Tenant or its Agents; (C) any violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws; and (D) any failure of Tenant or its Agents to observe the provisions of this Paragraph 9.

For purposes of these indemnity provisions, any acts or omissions of Tenant, its assignees, sublessees, Agents or others acting for or on behalf of Tenant (regardless of whether they are negligent, intentional, willful, or unlawful) shall be strictly attributable to Tenant.
6
(ii) If at any time after the initiation of any suit, action, investigation or other proceeding which could create a right of indemnification under Paragraph 9(g)(i) Landlord determines that Tenant is not complying with the provisions of Paragraph 9(g)(i), then Landlord may, without prejudicing, limiting, releasing or waiving the right of indemnification provided herein, separately defend or retain separate counsel to represent and control the defense as to Landlord's interest in such suit, action, investigation or other proceeding.

"A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."
Tenant agrees, represents and warrants that it is familiar with, has read, understands, and has consulted legal counsel of its choosing with respect to California Civil Code Section 1542 and Tenant realizes and acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it may have given, or may hereinafter give, rise to Claims which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected.
(h) Upon any violation of the provisions of this Xxxxxxxxx 0, Xxxxxxxx shall be entitled to exercise any or all remedies available to a landlord against a defaulting tenant including, but not limited to, those set forth in Paragraph 26.

(j) No termination, cancellation or release agreement entered into by Landlord and Tenant shall release Tenant from its obligations under this Paragraph 9 unless specifically agreed to by Landlord in writing at the time of such agreement.
(k) Tenant's covenants and obligations under this Paragraph 9 shall also apply to any assignee or sublessee of Tenant, and to any such assignee's or sublessee's partners, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, contractors and any other third parties entering upon the Building at the request or invitation of such assignee or sublessee.

7
(ii) On generally accepted business days from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon (and at other times for a reasonable additional charge to be fixed by Landlord), Landlord shall ventilate the Premises and furnish air conditioning when in the judgment of Landlord it is required for the comfortable occupancy of the Premises during such days and hours, subject to any requirements or standards relating to, among other things, energy conservation, imposed or established by governmental agencies or cooperative organizations. Landlord shall make available at Tenant's expense after-hours power, including light, and air conditioning to each floor of the Building which shall be controlled by a key and metering system, digital control system or other central control system selected by Landlord. Minimum use of after-hours power, heat and air conditioning, the costs thereof and the prior notice required for such services shall be determined from time to time by Landlord and confirmed in writing to Tenant, as the same may change from time to time.
(iii) Landlord shall furnish to the Premises at all times, subject to interruptions beyond Landlord's control, electric current as required by the building standard office lighting (approximately two (2) xxxxx per square foot) and receptacles (approximately one (1) watt per square foot). At all times Tenant's use of electric current shall never exceed the capacity of the feeders to the Building or the risers or wiring installation. Tenant shall not install or use or permit the installation or use of any computer or electronic data processing equipment in the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord.
(iv) Landlord shall furnish water for drinking, cleaning and lavatory purposes only.
(v) Landlord shall provide janitorial services to the Premises, each evening, five (5) days per week (except for the Building holidays), in accordance with the specifications attached hereto as Exhibit "E", provided the Premises are used exclusively as offices and customary ancillary uses and are kept reasonably in order by Tenant. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable for any act or omission or commission on the part of the persons employed to perform said janitorial services, which shall be performed at Landlord's direction without interference by Tenant or Tenant's employees, agents, contractors, licensees, directors, officers, partners, trustees, visitors or invitees (collectively, "Tenant Parties"). If the Premises are not used exclusively as offices, Tenant or persons approved by Landlord shall keep the Premises clean and in order to the satisfaction of Landlord, but at Tenant's sole expense. No persons other than Tenant and those persons approved by Landlord shall be permitted to enter the Building for the purpose of keeping the Premises clean and in order. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of removal of any of Tenant's refuse and rubbish, to the extent that the same exceeds the refuse and rubbish usually attendant upon the use of the Premises as offices.
(vi) Landlord shall replace, as necessary, the fluorescent tubes in the Building standard lighting fixtures installed by Landlord. Tenant shall replace, as necessary, all bulbs and fluorescent tubes in non-building standard lighting fixtures, if any, installed in the Premises.

(vii) Landlord shall provide at all times, subject to interruptions due to equipment failure, maintenance and/or repairs, intrabuilding network cabling to permit connection of telephone service from the Minimum Point of Entry as designated by Pacific Xxxx or other provider to the telephone closet located on the floor of the Building on which the Premises is located.

(c) Tenant agrees to cooperate fully at all times with Landlord and to abide by all regulations and requirements which Landlord may prescribe for the use of the above utilities and services. Any failure to pay any excess costs as described above shall constitute a breach of the obligation to pay rent under this Lease and shall entitle Landlord to the rights herein granted for such breach.
(d) Landlord reserves the right in its sole and absolute discretion to reduce, interrupt or cease service of the heating, air conditioning, ventilation, elevator, plumbing, electrical systems, telephone systems and/or utilities services of the Premises or the Building, for (i) the making of any repairs, additions, alterations or improvements to the Premises or Building until said repairs, additions, alterations or improvements shall have been completed or (ii) any accident, breakage, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbance or labor dispute of any character, governmental regulation, moratorium or other governmental action, inability by exercise of reasonable diligence to obtain electricity, water or fuel, or by any other cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control. In such event, Landlord shall not be liable for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to, any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of Landlord's failure to furnish any of the foregoing. Landlord shall not be in breach of this Lease and shall not be liable in damages (including but not limited to any damages, compensation or claims arising from any interruption or cessation of Tenant's business) or otherwise for failure, stoppage or interruption of any such service, nor shall the same be construed either as an eviction of Tenant, or work an abatement of rent, or relieve Tenant from the operation of any covenant or agreement. In the event of any failure, stoppage or interruption thereof, however, Landlord shall use reasonable diligence to resume service promptly where it is within Landlord's reasonable control to do so.
8
(e) Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect to contract for the services of individuals that will monitor the systems and operations of the Building. In this connection, Landlord may also elect to station some of these individuals in the lobby of the Building. Such individuals are not security personnel and will not provide protective services to any of the tenants of the Building, including Tenant.
(f) Notwithstanding anything hereinabove to the contrary, Landlord reserves the right from time to time to make reasonable and nondiscriminatory modifications to the above standards for utilities and services.
(g) Tenant shall pay for all telephone service to the Premises and shall contract directly with the providing company for such service, and Landlord shall have no responsibilities thereto.
Tenant agrees to abide by all rules and regulations of the Building imposed by Landlord as set forth in Exhibit "C" attached hereto, as the same may be changed from time to time upon reasonable notice to Tenant. Any such change shall be effective upon delivery of a copy thereof to Tenant. These rules and regulations are imposed for the cleanliness, good appearance, proper maintenance, good order and reasonable use of the Premises and the Building, and as may be necessary for the enjoyment of the Building by all tenants and their clients, customers and employees. A breach of the rules and regulations shall not be grounds for termination of this Lease unless Tenant continues to breach the same after ten (10) days written notice by Landlord; provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under Paragraph 26, below, or Section 1161, et seq., of the California Code of Civil Procedure, as amended. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for the failure of any other tenant, its agents or employees, to conform to the rules and regulations.
(a) Tenant shall be liable for and pay ten (10) days before delinquency, all taxes, levies and assessments levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises, and, when possible, Tenant shall cause such personal property and trade fixtures to be assessed and billed separately from the Building and the Premises. If any such taxes, levies and assessments on Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or if the assessed value of the Building is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and if Landlord pays the taxes, levies and assessments based upon such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand repay to Landlord, as additional rent, the taxes, levies and assessments so levied against Landlord, or the proportion of such taxes, levies and assessments resulting from such increase in the assessment, together with interest thereon from the date of payment by Landlord to the date of reimbursement by Tenant at the rate determined pursuant to Paragraph 37. It is provided, however, that in any such event Tenant shall have the right, in the name of Landlord and with Landlord's full cooperation but without any cost to Landlord, to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover the amount of any such taxes, levies and assessments so paid under protest, any amount so recovered to belong to Tenant.
(b) If the tenant improvements in the Premises, whether installed and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which tenant improvements conforming to Landlord's "building standard" in other space in the Building are assessed, then the real property taxes and assessments levied against Landlord or the Building by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions of subparagraph (a) above. If the records of the County Assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining whether said tenant improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than Landlord's "building standard," such records shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant; otherwise the actual cost of construction shall be the basis for such determination.
Landlord reserves the right without Tenant's consent, on thirty (30) days written notice to Tenant, to substitute other premises anywhere within the Building for the Premises, at the same rental rate, provided that the substituted premises: (a) contain at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the same Rentable Area as the Premises, and (b) contain a comparable number of offices and staff support areas. Subject to the limitation specified below, Landlord shall pay all reasonable moving expenses of Tenant incidental to such substitution of premises, but only limited to (i) physical movement of Tenant's furniture, furnishings, equipment, books and files from the Premises to the substituted premises, (ii) installation and hook-up charges for Tenant's telephone and PBX equipment, (iii) relocation and installation of photocopy and word processing equipment located in the Premises and (iv) a reasonable supply of new stationery and business cards then held in stock by Tenant, not in excess of a 60 day supply, if Tenant's stationery and business cards in use at the date of Landlord's notice identify Tenant's suite number(s). Tenant shall provide a detailed estimate of its costs to Landlord within twenty (20) days of Tenant's receipt of Landlord's notice. Landlord may elect to use its own contractors in connection with Tenant's relocation. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to incur or fund moving expenses, exclusive to Tenant improvement costs, in an amount in excess of two (2) months of Basic Annual Rent at the rate then payable hereunder. In the event there is a substitution of premises, the parties shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease describing the location of new premises and setting forth all adjustments to the Basic Annual Rent and/or the Additional Rent, if any. In the event that Tenant shall fail to execute and deliver such amendment to Landlord within ten (10) days of its receipt of same, for any reason (including without limitation, the inability of the parties to reach an agreement on the proposed relocation), or if Tenant shall thereafter fail to comply with the terms thereof, then Landlord may, at its option, elect to terminate this Lease upon not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice to Tenant. In the event of such termination, and provided Tenant timely vacates the Premises in the condition required by this Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to a refund of the Basic Annual Rent paid by Tenant for the final one (1) month of the Term. Upon the effective date of such termination of this Lease, Tenant shall vacate the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease and the provisions of Paragraph 27 hereof as well as all other default and remedy provisions of this Lease shall be applicable in the event of Tenant's failure to so vacate the Premises.
9
(a) In the event the Premises, or access to them, are wholly or partially destroyed by fire or other casualty covered by the form of fire and extended coverage insurance maintained by Landlord, Landlord shall rebuild, repair or restore the Premises and access thereto to substantially the same condition as when the same were furnished to Tenant, excluding any improvements installed by Tenant and any of Tenant's personal property, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. In the event, however, that the Building is so damaged or destroyed to the extent of more than one-third (1/3) of its replacement cost, or to any substantial extent by a casualty not so covered, Landlord may elect by written notice to Tenant given within twenty (20) days after the occurrence of the casualty to terminate this Lease in lieu of so restoring the Premises, in which event this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the occurrence of the casualty. Landlord shall in no event be obligated to make any repairs or replacement of any items other than those items installed by or at the expense of Landlord. If the Premises are rendered totally or partially untenantable, rent shall xxxxx during the period of reconstruction in the same proportion to the total rent as the portion of the Premises rendered untenantable bears to the entire Premises. Any such rental abatement shall not defeat or diminish Landlord's rights to recover upon any rental interruption insurance maintained by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 20. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages for loss of use of the whole or any part of the Premises or for any inconvenience occasioned by any such destruction, rebuilding or restoration of the Premises, the Building or access thereto. Tenant waives the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) and any present and future laws and case decisions to the same effect.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Paragraph 14(a) above, if the Premises or the Building is wholly or partially damaged or destroyed within the final twelve (12) months of the Term of this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, by giving Tenant notice within sixty (60) days after notice to Landlord of the occurrence of such damage or destruction, elect to terminate the Lease. Furthermore, upon termination of this Lease pursuant to this Paragraph 14(b), Tenant and Landlord hereby agree (except as expressly provided for otherwise in this Lease) to release each other from any and all obligations and liabilities with respect to the Lease except such obligations and liabilities which arise or accrue prior to such termination.
(a) In case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof as shall substantially interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy thereof, shall be taken by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking or threat of such taking, either Tenant or Landlord may terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority. Except as provided herein, Tenant shall not because of such taking assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking, and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In such event, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises to substantially their condition prior to such partial taking, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which, Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration. Any such rental abatement shall not defeat or diminish Landlord's rights to recover upon any rental interruption insurance maintained by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 20. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 15(a) shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in, or prevent Tenant from seeking any award against the taking authority for, the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant or for relocation or business interruption expenses recoverable from the taking authority. Landlord may, without any obligation to Tenant, agree to sell and/or convey to any taking authority the Premises, the Building or any portion thereof sought by such taking authority, free from this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder, without first requiring that any action or proceeding be instituted or pursued to judgment.
(b) In the event of a temporary taking of the Premises or any part of the Premises and/or of Tenant's rights to the Premises or under this Lease, this Lease shall not terminate, nor shall Tenant have the right to any abatement of rent or of any other payments owed to Landlord pursuant to this Lease. Any award made to Tenant by reason of such temporary taking shall belong entirely to Tenant.
(c) This Paragraph 15 shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a taking or condemnation. Tenant hereby waives the benefit of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130. Upon termination of the Lease pursuant to this Paragraph 15, Tenant and Landlord hereby agree (except as expressly provided for otherwise in this Lease) to release each other from any and all obligations and liabilities with respect to the Lease except such obligations and liabilities which arise or accrue prior to such termination.
(a) Except as provided below, Tenant shall not, either voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, assign, sublet, mortgage or otherwise encumber all or any portion of its interest in this Lease or in the Premises or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant or Tenant's employees without obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall be subject to the provisions of subsections (b) through (i) below. Any such attempted assignment, subletting, mortgage or other encumbrance without such consent shall be null and void and of no effect. In connection with any transaction of the type described in this Paragraph 16(a):
10
(i) Any approved sublease shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of this Lease and shall be terminable by Landlord upon the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease, including a termination by mutual agreement of Landlord and Tenant.
(ii) In connection with any such approved assignment, the assignee shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written request from Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord a written assumption of the obligations of Tenant pursuant to this Lease accruing from and after the effective date of the assignment and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.
(iii) No such approved assignment or subletting shall release Tenant from any of the obligations of the tenant hereunder, whether accruing prior to or subsequent to the effective date of such transaction.
(iv) No such approved transaction shall be accompanied by a change in use from that permitted pursuant to Paragraph 11 of the Basic Lease Provisions nor shall any such transaction violate any exclusive use granted by Landlord prior to the proposed transaction.
(b) No assignment, subletting, mortgage or other encumbrance of Tenant's interest in this Lease shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay the rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. Except as provided below, any subletting by Tenant of any portion of the Premises shall be at not less than 100% of the then current market rental rate for direct (non-sublease) space in the Building (the "100% Rental Rate") and upon market terms and, if Landlord so requests, shall require that the assignee or sublessee remit directly to Landlord, on a monthly basis, all rent due to Tenant by said assignee or sublessee. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any subletting, assignment, mortgage or other encumbrance. Consent to one sublease, assignment, mortgage or other encumbrance shall not be deemed to constitute consent to any subsequent attempted subletting, assignment, mortgage or other encumbrance. If Tenant desires to sublet all or any portion of the Premises at terms other than the 100% Rental Rate, then Tenant may do so provided Tenant engages Landlord's leasing agent as Tenant's exclusive agent to market such space. Landlord shall act in good faith in such capacity and make all prospective tenants of the Building who inquire about available space aware of Tenant's space. The listing agreement between Landlord and Tenant shall be for a duration of one hundred eighty (180) days on generally available, arms length, market terms and conditions including, without limitation, a commission schedule and commission entitlement for transactions with registered parties occurring within one hundred eighty (180) days after expiration of the listing. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant's agreement to use Landlord as the listing broker is essential consideration for Landlord allowing subleasing at below the 100% Rental Rate which is otherwise prohibited. After expiration of the one hundred eighty (180) day period, Tenant shall be free to utilize services of any qualified broker and may offer the space at below the 100% Rental Rate provided Tenant does not advertise or publish such rates.
(c) If Tenant desires at any time to assign this Lease or to sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first notify Landlord of its desire to do so and shall submit in writing to Landlord (i) the name of the proposed subtenant or assignee; (ii) the nature of the proposed subtenant's or assignee's business to be carried on in the Premises, (iii) the terms and provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment and the proposed effective date thereof; and (iv) such financial information as Landlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed subtenant or assignee. The submission pursuant to clause (iii) shall include a copy of any agreement, escrow instructions or other document which contains or memorializes the terms and provisions of the transaction for which Landlord's consent is required. Similarly, if Tenant desires to mortgage or encumber its interest in this Lease, Tenant shall first supply to Landlord in writing such information as to such transaction as may be reasonably requested by Landlord.
(d) As a condition to Landlord's consent to such assignment or subletting, Landlord shall be entitled to receive (at the same time as paid to Tenant), in the case of a subletting, one hundred percent (100%) of all rent (however denominated and paid) payable by the subtenant to Tenant in excess of that payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the other provisions of this Lease and, in the case of an assignment, one hundred percent (100%) of all consideration given, directly or indirectly, by the assignee to Tenant in connection with such assignment for the value of the leasehold estate, less normal and usual costs incurred by Tenant in connection with such subletting or assignment. For the purposes of this subparagraph, the term "rent" shall mean all consideration paid or given, directly or indirectly, for the use of the Premises or any portion thereof. The term "consideration" shall mean and include money, services, property or any other thing of value such as payment of costs, cancellation of indebtedness, discounts, rebates and the like. "Normal and usual costs" shall only mean the following: broker's commission paid by Tenant to a broker independent of Tenant in connection with such assignment or subletting; legal fees incurred by Tenant in processing such assignment or subletting; and out-of-pocket costs incurred by Tenant in advertising for an assignee or subtenant. "Sublet" and "sublease" shall include a sublease as to which Tenant is sublessor and any sub-sublease or other sub-subtenancy, irrespective of the number of tenancies and tenancy levels between the ultimate occupant and Landlord, as to which Tenant receives any consideration, as defined in this subparagraph, and Tenant shall require on any sublease which it executes that Tenant receive the profit from all sub-subtenancies, irrespective of the number of levels thereof. Any rent or other consideration which is to be passed through to Landlord by Tenant pursuant to this subparagraph shall be paid to Landlord promptly upon receipt by Tenant and shall be paid in cash, irrespective of the form in which received by Tenant from any subtenant or assignee. In the event that any rent or other consideration received by Tenant from a subtenant or assignee is in a form other than cash, Tenant shall pay to Landlord in cash the fair value of such consideration.
11
(e) At any time within thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of the last of the information specified in subparagraph (c) above, Landlord may by written notice to Tenant elect (i) to approve or disapprove of such assignment or sublease, (ii) to sublease the Premises or the portion thereof so proposed to be subleased by Tenant, or to take an assignment of Tenant's leasehold estate hereunder, or such part thereof as shall be specified in said notice, on the same terms as those stated in this Lease and in turn sublease or assign to the proposed subtenant or assignee on the same terms as those offered by Tenant to the proposed subtenant or assignee, as the case may be; or (iii) to terminate this Lease as to the portion (including all) of the Premises so proposed to be subleased or assigned, with a proportionate abatement in the rent payable hereunder. Tenant shall, at Tenant's own cost and expense, discharge in full any commissions which may be due and owing as the result of any proposed assignment or subletting, whether or not the Premises are recaptured pursuant hereto and rented by Landlord to the proposed subtenant or assignee or any other tenant. If Landlord does not disapprove the proposed subletting or assignment in writing and does not exercise any option set forth in this subparagraph (e) within said thirty (30) day period, Tenant may within one hundred eighty (180) days after the expiration of said thirty (30) day period enter into a valid assignment or sublease of the Premises or portion thereof, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the information furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to subparagraph (c) above. It is provided, however, that any material change in such terms shall be subject to Landlord's consent and rights of termination and recapture as provided in this Paragraph and, provided further, that any amount to be paid by Tenant in connection with such subletting or assignment pursuant to subparagraph (d) above shall be paid to Landlord upon consummation of such transaction.
(f) Landlord shall have the right to approve or disapprove any proposed assignee or subtenant. In exercising such right of approval or disapproval, Landlord shall be entitled to take into account any fact or factor which Landlord reasonably deems relevant to such decision, including but not necessarily limited to the following, all of which are agreed by Tenant to be reasonable factors for Landlord's consideration:
(i) The financial strength of the proposed assignee or subtenant, including, but not limited to, the adequacy of its working capital to pay all expenses anticipated in connection with any proposed remodeling of the Premises. Landlord may also consider the business experience of the proposed subtenant or assignee and the longevity of the current enterprise, it being understood and agreed that "start-up" ventures and enterprises found by Landlord to lack sufficient maturity may be disapproved by Landlord.
(ii) The proposed use of the Premises by such proposed assignee or subtenant and the compatibility of such proposed use within the quality and nature of the other uses in the Building.
(iii) Any violation which the proposed use by such proposed assignee or subtenant would cause of any other rights granted by Landlord to Landlord's other tenants.
(iv) Whether there then exists any default by Tenant pursuant to this Lease or any non-payment or non-performance by Tenant under this Lease which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice, would constitute a default under this Lease.
(v) The business reputation, character, history and nature of the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant.
(vi) Whether the proposed assignee or subtenant is an existing tenant of Landlord or its affiliates, it being understood and agreed that Landlord will disapprove a subletting or assignment to such an existing tenant if (A) Landlord or its affiliates can reasonably meet such tenant's additional space requirements or (B) if Tenant proposes to charge less than the 100% Rental Rate.
(vii) Whether the proposed assignee or subtenant is a person or entity with whom Landlord or any of its affiliates have negotiated (within the past ninety days) or are actively negotiating for space, it being understood and agreed that Landlord will disapprove a subletting or assignment to such potential direct tenant. For the purposes hereof, negotiation shall mean that Landlord has submitted a written proposal to the prospective tenant.
(viii) Whether the proposed assignee or subtenant is a governmental entity or agency it being understood and agreed that Landlord will disapprove the proposed subletting or assignment as being inconsistent with the character of Landlord's tenancies.
Moreover, Landlord shall be entitled to be reasonably satisfied that each and every covenant, condition or obligation imposed upon Tenant by this Lease and each and every right, remedy or benefit afforded Landlord by this Lease is not impaired or diminished by such assignment or subletting. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the express standards and provisions set forth in this Lease dealing with assignment and subletting, including those set forth in this subparagraph (f) have been freely negotiated and are reasonable at the date hereof taking into account Tenant's proposed use of the Premises and the nature and quality of Landlord's real property. No withholding of consent by Landlord for any reason deemed sufficient by Landlord shall give rise to any claim by Tenant or any proposed assignee or subtenant or entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or to any abatement of rent. In this connection, Tenant hereby expressly waives its rights under California Civil Code Section 1995.310. Moreover, approval of any assignment of Tenant's interest shall, whether or not expressly so stated, be conditioned upon such assignee assuming in writing all obligations of Tenant hereunder.
(g) All options to extend, renew or expand, all exterior sign rights and all reserved, reduced cost or free parking rights, in each case if any, contained in this Lease are personal to Tenant or its affiliates. Consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not include consent to the assignment or transfer of any such rights or options with respect to the Premises or any other special privileges or extra services granted to Tenant by this Lease, any addendum or amendment hereto or any letter agreement. All such options, rights, privileges and extra services shall terminate upon such subletting or assignment unless Landlord specifically grants the same in writing to such assignee or subtenant.
12
(h) The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant or a mutual cancellation hereof shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of such subleases or subtenancies. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable costs and attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the processing and documentation of any such requested assignment, subletting, transfer, change of ownership or hypothecation of this Lease or Tenant's interest in and to the Premises.
(i) Landlord shall be permitted to hire outside contractors to review all assignment and subletting documents and information and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the actual and reasonable out-of-pocket cost thereof, including reasonable attorneys' fees, on demand.
Landlord reserves and shall at any time and all times have the right to enter the Premises to inspect the same, to supply janitorial service and any other service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder, to submit said Premises to prospective purchasers, tenants or actual or prospective lenders, to post notices of non-responsibility, to use and maintain pipes and conduits in and through the Premises, and to alter, improve or repair the Premises or any other portion of the Building, all without being deemed guilty of an eviction of Tenant and without abatement of rent, and may for that purpose erect scaffolding and other necessary structures where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, provided that the business of Tenant shall be interfered with as little as is reasonably practicable. Landlord may enter by means of a master key without liability to Tenant for any damage caused by Landlord entering the Premises, except for damage to Tenant's personal property caused by any failure of Landlord to exercise due care. Tenant shall not disturb any notices or other items placed by Landlord in the Premises. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and about the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises. Any lock installed by Tenant shall be of a type and style designated by Landlord concurrently with such installation. Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or any eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof. No provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as otherwise expressly agreed to be performed by Landlord.
(a) This Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder, at Landlord's election, shall be junior, subject, and subordinate to the lien of any ground or underlying lease, mortgage, deed of trust, and other security instrument of any kind now or hereafter covering the Premises or the Building, or any portion of any thereof, and to any and all advances made thereunder, interest thereon or costs incurred pursuant thereto (with respect to mortgages or deeds of trust) and any amendments, modifications, renewals, supplements, consolidations, replacements or extensions thereto. Such priority shall be established without the necessity of the execution and delivery of any further instruments on the part of Tenant to effect such subordination. Landlord or any ground lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary under a deed of trust may at any time cause such subordination by giving notice thereof to Tenant at least sixty (60) days before the subordination is to become effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant covenants and agrees to (a) execute and deliver upon demand such further instruments evidencing such subordination of this Lease or subordination of such mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease as may be requested by Landlord and (b) supply such financial information concerning Tenant as may be requested by any ground lessor or lender, prospective purchaser or Landlord, in connection with such subordination, within ten (10) business days after demand. If Tenant fails to execute such further instruments within ten (10) business days after demand, Landlord may execute such documents on behalf of Tenant as Tenant's attorney-in-fact. Tenant does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint Landlord as Tenant's attorney-in-fact and in Tenant's name, place and stead, to execute such instruments in accordance with this subparagraph. In addition, Tenant's failure to execute such further instruments within ten (10) business days after demand shall constitute a material breach of this Lease. Notwithstanding subordination by Tenant to any existing or future lienholder, Tenant's right to quiet possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed so long as Tenant shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of this Lease to be observed and performed by Tenant, unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to specific provisions relating thereto contained herein. In the event of the foreclosure of any such lien or encumbrance, Tenant shall attorn to the then owner who owns or acquires title to the Building and will recognize such owner as Landlord under this Lease. Tenant hereby waives any right to terminate this Lease because of any such foreclosure.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without the consent of Tenant, the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust or the beneficiary thereunder shall have the right to elect to be subject and subordinate to this Lease, with such subordination to be effective upon such terms and conditions as such holder or beneficiary may direct and which are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Paragraph 18.
(c) Tenant shall at any time and from time to time upon not less than twenty (20) days prior notice by Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), and the dates to which the Basic Annual Rent, Additional Rent and other charges have been paid in advance, if any, (ii) stating whether or not to the best knowledge of Tenant, Landlord is in default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default of which Tenant may have knowledge and (iii) acknowledging (if true) the accuracy of such other facts as are included in such statement by Landlord. Any such statement delivered pursuant to this subparagraph may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the fee of the Building or any mortgagee, ground lessor or other like encumbrancer thereof or any assignee of any such encumbrancer upon the Building. If Tenant fails to deliver such statement within such time, such failure shall, at Landlord's option, be deemed to be Tenant's irrevocable appointment of Landlord as Tenant's special attorney-in-fact in connection with the preparation and execution of any such statement and such execution by Landlord as Tenant's attorney-in-fact shall be conclusive upon Tenant that (A) this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord, (B) that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance, (C) that not more than one month's Basic Annual Rent has been paid in advance and (D) that any other statements of fact included by Landlord in the statement are correct. Tenant shall be liable for all loss, cost or expense resulting from the failure of any ground lease, sale or funding of any loan caused by any material misstatement contained in any estoppel certificate supplied by Tenant or resulting from failure of Tenant to deliver any such statement.
13
(d) In addition, and not in lieu of the foregoing, within ten (10) days after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit "D" attached hereto, indicating thereon any exceptions thereto which Tenant claims to exist at that time. Failure of Tenant to execute and deliver such certificate within such time period shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and the acknowledgment and agreement by Tenant that the statements included in Exhibit "D" are true and correct without exception.
(a) In the event of a sale, transfer or conveyance by Landlord of the Building, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any and all liability under this Lease. Tenant's right to quiet possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed so long as Tenant shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of this Lease to be observed and performed by Tenant, unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to specific provisions relating thereto contained herein. If any security deposit has been made by Tenant, Landlord may transfer the balance of such security deposit (after lawful deductions and in accordance with California Civil Code Section 1950.7), after notice to Tenant, to the purchaser, and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect thereto.
(a) Landlord's Nonliability. Subject to Paragraphs 20(j) and 21 below, Landlord and its partners, and their respective partners, officers, agents and employees shall not be liable for Tenant's loss of income or extra expense or for any damage to Tenant's property, nor for loss of damage to property by theft or otherwise, nor for any injury or damage which may be sustained by the person, goods, wares, merchandise or property of Tenant, its employees, invitees or customers or any other person in or about the Premises caused by or resulting from any peril which may affect the Premises, including without limitation fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, which may leak or flow from or into any part of the Premises, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of the pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures of the same, whether such damage or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Building, or from other sources. Landlord shall not be liable for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant or occupant of the Building or any of their officers, employees, agents, representatives, customers and invitees and Tenant hereby waives any such right it may have against Landlord. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord in case of fire or accidents in the Premises or of defects therein or in the fixtures or equipment. Any claim, defense, or other right of Tenant arising in connection with this Lease or with negotiations before this Lease was signed shall be barred unless Tenant files an action or interposes a defense based thereon within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the alleged event on which Tenant is basing its claim, defense or right.
(b) Indemnification. Subject to Paragraphs 20(j) and 21 below, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant shall indemnify, hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord, its agents and employees against any and all claims, losses, costs, damages, expenses or liabilities, including without limitation reasonable attorney's fees and costs of defense, for death of or any injury or damage to any person or property whatsoever, when such death, injury or damage has been caused in part or in whole by the act, neglect, fault, or omission of Tenant, its assignees, sublessees, agents, servants, employees or invitees or which arises from Tenant's use of the Premises or the conduct of Tenant's business. Tenant shall further indemnify, hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord, it's agents and employees against and from any and all claims arising from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant's part to be performed under the terms of this Lease. This indemnification provision shall not require payment as a condition precedent to recovery, and Tenant's defense obligation hereunder shall include the obligation, upon demand, to defend Landlord against any claim or action of the type herein specified by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. In addition, if any person not a party to this Lease shall institute any other type of action against Tenant in which Landlord, involuntarily and without cause, shall be made a party defendant and which is related to this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify, hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord from all liabilities by reason thereof.
14
(c) Tenant's Insurance. Tenant hereby agrees to maintain in full force and effect at all times during the term of this Lease, at its own expense, for the protection of Tenant and Landlord, as their interests may appear, policies of insurance which afford the following coverages:
(i) Workers' Compensation coverage as required by law, including United States Longshoremen and Harborworkers Act (if applicable), together with Employer's Liability coverage with a limit of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence.
(ii) Comprehensive General Liability or Commercial General Liability Insurance with respect to the Premises and the operations on or on behalf of Tenant in, on or about the Premises, including but not limited to Blanket Contractual Liability, Owners Protective, Broad Form Property Damage Liability Coverage, Personal Injury, Completed Operations, Products Liability (if applicable), Fire Legal Liability, Host Liquor Liability (or Liquor Liability, if applicable), protection and indemnity (if applicable) and Owned and Non-Owned Automobile Coverage in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence. The policy for such insurance shall contain the following provisions: (A) severability of interest; (B) cross liability; (C) an endorsement naming Landlord and any other parties in interest designated by Landlord as an additional insured; (D) an endorsement stating, in substance, "such insurance as is afforded by this policy for the benefit of the Landlord and any other additional insured shall be primary as respects to any liability or claims arising out of the occupancy of the Premises by the Tenant, or Tenant's operations and any insurance carried by Landlord, or any other additional insured shall be non-contributory;" (E) with respect to improvements or alterations permitted under this Lease, contingent liability and builder's risk insurance; (F) an endorsement allocating to the Premises the full amount of liability limits required by this Lease; (G) coverage must be on an "occurrence basis;" "Claims Made" forms are not acceptable; and (H) an aggregate limit of no less than $3,000,000 per annum available for occurrences at the Premises, if such policy has an aggregate limit.
(iii) Insurance providing protection against "All Risks" of physical loss, including without limitation insurance against fire, theft, burglary, structural collapse, sprinkler leakage, earthquake and flood (if required by a lender holding a security interest in the Building), vandalism and malicious mischief, in an amount sufficient to cover the full cost of replacement (with no deductible for depreciation and with the understanding that such amount shall be adjusted not more frequently than on an annual basis) of all improvements and betterments to the Premises, all of Tenant's fixtures, furnishings, equipment, furniture, trade fixtures and other personal property located or used in the Premises and loss of income or extra expense including losses resulting from an interruption in or failure of the Intrabuilding Network Cabling. All policies of such insurance shall contain no coinsurance or contribution provisions and shall name Landlord and the lending institution(s), if any, as additional insureds and/or loss payable in accordance with such lender's or lenders' requirements. For the purposes of this subparagraph (iii), the Premises shall consist of the Rentable Area shown in the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit "A-1," and consist of the cubic space spanning from the floor slab to the bottom surface of the floor slab of the floor immediately above the Premises (the "upper slab"), without any offsets or deductions for columns and other structural portions of the Building or vertical penetrations that are included for the special use of Tenant. Such cubic space shall include the plenum space which is bounded by the lower surface of the upper slab and the suspended ceiling of the Premises. The proceeds of such insurance, so long as this Lease remains in effect, shall be used to repair or replace the improvements, trade fixtures and personal property in the Premises so insured. Upon any termination of this Lease pursuant to Paragraph 14(a) above, the proceeds of such insurance relating to improvements to the Premises shall be the property of Landlord.
(iv) Loss of income or business interruption insurance providing protection against any peril included within the classification "All Risk," including but not limited to insurance against sprinkler leakage.
The minimum limit of the coverage provided in division (ii) above shall be adjusted upward only at the expiration of each third (3rd) full calendar year as follows: Not less that sixty (60) days prior to the relevant adjustment date, Landlord shall request such insurance brokerage firm as is then placing insurance for Landlord (the "Reviewing Broker") to review Tenant's then existing liability insurance coverage, to review the then use of the Premises and the claims history with respect thereto and to recommend, in writing, the amount of coverage to be carried by Tenant pursuant to division (ii). Such recommendation shall be based upon the then use of the Premises and the liability claims history with respect to the Premises and shall be certified by the Reviewing Broker to be consistent with amounts of coverage generally recommended by such Reviewing Broker for similar types of tenants or users of property with uses similar to that of the Premises in the geographical area which includes the Premises. If the Reviewing Broker shall recommend an increase(s) in the amount of coverage then provided by Tenant under division (ii), Tenant shall promptly increase its coverage to the recommended amount(s). In no event shall there by any reduction in the amount of coverage provided by Tenant under division (ii) below the initial amounts set forth herein, notwithstanding any recommendation by the Reviewing Broker. The failure of the Reviewing Broker to require any additional insurance coverage shall not be deemed to relieve Tenant from any obligations under this Lease.
(d) Deductibles. Tenant may, with the written consent of Landlord, elect to have reasonable deductibles in connection with the policies of insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under subparagraph (c)(iii).
(e) Certificates of Insurance. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the time such insurance is first required to be carried by Tenant, and thereafter at least thirty (30) days prior to the renewal date or expiration of each such policy, Certificates of Insurance evidencing the above coverage with limits not less than those specified above. Such Certificates, with the exception of Workers' Compensation, shall add Landlord and each of its partners, and its and their subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, officers, directors, agents, employees, lenders and other persons or entities designated by Landlord and having an insurable interest in the Premises as additional insureds and shall expressly provide that the interest of same therein shall not be affected by any breach by Tenant of any policy provision for which such Certificates evidence coverage. Neither Landlord nor any other person or entity named as an additional insured pursuant to this subparagraph shall have any obligation under such policies, such as payment of premiums, giving of notices and the like. Further, all Certificates shall expressly provide that not less than thirty (30) days prior unqualified written notice shall be given to Landlord or Landlord's lender in the event of material alteration to, non-renewal of, or cancellation of the coverages evidenced by such Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may, at any time, from time to time, inspect and/or copy and approve any and all insurance policies required hereunder.
15
(f) Landlord's Insurance. Landlord shall at all times during the term of this Lease maintain in effect a policy or policies of (i) "All Risk" insurance, together with sprinkler leakage and vandalism and malicious mischief coverage, covering the Building, including Landlord's interest in all tenant improvements in the Premises, and (ii) Lessor's "Risk Only" Liability Insurance. Landlord may also, but shall not be required to, maintain flood and earthquake insurance with respect to the Building, rental interruption insurance assuring that the rent under this Lease will be paid to Landlord for a period of not less than twelve (12) months if the Premises are destroyed or rendered inaccessible by a risk insured against under the foregoing coverage, and any other types of insurance that Landlord, in its business judgment, may determine is necessary or desirable to obtain. The cost of all such insurance shall be included in the Operating Expenses to be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 3.
(g) Increase in Coverage. Upon demand, Tenant shall provide Landlord, at Tenant's expense, with such increased amount of existing insurance, and such other insurance in such limits, as Landlord may require and such other hazard insurance as the nature and condition of the Premises may require in the sole judgment of Landlord to afford Landlord adequate protection for risks of Tenant to be insured hereunder.
(h) No Co-Insurance. If on account of the failure of Tenant to comply with the provisions of this Paragraph, Landlord or any additional insured is adjudged a coinsurer by its insurance carrier, then any loss or damage Landlord or such additional insured shall sustain by reason thereof shall be borne by Tenant and shall be immediately paid by Tenant upon receipt of a xxxx therefor and evidence of such loss.
(i) Insurance Limits. Landlord makes no representation that the limits of liability specified to be carried by Tenant under the terms of this Lease are adequate to protect Tenant against Tenant's undertakings under this Lease. In the event Tenant believes that any such insurance coverage called for under this Lease is insufficient, Tenant shall provide, at its own expense, such additional insurance as Tenant deems adequate. In no event shall the limits of any coverage maintained by Tenant pursuant to this Paragraph 20 be considered as limiting Tenant's liability under this Lease.
(j) Landlord's Negligence. Nothing contained herein shall operate to relieve Landlord from any loss, damage, injury, liability, claim, cost or expense which it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction was proximately caused by its willful misconduct or its own sole negligence or the sole negligence of its agents or employees.
(k) General Requirements. All insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall be with companies rated A:XI, or better, in the then most recent edition of Best's Insurance Guide and licensed to provide the relevant insurance in the State of California. Such insurance shall be primary insurance (and not "excess over") as respects Landlord and any other additional insured(s) designated by Landlord and not contributory with any other available insurance. All policies of such insurance shall each contain an unqualified provision that the insurer will not cancel, deny renewal or materially amend the coverage provided by such policy without first giving Landlord and any additional insured(s) thirty (30) days prior written notice. All policies and certificates delivered by Tenant pursuant to this Paragraph shall contain liability limits not less than those set forth herein, shall list the additional insured(s) and shall specify all endorsements and special coverages required by this Paragraph. Any insurance required to be maintained by Tenant may be maintained by Tenant pursuant to so-called "blanket" policies of insurance so long as (i) the Premises is specifically identified therein (by rider, endorsement or otherwise) as included in the coverage provided, (ii) the limits of the policy are applicable on a "per location" basis to the Premises and (iii) such policies otherwise comply with the provision of this Lease. The term "term of this Lease" shall mean, for the purposes of this Paragraph, the period commencing on the date Tenant is given access to the Premises for any purpose through the later of the expiration or termination of the Lease term or the date Tenant surrenders physical possession of the Premises to Landlord. With respect to the Comprehensive General Liability insurance required to be obtained by Tenant under this Lease, the foregoing general requirements are subject to the specific requirements set forth in subparagraph (c)(ii), above.
(l) Landlord's Self Help Right. In the event that Tenant fails to procure, maintain and/or pay for at the times and for the durations specified in this Lease, any insurance required by this Paragraph, or fails to carry insurance required by any governmental requirement, Landlord may (but without obligation to do so) at any time or from time to time, and without notice, procure such insurance and Tenant agrees to pay the sums so paid by Landlord together with interest thereon at the interest rate set forth in Paragraph 37(a) below, and any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, within ten (10) days following Landlord's written demand to Tenant for such payment.
Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives on behalf of themselves and their respective insurance carriers any and all rights of recovery against the other, and against any other tenant or occupant of the Building and against the officers, employees, agents, representatives, customers and invitees of such other party and of such other tenant or occupant of the Building for loss of or damage to such waiving party or its property or the property of others under its control, to the extent that such loss or damage is insured against under any policy of insurance required to be carried by such waiving party pursuant to the provisions of this Lease (or any other policy of insurance carried by such waiving party in lieu thereof) at the time of such loss or damage. The foregoing waiver shall be effective whether or not a waiving party shall actually obtain and maintain the insurance which such waiving party is required to obtain and maintain pursuant to this Lease (or any substitute therefor). The policies of insurance which Landlord and Tenant are required to maintain under this Lease shall provide that the insurance company shall waive all right of recovery by way of subrogation against either Landlord or Tenant in connection with any damage covered by the subject policy.
16
In the event of any legal action or proceeding brought by either party against the other arising out of this Lease or in which this Lease is asserted as a defense, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in such action in an amount determined by the court, in addition to its costs incurred in such action, and such amounts shall be included in any judgment rendered in such action or proceeding. For purposes of this provision, in any unlawful detainer or other action or proceeding instituted by Landlord based upon any default or alleged default of Tenant hereunder, Landlord shall be deemed the prevailing party if (a) judgment is entered in favor of Landlord or (b) prior to trial or judgment Tenant shall pay all or any portion of the rent claimed by Landlord, eliminate the condition(s), cease the act(s) or otherwise cure the omission(s) claimed by Landlord to constitute a default by Tenant hereunder. If Landlord engages an attorney due to any failure by Tenant to comply with this Lease but no legal action or proceeding is commenced, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord's reasonable attorney fees and costs related to such matter. If Landlord becomes involved in any litigation or dispute, threatened or actual, by or against anyone not a party to the Lease, but arising by reason of or related to any act of omission of Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in connection with the litigation or dispute regardless of whether a lawsuit is actually filed.
No waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or of any breach by Tenant hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision hereof, or of any subsequent breach by Tenant of the same or any other provision. Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act of Tenant. Furthermore, any custom or practice which may develop between the parties in the administration of this Lease shall not be construed to waive or lessen the right of Landlord to insist upon the performance by Tenant in strict accordance with all of the terms, covenants, agreements, conditions, and provisions of this Lease. No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord's agents during the term of this Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, unless done in a writing signed by Landlord. Tenant's delivery of keys to any employee or agent of Landlord shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises unless done pursuant to a written agreement to such effect executed by Landlord. The acceptance of any rent by Landlord following a breach of this Lease by Tenant shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of such breach (other than the failure to pay the particular rent so accepted) or any other breach unless such waiver is expressly stated in a writing signed by Landlord. The acceptance of any payment from a debtor in possession, a trustee, a receiver or any other person acting on behalf of Tenant or Tenant's estate shall not waive or cure a default under Paragraph 26(A)(vi) or waive the provisions of Paragraphs 16 or 25.
All notices, requests, payments, consents or approvals ("notices") which Landlord or Tenant may be required, or may desire, to serve on the other shall be in writing and may be served, by personal service or as an alternative to personal service, by mailing the same by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, addressed as set forth in Item 13 of the Basic Lease Provisions, or addressed to such other address or addresses as either Landlord or Tenant may from time to time designate to the other in the manner provided for herein. All notices shall be deemed effective upon receipt. If personally delivered, notices shall be deemed received at the time of delivery. If any notice is sent by mail, the same shall be deemed delivered and received on the date of receipt or refusal indicated on the return receipt. Any notice provided for herein may also be sent by facsimile transmission or by any reputable overnight courier so long as written confirmation of delivery of such notice is obtained by the sender. In either of these cases, a confirmation copy of such notice shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, and such notice shall be deemed to be received one day after it is sent.
In no event shall this Lease be assigned or assignable by operation of law and in no event shall this Lease be an asset of Tenant in any receivership, bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization proceeding.
(a) The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:
(i) Any failure by Tenant to pay the rent or to make any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder at the time specified for payment. Landlord shall give Tenant three (3) days written notice of any such default, which notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under Section 1161, et seq., of the California Code of Civil Procedure, as amended;
17
(ii) The abandonment or vacation of the Premises by Tenant. Abandonment is herein defined to include, but is not limited to, any absence by Tenant from the Premises for five (5) days or longer, without notice from Landlord being required and regardless of whether Tenant is otherwise in default under this Lease;
(iii) Any failure by Tenant to observe and perform any other provision of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, where such failure continues for ten (10) days (except where a different period of time is specified in this Lease) after written notice by Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under Section 1161, et seq., of the California Code of Civil Procedure, as amended. If the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within such ten (10) day period, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall within such period commence such cure and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion;
(iv) Tenant makes or has made or furnishes or has furnished any warranty, representation or statement to Landlord in connection with this Lease, or any other agreement to which Tenant and Landlord are parties, which is or was false or misleading in any material respect when made or furnished;
(v) Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 16(h) above, any substantial portion of the assets of Tenant is transferred, or any material obligation is incurred by Tenant, unless such transfer or obligation is incurred in the ordinary course of Tenant's business, or in good faith for fair equivalent consideration, or with Landlord's consent; and/or
(vi) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or of a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within sixty (60) days; the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within sixty (60) days; or Tenant's convening of a meeting of its creditors or any class thereof for the purpose of effecting a moratorium upon or composition of its debts.
(b) In the event of any such default by Tenant, then in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss which Tenant proves reasonably could have been avoided; plus
(iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term of this Lease after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves reasonably could have been avoided; plus
(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 any amount expended by Landlord to mitigate damages; plus
(v) the unamortized value of the Building Standard Work (as described in Exhibit "B") made to the Premises, calculated by reference to the length of the term of the Lease that would have remained had the Lease not been terminated; plus
(vi) the amount of rent, if any, that is postponed or abated, as well as the amount of any other rent or operating concession, any lease take over obligation assumed by Landlord, any lease subsidy paid by Landlord or any other bonus, lease cancellation payment, inducement or concession for Tenant's entering into this Lease; and
(vii) at Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable California law.
(c) As used in subparagraphs (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the rate determined pursuant to Paragraph 37 below. As used in subparagraph (b)(iii) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
(d) In the event of any default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right, with or without terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises. Such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant, all in accordance with applicable California law.
18
(e) In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant or in the event that Landlord shall elect to re-enter as provided above or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in this Xxxxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, either recover all rental as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. Election by Landlord to proceed pursuant to this subparagraph shall be made upon written notice to Tenant and shall be deemed an election of the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 and, unless Landlord relets the Premises, Tenant shall have the right to sublet or assign subject to the prior written consent of Landlord. Such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of Paragraph 16.
(f) In the event that Landlord shall elect to so relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future amounts as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should the rent for such reletting, during any month for which the payment of rent is required hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord immediately upon demand therefor by Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(g) No re-entry, removal of property or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph 26 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Furthermore, neither Landlord's acts of maintenance or preservation nor its efforts to relet nor the appointment of a receiver to collect rents shall constitute a termination of Tenant's right to possession unless a written notice of such intention is provided by Landlord to Tenant. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of any default by Tenant, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such default.
(h) In any action for unlawful detainer commenced by Landlord against Tenant by reason of any default hereunder, the reasonable rental value of the Premises for the period of the unlawful detainer shall be the amount of rent reserved in this Lease for such period, unless Landlord or Tenant shall prove to the contrary by competent evidence. The rights and remedies reserved to Landlord herein, including those not specifically described, shall be cumulative and, except as otherwise provided by California statutory law in effect at the time, Landlord may pursue any or all of such rights and remedies, or any other right available at law or equity, at the same time or otherwise. Without limitation, Tenant acknowledges that Tenant's failure to timely comply with the requirements of Paragraph 18(a) may result in a lender refusing to loan Landlord funds or a buyer refusing to purchase the Building on favorable terms (or at all), causing Landlord substantial monetary damages.
(i) All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and without any abatement of rent. If Tenant fails to pay any sum of money, other than rent, required to be paid by it or fails to perform any other act on its part to be performed, and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period set forth in the Paragraph providing for such obligation (or if no grace period is set forth in such Paragraph, then the applicable grace period pursuant to this Paragraph 26), then in addition to any other remedies provided herein Landlord may, but shall not be obligated so to do, without curing such default or waiving or releasing Tenant from any of its obligations, make any such payment or perform any such other act on Tenant's part, including the removal of any offending signs. Landlord's election to make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant's part shall not give rise to any responsibility of Landlord to continue making the same or similar payments or performing the same or similar acts. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor by Landlord, reimburse Landlord for all sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs, together with interest thereon at the rate determined under Paragraph 37, accruing from the date of such payment by Landlord; and Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies in the event of failure by Tenant to pay such amounts as Landlord would have in the event of a default by Tenant in payment of rent.
(j) Tenant hereby waives, for itself and all persons claiming by and under Tenant, all rights and privileges which it might have had under any present or future law, to redeem the Premises or to continue the Lease after being dispossessed or ejected from the Premises.
Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises immediately after the expiration of the Lease term or termination of the Lease. If Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof without the express written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall (a) become a tenant at sufferance only at the greater of (i) two hundred percent (200%) of the Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent then in effect, or (ii) two hundred percent (200%) of the then current market rent in the Building (Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent) by reference to recent comparable transactions entered into by Landlord and otherwise upon the terms, covenants and conditions herein specified, so far as applicable, (b) pay all damages sustained by Landlord by reason of such holding over and (c) indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any loss or liability resulting from such holding over, including, but not limited to, any amounts required to be paid to any tenant or prospective tenant who was to have occupied the Premises after said termination or expiration and any related attorneys' fees and brokerage commissions. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after such expiration or earlier termination shall not constitute a consent to a holdover hereunder, but shall create only a month-to-month tenancy terminable at the end of any calendar month by not less than ten (10) days written notice given by either party to the other party. Further, no payment of money by Tenant to Landlord after the termination of this Lease by Landlord, or after the giving of any notice of termination to Tenant by Landlord which Landlord is entitled to give Tenant under this Lease, shall reinstate, continue or extend the term of this Lease or shall affect any such notice given to Tenant prior to the payment of such money, it being agreed that after the service of such notice or the commencement of any suit by Landlord to obtain possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect when due any and all payments owed by Tenant under the Lease, and otherwise exercise its rights and remedies. The making of any such payments by Tenant shall not waive such notice, or in any manner affect any pending suit or judgment obtained. The foregoing provisions of this Paragraph are in addition to and do not affect Landlord's right of re-entry or any other rights of Landlord hereunder or as otherwise provided by law.
19
Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises or the Building or with respect to the suitability of any part of the Building for the conduct of Tenant's business. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Building were at such time in good and sanitary order, condition and repair. Landlord and its agents shall not be liable for any latent defect in the Premises or in the Building. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord in case of fire or accidents in the Premises or in the Building, or of defects therein or in the fixtures and equipment.
Upon Tenant's paying the rent hereunder and observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Tenant's part to be observed and performed hereunder, Tenant shall have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire term hereof, subject to all the provisions of this Lease.
(a) Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense, place its signs displaying its logo and graphics on the entrance doors to the Premises and in hallways or elevator lobbies on floors wholly leased by Tenant. On partial floors leased by Tenant, Tenant, at Landlord's initial cost and thereafter at Tenant's sole cost and expense, may place Landlord's standard sign on entrance doors to the Premises which will conform to Landlord's graphics program for the Building.
(b) Landlord at its own cost and expense shall place a directory board in the Building lobby. Landlord shall cause Tenant's name to be affixed thereto, at Landlord's initial cost and thereafter at Tenant's cost. Tenant may utilize one line per one thousand square feet of Rentable Area of the Premises.
(c) Unless specifically set forth to the contrary in an addendum to this Lease, Tenant shall not place any sign on the exterior of the Building, or within the Building if such sign may be seen from outside of the Building or on any Building sign monument or other device constructed for the placement of tenant signs.
(d) All Tenant signs installed by Landlord or Tenant shall comply with all applicable requirements of all governmental authorities having jurisdiction and shall be installed in a good and workmanlike manner. Such signs shall be maintained and kept in good repair at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
This Lease shall be governed by and construed pursuant to the laws of the State of California, and the venue of any action or proceeding under this Lease shall be Orange County, California.
Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right, in common with Landlord and other tenants and occupants of the Building and their employees, agents and business visitors, to the use of all common facilities which constitute a part of the Building, subject to such reasonable rules and regulations relating to such use as Landlord may from time to time establish. Common facilities located within the Building include any building lobby, elevators, rest rooms, stairways and stairwells, elevator lobbies and all common entrances, corridors, passageways and serviceways which are not located within the Premises of Tenant or the premises of another tenant of the Building. Common facilities located outside of the Building include landscaping, hardscaping and any fountains adjacent to the Building, a parking structure (the "Building Parking Structure"), all sidewalks, driveways, vehicle and pedestrian entrances and accessways, loading docks, truck tunnels, truck parking and truck turn-around areas, vehicle and pedestrian ramps serving the Building and any pedestrian walkway connecting the Building and the Building Parking Structure. Landlord may make changes at any time and from time to time to the common facilities, without any liability to Tenant, and no such change shall entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent. Landlord shall at all times have the sole and exclusive control of the common facilities. To the extent that any common facilities located outside of the Building are maintained jointly or for the common benefit of Landlord and the owners of adjacent structures, (i) Tenant's non-exclusive right of use of such common facilities shall be in common with Landlord, other tenants and occupants of and visitors to the Building and the owners, tenants, occupants of and visitors to such other structures and (ii) Operating Expenses for purposes of Paragraph 3 shall include only that portion of the operating expenses of such common facilities as are allocated to the Building from time to time by agreement among Landlord and the owners of such other structures. During the term and subject to availability, Tenant's principals and employees shall be entitled to purchase contracts for reserved and random select parking at the prevailing price offered by the operator of the Building Parking Structure which such prices are currently $175/month for a reserved space contract and $90/month for a random select parking contract. Parking privileges shall be subject to compliance with all rules and regulations applicable thereto as designated by Landlord or the operator of the Parking Structure.
20
Tenant shall keep all common facilities free and clear of any obstructions created or permitted by Tenant or resulting from Tenant's operations and shall not conduct an assembly on the common facilities without Landlord's prior consent. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Landlord at any time to remove any persons not authorized to use the common facilities or to prevent the use of such facilities by unauthorized persons. Landlord reserves the right, from time to time, to (A) make alterations in or additions to the common facilities, including without limitation, constructing new structures or changing the location, size, shape and/or number of the driveways, entrances, parking spaces, parking areas, loading and unloading areas, landscape areas and walkways, (B) close temporarily any of the common facilities of the Building for maintenance purposes as long as reasonable access to the Premises remains available, (C) designate property to be included in or eliminate property from the common facilities of the Building, and (D) use the common facilities of the Building while engaged in making alterations in or additions or repairs to the Building.
Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all of the covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
Tenant warrants that it has had no dealings with any real estate broker or agent in connection with the negotiation of this Lease, excepting only the broker(s) named in Item 10 of the Basic Lease Provisions, if any, and that it knows of no other real estate broker or agent who is or might be entitled to a commission in connection with this Lease. Landlord covenants and agrees to pay all real estate commissions due in connection with this Lease to such named broker(s), but only at such time(s) and in such amount(s) as are agreed in writing between Landlord and such broker. Tenant agrees to pay and hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord against any cost, expense or liability for any compensation claimed by any broker, finder or agent employed or claiming to have been employed by Tenant in connection with this Lease or with the negotiation of this Lease. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that payment shall not be a condition precedent to recovery upon the foregoing indemnification provision.
Tenant shall not, without the written consent of Landlord, use the name, insignia or logotype of the Building for any purpose other than as the address of the business to be conducted by Tenant in the Premises, and in no event shall Tenant acquire any rights in or to such name, insignia and/or logotype. Furthermore, Tenant shall not use any picture of the Building in its advertising, stationery or in any other manner. Tenant shall, when referring to the Building, refer to the Building by the name or address assigned thereto, from time to time, by Landlord. References to the Building and its location shall not be made by Tenant in any other manner. Landlord expressly reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time to change the name, insignia, logotype or street address of the Building without in any manner being liable to Tenant.
Submission of this instrument for examination, negotiation or signature by Tenant does not constitute an offer to lease or a reservation of the Premises for Tenant or an option for Tenant to lease the Premises, and it is not effective as a Lease or otherwise until at least one counterpart, duly executed by authorized persons of Landlord and Tenant, has been delivered to each party thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant acknowledges that this Lease and any material amendments hereto are subject to the approval of Landlord's lender with respect to the Building. Promptly upon execution of this Lease by Tenant, Landlord shall submit the same to its lender for approval. Delivery by Landlord to Tenant of a copy of this Lease or of any amendment hereto fully executed by Landlord and Tenant shall constitute notice to Tenant that Landlord has obtained the approval of its lender with respect to this Lease or such amendment.
(a) Any amount due from Tenant to Landlord which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum rate per annum which Landlord is permitted by law to charge, from the date such payment is due until paid, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. Such rate shall remain in effect after the occurrence of any breach or default hereunder by Tenant to and until payment of the entire amount due.
(b) In the event Tenant is more than ten (10) days late in paying any installment of rent due under this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the delinquent installment of rent, provided that in no event shall the amount of such late charge be less than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00). The parties agree that it would be impractical or extremely difficult to fix Landlord's actual damages due to a late payment by Tenant and that the amount of such late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the cost and expense that would be incurred by Landlord in processing each delinquent payment of rent by Tenant and that such late charge shall be paid to Landlord as liquidated damages for each delinquent payment pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1671. The parties further agree that the payment of late charges and the payment of interest provided for in subparagraph (a) above are distinct and separate from one another in that the payment of interest is to compensate Landlord for the use of Landlord's money by Tenant, while the payment of a late charge is to compensate Landlord for the additional administrative expense incurred by Landlord in handling and processing delinquent payments. It is understood that the payment of any late charge by Tenant and the acceptance thereof by Landlord shall not be deemed a waiver by Landlord of its rights regarding any default by Tenant under this Lease.
21
(c) After the second late payment in any calendar year, in addition to all of its other remedies, Landlord shall have the option to require that (i) beginning with the first payment of rent next due, rent shall no longer be paid in monthly installments but shall be payable quarterly, three (3) months in advance and/or (ii) to require the payment of a security deposit equal to three (3) months rent (Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent).
(d) Should Tenant deliver to Landlord, at any time during the term, two (2) or more insufficient checks, Landlord may require that all monies then and thereafter due from Tenant be paid to Landlord by cashier's check.
Time is of the essence of this Lease with respect to the performance of every provision of this Lease in which time of performance is a factor.
The words "Landlord" and "Tenant" as used herein shall each include the plural as well as the singular and, when applicable, shall refer to actions taken by their respective representatives. If more than one person is named as Tenant the obligations of such persons are joint and several. The headings to the Paragraphs of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretations of any part hereof.
This Lease and the exhibits and any addenda hereto contain all of the agreements of the parties hereto with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior agreement, understanding or representation pertaining to any such matter shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Lease may be amended or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest, and consented to in writing by any lender designated by Landlord holding a secured interest in the Building. No verbal agreement or implied covenant shall be held to vary the terms hereof, any statute, law or custom to the contrary notwithstanding. No employee or agent of Landlord shall have authority, by letter, memorandum or other written communication, to amend, vary or delete any provision of this Lease or any exhibit hereto, unless such written instrument bears the signature of Landlord. If any term or provision of this Lease the deletion of which would not adversely affect the receipt of any material benefit by either party hereunder shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(a) Tenant and its employees shall comply with South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 2202 (formerly known as Regulation 15) and any other environmental regulation and/or program now or hereafter applicable to the Building. Landlord and Tenant agree to cooperate and use their best efforts to participate in governmentally mandated and voluntary traffic management programs generally applicable to businesses located in Costa Mesa, California or to the Building and, initially, shall encourage and support van and car pooling by office workers and service employees and shall encourage and support staggered and flexible working hours for employees to the fullest extent permitted by the requirements of Tenant's business. Neither this Paragraph nor any other provision in this Lease, however, is intended to or shall create any rights or benefits in any other person, firm, company, governmental entity or the public.
(b) Landlord and Tenant agree to cooperate and use their best efforts to comply with any and all guidelines or controls imposed upon either Landlord or Tenant by federal or state governmental organizations or by any energy conservation association to which Landlord is a party concerning energy management.
(c) All costs, fees and assessments and other charges paid by Landlord to any governmental authority or voluntary association in connection with any program of the types described in this Paragraph, and all costs and fees paid by Landlord to any governmental authority, voluntary association or third party pursuant to or to implement any such program, shall be included in Operating Expenses for the purpose of Paragraph 3, whether or not specifically listed in such Paragraph. Any breach by Tenant of any of its covenants in this Paragraph 41 may result in penalties or fees being assessed against Landlord or the Building. These penalties or fees shall not be part of Operating Expenses but instead shall be payable by Tenant on demand of Landlord.
Each individual executing this Lease on behalf of Landlord and Tenant represents and warrants that the execution and delivery of this Lease on behalf of the party for whom such person is executing is duly authorized, that he or she is authorized to execute and deliver this Lease and that this Lease is binding upon such party in accordance with its terms. If Tenant is a corporation, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after execution of this Lease, deliver to Landlord a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of Tenant or any executive committee thereof authorizing or ratifying the execution of this Lease. Failure of Tenant to provide such resolution shall not, however, relieve Tenant of its obligations pursuant to this Lease. If Tenant is a partnership or trust, Tenant shall deliver those certificates or written assurances from the partnership or trust as Landlord may reasonably request.
22
Any diminution or shutting off of light, air or view by any structure which may be erected on lands adjacent to the Building shall in no way affect this Lease, xxxxx any payment owed by Tenant under the Lease, or otherwise impose any liability on Landlord.
Landlord and Tenant agree that the terms of this Lease are confidential and constitute proprietary information of the parties hereto.
