Sublessor and Sublessee agree that the rentable square footage of the Subleased Premises is 6,920 and shall not be subject to remeasurement during the Term.

3. Term:

A. Term. The term (the “Term”) of this Sublease shall be for the period commencing on July 1, 2009 (the “Commencement Date”) and ending at noon on October 31, 2012 (the “Expiration Date”), unless this Sublease is sooner terminated pursuant to its terms or the Master Lease is sooner terminated pursuant to its terms.

B. Early Possession. Sublessee may have early access to the Subleased Premises prior to the Commencement Date solely for the purpose of preparing the Subleased Premises for occupancy (and not for the conduct of business therein), provided that such occupancy (i) shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Sublease, except for the obligation to pay Base Rent (as defined below); (ii) shall not advance the Expiration Date of this Sublease; (iii) shall not occur until Master Lessor’s written consent hereto is provided; (iv) shall not interfere with Sublessor’s Work (defined below); and (v) shall not occur until Sublessee has delivered to Sublessor evidence that it is carrying all insurance required under this Sublease and has paid to Sublessor the first month’s Base Rent and Security Deposit as required hereunder.

A. Base Rent. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor as base rent for the Subleased Premises for each month during the Term (“Base Rent”) in the amount set forth in the chart below.


Term	Base Rent Per Month
July 1, 2009 – December 31, 2009	$	0
January 1, 2010 – August 31, 2010	$	6,000.00
September 1, 2010 – August 31, 2011	$	12,000.00
September 1, 2011 – October 31, 2012	$	12,500.00

Base Rent and Additional Rent, as defined in Paragraph 4.B below, shall be paid on or before the first (1st) day of each month. Base Rent and Additional Rent for any period during the Term hereof which is for less than one (1) month of the Term shall be a pro rata portion of the monthly installment based on a thirty (30) day month. If an increase in Base Rent becomes effective on a date other than the first day of a calendar month, the Base Rent for that month shall be the sum of the two applicable rates, each prorated for the portion of the month during which the rate is in effect. Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be payable without notice or demand and without any deduction, offset, or abatement, in lawful money of the United States of America. Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be paid directly to Sublessor at 0000 X. Xxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxx #000, Xx. Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000, Attn: Accounts Receivable, or such other address as may be designated in writing by Sublessor.

B. Additional Rent. All monies other than Base Rent and the Security Deposit required to be paid by Sublessor under the Master Lease as to the Subleased Premises shall be paid by Sublessee hereunder as and when such amounts are due under the Master Lease, as incorporated herein. All such amounts shall be deemed additional rent (“Additional Rent”); provided, however that Sublessee shall only be liable for any amounts payable by Sublessor to Master Lessor as “Operating Expenses”, “Real Estate Taxes” and “Utilities” (as defined in Section 4.2 of the Master Lease) to the extent the same are in excess of any amounts payable by Sublessor in calendar year 2009 (the “Base Year”). Base Rent and Additional Rent hereinafter collectively shall be referred to as “Rent”. Sublessee and Sublessor agree, as a material part of the consideration given by Sublessee to Sublessor for this Sublease, subject to the Base Year above, that Sublessee shall pay all costs, expenses, taxes, insurance, maintenance and other charges of every kind and nature arising in connection with this Sublease, the Master Lease as to the Subleased Premises or the Subleased Premises, such that Sublessor shall receive, as a net consideration for this Sublease, the Base Rent payable under Paragraph 4.A. hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any cost or expense is incurred under the Master Lease for Sublessee’s sole benefit (including the disproportionate use of utilities or dedicated HVAC units) or as a result of Sublessee’s request for certain services (such as after hours HVAC charges), Sublessee shall pay the entire cost thereof.

C. Payment of First Month’s Rent. Upon execution hereof by Sublessee, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor the sum of Six Thousand Dollars ($6,000), which shall constitute Base Rent for the seventh month of the Term.

5. Security Deposit: Upon execution hereof by Sublessee, Sublessee shall deposit with Sublessor the sum of Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($12,500) (the “Security Deposit”), in cash or in the form of an irrevocable standby letter of credit. If the Security Deposit is in the form of

-2-

a letter of credit, the Security Deposit shall be governed by the terms and conditions of Section 5.1 of the Master Lease, as incorporated herein. If the Security Deposit is in the form of cash, the following provisions shall apply: If Sublessee fails to pay Rent or other charges due hereunder or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Sublease, then Sublessor may draw upon, use, apply or retain all or any portion of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or other charge in default, for the payment of any other sum which Sublessor has become obligated to pay by reason of Sublessee’s default, or to compensate Sublessor for any loss or damage which Sublessor has suffered thereby. If Sublessor so uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, then Sublessee, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, shall deposit cash with Sublessor in the amount required to restore the Security Deposit to the full amount stated above. Upon the expiration of this Sublease, if Sublessee is not in default, Sublessor shall return to Sublessee so much of the Security Deposit as has not been applied by Sublessor pursuant to this paragraph, or which is not otherwise required to cure Sublessee’s defaults.

6. Holdover: The parties hereby acknowledge that the expiration date of the Master Lease is October 31, 2012 and that it is therefore critical that Sublessee surrender the Subleased Premises to Sublessor no later than the Expiration Date in accordance with the terms of this Sublease. In the event that Sublessee does not surrender the Subleased Premises by the Expiration Date in accordance with this Sublease, Sublessee shall pay holdover rent as provided in Section 26 of the Master Lease and shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Sublessor from and against all loss and liability resulting from Sublessee’s delay in surrendering the Subleased Premises and pay Sublessor holdover rent as set forth in the Master Lease.

7. Repairs: Sublessor shall deliver the Subleased Premises to Sublessee in excellent clean condition. The parties acknowledge and agree that Sublessee is subleasing the Subleased Premises on an “as is” basis, and that, except as expressly set forth in this Sublease, Sublessor has made no representations or warranties with respect to the condition of the Subleased Premises as of the Commencement Date. Except as set forth in Paragraph 11, Sublessor shall have no obligation whatsoever to make or pay the cost of any alterations, improvements or repairs to the Subleased Premises, including, without limitation, any improvement or repair required to comply with any law, regulation, building code or ordinance. Master Lessor shall be solely responsible for performance of any repairs required to be performed by Master Lessor under the terms of the Master Lease.

8. Assignment and Subletting. Sublessee may not assign this Sublease, sublet the Subleased Premises, transfer any interest of Sublessee therein or permit any use of the Subleased Premises by another party (collectively, “Transfer”), without the prior written consent of Sublessor and Master Lessor. Sublessee acknowledges that the Master Lease contains a “recapture” right in Section 17.3, and that Sublessor may withhold consent to a proposed Transfer in its sole discretion unless Master Lessor confirms in writing that the recapture right does not apply to the Subleased Premises or otherwise waives such right. Any Transfer without such consent shall be void and, at the option of Sublessor, shall terminate this Sublease. Sublessor’s waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall be ineffective unless set forth in writing. Any Transfer shall be subject to the terms of Section 17 of the Master Lease, as incorporated herein.

9. Use: Sublessee may use the Subleased Premises only for the uses identified in Section 2.1 of the Master Lease. Sublessee shall comply with all reasonable rules and regulations promulgated from time to time by Sublessor and Master Lessor.

-3-

10. Effect of Conveyance: As used in this Sublease, the term “Sublessor” means the holder of the tenant’s interest under the Master Lease. In the event of any assignment, transfer or termination of the tenant’s interest under the Master Lease, which assignment, transfer or termination may occur at any time during the Term hereof in Sublessor’s sole discretion (but in accordance with the terms of the Master Lease), Sublessor shall be relieved of all covenants and obligations of Sublessor hereunder from and after the date of such assignment, transfer or termination, and it shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the parties, that any transferee has assumed and shall carry out all covenants and obligations thereafter to be performed by Sublessor hereunder. Sublessor shall transfer and deliver any security of Sublessee to the transferee of the tenant’s interest under the Master Lease, and thereupon Sublessor shall be discharged from any further liability with respect thereto.

11. Delivery and Acceptance: If Sublessor fails to deliver possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublessee on or before the date set forth in Paragraph 3.A hereof for any reason whatsoever, then this Sublease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Sublessor be liable to Sublessee for any loss or damage; provided, however, that in such event, Rent shall xxxxx until Sublessor delivers possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublessee. By taking possession of the Subleased Premises, Sublessee conclusively shall be deemed to have accepted the Subleased Premises in their as-is, then-existing condition, without any warranty whatsoever of Sublessor with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the Sublessor’s actual knowledge, without inquiry, all of the Subleased Premises’ fire protection, HVAC, electrical and mechanical systems serving the Subleased Premises are operational and in good condition and repair as of the date hereof, and will be in such condition as of the Commencement Date. Sublessor shall, at Sublessor’s sole cost, prior to the Commencement Date, construct a new vestibule style entrance as shown on Exhibit C and finish the minor construction currently in progress in the Subleased Premises (the “Sublessor’s Work”). Sublessor shall perform Sublessor’s Work in conformance with all currently applicable building codes, permits, laws and regulations.

12. Improvements: No alteration or improvements shall be made to the Subleased Premises, except in accordance with the Master Lease, as incorporated herein, and with the prior written consent of both Master Lessor and Sublessor. Sublessee shall pay all of Master Lessor’s costs and fees in connection therewith as described in Section 9 of the Master Lease, as incorporated herein, but shall not have to pay any additional fees in connection therewith incurred directly by Sublessor.

13. Insurance and Subrogation: Sublessee shall obtain and keep in full force and effect, at Sublessee’s sole cost and expense, during the Term the insurance required under Section 14 of the Master Lease, as incorporated herein. Sublessee shall name Master Lessor and Sublessor as additional insureds under its liability insurance policy. Sublessor and Sublessee hereby release each other from any damage to property or loss of any kind which is caused by or results from any risk insured against under any property insurance policy required to be carried by either party under this Sublease. Each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each insurance policy obtained by it to provide that the insurer waives all right of recovery against the other party and its agents and employees in connection with any damage or injury covered by the policy, and each party shall notify the other party if it is unable to obtain a waiver of subrogation. Sublessor shall not be liable to Sublessee, nor shall Sublessee be entitled to terminate this Sublease or to xxxxx Rent for any

-4-

reason, including, without limitation: (i) failure or interruption of any utility system or service; (ii) failure of Master Lessor to maintain the Subleased Premises as may be required under the Master Lease; or (iii) penetration of water into or onto any portion of the Subleased Premises, except to the extent that any of the foregoing incidents are a result of Sublessor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

14. Default: Sublessee shall be in material default of its obligations under this Sublease if Sublessee commits any act or omission which constitutes an Event of Default under the Master Lease, as incorporated herein, or otherwise fails to cure any obligation of Sublessee set forth herein after delivery of written notice and passage of the applicable grace period, if any, provided by the provisions of this Sublease.

15. Remedies: In the event of any default by Sublessee, Sublessor shall have all remedies provided pursuant to Section 20 of the Master Lease, as incorporated herein, and by applicable law.

16. Surrender: Prior to expiration of this Sublease, Sublessee shall remove all its trade fixtures and shall surrender the Subleased Premises in good and sanitary condition, working order and repair, normal wear and tear and damage by casualty excepted. For the avoidance of doubt, Sublessor shall remain responsible for the removal of any alterations or improvements installed by or on Sublessor’s behalf and required to be removed pursuant to the terms of the Master Lease. Sublessee shall only be required to remove those alterations or improvements installed by or on Sublessee’s behalf and required to be removed pursuant to the Master Lease (as incorporated herein). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublessor shall not require Sublessee to remove any alterations upon the Expiration Date unless Master Lessor requires that they be removed.

17. Broker: Sublessor and Sublessee each represent to the other that they have dealt with no real estate brokers, finders, agents or salesmen other than Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, representing Sublessor and Sublessee, in connection with this transaction. Each party agrees to hold the other party harmless from and against all claims for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or other compensation made by any other agent, broker, salesman or finder as a consequence of such party’s actions or dealings with such agent, broker, salesman, or finder.

18.

1.3.1 Rights of First Refusal. In consideration for Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease, provided no material Event of Default remains outstanding and uncured on the date Tenant exercises its rights under this § 1.3.1 et seq., Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the following rights of first refusal with respect to the following spaces (collectively the “RFR Space”) exercisable throughout the initial Term of the Lease:

•

Suite 210 (1,421 rsf), vacant as of the date of this Lease;

•

Suite 212 (1,541 rsf), currently occupied by Reprogenetics under a lease expiring on September 30, 2007;

•

Suite 226 (1,451 rsf), currently occupied by Netswitch under a lease expiring on January 31, 2009; and

•

Suite 228 (3,165 rsf), currently occupied by Halloo Communications under a lease expiring on March 31, 2009;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant’s rights of first refusal hereunder shall be subject to (i) any renewal or extension options under the existing leases of the RFR Space existing as of the date of the parties’ execution and delivery to each other of this Lease.

(a) Notice of Bona Fide Offer. If at any time during the period specified in § 1.3.1 above Landlord receives a bona fide offer, agreement, or proposal (“Lease Proposal”) which is acceptable to Landlord from any third party to lease any portion of the RFR Space; or if Landlord makes a bona fide offer, agreement, or proposal to a third party which the third party is willing to accept, Landlord shall send Tenant a summary (the “RFR Summary”) of the economic terms and conditions of the Lease Proposal, including a description of the subject space, proposed term, and basic business terms and shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s intention to conclude a lease on the terms of the Lease Proposal. Tenant shall have the right for a period of five (5) full business days (concluding at 5:00 p.m.) following Tenant’s receipt of the RFR Summary in which to exercise its right to lease the space described in the RFR Summary (the “RFR Space”) on the terms and conditions set forth in this § 1.3.1 et seq. by giving Landlord written notice of such exercise. If Tenant fails to notify Landlord of the exercise of its rights hereunder within such five-business-day period, Landlord may then lease the RFR Space to the third party tenant named as the tenant in the RFR Summary or an affiliate of such third party tenant, provided that the lease entered into pursuant to the Lease Proposal is (i) on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the RFR Summary or (ii) on substantially the same terms and conditions as set forth in the RFR Summary and Landlord is not required to re offer such First Refusal Space to Tenant pursuant to § 1.3.1(d) below.

(b) Commencement and Duration. If Tenant exercises its right of first refusal, Landlord shall make the RFR Space available for purposes of construction of improvements within ninety (90)

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 2 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

days following Tenant’s exercise of this right of first refusal (the “RFR Space Delivery Date”); the lease shall commence as provided herein and shall expire after the length of the term specified in the Lease Proposal. The parties understand and agree that the Term of the Lease with respect to any RFR Space shall not expire coterminously with the initial Term of the Lease stated in the Table for the remainder of the Premises. The parties agree that Landlord shall improve the RFR Space within ninety (90) days of the RFR Space Delivery Date, whether or not the RFR Space has been previously improved, in accordance with the terms of the Work Letter Agreement, with appropriate changes being made only to the Plans and Specifications, Construction Schedule, and the amount of the Landlord’s contribution (i.e., the value of the TIs computed on a per-square-foot basis), which amount shall be determined as provided below. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord for approval (which shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) Tenant’s proposed plans and specifications no later than ninety (90) days following Tenant’s exercise of this right of first refusal. Landlord shall, construct within the RFR Space the improvements specified in the final approved plans and specifications for such construction. The commencement date of the lease of such RFR Space (upon which Base Rent and Additional Rent shall begin to accrue, and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share shall be adjusted to take into account the RFR Space) shall be the earlier of (i) the date upon which Landlord’s construction of the improvements within the RFR Space satisfies the Delivery Requirements (hereinafter defined) with respect to the RFR Space or (ii) the date upon which Tenant occupies the RFR Space (or any portion thereof) and commences conducting Tenant’s business operations therein; provided, however, that in the event of any Tenant Delay (hereinafter defined), Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent with regard to such RFR Space shall be advanced by one (1) day for each such day substantial completion of such improvements was delayed by a Tenant Delay. Following Landlord’s delivery of the RFR Space in compliance with all Delivery Requirements, the RFR Space shall be deemed to be a part of the Premises and shall be leased by Tenant upon and subject to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease.

(c) Terms and Conditions. If Tenant exercises its right of first refusal as to the RFR Space, all terms and conditions for the lease of any such space shall be the same as those then in effect under the Lease, except for the rental, tenant inducements, rent abatements, and improvement allowances (“Third-Party Economics”). Tenant shall have the right to a lease of the RFR Space upon such Third-Party Economics as were contained in the Lease Proposal in the same proportion as the number of months remaining in the Term (including the term of any extension option then having been exercised) bears to the number of months in the lease term contained in the RFR Summary.

(d) Continuing Right, Re-Offer, and Priority. If Tenant shall not timely exercise the right of first refusal contained herein upon notification by Landlord, Tenant shall again have the same rights as to such space each time Landlord receives or makes a bona fide offer, from or to a third party, which both Landlord and the third party are willing to accept, to lease such space, whether or not Tenant has previously exercised or refused to exercise the rights herein contained with respect to such space or other space. If Tenant rejects or is deemed to have rejected a bona fide offer of which Tenant is notified, and if (i) such third-party bona fide offer is not consummated within five (5) months; (ii) the effective rental rate to be paid pursuant to the bona fide offer changes in any respect so as to become more than ten percent (10%) more favorable to the prospective tenant (iii) there is any change in the term, expansion rights, extension rights, or renewal rights proposed in the Lease Proposal; or (iv) there is any other material change in the nonmonetary terms of the bona fide offer, then the RFR Space shall again become subject to the terms of this § 1.3.1 et seq. and shall again be offered to Tenant as provided above. As used in the previous sentence, the term effective rental rate means an amount determined by taking the total base rental and deducting all abatements, allowances, cost of non-monetary tenant inducements (e.g., health club memberships, etc.), tenant

page 3 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

improvement costs in excess of Building-standard, and any other monetary inducements. The foregoing right of first refusal shall be subject to the existing tenants’ or occupants’ of the First Refusal Space renewing their existing leases pursuant to options to extend or renew which were in existence in their written lease agreements as of the date of this Lease.

(e) Confirmatory Documentation. After Tenant validly exercises the right of first refusal provided herein, the parties shall execute an amendment to the Lease adding the First Refusal Space, or such other documentation as Landlord shall require, promptly after Landlord shall prepare the same, in order to confirm the leasing of such First Refusal Space to Tenant; but an otherwise valid exercise of the rights of first refusal contained herein shall be fully effective, whether or not such confirmatory documentation is executed.

(f) Failure to Exercise. If Tenant shall fail to exercise its right of first refusal after notice by Landlord of the receipt of a bona fide third-party offer to lease the RFR Space within the time specified herein, such right shall be deemed to have lapsed and expired with respect to that particular RFR Summary, and Landlord may, for a period of five (5) months, enter into a lease pursuant to the terms of the RFR Summary with the prospective tenant named therein.

(g) Default and Termination. Tenant’s exercise of such right of first refusal hereunder shall not operate to cure any default by Tenant of any of the terms or provisions in the Lease, nor to extinguish or impair any rights or remedies of Landlord arising by virtue of such default. The exercises of the right of first refusal herein shall, at Landlord’s election, be null and void if a material Event of Default exists which remains outstanding and uncured on the date Tenant exercises its rights hereunder. Tenant agrees that time is of the essence of rights of first refusal specified herein.

(h) Effect of Transfer. If Tenant subleases or assigns an aggregate total of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises at any time during the Term of this Lease, the rights of first refusal hereunder with respect to the Specific RFR Spaces shall terminate with immediate effect.

1.4 TERM. The term (the “Term”) for which the Premises are hereby leased shall commence on the “Commencement Date,” which shall be the earlier to occur of (i) the day on which the Premises are ready for occupancy (as defined in Article 3) or (ii) the day on which Tenant or anyone claiming under or through Tenant first occupies the Premises for business, and shall end at noon on the “Expiration Date,” which shall be the last day of the calendar month in which occurs the day preceding the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Commencement Date, or any earlier date upon which the Term may expire or be cancelled or terminated pursuant to any of the conditions or covenants of this Lease or pursuant to law. Promptly following the Commencement Date the parties hereto shall, if required by Landlord, enter into a supplementary agreement fixing the dates of the Commencement Date and the Expiration Date in the form which is attached hereto as Exhibit E and incorporated herein by reference.

1.4.1 Option to Extend. Tenant is hereby granted one (1) option to extend (the “Extension Option”) the Term of the Lease for an additional period of five (5) consecutive Lease Years (the “Extension Period”). The Extension Period term shall begin the first day following the Expiration Date of the Lease and shall take effect on the same terms and conditions in effect under the Lease immediately prior to the Extension Period, except that (i) Tenant shall have no further right to extend and (ii) monthly Base Rent shall be the rate which is Fair Market Value (as defined below). The Fair Market Value shall be the effective rent (face rate less free rent) being charged for comparable space in comparable buildings leased on comparable terms, including annual escalations and such other terms. Tenant’s Extension Option shall apply to the entire Premises under the Lease at the time of Tenant’s exercise, including any RFR Space and/or any RFO Space that may theretofore have been

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

added to the Premises pursuant to exercise of rights under § 1.3.1 and/or § 1.3.2 above, and shall not be eligible for exercise with respect to a portion of the Premises only.

(a) Exercise of Option. The Extension Option may be exercised only by (i) delivering in person to Landlord’s Building Manager in the Building Office written notice of Tenant’s irrevocable election to exercise no earlier than January 1, 2012, and no later than April 1, 2012, and (ii) collecting and retaining in exchange for such notice of exercise an original written receipt therefor signed and dated by Landlord’s Building Manager. Tenant’s exercise of its Extension Option shall not be effective or valid if there is any deviation in the timing or manner of exercise prescribed herein.

(b) Failure to Exercise. If Tenant shall fail validly and timely to exercise the option herein granted, the Extension Option shall terminate and shall be null and void and of no further force and effect.

(c) Fair Market Value. Provided that Tenant has validly exercised its option when and as required hereunder, Landlord shall, on or before May 1, 2012, provide written notice to Tenant of its determination of the Fair Market Value. Within fifteen (15) days after receiving such determination (and in no event later than May 15, 2012) (“Tenant’s Review Period”), Tenant shall irrevocably elect, in writing, to do one of the following: (i) accept Landlord’s determination; or (ii) object to Landlord’s determination and with such objection set forth in writing Tenant’s determination of the Fair Market Value. If Tenant so objects, Landlord and Tenant shall attempt in good faith to agree upon such Fair Market Value using their best good-faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within fifteen (15) days following Tenant’s Review Period (the “Outside Agreement Date”), then Landlord shall submit each party’s determination to arbitration in accordance with the then-current rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. If Tenant objects to Landlord’s determination of Fair Market Value, Tenant shall pay Rent at the Fair Market Value determined by Landlord until the matter is resolved by binding arbitration as provided below, subject to retroactive adjustment after the matter is so resolved. If Tenant fails so to accept or object to Landlord’s determination of Fair Market Value in writing within Tenant’s Review Period, Tenant shall conclusively be deemed to have approved of the Fair Market Value as determined by Landlord.

(d) Appointment of Arbitrators. Not later than fifteen (15) days following the Outside Agreement Date, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator who shall by profession be a real estate broker who shall have been active over the ten-year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of commercial properties within northern San Mateo County. The determination of the arbitrators shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Value for the Premises is the more accurate as determined by the arbitrators, taking into account the requirements of this § 1.4.1 et seq.

(e) Appointment of Third Arbitrator. The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall within fifteen (15) days of the date of the appointment of the last-appointed arbitrator agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator, who shall be qualified under the same criteria as set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two arbitrators.

(f) Arbitrators’ Decision. The three (3) arbitrators shall, within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator, reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Value, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant

Oyster Point Marina Plaza Office Lease

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 5 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

thereof. The decision of the majority of the three (3) arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. The arbitrators shall not be permitted to set Fair Market Value to any level other than either Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Value.

(g) Failure to Appoint. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date, the arbitrator timely appointed by one of the parties shall reach a decision, notify Landlord and Tenant thereof, and such arbitrator’s decision shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If the two (2) arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator, both arbitrators shall be dismissed and the matter to be decided shall be forthwith submitted to arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect, but subject to the instructions set forth in this § 1.4.1 et seq..

(h) Cost of Arbitration. The cost of arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally.

(i) Default. Tenant’s exercise of the Extension Option shall, at Landlord’s election, be null and void if Tenant is in Default on the date of exercise or at any time thereafter and prior to commencement of the• Extension Period. Tenant’s exercise of the Extension Option shall not operate to cure any Default by Tenant nor to extinguish or impair any rights or remedies of Landlord arising by virtue of such Default. If the Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises shall terminate before Tenant shall have exercised the Extension Option, then immediately upon such termination the Extension Option shall simultaneously terminate and become null and void.

(j) Time. Time is of the essence of this Extension Option.

1.5 RENT. The “Rent” reserved under this Lease, for the Term thereof, shall consist of the following:

(a)

“Base Rent” as set forth in the Table for the various spaces and periods described therein per month, which shall be payable in advance on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term of this Lease, except that Tenant shall pay the first month’s Base Rent due under the Lease upon the execution and delivery of this Lease by Tenant; and

(b)

“Additional Rent” consisting of any and all other sums of money as shall become payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder; and Landlord shall have the same remedies for default in the payment of Additional Rent as for a default in payment of Base Rent).

1.5.1 Payment of Rent. Tenant shall pay the Base Rent and Additional Rent promptly when due, without demand therefor and without any abatement, deduction, or setoff whatsoever, except as may be expressly provided in this Lease. Tenant shall pay the Rent to Landlord, in lawful money of the United States of America, at Landlord’s office at the Complex or at such other place, or to such agent and at such place, as Landlord may designate by notice to Tenant. If the Commencement Date occurs on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, the Base Rent for such calendar month shall be prorated based on a 30-day month, and the balance of the first month’s Base Rent theretofore paid shall be credited against the next monthly installment of Base Rent.

1.5.2 Interest and Late Charges. If Tenant fails to pay any Rent when due, the unpaid amounts shall bear interest from the due date until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus five percent (5%) or, if less, at the highest rate of interest permitted by applicable law. As used herein, “Prime Rate” means the prime rate published in the Money Rates section of the Wall Street Journal

Oyster Point Marina Plaza Office Lease

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 6 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

(Western edition) as the same may change from time to time or in a similar publication if the Wall Street Journal ceases publication or ceases publication of its Money Rates section during the Term. Tenant acknowledges that the late payment of any monthly Rent will cause Landlord to lose the use of that money and incur costs and expenses not contemplated under this Lease, including administrative and collection costs and processing and account expenses, the exact amount of which it is difficult to ascertain. Therefore, in addition to interest, if any such installment is not received by Landlord within five (5) days from the date it is due, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of such installment. Landlord and Tenant agree that this late charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is fair compensation to Landlord for the loss suffered from such nonpayment by Tenant. In addition, any check returned by the bank for any reason will be considered late and will be subject to all late charges plus an additional returned check fee of Twenty Dollars ($20.00). After two such occasions upon which checks have been returned in any twelve-month period, Landlord will have the right to require payment by a cashier’s check or money order. Acceptance of any interest or late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such nonpayment by Tenant nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or at law or in equity, unless the payment of such interest and late charges is accompanied by all rentals then due and owning (notwithstanding anything to the contrary in § 20.2.1 below).

1.6 PROPERTY. For the purposes of this Lease, the “Property” shall mean the Building and any common or public areas or facilities, easements, corridors, lobbies, sidewalks, loading areas, driveways, landscaped areas, skywalk, parking garages and lots, and any and all other structures or facilities operated or maintained in connection with or for the benefit of the Building, and all parcels or tracts of land on which all or any portion of the Building or any of the other foregoing items are located, and any fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, Systems and Equipment (as defined in § 1.6.5 below), furniture and other personal property located thereon or therein and used in connection therewith, whether title is held by Landlord or its affiliates. The Property shall also be deemed to include such other of the Complex’s buildings or structures (and related facilities and parcels on which the same are located) as Landlord shall have incorporated by reference to the total square footage of the Building stated in § 1.3 above.

1.6.1 Common Areas. Tenant and its agents, employees, and invitees shall have the non-exclusive right with others designated by Landlord to the free use of the common areas in the Property and the Complex for the common areas’ intended and normal purpose. The term common areas shall mean elevators, sidewalks, parking areas, driveways, hallways, stairways, public restrooms, common entrances, lobbies, and other similar public areas and access ways.

1.6.2 Athletic Facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the common areas do not include the Building’s athletic facility (the “Athletic Facility”), which is an unsupervised and unattended weight and exercise room and shower facility. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord presently makes available (but is not obligated under this Lease to make available) the Athletic Facility for the general use of all tenants and their officers and employees, subject to such rules and regulations as Landlord may impose from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion regarding the use thereof. Tenant shall cause each of its officers and employees using the Athletic Facility to sign and deliver to Landlord an “Athletic Facility Use Agreement” in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, as such form may be revised by Landlord from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion. Tenant understands and agrees that no individual shall be permitted use of or access to the Athletic Facility unless and until such individual shall have first signed and delivered the Athletic Facility Use Agreement to Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to limit the use of the Athletic Facility in any manner it may deem necessary, or to discontinue the Athletic Facility altogether, at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, and neither Tenant nor its officers or employees shall be entitled to any

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

compensation, credit, allowance, or offset of expenses or Rent as a result of any such limitation or discontinuance.

1.6.3 Reservation to Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, possession of areas necessary for utilities, services, safety, and operation of the Property, including the Systems and Equipment, telephone closets (whether located in the common areas or in the Premises), fire exits and stairways, perimeter walls, space between the finished ceiling of the Premises and the slab of the floor or roof of the Property thereabove, and the use thereof, together with the right to install, maintain, operate, repair, and replace any part of the Systems and Equipment in, through, under, or above the Premises in locations that will not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises, are hereby excepted from both the Premises and the common areas and are reserved by Landlord and not demised to Tenant. Tenant’s access to the telephone closets on each floor and the Building’s main telephone room shall be subject to the Rules (as defined in § 13.1 below) and shall be permitted only with Landlord’s written consent and under the supervision of Landlord’s Building Engineer on each occasion that such access is sought.

1.6.4 Changes and Alterations of the Property. Landlord reserves the right to make repairs, alterations, additions, or improvements, structural or otherwise, in or to the Property or Complex as deemed necessary or desirable in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, so long as such repairs or alterations do not materially and unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s access to or beneficial use of the Premises for their intended purposes. Landlord reserves the right hereunder to do the following: (i) install, use, maintain, repair, and replace pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, and appurtenant meters and equipment for service to the various parts of the Property above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor surfaces, within the walls, and in the central core areas; (ii) to relocate any pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, and appurtenant meters and equipment which are located in the Premises or located elsewhere outside the Premises; (iii) expand the Building or the Complex; (iv) make changes to the Property or the Complex, including changes, expansions, and reductions in the location, size, shape, and number of driveways, entrances, loading and unloading areas, ingress, egress, direction of traffic, landscaped areas, walkways, parking spaces, and parking areas; (v) close any of the common areas, so long as reasonable access to the Premises remains available; (vi) use the common areas while engaged in making additional improvements, repairs, or alterations to the Property, Complex, or any portion thereof; and (vii) do and perform such other acts and make such other changes in, to, or with respect to the Property, Complex, common areas, and Building as Landlord may deem appropriate. The exercise of any of the foregoing rights shall not subject Landlord to claims for constructive eviction, abatement of Rent, damages, or other claims of any kind, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease. If Landlord enters the Premises to exercise any of the foregoing rights, Landlord shall provide reasonable advance written or oral notice to Tenant’s on-site manager.

1.6.5 Systems and Equipment. As used in this Lease, “Systems and Equipment” means collectively any existing plant, machinery, transformers, duct work, intrabuilding network cables and wires that transmit voice, data, and other telecommunications signals (“INC”), and other equipment, facilities, and systems designed to supply water, heat, ventilation, air conditioning and humidity or any other services or utilities, or comprising or serving as any component or portion of the electrical, gas, steam, plumbing, sprinkler, communications, alarm, security, or fire/life/safety systems or equipment, or any other mechanical, electrical, electronic, computer or other systems or equipment for the Property.

Landlord makes no representation to Tenant regarding the installation, ownership, location, or suitability for Tenant’s purposes of the INC in the Building.

2.1.2 Insurance Rates. Tenant shall not do or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises, nor shall Tenant bring or allow anything to be brought into the Premises, which will in any way increase the rate of any fire insurance or other insurance upon the Property or its contents, cause a cancellation of said insurance, or otherwise affect said insurance in any manner.

2.1.3 Use to Comply with Laws. Tenant shall use the Premises in conformity with all applicable Laws, as specified in Article 6 below.

2.2 NUISANCE AND WASTE.

3.1 CONDITION OF PREMISES. Except as otherwise expressly provided in § 3.2 below and the “Work Letter Agreement” which has been executed by Landlord and Tenant concurrently with their execution of this Lease substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F, Tenant shall accept the Premises, any existing Improvements in the Premises (as defined in § 10.1 below), and the Systems and Equipment serving the same in an “as is” condition on the date the Term commences, and Landlord shall have no obligation to improve, alter, remodel, or otherwise modify the Premises prior to Tenant’s occupancy.

page 9 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

3.2 LANDLORD’S PREPARATION. Landlord shall use reasonable diligence in completing and preparing the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy in the manner and subject to the terms, conditions, and covenants set forth in the Work Letter Agreement. The facilities, materials, and work to be furnished, installed, and performed in the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter Agreement are referred to as the “Work.” Any other installations, materials, and work which may be undertaken by or for the account of Tenant to prepare, equip, decorate, and furnish the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy are referred to as the “Tenant’s Work.”

3.2.1 Readiness for Occupancy. The Premises shall be deemed ready for occupancy on the earliest date on which all of the following conditions (the “Occupancy Conditions”) have first been met:

(a)

Substantial Completion of Work. The Work has been substantially completed; and it shall be so deemed notwithstanding the fact that minor or insubstantial details of construction, mechanical adjustment, or decoration remain to be performed, the noncompletion of which does not materially interfere with Tenant’s beneficial use of the Premises for their intended purposes;

(b)

Access and Services. Reasonable means of access and facilities necessary to Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises, including corridors, elevators, stairways, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, sanitary, water, and electrical facilities (but exclusive of parking facilities) have been installed and are in reasonably good operating order and available to Tenant; and

(c)

Certificate of Occupancy or Completion. A certificate of occupancy, certificate of completion, final inspection card, or similar required governmental approval (temporary or final) has been issued by the City of South San Francisco permitting use of the Premises for office purposes.

3.2.2 Tenant Delays. If the occurrence of any of the Occupancy Conditions and Landlord’s preparation of the Premises for occupancy shall be delayed owing to either (a) any act, omission, or failure of Tenant or any of its employees, agents, or contractors which shall continue after Landlord shall have given Tenant reasonable notice that such act, omission, or failure would result in delay, and such delay shall have been unavoidable by Landlord in the exercise of reasonable diligence and prudence; or (b) the nature of any items of additional work or change orders that Landlord undertakes to perform for the account of Tenant (including any delays incurred by Landlord, after making reasonable efforts, in procuring any materials, equipment, or fixtures of a kind or nature not used by Landlord as part of its standard construction) (collectively “Tenant Delays”), then the Premises shall be deemed ready for occupancy on the date when they would have been ready but for such Tenant Delays.

3.3 EARLY ENTRY. During any period that Tenant shall be permitted to enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date other than to occupy the same (e.g., to perform alterations or improvements), Tenant shall comply with all terms and provisions of this Lease, except those provisions requiring the payment of Rent. If Tenant shall be permitted to enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date for the purpose of occupying the same, Rent shall commence on such date at the rate specified in the Table for the first period during which Rent is payable after the Commencement Date; and if Tenant shall commence occupying only a portion of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, Rent shall be prorated based on the number of rentable square feet occupied by Tenant. Landlord shall permit early entry, provided the Premises are legally available and Landlord has completed any Work required under this Lease. In no event shall Tenant’s early entry extend or shorten the Term of the Lease set forth in § 1.2 above.

(such proceeds to be deducted from Operating Expenses in the year in which received); (H) capital expenditures, except those expressly permitted above; provided, all such permitted capital expenditures (together with reasonable financing charges) shall be amortized for purposes of this Lease over the shorter of (x) their useful lives, (y) the period during which the reasonably estimated savings in Operating Expenses equals the expenditures, or (z) three (3) years.

(h)

Utilities. “Utilities” means all expenses, costs, and amounts of every kind and nature which Landlord shall pay during any Adjustment Period of which any portion occurs during the Term, because of or in connection with the electricity, power, gas, steam, oil or other fuel, water, sewer, lighting, heating, air conditioning, and ventilating delivered to or consumed or used in or on the Property.

4.3 MANNER OF PAYMENT. To provide for current payments of the Rental Adjustment, Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent during each Adjustment Period an amount equal to Landlord’s estimate of the Rental Adjustment which will be payable by Tenant for such Adjustment Period. Such payments shall be made in monthly installments, commencing on the first day of the month following the month in which Landlord notifies Tenant of the amount it is to pay hereunder and continuing until the first day of the month following the month in which Landlord gives Tenant a new notice of the estimated Rental Adjustment. It is the intention hereunder to estimate from time to time the amount of Tenant’s Rental Adjustment for each Adjustment Period and then to effect a reconciliation in the following year based on the actual expenses incurred for the preceding Adjustment Period, as provided in 4.4 below.

4.4 RECONCILIATION. On or before the first day of April of each year after the first Adjustment Period (or as soon thereafter as is practical), Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement (the “Statement”) setting forth the Rental Adjustment for the preceding year. If the actual Rental Adjustment for the preceding Adjustment Period exceeds the total of the estimated monthly payments made by Tenant for such Adjustment Period, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of the deficiency within ten (10) days of the receipt of the Statement. If such total of estimated payments made exceeds the actual Rental Adjustment for such Adjustment Period, then Tenant shall receive a credit for the difference against payments of Rent next due. If the credit is due from Landlord on the Expiration Date, Landlord shall pay Tenant the amount of the credit, less any Rent then due. The obligations of Tenant and Landlord to make payments required under this § 4.4 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease.

4.4.1 Changes in Method. So long as Tenant’s obligations hereunder are not materially adversely affected thereby, Landlord reserves the right reasonably to change from time to time the manner or timing of the foregoing payments. In lieu of providing one Statement covering Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, and Operating Expenses, Landlord may provide separate statements, at the same or different times. No delay by Landlord in providing the Statement (or separate statements) shall be deemed a default by Landlord or a waiver of Landlord’s right to require payment of Tenant’s obligations for actual or estimated Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, or Operating Expenses. In no event shall a decrease in Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, or Operating Expenses below the Base Operating Expenses, Base Utilities, or Base Real Estate Taxes ever decrease the monthly Base Rent or give rise to a credit in favor of Tenant.

4.4.2 Proration of Rental Adjustment. If the Term does not commence on January 1 or does not end on December 31, Tenant’s obligations to pay estimated and actual amounts towards Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, and Operating Expenses for such first or final calendar year shall be prorated to reflect the portion of such year(s) included in the Term. Such proration shall be made by multiplying the total estimated or actual (as the case may be) Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, and

Oyster Point Marina Plaza Office Lease

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 15 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

Operating Expenses for such calendar year(s), as well as the Base Real Estate Taxes, Base Utilities, and Base Operating Expenses, by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days of the Term during such calendar year, and the denominator of which shall be three hundred sixty-five (365).

4.5 GROSS-UP. If the Building is less than ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during the Base Period or any Adjustment Period, then Operating Expenses, Utilities, and Real Estate Taxes for the Base Period and/or such Adjustment Period shall be “grossed up” to that amount of Operating Expenses, Utilities, and Real Estate Taxes that, using reasonable projections, would normally have been incurred during the Base Period and/or such Adjustment Period if the Building had been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during the Base Period and/or such Adjustment Period, as determined in accordance with sound accounting and management practices, consistently applied. Only those component elements or items of expense of Operating Expenses, Utilities, and Real Estate Taxes that are affected by variations in occupancy levels shall be grossed up.

4.6 ADJUSTMENT OF BASE OPERATING EXPENSES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, the parties agree that Base Operating Expenses and Operating Expenses for any subsequent Adjustment Period (herein called “Subsequent Operating Expenses”) shall be subject to further adjustment by Landlord as follows:

(a)

Exclusion of Capital Expenditures. Landlord may exclude from Base Operating Expenses capital expenditures otherwise permitted, provided Landlord shall also exclude any amortization of such expenditures from Subsequent Operating Expenses.

(b)

Elimination of Recurring Expenses. If Landlord eliminates from any Subsequent Operating Expenses a category of recurring expenses previously included in Base Operating Expenses, Landlord may subtract such category from Base Operating Expenses commencing with such subsequent Adjustment Period.

(c)

New Recurring Expenses. If Landlord includes a new category of recurring Subsequent Operating Expenses not previously included in Base Operating Expenses, Landlord shall also include an amount (the “Assumed Base Amount”) for such category in Base Operating Expenses commencing in such subsequent Adjustment Period.

(d)

Assumed Base Amount. The “Assumed Base Amount” under § 4.6(c) above shall be the annualized amount of expenses for such new category in the first Adjustment Period it is included, reduced by an amount determined in Landlord’s sole good faith discretion (but in no event by an amount less than five percent (5%)) for each full or partial Adjustment Period that has elapsed during the Term of the Lease before such Adjustment Period.

4.7 ADJUSTMENT OF REAL ESTATE TAXES. If Base Real Estate Taxes are reduced as the result of protest, by means of agreement, as the result of legal proceedings, or otherwise, Landlord may adjust Tenant’s obligations for Real Estate Taxes in all years affected by any refund of taxes following the Base Tax Year; and Tenant shall pay Landlord within thirty (30)days after notice any additional amount required by such adjustment for any Adjustment Periods that have theretofore occurred. Tenant shall be entitled to receive a share of any refund or abatement of Real Estate Taxes received by Landlord to the extent of and in proportion to Tenant’s actual contribution to the amount of Real Estate Taxes paid by Landlord during the period to which such refund or abatement relates, but in no event shall Tenant be entitled to any refund with respect to Real Estate Taxes paid by Landlord during Tenant’s Base Tax Year. If Real Estate

page 16 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

Taxes for any Adjustment Period during the Term or any extension thereof shall be increased after payment thereof by Landlord for any reason, including error or reassessment by applicable governmental authorities, Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of such increased Real Estate Taxes. Tenant shall pay increased Real Estate Taxes whether Real Estate Taxes are increased as a result of increases in the assessment or valuation of the Property (whether based on a sale, change in ownership, refinancing of the Property, or otherwise), increases in the tax rates, reduction or elimination of any rollbacks or other deductions available under current law, scheduled reductions of any tax abatement, as a result of the elimination, invalidity, or withdrawal of any tax abatement, or for any other cause whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Real Estate Taxes shall be paid based on assessments or bills by a governmental authority using a fiscal year other than a calendar year, Landlord may elect to average the assessments or bills for the subject calendar year, based on the number of months of such calendar year included in each such assessment or xxxx.

4.8 ALLOCATION WITHIN COMPLEX. So long as the Property shall be part of the Complex collectively owned or managed by Landlord or its affiliates or collectively managed by Landlord’s managing agent, Landlord may allocate Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, and Operating Expenses within the Complex and between the buildings and structures comprising the Complex and the parcels on which they are located, in accordance with sound accounting and management principles. In the alternative, Landlord shall have the right to determine, in accordance with sound accounting and management principles, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, and Operating Expenses based upon the totals of each of the same for all such buildings and structures, the land constituting parcels on which the same are located, and all related facilities, including common areas and easements, corridors, lobbies, sidewalks, elevators, loading areas, parking facilities, driveways, and other appurtenances and public areas, in which event Tenant’s Pro Rata Share shall be based on the ratio of the rentable area of the Premises to the rentable area of all buildings in the Complex.

4.9 LANDLORD’S RECORDS. Landlord shall maintain records with respect to Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, and Operating Expenses and determine the same in accordance with sound accounting and management practices, consistently applied. Although this Lease contemplates the computation of Real Estate Taxes, Utilities, and Operating Expenses on a cash basis, Landlord shall make reasonable and appropriate accrual adjustments to ensure that each Adjustment Period includes substantially the same recurring items. Landlord reserves the right to change to a full accrual system of accounting so long as the same is consistently applied and Tenant’s obligations are not materially adversely affected. Tenant or its representative shall have the right to examine such records, upon reasonable prior written notice specifying such records Tenant desires to examine, during normal business hours at the place or places where such records are normally kept, by sending such notice no later than forty-five (45) days following the furnishing of the Statement.

4.10 OTHER TAXES PAYABLE BY TENANT. In addition to the Base Rent and any other charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall, as an element of Rent, reimburse Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes payable by Landlord (other than net income taxes) which are not otherwise reimbursable under this Lease, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties, where such taxes are upon, measured by, or reasonably attributable to (A) the cost or value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures, and other personal property located at the Premises, or the cost or value of any improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, regardless of whether title to such improvements is held by Tenant or Landlord; (B) the gross or net Rent payable under this Lease, including any rental or gross receipts tax levied by any taxing authority with respect to the receipt of the Rent hereunder; (C) the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use, or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof; or (D) this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises. Tenant shall pay any rent tax, sales tax,

Oyster Point Marina Plaza Office Lease

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 17 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

service tax, transfer tax, value-added tax, or any other applicable tax on the Rent or services herein or otherwise respecting this Lease.

4.11 RENT CONTROL. If the amount of Rent or any other payment due under this Lease violates the terms of any governmental restrictions on such Rent or payment, then the Rent or payment due during the period of such restrictions shall be the maximum amount allowable under those restrictions. Upon termination of the restrictions, Landlord shall, to the extent it is legally permitted, recover from Tenant the difference between the amounts received during the period of the restrictions and the amounts Landlord would have received had there been no restrictions.

5 SECURITY DEPOSIT

5.1 DEPOSIT FOR SECURITY. Tenant shall deposit with Landlord an irrevocable sight-draft, on-demand letter of credit in the amount of Seven Hundred and Seventy Thousand Dollars ($770,000.00) (the “Security Deposit”) upon Tenant’s execution and submission of this Lease. The letter of credit shall be in a form and drawn upon an institution reasonably acceptable to Landlord. The letter of credit shall specify that it shall remain in force and be renewed annually automatically during the Term of the Lease, unless Landlord shall have received not less than thirty (30) days’ days written notice of cancellation or nonrenewal by the issuer, in which case Tenant shall substitute a new letter or credit on or before the expiration or cancellation of the existing letter of credit. The Security Deposit shall serve as security for the prompt, full, and faithful performance by Tenant of the terms and provisions of this Lease, including the value of future rents as damages in accordance with California Civil Code § 1951.2, as set forth in § 20.3 below. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from Landlord’s general funds or pay interest on the Security Deposit.

5.1.1 Application of Deposit. In the event that Tenant is in Default hereunder and fails to cure within any applicable time permitted under this Lease, or in the event that Tenant owes any amounts to Landlord upon the expiration of this Lease, Landlord may use or apply the whole or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of Tenant’s obligations hereunder. The use or application of the Security Deposit or any portion thereof shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided hereunder or under any Law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages.

5.1.2 Restoration of Full Deposit. In the event the Security Deposit is reduced by such use or application, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, within ten (10) days after written notice, an amount sufficient to restore the full amount of the Security Deposit. If the Premises shall be expanded at any time, or if the Term shall be extended at any increased rate of Rent, the Security Deposit shall thereupon be proportionately increased.

5.1.3 Disposition of Security Deposit. After the Expiration Date or any earlier termination of the Lease, any remaining portion of the Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant after deduction of all amounts due as Rent or otherwise. Tenant expressly waives the provisions of § 1950.7 of the California Civil Code.

6 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS

6.1 TENANT’S COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Tenant shall use the Premises in compliance with all applicable federal, state, county, and local governmental and municipal laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, codes, decrees, orders, and other such requirements, and decisions by courts in cases where such decisions are considered binding precedents in the State of California (the “State”), and decisions of federal courts applying the laws of the State (collectively “Laws”). Tenant shall, at its sole cost and

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 18 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

expense, promptly comply with each and all of such Laws, and also with the requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter constituted to deal with the condition, use, or occupancy of the Premises, except in the case of required structural changes not triggered by Tenant’s change in use of the Premises or Tenant’s alterations, additions, or improvements therein. Tenant shall comply with all applicable Laws regarding the physical condition of the Premises, but only to the extent that the applicable Laws pertain to the particular manner in which Tenant uses the Premises or the particular use to which Tenant puts the Premises, if different from that permitted under Article 2 of this Lease. Tenant shall also comply with all applicable Laws which do not relate to the physical condition of the Premises and with which only the occupant can comply, such as laws governing maximum occupancy, workplace smoking, VDT regulations, and illegal business operations, such as gambling. The judgement of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of such Laws shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.

6.1.1 Code Costs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 6, if the requirement of any public authority obligates either Landlord or Tenant to expend money in order to bring the Premises and/or any area of the Property into compliance with Laws as a result of (a) Tenant’s particular use or alteration of the Premises; (b) Tenant’s change in the use of the Premises; (c) the manner of conduct of Tenant’s business or operation of its installations, equipment, or other property therein; (d) any cause or condition created by or at the instance of Tenant, other than by Landlord’s performance of any work for or on behalf of Tenant; or (e) breach of any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, then Tenant shall bear all costs (“Code Costs”) of bringing the Premises and/or Property into compliance with Laws, whether such Code Costs are related to structural or nonstructural elements of the Premises or Property.

6.2 LANDLORD’S COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Landlord represents that on the Commencement Date Landlord has no actual knowledge of any violation of any applicable Laws respecting the Premises. During the Term Landlord shall comply with all applicable Laws regarding the Premises and Property, except to the extent Tenant must comply under § 6.1 above.

7 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

7.1 REGULATION OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Tenant shall not transport, use, store, maintain, generate, manufacture, handle, dispose, release, or discharge any “Hazardous Material” (as defined below) upon or about the Property, nor permit Tenant’s employees, agents, contractors, and other occupants of the Premises to engage in such activities upon or about the Property. However, the foregoing provisions shall not prohibit the transportation to and from, and use, storage, maintenance, and handling within, the Premises of substances customarily used in offices, provided all of the following conditions are met:

(a)

such substances shall be used and maintained only in such quantities as are reasonably necessary for such permitted use of the Premises, strictly in accordance with applicable Laws and the manufacturers’ instructions therefor;

(b)

such substances shall not be disposed of, released, or discharged on the Property and shall be transported to and from the Premises in compliance with all applicable Laws, and as Landlord shall reasonably require;

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

approval by Landlord), and shall ensure that disposal occurs frequently enough to prevent unnecessary storage of such substances in the Premises; and

(d)

any remaining such substances shall be completely, properly, and lawfully removed from the Property upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

7.1.1 DEFINITION OF HAZARDOUS MATERIAL. The term “Hazardous Material” for purposes hereof shall mean any chemical, substance, material, or waste or component thereof which is now or hereafter listed, defined, or regulated as a hazardous or toxic chemical, substance, material, or waste or component thereof by any federal, state, or local governing or regulatory body having jurisdiction, or which would trigger any employee or community “right-to-know” requirements adopted by any such body, or for which any such body has adopted any requirements for the preparation or distribution of an MSDS.

7.2 NOTIFICATION OF LANDLORD. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of (A) any enforcement, cleanup, or other regulatory action taken or threatened by any governmental or regulatory authority with respect to the presence of any Hazardous Material on the Premises or the migration thereof from or to other property; (B) any demands or claims made or threatened by any party against Tenant or the Premises relating to any loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Material on or from the Premises; and (C) any matters where Tenant is required by law to give a notice to any governmental or regulatory authority respecting any Hazardous Material on the Premises. Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) to join and participate, as a party, in any legal proceedings or actions affecting the Premises initiated in connection with any environmental, health, or safety law.

7.3 LIST OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. At such times as Landlord may reasonably request, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written list identifying any Hazardous Material then used, stored, or maintained upon the Premises, the use and approximate quantity of each such material, a copy of any material safety data sheet (“MSDS”) issued by the manufacturer thereof, written information concerning the removal, transportation, and disposal of the same, and such other information as Landlord may reasonably require or as may be required by law.

7.4 CLEANUP. If any Hazardous Material is released, discharged or disposed of by Tenant or any other occupant of the Premises, or their employees, agents, or contractors, on or about the Property in violation of the foregoing provisions, Tenant shall immediately, properly, and in compliance with applicable Laws clean up and remove the Hazardous Material from the Property and any other affected property and clean or replace any affected personal property (whether or not owned by Landlord), at Tenant’s expense. Such clean up and removal work shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval (except in emergencies), and shall include any testing, investigation, and the preparation and implementation of any remedial action plan required by any governmental body having jurisdiction or reasonably required by Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to comply with the provisions of this § 7.2 within five (5) days after written notice by Landlord, or such shorter time as may be required by Laws or in order to minimize any hazard to persons or property, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) arrange for such compliance directly or as Tenant’s agent through contractors or other parties selected by Landlord, at Tenant’s expense (without limiting Landlord’s other remedies under this Lease or applicable Laws).

7.5 CASUALTY DAMAGE. If any Hazardous Material is released, discharged, or disposed of on or about the Property and such release, discharge, or disposal is not caused by Tenant or other occupants of the Premises, or their employees, agents, or contractors, such release, discharge, or disposal shall be deemed casualty damage under Article 15 to the extent that the Premises or common areas serving the Premises are affected thereby; in such case, Landlord and Tenant shall have the obligations and rights respecting such casualty damage provided under Article 15 of this Lease.

None of the same shall be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession of the Premises or any part thereof, shall render Landlord liable to Tenant for abatement of Rent, or shall relieve Tenant from performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Landlord in no event shall be liable for damages by reason of loss of profits, business interruption, or other compensatory or consequential damages.

14.4 RELEASES AND WAIVERS OF SUBROGATION. The purpose of this provision is to allow Landlord and Tenant to allocate and assume certain risks to coincide with insurance coverages required to be maintained pursuant to the terms to this Lease. Landlord and Tenant recognize the benefit that each will receive from the waivers of subrogation each is required to obtain pursuant to this § 14.4 and that there are significant advantages to each in connection with minimizing duplication of insurance coverages. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree to accept and place the limitations which follow on each other’s respective liabilities and responsibility for damages in order to coincide with required insurance coverages.

14.4.1 Tenant’s Property Agreement. In light of Tenant’s agreement to insure Tenant’s Business Personal Property in accordance with § 14.1.2 above, Tenant agrees that Landlord will have no liability to Tenant in the event Landlord damages or destroys, negligently or otherwise, all or any part of Tenant’s Business Personal Property. Tenant will cause to be placed in its insurance policies covering Tenant’s Business Personal Property a waiver of subrogation so that its insurance company will not become subrogated to Tenant’s rights and will not be able to proceed against Landlord in connection with any such damage or destruction.

14.4.2 Landlord’s Property Agreement. In light of Landlord’s agreement to insure Landlord’s Property in accordance with § 14.3 above, Landlord agrees that Tenant will have no liability to Landlord in the event that Tenant damages or destroys, negligently or otherwise, all or any part of Landlord’s Property. Landlord will cause to be placed in its insurance policies covering Landlord’s Property a waiver of subrogation so that its insurance company will not become subrogated to Landlord’s rights and will not be able to proceed against Tenant in connection with any such damage or destruction.

14.4.3 Tenant’s Release. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable to Tenant for any damages or destruction to Tenant’s Business Personal Property caused by Landlord’s employees, agents, visitors, invitees, guests, or independent contractors (collectively “Landlord’s Associates”), and Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any claims, liabilities, demands, losses, damages, consequential damages, and the like, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs (collectively “Claims”) resulting from damage or destruction to Tenant’s Business Personal Property caused directly or indirectly by Landlord and/or Landlord’s Associates; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to release Landlord’s independent contractors from any such Claims Tenant may have against Landlord’s independent contractors.

14.4.4 Landlord’s Release. Tenant shall not be responsible or liable to Landlord for any damages or destruction to Landlord’s Property caused by Tenant’s employees, agents, visitors, invitees, guests, or independent contractors (collectively “Tenant’s Associates”), and Landlord hereby releases Tenant from any Claims resulting from damage or destruction to Landlord’s Property caused directly or indirectly by Tenant and/or Tenant’s Associates; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to release Tenant’s independent contractors from any such Claims Landlord may have against Tenant’s independent contractors.

page 31 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

Landlord’s Property is damaged or destroyed because of any act or conduct, negligent or otherwise, by Tenant and/or by Tenant’s Associates, Landlord shall have no rights against Tenant by virtue of such damage or destruction, and Landlord hereby releases Tenant from all Claims, including claims for loss of rent, by Landlord directly or indirectly resulting from the damage or destruction of Landlord’s Property by conduct by Tenant and/or by Tenant’s Associates. Likewise, in the event that Tenant’s Business Personal Property is damaged or destroyed because of any act or conduct, negligent or otherwise, by Landlord and/or by Landlord’s Associates, Tenant shall have no rights against Landlord by virtue of such damage or destruction, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord from all Claims by Tenant directly or indirectly resulting from the damage or destruction to Tenant’s Business Personal Property by the conduct of Landlord and/or Landlord’s Associates, including Claims for loss of business or loss of profits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be deemed to release Tenant’s or Landlord’s independent contractors from any liability to Tenant and/or Landlord.

14.4.6 Injury and Death to Individuals. Landlord and Tenant understand that waivers of subrogation do not apply to injury to and death of individuals. Landlord and Tenant shall each carry insurance, as provided by this Article 14, in connection with injury and death to individuals. Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from any Claims which Tenant may otherwise have with respect to injury or death to individuals occurring within the Property but outside the Premises, except to the extent that such injury or death is caused by Tenant and/or Tenant’s Associates, through negligence or otherwise, and is not covered by the insurance Landlord is required to carry under this Lease. Likewise, Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend, protect, and hold Landlord harmless from any Claims for injury or death to persons occurring within the Premises or caused, directly or indirectly, by Tenant or Tenant’s Associates outside the Premises, except to the extent such injuries or death are caused by Landlord and/or Landlord’s Associates, through negligence or otherwise, and are not covered by the insurance Tenant is required to carry under this Lease.

14.4.7 Abatement of Rent. Except as may be expressly provided elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant shall not be entitled to Rent abatement and shall not otherwise have, and hereby releases Landlord from, any Claims resulting from Tenant’s inability to utilize all or any part of the Premises, except to the extent that Tenant is unable to use all or any part of the Premises and does not use all or any part of the Premises as a result of Landlord’s intentional decision to refuse to provide access to the Building and/or the Premises and/or to provide services and/or utilities to Tenant as required to be provided by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to this Lease, where such refusal is not caused by a Force Majeure occurrence.

14.4.8 Availability of Waiver of Subrogation. If an insurance policy cannot be obtained with a waiver of subrogation or is obtainable only by the payment of an additional premium charge above that charged by insurance companies issuing policies without waiver of subrogation, the party undertaking to obtain the insurance shall notify the other party of this fact. The other party shall have a period of ten (10) days after receiving the notice either to place the insurance with a company that is reasonably satisfactory to the other party and that will carry the insurance with a waiver of subrogation at no additional cost or to agree to pay the additional premium if such a policy is obtainable at additional cost. If the insurance cannot be obtained or the party in whose favor a waiver of subrogation is desired refuses to pay the additional premium charged, the other party is relieved of the obligation to obtain a waiver of subrogation with respect to the particular insurance involved.

14.5 OTHER CASES OF DAMAGE OR INJURY. In all cases not covered by the foregoing provisions of this Article 14, Tenant hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons in, upon, or about

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall not be liable for injury or damage which may be sustained by the person, goods, wares, merchandise, or property of Tenant or Tenant’s Associates or any other person in or about the Premises caused by or resulting from fire, 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 Systems and Equipment, pipes, sprinklers, wires, INC. appliances, plumbing, heating, air-conditioning, or lighting fixtures of the same, whether the damage or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Property, the Complex, or from other sources.

In all cases not covered by the foregoing provisions of this Article 14, Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold Landlord harmless against (a) any and all Claims arising from any death or injury to any person or damage to any property whatsoever occurring in, on, or about the Premises or any part thereof, and (b) any and all Claims occurring in, on or about any of the Common Areas, the Property, or the Complex, when such injury or damage is caused in whole or in part by the act, negligence, fault, or omission of any duty with respect to the same by Tenant or Tenant’s Associates. In all cases not covered by the foregoing provisions of this-Article 14, Tenant shall further indemnify, defend, protect, and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all Claims arising from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed under this Lease, or arising from any act or negligence of Tenant or Tenant’s Associates, and from and against all costs, attorneys’ fees, expenses, and liabilities incurred in connection with any such Claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon. In case any action or proceeding be brought against Landlord by reason of any such Claim, Tenant, upon notice from Landlord, shall defend the same at Tenant’s expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be liable in any case for damage to property or death or injury to person(s) occasioned by the active negligence or intentional misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s Associates, unless covered by insurance Tenant is required to provide.

15 DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

15.1 LOSS COVERED BY INSURANCE. If at any time prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease the Premises or the Property is wholly or partially damaged or destroyed by any casualty which results in a loss to Landlord that is fully covered by insurance maintained by Landlord or for Landlord’s benefit (or required to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to § 14.3 above), which casualty renders the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable by Tenant in the ordinary conduct of Tenant’s business, the parties agree that the following provisions shall modify their obligations under this Lease after such damage or destruction.

15.1.1 Repairs Which Can Be Completed Within Six (6) Months. Within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s written notice to Landlord of such damage or destruction, Landlord shall provide Tenant with notice of its determination of whether the damage or destruction can be repaired within six (6) months after the commencement of the work of repairing such damage or destruction without the payment of overtime or other premiums. If all repairs to Premises or Property can, in Landlord’s judgement, be completed within six (6) months following the date of the commencement of the work of repairing such damage or destruction without the payment of overtime or other premiums, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s expense, repair the same; and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that a proportionate reduction of the Rent shall be allowed Tenant to the extent that the Premises shall be rendered inaccessible or unusable by Tenant and are not used by Tenant during the period of time that such portion is unusable or inaccessible and not used by Tenant.

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

15.1.2 Repairs Which Cannot Be Completed Within Six (6) Months. If all such repairs to the Property and Premises cannot, in Landlord’s judgement, be completed within six (6) months following the commencement of the work of repairing such damage or destruction without the payment of overtime or other premiums, Landlord shall notify Tenant of such determination; and in such an event, either Landlord or Tenant may, at its option, upon written notice to the other party given within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction, elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage or destruction. In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to terminate the Lease in accordance with the foregoing provisions, then Landlord shall, at Landlord’s expense, repair such damage or destruction; and in such event, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, except that the Rent shall be proportionately reduced as provided in § 15.1.1 above; provided, however, that if any such repair is not commenced by Landlord within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction or is not substantially completed by Landlord within nine (9) months after the occurrence of such damage or destruction, then in either such event Tenant may, at its option, upon written notice to Landlord, elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of Landlord’s receipt of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease in the situation just described if all of the following conditions, are met: (x) Landlord shall have informed Tenant in its notice of determination that the repair of such damage or destruction could not be substantially completed by Landlord within nine (9) months after the occurrence of such damage or destruction; (y) Tenant shall not have elected to terminate the Lease by written notice delivered to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction; and (z) Landlord shall have commenced the work of repairing such damage or destruction.

15.2 LOSS NOT COVERED BY INSURANCE. If at any time prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease the Premises or the Property is totally or partially damaged or destroyed in connection with a casualty, which loss to Landlord is not fully covered by insurance maintained by Landlord or for Landlord’s benefit (or required to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to § 14.3 above); and if such damage renders the Premises inaccessible or unusable to Tenant for their intended purpose in the ordinary course of its business, Landlord may, at its option, upon written notice given to Tenant within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s written notice to Landlord of the occurrence of such damage or destruction, either (a) elect to repair or to restore such damage or destruction or (b) elect to terminate this Lease. If Landlord elects to repair or restore such damage or destruction, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, except that the Rent shall be proportionately reduced as provided in § 15.1.1 above. If Landlord does not elect by notice to Tenant to repair such damage, the Lease shall terminate as of the date of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice of election to terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all repairs to the Premises or the Building cannot, in Landlord’s reasonable judgement, be completed within six (6) months following the date of the commencement of the work of repairing such damage or destruction without the payment of overtime or other premiums, then either Landlord or Tenant may at the option of either, upon written notice to the other party given within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction, elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of such notice.

15.3 DESTRUCTION DURING FINAL YEAR. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in §§ 15.1 and l5.2, if the Premises or the Building are wholly or partially damaged or destroyed within the final twelve (12) months of the Term of this Lease or, if an applicable renewal option has been exercised, during the last year of any renewal term, in such a way that Tenant shall be prevented from using the Premises for at least thirty (30) consecutive days as a result of such damage or destruction, then either Landlord or Tenant may, at the option of either, by written notice to the other party delivered within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction, elect to terminate the Lease as of the date of such notice.

15.4 DESTRUCTION OF TENANT’S PROPERTY. Under no circumstances shall Landlord be required to repair any injury or damage to, or make any repairs to or replacements of, Tenant’s Property. However, as part of Operating Expenses, Landlord shall cause to be insured the Improvements in the Premises which do not consist of Tenant’s Property and shall cause such Improvements to be repaired and restored at Landlord’s sole expense, except that Tenant shall pay any applicable deductible. Landlord shall have no responsibility for any contents placed or kept in or on the Premises or the Property by Tenant or Tenant’s employees or invitees or any other person claiming through Tenant.

15.5 EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Landlord and Tenant agree that their respective rights and obligations in the event of any damage or destruction of the Premises, Property, or Complex shall be governed exclusively by this Lease. Tenant, as a material inducement to Landlord entering into this Lease, irrevocably waives and releases Tenant’s rights under California Civil Code §§ 1932(2), 1933(4), and 1942, as the same may be modified or replaced hereafter. No damages, compensation, setoff, allowance, or claim shall be payable by Landlord for any inconvenience, interruption, or cessation of Tenant’s business or any annoyance arising from any damage to or destruction of all or any portion of the Premises, Property, or Complex.

Tenant shall have reciprocal termination rights, on the same terms and conditions and to be exercised in the same manner as the foregoing sentence provides, if the whole or any material part of the Premises is permanently taken, or if access to the Premises is permanently materially impaired.

16.2 RENTAL APPORTIONMENT. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination or the date of such Taking, whichever shall first occur. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this. Lease shall not be so terminated, the Rent shall be proportionately abated.

16.3 AWARDS AND DAMAGES. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award or payment in connection with any Taking, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant’s personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Term, and for moving expenses, so long as such claim does not diminish the award available to Landlord and such claim is payable separately to Tenant.

16.4 TEMPORARY CONDEMNATION. If part or all of the Premises are condemned for a limited period of time (“Temporary Condemnation”), this Lease shall remain in effect. The Rent and Tenant’s obligations for the part of the Premises taken shall xxxxx during the Temporary Condemnation in proportion to the part of the Premises that Tenant is unable to use in its business operations as a result of the Temporary Condemnation. Landlord shall receive the entire award for any Temporary Condemnation.

17 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

17.1 CONSENT REQUIRED FOR TRANSFER. Tenant agrees that it shall not assign, sublet, mortgage, hypothecate, or encumber this Lease, nor permit or allow the Premises or any part thereof to be used or occupied by others, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance.

The consent by Landlord to a Transfer shall not relieve Tenant from obtaining the Landlord’s express written consent to any further Transfer. In no event shall any permitted sublessee assign or encumber its sublease or further sublet all or any portion of its sublet space, or otherwise suffer or permit the sublet space or any part thereof to be used or occupied by others, without Landlord’s prior written consent in each instance.

17.1.1 Corporate Transferor. If Tenant is a corporation, the provisions of § 17.1 shall apply to a transfer (by one or more transfers) of a majority of the stock of Tenant as if such transfer of a majority of the stock of Tenant were an assignment of this Lease (but subject to the limitations and provisions of § 17.13 below).

17.2 NOTICE OF INTENT TO TRANSFER. If Tenant shall at any time or times during the Term of this Lease desire to assign this Lease or sublet all or part of the Premises, Tenant shall give notice thereof (the “Transfer Notice”) to Landlord, which notice shall set forth all of the following:

(b)

a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the identity of the proposed assignee or subtenant, the nature of its business, and its proposed use of the Premises; and

(c)

17.3 LANDLORD’S RECAPTURE RIGHT. The Transfer Notice shall be deemed an offer from Tenant to Landlord whereby Landlord (or Landlord’s designee) may, at its option, terminate this Lease as to all or the affected portion of the Premises (as the case may be) as of the effective date of the proposed Transfer. Landlord may exercise its recapture right by notice to Tenant at any time within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Transfer Notice; and during such thirty-day period Tenant shall not assign this Lease nor sublet such space to any person.

17.3.1 Date of Termination.

Transfer, and whereby the assignee or transferee shall agree that the provisions in § 17.1 shall, notwithstanding such Transfer, continue to be binding upon it in respect of all future Transfers. The original named Tenant covenants that, notwithstanding any Transfer, whether or not in violation of the provisions of this Lease, and notwithstanding the acceptance of Base Rent and/or Additional Rent by Landlord from an assignee, transferee, or any other party, the original named Tenant shall remain fully liable for the payment of the Base Rent and Additional Rent and for the other obligations of this Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed or observed.

17.10 NO WAIVER OR DISCHARGE. The joint and several liability of Tenant and any immediate or remote successor in interest of Tenant and the due performance of the obligations of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed shall not be discharged, released, or impaired in any respect by any agreement or stipulation made by Landlord extending the time of, or modifying any of the obligations of, this Lease, or by any waiver or failure of Landlord to enforce any of the obligations of this Lease.

17.11 LISTING OF NAME. The listing of any name other than that of Tenant, whether on the doors of the Premises or the Building directory, or otherwise, shall not operate to vest any right or interest in this Lease or in the Premises, nor shall it be deemed to be the consent of Landlord to any Transfer of this Lease or to any sublease of the Premises or to the use or occupancy of the Premises by others.

17.12 NET PROFITS AGREEMENT. Anything contained in the foregoing provisions of this Article 17 to the contrary notwithstanding, neither Tenant nor any other person or entity having an interest in the possession, use, occupancy, or utilization of the Premises shall enter into any lease, sublease, license, concession, or other agreement for use, occupancy, or utilization of space in the Premises which provides for rental or other payment for such use, occupancy, or utilization based, in whole or in part, on the net income or profits derived by any person from the premises leased, used, occupied, or utilized (other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales); and any such purported lease, sublease, license, concession, or other agreement shall be absolutely void and ineffective as a conveyance of any right or interest in the possession, use, occupancy, or utilization of any part of the Premises.

17.13 AFFILIATES AND INVESTORS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 17, Landlord’s consent shall not be required in the event parties owning stock of Tenant desire to transfer a majority of the stock of Tenant to any party or parties, or in the event Tenant assigns this Lease or sublets the Premises or any portion thereof to any corporation or entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant, provided and subject to the following conditions:

(a)

Tenant shall not be in default of any of the terms, covenants, or conditions on Tenant’s part to observe or perform hereunder;

(b)

such sublet or assignment shall be subject to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease;

(c)

Tenant shall notify Landlord of such transfer, sublet, or assignment in accordance with § 17.2 hereof and, in the event of a sublease or transfer to an affiliate, furnish Landlord with reasonably satisfactory evidence that such sublessee or assignee controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant; and

(d)

in the event of a merger, consolidation, or transfer of substantially all of Tenant’s assets, the successor to Tenant has a net worth, computed in accordance with generally-accepted accounting principles, at least equal to the greater of (i) the net worth of Tenant immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, or transfer or (ii) the net worth of Tenant herein named on the date of this Lease; and proof

page 40 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

satisfactory to Landlord of such net worth shall have been delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of any such transaction.

As used herein, the terms control and common control shall be deemed to mean that the ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of all of the issued and outstanding voting shares of such corporation, or fifty percent (50%) or more of all the legal and equitable interest in any such business entities.

17.14 PERMITTED OCCUPANTS. Landlord hereby agrees that the provisions of this Article 17 shall not apply to the shared occupancy of individual offices in the Premises with Tenant by individuals renting not more than one (1) such office (the “Permitted Occupant”), provided that the space occupied by the Permitted Occupant shall not be separately demised or contain separate entrances, demarcations, or reception areas and the occupancy by the Permitted Occupant shall be upon and subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease.

18 SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT

18.1 SUBORDINATION OF LEASE. This Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to (a) all ground leases, overriding leases, and underlying leases of the Building, Property, and/or the Complex now or hereafter existing; (b) all mortgages which may now or hereafter affect the Building, Property, or Complex and any of such leases, whether or not such mortgages shall also cover other lands and/or buildings; (c) each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages; and (d) to all renewals, modifications, replacements, and extensions of such leases and such mortgages and spreaders and consolidations of such mortgages. This § 18.1 shall be self-operative, and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that Landlord, the lessor of any such lease or the holder (“Holder”) of any such mortgage or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination. The leases to which this Lease is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate pursuant to this Article 18 are hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Superior Leases”; the mortgages to which this Lease is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate are hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Superior Mortgages”; and the lessor of a superior lease or its successor in interest at the time referred to is sometimes hereinafter referred to as a “Lessor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant agrees, upon written request from Landlord or any Holder or Lessor, to reorder the relative priority of the Lease with respect to any particular Superior Mortgage or Superior Lease so as to subordinate the lien of any such Superior Mortgage or Superior Lease to the Lease. Tenant agrees to execute any instrument which Landlord or any Holder or Lessor may present in order to effect such prioritization of the Lease, provided that such instrument does not modify any material term of the Lease or increase Tenant’s obligations thereunder.

18.2 NOTICE AND CURE RIGHT. In the event of any action or omission of Landlord which would give Tenant the right, immediately or after lapse of a period of time, to cancel or terminate this Lease, or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant shall not exercise such right unless and until (i) Tenant shall have given written notice of such act or omission to the Holder of each Superior Mortgage and the Lessor of each Superior Lease whose name and address shall previously have been furnished to Tenant in writing; and (ii) unless such act or omission shall be one which is not capable of being remedied by Landlord or such mortgage Holder or Lessor within a reasonable period of time, a reasonable period for remedying such act or omission shall have elapsed following the giving of such notice and following the time when such Holder or Lessor shall have become entitled under such Superior Mortgage or Superior Lease, as the case may be, to remedy the same (which reasonable period shall in no event be less than the period to which Landlord would be entitled under this Lease or otherwise, after similar notice, to effect such remedy), provided such Holder or Lessor shall with due diligence give Tenant written notice of intention

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 41 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

to remedy such act or omission and shall thereafter diligently and continuously prosecute such cure to completion.

18.3 ATTORNMENT. If the Lessor of a Superior Lease or the Holder of a Superior Mortgage shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or delivery of a new lease or deed, then at the request of such party so succeeding to Landlord’s rights or other person having or acquiring title by virtue of such foreclosure or termination (herein sometimes referred to as “Successor Landlord”) and upon such Successor Landlord’s written agreement to accept Tenant’s attornment, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenant’s landlord under this Lease and shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment. Upon such attornment this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Successor Landlord and Tenant upon all of the terms, conditions, and covenants in this Lease, except as follows:

(a)

the Successor Landlord shall not be liable for any previous act or omission of Landlord under this Lease;

(b)

the Successor Landlord shall not be subject to any offset (unless expressly provided for in this Lease) which shall have theretofore accrued to Tenant against Landlord;

(c)

the Successor Landlord shall not be bound by any previous modification of this Lease, unless expressly provided for in this Lease, or by any previous prepayment of more than one month’s Base Rent, unless such modification or prepayment shall have been expressly approved in writing by the Lessor of the Superior Lease or the Holder of the Superior Mortgage through or by reason of which the Successor Landlord shall have succeeded to the rights of Landlord under this Lease.

19 FINANCING REQUIREMENTS

19.1 LENDER-REQUESTED MODIFICATIONS. If, in connection with obtaining financing or refinancing for the Property or Complex a prospective lender shall request reasonable modifications to this Lease as a condition to such financing or refinancing, Tenant shall not withhold, delay, or unreasonably condition its consent thereto. It is agreed that, among the modifications which shall be deemed reasonable, are modifications to the subordination and attornment provisions of this Lease, modifications to the notice provisions of this Lease, modifications to the provisions of this Lease which permit the lender to cure any defaults by Landlord, and modifications to the provisions which grant additional time to cure as may be reasonably required by the lender.

19.2 FAILURE TO COMPLY. If Tenant fails or refuses to execute and deliver to Landlord, within fifteen (15) days after written notice to do so, the amendment(s) to this Lease accomplishing such reasonable modification(s), Landlord, at its sole option, shall have the right either (a) to terminate this Lease or (b) to execute the amendment for and on behalf of Tenant as its attorney-in-fact. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as its attorney-in-fact solely to execute any documents required to carry out the intent of § 19.1 above on behalf of Tenant.

20 DEFAULT

20.1 TENANT’S DEFAULT. Tenant’s failure to perform any of its obligations under this Lease when due and in the manner required shall constitute a material breach and default (“Event of Default”) of this Lease by Tenant, subject to any cure period(s) permitted or available under applicable laws or statutes. In addition, the following shall also be deemed Events of Default hereunder:

(e)

failure by Tenant to cure within any applicable times permitted thereunder any default under any other lease for space in the Complex or any other buildings owned or managed by Landlord or its affiliates now or hereafter entered by Tenant; and any Default hereunder not cured within the times permitted for cure herein shall, at Landlord’s election, constitute a default under any other such lease or leases;

(f)

The levy of a writ of attachment or execution on this Lease or on any of Tenant’s property;

(g)

Tenant’s or any Guarantor’s general assignment for the benefit of creditors or arrangement, composition, extension, or adjustment with its creditors;

(h)

Tenant’s or any Guarantor’s filing of a voluntary petition for relief, or the filing of a petition against Tenant or any Guarantor in a proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy laws or other insolvency laws which is not withdrawn or dismissed within forty-five (45) days thereafter; or, under the provisions of any law providing for reorganization or winding up of corporations, the assumption by any court of competent jurisdiction of jurisdiction, custody, or control of Tenant or any substantial part of its property, or of any Guarantor, where such jurisdiction, custody, or control remains in force unrelinquished, unstayed, or unterminated for a period of forty five (45) days;

(i)

20.2 LANDLORD’S REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Landlord shall have the right, in addition to any other rights or remedies Landlord may have under Laws, at Landlord’s option, without further notice or demand of any kind, to elect to do one of the following alternatives:

(i)

Oyster Point Marina Plaza Office Lease

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 43 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

(ii)

Continue this Lease in effect and collect any unpaid Rent or other charges which have theretofore accrued or which thereafter become due and payable. It is intended hereunder that Landlord have the remedy described in California Civil Code § 1951.4, which provides that a landlord may continue a lease in effect after a tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if tenant has the right to sublease or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations.

In the event of any re-entry or retaking of possession by Landlord, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove all or any part of Tenant’s Property from the Premises and to place such property in storage at a public warehouse at the expense and risk of Tenant.

20.2.1 No Waiver of Default. The waiver by Landlord of any Event of Default or of any other breach of any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant, or condition. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord subsequent to any Event of Default or breach hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of any preceding Event of Default or breach other than the failure to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of any breach at the time of such acceptance of Rent. Landlord shall not be deemed to have waived any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease, unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice of such waiver. Tenant should not rely upon Landlord’s failure or delay in enforcing any right or remedy hereunder.

20.2.2 Landlord’s Right to Cure. If Tenant defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to), without waiving such default, perform the same for the account and at the expense of Tenant. Tenant shall pay Landlord all costs of such performance promptly upon receipt of a xxxx therefor.

20.3 DAMAGES. Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease under the provisions of § 20.2 (i) above, Landlord may recover as damages from Tenant the following:

(a)

Past Rent: The worth at the time of the award of any unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of termination; plus

(b)

Rent Prior to Award: The worth at the time of the 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 that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

(c)

Rent After Award: The worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

(d)

Proximately Caused Damages: Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), incurred by Landlord in (i) retaking possession of the Premises; (ii) maintaining the Premises after Tenant’s default; (iii) preparing the Premises for reletting to a new tenant, including any repairs or alterations; and (iv) reletting the Premises, including brokers’ commissions.

“The worth at the time of the award” as used in subsections (a) and (b) above is to be computed by allowing interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum or, if different, the legal rate then applicable

Oyster Point Marina Plaza Office Lease

Kashiwa Fudosan America, Inc. :: Novacea, Inc.

page 44 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

in California. “The worth at the time of the award” as used in subsection (c) above is to be computed by discounting the amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank situated nearest to the Premises at the time of the award plus one percent (1%).

20.4 LANDLORD’S DEFAULT. If Landlord fails to perform any covenant, condition, or agreement contained in this Lease within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Tenant specifying a default and the relevant Lease provision, or if Landlord fails within that thirty-day period after notice to commence to cure any such default which cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, then, subject to § 21.1 below, Landlord shall be liable to Tenant for any damages sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord’s breach. Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease or to withhold, reduce, or offset any amount against any payments of Rent or any other charges due and payable under this Lease, except to the extent that a specific Lease provision permits such termination or withholding, reduction, or offset of Rent

20.5 HOLDER’S RIGHT TO CURE. Tenant shall give any Holder a copy, by registered mail, of any notice of default served upon Landlord, provided that Tenant previously has been notified in writing of the address of such Holder. If Landlord fails to cure such default within the time provided in this Lease, any such Holder shall have an additional forty-five (45) days within which to cure such default by Landlord or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within that time, such additional time as may be necessary, provided that within such forty-five (45) day period the Holder has commenced and is pursuing the remedies necessary to cure such default (including commencement of foreclosure proceedings, if necessary to effect such cure), in which event this Lease shall not be terminated while such remedies are being so pursued.

20.6 SURVIVAL OF REMEDIES. The remedies permitted under this Article 20, the parties’ indemnities under §§ 14.4.3, 14.4.4, and l4.4.5, and § 29.5 below shall survive the termination of this Lease.

21 LIMITATIONS ON LANDLORD’S LIABILITY

21.1 PERSONAL LIABILITY. The liability of Landlord to Tenant for any default by Landlord under this Lease or arising in connection herewith or with Landlord’s operation, management, leasing, repair, renovation, alteration, or any other matter relating to the Property or the Premises shall be limited to the interest of Landlord in the Property (and the rental proceeds thereof). Under no circumstances shall Landlord ever be liable for consequential or punitive damages, including damages for lost profits or for business interruption. Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Property (and the rental proceeds thereof) for the recovery of any judgement against Landlord, and Landlord shall not be personally liable for any such judgement or deficiency after execution thereon. The limitations of liability contained in this Article 21 shall apply equally and inure to the benefit of Landlord’s present and future partners, beneficiaries, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, agents, and employees, and their respective partners, heirs, successors, and assigns. Under no circumstances shall any present or future general or limited partner of Landlord (if Landlord is a partnership), or trustee or beneficiary (if Landlord or any partner of Landlord is a trust) or corporate officer, director, or shareholder (if Landlord or any partner of Landlord is a corporation or company) or member (if Landlord is a limited liability company) have any liability for the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease.

21.2 LIABILITY UPON TRANSFER. The term Landlord as used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations on the part of the Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title to, or a lessee’s interest in a ground lease or master lease of the Property. In the event of any transfer, assignment, or other conveyance or transfer of any such title or interest, Landlord herein named (and in case of subsequent transfers or conveyances, the current grantor) shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer,

page 45 of 55

[Suite 200 (400 OPB) ;25,288 rsf]

assignment, or conveyance of all liability with respect to the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed; and, without further agreement, the transferee of such title or interest shall be deemed to have assumed and agreed to observe and perform any and all obligations of Landlord hereunder, during its ownership of the Premises.

22.2 ELECTION TO SELL BUILDING.

27.2 USE AT TENANT’S OWN RISK. Landlord shall have no obligation to monitor the use of the Parking Facility. Tenant’s and its employees’ use of the Parking Facility shall be at the sole risk of Tenant and its employees.

4 DELAYS IN PLANNING. The Commencement Date under the Lease shall be postponed for each day that final Plans are not prepared and approved by the Date to Complete Planning described above, including any revisions reasonably required by Landlord pursuant to ¶ 6 below and revisions by Tenant to reduce Tenant’s Cost pursuant to ¶ 9 below (collectively called “Delays in Planning”). However, the commencement of Rent shall be postponed only to the extent that substantial completion of the Work is delayed beyond the Commencement Date as a result of one or more of the following events (collectively called “Landlord Delays”):

(A)

DELAY IN APPROVAL OF PLANS. Landlord takes more than seven (7) working days to approve or disapprove the Plans or revisions thereof after receiving the same (or such longer time as may be reasonably required in order to obtain any engineering or HVAC report or due to other special or unusual features of the Work or Plans);

(B)

DELAY OF SPACE PLANNER. Landlord’s Space Planner takes more than seven (7) working days to meet with Tenant after receiving a written request for a meeting or takes more than

seven (7) working days to prepare or revise the Plans after meeting with Tenant and receiving all information from Tenant required in order to do so, provided that this provision shall apply only if Tenant uses Landlord’s Space Planner (as described in ¶ 14 below below) to prepare the Plans; or

(c)

DELAY OF COST ESTIMATES. Landlord takes more than thirty (30) working days to provide Tenant with cost estimates after receiving Plans sufficiently detailed for such purposes, provided that this ¶ 4(c) shall only apply if Landlord elects to provide cost estimates under ¶ 9 below.

5 DELAYS IN CONSTRUCTION. The Commencement Date under the Lease shall be postponed for each day that Landlord fails substantially to complete the Work as a result of strikes, acts of God, shortages of materials or labor, delays in obtaining governmental approvals or requirements, the various causes set forth below, or any other causes beyond Landlord’s reasonable control. In such case, the commencement of Rent shall be similarly postponed, except to the extent that delays occur as a result of one or more of the following (collectively called “Tenant Delays”):

(A)

TENANT DELAYS IN PLANNING. Delays in Planning as described above (except for Landlord Delays);

(B)

TENANT CHANGE ORDERS. Tenant’s request for changes to the Work or Change Orders under ¶ 8 or otherwise;

(C)

FAILURE TO FURNISH TENANT’S COST. Tenant’s failure to furnish an amount equal to Landlord’s reasonable estimate of Tenant’s Cost (if any) within ten (10) days, as described in ¶ 9 below, which failure shall give Landlord the absolute right to postpone the Work until such amount is furnished to Landlord;

(D)

SPECIALTY ITEMS. Any upgrades, special work, or items not customarily provided by Landlord to office tenants, to the extent that the same involve longer lead times, installation times, delays, or difficulties in obtaining building permits, requirements for any governmental approval, permit, or action beyond the issuance of normal building permits (as described in ¶ 7), or other delays not typically encountered in connection with Landlord’s standard office improvements;

(E)

TENANT’S PERFORMANCE OF WORK. The performance by Tenant or Tenant’s contractors, agents, or employees of any work at or about the Premises or Building; or

(F)

TENANT’S FAULT OR NEGLIGENCE. Any act or omission of Tenant or Tenant’s contractors, agents, or employees, or any breach by the Tenant of any provisions contained in the Agreement or in the Lease, or any failure of Tenant to cooperate with Landlord or otherwise act in good faith in order to cause the Work to be designed and performed in a timely manner.

6 LANDLORD’S APPROVAL OF PLANS. Landlord shall either approve any Plans or revisions submitted pursuant to this Agreement or disapprove the same with suggestions for making the same acceptable within the time required under ¶ 4 above. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold approval, if the Plans provide for a customary office layout, with finishes and materials generally conforming to Building-standard materials currently being used by Landlord at the Building, are compatible with the Building’s shell and core construction, and if no modifications will be required for the Building electrical, heating, air-conditioning, ventilation, plumbing, fire protection, life safety, or other systems or equipment, and will not require any structural modifications to the Building, whether required by heavy loads or otherwise. Landlord may request that Tenant approve Landlord’s suggested changes in writing (such approval shall not be

unreasonably withheld), or Landlord may arrange directly with Space Planner for revised Plans to be prepared incorporating such suggestions; and in any such case, Tenant shall sign or initial the revised Plans and/ or Landlord’s notice concerning the suggested changes, if requested by Landlord. Landlord’s approval of the Plans shall not be deemed a warranty as to the adequacy or legality of the design, and Landlord hereby disclaims any responsibility or liability for the same.

7 GOVERNMENTAL APPROVAL OF PLANS. Landlord shall apply for any normal building permits required for the Work which are issued pursuant to a local building code as a ministerial matter. If the Plans must be revised in order to obtain such building permits, Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant. In such case, Tenant shall promptly arrange for the Plans to be revised to satisfy the building permit requirements and shall submit the revised Plans to Landlord for approval as a Change Order under ¶ 8. Landlord shall have no obligation to apply for any zoning, parking, or sign code amendments, approvals, permits, or variances, or any other governmental approval, permit, or action other than normal building permits, as described above. If any such other matters are required, Tenant shall promptly seek to satisfy such requirements or revise the Plans to eliminate such requirements. Delays in substantially completing the Work by the Commencement Date as a result of requirements for building permits or other governmental approvals, permits, or actions shall affect the Commencement Date and commencement of Rent to the extent provided in ¶ 5, except that any delays in obtaining normal building permits as a result of errors or omissions of Landlord’s Space Planner in preparing the Plans shall postpone the commencement of Rent to the extent that substantial completion of the Work is delayed thereby beyond the Commencement Date; and Tenant shall not be obligated to bear the cost of Plan revisions to correct the same, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement.

8 CHANGES AFTER PLANS ARE APPROVED. If Tenant shall desire any changes, alternations, or additions to the final Plans after they have been approved by Landlord, Tenant shall submit a detailed written request or revised Plans (the “Change Order”) to the Landlord for approval. If reasonable and practicable and generally consistent with the Plans theretofore approved, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold approval; but all costs in connection therewith, including construction costs, permit fees, and any additional plans, drawings, engineering reports, or other studies or tests, or revisions of such existing items, shall be paid for by Tenant as a Tenant’s Cost under ¶ 9.1.

9 TENANT’S COST; ESTIMATES (IF APPLICABLE). Any amounts that Tenant is required to pay under this Agreement shall be referred to as “Tenant’s Cost” herein. Tenant’s Cost shall be deemed additional “Rent” under the Lease. Landlord may at any time reasonably estimate Tenant’s Cost in advance, in which case, Tenant shall deposit such estimated amount with Landlord within ten (10) days after requested by Landlord. If such estimated amount exceeds the actual amount of Tenant’s Cost, Tenant shall receive a refund of the difference; and if the actual amount shall exceed the estimated amount, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within ten (10) days after requested by Landlord.

9.1 Request For Cost Estimate. In connection with submitting any Plans to Landlord for approval, Tenant may request that Landlord obtain a written estimate from Landlord’s contractor concerning Tenant’s Cost. Landlord shall not have an obligation to obtain such estimates. However, if Landlord elects to obtain such estimates, and if any such estimates are unacceptable to Tenant, Tenant may eliminate or substitute items in order to reduce the estimated Tenant’s Cost in connection with preparing a revised version of the Plans.

9.2 Tenant’s Approval of Cost Estimate. In connection with submitting any cost estimates to Tenant under this ¶ 9.2, Landlord may request Tenant’s written approval of such estimates. Tenant shall not unreasonably withhold such approval and shall approve or disapprove the same in writing within five (5) days after requested by Landlord. If Tenant reasonably disapproves any such estimate, Tenant shall meet with the Space Planner and eliminate or substitute items in order to reduce Tenant’s Cost as described in the preceding paragraph.

9.3 Preliminary Cost Estimates. Any cost estimates based on a Space Plan or so-called “pricing plan” will be preliminary in nature and may not be relied on by Tenant. However, Landlord agrees that any written estimate of Tenant’s Cost based on the approved Construction Documents will not be exceeded by more than twenty percent (20%), except to the extent that (a) Tenant thereafter makes changes in the Construction Documents or the Work; (b) overtime labor is required in order substantially to complete the Work by the Work Completion Date; (c) concealed conditions are encountered on the job site; (d) new legal requirements become effective following preparation of the estimate; or (e) there are strikes, acts of God, shortages of materials or labor, or other causes beyond Landlord’s reasonable control.

10 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION. The term substantial completion and its various inflections as used herein shall mean that Landlord has caused all of the Work to be completed substantially, except for so-called “punchlist items”; e.g., minor details of construction or decoration or mechanical adjustments which do not substantially interfere with Tenant’s occupancy or beneficial enjoyment of the Premises for their intended purposes or Tenant’s ability to complete any improvements to the Premises to be made by Tenant. If there is any dispute as to whether Landlord has substantially completed the Work, the good faith decision of Landlord’s Space Planner shall be final and binding on the parties.

10.1 Notice of Substantial Completion. If Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that the Work is substantially completed, and Tenant fails to object thereto in writing within seven (7) days thereafter specifying in reasonable detail the items of work needed to be performed in order to achieve substantial completion, Tenant shall be deemed conclusively to have agreed that the Work is substantially completed, for purposes of commencing the Commencement Date and Rent under the Lease.

10.2 Final Completion. Substantial completion shall not prejudice Tenant’s rights to require full completion of any remaining items of Work. However, if Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that the Work is fully completed, and Tenant fails to object thereto in writing within fifteen (15) days thereafter specifying in reasonable detail the items of work needed to be completed and the nature of work needed to complete said items, Tenant shall be deemed conclusively to have accepted the Work as fully completed (or such portions thereof as to which Tenant has not so objected).

10.3 Substitution of Materials. Landlord reserves the right to substitute comparable or better materials and items for those shown in the Plans, so long as they do not materially and adversely affect the appearance of the Premises.

11 WORK PERFORMED BY TENANT. Landlord, at Landlord’s discretion, may permit Tenant and Tenant’s agents and contractors to enter the Premises prior to completion of the Work in order to make the Premises ready for Tenant’s use and occupancy. If Landlord permits such entry prior to completion of the Work, then such permission is conditioned upon Tenant and Tenant’s agents, contractors, workmen, mechanics, suppliers, and invitees working in harmony and not interfering with Landlord and Landlord’s contractors in doing the Work or with other tenants and occupants of the Building. If at any time such entry shall cause or threaten to cause such disharmony or interference, Landlord shall have the right to withdraw such permission upon twenty-four (24) hours’ oral or written notice to Tenant. Tenant agrees that any such entry into the Premises shall be deemed to be under all of the terms, covenants, conditions, and provisions of the Lease (including, without limitation, all insurance requirements), except as to the covenant to pay Rent thereunder, and further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable in any way for any injury, loss, or damage which may occur to any items of work constructed by Tenant or to other property of Tenant that may be placed in the Premises prior to completion of the Work, the same being at Tenant’s sole risk.

12 LIABILITY. The parties acknowledge that Landlord is not an architect or engineer and that the Work will be designed and performed by independent architects, engineers, and contractors. Accordingly, Landlord does not guarantee or warrant that the Plans will be free from errors or omissions, nor that the Work will be

free from defects; and Landlord shall have no liability therefor, provided that such architects, engineers, and contractors are licensed and reputable (except as provided in ¶ 7 above). In the event of such errors, omissions, or defects, Landlord shall cooperate in any action Tenant desires to bring against such parties.
