Sublessor may assign or sublease all or the remaining portion of the Premises
described in Paragraph 2 of the Master Lease to (i) Sublessee or (ii) an
entity which purchases or acquires Sublessor so long as it operates financial
institutions and is at least equal to Sublessor's financial strength and
condition; without obtaining the further consent to said assignment or
sublease by Landlord or the Master Ground Lessor, and (b) Sublessee may
assign the Sublease or sublease the Subleased Premises to

least equal to Sublessee's financial strength and condition or (ii) a person
or entity who subleases 15% or less of the Subleased Premises (such as an
office) so long as no other portion of the subleased Premises are subleased
at the same time and so long as said person or entity does not compete with
the products or services of Sublessor. Paragraph 26(a) and (c) of the Master
Lease shall not apply to an assignment or a sublease described hereinabove.
In the event that Sublessor so elects, Sublessee shall at its own cost and
expense modify the passageway between the Subleased Premises and the
Sublessor's space to discourage customer access between spaces while allowing
private access for employees and others to use the shared bathrooms. Further,
the owners of Sublessee shall be allowed to transfer ownership interests to
and among existing shareholders or family members of existing shareholders
without obtaining the further consent to said transfers by Landlord, Master
Ground Lessor, or Sublessor. In the event Sublessor is allowed to assign or
sublease the premises occupied by it in a transaction other than a sale of
the stock or assets of Sublessor, and elects to sublease said premises to a
direct competitor of Sublessee, then in such event Sublessee shall have a
right of first refusal to assume Sublessor's space under paragraph 10 above,
which right of first refusal must be exercised by requesting same from
Landlord within seven (7) days of receiving notice from Sublessor of its
intention to assign or sublease the portion of the premises occupied by it as
set forth above.

commenced by either party to this Sublease concerning the subleased premises,
then as between Sublessor and Sublessee, the prevailing party shall be

Page 1
The parties hereto agree that said letting and hiring is upon and
subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth. Tenant
covenants, as a material part of the consideration for this Lease to keep and
perform each and all of said terms, covenants and conditions for which tenant
is liable and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such performance.
2. PREMISES AND COMMON AREAS LEASED.
a. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord
those certain premises described in Section 1 and in Exhibit A attached
hereto (the "Premises"), provided that the rentable square feet shall be
adjusted by Landlord's architect in accordance with the method of measuring
rentable office space specified in the American National Standard Institute
Publication ANSI 265.1-1980 (the "BOMA Standard").
b. The Premises may also be referred to as the "Project" or the "Building"
as such terms are interchangeable.
c. Tenant's Percentage of the Project shall be adjusted upon the
determination of the exact number of rentable square feet within the Premises
to equal a fraction numerator is the number of rentable square feet within
the Premises determined in accordance with subparagraph 2.a. above and whose
denominator is the approximate number of rentable square feet within the
Project as determined by Landlord's architect in accordance with the BOMA
Standard.
3. TERM
The term of this Lease shall be for the period designated in Section 1,
commencing on the Commencement Date, and ending on the expiration of such
period, unless the term hereby demised shall be sooner terminated as
hereinafter provided.
4. POSSESSION
Tenant agrees that, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the
Premises to Tenant on the scheduled commencement of the term of this Lease, this
Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for
any loss or damage resulting therefrom, nor shall the expiration date of the
above term be in any way extended, but in such event Tenant shall not be liable
for any rent until Landlord tenders possession of the Premises to Tenant.
5. RENT
a. Tenant shall pay Landlord monthly base rent in the initial amount set forth
in Section 1 which shall be payable monthly in advance on the first day of each
and every calendar month ("Base Monthly Rent") provided, however, the first
month's rent shall be due and payable upon execution of this lease. See
paragraphs 2 and 3 of the Addendum.
b. All rent shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord monthly in advance on the
first day of every calendar month, at the address shown in Section 1, or such
other place as Landlord may designate in writing from time to time. All rent
shall be paid without prior demand or notice and without any deduction or
offset whatsoever. All rent shall be paid in lawful currency of the United
States of America. All rent due for any partial month shall be prorated at
the rate of 1/30th of the total monthly rent per day. Tenant acknowledges
that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of any rent or other sums due under
this Lease will cause Landlord to incur cost not contemplated by this Lease,
the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impracticable to
ascertain. Late payment of rent shall be defined as any rent not paid prior
to the 10th day of any month. Such costs include, without limitation,
processing and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed on
Landlord by the terms of any encumbrance or note secured by the Premises.
Therefore, if any rent or other sum due from Tenant is not received when due,
Tenant shall pay to landlord an additional sum equal to 10% of such overdue
payment. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that such late charge represents a
fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason
of any such late payment. Additionally, all such delinquent rent or other
sums, plus this estate charge, shall bear interest at the then maximum lawful
rate permitted to be charged by Landlord. Any payments of any kind returned
for insufficient funds will be subject to an additional handling charge of
$25.00, and thereafter, Landlord may require Tenant to pay all future
payments of rent or other sums due by money order or cashier's check.
c. Upon the execution of the Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the prepaid
rent set forth in Section 1, and if Tenant is not in default of any
provisions of the Lease, such prepaid rent shall be applied toward the rent
due for the last month of the term. Landlord's obligations with respect to
the prepaid
Page 2
rent are those of a debtor and not of a trustee, and Landlord can commingle
the prepaid rent with Landlord's general funds. Landlord shall not be
required to pay Tenant interest on the prepaid rent. Landlord shall be
entitled to immediately endorse and cash Tenant's prepaid rent; however, such
endorsement and cashing shall not constitute Landlord's acceptance of this
Lease. In the event Landlord does not accept this Lease, Landlord shall
return said prepaid rent.
d. If the term of this Lease contains any rental abatement period, Tenant
hereby agrees that if Tenant breaches the Lease and/or abandons the Premises
before the end of the Lease term, or if Tenant's right to possession is
terminated by Landlord because of Tenant's breach of the Lease, Landlord
shall, at its option, (1) void the rental abatement period; and (2) recover
from Tenant, in addition to any damages due Landlord under the terms and
conditions of the Lease, rent for the duration of the rental abatement period.
e. "For purposes of Section 467 of the Internal Revenue Code, the parties to
this lease agreement hereby agree to allocate the stated rents, provided
herein, to the periods which correspond to the actual rent payments as
provided under the terms and conditions of this agreement."
6. RENTAL ADJUSTMENT.
a. For the purposes of this Paragraph 6, the following terms are defined as
follows:
(1) Tenant's Percentage shall mean that portion of the total rentable area
of the Project occupied by Tenant as set forth as a percentage in Section 1.
(2) See paragraph 2 and 3 of the Addendum attached hereto.
7. SECURITY DEPOSIT.
Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the amount
of the security for the performance by Tenant of the provisions of this Lease
and in part as a cleaning fee. If Tenant is in default, Landlord can use the
security deposit or any portion of it to cure the default or to compensate
Landlord for all damage sustained by Landlord resulting from Tenant's default.
Upon demand, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a sum equal to the portion
of the security deposit expended or applied by Landlord to maintain the security
deposit in the amount initially deposited with Landlord. In no event will Tenant
have the right to apply any part of the security deposit to any rent or other
sums due under this Lease. If Tenant is not in default at the expiration or
termination of this Lease, Landlord shall return the entire security deposit to
Tenant, except for 10% of first month's rent or $125, whichever is greater,
which Landlord shall retain as a non-refundable cleaning fee. Landlord's
obligations with respect to the deposit are those of a debtor and not of a
trustee, and Landlord can commingle the security deposit with Landlord's general
funds. Landlord shall not be required to pay Tenant interest on the deposit.
Landlord shall be entitled to immediately endorse and cash Tenant's prepaid
deposit; however, such endorsement and cashing shall not constitute Landlord's
acceptance of this Lease. In the event Landlord does not accept this Lease,
Landlord shall return said prepaid deposit. Should Landlord sell its interest in
the Premises during the term hereof and if Landlord deposits with the purchaser
thereof the then unappropriated funds deposited by Tenant as aforesaid,
thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect
to the Security Deposit.
8. USE.
Tenant shall use the Premises for the uses set forth in Section 1 above,
and shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose
without the prior written consent of Landlord. Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to give Tenant any exclusive right to such use in the Building. Tenant
shall not use or occupy the Premises in violation of law or of the Certificate
of Occupancy issued for the Building, and shall, upon written notice from
Landlord, discontinue any use of the Premises which is declared by any
governmental authority having jurisdiction to be a violation of law or of
said Certificate of Occupancy. Tenant shall comply with any direction of any
direction of any governmental authority having jurisdiction which shall, by
reason of the nature of Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, impose any
duty upon Tenant or Landlord with respect to the use or occupation thereof.
Tenant shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations and requirements of
the Insurance Service Office or any other organization performing a similar
function. Tenant shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse Landlord for any
additional premium charged for such policy by reason of Tenant's failure to
comply with the provisions of this Paragraph. Tenant shall not do or permit
anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way obstruct
or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Project, or
injure or annoy them, or use or allow the Premises to be used for any
improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause,
maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises. Tenant shall
comply with all restrictive covenants and obligations created by private
contracts which affect the use and operation
Page 3
of the Premises, the Building, the Common Area or the Project. Tenant shall not
commit or suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises and shall
keep the Premises in first class repair and appearance. Landlord reserves the
right to prescribe the weight and position of all files, safes and heavy
equipment which Tenant desires to place in the Premises so as to properly
distribute the weight thereof. Further, Tenant's business machines and
mechanical equipment which cause vibration or noise that may be transmitted to
the building structure or to any other space in the building shall be so
installed, maintained and used by Tenant as to eliminate such vibration or
noise. Tenant shall be responsible for all structural engineering required to
determine structural load.
9. NOTICES.
Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder must be in writing
and may be given by personal delivery or by mail, and if given by mail shall be
deemed sufficiently given after three business days, if sent by registered or
certified mail addressed to Tenant at the address designated in Section 1 or to
Landlord at both of the addresses designated in Section 1. Either party may
specify a different address for notice by written notice to the other.
10. BROKERS.
Tenant warrants that it has had no dealings with any real estate broker or
agent in connection with the negotiation of this Lease, except for those certain
brokers whose names are set forth in Section 1 and that it knows of no other
real estate broker or agent who is or might be entitled to a commission in
connection with this Lease. If Tenant has dealt with any other person or real
estate broker with respect to leasing or renting space in the Project, Tenant
shall be solely responsible for the payment of any fee due said person or firm
and Tenant shall hold Landlord free and harmless against any liability in
respect thereto, including attorneys' fees and costs.
11. HOLDING OVER.
If Tenant holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the
term hereof without the express written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall become
a Tenant at sufferance only, at a rental rate equal to the greater of Landlord's
scheduled rent for the space or one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the rent in
effect upon the date of such expiration (subject to adjustment as provided in
Paragraph 6 hereof and prorated on a daily basis), and otherwise subject to the
terms, covenants and conditions herein specified, so far as applicable.
Acceptance by Landlord of rent after such expiration or earlier termination
shall not result in a renewal of this Lease. The foregoing provisions of this
Paragraph 11 are in addition to and do not affect Landlord's right of re-entry
or any rights of Landlord hereunder or as otherwise provided by law. If Tenant
fails to surrender the Premises upon the expiration of this Lease despite demand
to do so by Landlord, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all
loss or liability, including without limitation, any claim made by any
succeeding tenant founded on or resulting from such failure to surrender and any
attorneys fees and costs.
12. TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY.
a. Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, at least ten (10) days before
delinquency, all taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures
placed by Tenant in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant's
personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord's property or
if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the inclusion therein
of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and
if Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, pays the taxes based upon such
increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of
the validity thereof, but only under proper protest If requested by Tenant,
Tenant shall, upon demand, repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against
Landlord, or the portion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the
assessment.
b. If the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, whether installed, and/or paid
for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so
as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax purposes at a
valuation higher than the valuation at which tenant improvements conforming
to Landlord's "Building Standard" for other space in the building are
assessed, then the real property taxes and assessments levied against the
Building or Project by reason of such excess assessed valued, then the real
property taxes and assessments levied against the Building or Project by
reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied
against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions
of Paragraph 12a above. If the records of the County Assessor are not
available or sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for making said
determination, the actual cost of construction shall be used.

made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises, the building
or the Project or with respect to the suitability of either for the conduct of
Tenant's business. Except for latent defects, the taking of possession of the
Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the
building were in satisfactory condition at such time.
14. ALTERATIONS.
a. Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements in or to the
Premises without Landlord's prior written consent, and then only by
contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord. Tenant shall submit to
Landlord plans and specifications for any proposed alterations, additions or
improvements to the Premises, and may not make such alterations, additions or
improvements until Landlord has approved of such plans and specifications.
Tenant shall construct such alterations, additions or improvements in
accordance with the plans and specifications approved by Landlord, and shall
not amend or modify such plans and specifications without Landlord's prior
written consent. If the proposed change requires the consent or approval of
any lessor of a superior lease, or the holder of a mortgage encumbering the
Premises, such consent or approval must be secured prior to the construction
of such alteration, addition or improvement. All such work shall be done at
such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time designate.
Tenant covenants and agrees that all work done by Tenant shall be performed
in full compliance with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, regulations and
requirements of all governmental agencies, offices and boards having
jurisdiction, and in full compliance with the rules, regulations and
requirements all governmental agencies, offices and boards having
jurisdiction, and in full compliance with the rules, regulations and
requirements of the Insurance Service Office, and any similar body. Before
commencing any work, Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) days
written notice of the proposed commencement of such work and shall, if
required by Landlord, secure at Tenant's own cost and expense, a completion
and lien indemnity bond satisfactory to Landlord for said work. Tenant
further covenants and agrees that any mechanic's lien filed against the
Premises or against the Building for work claimed to have been done for, or
materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant, will be discharged by
Tenant, by bond otherwise, within (10) days after the filing thereof, at the
cost and expense of Tenant. All alterations, additions or improvements upon
the Premises made by either party, including (without limiting the generality
of the foregoing) all wallcovering, built-in cabinet work, paneling and the
like, shall unless Landlord elects otherwise, become the property of
Landlord, and shall remain upon, and be surrendered with the Premises, as a
part thereof, at the end of the term hereof, except that Landlord may, by
written notice to Tenant, require Tenant to remove all partitions, counters,
railings and the like installed by Tenant, and Tenant shall repair all damage
resulting from such removal or, at Landlord's option, shall pay to Landlord
all costs arising from such removal.
b. All articles of personal property and all business and trade fixtures,
machinery and equipment, furniture and movable partitions owned by Tenant or
installed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises shall be and remain the
property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant at any time during the lease
term when Tenant is not in default hereunder. If Tenant shall fail to remove
all of its effects from the Premises upon termination of this Lease for any
cause whatsoever, Landlord may, at its option, remove the same in any manner
that Landlord shall choose, and store said effects without liability to
Tenant for loss thereof. In such event, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord upon
demand any and all expenses incurred in such removal, including court costs
and attorneys' fees and storage charges on such effects, for any length of
time that the same shall be in Landlord's possession. Landlord may, at its
option, without notice, sell said effects, or any of the same, at private
sale and without legal process, for such price as Landlord may obtain and
apply the proceeds of such sale upon any amounts due under this Lease from
Tenant to Landlord and upon the expense incident to the removal and sale of
said effects.
15. REPAIRS.
By entry hereunder, Tenant accepts the Premises as being in good and sanitary
order. Tenant shall keep, maintain and preserve the Premises in first class
condition and repair, and shall, when if needed, at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, make all repairs to the Premises and every part thereof. Tenant
shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the term hereof,
surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as when received,
usual and ordinary wear and tear excepted. Landlord shall have no obligation
to alter, remodel, improve, repair, decorate or paint the Premises or any
part thereof. The parties hereto affirm that Landlord has made no
representations to Tenant respecting the condition of the Premises, the
building, the Project or the Common Area except as specifically herein set
forth. See Addendum paragraph 4.
Page 5
16. LIENS.
Tenant shall not permit any mechanics', materialmens' or other liens to
be filed against Tenant's leasehold interest in the Premises. Landlord shall
have the right at all reasonable times to post and keep posed on the Premises
any notices which it deems necessary for protection from such liens. If any
such liens are filed, Landlord may, without waiving its rights and remedies
based on such breach of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any of its
obligations, cause such liens to be released by any means it shall deem
proper, including payments in satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such
lien. Tenant shall pay to Landlord at once, upon notice by Landlord, any sum
paid by Landlord to remove such liens, together with interest at the maximum
rate per annum permitted by law from the date of such payment by Landlord.
17. ENTRY BY LANDLORD.
Landlord reserves and shall, at normal business hours, have the right to
enter the Premises to inspect the same.
18. UTILITIES AND SERVICES.
Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, furnish or cause to be
furnished to the Premises all utilities and other services.
19. BANKRUPTCY.
If Tenant shall file a petition in bankruptcy under any provision of the
Bankruptcy Code as then in effect, or if Tenant shall be adjudicated a
bankrupt in involuntary bankruptcy proceedings and such adjudication shall
not have been vacated within thirty (30) days from the date thereof, or if a
receiver or trustee shall be appointed of Tenant's property and the order
appointing such receiver of trustee shall not be set aside or vacated within
(30) days after the entry thereof, or if Tenant shall assign Tenant's estate
or effects for the benefit of creditors, or if this Lease shall, by operation
of law or otherwise, pass to any person or persons other than Tenant, then in
any such event Landlord may terminate this Lease, if Landlord so elects, with
or without notice of such election and with or without entry or action by
Landlord. In such case, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease,
Landlord, in addition to any and all rights and remedies allowed by law or
equity, shall, upon such termination, be entitled to recover damages in the
amount provided in Paragraph 25b hereof. Neither Tenant nor any person
claiming through or under Tenant or by virtue of any statute or order of any
court shall be entitled to possession of the Premises but shall surrender the
Premises to Landlord. Nothing contained herein shall limit or prejudice the
right of Landlord to recover damages by reason of any such termination equal
to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect a the time
when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved;
whether or not such amount is greater, equal to or less than the amount of
damages recoverable under the provisions of this Paragraph 19.
20. INDEMNIFICATION AND EXCULPATION OF LANDLORD.
a. Except for latent defects, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold
Landlord harmless from all claims arising from Tenant's use of the Premises
or the conduct of its business or from any activity, work or thing done,
permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises, the Building, the
Project or the Common Area. Tenant shall further indemnify, defend and hold
Landlord harmless from all claims arising from any breach or default in the
performance of any obligation to be performed by Tenant under the terms of
this Lease, or arising from any act, neglect, fault or omission of Tenant or
of its agents or employees, and from and against all costs, attorneys' fees,
expenses and liabilities incurred in or about such claim or any action or
proceeding brought thereon. In case any action or proceeding shall 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 approved in
writing by Landlord. Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to
Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to person
in, upon or about the Premises from any cause whatsoever except for latent
defects and that which is caused by the failure of Landlord to observe any of
the terms and conditions of this Lease where such failure has persisted for
an unreasonable period of time after written notice of such failures. Tenant
hereby waives all its claims in respect thereof against Landlord.
b. Neither Landlord nor any partner, director, officer, agent or employee of
Landlord shall be liable to Tenant or its partners, directors, officers,
contractors, agents, employees, invitees, sublessees or licensees, for any
loss, injury or damage to Tenant or to any other person, or to its or their
property, irrespective of the cause of such injury, damage or loss, except
for latent defects or unless solely caused by or solely resulting from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its employees in the
operation or maintenance of the
Page 6
Premises, the building, or the Project without contributory negligence on
the part of Tenant or any of its sublessees or licensees or its or their
employees, agents or contractors, or any other lessees or occupants of the
building or Project. Further, neither Landlord nor any partner, director,
officer, agent or employee of Landlord shall be liable (i) for any such damage
caused by other lessees or persons in or about the building or Project, or
caused by quasi-public work; or (ii) for consequential damages arising out of
any loss of the use of the Premises of any equipment or facilities therein by
Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant.
21. DAMAGE TO TENANT'S PROPERTY.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 20 to the contrary and
excepting latent defects, Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for (i) any
damage to any property entrusted to employees of the building or Project, (ii)
loss or damage to any property by theft or otherwise, (iii) any injury or damage
to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, failing plaster, steam,
gas, electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the building or
from the pipes, appliances or plumbing work therein or from the roof, street or
subsurface or from any other place or resulting from dampness or any other cause
whatsoever. Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for interference with
light or other incorporeal hereditaments. Tenant shall give prompt notice to
Landlord in case of fire or accidents in the Premises or in the building or of
defects therein or in the fixtures or equipment.
22. TENANT'S INSURANCE.
a. Tenant shall, during the term hereof and any other period of occupancy, at
its sole cost and expense, keep in full force and effect the following
insurance:
(1) Standard form property insurance insuring against the perils of
fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended
coverage ("All-Risk") and sprinkler leakage. This insurance policy shall be
upon all property owned by Tenant, for which Tenant is legally liable or that
was installed at Tenant's expense, and which is located in the Project
including, without limitation, furniture, fittings, installations, fixtures
(other than Tenant improvements installed by Landlord), and any other
personal property, in an amount not less than ninety percent (90%) of the
full replacement cost thereof. In the event that there shall be a dispute as
to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the decision of Landlord
or any mortgagees of Landlord shall be conclusive. This insurance policy
shall also be upon direct or indirect loss of Tenant's earnings attributable
to Tenant's inability to use fully or obtain access to the Premises, Building
or Project in an amount as will properly reimburse Tenant. Such policy shall
name Landlord and any mortgagees of Landlord as insured parties, as their
respective interests may appear.
(2) Comprehensive General Liability Insurance insuring Tenant against
any liability arising out of the lease, use, occupancy or maintenance of the
Premises and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be in the
amount of $1,000,000 Combined Single Limit for injury to, or death of one or
more persons in an occurrence, and for damages to tangible property
(including loss of use) in an occurrence, with such liability amount to be
adjusted from year to year to reflect increase in the Consumer Price Index.
The policy shall insure the hazards of the Premises and Tenant's Operations
thereon, independent contractors, contractual liability (covering the
indemnity contained in Paragraph 20 hereof) and shall (a) name Landlord as an
additional insured, (b) contain a cross liability provision and (c) contain a
provision that the insurance provided the Landlord hereunder shall be primary
and non-contributing with any other insurance available to the Landlord.
(3) Workers' Compensation and Employees Liability insurance (as required
by state law).
(4) Any other form or forms of insurance as Tenant or Landlord or any
mortgages of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in form, in
amounts and for insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would protect
itself.
b. All policies shall be written in a form satisfactory to Landlord and shall
be taken out with insurance companies holding a General Policyholders Rating
of "A" and a Financial Rating of "X" or better, as set forth in the most
current issue of Best's Insurance Reports. Within ten (10) days after the
execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of policies
or certificates evidencing the existence of the amounts and forms of coverage
satisfactory to Landlord. No such policy shall be cancelable or reducible in
coverage except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord.
Tenant shall, within ten (10) days prior to the expiration of such policies,
furnish Landlord with renewals or "binders" thereof, or Landlord may order
such insurance and charge the cost thereof to Tenant as additional rent. If
Landlord obtains any insurance that is the responsibility of Tenant under
this Paragraph, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written statement setting
forth the cost of any such insurance and showing in reasonable detail the
manner in which it has been computed.
Page 7
c. During the term of this Lease, Landlord shall insure the Building (excluding
any property which Tenant is obligated to insure under Subparagraphs 22a and b
hereof) against damage with All-Risk insurance and public liability insurance,
all in such amounts and with such deductions as Landlord considers appropriate.
Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain and carry any other form or
forms of insurance as it or Landlord's mortgagees may determine advisable.
Notwithstanding any reimbursement by Tenant to the cost of insurance premiums,
as provided herein, Tenant acknowledges that it has not right to receive any
proceeds from any insurance policies carried by Landlord.
d. Tenant will not keep, use, sell or offer for sale in or upon the Premises
any article which may be prohibited by any insurance policy periodically in
force covering the Building. If Tenant's occupancy or business in, or on, the
Premises, whether or not Landlord has consented to the same, results in any
increase in premiums for the insurance periodically carried by Landlord with
respect to the Building, Tenant shall pay any such increase in premiums as
additional rent within ten (10) days after being billed therefore by
Landlord. In determining whether increased premiums are a result of Tenant's
use of the Premises, a schedule issued by the organization computing the
insurance rate on the Building or the Tenant Improvements showing the various
components of such rate, shall be conclusive evidence of the several items
and charges which make up such rate. Tenant shall promptly comply with all
reasonable requirements of the insurance authority or any present or future
insurer relating to the Premises.
e. If any of Landlord's insurance policies shall be canceled or cancellation
shall be threatened or the coverage thereunder reduced or threatened to be
reduced in any way because of the use of the Premises or any part thereof by
Tenant or any assignee or subtenant of Tenant or by anyone Tenant permits on
the Premises and, if Tenant fails to remedy the condition giving rise to
such cancellation, threatened cancellation, reduction of coverage, threatened
reduction of coverage, increase in premiums, or threatened increase in
premiums, within forty-eight (48) hours after notice thereof, Landlord may,
at its option, either terminate this Lease or enter upon the Premises and
attempt to remedy such condition, and Tenant shall promptly pay the cost
thereof to Landlord as additional rent. Landlord shall not be liable for any
damage or injury caused to any property of Tenant or of others located on the
Premises resulting from such entry. If Landlord is unable, or elects not to
remedy such condition, then Landlord shall have all of the remedies provided
for in this Lease in the event of a default by Tenant. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Subparagraph 22e, if Tenant fails to remedy as
aforesaid, Tenant shall be in default of its obligation hereunder and
Landlord shall have no obligation to remedy such default.
f. All policies of insurance required hereunder shall include a clause or
endorsement denying the insurer any rights of subrogation against the other
party to the extent rights have been waived by the insured before the
occurrence of injury or loss. Landlord and Tenant waive any rights of
recovery against the other for injury or loss due to hazards covered by
policies of insurance containing such a waiver of subrogation clause or
endorsement to the extent of the injury or loss covered thereby.
23. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.
a. In the event the building and/or the Premises is damaged by fire or other
perils covered by Landlord's insurance, Landlord shall:
(1) In the event of total destruction, at Landlord's option, as soon as
reasonably possible thereafter, commence repair, reconstruction and
restoration of the building and/or the Premises and prosecute the same
diligently to completion, in which event this Lease shall remain in full
force and effect; or within ninety (90) days after such damage, elect not to
so repair, reconstruct or restore the building and/or the Premises, in which
event this Lease shall terminate. In either event, Landlord shall give Tenant
written notice of its intention within said ninety (90) day period. In the
event Landlord elects not to restore the building, and/or the Premises, this
Lease shall be deemed to have terminated as of the date of such total
destruction.
(2) In the event of a partial destruction of the building and/or the
Premises, to an extent not exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full
insurable value thereof, and if the damage thereto is such that the building
and/or the Premises may be repaired, reconstructed or restored within a period
of ninety (90) days from the date of the happening of such casualty, and if
Landlord will receive insurance proceeds sufficient to cover the cost of such
repairs, then Landlord shall commence and proceed diligently with the work
repair, reconstruction and restoration and this Lease shall continue in full
force and effect. If such work of repair, reconstruction and restoration shall
require a period longer than ninety (90) days or exceeds twenty-five percent
(25%) of the full insurable value thereof, or if said insurance proceeds will
not be sufficient to cover the cost of such repairs, then Landlord either may
elect to so repair, reconstruct or restore and the Lease shall continue in full
force and effect or Landlord may elect not to repair, reconstruct or restore and
the Lease shall then terminate. Under any of the conditions of this Xxxxxxxxxxxx
00x (0), Xxxxxxxx shall give written notice to Tenant of its intention within
said ninety (90) day period. In the event Landlord elects not to restore the
building
Page 8
and/or the Premises, this Lease shall be deemed to have terminated as of the
date of such partial destruction.
b. Upon any termination of this Lease under any of the provisions of this
Paragraph 23, the parties shall be released without further obligation to the
other from the date possession of the Premises is surrendered to Landlord
except for items which have therefore accrued and are then unpaid.
c. In the event of repair, reconstruction and restoration by Landlord as
herein provided, the rental payable under this Lease shall be abated
proportionately with the degree to which Tenant's use of the Premises is
impaired during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration;
provided that there shall be no abatement of rent if such damage is the
result of Tenant's negligence or intentional wrongdoing. Tenant shall not be
entitled to any compensation or damages for loss in the use of the whole or
any part of the Premises and/or any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by
such damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration.
d. Tenant shall not be released from any of its obligations under this Lease
except to the extent and upon the conditions expressly stated in this
Paragraph 23. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Paragraph 23, if Landlord is delayed or prevented from repairing or restoring
the damaged Premises within one (1) year after the occurrence of such damage
or destruction by reason of acts of God, war, governmental restrictions,
inability to procure the necessary labor or materials, or other cause beyond
the control of Landlord, Landlord, at its option, may terminate this Lease,
whereupon Landlord shall be relieved of its obligation to make such repairs
or restoration and Tenant shall be released from its obligations under this
Lease as of the end of said one year period.
e. If damage is due to any cause other than fire or other peril covered by
extended coverage insurance, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease.
f. If Landlord is obligated to or elects to repair or restore as herein
provided, Landlord shall be obligated to make repair or restoration only of
those portions of the building and the Premises which were originally
provided at Landlord's expense, and the repair and restoration of items not
provided at Landlord's expense shall be the obligation of Tenant.
g. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Xxxxxxxxx 00,
Xxxxxxxx shall not have any obligation whatsoever to repair, reconstruct or
restore the Premises when the damage resulting from any casualty covered
under this Paragraph 23 occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the term
of this Lease or any extension hereof.
h. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the provisions of any statues or court
decisions which relate to the abatement or termination of leases when
property is damaged or destroyed and agree that such event shall be
exclusively governed by the terms of this Lease.
24. EMINENT DOMAIN.
a. In case all of the Premises, or such part thereof as shall substantially
interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy thereof, shall be taken for any
public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power of authority by exercise
of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to
prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this
Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to
said authority. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the
taking authority for any compensation because of such taking, and Landlord
shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction
for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or
the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the conduct
of Tenant's business, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the
award without such partial taking, and a proportionate allowance shall be
made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to
the part of the Premises of which, Tenant shall be so deprived on account of
such taking and restoration. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall be
deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the
taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant.
b. In the event of taking of the Premises or any part thereof for temporary
use, (1) this Lease shall be and remain unaffected thereby and rent shall not
xxxxx, and (2) Tenant shall be entitled to receive for itself such portion or
portions of any award made for such use with respect to the period of the
taking which is within the term, provided that if such taking shall remain in
force at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
then pay to Landlord a sum equal to the reasonable cost of performing
Tenant's obligations under Paragraph 15 with respect to surrender of the
Premises and upon such payment shall be excused from such obligations. For
purpose of this Subparagraph 24b, a temporary taking shall be defined as a
taking for a period of 270 days or less.
Page 9
25. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.
a. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute
a default hereunder by Tenant:
(1) The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant. Abandonment
is herein defined to include, but is not limited to, any absence by Tenant
from the Premises for ten (10) business days or longer while in default of
any provision of this Lease.
(2) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or additional rent
or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due.
(3) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the express or
implied covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by
Tenant, other than as specified in Subparagraph 25a. (1) or (2) above, where
such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after written
notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant. If the nature of Tenant's default is
such that more than (10) days are reasonably required for its cure, then
Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall commence such
cure within said ten (10) day period and thereafter diligently prosecute such
cure to completion, which completion shall occur not later than sixty (60)
days from the date of such notice from Landlord.
(4) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of
creditors; the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant
adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any
law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against
Tenant, the same is dismissed within thirty (30) days); the appointment of a
trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's
assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where
possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or the
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of
Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease
where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days.
b. In the event of any such default by Tenant, in addition to any other
remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the
immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder.
In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease then
Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(1) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned
at the time of such termination; plus
(2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount
of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(3) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount
of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(4) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the
detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's
obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would
be likely to result therefrom.
As used in Subparagraphs 25b (1) and (2) above, the "worth at the time of
award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate permitted by law.
As used in Subparagraph 25b (3) above, the "worth at the time of award" is
computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
c. In the event of any such default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the
right, with or without terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Premises and
remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be
removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for
the account of Tenant. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by
Landlord pursuant to this paragraph 25c shall be construed as an election to
terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to
Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent
jurisdiction.
d. In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant or
in the event that Landlord shall elect to re-enter as provided above or shall
take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to
any notice provided by law, then if Landlord does not elect to terminate this
Lease as provided above, Landlord may from time to time, without terminating
this Lease, either recover all rent as it becomes due or relet the Premises
or any part thereof for the term
Page 10
for this Lease on terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may
deem advisable with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises.
In the event that Landlord shall elect to so relet, then rentals
received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the
payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to
Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to
the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises,
fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder and the residue, if
any, shall be held by Landlord and applied to payment of future rent as the
same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such
rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to
the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that
month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord
immediately upon demand therefore by Landlord. Such deficiency shall be
calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as
ascertained, any costs and expenses incurred, including but not limited to
brokers' commissions, by Landlord in such reletting or in making such
alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such
reletting.
e. All rights, options and remedies of Landlord contained in this Lease shall
be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one of them shall be exclusive
of the other, and Landlord shall have the right to pursue any one or all of
such remedies or any other remedy or relief which may be provided by law,
whether or not stated in this Lease. No waiver of any default of Tenant
hereunder shall be implied from any acceptance by Landlord of any rent or
other payments due hereunder or any omission by Landlord to take any action
on account of such default if such default persists or is repeated, and no
express waiver shall affect defaults other as specified in said waiver. The
consent or approval of Landlord to or of any act by Tenant requiring
Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent similar acts
by Tenant.
26. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
a. Tenant shall not voluntarily assign or encumber its interest in this Lease
or in the Premises or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or allow any
other person or entity to occupy or use all or any part of the Premises,
without first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent. Any assignment,
encumbrance or sublease without Landlord's prior written consent shall be
voidable at Landlord's election and shall constitute a default. For purposes
hereof, in the event Tenant is a partnership, a withdrawal or change in one
or more transfers of partners owning more than a fifty percent (50%) interest
in the partnership, of if Tenant's a corporation, any transfer of fifty
percent (50%) of its stock in one or more transfers, shall constitute a
voluntary assignment and shall be subject to these provisions. No consent to
an assignment, encumbrance or sublease shall constitute a further waiver of
the provisions of this Paragraph. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of
Tenant's intent to assign, encumber or sublease this Lease, the name of the
proposed assignee or sublessee, information concerning the financial
responsibility of the proposed assignee or sublessee and the terms of the
proposed assignment or subletting, and Landlord shall, within thirty (30)
days of receipt of such written notice, and additional information requested
by Landlord concerning the proposed assignee's financial responsibility,
elect one of the following: (1) consent to such proposed assignment,
encumbrance or sublease; (2) refuse such consent, which refusal shall be on
reasonable grounds; or (3) elect to terminate this Lease, or in the case of a
partial sublease, terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises
proposed to be sublet. As a condition for granting its consent to any
assignment, encumbrance or sublease, Landlord may require that the rent
payable by such assignee or sublessee is at the then current published rental
rates for the Premises or comparable premises in the Building, but not less
than the then current published rental rates for the Premises or comparable
premises in the Building, but not less than the then current Base Monthly
Rent under this Lease and may require that the assignee or sublessee remit
directly to Landlord on a monthly basis, all monies due to Tenant by said
assignee or sublessee. In addition, a condition to Landlord's consent to any
assignment, transfer or hypothecation of this Lease shall be the delivery to
Landlord of a true copy of the fully executed instrument of assignment,
transfer or hypothecation, and the delivery to Landlord of an agreement
executed by the assignee in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord and
expressly enforceable by Landlord, whereby the assignee assumes and agrees to
be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Lease and to perform all
of the obligations of Tenant hereunder.
b. As a condition to Landlord's consent to any sublease, such sublease shall
provide that it is subject and subordinate to this Lease and to all mortgages;
that Landlord may enforce the provisions of the sublease, including collection
of rent; that in the event of termination of this Lease for any reason,
including without limitation a voluntary surrender by Tenant, or in the event of
any reentry or repossession of the Premises by Landlord, Landlord may, at its
option, either (1) terminate the sublease or (2) take over all of the right,
title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor, under such sublease, in which case
such sublessee shall attorn to Landlord, but that nevertheless Landlord shall
not (1) be liable for any previous act or omission of Tenant under such
sublease, (2) be subject to any defense or offset previously accrued in favor
of the sublessee against Tenant, or (3) be bound by any
Page 11
previous modification of any sublease made without Landlord's written
consent, or by previous prepayment by sublessee of more than one month's rent.
c. In the event that Landlord shall consent to an assignment or sublease
under the provisions of this Paragraph 26, Tenant shall pay Landlord's
processing costs of $750.00 and reasonable, but not more than actual,
attorneys' fees incurred in giving such consent. If Landlord shall consent to
any assignment of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional
rent, three-quarters (3/4) of all sums and other considerations payable to
and for the benefit of Tenant by the assignee on account of the assignment,
as and when such sums and other consideration are due and payable by the
assignee to or for the benefit of Tenant (or, if Landlord so requires, and
without any release of Tenant's proposed sublease Tenant receives rent or
other consideration, either initially or over the term of the sublease, in
excess of the rent called for hereunder or, in case of the sublease of a
portion of the Premises, in excess of such rent fairly allocable to such
portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments
called for hereunder are taken into account. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as
additional rent hereunder three quarters (3/4) of the excess of each such
payment of rent or other consideration received by Tenant promptly after its
receipt. Landlord's waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall
not relieve Tenant or any assignee or sublessee from any obligation under
this Lease whether or not accrued. Occupancy of all or part of the Premises
by parent or subsidiary companies of Tenant shall not be deemed an assignment
or subletting. If Tenant requests Landlord's consent to any assignment of
this Lease or any subletting of all or a portion of the Premises, Landlord
shall have the right, to be exercised by giving written notice to Tenant
within (30) days of receipt by Landlord of the financial responsibility
information required by this Paragraph 26, to terminate this Lease effective
as of the date Tenant proposes to assign this Lease or sublet all or a
portion of the Premises. Landlord's right to terminate this Lease as to all
or a portion of the Premises or Landlord's failure to exercise this right
with respect to any assignment or subletting. Tenant understands and
acknowledges that the option, as provided in this Paragraph 26, to terminate
this Lease rather than approve the assignment thereof or the subletting of
all or any portion of the Premises, is a material inducement for Landlord's
agreeing to lease the Premises to Tenant upon the terms and conditions herein
set forth.
d. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby approves the sublease by
and between the Tenant as Sublessor and Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx as Sublessee
with an execution date of June 1, 1997 ("Sublease"), subject only to Ground
Lessor's approval. See Addendum paragraph 1.
27. SUBORDINATION.
a. Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant
for the purpose of effecting a subordination, and at the election of the
Landlord or any mortgage with a lien on the building or any ground lessor
with respect to the building, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate at
all times to:
(1) all ground lease or underlying leases which may now exist or
hereafter be executed affecting the building or the land upon which the
building is situated or both; and
(2) the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust which may now exist or
hereafter be executed in any amount for which the building, land, ground
leases or underlying leases, or Landlord's interest or estate in any of said
items is specified as security.
b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to
subordinate or cause to be subordinated any such ground leases or underlying
leases or any such liens to this Lease. In the event that any ground lease or
underlying lease terminates for any reason or any mortgage or deed of trust
is foreclosed or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason,
Tenant shall, notwithstanding any subordination, attorn to and become the
Tenant of the successor in interest to Landlord, at the option of such
successor in interest. Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver,
upon demand by Landlord and in the form requested by Landlord, any additional
documents evidencing the priority of subordination of this Lease with respect
to any such ground leases or underlying leases or the lien of any such
mortgage or deed of trust. Should Tenant fail to sign and return any such
documents within ten (10) business days of request Tenant shall be in
default, and Landlord may, at Landlord's option, terminate the Lease provided
written notice of such termination is received by Tenant prior to Landlord's
receipt of such documents. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as
attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute, deliver and record any such document
in the name and on behalf of Tenant.
28. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
a. Within ten (10) days following any written request from either
party hereunder to the other, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver to
the other party a statement, certifying: (1) the date of
Page 12
commencement of this Lease: (2) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in
full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications hereto, that this
Lease is in full force and effect, and stating the date and nature of such
modifications); (3) the date to which the rental and other sums payable under
this Lease have been paid; (4) that there are no current defaults under this
Lease by either Landlord or Tenant except as specified in the parties written
statement; and (5) such other matters requested by the requesting party.
Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this
Paragraph 28 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or
prospective purchaser of the Building or any interest therein.
b. Failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive
upon the parties that (1) that this Lease is in full force and effect,
without modification except as may be represented by the requesting party,
(2) that there are no uncured defaults in the requesting parties performance,
and (3) that not more than one (1) month's rental has been paid in advance.

conditions and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns.
31. SURRENDER OF PREMISES.
The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual
cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of
Landlord, operate as an assignment to it of any or all subleases or
subtenancies. Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
peaceably surrender the Premises and all alterations and additions thereto,
broom clean the Premises, leave the Premises in good order, repair and
condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and comply with the provisions
of Paragraph 15. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or to
Landlord's agent or any employee thereof shall not be sufficient to
constitute a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises.
32. PROFESSIONAL FEES.
a. If Landlord should bring suit for possession of the Premises, for the
recovery of any sum due under this lease, or because of the breach of any
provisions of this Lease, or for any other relief against Tenant hereunder,
or in the event of any other litigation or appeal between the parties with
respect to this Lease, then all costs and expenses, including without
limitation, its reasonable, actual professional fees such as appraisers',
accountants' and attorneys' fees, incurred by the prevailing party therein
shall be paid by the other party, which obligation on the part of the other
party shall be deemed to have accrued on the date of the commencement of such
action and shall be enforceable whether or not the action is prosecuted to
judgment. If Landlord employs a collection agency to recover delinquent
charges, Tenant agrees to pay all reasonable collection agency fees charged
to Landlord in addition to rent, late charges, interest and other sums
payable under this Lease.
b. If Landlord is named as a defendant in any suit or appeal brought against
Tenant in connection with or arising out of Tenant's occupancy hereunder,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord its costs and expenses incurred in such suit,
including without limitation, its reasonable professional fees such as
appraisers', accountants' and attorneys' fees.
33. PERFORMANCE BY TENANT.
All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the
terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sale cost and
expense and without any abatement of rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any
sum of money owed to any party other than Landlord, for which it is liable
hereunder, or if Tenant shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be
performed hereunder, and such failure shall continue for ten (10) days after
notice thereof by Landlord, Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant
from obligations of Tenant, but shall not be obligated to, making any such
payment or perform any such other act to be made or performed by Tenant. All
sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs together with
interest thereon at the maximum rate permissible by law, from the date of
such payment by Landlord, shall be payable to Landlord on demand. Tenant
covenants to pay any such sums, and Landlord shall have (in addition to any
other right or remedy of Landlord) all rights and remedies in the event of
the non-payment thereof by Tenant as are set forth in Paragraph 25.
Page 13
34. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION.
In the event of any default on the part of Landlord, Tenant will give
notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed of trust
or mortgage covering the Premises whose address shall have been furnished to
Tenant, and shall offer such beneficiary or mortgagee a reasonable
opportunity to cure the default.
35. DEFINITION OF LANDLORD.
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 of the Premises or the lessees under any ground lease, if any. In
the event of any transfer, assignment or other conveyance or transfers of any
such title, Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers or
conveyances, the then grantor) shall be automatically freed and relieved from
and after the date of such transfer, assignment or conveyance of all
liability as respects the performance of any covenants or obligations on the
part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed. Without
further agreement, the transferee of such title 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. Landlord may transfer its
interest in the Premises without the consent of Tenant and such transfer or
subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord's part of any
of the terms and conditions of this Lease.
36. WAIVER.
The waiver by either party of any breach of any term, covenant or
condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein
contained, nor shall any custom or practice which may grow up between the
parties in the administration of the terms hereof be deemed a waiver of or in
any way affect the right of the parties to insist upon the performance by the
other party in strict accordance with said terms.
The subsequent acceptance of rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or
condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the
particular rent so accepted, regardless of landlord's knowledge of such
preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent. No acceptance by
Landlord of a lessor sum than the basic rental and additional rent or other
sum then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest
installment of such rent or other amount due, nor shall any endorsement or
statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check be deemed an
accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment
without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such
installment or other amount or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

to pay to Lessor $1,000.00 per month commencing on the first day of
February , 1978. Said payments shall continue until the Lease
commences. If the Lease commences on a day other than the first day of a

other property owned by Lessor, comprise a shopping center development
known as XXXXXXX ROAD PLAZA, referred to hereinafter throughout this

developed for the purpose of a shopping center. A general site plan of the
Shopping Center, showing, among other things, the principal improvements
which comprise said Shopping Center, is attached hereto as Exhibit A and
made a part hereof, Lessee acknowledges that the site plan shown on Exhibit
A is tentative and that Lessor may change the shape, size, location,
number and extent of the improvements shown thereon and eliminate or add
any improvements to any portion of the Shopping Center, provided Lessor
shall not change the size or location of the demised premises. Lessor
reserves the absolute right to effect such other tenancies in the Shopping
Center as Lessor in the exercise of this sole business judgment shall
determine to best promote the interest of the Shopping Center.
4A. COMMON AREAS. The Shopping Center plot plan attached hereto as
Exhibit "A" outlines parking and other "Common Areas" which have been
designated and improved for common use by and for the benefit of all the
tenants leasing space in the Shopping Center. Such Common Areas include
parking areas, access and perimeter roads, service corridors, landscaped
areas, sidewalks, loading areas, etc.. All common areas are and shall be
subject to the exclusive control and management of the Lessor, and
Lessor's nominees and assigns shall have the right to establish, modify,
amend and enforce reasonable rules and regulations with respect to the
common areas.
-2-
It is agreed by and between Lessor and Lessee that Lessee will develop
and maintain sufficient parking, landscaping and other common areas within
Lessee's demised premises to accommodate all of the Lessee's employees,
customers, officers, etc. However, it is agreed between Lessor and Lessee
that the parking and common areas of the demised premises and of the
entire Shopping Center are subject to the non-exclusive use of any and
all customers of the entire Shopping Center. Lessee covenants and agrees
that employees and officers will park their automobiles in designated
areas within Lessee's demised premises. Lessor will use Lessor's best
efforts to prevent employees of other Shopping Center tenants from
parking their automobiles in Lessee's demised premises.
Lessor shall have the right to establish, modify, amend and enforce
reasonable rules and regulations with respect to the common areas in the
Shopping Center and in the demised premises. Lessee agrees to abide by and
conform with such rules and regulations; to cause its concessionaires,
and its and their employees and agents, so to abide and conform; and to use
its best efforts to cause its customers, invitees and licensees to so
abide and conform. In no event shall Lessee have the right to sell or
solicit in any manner in any of the common areas.
Lessee shall be responsible for the cost of maintaining and operating
the common areas within its demised premises and Lessor shall be
responsible of the remainder of the common areas in the Shopping Center.
Lessee shall pay no part of taxes, insurance, maintenance or other costs
associated with the common areas of the Shopping Center not included
within this Lease.
5. USE. It is understood and agreed by and between the parties
hereto, that Lessor is leasing to Lessee the ground only, and that Lessee
shall use the premises for the operation of a savings and loan business
similar to Lessee's other operations in California and for no other use or
purpose whatsoever without first securing the written approval of the
Lessor which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
6. IMPROVEMENTS AND PERMITS. As quickly as reasonably possible,
Lessee shall prepare plans and specifications for a "Savings and Loan
Building" one story in height and containing not less than 6000 square
feet and not more than 8000 square feet in floor area. Said building shall
be similar in design to Lessee's other buildings. Lessor shall have the
right to approve the exterior design of the building. Plans shall show all
site work, landscaping, parking area, signs, etc.
-3-
Lessee shall be responsible for all work and costs incurred in
connection with all phases of planning, construction, site work, street
improvements, demolition, landscaping, permits, survey, title reports, etc.
Lessor shall not be required to pay any portion of the cost. Lessee agrees to
complete plans and specifications, secure permits and complete the
construction of the improvements and development of the leased premises as
quickly as reasonably possible. All such construction and development work
shall be at the sole cost and expense of Lessee and be of good quality,
consistent with the then existing standards of practice in the City of San
Xxxx Obispo for developments of a comparable nature. All buildings and/or
improvements erected on the demised premises shall be and become the property
of Lessor, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this lease.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, Lessor agrees that in
the event the City of San Xxxx Obispo (as a condition to granting Lessee
permit) requires certain improvements in parts of the Shopping Center (other
than the demised premises) Lessor will pay the cost of such improvements, up
to, but not in excess of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00).

9. INTENTION OF THE PARTIES. Nothing in this lease shall cause Lessor
in any way to be construed as a partner, a joint venturer, or associated in
any way with the Lessee in the operation of said premises, or subject Lessor
to any obligation, loss, charge, or expense connected with or arising from
the operation or use of said premises or any part thereof. It is understood
and agreed that this lease shall be a net-net lease with respect to Lessor,
and that all taxes, assessments, insurance, utilities and other operating
costs and all repairs, remodeling, renovations, alterations and improvements,
and all other costs, charges and expenses of any kind whatsoever respecting
the leased premises accruing after the date of this lease shall be borne by
Lessee and not by Lessor, so that the rental return to Lessor shall not be
reduced, offset, or diminished directly or indirectly by any cost or charge,
nor subject to suspension or termination for any cause, except as otherwise
expressly provided in Paragraph 20 herein. It is further agreed that upon the
expiration or other termination of this lease, Lessee shall peacefully
surrender to Lessor the premises with the improvements in good repair and in
satisfactory condition for the immediate continuation thereon of such
businesses as were conducted thereon prior thereto.
10. UTILITIES. Lessee shall pay for water, gas and heat, light, power,
telephone service, and all other utility services supplied to said premises
during the entire term of the within lease.
-5-
11. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. Lessee shall, at his sole cost, keep and
maintain the demised premises, and every part thereof, now or hereafter
constructed or located on the demised premises, in good and sanitary order,
condition and repair, and agrees to surrender on the last day of the term of
this lease or sooner termination of this lease unto Lessor all and singular
said premises with improvements thereon in good condition.
Lessee hereby waives all rights to make repairs at the expense of
Lessor, as provided in Section 1942 of the California Civil Code, and all
rights provided for by Section 1941 of the California Civil Code.
Lessee hereby acknowledges that he has inspected the premises and
improvements thereon and does hereby declare that he accepts the same in
their present condition and state of repair, without any representations or
warranties, express or implied, on the part of the Lessor, except as
otherwise specifically provided herein or in the option attached to this
lease.
12. USE PROHIBITED BY FIRE INSURANCE POLICY. Lessee shall not use or
permit said premises or any part thereof to be used for any purpose or
purposes other than the purpose or purposes for which said premises are
hereby leased; and no use shall be made or permitted to be made of said
premises or acts done which will cause the cancellation of any insurance
policy required under the terms of this lease. Lessee shall, at his sole
cost, comply with any and all requirements pertaining to the use of said
premises of any insurance organization or company necessary for maintenance
of all insurance required under the terms of this lease.
13. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Lessee shall, at his sole cost and expense,
comply with all of the requirements of all municipal, state and federal,
authorities now in force, or which may hereafter be in force, pertaining to
the said premises, and shall faithfully observe in the use of the premises
all municipal ordinances and state and federal statutes now in force or which
may hereafter be in force. The judgment of any court of competent
jurisdiction, or the admission of Lessee in any action or proceeding against
Lessee, whether Lessor be a party thereto or not, that Lessee has violated
any such ordinances or statutes in the use of the premises shall be
conclusive of that fact as between Lessor and Lessee.
14. WASTE. Neither Lessor nor Lessee shall commit, or suffer to be
committed, any waste on said premises, or any nuisance or other act or
-6-
thing which may disturb the quiet enjoyment of the other in the leased
premises.
15. TAXES. Lessee agrees to pay all taxes and assessments, general and
special, and all other impositions, ordinary and extraordinary, of every kind
and nature whatsoever, levied or assessed on the premises, or any part
thereof, or on any buildings or improvements at any time situated thereon, or
levied or assessed on the interest of Lessor in and/or under this lease, said
obligation to begin as of the date of the commencement of the lease and
continue for the term of this lease. All such taxes, assessments and other
impositions shall be paid by Lessee in the name of Lessor before the same
shall become delinquent. For purposes of this Section 15, "taxes" shall also
include any tax assessed upon or measured by rents received by Lessor under
or in connection with this lease.
The preceeding paragraph shall not be deemed or construed so as to require
Lessee to pay any personal income taxes, personal property taxes, estate or
inheritance taxes or franchise taxes against Lessor, but not directly against
said property, even though such taxes shall become a lien against the demised
premises.
Lessee shall have the right to contest the validity of any tax or special
assessment payable by him, which he deems to have been illegally levied or
assessed against the premises, and for that purpose shall have the right to
institute such proceeding or proceedings in the name of Lessor as he may deem
necessary; provided that expenses incurred by reason thereof shall be paid by
Lessee, and provided further that all such proceedings may be carried on in
the name of Lessor and Lessor shall receive notice and full information of
all steps during said proceedings; provided further, that, upon the final
determination of such contest, Lessee shall immediately pay and discharge any
judgment rendered, together with all costs and charges incidental thereto,
and shall cause the lien thereof to be released from the lease premises.
Lessee agrees without demand or notice to deliver to Lessor from time to
time satisfactory evidence of payment of all taxes, assessments and other
impositions.
-7-
16. MECHANICS LIENS. The Lessee agrees to keep the leased premises and any
part thereof at all times free of mechanics liens and other liens for labor,
services, supplies, equipment or material purchased or procured, directly or
indirectly, by or for Lessee. Lessee, however, shall have the right to
contest the validity or amount of any such lien as filed and upon the final
determination of such contest, shall immediately pay and discharge any
judgment rendered, together with all costs and charges incidental thereto,
and shall cause the lien thereof to be released from the leased premises.
Should the Lessee fail, within thirty (30) days after notice of the filing of
any such lien, to discharge or cause the release of such liens or charges or
to contest the same then the Lessor, at Lessor's option, may satisfy said
liens by payment thereof, and in such event, the amount of such payment,
together with interest thereon at the rate of eight per cent (8%) per year
from the time the payment is so made until repayment thereof shall be payable
by Lessee at the time the next installments of rental shall be due and
payable.
-8-
17. INSURANCE. The Lessee shall, at his sole cost, at all times
during the term of this Lease keep the improvements to be constructed on
real property herein demised insured against loss by fire and the perils
covered by an extended coverage endorsement in an amount not less than
that required by an eighty percent (80%) co-insurance policy covering
all buildings now or hereafter located on the demised premises,
exclusive of foundations and excavations, and shall keep the contents of
said demised premises insured in an amount sufficient to satisfy said 80%
co-insurance policy. The full insurable value of said building and
contents shall be fixed and determined by audit-appraisal at least every
five (5) years during the within term in order to qualify for 80%
co-insurance.
In the event any insurance provided for in this paragraph shall become
payable on account of damage to or destruction of the improvements now or
hereafter constructed on the demised premises, Lessee shall forthwith expend
the full amount, or so much thereof as is required, to restore the premises
to the condition in which they were prior to such damage or destruction, or
with improvements of comparable value of any type then permitted under the
then applicable zoning regulations. Any surplus remaining after completion of
said work shall belong to Lessee. Any deficiency shall be the responsibility
of Lessee. Lessor shall have no responsibility concerning said reconstruction
work or the payment therefor, but shall be named as joint payee of any
insurance proceeds solely for his security.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 17, if
during the last five years of the lease term or any extension or extensions
thereof, any improvement erected on the land shall be damaged by fire or
other casualty and if the cost of repairing or restoring the same shall
exceed the insurance proceeds payable for such damage, then Lessee shall have
the option, to be exercised within thirty (30) days after such event, (1) to
repair or to restore the improvement, or (2) to terminate this Lease by
written notice to Lessor.
Such option to terminate shall be conditioned as follows:
1) Lessee shall at its expense within ninety (90) days after the damage
occurs, tear down and remove all parts of the building and other improvements
then remaining and the debris resulting from such fire or other casualty and
otherwise clean up and restore the land, as far as practicable, to its
original condition; and
2) Within ten (10) days after the completion of the clean-up and
restoration, Lessee shall surrender to Lessor possession of the land, cleaned
up and restored, and shall pay to Lessor any rent accruing to the date of
such surrender; and
3) Thereupon, but not before, said Lease shall terminate.
18. INDEMNITY AND LIABILITY INSURANCE. This Lease is made upon the
express condition that Lessor is to be free from all liability and claims for
damages by reason of any injury to any person or persons, including Lessee,
all property of any kind whatsoever and to whomsoever belonging, including
Lessee, from any cause or causes whatsoever, except for negligence or wilful
acts by Landlord or its agents or employees, while in, upon, about, or in any
way connected with the said demised premises or the sidewalk adjacent thereto
during the term of this Lease or any extension thereof or any occupancy
hereunder, Lessee hereby covenanting and agreeing to indemnify and save
harmless Lessor from all liability, loss, cost, and obligation on account of
or arising out of any such injury or loss however occurring, including, but
not by way of limitation, reasonable attorney's fees.
-9-
Lessee further agrees to take out and keep in force during the life
hereof at Lessee's expense, public liability insurance against any liability
to the public incident to the use of or resulting from any accident occurring
in or about said demised premises, the liability under such insurance to be
not less than Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) for any one person
injured, or Five Hundred Thousand ($500,000.00) for any one accident, or One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) for property damage.
There policies shall insure the contingent liability of Lessor and
Lessor shall be named as co-insured in such policies.
Respecting the insurance coverage required both by this paragraph
and by paragraph 17 above, a certificate of insurance shall be placed with
Lessor, and Lessee agrees to obtain a written obligation on the part of the
insurance carriers to notify Lessor in writing at least thirty (30) days
prior to any cancellation thereof, and Lessee further agrees that if Lessee
does not keep such insurance in full force and effect, Lessor may take out the
necessary insurance and pay the premium and the repayment thereof, with
interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per year, shall be deemed to be
part of the rental and repaid at the time that the next installment of rent
becomes due.
19. WAIVER OF LIABILITY. Lessee, as a material part of the
consideration to be rendered to Lessor, hereby waives all claims against
Lessor for damages to goods, wares, merchandise, in, upon, or about said
premises, and for injuries to Lessee, his agents or third parties in and
about said premises from any cause arising at any time, other than due to
fault of Lessor not otherwise absolved under the terms hereof.
20. EMINENT DOMAIN.
A. If title to all of the lease premises is taken for any public
or quasi-public use under any statute, or by right of eminent domain, or by
private purchase in lieu of eminent domain, or if title to so much of the
premises is so taken that the portion of the premises remaining will not be
reasonably suited for Lessee's continued occupancy for the purpose of
conducting the savings and loan business, then in either event, this Lease
shall terminate on the date that possession or title is taken by the
condemning authority, whichever first occurs.
If any of the premises shall be so taken and the remaining part
thereof is reasonably suitable for Lessee's continued occupancy for the
-10-
purpose of conducting a savings and loan business, this Lease shall, as to
the part so taken, terminate as of the date possession or title of such part
is taken by the condemning authority, whichever first occurs, and the current
rental shall be reduced in the same proportion that the square footage of the
premises so taken bears to the original square footage of the premises.
B. All condemnation awarded or paid upon a total or partial
taking of the premises shall belong to the Lessor and Lessee as their
respective interests appear; provided, however, and without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Lessee shall have a claim for the unamortized
value over the term of this Lease, or the then current extension thereof if
applicable, for all improvements constructed or otherwise installed on or
about the premises by Lessee plus the value of its furniture, fixtures and
equipment, and for moving or relocation expenses to the extent that any such
items of damages are reflected or are included in the condemnation award, but
Lessee shall in no event be entitled to any part of any award for land.
C. In the event of a taking of a strip of land twenty-four (24)
feet wide or less for the purpose of widening Xxxxxxx Road and/or Xxxxx
Xxxxxxx, Lessee shall not be entitled to any award, reduction in rental or
termination rights.
D. Lessee's rights under this Section 19 are subordinate to the
rights of the Lessor in that certain ground lease referred to in Section 21,
(Title and Possession) of this lease.
21. TITLE AND POSSESSION. Lessor covenants and warrants that
Lessor has good leasehold title to the demised premises and has good and
proper right to enter into this lease. Lessor covenants that there are no
liens upon its estate other than (a) Ground lease dated December 19, 1966,
(and later modified) by and between Valley Vista Land Corporation, as Lessor
and San Xxxx Obispo Shopping Center as Lessee; Lessee's interest was later
assigned to Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx; a Trust Deed in favor of New York Life
Insurance Company; Sub-leases with Shopping Center Tenants giving them
certain rights to parking and common areas; and (b) the effect of covenants,
conditions, restrictions, easements, rights and rights of way of record, if
any; and (c) the effect of any zoning laws of the City and County of San Xxxx
Obispo; and (d) general and special taxes not delinquent. The Lessor agrees
that the Lessee
-11-
upon paying the rent and performing the covenants and conditions of this
Lease may quietly have, hold and enjoy the demised premises during the term
hereof or any extension thereof.
22. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE. Tenant shall not voluntarily or by
operation of law assign, license, transfer, mortgage or otherwise encumber
all or any part of Lessee's interest in this Lease or in the demised
premises, and shall not sublet or license all or any part of the demised
premises, without the prior written consent of Lessor in each instance, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and any attempted assignment,
transfer, mortgage, encumbrance or subletting without such consent shall be
wholly void. No subletting or assignment, even with the consent of Lessor,
shall relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay the rent and to perform all of
the other obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance of
rent by Lessor from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by
Lessor of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any assignment,
subletting or other transfer. Consent to one assignment, subletting or other
transfer shall not be deemed to constitute consent to any subsequent
assignment, subletting or other transfer. No name change, merger, or the sale
or other transfer of a controlling percentage of the capital stock of Lessee,
or the sale of 51% or more of the value of the assets of Lessee shall be
deemed an assignment requiring the consent of Lessor.
23. MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION. Upon commencement of this Lease,
Lessee shall join and thereafter maintain, until the termination of this
Lease, membership in a non-profit businessmen's association composed of a
majority of the occupants of the Shopping Center. By-laws of the association
shall be originally adopted by a majority vote of the members of the
association and shall thereafter be subject to amendment as provided in said
by-laws. Each member of the association and the Lessor shall have one (1)
vote. Such membership shall include the obligation of Lessee to pay
assessments, as determined by said association, to cover the expense of all
advertising and other activities carried on by such association for the
mutual benefit of its members. In no event shall Lessee's contribution in any
calendar year be more than Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00).
24. RENEWAL. Lessee shall have the right to renew or extend the
within Lease for a period of ten (10) years following the expiration of the
original term hereof, at a rental of Fifty-five Thousand Dollars ($55,000.00)
per year for the first five (5) years, and a rental of Sixty Thousand Dollars
($60,000.00) for the second five (5) years, and otherwise under the same
-12-
terms and conditions as for the original term as set out herein, except for this
option. In the event Lessee exercises this option to renew or extend, written
notice thereof shall be given Lessor at least twelve (12) months prior to the
commencement of such renewal or extension period.
25. RENEWAL. Lessee shall have the right to renew or extend the
within lease for a period of ten (10) years following the expiration of the term
provided for in Section 24 hereof, at a rental of Sixty-five Thousand Dollars
($65,000.00) per year for the first five (5) years, and a rental of Seventy
Thousand Dollars ($70,000.00) per year for the last five (5) years, and
otherwise under the same terms and conditions as for the original term as set
out herein, except for this option. In the event Lessee exercises this option
to renew or extend, written notice thereof shall be given Lessor at least twelve
(12) months prior to the commencement of such renewal or extension period.
26. DEFAULTS BY LESSEE AND LESSOR'S REMEDIES.
A. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute a material default and breach of this lease by Lessee:
(i) Any failure by Lessee to pay the rental or make any other payment
required to be made by Lessee hereunder (where such failure continued for 10
days after written notice thereof by Lessor to Lessee.)
(ii) The abandonment or vacation of the premises by Lessee.
(iii) A failure by Lessee to observe and perform any other provisions
of this lease to be observed or performed by Lessee, where such failure
continues for 30 days after written notice thereof by Lessor to Lessee;
provided, however, that if the nature of such default is such that the same
cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period, Lessee shall not be deemed
to be in default if Lessee shall within such period commence such cure and
thereafter deligently prosecute the same to completion.
(iv) The making by Lessee of any general assignment for the benefit of
creditors; the filing by or against Lessee of a petition to have Lessee adjudged
a bankrupt or of a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law
relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Lessee,
the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); the appointment of a trustee or
receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at
the premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where possession is not
restored to Lessee within thirty (30) days;
-13-
or the attachment, execution to other judicial seizure of substantially all of
Lessee's assets located at the premises or of Lessee's interest in this lease,
where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days.
B. In the event of any such default by Lessee, then in addition to
any other remedies available to Lessor at law or in equity, Lessor shall have
the immediate option to terminate this lease and all rights of Lessee hereunder
by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that
Lessor shall elect to so terminate this lease then Lessor may recover from
Lessee.
(i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been
earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss Lessee proves could have been reasonably
avoided; plus
(iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of
such rental loss that Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all the
detriment proximately caused by Lessee's failure to perform his obligations
under this lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to
result therefrom and
(v) at Lessor's election, such other amounts in addition to or in
lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable
California law.
The term "rent" as used herein shall be deemed to be and to mean the
annual rental and all other sums required to be paid by Lessee pursuant to the
terms of this lease. All such sums, other than the annual rental, shall be
computed on the basis of the average monthly amount thereof accruing during the
immediately preceding 60 months period prior to default, except that if it
becomes necessary to compute such rental before such a 60-month period has
occurred, then on the basis of the average monthly amount accruing during such
shorter period.
As used in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, the "worth at the time of
award" is computed by allowing interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per
annum.
-14-
As used in subparagraph (iii) above, the "worth at the time of award" is
computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve
Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
C. In the event of any such default by Lessee, Lessor shall also
have the right, with or without terminating this lease, to re-enter the premises
and remove all persons and property from the premises; such property may be
removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the
account of Lessee.
D. In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the premises by
Lessee or in the event that Lessor shall elect to re-enter as provided in
paragraph C above or shall take possession of the premises pursuant to legal
proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then if Lessor does not
elect to terminate this lease as provided in paragraph B above, then Lessor may,
from time to time, without terminating this lease, either recover all rental as
it becomes due or relet the premises or any part thereof for such term or terms
and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Lessor
in its sole discretion may deem advisable with the right to make alterations and
repairs to the premises.
In the event that Lessor shall elect to so relet, then rentals
received by Lessor from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the payment
of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Lessee to Lessor; second,
to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost
of any alterations and repairs to the premises; fourth, to the payment of rent
due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Lessor and
applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable
hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such re-letting
during any month, which is applied by the payment of rent hereunder, be less
than the rent payable during that month by Lessee hereunder, then Lessee shall
pay such deficiency to Lessor. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid
monthly. Lessee shall also pay to Lessor, as soon as ascertained, any costs and
expenses incurred by Lessor in such reletting or in making such alterations and
repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
E. No re-entry or taking possession of the premises by Lessor
pursuant to subparagraphs C or D of this paragraph 26 shall be construed as an
election to terminate this lease unless a written notice of such intention be
given to Lessee or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court

of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination
by Lessor because of any default by Lessee, Lessor may at any time after such
reletting elect to terminate this lease for any such default.

days after written notice of default (or if more than thirty (30) days shall
be required because of the nature of the default, if Lessor shall fail to
proceed diligently to cure such default after notice), then in that event
Lessor shall be responsible to Lessee for any and all damages sustained by
Lessee as a result of Lessor's breach; further, Lessee shall have the right
to cure any such default at Lessor's expense including in such expenditure
all costs and attorneys' fees incurred to cure such default or breach of
lease. Lessee shall have no right to terminate this lease except as herein
otherwise specifically provided.

abandoned, at the option of the Lessor.
29. NOTICE OF NON-RESPONSIBILITY. Upon the commencement of any work or
alteration or repair in excess of Twenty-five Hundred Dollars, ($2,500.00) in
and about said leased premises at any time, Lessee agrees immediately to
notify Lessor thereof in writing, and Lessor shall be permitted to post on
and affix to said premises "Notice of Non-Responsibility" as provided in the
California Code of Civil Procedure, Section 1183.1.
30. ENTRY BY LESSOR. Lessee shall permit Lessor or his agents to enter

inspecting same, or for the purpose of displaying the premises to any
prospective purchaser, or for any other lawful purpose contemplated by the
provisions of this lease.
31. WAIVER. A waiver by Lessor of any breach of any term, covenant or
condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term,
covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other
term, covenant or condition herein contained. Acceptance of a rent
-16-
payment or of a series of rent payments on a date later than that called for
herein shall not be a waiver of the right to receive future rent payments
promptly on the due date thereof. Acceptance of a rent payment shall not
be a waiver of any then existing default.
32. TERMINATION AND QUITCLAIM. Upon the termination of this lease,
whether by the expiration of the term thereof or for any other reason as
provided in this lease, then the title to said demised premises shall revert
to the Lessor, and the Lessee shall, upon demand, execute and deliver a
Quitclaim Deed in favor of the Lessor, quitclaiming and releasing all his
right, title and interest in and to the said demised premises.
33. LESSEE'S RECEIVERSHIP. Either (a) the appointment of a receiver
to take possession of all or substantially all of the assets of Lessee, or
(b) a general assignment by Lessee for the benefit of creditors, or (c) any
action taken or suffered by Lessee under any insolvency or bankruptcy act
shall, in any such appointment, assignment or action continuous for a period
of thirty (30) days, constitute a breach of this lease by Lessee.
34. COSTS AND ATTORNEY'S FEES. In case any litigation is commenced
by or against the parties herein, or any party herein is made a party to
any litigation involving this lease or the demised premises, the losing party
shall pay to the prevailing party all costs and attorney's fees and other

and either party may by like notice at any time and from time to time
designate a different address to which notices shall be sent. Such notices,
demands or declarations shall be deemed sufficiently served or given for all
purposes hereunder at the time they shall be mailed by United States mail, as

36. SUBORDINATION ATTORNMENT. Upon request of the Lessor, and any
mortgageee or beneficiary of Lessor, Lessee will in writing subordinate
its rights hereunder to the lien of any first mortgage or first deed of
trust to any bank, insurance company or other lending institution, now or
hereafter in force against the land and building of which the demised
premises are a part, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made
upon the security thereof. Any mortgagee of any First Mortgage or beneficiary
of any First Deed of Trust at any time existing or encumbering the estate of
Lessor may at its option subordinate its Mortgage of Deed of Trust to this
lease.
In the event any proceedings are brought for foreclosure, or in the
event of the exercise of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed of
trust made by the Lessor covering the demised premises, the Lessee shall
attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such
purchaser as the Lessor under this lease.
The provisions of this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, and so
long as Lessee is not in default hereunder, this lease shall remain in full
force and effect for the full term hereof.
37. GENERAL COVENANTS. No remedy or election given by any provision in
this lease shall be deemed exclusive unless so indicated, but it shall
wherever possible be cumulative with all other remedies in law or equity as
otherwise herein specifically provided. The terms and agreements as contained
in this lease shall apply to, run in favor of and shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and also their respective, heirs,
executors, administrators, personal representatives and assigns and
successors in interest, subject at all times nevertheless to the provisions
of Article 22 of this lease relating to restrictions upon assignments or
subletting this lease or the demised premises. This lease shall be construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of California. The invalidity of any
portion of this lease shall not prevent the remainder from being carried into
effect. Whenever the context of any provision shall require it, the singular
number shall be held to include the plural number, and vice versa, and the
use of any gender shall include any other or all genders. Time is of the
essence of this lease. The paragraph and section headings in this lease

amendment to, this Lease shall be effective, but this Lease may be modified
or amended by written agreement signed by the Lessee and by the Lessor. This
lease binds, applies to and inures to the benefit of, as the case may
require, the respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns of Lessor and the Lessee.

DEFINITION OF FAIR MARKET RENTAL RATE
For the purposes of the Lease, the term "Fair Market Rental Rate" shall mean
the monthly amount per rentable square foot that landlords have accepted in
current transactions between non-affiliated parties from new, non-expansion,
non-renewal and non-equity tenants of comparable credit-worthiness, for
comparable space, a comparable use for a comparable period of time
("Comparable Transactions") in comparable buildings with comparable vacancy
factors. In any determination of Comparable Transactions appropriate
consideration shall be given to the annual rental rates per rentable square
foot, the standard of measurement by which the rentable square footage is
measured, the ratio of rentable square feet to usable square feet, the type
of escalation clause (e.g., whether increases in additional rent are
determined on a net or gross basis, and if gross, whether such increases are
determined according to a base year or a base dollar amount expense stop),
the extent of Tenant's liability under the Lease, abatement provisions
reflecting free rent and/or no rent during the period of construction or any
other period during the lease term, brokerage commissions, if any, which
would be payable by Landlord in similar transactions, length of the lease
term, size and location of premises being leased, building standard work
letter and/or tenant improvement allowances, if any, and other generally
applicable conditions of tenancy for such Comparable Transactions.
Landlord shall determine the Fair Market Rental Rate by using its good faith
judgment. Landlord shall provide written notice of such amount within thirty
(30) days (but in no event later that sixty (60) days) after Tenant provides
the notice to Landlord exercising Tenant's option rights which require a
calculation of the Fair Market Rental Rate. Tenant shall have fifteen (15)
days ("Tenant's Review Period") after receipt of Landlord's notice of the new
rental within which to accept such rental. In the event Tenant fails to
accept in writing such rental proposed by Landlord then such proposal shall
be deemed rejected, and Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon such
Fair Market Rental Rate, using their best good faith efforts. If Landlord and
Tenant fail to reach agreement within fifteen (15) days following Tenant's
Review Period ("Outside Agreement Date"), then each party shall place in a
separate sealed envelope their final proposal as to Fair Market Rental Rate
and such determination shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with
subsections (a) through (e) below.
In the event that Landlord fails to timely generate the initial written
notice of Landlord's opinion of the Fair Market Rental Rate which triggers
the negotiation period of this Addendum Provision, then Tenant may commence
such negotiations by providing the initial notice, in which event Landlord
shall have fifteen (15) days ("Landlord's Review Period") after receipt of
Tenant's notice of the new rental within which to accept such rental. In the
event Landlord fails to accept in writing such rental proposed by Tenant,
then such proposal shall be deemed rejected, and Landlord and Tenant shall
attempt in good faith to agree upon such Fair Market Rental Rate, using their
best good faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement
within fifteen (15) days following Landlord's Review Period (which shall be,
in such event, the "Outside Agreement Date" in lieu of the above definition
of such date), then each party shall place in a separate sealed envelope
their final proposal as to Fair Market Rental Rate and such determination
shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with subsections (a) through
(e) below.
a. Landlord and Tenant shall meet with each other within five (5)
business days of the Outside Agreement Date and exchange the sealed
envelopes and then open such envelopes in each other's presence, If
Landlord and Tenant do not mutually agree upon the Fair Market Rental
Rate within one (1) business day of the exchange and opening of
envelopes, then, within ten (10 business days of the exchange and
opening of envelopes Landlord and Tenant shall agree upon and jointly
appoint a single arbitrator who shall agree by profession be a real
estate lawyer or broker who shall have been active over the five (5)
year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of
commercial high-rise properties in the vicinity of the Building. Neither
Landlord nor Tenant shall consult with such broker or lawyer as to his
or her opinion as to Fair Market Rental Rate prior to the appointment.
The determination of the arbitrator shall be limited solely to the issue
of whether Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Fair Market Rental Rate for
the Premises is the closest to the actual Fair Market Rental Rate for
the Premises as determined by the arbitrator, taking into account the
requirements of this Addendum Provision. Such arbitrator may hold such
hearings and require such briefs as the arbitrator, in his or her sole
discretion, determines is necessary. In addition, Landlord or Tenant may
submit to the arbitrator with a copy to the other party within five (5)
business days after the appointment of the arbitrator any market data
and additional information that such party deems relevant to the
determination of Fair Market Rental Rate ("FMRR Data") and the other
party may submit a reply in writing within five (5) business days after
receipt of such FMRR Data.
b. The arbitrator shall, within thirty (30) days of his or her
appointment, reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use
Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Fair Market Rental Rate, and shall
notify Landlord and Tenant of such determination.
c. The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding upon Landlord and
Tenant, except as provided below.
d. If Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon and appoint an
arbitrator, then the appointment of the arbitrator shall be made by the
Presiding Judge of the San Xxxx Obispo Superior Court, or, if he or she
refuses to act, by any judge having jurisdiction over the parties.
e. The cost of arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant
equally.
In the event that Tenant objects to the Fair Market Rental
Rate as determined by the arbitration provision specified above, Tenant
may elect to terminate the Lease upon twelve (12) months' written notice
sent to Landlord at any time within ninety (90) days following the
establishment of the Fair Market Rental Rate as determined by such
arbitration. In the event Tenant elects to terminate the Lease, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable attorneys' fees and
reasonable costs associated with such arbitration. In the event that the
above-referenced twelve (12) month period overlaps beyond the expiration
of the Lease Term or any extension thereof, Tenant shall pay rental to
Landlord during the period of such overlap at the Fair Market Rental
Rate determined pursuant to such arbitration.
