The outline of the Premises is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and each floor or floors of the Premises has the number of rentable square feet as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary. The parties hereto agree that the lease of the Premises is upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth, and Tenant covenants as a material part of the consideration for this Lease to keep and perform each and all of such terms, covenants and conditions by it to be kept and performed and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such performance. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that the purpose of Exhibit A is to show the approximate location of the Premises in the "Building," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below, only, and such Exhibit is not meant to constitute an agreement, representation or warranty as to the construction of the Premises, the precise area thereof or the specific location of the "Common Areas," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.3, below, or the elements thereof or of the accessways to the Premises or the "Project," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease and in the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Tenant Work Letter"), Tenant shall accept the Premises in its presently existing "as-is" condition and Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Premises. Xxxxxx also acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Premises, the Building or the Project or with respect to the suitability of any of the foregoing for the conduct of Xxxxxx's business, except as specifically set forth in this Lease and the Tenant Work Letter. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Building were at such time in satisfactory and sanitary order, condition and repair. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, Xxxxxxxx agrees that the Building electrical, mechanical, elevator, heating, ventilation and air conditioning and plumbing systems located in or serving the Premises shall be in good working order as of the Lease Commencement Date. Except to the extent caused by the negligent acts or omissions of Tenant or any of its agents, contractors, employees, licensees or invitees or by any alterations or improvements performed by or on behalf of Tenant (other than the Tenant Improvements), if such systems are not in good working order as of the Lease Commencement Date and Tenant provides Landlord with notice of the same within three hundred sixty-five (365) days following the Lease Commencement Date, Landlord shall be responsible for repairing or restoring the same at Landlord’s sole cost. As of the date hereof, Xxxxxxxx has not received written notice from any governmental agencies, and Landlord has no knowledge, that the Premises is in violation of laws, including Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
1.1.2 The Building and The Project. The Premises are a part of the building set forth in Section 2.1 of the Summary (the "Building"). The term "Project," as used in this Lease, shall mean (i) the Building and the Common Areas, (ii) the land (which is improved with landscaping, parking facilities and other improvements) upon which the Building and the Common Areas are located, (iii) those certain other office buildings located in the vicinity of the Building and known as 0 Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx and 0 Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, respectively, and the land upon

which such office buildings are located, and (iv) at Landlord's discretion, any additional real property, areas, land, buildings or other improvements added thereto outside of the Project.
1.1.3 Common Areas. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use in common with other tenants in the Project, and subject to the rules and regulations referred to in Article 5 of this Lease, those portions of the Project which are provided, from time to time, for use in common by Landlord, Tenant and any other tenants of the Project (such areas, together with such other portions of the Project designated by Landlord, in its discretion, including certain areas designated for the exclusive use of certain tenants, or to be shared by Landlord and certain tenants, are collectively referred to herein as the "Common Areas"). The Common Areas shall consist of the "Project Common Areas" and the "Building Common Areas." The term "Project Common Areas," as used in this Lease, shall mean the portion of the Project designated as such by Landlord. The term "Building Common Areas," as used in this Lease, shall mean the portions of the Common Areas located within the Building designated as such by Landlord. The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the reasonable discretion of Landlord in a manner consistent with first class office buildings of similar class, size, age and quality as the Building located in the vicinity of the Building (provided that the foregoing shall not, however, require Landlord to upgrade any existing building systems (e.g. HVAC, elevators, fire/life safety) to keep pace with the latest technology for new developments or to provide any new or additional services) and the use thereof shall be subject to such rules, regulations and restrictions as Landlord may make from time to time. Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas; provided that Landlord’s exercise of the foregoing rights shall not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises for the Permitted Use or materially interfere with Xxxxxx’s access to the Premises.
1.2 Rentable Square Feet of Premises and Building. For purposes of this Lease, "rentable square feet" in the Premises and the Building, as the case may be, shall be calculated pursuant to Landlord's then current method for measuring rentable square footage. Landlord and Tenant hereby stipulate and agree that the rentable area of the Premises is as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to remeasure the Premises within thirty (30) days after the Lease Commencement Date. If such remeasurement by Tenant results in a different rentable square feet of the Premises than the rentable square feet specified herein: (i) all variables under this Lease that are dependent upon such measurement (including Base Rent and Tenant’s Share) shall be proportionately adjusted retroactive to the Lease Commencement Date, and (ii) within ten (10) business days after such new determination, Landlord and Tenant shall confirm the same in writing by entering into a mutually acceptable amendment of this Lease modifying the rentable square feet of the Premises, Base Rent, Tenant’s Share, and any other matters set forth in this Lease affected by such change in the rentable square feet of the Premises; provided, however, that Base Rent shall not increase as a result of such remeasurement. In no event shall Landlord have the right to remeasure the Premises during the Term or any subsequent renewal period thereof.
1.3 Right of First Offer. Landlord hereby grants to the originally named Tenant or any Permitted Transferee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer ("Original Tenant") an ongoing right of first offer with respect to the entire fifth (5th) floor of the Building containing approximately 18,026 rentable square feet (the "First Offer Space"). Landlord and Xxxxxx acknowledge that as of the date of this Lease, the First Offer Space is currently vacant and is not encumbered by any
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |

SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
rights of other tenants or occupants. If Tenant, following its receipt of a "First Offer Notice," as that term is defined in Section 1.3.1 of this Lease, below, fails to exercise its right to lease all or any portion of the First Offer Space, then Landlord may lease the First Offer Space to any party on the terms set forth in the First Offer Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.3, if Tenant was entitled to exercise its right of first offer pursuant to this Section 1.3, but did not accept Landlord’s offer set forth in Landlord’s First Offer Notice, and Landlord proposes to lease the First Offer Space to a prospective tenant on material terms that are substantially more favorable to the tenant than those set forth in the First Offer Notice, then the terms of this Section 1.3 shall apply again as if Landlord had not provided the First Offer Notice to Tenant; provided, however, Xxxxxx's Exercise Period (as defined in Section 1.3.2 below) with respect to such new First Offer Notice shall be amended to be a period of five (5) days. For purposes hereof, the material terms offered to another party (the “Proposed Terms”) shall not be deemed to be substantially more favorable than those set forth in an First Offer Notice unless the annualized net present value of the rent for the First Offer Space as provided under the Proposed Terms is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the annualized net present value of the rent for the First Offer Space as provided under the First Offer Notice, as reasonably determined in good faith by Landlord using a discount rate selected in good faith by Landlord and taking into account all proposed material terms relating to the First Offer Space, including the length of the term, the net rent, any base year, any tax or expense escalation or other financial escalation, and any allowances or other financial concessions, but excluding any right to extend the term or any right to expand the leased premises (whether in the form of an expansion option, a right of first offer or refusal, or any similar right). Tenant's right of first offer shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 1.3.
1.3.1 Procedure for Offer. Landlord shall notify Tenant (a "First Offer Notice") from time to time when the First Offer Space (or any portion thereof) becomes "Available," as that term is defined hereinbelow. Pursuant to such First Offer Notice, Landlord shall offer to lease to Tenant the then available First Offer Space. A First Offer Notice shall describe the space so offered to Tenant and shall set forth the "First Offer Rent," as that term is defined in Section 1.3.3, below, and the other economic terms upon which Landlord is willing to lease such space to Tenant. The rentable square footage of the space so offered to Tenant shall be as set forth in the First Offer Notice. For purposes of this Section 1.3, the First Offer Space shall be deemed “Available”: (i) as of the date of this Lease; and (ii) if, following Tenant’s failure to exercise its right to lease all or any portion of the First Offer Space and Landlord’s first leasing of the First Offer Space to a third party, Landlord determines that the existing tenant of the First Offer Space will not extend or renew the term of its lease, or enter into a new lease for the First Offer Space and Landlord intends to offer the First offer Space for lease to the public.
1.3.2 Procedure for Acceptance. If Tenant wishes to exercise Xxxxxx's right of first offer with respect to the space described in a First Offer Notice, then within fifteen (15) business days of delivery of such First Offer Notice to Tenant (“Tenant’s Exercise Period”), Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord of Tenant's intention to exercise its right of first offer with respect to the First Offer Space described in such First Offer Notice on the terms contained therein. If Tenant does not so notify Landlord within the fifteen (15) business day period, then, subject to the terms of Section 1.3.1 above, Landlord shall be free to lease the space described in such First Offer Notice to anyone to whom Landlord desires on any terms Landlord desires. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant must elect to exercise its right of first offer, if at
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-6- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
all, with respect to the First Offer Space offered by Landlord to Tenant at any particular time, and Tenant may not elect to lease only a portion thereof. If Tenant does not exercise its right of first offer with respect to the First Offer Space described in a First Offer Notice or if Tenant fails to respond to a First Offer Notice within fifteen (15) business days of delivery thereof, then Xxxxxx's right of first offer as set forth in this Section 1.3 shall not apply for twelve (12) months thereafter to the extent of the space covered by the First Offer Notice and, subject to the terms of Section 1.3.1 above, Landlord shall be free to lease such space and/or otherwise grant options or rights to such space on any terms and conditions whatsoever free and clear of the First Offer Right.
1.3.3 First Offer Space Rent. The annual "Rent," as that term is defined in Section 4.1 of this Lease, payable by Tenant for the First Offer Space (the "First Offer Rent") shall be equal to the "Fair Rental Value," as that term is defined below, for the First Offer Space, pursuant to transactions consummated within the nine (9)-month period preceding the "First Offer Commencement Date," as that term is defined in Section 1.3.5 of this Lease. The new "Base Year," as that term is defined in Section 4.2.1, below, with respect to the First Offer Space only shall be the calendar year in which the First Offer Commencement Date occurs (unless the First Offer Commencement Date occurs in the last quarter of a calendar year, in which event the Base Year shall be the following year). The Fair Rental Value shall take into account (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; (b) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable space, and taking into account the value, if any, of the existing improvements in the subject space, such value to be based upon the age, condition, design, quality of finishes and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same can be utilized by a general office user other than Tenant; and (c) other reasonable monetary concessions being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space. The "Fair Rental Value," as used in this Lease, shall be equal to the annual rent per rentable square foot (including additional rent and considering any "base year" or "expense stop" applicable thereto at which tenants, are leasing non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity space which is not significantly greater or smaller in size than the subject space for a comparable lease term, in an arm's length transaction, which comparable space is located in comparable buildings in Redwood City, California.
1.3.4 Construction In First Offer Space. Tenant shall accept the First Offer Space in its then existing "as is" condition, except as set forth in the First Offer Notice. The construction of improvements in the First Offer Space shall comply with the terms of Article 8 of this Lease.
1.3.5 Amendment to Lease. If Tenant timely exercises Tenant's right to lease First Offer Space as set forth herein, then, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment (the "First Offer Amendment") adding such First Offer Space to the Premises upon the terms and conditions as set forth in the First Offer Notice therefor and this Section 1.3. Tenant shall commence payment of Rent for such First Offer Space, and the term of such First Offer Space shall commence on the commencement date set forth in the First Offer Notice (the "First Offer Commencement Date") and terminate on the date set forth in the First Offer Notice therefor.
1.3.6 Termination of Right of First Offer. The rights contained in this Section 1.3 shall be personal to Original Tenant and any Permitted Transferee pursuant to a Permitted
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-7- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
Transfer, and may only be exercised by Original Tenant and any Permitted Transferee (and not by any other assignee, sublessee or other "Transferee," as that term is defined in Section 14.1 of this Lease, of Tenant's interest in this Lease) if Original Tenant or Permitted Transferee leases the entire Premises. Tenant shall not have the right to lease First Offer Space, as provided in this Section 1.3, if, as of the date of the attempted exercise of any right of first offer by Xxxxxx, as of the date Landlord and Tenant execute the First Offer Amendment, or as of the scheduled date of delivery of such First Offer Space to Tenant, Tenant is in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice or cure period or Tenant has previously been in monetary default or material non-monetary default beyond any applicable notice and cure period under this Lease more than twice (the "Option Conditions"); provided Landlord shall have the right to waive the Option Conditions in Landlord's sole discretion.
ARTICLE 2
LEASE TERM
2.1 Lease Term. The terms and provisions of this Lease shall be effective as of the date of this Lease. The term of this Lease (the "Lease Term") shall be as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Summary, shall commence on the date set forth in Section 3.2 of the Summary (the "Lease Commencement Date"), and shall terminate on the date set forth in Section 3.3 of the Summary (the "Lease Expiration Date") unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Lease Year" shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term. At any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may deliver to Tenant a notice in the form as set forth in Exhibit C, attached hereto, as a confirmation only of the information set forth therein, which Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord within ten (10) business days of receipt thereof. Provided the information is accurate, Xxxxxx's failure to execute and return such notice to Landlord within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant that the information set forth in such notice is as specified therein. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Lease Commencement Date has not occurred by (i) September 15, 2024, then Tenant shall receive an additional day for day abatement of Base Rent for each day thereafter until the Lease Commencement Date occurs or (ii) November 15, 2024, then Tenant may terminate this Lease upon notice to Landlord, and upon such termination, Landlord shall return any Security Deposit and prepaid Rent to Tenant. The parties acknowledge and agree that the foregoing dates are subject to delays caused by Tenant and Force Majeure.
2.2 Early Possession. Subject to the terms of this Section 2.2 and provided that this Lease has been fully executed by all parties and Tenant has delivered all prepaid rental, the Security Deposit, and insurance certificates required hereunder, Landlord grants Tenant the right to enter the Premises, at Tenant’s sole risk, solely for the purpose of installing telecommunications and data cabling, equipment, furnishings and other personalty, thirty (30) days prior to the Lease Commencement Date, as reasonably determined by Landlord. Such possession prior to the Lease Commencement Date shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not be required to pay Rent with respect to the period of time prior to the Lease Commencement Date during which Tenant occupies the Premises solely for such purposes. However, Tenant shall be liable for any special services requested by and provided to Tenant during such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Xxxxxx takes possession of the Premises before the Lease Commencement Date for business purposes, such possession shall be subject to
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-8- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
the terms and conditions of this Lease and Tenant shall pay Base Rent and any other charges payable hereunder to Landlord for each day of possession before the Lease Commencement Date. Said early possession shall not advance the Lease Expiration Date. Landlord may temporarily withdraw such permission to enter the Premises prior to the Lease Commencement Date at any time that Landlord reasonably determines that such entry by Xxxxxx is causing a dangerous situation for Landlord, Tenant or their respective contractors or employees, or if Landlord reasonably determines that such entry by Tenant is hampering or otherwise preventing Landlord from proceeding with the completion of the Tenant Improvements at the earliest possible date.
ARTICLE 3
BASE RENT
3.1 Base Rent. Tenant shall pay, without prior notice or demand, to Landlord or Landlord's agent at the management office of the Project, or, at Landlord's option, at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, by a check for currency or, at Tenant’s option, ACH, which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for private or public debts in the United States of America, base rent ("Base Rent") as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary, payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary in advance on or before the first (1st) day of each and every calendar month during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever. The Base Rent for the first full month of the Lease Term which occurs after the expiration of any free rent period shall be paid at the time of Tenant's execution of this Lease. If any Rent payment date (including the Lease Commencement Date) falls on a day of the month other than the first (1st) day of such month or if any payment of Rent is for a period which is shorter than one (1) month, the Rent for any fractional month shall accrue on a daily basis for the period from the date such payment is due to the end of such calendar month or to the end of the Lease Term at a rate per day which is equal to 1/365 of the applicable annual Rent. All other payments or adjustments required to be made under the terms of this Lease that require proration on a time basis shall be prorated on the same basis.
3.2 Abated Base Rent. Provided that Tenant is not then in monetary or non-monetary material default of this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, then during the initial nine (9) full calendar months of the initial Term (the "Rent Abatement Period"), Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Base Rent otherwise attributable to the Premises during such Rent Abatement Period (the "Rent Abatement"). Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the aggregate amount of the Rent Abatement equals $516,600.00. Xxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing Rent Abatement has been granted to Tenant as additional consideration for entering into this Lease, and for agreeing to pay the rental and performing the terms and conditions otherwise required under this Lease. If Tenant shall be in monetary or non-monetary material default under this Lease and shall fail to cure such default within the notice and cure period, if any, permitted for cure pursuant to terms and conditions of the Lease, then the dollar amount of the unapplied portion of the Rent Abatement as of the date of such default shall be converted to a credit to be applied to the Base Rent applicable at the end of the Lease Term and Tenant shall immediately be obligated to begin paying Base Rent for the Premises in full.

Such payments by Xxxxxx, together with any and all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Additional Rent", and the Base Rent and the Additional Rent are herein collectively referred to as "Rent." All amounts due under this Article 4 as Additional Rent shall be payable for the same periods and in the same manner as the Base Rent. Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant which survive the expiration of the Lease Term, the obligations of Tenant to pay the Additional Rent and Landlord’s obligation to refund any overpayment of such Additional Rent to Tenant as provided for in this Article 4 shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term.

4.2.1 "Base Year" shall mean the period set forth in Section 5 of the Summary.
4.2.2 "Direct Expenses" shall mean "Operating Expenses" and "Tax Expenses."

4.2.4 "Operating Expenses" shall mean all expenses, costs and amounts of every kind and nature which Landlord pays or accrues during any Expense Year because of or in connection with the ownership, management, maintenance, security, repair, replacement, restoration or operation of the Project, or any portion thereof.

(xviii) costs incurred to comply with laws relating to the removal of hazardous material (as defined under Applicable Law) which was in existence in the Building or on the Project prior to the Lease Commencement Date, and was of such a nature that a federal, State or municipal governmental authority, if it had then had knowledge of the presence of such hazardous material, in the state, and under the conditions that it then existed in the Building or on the Project, would have then required the removal of such hazardous material or other remedial or containment action with respect thereto; and costs incurred to remove, remedy, contain, or treat hazardous material, which hazardous material is brought into the Building or onto the Project after the date hereof by Landlord or any other tenant of the Project and is of such a nature, at that time, that a federal, State or municipal governmental authority, if it had then had knowledge of the presence of such hazardous material, in the state, and under the conditions, that it then exists in the Building or on the Project, would have then required the removal of such hazardous material or other remedial or containment action with respect thereto;

If Landlord is not furnishing any particular work or service (the cost of which, if performed by Landlord, would be included in Direct Expenses) to a tenant who has undertaken to perform such work or service in lieu of the performance thereof by Landlord, Direct Expenses shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the additional Direct Expenses which would reasonably have been incurred during such period by Landlord if it had at its own expense furnished such work or service to such tenant. If the Project is not at least one hundred percent (100%) occupied during all or a portion of the Base Year or any Expense Year, Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment to the components of variable Direct Expenses for such year to determine the amount of variable Direct Expenses that would have been incurred had the Project been one hundred percent (100%) occupied; and the amount so determined shall be deemed to have been the amount of variable Direct Expenses for such year. Direct Expenses for the Base Year shall not include market-wide cost increases due to extraordinary circumstances, including, but not limited to, Force Majeure, boycotts, strikes, conservation surcharges, embargoes or shortages, or amortized costs relating to Permitted Capital Expenditures (“Increases”); provided, however, to the extent that any particular Increase continues beyond the Base Year, Operating Expenses will not include such Increase in such subsequent year(s) if it has not be included in Operating Expenses for the Base Year. In no event shall the components of Direct Expenses for any Expense Year related to Taxes, Project insurance, security or utility costs be less than the components of Direct Expenses related to Taxes, Project insurance, security or utility costs, respectively, in the Base Year.
If during any Expense Year after the Base Year a line item category (including, without limitation, any type of insurance) is included in Operating Expenses that was not included in the
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-14- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
Base Year (a “New Line Item”), Operating Expenses for the Base Year shall be increased by an amount that would have been payable for such New Line Item in the Base Year had such New Line Item been included in the Base Year, as reasonably determined by Landlord (and, in the event that the New Line Item is initially incurred for only a partial calendar year, the cost of such New Line Item shall be grossed up to represent a full calendar year for both the Base Year and the calendar year in which the New Line Item first is incurred) and, following the expiration of the calendar year during which the New Line Item initially occurs, Tenant shall be liable for Tenant’s Share of increases in Operating Expenses over the adjusted amount of the Base Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Operating Expenses for any calendar year following the Base Year but preceding the calendar year in which the New Line Item occurs be retroactively adjusted as a result of such increase in the Operating Expenses for the Base Year, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to a credit as a result of such increase.
4.2.5 Taxes.
4.2.5.1 "Tax Expenses" shall mean all federal, state, county, or local governmental or municipal taxes, fees, charges or other impositions of every kind and nature, whether general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, (including, without limitation, real estate taxes, real estate excise taxes, general and special assessments, transit taxes, leasehold taxes or taxes based upon the receipt of rent, including gross receipts or sales taxes applicable to the receipt of rent, unless required to be paid by Tenant, personal property taxes imposed upon the fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems and equipment, appurtenances, furniture and other personal property used in connection with the Project, or any portion thereof), which shall be paid or accrued during any Expense Year (without regard to any different fiscal year used by such governmental or municipal authority) because of or in connection with the ownership, leasing and operation of the Project, or any portion thereof.
4.2.5.2 Tax Expenses shall include, without limitation: (i) Any tax on the rent, right to rent or other income from the Project, or any portion thereof, or as against the business of leasing the Project, or any portion thereof; (ii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in addition to, or in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real property tax, it being acknowledged by Tenant and Landlord that Proposition 13 was adopted by the voters of the State of California in the June 1978 election ("Proposition 13") and that assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such services as fire protection, street, sidewalk and road maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental services formerly provided without charge to property owners or occupants, and, in further recognition of the decrease in the level and quality of governmental services and amenities as a result of Proposition 13, Tax Expenses shall also include any governmental or private assessments or the Project's contribution towards a governmental or private cost-sharing agreement for the purpose of augmenting or improving the quality of services and amenities normally provided by governmental agencies; (iii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy, or charge allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or the Rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any business or gross income tax or excise tax with respect to the receipt of such rent, or upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operating, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof; and (iv) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge, upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or transferring an interest or an

estate in the Premises or the improvements thereon. Any assessments which can be paid by Landlord in installments, shall be paid by Landlord in the maximum number of installments permitted by law and shall be included as Tax Expenses in the year in which the installment is actually paid.
4.2.5.3 If Tax Expenses for any period during the Lease Term or any extension thereof are increased after payment thereof for any reason, including, without limitation, error or reassessment by applicable governmental or municipal authorities, subject to the terms of the last sentence of Section 4.2.5.1, above, Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand Tenant's Share of any such increased Tax Expenses included by Landlord as Building Tax Expenses pursuant to the terms of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.2.5 (except as set forth in Section 4.2.8.1, above), there shall be excluded from Tax Expenses (i) all excess profits taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes, federal and state income taxes, and other taxes to the extent applicable to Landlord's general or net income (as opposed to rents, receipts or income attributable to operations at the Project), (ii) any items included as Operating Expenses, (iii) any items paid by Tenant under Section 4.5 of this Lease, and (iv) tax penalties incurred as a result of Xxxxxxxx’s failure to make payments and/or to file any tax or informational returns when due. If the property tax assessment for the Project (or any portion thereof) (or Tax Expenses) for the Base Year does not reflect an assessment (or Tax Expenses) for a 100% leased, completed and occupied project, Tax Expenses shall be adjusted, on a basis consistent with sound real estate accounting principles, to reflect an assessment for (and Tax Expenses for) a 100% leased, completed and occupied Project.
4.2.5.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, the amount of Tax Expenses for the Base Year and any Expense Year shall be calculated without taking into account any decreases in real estate taxes obtained in connection with Proposition 8, and, therefore, the Tax Expenses in the Base Year and/or an Expense Year may be greater than those actually incurred by Landlord, but shall, nonetheless, be the Tax Expenses due under this Lease; provided that (i) any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in securing any Proposition 8 reduction shall not be deducted from Tax Expenses nor included in Direct Expenses for purposes of this Lease, and (ii) tax refunds under Proposition 8 shall not be deducted from Tax Expenses nor refunded to Tenant, but rather shall be the sole property of Landlord. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the preceding sentence is not intended to in any way affect (A) the inclusion in Tax Expenses of the statutory two percent (2.0%) annual increase in Tax Expenses (as such statutory increase may be modified by subsequent legislation), or (B) the inclusion or exclusion of Tax Expenses pursuant to the terms of Proposition 13. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, only Landlord may institute proceedings to reduce Tax Expenses and the filing of any such proceeding by Tenant without Landlord's consent shall constitute an event of default by Tenant under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be obligated to file any application or institute any proceeding seeking a reduction in Tax Expenses. The amount of Tax Expenses for the Base Year attributable to the valuation of the Project, inclusive of tenant improvements, shall be known as the "Base Taxes".
4.2.6 "Tenant's Share" shall mean the percentage set forth in Section 6 of the Summary.

4.3 Allocation of Direct Expenses.
4.3.1 Method of Allocation. The parties acknowledge that the Building is a part of a multi-building project and that the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Project (i.e., the Direct Expenses) should be shared between the tenants of the Building and the tenants of the other buildings in the Project. Accordingly, as set forth in Section 4.2 above, Direct Expenses (which consists of Operating Expenses and Tax Expenses) are determined annually for the Project as a whole, and a portion of the Direct Expenses, which portion shall be reasonably determined by Landlord on an equitable basis, shall be allocated to the tenants of the Building (as opposed to the tenants of any other buildings in the Project) and such portion shall be the Building Direct Expenses for purposes of this Lease. Such portion of Direct Expenses allocated to the tenants of the Building shall include all Direct Expenses attributable solely to the Building and an equitable portion of the Direct Expenses attributable to the Project as a whole.
4.3.2 Cost Pools. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to equitably allocate some or all of the Direct Expenses for the Project among different portions or occupants of the Project (the "Cost Pools"), in Landlord's reasonable discretion. Such Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, the office space tenants of a building of the Project or of the Project, and the retail space tenants of a building of the Project or of the Project. The Direct Expenses within each such Cost Pool shall be allocated and charged to the tenants within such Cost Pool in an equitable manner.
4.4 Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent. If for any Expense Year ending or commencing within the Lease Term, Xxxxxx's Share of Direct Expenses for such Expense Year exceeds Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses applicable to the Base Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Section 4.4.1, below, and as Additional Rent, an amount equal to the excess (the "Excess").
4.4.1 Statement of Actual Direct Expenses and Payment by Tenant. Landlord shall give to Tenant within one hundred twenty (120) days following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the "Statement") which shall state the Direct Expenses incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount of the Excess. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year commencing or ending during the Lease Term, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall pay, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Statement, the full amount of the Excess for such Expense Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as "Estimated Excess," as that term is defined in Section 4.4.2, below, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Excess than the actual Excess, Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of Tenant's overpayment against Rent next due under this Lease. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord or Tenant from enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, if an Excess if present, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after invoice and reasonable backup documentation, pay to Landlord such amount, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Excess than the actual Excess, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days, deliver a check payable to Tenant in the amount of the overpayment. The provisions of this Section 4.4.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. However, if Landlord fails to furnish Tenant a Statement of the actual Operating Expenses for a given calendar
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-17- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
year within eighteen (18) months following the end of each calendar year for which the Operating Expenses are being charged, Landlord shall be deemed to have waived any rights to recover any underpayment of Operating Expenses from Tenant (except to the extent such underpayment is attributable to a default by Tenant in its obligation to make estimated payments of Operating Expenses and Additional Rent); provided that such eighteen (18) month time limit shall not apply to Tax Expenses which were not billed by the relevant taxing authority within such eighteen (18) -month period. Further, in no event shall the foregoing provision describing the time period during which Landlord is to deliver the Statement of actual costs in any manner limit or otherwise prejudice Landlord’s right to modify such Statement of actual costs after such time period if new, additional or different information relating to such statement of actual costs is discovered or otherwise determined.
4.4.2 Statement of Estimated Direct Expenses. In addition, Landlord shall give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the "Estimate Statement") which shall set forth Landlord's reasonable estimate (the "Estimate") of what the total amount of Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the estimated excess (the "Estimated Excess") as calculated by comparing the Direct Expenses for such Expense Year, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to the amount of Direct Expenses for the Base Year. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such Estimate Statement to Tenant on or before May 1 following the end of the Expense Year to which such Estimate Statement relates. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Excess under this Article 4, nor shall Landlord be prohibited from revising any Estimate Statement or Estimated Excess theretofore delivered to the extent necessary. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due (but not earlier than thirty (30) days after Xxxxxx’s receipt of the Estimate Statement), a fraction of the Estimated Excess for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4.4.2). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year, including the month of such payment, and twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished (which Landlord shall have the right to deliver to Tenant at any time), Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.
4.5 Taxes and Other Charges for Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible.
4.5.1 Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay ten (10) days before delinquency, taxes levied against Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property located in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or if the assessed value of Landlord's property is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such equipment, furniture, fixtures or any other personal property and if Landlord 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 proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment, as the case may be.
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |

SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
4.5.2 If the tenant improvements in the Premises installed during the Lease Term, whether installed and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which tenant improvements conforming to Landlord's "building standard" in other space in the Building are assessed, then the Tax Expenses levied against Landlord or the property 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 Section 4.5.1, above.
4.5.3 Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Landlord may charge Tenant directly, and Tenant shall pay prior to delinquency as Additional Rent (and not as a part of Direct Expenses) any (i) rent tax or sales tax, gross receipts tax, service tax, transfer tax or value added tax, or any other applicable tax on the rent or services herein or otherwise respecting this Lease, (ii) taxes assessed upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Project, including the Project parking facility and taxes or assessments due to any type of ballot measure, including an initiative adopted by the voters or local agency, or a state proposition approved by the voters; or (iii) taxes assessed upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
4.5.4 Landlord may charge Tenant the estimated amount of taxes and other charges for which Xxxxxx is directly responsible pursuant to this Section 4.5 on a monthly basis, provided that Landlord shall reconcile the amount actually paid by Tenant with the amount that Tenant should have paid, as part of the Statement following the end of each Expense Year.
4.6 Landlord's Books and Records. Upon Xxxxxx's written request (an "Audit Request") given not more than one hundred eighty (180) days after Xxxxxx's receipt of a Statement for a particular Expense Year, and provided that Tenant is not then in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with such reasonable supporting documentation in connection with said Direct Expenses. Landlord shall provide said information to Tenant within sixty (60) days after Xxxxxx's written request therefor. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of such information by Xxxxxx (the "Review Period"), if Tenant disputes the amount of Direct Expenses set forth in the Statement, an independent Certified Public Accountant (which accountant (A) is a Certified Public Accountant, (B) is a member of a nationally or regionally recognized accounting firm, and (C) is not working on a contingency fee basis), designated and paid for by Tenant, may, after reasonable notice to Landlord and at reasonable times, inspect Landlord's records with respect to the Statement at Landlord's offices, provided that Tenant is not then in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period and Tenant has paid all amounts not in dispute required to be paid under the applicable Estimate Statement and Statement, as the case may be. In connection with such inspection, Tenant and Tenant's agents must agree in advance to follow Landlord's reasonable rules and procedures regarding inspections of Landlord's records, and shall execute a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement regarding such inspection. Tenant's failure to dispute the amount of Direct Expenses set forth in any Statement within the Review Period shall be deemed to be Tenant's approval of such Statement and Tenant, thereafter, waives the right or ability to dispute the amounts set forth in such Statement. If after such inspection, Tenant still disputes such Additional Rent, a determination as to the proper amount shall be made, at Tenant's expense, by
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-19- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
an independent Certified Public Accountant (the "Accountant") selected by Landlord and subject to Tenant's reasonable approval; provided that if such determination by the Accountant proves that Direct Expenses were overstated by more than five percent (5%), then the cost of the Accountant and the cost of such determination shall be paid for by Landlord. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Xxxxxx's sole right to inspect Landlord's books and records and to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant shall be as set forth in this Section 4.6 and in no event shall Tenant have the right to inspect Landlord's books and records and/or contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant more than one (1) time for any Expense Year, and Tenant hereby waives any and all other rights pursuant to Applicable Law to inspect such books and records and/or to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant.

Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way damage the reputation of the Project or obstruct or unreasonably interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building, or injure or unreasonably annoy them or use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises.

ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS
8.1 Landlord's Consent to Alterations. Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises or any mechanical, plumbing or HVAC facilities or systems pertaining to the Premises (collectively, the "Alterations") without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by Landlord, provided it shall be deemed reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any Alteration which adversely affects the structural portions or the systems or equipment of the Building or is visible from the exterior of the Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make Alterations following ten (10) business days' notice to Landlord, but without Landlord's prior consent, to the extent that such Alterations satisfy all of the following criteria (a “Cosmetic Alteration”): (1) is of a cosmetic nature such as painting, hanging pictures and installing carpeting; or (2) costs less than $50,000.00 in the aggregate during any twelve (12) month period of the Term of this Lease, is not visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building, will not affect the systems or structure of the Building and does not require work to be performed inside the walls or above the ceiling of the Premises.
8.2 Manner of Construction. Landlord may impose, as a condition of its consent to any and all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that Tenant utilize for such purposes only contractors, subcontractors, materials, mechanics and materialmen selected by Tenant from a list provided and reasonably approved by Landlord, and, subject to Section 8.5 below, the requirement that upon Landlord's written request, Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, remove such Alterations upon the expiration or any early termination of the Lease Term. Tenant shall construct such Alterations and perform such repairs in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformance with any and all applicable federal, state, county or municipal laws, rules and regulations and pursuant to a valid building permit, issued by the city in which the Building is located (or other applicable governmental authority), all in conformance with Landlord's construction rules and regulations; provided, however, that prior to commencing to construct any Alteration, Tenant shall meet with Landlord to discuss Landlord's design parameters and code compliance issues. In the event Tenant performs any Alterations in the Premises which require or give rise to governmentally required changes to the "Base Building," as that term is defined below, then Landlord shall, at Tenant's expense, make such changes to the Base Building. The "Base Building" shall include the structural portions of the Building, and the public restrooms, elevators, exit stairwells and the systems and equipment located in the internal core of the Building on the floor or floors on which the Premises are located.

-24- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
work of any such Alterations, Tenant shall have the work performed in such manner so as not to obstruct access to the Project or any portion thereof, by any other tenant of the Project, and so as not to obstruct the business of Landlord or other tenants in the Project. Tenant shall not use (and upon notice from Landlord shall cease using) contractors, services, workmen, labor, materials or equipment that, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, would disturb labor harmony with the workforce or trades engaged in performing other work, labor or services in or about the Building or the Common Areas. In addition to Tenant's obligations under Article 9 of this Lease, upon completion of any Alterations, Xxxxxx agrees to cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of the County in which the Building is located in accordance with Section 8182 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, and Tenant shall deliver to the Project construction manager a reproducible copy of the "as built" drawings of the Alterations as well as all permits, approvals and other documents issued by any governmental agency in connection with the Alterations.
8.3 Payment for Improvements. If payment is made by Tenant directly to contractors, Tenant shall (i) comply with Landlord's requirements for final lien releases and waivers in connection with Tenant's payment for work to contractors, and (ii) sign Xxxxxxxx's standard contractor's rules and regulations. If Tenant orders any work directly from Landlord for which Landlord is not required to provide hereunder, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to (i) five percent (5%) of the hard cost of such work for any work costing $100,000.00 or less in the aggregate, and (ii) to the extent the cost of such work exceeds $100,000.00 in the aggregate, three percent (3%) of the hard cost of any such work, to compensate Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs and expenses arising from Landlord's involvement with such work. If Tenant does not order any work directly from Landlord, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with Xxxxxxxx's review of such work. This Section 8.3 shall not apply to the Tenant Improvements.
8.4 Construction Insurance. In addition to the requirements of Article 10 of this Lease, in the event that Tenant makes any Alterations, prior to the commencement of such Alterations, Tenant shall provide Landlord with evidence that Tenant or its contractor carries "Builder's All Risk"/Course of Construction insurance in an amount approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably require, it being understood and agreed that all of such Alterations shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to Article 10 of this Lease immediately upon completion thereof. In addition, Tenant's contractors and subcontractors shall be required to carry Commercial General Liability insurance in an amount reasonably approved by Landlord and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of Article 10 of this Lease. For all Alterations estimated to cost $150,000.00 or more (as reasonably determined by Landlord), Landlord may, in its discretion, require Tenant to obtain a performance and payment bond or some alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-obligee.
8.5 Landlord's Property. All Alterations, improvements, fixtures, equipment and/or appurtenances which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises, from time to time, shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and shall be and become the property of Landlord, except that Tenant may remove any Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment which Tenant can

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon request by Tenant at the time of Tenant's request for Xxxxxxxx's consent to any Alteration, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the applicable Alteration will be required to be removed pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.5 and if Landlord fails to so notify Tenant in writing that particular Alterations within the Premises are to remain in the Premises at the end of the Lease Term or any earlier termination of this Lease, then Tenant shall be obligated to remove the same and restore the Premises as provided herein prior to the end of the Lease Term or any earlier termination of this Lease; provided, further that, if Landlord fails to respond to the foregoing request by Xxxxxx, Tenant may send a second written request to Landlord, which request shall contain, in bold, capital letters, the following: “THIS NOTICE CONSTITUTES TENANT’S SECOND NOTICE OF ITS REQUEST FOR NOTIFICATION THAT THE APPLICABLE ALTERATION OR IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE REQUIRED TO BE REMOVED PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF SECTION 8.5 OF THE LEASE; LANDLORD’S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS SHALL BE DEEMED LANDLORD’S INDICATION THAT THE FOREGOING ALTERATIONS OR IMPROVEMENTS SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED TO BE REMOVED.” If Landlord fails to respond to such second notice within five (5) business days of receipt, it shall be deemed that Tenant shall not be required to remove the applicable Alteration or improvement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any alterations, additions or improvements that are existing in the Premises as of the date of this Lease or, other than voice and data wiring and cabling installed by or on behalf of Tenant (which Tenant shall be required to remove and restore unless Landlord, in its sole election, notifies Tenant that Tenant shall not be required to remove such voice and data wiring and cabling), Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any Alterations that comprise any standard office improvements such as gypsum board, partitions, ceiling grids and tiles, fluorescent lighting panels, Building standard doors and non-glued down carpeting. If Tenant fails to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal of any Alterations in the Premises and return the affected portion of the Premises to its prior condition, Landlord may do so and may charge the reasonable cost thereof to Tenant. Tenant hereby protects, defends, indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from any liability, cost, obligation, expense or claim of lien in any manner relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing of any such Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment in, on or about the Premises, which obligations of Tenant shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant has no obligation to remove or restore any of the Tenant Improvements.

Upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises, upon notice (the "Landlord Repair Notice") to Tenant from Landlord, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Xxxxxx's insurance required under clauses (ii) – (iii) of Section 10.3.2 of this Lease, and Landlord shall repair any injury or damage to the Alterations, improvements, Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Alterations, improvements, Original Improvements to their original condition; provided that if the cost of such repair by Landlord exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant's insurance carrier, as assigned by Tenant, the cost of such repairs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord prior to Landlord's commencement of repair of the damage. In the event that Landlord does not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice within sixty (60) days following the date the casualty becomes known to Landlord, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair any injury or damage to the Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Original Improvements to their original condition. Whether or not Landlord delivers a Landlord Repair Notice, prior to the commencement of construction, Tenant shall submit to Landlord, for Landlord's review and approval, all plans, specifications and working drawings relating thereto, and Landlord shall reasonably approve the contractors to perform such improvement work. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its visitors, or injury to Tenant's business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof; provided however, that if such fire or other casualty shall have damaged the Premises or Common Areas necessary to Tenant's occupancy, and the Premises are not occupied by Tenant as a result thereof, then during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy, the Rent shall be abated in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which is unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice, Xxxxxx's right to rent abatement pursuant to the preceding sentence shall terminate as of the date which is reasonably determined by Landlord to be the date Tenant should have completed repairs to the Premises assuming Tenant used reasonable due diligence in connection therewith. Landlord will as soon as reasonably possible deliver to Tenant an estimate of the time necessary to repair the damage such that the Premises may be used by an accessible to Tenant and the Building and Common Areas operable as a first-class office building; such notice will be based upon the review and opinions of Xxxxxxxx’s architect and contractor (“Landlord’s Completion Notice”).

11.2 Landlord's Option to Repair. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises, Building and/or Project, and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building or Project shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or cause, whether or not the Premises are affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) in Landlord's reasonable judgment, repairs cannot reasonably be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums) as set forth in Landlord’s Completion Notice, and Landlord terminates all other leases in the Building; (ii) the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground lease, as the case may be; (iii) the damage is not fully covered by Landlord's insurance policies excluding deductibles, and the uninsured cost to repair exceeds $150,000.00; (iv) Landlord decides to rebuild the Building or Common Areas so that they will be substantially different structurally or architecturally; (v) the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term and cannot be repaired within sixty (60) days from the date of damage; or (vi) any owner of any other portion of the Project, other than Landlord, does not intend to repair the damage to such portion of the Project; provided, however, that if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord's termination right as provided above, and either (i) the repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after being commenced, or (ii) the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term and cannot be repaired within sixty (60) days from the date of damage, Tenant may elect, no earlier than sixty (60) days after the date of the damage and not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than twenty (20) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Xxxxxx. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.2, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease under this Section 11.2 only if each of the following conditions are satisfied: (a) the damage to the Project by fire or other casualty was not caused by the gross negligence or intentional act of Tenant or its partners or subpartners and their respective officers, agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors; (b) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period; and (c) as a result of the damage, Tenant cannot reasonably conduct business from the Premises. Furthermore, if the repairs are not actually completed within sixty (60) days of the period of time set forth in Landlord’s Completion Notice, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord (the "Damage Termination Notice"), effective as of a date set forth in the Damage Termination Notice (the "Damage Termination Date"), which Damage Termination Date may be up to sixty (60) days after delivery of the Damage Termination Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant delivers a Damage Termination Notice to Landlord, then Landlord shall have the right to suspend the occurrence of the Damage Termination Date for a period ending thirty (30) days after the Damage Termination Date set forth in the Damage Termination Notice by delivering to Tenant, within five (5) business days of Landlord's receipt of the Damage Termination Notice, a certificate of Landlord's contractor responsible for the repair of the damage certifying that it is such contractor's good faith judgment that the repairs shall be substantially completed within thirty (30) days after the Damage Termination Date. If repairs shall be substantially completed prior to the
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-32- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
expiration of such thirty (30)-day period, then the Damage Termination Notice shall be of no force or effect, but if the repairs shall not be substantially completed within such thirty (30) day period, then this Lease shall terminate upon the expiration of such thirty (30) day period.
11.3 Waiver of Statutory Provisions. The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 11, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project, and any statute or regulation of the State of California, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project.
ARTICLE 12
NONWAIVER
No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived by either party hereto unless expressly waived in a writing signed thereby. The waiver by either party hereto of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained. 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 of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to receive the full amount due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment or any letter accompanying such check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the full amount due. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Lease Term or of Tenant's right of possession hereunder, or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Lease Term or affect any notice given Tenant prior to the receipt of such monies, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit, or after final judgment for possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment.
ARTICLE 13
CONDEMNATION
If the whole or any material part of the Premises, Building or Project shall be taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if any adjacent property or street shall be so taken or condemned, or reconfigured or vacated by such authority in such manner as to require the use, reconstruction or remodeling of any part of the Premises, Building or Project, or if Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument in lieu of such taking by eminent domain or condemnation, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |

SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
authority. If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable square feet of the Premises is taken, or if access to the Premises is substantially impaired, in each case for a period in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the authority. Tenant shall not because of such taking assert any claim against Landlord or the authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award or payment in connection therewith, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant's personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claims do not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Rent shall be proportionately abated. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 13, in the event of a temporary taking of all or any portion of the Premises for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less, then this Lease shall not terminate but the Base Rent and the Additional Rent shall be abated for the period of such taking in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises and otherwise in accordance with Section 19.5.2. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking.
ARTICLE 14
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
14.1 Transfers. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit any assignment, or other transfer of this Lease or any interest hereunder by operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or enter into any license or concession agreements or otherwise permit the occupancy or use of the Premises or any part thereof by any persons other than Tenant and its employees and contractors (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as "Transfers" and any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "Transferee"). If Tenant desires Landlord's consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the "Transfer Notice") shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the Transfer, which shall not be less than twenty (20) days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice, (ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the "Subject Space"), (iii) all of the terms of the proposed Transfer and the consideration therefor, including calculation of the "Transfer Premium", as that term is defined in Section 14.3 below, in connection with such Transfer, the name and address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing executed and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer, including all existing operative documents to be executed to evidence such Transfer or the agreements incidental or related to such Transfer, provided that Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to utilize Landlord's commercially reasonable standard consent to Transfer documents in connection with the documentation of the consent to Transfer, (iv) current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer,
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-34- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
partner or owner thereof, business credit and personal references and history of the proposed Transferee and any other information reasonably required by Landlord which will enable Landlord to reasonably determine the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of the proposed Transferee, nature of such Transferee's business and proposed use of the Subject Space, and (v) an executed estoppel certificate from Tenant in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E; provided if such estoppel certificate contains statements to the effect that Tenant claims any default, breach or failure to perform on the part of the Landlord under this Lease, such fact shall not serve to negate the effectiveness of the Transfer Notice. Except for any Permitted Transfer, any Transfer made without Landlord's prior written consent shall, at Landlord's option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at Landlord's option, constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. Whether or not Landlord consents to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable review and processing fees in an amount equal to $500.00, as well as any reasonable professional fees (including, without limitation, attorneys', accountants', architects', engineers' and consultants' fees) incurred by Landlord, not to exceed $2,000.00 for a Transfer in the ordinary course of business, within thirty (30) days after written request by Xxxxxxxx.
14.2 Landlord's Consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice and shall grant or withhold such consent within twenty (20) days after Tenant’s Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any Applicable Law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:
14.2.1 The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Project;
14.2.2 The Transferee intends to use the Subject Space for purposes which are not permitted under this Lease, including, without limitation, using all or any portion of the Subject Space for the operation of a Co-Working Facility;
14.2.3 The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof;
14.2.4 The Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities to be undertaken in connection with the Transfer on the date consent is requested;
14.2.5 The proposed Transfer would cause a violation of another lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease; or
14.2.6 Either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee, (i) leases space in the Project at the time of the request for consent unless Landlord is unable to provide the amount of comparable space required by such tenant, or (ii) is negotiating with Landlord or has negotiated with Landlord during the six (6) month period immediately preceding the date Landlord receives the Transfer Notice, to lease space in the Project unless Landlord is unable to provide the amount of comparable space in the Project when required by such Transferee.

Provided that Xxxxxx has delivered to Landlord the Transfer Notice, if Xxxxxxxx fails to respond to any request for consent within the twenty (20) day period set forth above, Tenant shall have the right to provide Landlord with a second request for consent, which second notice must specifically state in bold, capped font the following: “THIS IS TENANT’S SECOND NOTICE TO LANDLORD. XXXXXXXX FAILED TO RESPOND TO TENANT’S FIRST NOTICE REQUESTING CONSENT TO A PROPOSED TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF ARTICLE 17 OF THE LEASE. IF LANDLORD FAILS TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE IN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPOSED TRANSFER, LANDLORD SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE PROPOSED TRANSFER.” If Xxxxxx’s second notice strictly complies with the terms of this Section and Landlord’s failure to respond continues for five (5) business days after its receipt of the second request for consent, the Transfer for which Tenant has requested consent shall be deemed to have been approved by Landlord.
If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.2, Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord's consent, but not later than the expiration of said six (6) -month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the Transfer Notice (i) such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section 14.2, or (ii) which would cause the proposed Transfer to be materially different from the terms set forth in Tenant's original Transfer Notice, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this Article 14. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under Section 14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 14, their sole remedies shall be a suit for direct damages and a declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought without any consequential damages, and Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1995.310(b) of the California Civil Code, or any successor statute.
14.3 Transfer Premium. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which the parties hereby agree is reasonable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any "Transfer Premium," as that term is defined in this Section 14.3, received by Tenant from such Transferee. "Transfer Premium" shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by such Transferee in connection with the Transfer in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the Premises is transferred after first deducting the reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Tenant for (i) any brokerage commissions or legal fees in connection with the Transfer, (ii) any improvements to the Premises in connection with the Transfer, and (iii) any market monetary allowances reasonably provided to the Transferee in order to procure the particular Transfer (collectively, "Tenant Transfer Costs"). "Transfer Premium" shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for fixtures, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such Transfer.

14.4 [Intentionally Deleted]
14.5 Effect of Transfer. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the terms and conditions of this Lease shall in no way be deemed to have been waived or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, promptly after execution, an original executed copy of all documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (iv) Tenant shall furnish upon Xxxxxxxx's request a complete statement, certified by an independent Certified Public Accountant, or Tenant's chief financial officer, setting forth in detail the computation of any Transfer Premium Tenant has derived and shall derive from such Transfer, and (v) no Transfer relating to this Lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto, whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall relieve Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease from any liability under this Lease, including, without limitation, in connection with the Subject Space. Landlord or its authorized representatives shall have the right upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice at all reasonable times to audit the books, records and papers of Tenant relating to any Transfer, and shall have the right to make copies thereof. If the Transfer Premium respecting any Transfer shall be found understated, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after demand, pay the deficiency, and if understated by more than five percent (5%), Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable costs of such audit.
14.6 Additional Transfers. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Transfer" shall also include (i) if Tenant is a partnership or limited liability company, the withdrawal or change, voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the partners or members, or transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of partnership or membership interests, within a twelve (12)-month period, or the dissolution of the partnership or membership without immediate reconstitution thereof, and (ii) if Tenant is a closely held corporation (i.e., whose stock is not publicly held and not traded through an exchange or over the counter), (A) the dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant or (B) the sale or other transfer of an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting shares of Tenant (other than to immediate family members by reason of gift or death), within a twelve (12)-month period, or (C) the sale, mortgage, hypothecation or pledge of an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) or more of the value of the unencumbered assets of Tenant within a twelve (12)-month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the transfer of outstanding capital stock or other listed equity interests, or the purchase of outstanding capital stock or other listed equity interests, or the purchase of equity interests issued in an initial public offering of stock, by persons or parties other than “insiders” within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, through the “over-the-counter” market or any recognized national or international securities exchange shall not be included in determining whether control has been transferred.
14.7 Occurrence of Default. Any Transfer hereunder shall be subordinate and subject to the provisions of this Lease, and if this Lease shall be terminated during the term of any Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to: (i) treat such Transfer as cancelled and repossess the Subject Space by any lawful means, or (ii) require that such Transferee attorn to and recognize Landlord as its landlord under any such Transfer. If Tenant shall be in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Xxxxxx's agent and attorney-in-fact, to direct any Transferee to make all payments under or in connection with the Transfer directly to Landlord (which Landlord shall apply towards Tenant's obligations under this
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-37- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
Lease) until such default is cured. Such Transferee shall rely on any representation by Landlord that Tenant is in default hereunder, without any need for confirmation thereof by Xxxxxx. Upon any assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing all obligations and covenants of Tenant thereafter to be performed or observed under this Lease. No collection or acceptance of rent by Landlord from any Transferee shall be deemed a waiver of any provision of this Article 14 or the approval of any Transferee or a release of Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, whether theretofore or thereafter accruing. In no event shall Landlord's enforcement of any provision of this Lease against any Transferee be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to enforce any term of this Lease against Tenant or any other person. If Tenant's obligations hereunder have been guaranteed, Xxxxxxxx's consent to any Transfer shall not be effective unless the guarantor also consents to such Transfer.
14.8 Deemed Consent Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, (A) an assignment or subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to an affiliate of Tenant (an entity which is controlled by, controls, or is under common control with, Tenant as of the date of this Lease), (B) a sale of corporate shares of capital stock in Tenant in connection with an initial public offering of Tenant's stock on a nationally-recognized stock exchange, (C) a private offering of stock in Tenant for the primary purpose of raising additional capital, (D) an assignment of the Lease to an entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or a majority of the stock of Tenant, or (E) an assignment of the Lease to an entity which is the resulting entity of a merger or consolidation of Tenant during the Lease Term, shall not be deemed a Transfer requiring Landlord's consent under this Article 14 (any such assignee or sublessee described in items (A) through (E) hereinafter referred to as a "Permitted Transferee"), provided that (i) Tenant notifies Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of any such assignment or sublease and promptly supplies Landlord with any documents or information reasonably requested by Landlord regarding such transfer or transferee as set forth above (provided that, if prohibited by confidentiality or law in connection with a proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization, then Tenant shall give Landlord written notice within ten (10) days after the effective date of the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization), (ii) Tenant is not in default, beyond any applicable notice and cure period, and such assignment or sublease is not a subterfuge by Tenant to avoid its obligations under this Lease, (iii) such Permitted Transferee shall be of a character and reputation consistent with the quality of the Building, (iv) such Permitted Transferee shall have a tangible net worth (not including goodwill as an asset) computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (the “Net Worth”) at least equal to the Net Worth of Original Tenant on the date of this Lease, and (v) no assignment relating to this Lease, whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall relieve Tenant from any liability under this Lease, and, in the event of an assignment of Tenant's entire interest in this Lease, the liability of Tenant and such transferee shall be joint and several. An assignee of Tenant's entire interest in this Lease who qualifies as a Permitted Transferee may also be referred to herein as a "Permitted Transferee Assignee." "Control," as used in this Section 14.8, shall mean the ownership, directly or indirectly, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting interest in, any person or entity. If any Permitted Transferee of Tenant to which this Lease is assigned or the Premises sublet (in whole or in part) shall cease to be such Permitted Transferee, such cessation shall be considered an assignment or subletting requiring Landlord's consent.

ARTICLE 15
SURRENDER OF PREMISES; OWNERSHIP AND
REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES
15.1 Surrender of Premises. No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically acknowledged in writing by Landlord. The delivery of keys to the Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Xxxxxx, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or subtenancies affecting the Premises or terminate any or all such sublessees or subtenancies.
15.2 Removal of Tenant Property by Xxxxxx. Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Xxxxxx took possession and as thereafter improved by Xxxxxxxx and/or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear, casualty, and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, free-standing cabinet work, movable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal.
ARTICLE 16
HOLDING OVER
If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination thereof, without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such case Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate equal to the product of (a) the Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease, and (b) a percentage equal to 150%. Such tenancy shall be subject to every other applicable term, covenant and agreement contained herein. Nothing contained in this Article 16 shall be construed as consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Xxxxxx fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease within fifteen (15) days after Landlord notifies Tenant that Xxxxxxxx has entered into a lease or other agreement for
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |

all or any portion of the Premises, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.
ARTICLE 17
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Within ten (10) business days following a request in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit E, attached hereto (or such other commercially reasonable form as may be required by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Project, or any portion thereof), indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Xxxxxxxx's mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Any such certificate may be relied upon by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of all or any portion of the Project. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. At any time during the Lease Term, and upon Xxxxxxxx’s execution of Xxxxxx’s standard confidentiality agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G with respect to the following required information, Landlord may require Tenant to provide Landlord with a current financial statement and financial statements of the two (2) years prior to the current financial statement year. Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, if such is the normal practice of Tenant, shall be audited by an independent Certified Public Accountant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not request financial statements more than once in each consecutive one (1) year period during the Term unless (i) Tenant is in default beyond applicable notice and cure periods, or (ii) requested in connection with a proposed financing, sale or transfer of the Building by Landlord. Failure of Tenant to timely execute, acknowledge and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception.

This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future ground or underlying leases of the Building or Project and to the lien of any mortgage, trust deed or other encumbrances now or hereafter in force against the Building or Project or any part thereof, if any, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages, trust deeds or other encumbrances, or the lessors under such ground lease or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto (collectively, the “Superior Holders”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, concurrent with Xxxxxx’s execution and delivery to Landlord of this Lease, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement on the form attached here to as Exhibit F (the
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |

“SNDA”). Landlord shall cause the same to be fully executed and tender the same to Tenant no later than sixty (60) days from the date Tenant so tenders to Landlord this Lease and the SNDA executed by Xxxxxx, and if Landlord fails to do so within such sixty (60)- day period, and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after notice from Tenant, then Tenant may terminate this Lease upon notice to Landlord by providing written notice to Landlord within five (5) business days following such thirty (30)-day period. Upon at least thirty (30) days written request by Tenant, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, including, but not limited to payments of any fees imposed by the Superior Holders, to obtain a subordination non-disturbance and attornment agreement from any future Superior Holders in the standard and commercially reasonable form provided by such Superior Holders, which requires such Superior Holder to accept this Lease, and not to disturb Tenant’s possession, so long as an event of default beyond any applicable notice and cure period has not occurred, and be continuing. Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed in lieu thereof (or if any ground lease is terminated), to attorn, without any deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the lienholder or purchaser or any successors thereto upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof (or to the ground lessor), if so requested to do so by such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor as the lessor under this Lease, provided such lienholder or purchaser or ground lessor shall agree to accept this Lease and not disturb Tenant's occupancy, so long as Tenant timely pays the rent and observes and performs the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be observed and performed by Xxxxxx. Xxxxxxxx's interest herein may be assigned as security at any time to any lienholder. Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days of request by Landlord, execute such further instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any such mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases. Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale.
ARTICLE 19

19.1.2 Except where a specific time period is otherwise set forth for Tenant's performance in this Lease, in which event the failure to perform by Tenant within such time period shall be a default by Tenant under this Section 19.1.2, any failure by Xxxxxx to observe or perform
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-41- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
any other provision, covenant or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant where such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that if the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within a thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if it diligently commences such cure within such period and thereafter diligently proceeds to rectify and cure such default; or
19.1.3 Abandonment of the Premises by Xxxxxx; or
19.1.4 The failure by Xxxxxx to observe or perform according to the provisions of Articles 5, 14, 17 or 18 of this Lease where such failure continues for more than two (2) business days after notice from Landlord; or
19.1.5 Tenant’s failure to maintain or provide Landlord with evidence of insurance as required under Article 10 if such failure is not cured within five (5) days following delivery of written notice of such failure from Landlord.
The notice periods provided herein are in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice periods provided by law.
19.2 Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default beyond any applicable notice and cure period by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity (all of which remedies shall be distinct, separate and cumulative), the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever.
19.2.1 Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim or damages therefor; and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:
19.2.1.1 The worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
19.2.1.2 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 that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
19.2.1.3 The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
19.2.1.4 Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Xxxxxx's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, specifically including, but not limited to, amortized brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
-42- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
of remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant; and
19.2.1.5 At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by Applicable Law.
The term "rent" as used in this Section 19.2 shall be deemed to be and to mean all sums of every nature required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, whether to Landlord or to others. As used in Sections 19.2.1.1 and 19.2.1.2, above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by allowing interest at the rate set forth in Article 25 of this Lease, but in no case greater than the maximum amount of such interest permitted by law. As used in Section 19.2.1.3 above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be 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%).
19.2.2 Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after xxxxxx's breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if xxxxxx has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.
19.2.3 Landlord shall at all times have the rights and remedies (which shall be cumulative with each other and cumulative and in addition to those rights and remedies available under Sections 19.2.1 and 19.2.2, above, or any law or other provision of this Lease), without prior demand or notice except as required by Applicable Law, to seek any declaratory, injunctive or other equitable relief, and specifically enforce this Lease, or restrain or enjoin a violation or breach of any provision hereof.
19.3 Subleases of Tenant. Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Xxxxxx, as set forth in this Article 19, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Xxxxxxxx's sole discretion, succeed to Tenant's interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements. In the event of Xxxxxxxx's election to succeed to Xxxxxx's interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.
19.4 Efforts to Relet. No re-entry or repossession, repairs, maintenance, changes, alterations and additions, reletting, appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord's interests hereunder, or any other action or omission by Landlord shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease or Tenant's right to possession, or to accept a surrender of the Premises, nor shall same operate to release Tenant in whole or in part from any of Tenant's obligations hereunder, unless express written notice of such intention is sent by Landlord to Tenant. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives any right otherwise available under any law to redeem or reinstate this Lease.

19.5 Landlord Default.
19.5.1 General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Landlord shall not be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord pursuant to this Lease unless Landlord fails to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after the receipt of written notice from Tenant specifying in detail Xxxxxxxx's failure to perform; provided, however, if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion. Upon any such default by Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease to the contrary, exercise any of its rights provided at law or in equity.
19.5.2 Abatement of Rent. In the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, as a result of (i) any repair, maintenance or alteration performed by Landlord, or which Landlord failed to perform, after the Lease Commencement Date and required by this Lease, which substantially interferes with Tenant's use of the Premises, or (ii) any failure to provide services, utilities or access to the Premises as required by this Lease (either such set of circumstances as set forth in items (i) or (ii), above, to be known as an "Abatement Event"), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such Abatement Event, and if such Abatement Event continues for five (5) consecutive business days (or more than fifteen (15) business days in any consecutive twelve (12)-month period) after Landlord's receipt of any such notice (the "Eligibility Period") and either (A) Landlord does not diligently commence and pursue to completion the remedy of such Abatement Event or (B) Landlord receives proceeds from its rental interruption insurance which covers such Abatement Event, then the Base Rent, Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses, and Tenant's obligation to pay for parking (to the extent not utilized by Tenant) shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after expiration of the Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use for the normal conduct of Tenant's business, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable area of the Premises; provided, however, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, a portion of the Premises for a period of time in excess of the Eligibility Period and the remaining portion of the Premises is not sufficient to allow Tenant to effectively conduct its business therein, and if Tenant does not conduct its business from such remaining portion, then for such time after expiration of the Eligibility Period during which Tenant is so prevented from effectively conducting its business therein, the Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for the entire Premises and Tenant's obligation to pay for parking shall be abated for such time as Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises. If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of the Premises during such period, the Rent allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the proportion that the rentable area of such reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant from the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises. To the extent an Abatement Event is caused by an event covered by Articles 11 or 13 of this Lease, then Xxxxxx's right to xxxxx rent shall be governed by the terms of such Article 11 or 13, as applicable, and the Eligibility Period shall not be applicable thereto. Such right to xxxxx Base Rent and Xxxxxx's Share of Direct Expenses shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy for rent abatement at law or in equity for an Abatement Event. Except as provided in this Section 19.5.2 and Articles 11 and 13,
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |

nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Xxxxxx is excused from paying Rent due hereunder.
ARTICLE 20
COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT
Landlord covenants that Tenant, on paying the Rent, charges for services and other payments herein reserved and on keeping, observing and performing all the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept, observed and performed, shall, during the Lease Term, peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises subject to the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements hereof without interference by any persons lawfully claiming by or through Landlord. The foregoing covenant is in lieu of any other covenant express or implied.
ARTICLE 21
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Concurrent with Xxxxxx's execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a security deposit (the "Security Deposit") in the amount set forth in Section 8 of the Summary, as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this Lease. If Tenant defaults beyond any applicable notice and cure period with respect to any provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, the removal of property and the repair of resultant damage, Landlord may, without notice to Tenant, but shall not be required to, apply all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default and Tenant shall, upon demand therefor, restore the Security Deposit to its original amount; provided, however, if Landlord cannot freely tender a default notice to Tenant (e.g., following a bankruptcy filing) presenting a notice and expiration of the related cure period shall not be a condition precedent to Xxxxxxxx’s right to apply the Security Deposit. Any unapplied portion of the Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant, or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Xxxxxx's interest hereunder, within forty-five (45) days following the expiration of the Lease Term. Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit and Landlord shall have the right to commingle the Security Deposit with Landlord's other funds. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and relinquishes any and all rights, benefits, or protections, if any, Tenant now has, or in the future may have, under Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code (except subsection (b)), any successor statute, and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, including, but not limited to, any provision of law which (i) establishes the time frame by which a landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, or (ii) provides that a landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by a tenant, or to clean the subject premises. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that that (A) any statutory time frames for the return of a security deposit are superseded by the express period identified in this Article 21, above, and (B) rather than be so limited, Landlord may claim from the Security Deposit (i) any and all sums expressly identified in this Article 21, above, and (ii) any additional sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any and all losses or damages caused by Xxxxxx's default of this Lease beyond any applicable

ARTICLE 23
SIGNS
23.1 Full Floors. Subject to Landlord's prior written approval, in its reasonable discretion, and provided all signs are in keeping with the quality, design and style of the Building and Project, Tenant, if the Premises comprise an entire floor of the Building, at its sole cost and expense, may install identification signage anywhere in the Premises including in the elevator lobby of the Premises, provided that such signs must not be visible from the exterior of the Building.
23.2 Multi-Tenant Floors. If other tenants occupy space on the floor on which the Premises is located, Tenant's identifying signage shall be provided by Landlord, at Tenant's cost, and such signage shall be comparable to that used by Landlord for other similar floors in the Building and shall comply with Xxxxxxxx's then-current Building standard signage program.
23.3 Prohibited Signage and Other Items. Any signs, notices, logos, pictures, names or advertisements which are installed and that have not been separately approved by Landlord may be removed without notice by Landlord at the sole expense of Tenant. Tenant may not install any signs on the exterior or roof of the Project or the Common Areas. Any signs, window coverings, or blinds (even if the same are located behind the Landlord-approved window coverings for the Building), or other items visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building, shall be subject to the prior approval of Landlord, in its sole discretion.
23.4 Building Directory. Tenant shall have the right, at no charge to Tenant, to one Building standard directory listing on Landlord's directory board located in the lobby of the Building for so long as such directory board exists. Landlord shall have the right, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, to remove such directory board and replace the same with an electronic or similar directory or utilize Landlord's access control or concierge personnel to provide directory services to visitors and guests of the Building.
23.5 Monument Signage.
23.5.1 Tenant shall have the right to have its name listed on the shared monument sign for the Project (the “Monument Sign”), subject to the terms of this Section 23.5 The design, size and color of Tenant’s signage with Tenant’s name to be included on the Monument Sign, and the manner in which it is attached to the Monument Sign, shall comply with all Applicable Law and shall be subject to the approval of Landlord, any applicable governmental authorities and any owner’s or business association affecting the Project. Landlord reserves the right to withhold consent to any sign that, in the sole but reasonable judgment of Landlord, is not harmonious with the design standards of the Project and Monument Sign.

that all names on the Monument Sign be of the same size and style. Tenant must obtain Landlord's written consent to any proposed signage and lettering prior to its fabrication and installation. The location of Tenant’s name on the Monument Sign shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval. To obtain Landlord's consent, Tenant shall submit design drawings to Landlord showing the type and sizes of all lettering; the colors, finishes and types of materials used; and (if applicable and Landlord consents in its sole discretion) any provisions for illumination. Although the Monument Sign will be maintained by Landlord, Tenant shall pay its proportionate share of the cost of any maintenance and repair associated with the Monument Sign. In the event that additional names are listed on the Monument Sign, all future costs of maintenance and repair shall be prorated between Tenant and the other parties that are listed on such Monument Sign.
23.5.2 Tenant’s name on the Monument Sign shall be designed, constructed, installed, insured, maintained, repaired and removed from the Monument Sign all at Tenant’s sole risk, cost and expense. Tenant, at its cost, shall be responsible for the maintenance, repair or replacement of Tenant’s signage on the Monument Sign, which shall be maintained in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.
23.5.3 Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Xxxxxx's rights granted herein will terminate and Landlord may remove Tenant's name from the Monument Sign at Tenant's sole and reasonable cost and expense and restore the Monument Sign to the condition it was in prior to installation of Tenant’s signage thereon, ordinary wear and tear excepted. The cost of such removal and restoration shall be payable as additional rent within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s demand. Landlord may, at any time during the Lease Term (or any extension thereof), upon five (5) days prior written notice to Tenant, relocate the position of Tenant's name on the Monument Sign to a location reasonably approved by Xxxxxx. The cost of such relocation of Tenant's name shall be at the cost and expense of Landlord.
23.5.4 The rights provided in this Section 23.5 shall be non-transferable except in connection with a Transfer pursuant to Article 14 of this Lease.

and repair the Building in accordance with the terms of this Lease, Landlord shall cause the Building Signage to be removed from the Building and the Building to be repaired and restored to the condition which existed prior to the installation of the Building Signage (including, if necessary, the replacement of any precast concrete panels), all at the sole cost and expense of Tenant and otherwise in accordance with this Lease, without further notice from Landlord.

ARTICLE 24
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises or the Project which will in any way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated, including any such governmental regulations related to disabled access (collectively, "Applicable Laws"). At its sole cost and expense, Tenant shall promptly comply with any Applicable Laws (including the obligation to make alterations), and shall otherwise cure any violations of Applicable Laws, which relate to (i) Tenant's use of the Premises, (ii) any Alterations made by Tenant to the Premises, or (iii) the Base Building, but as to the Base Building, only to the extent such obligations are triggered by Alterations made by Tenant to the Premises to the extent such Alterations are not normal and customary business office improvements, or triggered by Tenant's use of the Premises for non‑general office use. Nothing herein shall require Tenant to perform any alterations, additions or improvements which are necessary to comply with Applicable Laws with respect to the Common Areas, unless such compliance relates to the Common Areas on any floor on which the Premises are located and arises directly out of the performance of alterations, additions, repairs or other work by or on behalf of Tenant in the Premises (other than the Tenant Improvements performed by Landlord), or Tenant’s specific use of the Premises for purposes other than general office use. In addition, nothing herein shall require Tenant, with respect to the Common Areas or the Premises, to comply with Applicable Laws which require alterations, capital improvements or the installation of new or additional mechanical, electrical, plumbing or fire/life safety systems on a Building-wide basis without reference to the particular use of Tenant (other than general office use), or any alterations, additions or improvements performed by or on behalf of Tenant (other than the Tenant Improvements performed by Landlord). Should any standard or regulation now or hereafter be imposed on Landlord or Tenant by a state, federal or local governmental body charged with the establishment, regulation and enforcement of occupational, health or safety standards for employers, employees, landlords or tenants, then Tenant agrees, at its sole cost and expense, to comply promptly with such standards or regulations and to cooperate with Landlord, including, without limitation, by taking such actions as Landlord may reasonably require, in Landlord's efforts to comply with such standards or regulations. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Xxxxxx has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall promptly pay all fines, penalties and damages that may arise out of or be imposed because of its failure to comply

with the provisions of this Article 24. For purposes of Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges, that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialists (CASp). As required by Section 1938(e) of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby states as follows: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises." In furtherance of the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows: (a) any CASp inspection requested by Tenant shall be conducted, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, by a CASp approved in advance by Landlord; and (b) any repairs within the Premises to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards; and any repairs to the Building (outside the Premises) required to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards, shall be governed by the other terms of this Article 24. Landlord shall comply with all Applicable Laws relating to the Base Building, provided that compliance with such Applicable Laws is not the responsibility of Tenant under this Lease, and provided further that Landlord's failure to comply therewith would prohibit Tenant from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Premises, or would unreasonably and materially affect the safety of Tenant's employees or create a significant health hazard for Tenant's employees, or would otherwise materially and adversely affect Tenant's use of or access to the Premises. Landlord shall be permitted to include in Operating Expenses any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord under this Article 24 to the extent not prohibited by the terms of Article 4 of this Lease, above. Tenant hereby agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify Landlord if Tenant makes any Alterations or improvements to the Premises that might impact accessibility to the Premises or Building under any disability access laws. Landlord hereby agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify Tenant if Landlord makes any alterations or improvements to the Premises that might impact accessibility to the Premises or Building under any disability access laws.
ARTICLE 25
LATE CHARGES
If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within five (5) business days after Xxxxxx's receipt of written notice from Landlord that said amount is due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount plus any reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due hereunder; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to notice of non-payment and a five (5) business day cure period prior to the imposition of such late charge on the first (1st) occasion in any twelve (12) month period in which any installment of rent or other sum due from Tenant hereunder is not paid timely. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner.

LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT; PAYMENTS BY TENANT
26.1 Landlord's Cure. All covenants and agreements to be kept or performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent, except to the extent, if any, otherwise expressly provided herein. If Tenant shall fail to perform any obligation under this Lease, and such failure shall continue in excess of the time allowed under Section 19.1.2, above, unless a specific time period is otherwise stated in this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant's part without waiving its rights based upon any default of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligations hereunder.

(B) take possession due to any breach of this Lease in the manner provided herein; and (C) perform any covenants of Tenant which Tenant fails to perform beyond any applicable notice and cure period. Landlord may make any such entries without the abatement of Rent, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, including, without limitation, Section 19.5.2 of this Lease, and may take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes. Tenant hereby waives any claims for damages or for any injuries or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant. In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises by Landlord in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises. No provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as otherwise expressly agreed to be performed by Landlord herein. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the conduct of Xxxxxx’s business in connection with such entries into the Premises and shall comply, and cause its agents to comply, with Tenant’s reasonable security and confidentiality measures provided to Landlord. Tenant shall have the right to require Landlord and its agents be accompanied by a representative of Tenant. Landlord shall use good faith efforts to ensure that the performance of any such work or repairs or alterations performed by Landlord shall not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises for the Permitted Use.

In no event shall Tenant be entitled to use more than the amount and type of parking passes set forth in Section 9 of the Summary. Tenant's continued right to use the parking passes is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the parking facility where the parking passes are located (including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord and the prohibition of vehicle repair and maintenance activities in the Project's parking facilities), Tenant's cooperation in seeing that Tenant's employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations and Tenant not being in default under this Lease.

WHEREAS, the terms “Premises”, “Lease”, “Property”, “Loan”, “Assignment of Leases and Rents”, “Note”, “Security Instrument”, “Loan Agreement”, “Event of Default”, “Obligations” and “Loan Documents” are defined in the Schedule of Definitions attached hereto as Exhibit B;
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant have entered into the Lease covering the Premises in the Property;
WHEREAS, Xxxxxx will not make the Loan evidenced by the Note, which Note is secured by the Security Instrument covering the Property and the Assignment of Leases and Rents, unless the Lease is subordinate to the Security Instrument;
WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to expressly confirm the subordination of the Lease to the Security Instrument and the Assignment of Leases and Rents, it being a condition precedent to Lender’s obligation to make the Loan that the Security Instrument and the Assignment of Leases and Rents be at all times prior and superior to the leasehold interests and estate created by the Lease; and
WHEREAS, Tenant has requested that Xxxxxx agree not to disturb Tenant’s possessory rights in the Premises in the event Lender should foreclose the Security Instrument or the Assignment of Leases and Rents or Lender should otherwise come into possession of the Premises and, provided that Tenant is not then in default under the Lease and provided further that Tenant attorns to Lender or the purchaser at any foreclosure sale of the Property or purchaser in lieu of foreclosure, Lender is willing to agree to such request, upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:
1. Subordination.
Anything to the contrary in the Lease notwithstanding, the Lease and the leasehold estate created thereby, and all of Tenant’s rights thereunder, are and shall be and shall at all times remain subject, subordinate and inferior to the Security Instrument and the Assignment of Leases and Rents and all rights of Lender thereunder and under the Loan Documents, and to any and all renewals, revisions, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. This
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
EXHIBIT F -3- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
Agreement will have the same force and effect as if the Security Instrument and the Assignment of Leases and Rents have been recorded prior to the Lease or any notice thereof.
2. Acknowledgment and Agreement by Tenant.
Xxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) Tenant has been advised of the existence of the Security Instrument and the agreements evidencing and securing the Loan; and
(b) From and after the date hereof, in the event of any act or omission by Landlord which would give Tenant the right, either immediately or after the lapse of time, to terminate the Lease, to claim a partial or total eviction, to withhold any rent, and/or to otherwise refuse to meet any of Tenant’s obligations to perform under the Lease, Tenant will not exercise any such right:
(i) until it has given written notice of such act or omission to Lender; and
(ii) until the same period of time as is given to Landlord under the Lease to cure such act or omission and an additional period of time of thirty (30) days for a monetary default, or for any other default, the number of days reasonably required for Lender to obtain possession of the Property and to cure such default (but in no event less than an additional thirty (30) day period and no more than an additional one hundred twenty (120) day period so long as Lender is diligently pursuing cure), shall have elapsed following Xxxxxx’s receipt of such notice.
(c) Xxxxxx has notice that the Lease and the rents and all other sums due thereunder have been assigned or are to be assigned to Lender as security for the Loan secured by the Security Instrument and the Assignment of Leases and Rents. In the event Xxxxxx notifies Tenant of the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Security Instrument and demands that Tenant pay its rents and all other sums due or to become due under the Lease directly to Lender or its designee, Tenant shall honor such demand and pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Lender or as otherwise authorized in writing by Xxxxxx. Landlord hereby irrevocably authorizes Tenant to make the foregoing payments to Lender or its designee upon such notice and demand.
(d) Tenant shall send a copy of any default notices given Landlord under the Lease to Lender at the same time and in the same manner such notice is sent to Landlord.
(e) Within ten (10) business days after Xxxxxx’s request, Tenant shall deliver to Lender and/or to any person designated by Lender, estoppel certificates executed by Tenant and acceptable to Lender in all respects certifying (if such be the case) that the Lease is in full force and effect, the date and amount of Tenant’s most recent payment of rent, that to Tenant’s knowledge there are no defenses or offsets outstanding under the Lease (or stating those claimed by Tenant, as the case may be) and such other information about Tenant or the Lease as Lender may reasonably request.
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
EXHIBIT F -4- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
(f) This Agreement satisfies any condition or requirement in the Lease relating to the granting of a nondisturbance agreement.
(g) Tenant shall not agree to any amendment or modification of the Lease without Xxxxxx’s prior written consent, which consent may be given or withheld at Lender’s sole but reasonable discretion; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be obligated to obtain Xxxxxx’s prior written consent for any procedural amendment or modification of the Lease in connection with Tenant exercising a existing, unilateral right or first offer or other similar option right in the Lease.
(h) Anything in the Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that Lender shall acquire title to, or shall take possession of, the Premises or the Property, Lender shall have no obligation, nor incur any liability, beyond Lender’s then interest, if any, in the Property and Tenant shall look exclusively to such interest of Lender, if any, in the Property for the payment and discharge of any obligations imposed upon Lender hereunder or under the Lease and Lender is hereby released and relieved of any other obligations hereunder and under the Lease. Xxxxxx agrees that with respect to any money judgment which may be obtained or secured by Tenant against Lender, Tenant shall look solely to the estate or interest owned by Lender in the Premises or the Property of which the Premises are a part and Tenant shall not collect or attempt to collect any such judgment out of any other assets of Lender or Xxxxxx’s shareholders, principals, officers, directors, agents or employees.
3. Nondisturbance, Attornment and New Lease.
(a) In the event Lender shall come into possession of or acquire title to the Premises as a result of the enforcement or foreclosure of the Security Instrument, the Loan Agreement, the Note or the Assignment of Leases and Rents, or by means of the delivery to Lender of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or as a result of any other means:
(i) Xxxxxx agrees that Tenant shall not be disturbed in its possession of the Premises for any reason other than one which would entitle the Landlord to terminate the Lease under its terms, or would entitle such Landlord to dispossess the Tenant from the Premises pursuant to the terms of the Lease; provided, however, that at the time Lender comes into possession of, or acquires title to, the Premises, Tenant is not in default under the Lease beyond the expiration of applicable notice and cure periods; and
(ii) Tenant shall be bound to Lender under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof remaining and any extensions or renewals thereof which may be effected in accordance with any option therefor in the Lease, with the same force and effect as if Lender were the landlord under the Lease, and Tenant does hereby attorn to Lender as its landlord, said attornment to be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instruments on the part of any of the parties hereto immediately upon Xxxxxx coming into possession of, or acquiring title to, the Premises. Xxxxxx agrees, however, upon the election of and written demand by Xxxxxx, within sixty (60) days after Xxxxxx receives title to the Premises, to execute an instrument in confirmation of the foregoing provisions, satisfactory to the Lender, in which
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
EXHIBIT F -5- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
Tenant shall acknowledge such attornment and shall set forth the terms and conditions of its tenancy.
(b) In the event any person or entity other than Lender shall come into possession of or acquire title to the Premises as a result of the enforcement or foreclosure of the Security Instrument, the Loan Agreement, the Note, or the Assignment of Leases and Rents, or in the event that Landlord conveys its estate in the Premises to any person or entity other than Lender, or in the event that Landlord’s estate in the Premises passes to a person or entity other than Lender by operation of law or any other means (such person or entity being referred to hereinafter as a “Successor Owner”), then in any of said events:
(i) Tenant shall not be disturbed in its possession of the Premises by such Successor Owner for any reason other than one which would entitle the landlord to terminate the Lease under its terms, or would entitle such landlord to dispossess the Tenant from the Premises pursuant to the terms of the Lease; provided, however, that at the time such Successor Owner comes into possession of, or acquires title to, the Premises, Tenant is not in default beyond the expiration of applicable notice and cure periods; and
(ii) Tenant shall be bound to such Successor Owner under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof remaining and any extensions or renewals thereof which may be effected in accordance with any option therefor in the Lease, with the same force and effect as if such Successor Owner were the landlord under the Lease, and Tenant does hereby attorn to such Successor Owner as its landlord, said attornment to be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instruments on the part of any of the parties hereto immediately upon such Successor Owner coming into possession of, or acquiring title to, the Premises. Xxxxxx agrees, however, upon the election of such Successor Owner, within sixty (60) days after such Successor Owner receives title to the Premises, to execute an instrument in confirmation of the foregoing provisions, satisfactory to such Successor Owner, in which Tenant shall acknowledge such attornment and shall set forth the terms and conditions of its tenancy.
(c) In the event Lender or any Successor Owner shall come into possession of or acquire title to the Premises, as aforesaid, neither Lender nor such Successor Owner shall be:
(i) liable for any act, omission or default of any prior landlord under the Lease (including, without limitation, Landlord); or
(ii) subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord under the Lease (including, without limitation, Landlord); or
(iii) bound by any rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid for more than the then current month to any prior landlord under the Lease (including, without limitation, Landlord) or by any security deposit, cleaning deposit or other prepaid charge which Tenant might have paid in advance to any prior landlord under the Lease (including, without limitation, Landlord), except to the extent such payment or deposit is received by Successor Owner or Landlord, or (A) such payment shall have been expressly
{3925-00031/01363433;7} |
EXHIBIT F -6- |
SHORES CENTER Soleno Therapeutics, Inc. |
approved in writing by Xxxxxx and (B) such prepayment is made pursuant to express requirements of the Lease; or
(iv) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease made without Lender’s reasonable written consent; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any procedural amendment or modification of the Lease in connection with Tenant exercising an existing, unilateral right or first offer or other similar option right in the Lease; or
(v) except for Xxxxxxxx’s cost of completion of the Tenant Improvements (as defined in the Lease on the date hereof), bound by any agreement of any landlord under the Lease (including, without limitation, Landlord) with respect to the completion of any improvements at the Property or the Premises or for the payment or reimbursement to Tenant of any contribution to the cost of the completion of any such improvements.
(d) New Lease. Tenant agrees, upon demand of Lender or any Successor Owner which shall have come into possession or acquired title to the Premises, as aforesaid, to execute a lease of the Premises (as tenant) with Lender or such Successor Owner (as landlord) upon the same terms and conditions as the Lease between Tenant and Landlord, which lease shall cover any unexpired term of the Lease existing at the time of such conveyance of title.
4. Acknowledgment and Agreement by Landlord.
Xxxxxxxx, as landlord under the Lease and mortgagor under the Security Instrument, acknowledges and agrees for itself and its heirs, successors and assigns, that:
(a) This agreement does not: (i) constitute a waiver by Lender of any of its rights under the Security Instrument or other Loan Documents and/or (ii) in any way release Landlord from its obligations to comply with the terms, provisions, conditions, covenants, agreements and clauses of the Security Instrument or other Loan Documents.
(b) The provisions of the Security Instrument and other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect and must be complied with by Landlord.
