Section 2 of the Master Lease (as defined below). Said lease, as amended by
First Amendment to Lease dated October 28, 1999 and Second Amendment to Lease

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follow:
1. Sublease Premises
a. Initial Subleased Premises
Sublessor hereby subleases to Sublessee on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Sublease a portion of the Master Premises containing an agreed
area of 5,934 rentable square feet ("rsf'), currently known as Suite(s) 400, as
delineated on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit C ("Premises").
Sublessee shall have shared access to the common kitchen and supervised access,

b. Right of First Opportunity
The contiguous 1,847 rsf and 935 rsf on floor 4 of the Building, shown
on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit C ("Expansion Space"), shall be
referred to as "RFO Space". Sublessee shall have an ongoing Right of First
Opportunity to sublease either of the RFO Space that is 1,847 rsf and, subject
to any conflicting rights granted to other tenants prior to the date the last
party executes this Sublease, the RFO Space that is 935 rsf. Prior to accepting
an offer to sublease either RFO Space to a third party, Sublessor shall notify
Sublessee in writing of third party's interest. Sublessee shall have five (5)
business days from receipt of Sublessor's notice to notify Sublessor of its
intent. All terms and conditions of the Expansion space shall be consistent with
the Sublease. Base Rent for expansion space shall be based on the Base Rent in
this sublease on a per square
foot basis. If Subtenant shall fail to exercise such expansion right, after
notice by Sublessor of the availability of the subject RFO Space, as provided
herein, such right shall be deemed to have lapsed and expired, and shall be of
nor further force or effect with respect to the particular RFO Space. Upon
exercise of said right of first refusal, the term "Premises" as used herein
shall include the subject RFO Space.
2. Term and Possession
a. Term
Provided Master Lessor has consented to this Sublease ("Consent"), the
initial term of this Sublease ("Initial Term") shall commence on July 15, 2002
("Commencement Date"), and shall end on July 31, 2005 ("Expiration Date"). The
Initial Term and Additional Term (as defined below), or the date of any sooner
termination of this Sublease, may be referred to herein as the "Term." Fifteen
days prior to the Commencement Date, Sublessee, its agents and contractors shall
be allowed access to the Premises (for example, to install its telephone system,
and move in its personal property) with no obligation to pay rent. If Sublessee
occupies the space and conducts business prior to July 15, 2002, such date shall
be considered the Commencement Date.
b. Condition of Premises
Prior to the Commencement Date, Sublessor shall paint the Premises,
clean the carpets, convert the shipping/ receiving room to a basic reception/
conference room, and re-key the conference room accessed by the common corridor.
Additionally, Sublessor agrees to keep the cabling located in the Premises or
otherwise serving the Premises in working condition. Otherwise, Sublessee shall
accept the Premises in an "as-is, where-is" condition. Sublessor shall deliver
possession of the Premises as aforesaid in broom clean condition ("Possession").
Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that all tenant improvements and all
furniture, fixtures, and equipment in the Premises as of the Commencement Date,
including (without limitation) those items set forth on Exhibit D hereto, are
and shall remain the sole property of Sublessor subject to Sublessee's rights to
use the same as provided herein. If Sublessor is not able to deliver Possession
to Sublessee on the Commencement Date notwithstanding Sublessor's reasonable,
good faith efforts, Base Rent, as defined in Section 3(a), shall xxxxx until
delivery of Possession. If Possession is not delivered within thirty (30) days
of the Commencement Date, then Sublessee has the option to cancel this Sublease
by delivering written notice of termination to Sublessor. Any delay in the
Commencement Date shall not extend Initial Term.
c. License to Use Personal Property
Sublessor hereby grants Sublessee a license to use the furniture
listed in Exhibit D within the Premises (the "Licensed Property"), at no
additional cost. Such license terminates upon the Expiration Date or, if
exercised, the expiration of the Extension Option, and is "as-is" "where-is"
Page 2 of 10
and without any warranties, express or implied, concerning the condition of the
Licensed Property, and Sublessee assumes all risks relating thereto.
d. Extension Option
So long as Sublessee is not then in default under this Sublease at the time of
exercise, Sublessee shall have the option to extend the Initial Term of this
Sublease for one (1) additional sixteen (16) month period ("Additional Term").
To exercise its option to extend this Sublease for the Additional Term,
Sublessee must deliver to Sublessor a written notice (an "Option Notice")
exercising its extension option not later than January 31, 2005. All of the
terms and conditions of this Sublease shall apply during the Additional Term
except (i) the annual Base Rent shall be $19.00 per rsf of the Premises; (ii)
there shall be no further extension options after the commencement of the
Additional Term; and (iii) there shall be no Tenant Improvements or other
Sublessor concessions during the Additional Term.
3. Base Rent, Operating Expenses and Late Charge
a. Base Rent
Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, on or before the first day of each
calendar month, Base Rent in the amount of (i) $7,500.00 per month for the
twelve month period following the Commencement Date, and (ii) $8,901.00 for each
month thereafter until the end of the Initial Term. The monthly installments of
Base Rent shall be prorated at the rate of 1/30 of the monthly Base Rent per day
for any partial month during the Term. Payment shall be made to the following
address: Avenue A, Inc., 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxx, XX 00000,
Attention: Accounting Department.
b. Operating Expenses
If the Master Lease requires Sublessor to pay to Lessor all or a
portion of the expenses of operating the Building ("Operating Costs") including
but not limited to taxes, utilities, or insurance, then Sublessee shall pay to
Sublessor as additional rent 100 percent, of Sublessee's percentage share
(Sublessee's rsf at the time of adjustment divided by Sublessor's total rsf at
the time of adjustment), of the amounts payable by Sublessor for Operating
Costs, to the extent that such Operating Costs for the subject year exceed the
Operating Costs for the base year of 2002. If the Master Lease provides for the
payment by Sublessor of Operating Costs on the basis of an estimate thereof,
then as and when adjustments between estimated and actual Operating Costs are
made under the Master Lease, the obligations of Sublessor and Sublessee
hereunder shall be adjusted in a like manner; and if. any such adjustment shall
occur after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, then the
obligations of Sublessor and Sublessee under this Paragraph shall survive such
expiration or termination. Sublessor shall, upon request by Sublessee, furnish
Sublessee with copies of all statements submitted by Lessor of actual or
estimated Operating Costs during the Term.
Page 3 of 10
c. Late Charge
Sublessee acknowledges that paying Base Rent late will cause Sublessor
to incur administrative, collection, processing and accounting costs and
expenses not contemplated under this Sublease, the exact amounts of which are
extremely difficult or impracticable to fix. Sublessee therefore agrees that if
rent or any other sum is due and payable pursuant to this Sublease, such amounts
shall be payable upon the same terms and conditions as the Master Lease and the
same late charges shall apply. Sublessor and Sublessee agree that this late
charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is fair
compensation to Sublessor for its loss caused by Sublessee's nonpayment. Should
Sublessee pay the monthly rent late, but fail to pay said late charge, or pay
said late charge, but fail to pay contemporaneously therewith all unpaid amounts
of Rent, Sublessor's acceptance of the late rent or said late charge shall not
constitute a waiver of Sublessee's default with respect to Sublessee's
nonpayment, nor prevent Sublessor from exercising all other rights and remedies
available to Sublessor under this Lease or under law.
d. Security Deposit
Within ten (10) business days after the execution of this Sublease,
Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor the first month's rent due and provide
Sublessor the additional sum of Eight Thousand Nine Hundred One and 00/100
Dollars ($8,901.00) ("Security Deposit"). If Sublessee fails to pay rent or
other charges when due under this Sublease, or fails to perform any of its
obligations hereunder, Sublessor may use or apply all or any portion of the
Security Deposit for the payment of any sum for which the Sublessor may become
obligated by reason of Sublessee's default or breach, or for any loss or damage
sustained by Sublessor as a result of Sublessee's default or breach. If
Sublessor so uses any portion of the Security Deposit, Sublessee shall, within
ten (10) days after written demand by Sublessor, restore the Security Deposit to
the full amount originally deposited less any amounts applied to the first
months' rent, and Sublessee's failure to do so shall constitute a default under
this Sublease. Within thirty (30) days after the termination of this Sublease,
or Sublessee has vacated the Premises, whichever shall last occur, and provided
Sublessee is not then in default of any of its obligations hereunder, the
Security Deposit, or so much thereof as had not therefore been applied by
Sublessor, shall be returned to Sublessee or to the last assignee, if any, of
Sublessee's interest.
4. Use of Premises
The Premises shall be used and occupied only for purposes allowed under the
Master Lease.
5. Parking
Sublessee shall be entitled to the use of nine (9) of Sublessor's parking
spaces, which are guaranteed in the Master Lease, upon the same terms and
conditions as the Master Lease.
Page 4 of 10
6. Assignment and Sublease
Neither this Sublease nor any right hereunder nor the Premises may be
assigned, transferred, encumbered or sublet in whole or in part by Sublessee
without Sublessor's and Landlord's prior written consent, which consent may not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
7. Incorporation by Reference
a. Subject to Lease
This Sublease is subject to all of the terms and conditions of the
Master Lease by and between Sublessor and Master Lessor.
b. Interpretation
All terms and conditions of the Master Lease, are incorporated into
and made a part of this Sublease, except for Paragraphs 1(c),(e)-(k),(m) and
(n), 3,4,6, 9(e), 17, 27,29, and 31 of the Master Lease and such other
provisions of the Master Lease which are directly contradicted or expressly
modified by this Sublease, in which event the terms of this Sublease shall
control over the Master Lease. The Sublessee assumes and agrees to perform the
Sublessor's obligations under the Master Lease during the Term to the extent
that such obligations are applicable to the Premises, provided, however,
Sublessor shall be responsible for paying Rent, as provided in the Master Lease,
to the Master Lessor. Therefore, for the purposes of this Sublease, wherever in
the Master Lease the word "Lessor/Landlord" is used it shall be deemed to mean

Except as otherwise specified by Tenant in writing to Landlord within
seventy-two hours after the close of the Inspection Period, and except for
latent defects not reasonably observable by Tenant, Tenant shall be deemed to
have accepted the Premises at the end of the Inspection Period. If, as a result
of such inspection, Tenant discovers minor deviations or variations from the
plans and specifications for
3
Tenant's improvements which do not materially affect Tenant's use of the
Premises and are of a nature commonly found on a "punch list" (as that term is
used in the construction industry), Tenant shall, during the Inspection Period,
notify Landlord in writing of such deviations. Landlord shall promptly repair
all punch list items. The existence of such punch list items shall not postpone
the Commencement Date of this Lease nor the obligation of Tenant to pay Rent.
5. RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT:
Tenant shall pay Landlord without notice the Rent stated in Section l(h)
hereof and Additional Rent as provided in Section 9 and Section 10 and any other
payments due under this Lease without deduction or offset in lawful money of the
United States in advance on or before the first day of each month at Landlord's
Payment Address set forth in Section l(n) hereof, or to such other party or at
such other place as Landlord may hereafter from time to time designate in
writing. Rent and Additional Rent for any partial month at the beginning or end
of the Lease term shall be prorated in proportion to the number of days in such
month. All amounts which Tenant assumes or agrees to pay to Landlord pursuant to
this Lease shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder and, in the event of
nonpayment thereof, Landlord shall have all remedies provided for in the case of
nonpayment of Rent.
6. SECURITY DEPOSIT:
As security for the performance of this Lease by Tenant, Tenant has paid to
Landlord the Security Deposit as specified in Section l(i) hereof, receipt of
which is hereby acknowledged. Landlord may apply all or any part of the Security
Deposit to the payment of any sum in default or any other sum which Landlord may
in its reasonable discretion deem necessary to spend or incur by reason of
Tenant's default. In such event, Tenant shall, within five (5) days of written
demand therefore by Landlord, deposit with Landlord the amount so applied. The
amount of the Security Deposit then held by Landlord shall be repaid to Tenant
within thirty (30) days after the expiration or sooner termination of this
Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep any Security Deposit separate from
its general funds and Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest thereon.
7. PARKING:
The parking made available by Landlord to Tenant shall be subject to the
reasonable rules and regulations of the parking operator, or the city of Seattle
may publish from time to time. Tenant shall provide Landlord with thirty (30)
days prior written notice of the number of parking stalls required by Tenant, up
to the maximum number specified in Addendum D, and of any changes in those
requirements. Landlord shall provide a security person on Second Avenue and.
Xxxxx Street to serve as an escort from the Xxxxxx Garage and Metro bus stop on
Second Avenue, and another security person at Yesler and Third Avenue for escort
services from the Metro bus stop on Third Avenue and the Metro bus tunnel on
Yesler, or other security arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and
Tenant.
8. USES:
The Premises are to be used only for the purposes specified in Section l(q)
hereof ("Permitted Uses"), and for no other business or purpose without the
prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld if Landlord, in
its sole discretion, determines that any proposed use is inconsistent, with or
detrimental to the maintenance and operation of the Building as a first-class
office building or is inconsistent with any restriction on use of the Premises,
the Building, or the Land contained in any lease, mortgage, or other instrument
or agreement by which the Landlord is bound or to which any of such property is
subject. Tenant shall not commit any act that will increase the then existing
cost of insurance on the Building without Landlord's consent. Tenant shall
promptly pay upon demand the amount of any increase in insurance costs caused by
any act or acts of Tenant. Tenant shall not commit or allow to be committed any
waste upon the Premises, or any public or private nuisance or other act which
disturbs the quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in the Building or which is
unlawful. Tenant shall not, without the written consent of Landlord, use any
apparatus, machinery or device in or about the Premises
4
which will cause any substantial noise, vibration or fumes. Tenant shall not
permit smoking in the Premises; Landlord has designated all internal portions of
the Building as a smoke-free zone. If any of Tenant's office machines or
equipment should disturb the quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in the
Building, then Tenant shall provide adequate insulation, or take other action as
may be necessary to eliminate the disturbance. Tenant shall comply with all laws
relating to its use or occupancy of the Premises and shall observe such
reasonable rules and regulations (not inconsistent with the terms of this Lease)
as may be adopted and made available to Tenant by Landlord from time to time for
the safety, care and cleanliness of the Premises or the Building, and for the
preservation of good order therein.
9. SERVICES AND UTILITIES:
(a) STANDARD SERVICES:
Landlord shall maintain the Premises and the public and common areas of the
Building in good order and condition consistent with the operation and
maintenance of a first-class office building in downtown Seattle, Washington.
Landlord shall furnish the Premises with electricity for normal office use,
including lighting and operation of low power usage office machines, water and
elevator service at all times during the term of the Lease. Landlord shall also
provide lamp replacement service for building standard light fixtures, toilet
room supplies, window washing at reasonable intervals, and customary building
janitorial service. No janitorial service shall be provided for Saturdays,
Sundays or legal holidays. The costs of any janitorial or other service provided
by Landlord to Tenant which are in addition to the services ordinarily provided
Building tenants shall be repaid by Tenant as Additional Rent upon receipt of
xxxxxxxx therefor.

From 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, and from 7:30 a.m. to noon on
Saturdays, excluding legal holidays ("Normal Business Hours"), Landlord shall
furnish to the Premises heat and air conditioning. If requested by Tenant,
Landlord shall furnish heat and air conditioning at times other than Normal
Business Hours and the actual cost to Landlord of such services as reasonably
calculated by Landlord shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent. During other
than Normal Business Hours, Landlord may restrict access to the Building in
accordance with the Building's security system, provided that Tenant shall have
at all times during the term of this Lease (24 hours of all days) reasonable
access to the Premises.
(c) INTERRUPTION OF SERVICES:
Landlord shall not be liable for any loss, injury or damage to person or
property caused by or resulting from any variation, interruption, or failure of
any services or facilities provided by Landlord pursuant to this Lease due to
any cause whatsoever. No temporary interruption or failure of such services or
facilities incident to the making of repairs, alterations, or improvements, or
due to accident, strike or conditions or events beyond Landlord's reasonable
control shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant or relieve Tenant from any of
Tenant's obligations hereunder; provided, however, if such interruption or
failure shall continue for five (5) business days, Tenant's Rent hereunder shall
thereafter xxxxx to the extent the Premises are thereby rendered untenantable
for Tenant's normal business operations until such services are restored.
Landlord shall use its best efforts in good faith to minimize any disruption of
Tenant's use of the Premises arising from any interruption or failure of such
services or facilities.
(d) ADDITIONAL SERVICES:
The Building mechanical system is designed to accommodate heating loads
generated by lights and equipment using up to 5 xxxxx per square foot. Before
installing lights and equipment in the Premises which in the aggregate exceed
such amount ("Additional Lights/Equipment"), Tenant shall obtain the written
permission of Landlord. Landlord may refuse to grant such permission unless
Tenant shall agree to pay the costs of Landlord for installation of
supplementary air conditioning capacity or electrical systems as necessitated by
such Additional Lights/Equipment.
(e) ADDITIONAL LIGHTS/EQUIPMENT:
Tenant desires a dual-power feed to the Premises, but acknowledges Landlord
has informed it the dual-power feed will probably be removed in two (2) years.
Landlord and Tenant agree that if the second power feed is withdrawn from the
Building, Tenant will be permitted to purchase and
5
install (in a manner and location approved by Landlord) additional battery
back-up for Tenant's operations. If that occurs, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant
up to $20,000 towards Tenant's out-of-pocket costs incurred in purchasing and
installing adequate additional battery back-up within fifteen (15) days after
presentation of Tenant's paid invoice(s) therefor.
(f) COSTS OF ADDITIONAL SERVICES:
In addition, Tenant shall in advance, on the first day of each month during
the Lease term, pay Landlord as Additional Rent the reasonable amount estimated
by Landlord as the cost of furnishing electricity for the operation of such
Additional Lights/Equipment and the reasonable amount estimated by Landlord as
the costs of operation and maintenance of supplementary air conditioning units
necessitated by Tenant's use of such equipment or lights. Landlord shall be
entitled to install and operate at Tenant's cost a monitoring/metering system in
the Premises to measure the added demands on electricity, heating, ventilation,
and air conditioning systems resulting from such equipment or lights and from
Tenant's after-hours heating, ventilation and air conditioning service
requirements. Tenant shall comply with Landlord's reasonable instructions for
the use of drapes, blinds and thermostats in the Building.
(g) YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE:
All equipment, products, systems and processes utilized by Landlord in
fulfilling its obligations under this Lease, including without limitation: all
hardware, software and networks shall be fully and effectively Year 2000
compliant.
10. COSTS OF OPERATIONS AND REAL ESTATE TAXES:
(a) ADDITIONAL RENT:
Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent its pro rata share of increases in
taxes and operating costs in excess of taxes and operating costs in the Base
Year ("Base Amounts"). Operating costs for the Base Year and each year
thereafter shall be adjusted to reflect 95% occupancy in the Building. Increases
in taxes and in operating costs over the applicable Base Amounts shall be
determined and shall be payable separately under this Section 10.
(b) DEFINITIONS:
(i) For the purposes of this section, "Taxes" shall mean taxes
and assessments (including special district levies) on real and personal
property payable during any calendar year or fiscal year, based on the actual
assessment period, with respect to the Land, the Building and all property of
Landlord, real or personal, used directly in the operation of the Building and
located in or on the Building, together with any taxes levied or assessed in
addition to or in lieu of any such taxes or any tax upon leasing of the Building
or the rents collected (excluding any net income or franchise tax) ("Taxes").
Due to the Historic Designation of the Xxxxx Tower, the Building
should qualify for a special tax valuation designation pursuant to the Special
Valuation of Property Act, RCW 84.26, and as a result of this Special Valuation
of Property Act, the Taxes may be reduced below the amount that would be due and
owing if the Building does not qualify for the special tax valuation. This
designation is a material economic element necessary to induce the Landlord to
undertake and finance the rehabilitation of the Building. For the purposes of
this Section 10, the Base Year Taxes and subsequent lease year Taxes shall be
calculated based on full assessed value multiplied by the applicable millage
rate then in effect.
(ii) For purposes of this Section, "Operating Costs" or "Costs"
shall mean all expenses of Landlord for maintaining, operating and repairing the
Land and Building and the personal property used in connection therewith,
including without limitation insurance premiums, utilities, customary
management fees of not more than four percent (4%) of the gross rents from the
Building and other expenses which in accordance with generally accepted
accounting and management practices would be considered an expense of
maintaining, operating or repairing the Building ("Operating Costs" or "Costs");
excluding, however, the following:
Casualties and Condemnations. Costs occasioned by casualties of a

coverage (all-risk) policy of insurance
6

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, except
Operating Costs shall include amortization of capital improvements (A)
made subsequent to initial development of the Building which are

operating the Building; or, (B) which are reasonably responsive to
requirements imposed with respect to the Building under any amendment
to any applicable building, health, safety, fire, nondiscrimination,
or similar law or regulation ("law"), or any new law, or any new
interpretation of an existing law ("new interpretation"), which
amendment, law or new interpretation is adopted or arose after the
Commencement Date of this Lease.
Reimbursable Expenses. Costs for which Landlord has a right of
reimbursement from others.
Construction Defects. Costs to correct any construction defect in the
Premises or the Building, or to comply with any CC&R, underwriter's
requirement or law applicable to the Premise or the Building which was

guarantees, estoppels, nondisturbance agreements, amendments,
subleases, assignments, and the like; and costs arising from the
violation by Landlord or any occupant of the Land (other than Tenant)
of the terms and conditions of any lease or other agreement, and any
rental concessions or buyouts or tenant relocations.
Mortgages. Interest charges and fees incurred on debt, payment on
mortgages and rent under ground leases; and costs expended in

off-site parking (the Building does not have parking in it).

personal property associated with the Premises, Building or Land,
including any leasehold improvements; any reserves for any purpose;
any bad debt, rent loss, or reserves for bad debt or rent loss.
Promotion. Advertising, promotional costs, costs related to artwork,
or market study fees.
Insurance. Increases in insurance costs caused by the activities of
any other occupant of the Property.
Hazardous Materials. Costs incurred to remove or remediate any
hazardous material from the Building or Land unless caused by Tenant,
its employees, agents, contractors, subtenants, or assigns, and any
judgments, fines, penalties, or other costs incurred in connection
with any hazardous material exposure or release, except to the to
extent that the foregoing is caused by the illegal storage, use or
disposal of the hazardous material in question by Tenant, its
employees, agents, contractors, subtenant or assigns.
7
Management. Wages, salaries, compensation, and labor burden for any
employee not stationed on the Building on a full-time basis or above

(c) ESTIMATED COSTS:
At the beginning of each year after the Base Year, Landlord shall furnish
Tenant a written statement of estimated Operating Costs and Taxes for such year;
a calculation of the amount, if any, by which such estimated Operating Costs and
Taxes will exceed the relevant Base Amounts; and a calculation of Tenant's Pro
Rata Share of any such amount. Tenant shall pay one-twelfth (1/12) of that
amount as Additional Rent for each month during the year. If at any time during
the year Landlord reasonably believes that the actual Operating Costs or Taxes
will vary from such estimated Operating Costs or Taxes by more than five percent
(5%), Landlord may by written notice to Tenant revise the estimate for such
year, and Additional Rent for the balance of such year shall be paid based upon
such revised estimates.
(d) ACTUAL COSTS:
Within ninety (90) days after the end of each year after the Base Year or
as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written
statement setting forth Tenant's Pro Rata Share of the actual Operating Costs
and Taxes in excess of the Base Amounts during the preceding year. If the actual
Operating Costs in excess of the Base Amount or actual Taxes in excess of the
Base Amount, or both, exceed the estimates for each paid by Tenant during the
year, Tenant shall pay the amount of such excess to Landlord as Additional Rent
within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such statement. If the actual
Operating Costs in excess of the Base Amount or actual Taxes in excess of the
Base Amount, or both, are less than the amount paid by Tenant to Landlord, then
the amount of such overpayment by Tenant shall be, at Landlord's option,
credited against any amounts owed by Tenant under this Lease, refunded by check
to Tenant, or credited against the next Rent payable by Tenant hereunder.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10, Tenant shall not receive
any credit or offset against any other amount payable under this Lease to the
extent either actual Operating Costs or Taxes are less than the applicable Base
Amount.
(e) RECORDS AND ADJUSTMENTS:
Landlord shall keep records showing all expenditures made in connection
with Operating Costs and Taxes, and such records shall be available for
inspection by Tenant for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt
of the statement of actual costs ("Record Review Period"); Landlord and Tenant
agree the results of any such audit or review shall remain confidential. Tenant
hereby waives any right to any adjustment of sums paid under this Section 10
unless a claim in writing specifying the reasons therefor is delivered to
Landlord no later than sixty (60) days after the Record Review Period for the
year for which the sums were paid. Operating Costs and Taxes shall be prorated
for any portion of a year at the beginning or end of the term of this Lease.
Notwithstanding this Section 10, the Rent payable by Tenant shall in no event be
less than the Rent specified in Section l(h)hereof.
(f) PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES:
Tenant shall pay all personal property taxes with respect to property of
Tenant located on the Premises or in the Building. "Property of Tenant" shall
include all improvements which are paid for by Tenant and "personal property
taxes" shall include all property taxes assessed against the property of Tenant,
whether assessed as real or personal property.
8
11. CARE OF PREMISES:
Landlord shall perform all normal maintenance and repairs reasonably
determined by Landlord as necessary to maintain the Premises and the Building as
a first-class office building; provided that Landlord shall not be required to
maintain or repair any property of Tenant or any appliances (such as
refrigerators, water heaters, microwave ovens, and the like) which are part of
the Premises. Tenant shall take good care of the Premises. Tenant shall not make
any alterations, additions or improvements ("Alterations") in or to the
Premises, or make changes to locks on doors, or add, disturb or in any way
change any plumbing or wiring ("Changes") without first obtaining the written
consent of Landlord and, where appropriate, in accordance with plans and
specifications reasonably approved by Landlord. As a condition to its approval
imposed at the time such approval is given, Landlord may require Tenant to
remove such Alterations or Changes upon the expiration or earlier termination of
the Term and to restore the Premises to the condition they were in prior to such
Alterations or Changes, including restoring any damage resulting from such
removal, all at Tenant's Expense; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be
required to remove Tenant's initial Tenant Improvements made pursuant to Exhibit
B. Any Alterations or Changes required to be made to Tenant's Premises by any
amendment to any applicable building, health, safety, fire, nondiscrimination,
or similar law or regulation ("law"), or any new law shall be made at Tenant's
sole expense and shall be subject to the prior written consent of Landlord;
provided, however, any such alterations or changes that constitute a Capital
Cost that may be included in Operating Costs pursuant to Section 10(b)(ii) above
shall not be Tenant's sole expense, but shall be included in Operating Costs.
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any reasonable sums expended for examination
and approval of the architectural and mechanical plans and specifications of the
Alterations and Changes and direct costs reasonably incurred during any
inspection or supervision of the Alterations or Changes. All damage or injury
done to the Premises or Building by Tenant or by any persons who may be in or
upon the Premises or (with respect to damage to the Building) by Tenant
officers, employees, contractors, agents, invitees or licensees, including but
not limited to the cracking or breaking of any glass of windows and doors, shall
be paid for by Tenant. Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant to the extent
reasonably possible to schedule janitorial service to the Premises between the
hours of 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
12. ACCESS:

Premises upon prior notice that is reasonable under the circumstances and
(except in case of an emergency) during Normal Business Hours and a
representative of Tenant has right to accompany Landlord (as a condition of such
entry) for the purpose of inspecting the same or for the purpose of cleaning,
repairing, altering or improving the Premises or the Building. Upon reasonable
notice, Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises for the purpose of
showing the Premises to prospective tenants within the period of one hundred
eighty (180) days prior to the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease
term.
13. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION:
(a) DAMAGE AND REPAIR:
If the Building is damaged by fire or any other cause to such extent that
the cost of restoration, as reasonably estimated by Landlord, will equal or
exceed thirty percent (30%) of the replacement value of the Building (exclusive
of foundations) just prior to the occurrence of the damage, or if insurance
proceeds sufficient for restoration are for any reason unavailable and the cost
to repair estimated by Landlord is over $100,000, then Landlord may no later
than the sixtieth day following the damage, give Tenant a notice of election to
terminate this Lease. If the Premises are substantially damaged, and if they
cannot be substantially repaired within 180 days as estimated by Landlord,
Tenant or Landlord has the right to cancel this Lease by giving notice within
thirty (30) days of the damage. In the event of such election, this Lease shall
be deemed to terminate on the thirtieth (30th) day after the giving of said
notice, and Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises within a
reasonable time thereafter, and the Rent and Additional Rent
9
shall be apportioned as of the date of said surrender and any Rent and
Additional Rent paid for any period beyond such date shall be repaid to Tenant.
If the cost of restoration as estimated by Landlord shall amount to less than
thirty percent (30%) of said replacement value of the Building, and insurance
proceeds sufficient for restoration are available, or if Landlord does not elect
to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall restore the Building and the Premises
(to the extent of improvements to the Premises originally provided by Landlord
hereunder) with reasonable promptness, subject to delays beyond Landlord's
control and delays in the making of insurance adjustments by Landlord, and
Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease except as herein provided. To
the extent that the Premises are rendered untenantable, the Rent and Additional
Rent shall proportionately xxxxx, only to the extent such abatement is of the
type covered by a standard policy of rental loss insurance to compensate
Landlord for such loss. No damages, compensation or claim shall be payable by
Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance arising from any
repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises or of the Building.
Landlord shall use its best efforts to effect such repairs promptly.
(b) DESTRUCTION DURING LAST YEAR OF TERM:
In case the Building shall be substantially destroyed by fire or other
cause at any time during the last twelve months of the term of this Lease,
either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease upon written notice to the
other party hereto given within sixty (60) days of the date of such destruction.
(c) TENANT IMPROVEMENTS:
Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on any improvements paid for
by Tenant as provided in Exhibit B or on Tenant's furniture or furnishings or on
any fixtures, equipment, improvements or appurtenances of Tenant under this
Lease and Landlord shall not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or
replace the same.
14. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION:
Whether a loss or damage is due to the negligence of either Landlord or
Tenant, their agents or employees, or any other cause, Landlord and Tenant do
each hereby release and relieve the other, their agents or employees, from
responsibility for, and waive their entire claim of recovery (by way of
subrogation or otherwise) for (i) any loss or damage to the real or personal
property of either, or of any third party, located anywhere in the Building or
on the Land, including the Building itself, arising out of or incident to the
occurrence of any of the perils which would be covered by a fire and extended
coverage (all risk) policy of insurance, and (ii) any loss resulting from
business interruption at the Premises or loss of rental income from the
Building, arising out of or incident to the occurrence of any of the perils
which are of the type covered by a standard business interruption insurance
policy or loss of rental income insurance policy. Each party shall use best
efforts to cause its insurance carriers to consent to the foregoing waiver of
rights of subrogation against the other party.
15. INDEMNIFICATION:
(a) Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against
liabilities, damages, losses, claims, and expenses, including attorneys fees,
arising from any act, omission, or negligence of Tenant or its officers,
contractors, licensees, agents, employees, clients or customers in or about the
Building or Premises or arising from any breach or default under this Lease by
Tenant. The foregoing provisions shall not be construed to make Tenant
responsible for loss, damage, liability or expense resulting from injuries to
third parties caused by the negligence of Landlord, or its officers,
contractors, licensees, agents, employees, clients or customers or other tenants
of the Building.
(b) Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against all
liabilities, damages, losses, claims, and expenses, including attorneys' fees

contractors, licensees, agents, employees, clients, or customers in or about the
Building or Premises, or arising from any breach or default under this Lease by
Landlord. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, Landlord shall not be
liable for
10
any loss or damage to persons or property sustained by Tenant or other persons,
which may be caused by theft, or by any act or neglect of Tenant or any other
tenant or occupant of the Building or any third parties. Except as provided in
the foregoing sentence, in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any
damage to the Premises or for any loss, damage or injury to any property therein
or thereon occasioned by bursting, rupture, leakage or overflow of any plumbing,
or other pipes (including, without limitation, water, steam and/or refrigerant
lines), sprinklers, tanks, drains, drinking fountains or washstands or other
similar cause in, above, upon or about the Premises or the Building.
16. INSURANCE:
(a) LIABILITY INSURANCE:
Tenant shall, throughout the term of this Lease and any renewal hereof, at
its own expense, keep and maintain in full force and effect, a policy of
commercial general liability (occurrence form) insurance, including contractual
liability insuring Tenant's activities upon, in or about the Premises or the
Building against claims of bodily injury of death or property damage or loss

and the Building manager shall be named as an additional insureds.
(b) PROPERTY INSURANCE:
Tenant shall, throughout the term of this Lease and any renewal thereof, at
its own expense, keep and maintain in full force and effect, what is commonly
referred to as "All Risk" or "Special" coverage insurance (excluding earthquake
and flood) on Tenant's Leasehold Improvements in an amount not less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the replacement value thereof. As used in this Lease,
"Tenant's Leasehold Improvements" shall mean any alterations, additions or
improvements installed in or about the Premises by or with Landlord's permission
or otherwise permitted by this Lease, whether or not the cost thereof was paid
for by Tenant.
(c) INSURANCE POLICY REQUIREMENTS:
All insurance required under this Section 16 shall be with companies rated
AV or better by A.M. Best or otherwise reasonably approved by Landlord. No

payment of premium.
(d) CERTIFICATE OF INSURANCE:
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date, and from
time to time thereafter, copies of policies of such insurance or certificates
evidencing the existence and amounts of same and evidencing Landlord and the

the liability of Tenant under this Lease.
(e) PRIMARY POLICIES:
All policies required under Section 16(a) shall be written as primary
policies and not contributing to or in excess of any coverage Landlord may
choose to maintain.
17. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING:
(a) ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE:
Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, encumber or otherwise transfer this
Lease nor sublet the whole or any part of the Premises without in each case
first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, such consent is not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed except: (1) Landlord may withhold
its consent if (i) in Landlord's judgment the nature of the proposed occupant,
its business, experience or reputation in the community is not consistent with
the maintenance or operation of a first-class office building, or (ii) the
nature of the proposed occupant
11
or its business is likely to cause disturbance to the normal use and occupancy
of the Building; (2) Landlord may withhold in its absolute and sole discretion
consent to any mortgage, hypothecation, pledge, or other encumbrance of any
interest in this Lease or the Premises by Tenant or any subtenant; (3) Landlord
may withhold its consent to the extent it deems necessary to comply with any
restriction on use of the Premises, the Building, or the Land contained in any
applicable laws or in any lease, mortgage, or other agreement or instrument by
which the Landlord is bound or to which any of such property is subject;
provided, however, that Landlord shall provide to Tenant a complete and accurate
copy of the applicable portions of such agreement or instrument.
No such assignment, subletting or other transfer shall relieve Tenant of
any liability under this Lease. Consent to any such assignment, subletting or
transfer shall not operate as a waiver of the necessity for consent to any
subsequent assignment, subletting or transfer. No subtenant may assign its
sublease without Landlord's consent. Each request for an assignment or
subletting must be accompanied by a Processing Fee of $500 in order to reimburse
Landlord for expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred in connection with
such request ("Processing Fee"). Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of
all assignments, subleases and assumption instruments.
Tenant may without Landlord's prior consent assign this Lease, in whole or
in part, and may lease all or any part of the Premises, to (a) a parent or
subsidiary of Tenant, the entity with which or into which Tenant may merge
(whether or not Tenant is the survivor of that merger), an entity that is
controlled by, controls or is under common control with Tenant, or an entity
which acquires all of Tenant's assets; (b) so long as Tenant (as assignor or
sublessor) is and remains principally and primarily liable for the obligations
of Tenant under this Lease, and any assignee expressly assumes Tenant's
obligations under this Lease by a written assignment provided to Landlord.
For purposes of this Section 17, the term "control" means the possession,
direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the
management and policies of a person or entity, or majority ownership of any
sort, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or
otherwise.

Landlord, the Land and the Building against all liability, costs and expenses,
including attorneys fees, which Landlord may incur as a result thereof. Provided
that such bond has been furnished to Landlord, Tenant, at its sole cost and
expense and after written notice to Landlord, may contest, by appropriate
proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, any lien,
encumbrance or charge against the Premises arising from work done or materials
provided to or for Tenant, if, and only if, such proceedings suspend the
collection thereof against Landlord, Tenant and the Premises and neither the

privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant in any bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization proceeding.

All rights of Landlord herein enumerated shall be cumulative, and none
shall exclude any other right or remedy allowed by law. In addition to the other
remedies provided in this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to restrain by
injunction the violation or threatened violation of any of the covenants,
agreements or conditions of this Lease.
(b) TENANT'S RIGHT TO CURE:
Tenant shall have a period of three (3) business days from the date of
written notice from Landlord to Tenant within which to cure any default in the
payment of Rent, Additional Rent and other sums due hereunder. Tenant shall have
a period of twenty (20) days from the date of written notice from Landlord to
Tenant within which to cure any other default hereunder; provided, however, that
with respect to any such default capable of being cured by Tenant which cannot
be cured within twenty (20) days, the default shall not be deemed to be uncured
if Tenant commences to cure within twenty (20) days and for so long as Tenant is
diligently pursuing the cure thereof.
13
(c) ABANDONMENT:
Abandonment shall be defined as an absence from the Premises of five (5)
days or more while Tenant is in default or Landlord otherwise reasonably
determines that Tenant has abandoned the Premises and its interest under this
Lease. Any abandonment by Tenant shall be considered a default with no right to
cure, allowing Landlord to re-enter the Premises as hereinafter set forth.
(d) LANDLORD'S REENTRY:
Upon abandonment or an uncured default of this Lease by Tenant, Landlord,
in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have, at its option, may
enter the Premises or any part thereof, and expel, remove or put out Tenant or
any other persons who may be thereon, together with all personal property found
therein; and Landlord may terminate this Lease, or it may from time to time,
without terminating this Lease, relet the Premises or any part thereof for such
term or terms (which may be for a term less than or extending beyond the term
hereof) and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions
as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to repair,
renovate, remodel, redecorate, alter and change the Premises, Tenant remaining
liable for any deficiency computed as hereinafter set forth. In the case of any
default, reentry and/or dispossession all Rent and Additional Rent shall become
due thereupon, together with such expenses as Landlord may reasonably incur for
attorneys fees, advertising expenses, brokerage fees and/or putting the Premises
in good order or preparing the same for re-rental, together with interest
thereon as provided in Section 37(f) hereof, accruing from the date of any such
expenditure by Landlord. No such re-entry or taking possession of the Premises
shall be construed as an election on Landlord's part to terminate this Lease
unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant.
(e) RELETTING THE PREMISES:
At the option of Landlord, rents received by Landlord from such reletting
shall be applied first to the payment of any indebtedness from Tenant to
Landlord other than Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder; second, to the
payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting and including, but not
limited to, attorneys fees, advertising fees and brokerage fees, and to the
payment of any repairs, renovations, remodeling, redecoration, alterations and
changes in the Premises; third, to the payment of Rent and Additional Rent due
and to become due hereunder, and, if after so applying said Rents there is any
deficiency in the Rent or Additional Rent to be paid by Tenant under this Lease,
Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord monthly on the dates specified
herein. Any payment made or suits brought to collect the amount of the
deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the right of Landlord to
collect the deficiency for any subsequent month. The failure of Landlord to
relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof shall not release or affect
Tenant's liability hereunder, nor shall Landlord be liable for failure to relet,
or in the event of reletting, for failure to collect the Rent thereof, and in no
event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of net Rents collected over
sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder. Notwithstanding any such reletting
without termination, Landlord may at any time elect to terminate this Lease for
such previous breach and default. Should Landlord terminate this Lease by reason
of any default, in addition to any other remedy it may have, it may recover from
Tenant the then present value of Rent and Additional Rent reserved in this Lease
for the balance of the Term, as it may have been extended, over the then fair
market rental value of the Premises for the same period, plus all court costs
and attorneys fees incurred by Landlord in the collection of the same.
(f) TRADE FIXTURES:
Tenant shall have no right to, and Tenant agrees that it will not, remove
any trade fixtures or movable furniture from the Premises (without comparable
replacements) at any time while Tenant is in default hereunder.

(a) This Lease shall be subordinate to any first mortgage or deed of trust
(and any other mortgage or deed of trust upon the written election of Landlord)
now existing or hereafter placed upon the Land, the Building or the Premises,
created by or at the instance of Landlord, and to any and all advances to be
made thereunder and to interest thereon and all modifications, renewals and
replacements or extensions thereof ("Landlord's Mortgage"); provided, however,
that
14
notwithstanding any such subordination, as long as Tenant performs its
obligations under this Lease, no foreclosure of, deed given in lieu of
foreclosure of, or sale under, any mortgage or deed of trust, and no steps or
procedures taken under such mortgage or deed of trust, shall affect Tenant's
rights under this Lease or disturb Tenant's peaceful possession of the Premises.
(b) Upon request Tenant shall attorn to the Holder of any Landlord's
Mortgage or any person or persons purchasing or otherwise acquiring the Land,
Building or Premises at any sale or other proceeding under any Landlord's
Mortgage. Tenant shall properly execute, acknowledge and deliver instruments
which the holder of any Landlord's Mortgage may reasonably require to effectuate
the provisions of this Section.

Subject to the terms of Section 13 relating to damage and destruction, upon
expiration of the term of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or otherwise,
Tenant shall promptly and peacefully surrender the Premises to Landlord in as
good condition as when received by Tenant from Landlord or as thereafter
improved (subject to Tenant's obligation to remove any Alterations or Changes if
requested by Landlord pursuant to Section 11, above), reasonable use and wear
and tear and damage from fire and other casualty not required to be repaired by
Tenant, and from condemnation, excepted.
23. REMOVAL OF PROPERTY:

remove all of its movable personal property, telephone, data and computer
cabling, and trade fixtures paid for by Tenant at the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, and shall pay Landlord any damages for injury to the
Premises or Building resulting from such removal. All other improvements and
additions to the Premises shall thereupon become the property of Landlord.
24. NON-WAIVER:
Waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any breach of any term, covenant or
condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term,
covenant, or condition or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other
term, covenant, or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of any
payment 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 amount so accepted, regardless of
Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such
payment.
25. HOLDOVER:
If Tenant shall, with the written consent of Landlord, hold over after the
expiration of the term of this Lease, such tenancy shall be deemed a
month-to-month tenancy, which tenancy may be terminated as provided by
applicable law. During such tenancy, except as otherwise agreed in writing by
the parties, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the greater of (a) the then quoted
rates for similar space in the Building or (b) one hundred twenty-five percent
(125%) of the Rent and Additional Rent in effect upon the date of such
expiration as stated herein, and to be bound by all of the terms, covenants and
conditions herein specified, so far as applicable. Acceptance by Landlord of
Rent and Additional Rent after such expiration or earlier termination shall not
result in a renewal of this Lease. The foregoing provisions of this Section 25
are in addition to and do not affect Landlord's right of re-entry or any rights
of Landlord hereunder or as otherwise provided by law. If Tenant shall hold over
after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease without the written
consent of Landlord, such occupancy shall be deemed an unlawful detainer of the
Premises subject to the applicable laws of the state in which the Building is
located and, in addition, Tenant shall be liable for any costs, damages, losses
and expenses incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant's failure to surrender
the Premises in accordance with this Lease.

date.
(b) CONSTRUCTIVE TAKING OF ENTIRE PREMISES:
In the event of a taking of a material part of but less than all of the

opinion of Landlord, the Building should be restored in such a way as to alter
the Premises materially, Landlord shall forward a written notice to Tenant of
such determination not more than sixty, (60) days after the date of taking. The
term of this Lease shall expire upon such date as Landlord shall specify in such
notice but not earlier than the taking of possession pursuant to the taking.
(c) PARTIAL TAKING:
In case of taking of a part of the Premises, or a portion of the Building
not required for the reasonable use of the Premises, then this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect and the Rent shall be equitably reduced based
on the proportion by which the floor area of the Premises is reduced, such Rent
reduction to be effective as of the date title to such portion vests in the
condemning authority. If a portion of the Premises shall be so taken which
renders the remainder of the Premises unsuitable for continued occupancy by
Tenant under this Lease. Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice to
Landlord within sixty (60) days after the date of such taking and the term of
this Lease shall expire upon such date as Tenant shall specify in such notice
not earlier than thirty (30) days after the date of such notice.

constructive, or entire taking by eminent domain, and Tenant hereby assigns to

authority compensation for any loss to which Tenant may be put for Tenant's
moving expenses, business interruption or taking of Tenant's personal property
and leasehold improvements paid for by Tenant (not including Tenant's
leasehold interest) provided that such damages may be claimed only if they are
awarded separately in the eminent domain proceedings and not out of or as part
of the damages recoverable by Landlord.

deed of trust at such place as such holder shall specify to Tenant in writing;

other, declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Lease, including any suit
by Landlord for the recovery of Rent, Additional Rent or other payments

Premises notice and reasonable time to cure such alleged default by Landlord.

a written request by Landlord as herein provided, Tenant shall be deemed to have

Any provision of this Lease which shall be held invalid, void or illegal
shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision hereof and the
remaining provisions hereof shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.
(f) OVERDUE PAYMENTS:
Tenant acknowledges that a late payment of Rent or other sums due hereunder
will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease. Such costs
may include, but not be limited, to, processing and accounting charges, and
penalties imposed by terms of any contracts, mortgages or deeds of trust
covering the Building. Therefore, in the event Tenant shall fail to pay any
Rent, Additional Rent or other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease for seven

Rent, a late charge ("Late Charge") equal to 5% of such amount owing, but not in
excess of the highest rate permitted by law. In addition to any Late Charges
which may be incurred hereunder, any Rent, Additional Rent or other sums payable
by Tenant under this Lease which are more than thirty (30) days past due, shall
bear interest at a rate equal to 18% per annum but not in excess of the highest
lawful rate permitted under applicable laws, calculated from the original due
date thereof to the date of payment ("Overdue Fee"); provided, however, the
minimum Overdue Fee shall be $ 100.00.
In addition, if payments are received by check or draft from Tenant, and
two (2) or more of such checks or drafts are dishonored by the bank or other
financial institution they were drawn upon in any twelve (12) month period,
Landlord may thereafter require all Rent and other payments due hereunder from
Tenant to Landlord to be made by bank cashier's or bank certified check or other
similar means of payment and Landlord shall not be required to accept any checks
or drafts of Tenant which do not comply with such requirements.
(g) CONSENT AND DISCRETION:
Whenever the consent of a party to this Lease is required, except where
this Lease expressly provides otherwise, such consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Whenever a party exercises its discretion
under the terms of this Lease, except where this Lease provides that such party
shall be entitled to exercise its sole discretion, that discretion shall be
exercised reasonably.
(h) FORCE MAJEURE:
Except for the payment of Rent, Additional Rent and other sums payable by
Tenant, time periods for Tenant's or Landlord's performance under any provisions
of this Lease shall be extended for periods of time during which Tenant's or
Landlord's performance is prevented due to circumstances beyond Tenant's or
Landlord's reasonable control.
(i) RIGHT TO CHANGE PUBLIC SPACES:
Landlord shall have the right at any time, without thereby creating an
actual or constructive eviction or incurring any liability to Tenant therefor,
to change the arrangement or location of such of the following as are not
contained within the Premises or any part thereof: entrances, passageways, doors
and doorways, corridors, stairs, toilets and other like public service portions

ADDENDUM 'A'
RIGHT OF EARLY OCCUPANCY
This Early Occupancy Addendum ("Addendum")is attached to and made a part
of that certain Lease Agreement (the "Lease") between Xxxxx Foundation, a
Washington 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation ("Landlord ") and Avenue A, Inc., a
Washington corporation ("Tenant"). Defined terms used in this Addendum shall
have the meanings given them in the Lease. In the event of conflict between the
terms of the Lease and the terms of this Addendum, the terms of this Addendum
shall prevail.
Landlord has agreed to allow Tenant to occupy space in the Building on a
temporary basis while the tenant improvements in the Premises are being
completed, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein. Accordingly, in
consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, Landlord and Tenant now
agree:
1. Tenant, its agents, and contractors shall be allowed access to the
premises seven (7) days prior to the Commencement Date or other designated
occupancy date, as the case may be, with no obligations to pay rent, for the
purpose of planning, measuring and installing improvements such as telephone
systems, computer cabling, etc. Landlord shall approve in writing the items to
be installed, the plan and method of installation, and timing thereof, in
advance. Tenant shall not interfere with Landlord's work taking place in or
about the Premises. Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless
from and against any and all damage, claims, causes of action or liability
(including actual attorneys' fees and costs) arising from Tenant's early
occupancy.

ADDENDUM 'B'
OPTION TO EXTEND TERM
Tenant is granted the right to extend the term of this lease for a total of one
(1) term of five (5) years, (which shall be referred to herein as "Extension
Period"), on the same terms and conditions (except Rent) as set forth in this
Lease. The right to extend (hereinafter referred to as the "Option") may be
exercised only in the event the Tenant is not in default (past applicable cure
periods) at the time said Option right is exercised, at the time the Extension
Period is to commence, or more than three (3) times during the Term.
In the event Tenant wishes to exercise its Option to Extend, Tenant shall notify
Landlord in writing no later than nine (9) months before the expiration of the
then-lease term. If the above conditions are satisfied, Landlord and Tenant
shall be bound to extend the term of the Lease on the same terms and conditions
as the original Lease, except for the Minimum Monthly Rent, which shall be
Market Rent (as defined herein).
"Market Rent" as used herein shall mean the then prevailing market rental rate
on a level basis (i.e., both lease renewals and new leases) for office space of
comparable quality, design and location in the Seattle Central Business District
market area (I-5 to Xxxxxxx Bay, and from Lake Union to Union Station) for
tenants occupying 25,000 square feet or more, taking into consideration the
length of the Option term and tenant improvements paid for by Landlord and
Tenant.
The parties shall negotiate in good faith to establish the Market Rent. If the
parties are unable to agree on Market Rent within thirty (30) days after Tenant
gives Landlord its notice exercising the Option (the "Notice Date"), then the
Market Rent shall be determined by independent appraisers or by arbitration (as
applicable) and each party shall promptly appoint a disinterested, independent
appraiser who is a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers
(an "Appraiser") and has at least ten (10) years experience appraising office
rental properties in the Puget Sound area. If the Appraisers are unable to reach
agreement about Market Rent within thirty (30) days after the Notice Date, then
either party on notice to the other may request appointment of a single
arbitrator by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with
its then prevailing real estate valuation arbitration rules as modified by this
Section. If the AAA does not appoint an arbitrator meeting the same
qualifications of an Appraiser within thirty (30) days after the request, then
either party may apply to the presiding judge of the King County Superior Court
who, acting in his individual (not judicial) capacity, shall make the
appointment.
Once the arbitrator is appointed, each Appraiser promptly shall submit his
determination of Market Rent to the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall determine
Market Rent (applying the definition stated above) within ten (10) days based
solely on the materials submitted by the Appraisers and the determination shall
not exceed or be less than the Market Rent determinations of the Appraisers.
Each party shall bear the expense of retaining its Appraiser. The fees and
expenses of the arbitrator and other expenses of the arbitration shall be borne
equally by the parties. The arbitrator's determination of Market Rent shall be
final and binding on the parties. Judgment upon the determination of Market Rent
rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
