1. Lender, Informix, Assignee and Landlord do hereby covenant and agree
that the Lease with all rights, options (including options to acquire or lease
all or any part of the Premises), liens and charges created thereby, is and
shall continue to be subject and subordinate in all respects to the Mortgage
and to any renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions
thereof and to all advancements made thereunder.
2. Lender does hereby agree with Assignee that, in the event Lender,

modification of the Lease made without its written consent. Nothing contained
herein shall prevent Lender from naming Informix in any foreclosure or other
action or proceeding initiated by Lender pursuant to the Mortgage to the extent
necessary under applicable Law in order for Lender to avail itself of and

liability with respect to any warranties of any nature whatsoever, including
any warranties respecting use, compliance with zoning, hazardous wastes or
environmental laws, Landlord's title, Landlord's authority, habitability,
fitness for purpose or possession arising prior to the time it becomes a
Succeeding Owner. In the event that Lender or any other Succeeding Owner shall
acquire title to the Premises or the Property, Lender or any other Succeeding
Owner shall have no obligation, nor incur any liability, beyond Lender's then
equity interest, if any, in the Property, and Informix and Assignee shall look
exclusively to such equity interest of Lender or any other Succeeding Owner, if
any, in the
3
Property for the payment and discharge of any obligations or liability imposed
upon Lender or any other Succeeding Owner hereunder, under the Lease or under
any new lease of the Premises.
7. Informix and Assignee understand and acknowledge that Lender is about

whom the Mortgage and/or Assignment of Leases may subsequently be assigned) are
relying upon the covenants, representations and warranties contained herein in
making such loan. Further, Informix and Assignee have notice that the Lease and
the rent and all other sums due thereunder have been assigned or are to be
assigned to lender as security for the Loan secured by the Mortgage. In the
event that Lender (or any person or entity to whom the Mortgage and/or
Assignment of Leases may subsequently be assigned) notify Informix and Assignee
of a default under the Mortgage and/or Assignment of Leases and demand that
Informix and Assignee pay their rent and all other sums due under the Lease to
Lender (or such future lender), Informix and Assignee shall honor such demand
and pay the rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Lender (or
such future lender) or as otherwise required pursuant to such notice. Informix
and Assignee agree to notify Lender of any default(s) by Landlord under the
Lease; Lender shall have the same right to cure such default(s) as is provided
to Landlord under the Lease.

inoperative, then all of the remaining portions shall remain in full force and
effect, and, so far as is reasonable and possible, effect shall be given to the
intent manifested by the portion or portions held to be invalid or inoperative.
9. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of California.
10. Lender shall not, either by virtue of the Mortgage, the Assignment of
Leases or this Agreement, be or become a mortgagee in possession or be or
become subject to any liability or obligation under the Lease or otherwise
until Lender shall have acquired the interest of Landlord in the Premises, by
foreclosure or otherwise, and then such liability or obligation of Lender under
the Lease shall extend only to those liabilities or obligations accruing
subsequent to the date that Lender has acquired the interest of Landlord in the
Premises as modified by the terms of this Agreement.
