("SUBLANDLORD"), and HI/FN, a Delaware corporation ("SUBTENANT").
RECITALS
This Agreement is made with regard to the following facts:
A. Master Landlord and Sublandlord, as tenant, entered into a Lease dated
June 4, 1997 (the "MASTER LEASE"), for premises located at 0000 Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000 (the "PREMISES") in the office building
commonly known as PACIFIC VIEW PLAZA (the "BUILDING"). Initially capitalized
terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as described in
the Lease.
B. Under the terms of Paragraph 9 of the Master Lease, Sublandlord has
requested Master Landlord's consent to the Sublease Agreement dated October 5,
2000, between Sublandlord and Subtenant (the "SUBLEASE"), which would sublease
to Subtenant the Premises, as more particular described in the Sublease (the
"SUBLEASED PREMISES"). A copy of the Sublease is attached to this Agreement as
EXHIBIT A.
C. Master Landlord is willing to consent to the Sublease on the terms and
conditions contained in this Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this
Agreement, and for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are acknowledged by the parties, the parties agree as follows.
1. MASTER LANDLORD'S CONSENT. Master Landlord consents to the
Sublease. This consent is granted only on the terms and conditions stated in
this Agreement. Master Landlord is not bound by any of the terms, covenants, or
conditions of the Sublease. The Sublease is subject and subordinate to the
Master Lease.
2. LIMITS OF CONSENT.
2.1 NONRELEASE OF SUBLANDLORD; FURTHER TRANSFERS; RECAPTURE
RIGHTS. Neither the Sublease nor this Agreement will:
(a) release Sublandlord from any liability, whether past,
present or future, under the Master Lease;
(b) alter the primary liability of Sublandlord to pay the
Rent and perform all of Tenant's obligations under the Master Lease (including
the payment of all bills rendered by Master Landlord for charges incurred by
Subtenant for services and materials supplied to the Subleased Premises);
(c) be construed as a waiver of Master Landlord's right to
consent to any proposed transfer after the date hereof by Sublandlord under the
Master Lease or Subtenant under the Sublease, or as a consent to any portion of
the Subleased Premises being used or occupied by any other party; or
(d) limit Master Landlord's right, in the event of a
proposed future sublease, sub-sublease or any other transfer of the Lease, to
recapture any portion of the Premises, including the Subleased Premises,
affected by that proposed sublease, as provided in Paragraph 21 of the Master
Lease.
Master Landlord may consent to the subsequent sublease and
assignment of the Sublease or any amendments or modifications to the Sublease
without notifying Sublandlord or anyone else liable under the Master Lease,
including any guarantor of the Master Lease, and without obtaining their
consent. No such action by Master Landlord will relieve those persons from any
liability to Master Landlord or otherwise with regard to the Subleased
Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall
diminish any obligation of Subtenant to obtain Sublandlord's approval prior to
taking any such actions.
3. RELATIONSHIP WITH MASTER LANDLORD
3.1 EFFECT OF SUBLANDLORD DEFAULT UNDER MASTER LEASE. If
Sublandlord defaults in the performance of its obligations under the Master
Lease, Master Landlord may, without limiting its other rights and remedies, by
notice to Sublandlord and
2
Subtenant, elect to receive and collect, directly from Subtenant, all rent and
any other sums owing and to be owed under the Sublease, as further set forth in
Section 3.2 below.
3.2 MASTER LANDLORD'S ELECTION TO RECEIVE RENTS. Master Landlord
will not, as a result of the Sublease, or as a result of the collection of
rents or any other sums from Subtenant under Section 3.1 above, be liable to
Subtenant for any failure of Sublandlord to perform any obligation of
Sublandlord under the Sublease.
Sublandlord irrevocably authorizes and directs Subtenant, on
receipt of any written notice from Master Landlord stating that a default
exists in the performance of Sublandlord's obligations under the Master Lease,
to pay to Master Landlord the rents and any other sums due and to become due
under the Sublease. Sublandlord agrees that Subtenant has the right to rely on
any such statement from Master Landlord, and that Subtenant will pay those
rents and other sums to Master Landlord without any obligation or right to
inquire as to whether a default exists and despite any notice or claim from
Sublandlord to the contrary. Sublandlord will not have any right or claim
against Subtenant for those rents or other sums paid by Subtenant to Master
Landlord. Master Landlord will credit Sublandlord with any rent received by
Master Landlord under this assignment, but the acceptance of any payment on
account of rent from Subtenant as the result of a default by Sublandlord will
not: (a) be an attornment by Master Landlord to Subtenant or by Subtenant to
Master Landlord; (b) be a waiver by Master Landlord of any provision of the
Master Lease; or (c) release Sublandlord from any liability under the terms,
agreements, or conditions of the Master Lease. No payment of rent by Subtenant
directly to Master Landlord, regardless of the circumstances or reasons for
that payment, will be deemed an attornment by Subtenant to Master Landlord in
the absence of a specific written agreement signed by Master Landlord to that
effect.
3.3 MASTER LANDLORD'S ELECTION OF TENANT'S ATTORNMENT. In the
event the Master Lease is terminated prior to the expiration of the term of the
Sublease, Master Landlord shall have the right, pursuant to notice to
Subtenant, to succeed to Sublandlord's interest in the Sublease and cause
Subtenant to attorn to Master Landlord. Master Landlord will assume the
obligation of Sublandlord under the Sublease from the time of the exercise of
the option, but Master Landlord will not be:
(a) liable for any rent paid by Subtenant to Sublandlord
more than one month in advance, or any security deposit paid by Subtenant to
Sublandlord;
(b) liable for any act or commission of Sublandlord under
the Master Lease or for any default of Sublandlord under the Sublease which
occurred prior to the Master Landlord's assumption;
(c) subject to any defenses or offsets that Subtenant may
have against Sublandlord which arose prior to Master Landlord's assumption; or
(d) bound by any changes or modifications made to the
Sublease without the written consent of Master Landlord.
4. CONSIDERATION FOR SUBLEASE. Sublandlord and Subtenant represent
and warrant that there are no additional payments of rent or any other
consideration of any type which has been paid or is payable by Subtenant to
Sublandlord in connection with the Sublease, other than as disclosed in the
Sublease.
5. GENERAL PROVISIONS
5.1 BROKERAGE COMMISSION. Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that
Master Landlord will not be liable for any brokerage commission or finder's fee
in connection with the consummation of the Sublease or this Agreement.
Sublandlord and Subtenant will protect, defend, indemnify, and hold Master
Landlord harmless from any brokerage commission or finder's fee in connection
with the consummation of the Sublease or this Agreement, and from any cost or
expense (including attorney fees) incurred by Master Landlord in resisting any
claim for any such brokerage commission or finder's fee. The provisions of this
Section 5.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Sublease
and this Agreement.
5.2 NOTICE. Any notice that may or must be given by any party
under this Agreement will be delivered (i) personally, (ii) by certified mail,
return receipt requested, or (iii) by a nationally recognized overnight
courier, addressed to the party to whom it is intended. Any notice given to the
Master Landlord, Sublandlord or Subtenant shall be sent to the respective
address set forth on the signature page below, or to such other address as that
party may designate for service of notice by a notice given in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 5.2.
3
5.3 CONTROLLING LAW. The terms and provisions of this Agreement will be
construed in accordance with, and will be governed by, the laws of the State of
California.
5.4 ENTIRE AGREEMENT; WAIVER. This Agreement constitutes the final,
complete and exclusive statement between the parties to this Agreement
pertaining to the terms of Master Landlord's consent to the Sublease, supersedes
all prior and contemporaneous understandings or agreements of the parties, and
is binding on and inures to the benefit of their respective heirs,
representatives, successors and assigns.
5.5 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; ATTORNEY FEES. If any party commences litigation
against any other party for the specific performance of this Agreement, for
damages for the breach hereof or otherwise for enforcement of any remedy
hereunder, the parties waive any right to a trial by jury and, in the event of
any commencement of litigation, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
recover from the applicable party such costs and reasonable attorney fees as may
have been incurred.
5.6 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed and acknowledged in two
or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of
which, when taken together, shall constitute but one agreement.
5.7 BONUS RENT. PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPH 9.b OF THE MASTER LEASE, SUBLANDLORD

2. PREMISES. Sublessor hereby subleases to Sublessee and Sublessee hereby
subleases from Sublessor for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the
conditions set forth herein, that certain real property, including all
improvements therein, and commonly known by the xxxxxx xxxxxxx xx Xxxxx 000,
0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx located in the County of San Diego, State of California and
generally described as (describe briefly the nature of the property)
approximately 3,795 square feet of office space. ("Premises").
3. TERM.
3.1 TERM. The term of this Sublease shall be for twenty-one and
one-half (20 & 1/2) months commencing on October 16, 2000 and ending on June
30, 2002 unless sooner terminated pursuant to any provision hereof.
3.2 DELAY IN COMMENCEMENT. Sublessor agrees to use its best
commercially reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Premises by the
commencement date. If, despite said efforts, Sublessor is unable to deliver
possession as agreed, Sublessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor,
nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Sublease. Sublessee shall
not, however, be obligated to pay Rent or perform its other obligations until
it receives possession of the Premises. If possession is not delivered within
sixty days after the commencement date, Sublessee may, at its option, by notice
in writing within ten days after the end of such sixty day period, cancel this
Sublease, in which event the Parties shall be discharged from all obligations
hereunder. If such written notice is not received by Sublessor within said ten
day period, Sublessee's right to cancel shall terminate. Except as otherwise
provided, if possession is not tendered to Sublessee when required and
Sublessee does not terminate this Sublease, as aforesaid, any period of rent
abatement that Sublessee would otherwise have enjoyed shall run from the date
of delivery of possession and continue for a period equal to what Sublessee
would otherwise have enjoyed under the terms hereof, but minus any days of
delay caused by the acts or omissions of Sublessee. If possession is not
delivered within 120 days after the commencement date, this Sublease shall
automatically terminate unless the Parties agree, in writing, to the contrary.
4. RENT.
4.1 BASE RENT. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor as Base Rent for the
Premises equal monthly payments of $*________ in advance, on the first (1st) day
of each month of the term hereof. Sublessee shall pay Sublessor upon the
execution hereof $3,890.00 as Base Rent for Oct. 16, 2000 - Oct. 31, 2000 *Oct.

$8,159.25/mo. Base Rent for any period during the term hereof which is for less
than one month shall be a pro rata portion of the monthly installment.
4.2 RENT DEFINED. All monetary obligations of Sublessee to Sublessor
under the terms of this Sublease (except for the Security Deposit) are deemed to
be rent ("RENT"). Rent shall be payable in lawful money of the United States to

this Sublease, Sublessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said
deposit for the payment of any Rent or other charge in default or for the
payment of any other sum to which Sublessor may become obligated by reason of
Sublessee's default, or to compensate Sublessor for any loss or damage which
Sublessor may suffer thereby. If Sublessor so uses or applies all or any
portion of said deposit, Sublessee shall within ten days after written demand
therefore forward to Sublessor an amount sufficient to restore said Deposit to
the full amount provided for herein and Sublessee's failure to do so shall be a
material breach of this Sublease. Sublessor shall not be required to keep said
Deposit separate from its general accounts. If Sublessee performs all of
Sublessee's obligations hereunder, said Deposit, or so much thereof as has not
therefore been applied by Sublessor, shall be returned, without payment of
interest to Sublessee (or at Sublessor's option, to the last assignee, if any,
of Sublessee's interest hereunder) at the expiration of the term hereof, and
after Sublessee has vacated the Premises. No trust relationship is created
herein between Sublessor and Sublessee with respect to said Security Deposit.

Default shall occur in the performance of Sublessor's Obligations under the
Master Lease, that Sublessor may receive, collect and enjoy the Rent accruing
