LEASE
By this Lease Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord the Project as set forth and described on the Reference Pages (the “Premises”). The Reference Pages, including all terms defined thereon, are incorporated as part of this Lease. The Premises are demised and let subject to (i) the existing state of title of any of the Premises, including all covenants, restrictions, reservations, liens, conditions and easements and other encumbrances of records as of the Commencement Date (collectively, “Permitted Encumbrances”), (ii) any state of facts which an accurate survey or physical inspection of the Premises might show as of the Commencement Date, (iii) all Regulations (defined below), and (iv) the condition of the Premises as of the Commencement Date, without representation or warranty by Landlord. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that pursuant to certain permits issued by the California Department of Transportation (“CalTrans”), the Project has use of a tunnel connecting the Project to certain real property located south of Highway 84 (the “Tunnel”). Throughout the Term, Tenant shall have use of the Tunnel, subject to any terms, conditions and limitations imposed by CalTrans and any Regulations on such use of the Tunnel. None of Landlord, the Landlord Entities and any parties claiming by or through Landlord or any of the Landlord Entities shall have the right to use the Tunnel during the Term.
1. USE AND RESTRICTIONS ON USE.
1.1 The Premises are to be used solely for the Permitted Use. Tenant shall not allow the Premises to be used for any unlawful purpose or commit any waste. Tenant shall comply with all federal, state and city laws, codes, ordinances, rules and regulations (collectively, “Regulations”) applicable to the use of the Premises and its occupancy, or to the use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation, maintenance, alteration, repair or restoration of any of the Premises and with any easement agreement, covenants, restrictions and conditions, declarations, licenses and other agreements listed as Permitted Encumbrances or as may hereafter affect the Premises (collectively, “Easement Agreements”) even if compliance therewith necessitates structural changes or improvements or results in interference with the use or enjoyment of any of the Premises and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders and directions for the correction, prevention and abatement of any violations in the Building or appurtenant land, caused or permitted by, or resulting from the use by, Tenant, or in or upon, or in connection with, the Premises, all at Tenant’s sole expense. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall alter, modify, amend or terminate any Easement Agreement, give any consent or approval thereunder, or enter into any new Easement Agreement without, in each case, the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall not be bound by any alterations, modification or amendments to any Easement Agreement or any new Easement Agreements entered into without Tenant’s consent. Landlord hereby acknowledges that Tenant may desire from time to time during the Term to apply for entitlements, seek rezoning, or otherwise endeavor to negotiate agreements with the governmental entities having jurisdiction over the Project, including seeking modifications to the current conditional development permit issued by the City of Menlo Park necessary to increase the number of employees and/or vehicle trips allowed on the Premises (collectively, the “Entitlements”). Tenant shall obtain any Entitlements at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, subject to the limitations set forth herein. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of any Entitlements that Tenant intends to seek for the Project, and thereafter Tenant shall keep Landlord apprised in writing of the status of its efforts in this regard on a reasonably regular basis (and in no event less frequently than every ninety (90) days during any time that Tenant is seeking Entitlements hereunder). Tenant shall not seek any Entitlements or modifications to any Entitlements which will have a material adverse effect on the value of the Project without Landlord’s consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that, Landlord hereby consents to modifications to the current conditional development permit issued by the City of Menlo Park necessary to increase the number of employees and/or vehicle trips allowed on the Premises (including approving any mitigation measures or conditions of approval in connection therewith). Landlord shall respond to any such request for consent within ten (10) business days after receipt of request. If Landlord fails to respond within such ten (10) business day period, then Tenant may deliver a second written notice to Landlord requesting such consent which notice shall state in bold and all caps, “LANDLORD’S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE LANDLORD’S CONSENT TO THE MATTERS SET FORTH HEREIN.” If Landlord fails to respond to such second written notice within five (5) business days after receipt thereof, then Landlord shall be deemed to have consented to such request. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant to execute any applications for permits or approvals or other documents or consents related to the Entitlements (such as development agreements) reasonably required by Tenant in connection with modifying any existing Entitlements or seeking new Entitlements to the extent permitted hereunder; provided that such cooperation shall be at no cost or expense to Landlord or any Landlord Entities. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing of any Entitlements obtained by Tenant with respect to the Project. Landlord shall not modify any Entitlements or enter into any new Entitlements in any manner during the Term without the prior written consent of Tenant to be granted or withheld in Tenant’s sole and absolute discretion.
3
Tenant covenants by and for himself or herself, his or her heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through him or her, that this Lease is made and accepted upon and subject to the following conditions: That there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of any persons or group of persons, on account of race, color, creed, marital status, ancestry, religion, sex, or national origin, in the leasing, subleasing, transferring, use, occupancy, tenure, or enjoyment, of the Premises herein leased, nor shall the Tenant himself, or any person claiming under or through him, establish or permit any such practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use, occupancy, or tenants, sublessees, subtenants, or vendees in the Premises of herein leased.
Reference is made to Section II.C.2 of that certain San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission Permit No. 26-78 issued on December 1, 1978, as amended through October 20, 1994 (AMENDMENT NO. FIVE) and recorded in the Official Records of the County of San Mateo as document number 94-170831 (the “BCDC Permit”), which BCDC Permit requires express reference in this Lease, including specific reference to the public access provisions (including, without limitation, Section I.A.3, II.B, and III. B) and the parking provisions (including, without limitation, Section I.A.8, II.B.4 and III.B) thereof.
1.2 Tenant shall not, and shall not direct, suffer or permit any of its agents, contractors, employees, licensees or invitees (collectively, the “Tenant Entities”) to at any time use, store, generate, treat, discharge, disburse, handle, manufacture, transport or dispose of (collectively, “Handle”) in or about the Project (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) flammables, explosives, radioactive materials, hazardous wastes or materials, toxic wastes or materials, or other similar substances, petroleum products or derivatives or any substance subject to regulation by or under any federal, state and local laws and ordinances relating to the protection of the environment or the keeping, use or disposition of environmentally hazardous materials, substances, or wastes, presently in effect or hereafter adopted, all amendments to any of them, and all rules and regulations issued pursuant to any of such laws or ordinances (collectively, “Environmental Laws”) in any manner not fully in compliance with all Environmental Laws, in, on or about the Project; provided that Tenant shall always Handle any such Hazardous Materials in a safe and lawful manner and never allow such Hazardous Materials to contaminate the Project or appurtenant land or the environment. Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold each and all of the Landlord Entities (as defined in Article 29) harmless from and against any and all loss, claims, liability or costs (including court costs and attorney’s fees) incurred by reason of any actual or asserted failure of Tenant to fully comply with all applicable Environmental Laws with respect to the Project, or the presence, Handling, use or disposition in or from the Premises during the Term of any Hazardous Materials by Tenant or any Tenant Entity (even though permissible under all applicable Environmental Laws or the provisions of this Lease), or by reason of any actual or asserted failure of Tenant to keep, observe, or perform any provision of this Section 1.2. Tenant shall provide Landlord a copy of any Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and any other permits, applications or written responses completed in connection with Tenant’s or any Tenant Entity’s Handling of Hazardous Materials at, on our about the Project and prepared by or on behalf of Tenant and furnished to applicable governmental agencies as required by or otherwise in compliance with any applicable Regulations.
1.3 Subject to the terms of Article 17, upon prior written notice from Landlord, Tenant shall permit such persons as Landlord may designate from time to time (“Site Reviewers”) to visit the Premises, once per year or at any other time that Landlord, in its sole discretion, reasonably believes that the Premises or the Project have become contaminated with Hazardous Materials that must be removed under applicable Regulations or otherwise in breach of the provisions of this Lease (each, an “Environmental Violation”), and perform environmental site investigations and assessments (“Site Assessments”) on the Premises for the purpose of determining whether there exists any Environmental Violation or any condition which could result in any Environmental Violation. Such Site Assessments may include both above and below the ground testing for Environmental Violations and such other tests as may be necessary, in the opinion of the Site Reviewers, to conduct the Site Assessments. Tenant shall supply to the Site Reviewers such historical and operational information regarding the Premises as may be reasonably requested by the Site Reviewers to facilitate the Site Assessments, and shall make available for meetings with the Site Reviewers appropriate personnel having knowledge of such matters. The cost of performing any Site Assessment that reveals any Environmental Violation shall be paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s written demand, together with reasonable supporting documentation of such cost and any other Site Assessments performed by Landlord shall be at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and in the event of any Environmental Violation by Tenant, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, promptly perform any required or necessary investigation, repair, cleanup, or detoxification of the Premises and the Project to bring the same to its condition prior to the occurrence of the Environmental Violation, but in no event less than good condition.

2. TERM.
2.1 The Term of this Lease shall begin on the date as shown on the References Pages as the Commencement Date (“Commencement Date”), and shall terminate on the date as shown on the Reference Pages as the Termination Date (“Termination Date”), unless sooner terminated by the provisions of this Lease.
2.2 Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted possession of the Premises in its “as is” condition and configuration as of the Commencement Date. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Commencement Date shall not be delayed for any reason, including but not limited to, any holding over by prior occupants, and no such holding over shall subject Landlord to any liability for any loss or damage resulting therefrom.
2.3 This is a net lease and all rent and other charges payable hereunder shall be paid without notice or demand, set off, counterclaim, recoupment, abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution, deduction, reduction or defense except as expressly set forth herein.
3. RENT.
3.1 Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the Annual Rent in effect from time to time by paying the Monthly Installment of Rent then in effect on or before the first day of each full calendar month during the Term, except that the first month’s rent shall be paid upon the execution of this Lease. The Monthly Installment of Rent in effect at any time shall be one-twelfth (1/12) of the Annual Rent in effect at such time. Rent for any period during the Term which is less than a full month shall be a prorated portion of the Monthly Installment of Rent based upon the number of days in such month. Said rent shall be paid to Landlord, without deduction or offset and without notice or demand, at the Rent Payment Address, as set forth on the Reference Pages, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. Unless specified in this Lease to the contrary, all amounts and sums payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease shall be deemed additional rent.
3.2 Tenant recognizes that late payment of any rent or other sum due under this Lease will result in administrative expense to Landlord, the extent of which additional expense is extremely difficult and economically impractical to ascertain. Tenant therefore agrees that if rent or any other sum is not paid when due and payable pursuant to this Lease, such late payment will accrue interest at the rate of five percent (5%) plus the Prime Rate (as hereinafter defined) per annum from the date due until paid; provided however, that the foregoing interest shall not apply to the first such late payment in any twelve (12) month period of the Term of this Lease until following written notice to Tenant and the expiration of five (5) days thereafter without cure. The provisions of this Section 3.2 in no way relieve Tenant of the obligation to pay rent or other payments on or before the date on which they are due, nor do the terms of this Section 3.2 in any way affect Landlord’s remedies pursuant to Article 19 of this Lease in the event said rent or other payment is unpaid after date due. For purposes hereof, the “Prime Rate” shall be the per annum interest rate publicly announced by Bank of America as its prime or base rate (or, if Bank of America ceases to exist or to announce a prime or base rate, the prime or base rate of another national banking association).
4. ADDITIONAL RENT.
4.1 Tenant shall pay as additional rent the following: (a) Landlord’s costs and expenses of maintaining the insurance as set forth in Section 11.4 below (“Insurance Costs”), (b) all Taxes (defined below) incurred on the Project during the Term, and (c) a property management fee equal to $50,000 per Lease Year (the “Management Fee”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall only be liable to reimburse Landlord for Insurance Costs to the extent Landlord’s insurance is in commercially reasonable amounts and of types of insurance coverage, consistent with Landlord’s investment manager’s standard risk management program and which at the time is usual and commonly obtained by institutional landlords with respect to properties similar in type of project size, nature, use and location to the Project. “Taxes” shall be defined as real estate taxes and any other taxes, charges and assessments which are levied with respect to the Project or the land appurtenant to the Project, or with respect to any improvements, fixtures and equipment or other property of Landlord including the Tenant Improvements, real or personal, located in the Project and used in connection with the operation of the Project and said land, any payments to any ground lessor in reimbursement of payments of Taxes made by such lessor. For purposes of this Lease, each fiscal year (as determined by Landlord from time to time) falling partly or wholly within the Term shall be a “Lease Year.” Taxes shall not include any corporate franchise, or estate, inheritance or net income tax, or documentary transfer tax (unless such taxes are in lieu of or a substitute for any other tax, assessment or other charge upon or with respect to the Premises which, if it were in effect, would be payable by Tenant under the provisions hereof or by the terms of such tax, assessment or other charge), or any taxes to be paid by Tenant pursuant to Article 28.
5
4.2 On or before the commencement of each Lease Year, Landlord shall provide to Tenant Landlord’s good faith written estimate of the monthly installment of Insurance Costs and Taxes payable under Section 4.1 for such Lease Year or portion thereof. Landlord will give Tenant written notification of the amount of such estimate and Tenant agrees that it will pay, concurrently with Tenant’s payment of each Monthly Installment of Rent due in such Lease Year, additional rent equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the amount of such estimate and $4,166.66 per month for the Management Fee. Within ninety (90) days after the end of each Lease Year, Landlord shall deliver a written notice to Tenant setting forth the actual determination of Tenant’s liability for Taxes and Insurance Costs in the previous Lease Year and when Tenant is so notified in writing, then:
4.2.1 If the total additional rent Tenant actually paid pursuant to Section 4.2 is less than the actual Taxes and Insurance Costs, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent in one lump sum within thirty (30) days of receipt of Landlord’s xxxx therefor such deficiency; and
4.2.2 If the total additional rent Tenant actually paid pursuant to Section 4.2 is more than the actual Taxes and Insurance Costs, then Landlord shall credit the difference against the then next due payments to be made by Tenant under this Article 4, or, if this Lease has terminated, refund the difference in cash.
4.3 If the Commencement Date is other than January 1 or if the Termination Date is other than December 31, Tenant’s liability for Taxes and Insurance Costs and the Management Fee for the year in which said date occurs shall be prorated based upon a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year. Even though the Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the premises, when the final determination is made of the actual Taxes and Insurance Costs for the year in which this Lease terminated, Tenant shall pay any difference due over the estimated Taxes and Insurance Costs paid; and conversely any overpayment, less any amounts due Landlord under this Lease, shall be rebated to Tenant.
4.4 Tenant shall, before interest or penalties are due thereon, pay and discharge all charges for (a) any Easement Agreement or other agreements maintained for the benefit of any of the Premises during the Term, (b) all assessments and levies, all sewer, permit, inspection and license fees, all rents and charges for water, sewer, utility and communication services relating to the any of Premises during the Term, all other public charges whether of a like or different nature, even if unforeseen or extraordinary, imposed upon or assessed against (i) Tenant, (ii) Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Project, (iii) any of the Project, and (iv) Landlord as a result of or arising in respect of the ownership, occupancy, use or possession of any of the Project or any activity conducted on, in or about any of the Project (collectively, the “Impositions”). Impositions shall not include any costs incurred by Landlord related to the sale, financing or ground leasing of the Project or any portion thereof by Landlord.
4.5 In addition to Tenant’s payment of Taxes, Insurance Costs, the Management Fee and Impositions hereunder, Tenant shall pay and discharge, as additional rent, any costs, expenses and fees of Tenant and Landlord which are incurred in connection or associated with any act undertaken by Landlord at the request of Tenant within thirty (30) days of demand together with reasonable supporting documentation; provided, that, (i) this Section 4.5 shall not supersede any other express provision of this Lease regarding reimbursement of costs incurred by Landlord (e.g. Section 6.2 regarding reimbursement of Review Fees (as hereinafter defined)) and (ii) Landlord shall provide Tenant at least ten (10) days advance notice that Landlord intends to incur costs, expenses or fees as the result of any act undertaken at the request of Tenant, which costs, expenses or fees Landlord intends to seek reimbursement for under this Section 4.5 and Tenant may elect that Landlord not undertake the act in question or incur the applicable costs, expenses or fees.
4.6 During the Term, Tenant may review, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, the books and records supporting Landlord’s determination of actual Taxes and Insurance Costs for any Lease Year in an office of Landlord or Landlord’s agent, during normal business hours, upon giving Landlord at lease five (5) days advance written notice, subject to execution of a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement. If Landlord and Tenant determine that actual Taxes or Insurance Costs for the Project for the year in question were less than stated by more than five percent (5%), Landlord, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of invoices therefor from Tenant, shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable amounts paid by Tenant to third parties in connection with such review by Tenant.
4.7 Tenant, at its sole cost, will have the exclusive right, at any time during the Term, to seek a reduction in the assessed valuation of the Premises for tax assessment purposes and/or any increase in the tax rate applicable to the Premises. If Tenant elects to contest the Taxes, Tenant may provide Landlord notice from time to time in writing (a “Tax Dispute Notice”) of any such disputed matters. In such event, Landlord will pay the Taxes under protest. Landlord will appoint Tenant as its agent for the purpose of obtaining information and other data from the County or City assessor and instituting and maintaining any proceeding or contest of Taxes. Landlord will not be required to join in any proceeding or contest brought by Tenant, unless the provisions of any Regulations require that the proceeding or contest be brought by or
6
in the name of Landlord or owner of the Premises, in which case, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to contest those matters set forth in the applicable Tax Dispute Notice on behalf of Tenant. Upon reasonable request from Tenant, Landlord shall furnish, on a timely basis, such data, documents, information and assistance and make such appearances as may be reasonably required by Tenant. After the effective date of any reduction in value or tax rate applicable to the Premises, Tenant will be entitled to pay Taxes based on such reduced valuation or tax rate in accordance with the terms of this Lease. Tenant shall have the right to settle or compromise any such contest through negotiations. Tenant shall pay any and all losses, judgments, decrees and costs and expenses in connection with any such contest and shall, promptly after the final determination of such contest, fully pay and discharge the amounts which shall be levied, assessed, charged or imposed or be determined to be payable therein or in connection therewith, together with all penalties, fines, interest, costs and expenses thereof or in connection therewith, and perform all acts the performance of which shall be ordered or decreed as a result thereof.

Landlord shall deliver a copy of real estate tax bills or notifications of valuation increases to Tenant promptly after receipt of same by Landlord. No such contest shall subject Landlord to the risk of any civil or criminal liability.
4.8 If, by law, Landlord may elect to cause any special assessment applicable to the Project to be paid in installments (whether or not interest accrues on the unpaid balance), at Tenant’s option, Landlord shall so elect to cause such special assessment to be paid in installments as they become due.
4.9 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and subject to the terms of this Section 4.9, Tenant shall not be required to pay in any Lease Year during the first ten (10) years of the initial Term, any increase in Taxes caused by any change of ownership (within the meaning of Sections 60 and 61, Division 1, Chapter 2 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code or any successor provision) of all or any portion of the Project (a “Prop 13 Event”) that occurs after the Commencement Date and before the expiration of the tenth (10th) Lease Year.

If Tenant fails to cure such failure as provided above, or in the event of an emergency which materially adversely affects all or any part of the Premises, Landlord may, at Landlord’s election, cure such failure at Tenant’s cost and expense, and the expenses thereof incurred by Landlord shall be reimbursed as additional rent within thirty (30) days after submission of a xxxx or statement therefore, together with reasonable supporting documentation.

Each party shall obtain any special endorsements required by their insurer to evidence compliance with the aforementioned waiver.
13. SERVICES AND UTILITIES. Tenant shall procure and pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, trash, recycling, landscape maintenance, parking lot sweeping and resurfacing, elevator, security, communications, janitorial, pest control, telephone, sewer, sprinkler system charges and other utilities and services used on or from the Premises, together with any taxes, penalties, and surcharges or the like pertaining thereto and any maintenance charges for utilities. Tenant shall furnish all electric light bulbs, tubes and ballasts, battery packs for emergency lighting and fire extinguishers.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Article 12 to the contrary, Tenant shall not be required to waive any claims against Landlord (other than for any special or consequential damages and for loss or damage to Tenant’s business) where such interruption or failure in utility services is due solely to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any of its agents, contractors or employees.
14. HOLDING OVER.
14.1 Subject to Section 14.2 below, Tenant shall pay Landlord for each day Tenant retains possession of the Premises or part of them after termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise at the rate (“Holdover Rate”) which shall be one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount of the Monthly Installment of Rent for the last period prior to the date of such termination plus all monthly additional rent payable under Section 4.1, prorated on a daily basis. If Landlord gives notice to Tenant of Landlord’s election to such effect, such holding over shall constitute renewal of this Lease for a period from month to month at the Holdover Rate, but if the Landlord does not so elect, no such renewal shall result notwithstanding acceptance by Landlord of any sums due hereunder after such termination; and instead, a tenancy at sufferance at the Holdover Rate shall be deemed to have been created. In any event, no provision of this Article 14 shall be deemed to waive Landlord’s right of reentry or any other right under this Lease or at law.
14.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 14.1 above, so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Tenant shall have the right to holdover (the “Permitted Holdover”) in the Premises only for up to six (6) consecutive one-month periods, commencing as of the first calendar month immediately following the expiration of the then current Term, subject to the remaining terms of this Section 14.2, if Tenant delivers to Landlord prior written notice of Tenant’s intent to so occupy the Premises (“Tenant’s Holdover Notice”) on or before the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the then current Term. Tenant’s Holdover Notice shall specify the period of time (not to exceed six (6) consecutive months) that Tenant shall holdover in the Premises in accordance with this Section 14.2 (the “Permitted Holdover Period”). If Tenant engages in a Permitted Holdover in accordance with this Section 14.2, then during the Permitted Holdover Period Tenant shall occupy the Premises in its as-is condition and configuration subject to all the terms and conditions of this Lease, provided that during the Permitted Holdover Period, Tenant shall pay rent at the rate which shall be one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the amount of the Monthly Installment of Rent for the last period prior to the date of such termination plus all monthly additional rent payable under Section 4.1, prorated on a daily basis,. If Tenant fails to timely deliver Tenant’s Holdover Notice as set forth above and holds over in the Premises or any portion thereof upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or if Tenant engages in a Permitted Holdover and fails to vacate and surrender the Premises on or prior to expiration or earlier termination of the Permitted Holdover Period, Tenant shall be deemed in holdover of the Premises and such holdover shall be subject to the provisions of Section 14.1 above. Nothing herein shall grant Tenant the right to hold over or otherwise occupy the Premises at any time following the expiration or earlier termination of the Permitted Holdover Period.
15. SUBORDINATION. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to ground or underlying leases and to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust now or hereafter placed on, against or affecting the Project, Landlord’s interest or estate in the Project, or any ground or underlying lease (each, a “Mortgage”); provided, however, that if the lessor, mortgagee, trustee, or holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust (each, a “Lender”) elects to have Tenant’s interest in this Lease be superior to any such instrument, then, by notice to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed superior, whether this Lease
12
was executed before or after said instrument; provided, further, that Tenant’s agreement to subordinate this Lease to any Mortgage shall be subject to Tenant’s receipt of an SNDA Agreement (as hereinafter defined). An “SNDA Agreement” shall mean an agreement between Landlord, Tenant and Lender reasonably acceptable to Tenant, which provides, among other things, that, so long as Tenant is paying the rent due under the Lease and is not otherwise in default under the Lease beyond any applicable cure period, its right to possession and the other terms of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect. The SNDA Agreement may provide that (a) neither mortgagee nor any successor-in-interest shall be bound by (i) any payment of the Monthly Installment of Rent or additional rent or other sum due under this Lease for more than one (1) month in advance and (b) neither mortgagee nor any successor-in-interest will be liable for the return of any security deposit, except to the extent such deposits have been received by mortgagee. Any SNDA Agreement shall expressly provide that (i) upon any party succeeding to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, such party shall be liable for the payment of any unpaid portion of the Allowance (as defined in the Work Letter), (ii) the provisions of this Lease regarding any Casualty or Condemnation (each as hereinafter defined) and the adjustment, negotiation, settlement and payment of any Net Award (as hereinafter defined) shall control not withstanding any conflicting provisions in the Mortgage, and (iii) upon any party succeeding to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, any accumulated amounts which Tenant may have to set-off against rent and other amounts due under this Lease pursuant to Section 19.8 below shall continue in full force and effect and be binding against such party and Tenant shall have the continued right to set-off such amounts against rent and other amounts due under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Purchase Options and Right of First Offer be subordinate to the lien of any Mortgage and Tenant shall not be required to subordinate the Purchase Options and Right of First Offer to the lien of any Mortgage. Landlord represents and warrants that as of the Commencement Date, the only Lender having a Mortgage is Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A.
16. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with all the rules and regulations as set forth in Exhibit C to this Lease (the “Rules and Regulations”). To the extent of any conflict between the Rules and Regulations and the terms and conditions of this Lease, the terms and conditions of this Lease shall control.
17. REENTRY BY LANDLORD.
17.1 Landlord reserves and shall at all times have the right to re-enter the Premises to inspect the same, to show said Premises to prospective purchasers, Lenders or tenants, to verify compliance or non-compliance by Tenant with its obligations hereunder and the existence or non-existence of an Event of Default or event which with the passage of time and/or notice would constitute an Event of Default, and to exercise any rights and to take such other action with respect to the Premises as is permitted by any provision of this Lease, without abatement of rent. Landlord agrees that except in the event Landlord and Tenant otherwise mutually agree to the contrary, Landlord shall not show the Premises to prospective tenants except during the last twelve (12) months of the then current Term of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, except (i) to the extent requested by Tenant, and/or (ii) in the event of an emergency, Landlord shall provide to Tenant at least one business day’s prior written notice before Landlord enters the interior portion of the Premises and perform such entry during normal business hours (i.e. 9:00 a.m to 6:00 p.m. Mondays through Fridays). Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business and any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises occasioned by any action of Landlord authorized by this Article 17. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in emergency situations, as determined by Landlord, Landlord shall exercise reasonable efforts to perform any entry into the Premises in a manner that is reasonably designed to minimize interference with the operation of Tenant’s business in the Premises. Except in the case of an emergency where necessary to prevent imminent damage to persons or the Building, Landlord and Landlord’s representatives shall comply with Tenant’s commercially reasonable security and confidentiality requirements with respect to such entry. Tenant shall be entitled to have an employee of Tenant accompany the person(s) entering the interior portions of the Premises, provided Tenant makes such employee available at the time Landlord or such other party desires to enter the Premises. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that due to the nature of Tenant’s business certain portions of the Premises may be reasonably designated by Tenant from time to time as highly sensitive and confidential (the “High Sensitivity Areas”). Landlord shall not be permitted to enter any High Sensitivity Areas except in the case of an emergency.

19.1 Upon the occurrence of any Event or Events of Default under this Lease, whether enumerated in Article 18 or not, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice (except as expressly prescribed herein) or demand whatsoever:
19.1.1 Terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises and recover from Tenant an award of damages equal to the sum of the following:
19.1.1.1 The Worth at the Time of Award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination;
19.1.1.2 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 rent loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided;
19.1.1.3 The Worth at the Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rent loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided;
19.1.1.4 Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment either proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and
19.1.1.5 All such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time under applicable law.
The “Worth at the Time of Award” of the amounts referred to in parts 19.1.1.1 and 19.1.1.2 above, shall be computed by allowing interest at the lesser of a per annum rate equal to five percent (5%) plus the Prime Rate per annum. The “Worth at the Time of Award” of the amount referred to in part 19.1.1.3, above, 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%).
19.1.2 Employ the remedy described in California Civil Code § 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations); or
19.1.3 Notwithstanding Landlord’s exercise of the remedy described in California Civil Code § 1951.4 in respect of an Event or Events of Default, at such time thereafter as Landlord may elect in writing, to terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises and recover an award of damages as provided above in Section 19.1.1.
19.2 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 waiver by Landlord of any breach hereof shall be effective unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Landlord.
19.3 TENANT AND LANDLORD HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS LEASE.
15
19.4 No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord or Tenant is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing by agreement, applicable law or in equity. In addition to other remedies provided in this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief, or to a decree compelling performance of any of the covenants, agreements, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to any other remedy allowed to Landlord or Tenant at law or in equity. Forbearance by Landlord or Tenant to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such event of default.
19.5 This Article 19 shall be enforceable to the maximum extent such enforcement is not prohibited by applicable law, and the unenforceability of any portion thereof shall not thereby render unenforceable any other portion.
19.6 If legal proceedings are initiated to enforce any term of this Lease, to recover any Rent due under this Lease, for the breach of any covenant or condition of this Lease, or for the restitution of the Premises to Landlord and/or eviction of Tenant, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, as an element of its cost of suit and not as damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs to be fixed by the court.
19.7 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) cure such Event of Default at Tenant’s sole expense without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry and detainer and without incurring any liability for any damage or interruption of Tenant’s business resulting therefrom and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s demand, together with reasonably supporting documentation, as additional rent, for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, plus interest from the date of expenditure by Landlord at a rate equal to the lesser of eight percent (8%) per annum and the maximum rate permitted by Regulations.
19.8 If Landlord is obligated to pay any amount of money to Tenant pursuant to this Lease (including, without limitation, the Allowance (as defined in the Work Letter)) or the Lease Security Documents (as hereinafter defined) and Landlord fails to timely pay, such amount shall accrue interest (at a rate equal to the lesser of eight percent (8%) per annum and the maximum rate permitted by Regulations) compounded daily. Also, in addition to any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity, Tenant may deliver written notice to Landlord of such failure and if Landlord fails to pay the applicable amount to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, Tenant may immediately set-off such amount (including such interest) against rent and other amounts due under this Lease, in which case, Tenant shall provide Landlord a written notice (a “Set-Off Notice”) of such set-off (including the amount of such set-off and interest). Interest shall be calculated from the date a particular payment was due until the earlier of the date of such set-off or payment. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of a Set-Off Notice, if Landlord disputes in good faith the set-off or the amount thereof set forth in a Set-Off Notice, then Landlord may deliver written notice (an “Arbitration Notice”) to Tenant of such dispute and the matter shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Article 51 below. Landlord shall not be obligated to submit a any dispute under this Section 19.8 to arbitration and Landlord may instead pursue other remedies under this Lease or otherwise available to Landlord at law in order to resolve such dispute; provided, that, upon delivery of an Arbitration Notice, Landlord shall have irrevocably committed to arbitration in accordance with Article 51 below as the sole and exclusive means of resolving any such dispute and such arbitration shall be binding upon the parties. If following the conclusion of such arbitration it is determined that Tenant impermissibly set-off against rent and other amounts due under this Lease, then Tenant shall within thirty (30) days after the conclusion of such arbitration make a cash payment to Landlord in the amount as determined in the arbitration which Tenant impermissibly set-off (which amount shall include interest at a rate equal to the lesser of eight percent (8%) per annum and the maximum rate permitted by Regulations compounded daily from the date such off-set rent was due until paid).
19.9 In addition to Tenant’s other remedies, if Landlord fails to make any disbursement of the Allowance (as defined in the Work Letter) within thirty (30) days after receipt of a Draw Package, then after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, Tenant may deliver a written notice to Landlord of such failure which written notice must substantially state in bold and all caps “LANDLORD’S FAILURE TO MAKE A DISBURSEMENT OF THE ALLOWANCE WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER RECEIPT OF THIS NOTICE MAY RESULT IN TENANT’S EXERCISE OF THE PURCHASE OPTION”. If Landlord fails to make the applicable disbursement within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice (the “Thirty Day Cure Period”), then Tenant shall have the right to exercise the Purchase Option by providing Landlord written notice at any time prior to the earlier to occur of (x) Landlord making the applicable disbursement of the Allowance or (y) sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Thirty Day Cure Period (which notice shall specify the “Closing Date” which shall be a date within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice), in which case, the terms and conditions of Section 39 below shall apply to such exercise of the Purchase Option except (i) Tenant’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 19.9 shall be deemed to be the “Exercise Notice”, (ii) the “Closing Date” shall be the
16
date specified in Tenant’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 19.9, and (iii) Tenant shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price equal to (A) any accumulated amounts which Tenant has the right to set-off against rent and other amounts due under this Lease under Section 19.8 above, and (B) any unpaid portion of the Allowance.
20. BUSINESS DAYS. As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean a day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. In the event that the date for the performance of any covenant or obligation under this Agreement shall fall on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of the States of California, the date for performance thereof shall be extended to the next business day.
21. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord represents and warrants that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease and that Tenant, while paying the rental and performing its other covenants and agreements contained in this Lease, shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term without hindrance or molestation from Landlord subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease. Landlord shall not be liable for any interference or disturbance by other tenants or third persons, nor shall Tenant be released from any of the obligations of this Lease because of such interference or disturbance.
22. CASUALTY.
22.1 If any fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”) to the Premises occurs, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord. Tenant shall be responsible for the adjustment, collection and compromise of the Net Award (defined below) payable in connection with a Casualty; provided, that, Tenant shall not agree upon or otherwise settle the Net Award with any insurer without Landlord’s prior written consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord agrees to sign, upon the request of Tenant, any proofs of loss, receipts, vouchers and releases in connection therewith on commercially reasonable forms. Tenant shall be solely liable for the payment of any applicable deductibles. “Net Award” shall mean (a) the entire award payable to Landlord by reason of a Condemnation (defined in Section 23.1), whether pursuant to judgment, agreement or otherwise or (b) the entire net proceeds of Project Property Insurance payable by reason of a Casualty. Except as expressly set forth herein, if any Casualty shall occur, this Lease shall continue, notwithstanding such event, and there shall be no abatement or reduction of any rent. Promptly after the insurer’s acceptance of the claim, Tenant shall commence and diligently continue to restore the Premises to their value, condition and character immediately prior to such event (assuming the Premises to have been in the condition required by this Lease); provided that, Tenant shall have the right to restore Alterations paid for by Tenant but Tenant shall have no obligation to restore any Alterations paid for by Tenant (other than Restorable Alterations which in any event Tenant shall be obligated to restore). Any Net Award shall be made available to Tenant solely for the restoration of any of the Premises pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 22.2 hereof. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Restorable Alterations” shall mean those Alterations that are (i) Capital Items made at the Premises after the expiration of the initial ten (10) years of the Lease Term which Capital Items are paid for in whole or in part by Landlord as set forth in Section 7.2 of this Lease above, and (ii) repairs and replacements of the Building systems, foundation, slab, load bearing walls or other structural portions of the Buildings or roofs made by Tenant.
22.2 Unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to Sections 22.4 below, during the restoration of the Premises, Tenant shall monthly submit to Landlord the following (a “Restoration Draw Package”): (i) for informational purposes only, the schedule of values, by trade, of percentage of completion of the restoration of the Premises, detailing the portion of the work completed and the portion not completed, (ii) valid and binding executed conditional mechanic’s lien releases from all of Tenant’s contractors (along with unconditional mechanics lien releases with respect to payments made pursuant to Tenant’s prior submission hereunder), and (iii) payment receipts for items paid for since the last submittal.
22.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease as the result of any Casualty which occurred prior to the Commencement Date (a “Pre-Existing Casualty”), (ii) Tenant shall be require to perform any restoration of the Project required as the result of any Pre-Existing Casualty, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and (iii) upon receipt of Restoration Draw Package(s), Landlord shall make available to Tenant any insurance proceeds or purchase price reduction received by Landlord as the result of any Pre-Existing Casualty for the repair and maintenance of the Project.
22.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease if all of the following occur: (i) at least fifty percent (50%) of the rentable square footage of the Buildings is rendered untenantable by a Casualty; and (ii) there is less than three (3) years of the then current Term remaining on the date of such Casualty; and (iii) Tenant provides Landlord with written notice of its intent to terminate within sixty (60) days after the date of the Casualty. Landlord shall be entitled to and Tenant shall assign to Landlord all Net Awards (except the portion applicable to Alterations paid for by Tenant (other than Restorable Alterations)) upon any such termination of this Lease.
17
22.5 If Tenant terminates this Lease pursuant to Sections 22.4 above, then Tenant may remain in possession of all or any portion of the Premises, for up to one hundred eighty (180) days after such termination date (which time period shall be specifically identified by Tenant in its written termination notice), in which case, the terms and conditions of this Lease shall continue to apply to the portion of the Premises occupied by Tenant and Tenant shall pay as the Monthly Installment of Rent during such period an amount equal to the Monthly Installment of Rent payable under this Lease for the last full month prior to the date of such termination prorated based on the ratio that the rentable square footage of the Premises actually occupied by Tenant during such period bears to the total rentable square footage of the Premises prior to the occurrence of the applicable Casualty which shall be recalculated on a monthly basis during each month of such one hundred eighty (180) day period to reflect the actual rentable square footage of the Premises which Tenant continues to occupy.
22.6 In addition to Tenant’s other remedies, if any Casualty occurs which renders fifty (50%) or more of the rentable area of the Buildings unusable, then Tenant shall have the right to exercise the Purchase Option by providing Landlord written notice within sixty (60) after the occurrence of such Casualty, which notice shall specify the “Closing Date” (which shall be a date within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice), in which case, the terms and conditions of Section 39 below shall apply to such exercise of the Purchase Option except (i) Tenant’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 22.6 shall be deemed to be the “Exercise Notice”, (ii) the “Closing Date” shall be the date specified in Tenant’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 22.6, and (iii) Landlord shall assign any interest of Landlord in the Net Award to Tenant at the closing of the Purchase Option.
22.7 Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, or any similar or successor Regulations or other laws now or hereinafter in effect.

23. EMINENT DOMAIN.
23.1 If there occurs any taking or damaging of all or a portion of any of the Premises (i) in or by condemnation or other eminent domain proceedings pursuant to any Regulations, general or special, or (ii) by reason of any agreement with any condemnor in settlement of or under threat of any such condemnation or other eminent domain proceeding (each, a “Condemnation”), that is not a Total Condemnation (defined below) shall occur, this Lease shall continue, notwithstanding such event, and rent payable hereunder during the unexpired Term shall be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under the circumstances. Tenant and Landlord, promptly upon receiving any notice or knowledge of the institution of or intention to institute any proceeding for Condemnation (a “Condemnation Notice”), shall notify the other party thereof. Tenant shall be entitled to participate with Landlord in any adjustment, collection and compromise of the Net Award (defined below) payable in connection with a Condemnation and Landlord shall not agree upon or otherwise settle the Net Award without Tenant’s prior written consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. No agreement with any condemnor in settlement or under threat of any Condemnation shall be made by Tenant or Landlord without the written consent of the other party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Subject to the provisions of this Section 23.1, Tenant hereby irrevocably assigns to Landlord any award or payment to which Tenant is or may be entitled by reason of any Condemnation, whether the same shall be paid or payable for Tenant’s leasehold interest hereunder or otherwise; but nothing in this Lease shall impair Tenant’s right to any award or payment on account of Tenant’s trade fixtures, equipment or other tangible property which is not part of the base Building systems and equipment, moving expenses or loss of business, if available, and the value of tenant improvements and Alterations that are paid for by Tenant.
23.2 Promptly after Landlord’s receipt of the Net Award, Tenant shall commence and diligently continue to restore the Premises as nearly as possible to their value, condition and character immediately prior to such event (assuming the Premises to have been in the condition required by this Lease); provided that, Tenant shall have no obligation to restore any Alterations paid for by Tenant. During such restoration, Tenant may submit Restoration Draw Packages to Landlord from time to time. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of any such Restoration Draw Package, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the amounts set forth therein up to the amount of the Net Award received in connection with the applicable Condemnation. Any condemnation award paid to Landlord hereunder and a part of a Net Award that is not used by Tenant in restoration of the Premises (including Restorable Alterations) shall be the property of Landlord. For purposes of clarification, Tenant shall have no obligation to expend additional sums above and beyond any Net Award actually received by Tenant in the restoration of the Premises.
18
23.3 If a Condemnation in which more than fifty percent (50%) or more of the Premises are taken or which otherwise materially impairs access to the Premises or parking thereon (a “Total Condemnation”) occurs, Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by providing written notice to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the date of the Casualty, in which case, Tenant shall have no obligation to restore the Premises. If Tenant terminates this Lease pursuant to this Section 23.3, then Tenant may remain in possession of all or any portion of the Premises not so taken, for up to one hundred eighty (180) days after such termination date (which time period shall be specifically identified by Tenant in its written termination notice), in which case, the terms and conditions of this Lease shall continue to apply to the portion of the Premises occupied by Tenant, and Tenant shall pay as the Monthly Installment of Rent during such period an amount equal to the Monthly Installment of Rent payable under this Lease for the last full month prior to the date of such termination prorated based on the ratio that the rentable square footage of the Premises actually occupied by Tenant during such period bears to the total rentable square footage of the Premises prior to the occurrence of the Total Condemnation which shall be recalculated on a monthly basis during each month of such one hundred eighty (180) day period to reflect the actual rentable square footage of the Premises which Tenant continues to occupy.
23.4 In addition to Tenant’s other remedies, if a Total Condemnation occurs, then Tenant shall have the right to exercise the Purchase Option by providing Landlord written notice within sixty (60) after the occurrence of such Total Condemnation (which notice shall specify the “Closing Date” which shall be a date within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice), in which case, the terms and conditions of Section 39 below shall apply to such exercise of the Purchase Option except (i) Tenant’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 23.4 shall be deemed to be the “Exercise Notice”, (ii) the “Closing Date” shall be date specified in Tenant’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 23.4, and (iii) Landlord shall assign the Net Award to Tenant at the closing of the Purchase Option.
23.5 Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar or successor Regulations or other laws now or hereinafter in effect.
24. SALE BY LANDLORD. In event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the Project, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any liability upon any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, contained in this Lease in favor of Tenant to the extent arising or required to be performed after the date of such transfer, and in such event Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease for any liability upon any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, contained in this Lease in favor of Tenant to the extent arising or required to be performed after the date of such transfer, provided that, any successor shall have assumed or otherwise become liable for all of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease either by contractual obligation, assumption agreement or by operation of law, and further provided that Landlord and its successors, as the case may be, shall remain liable after their respective periods of ownership with respect to any sums due in connection with a breach or default by such party that arose during or prior to such period of ownership by such party. Except as set forth in this Article 24, this Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Tenant agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the entity originally named as “Landlord” in this Lease shall remain liable for the payment of the Allowance notwithstanding any sale or conveyance of the Project.

Tenant irrevocably agrees that if Tenant fails to execute and deliver such certificate within such twenty (20) day period (or provide written comments to any proposed certificate delivered by Landlord), Landlord may provide to Tenant a second written request with respect to such estoppel certificate which written notice must state in bold and all caps “FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS WRITTEN NOTICE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER RECEIPT HEREOF SHALL CONSTITUTE AN EVENT OF DEFAULT”. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver such certificate (or provide written comments to any proposed certificate delivered by Landlord) within a five (5) business day period following the receipt of Landlord’s second written request therefor, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default.

If Landlord fails to execute and deliver such certificate (or provide written comments to any proposed certificate delivered by Tenant) within a five (5) business day period following the receipt of Tenant’s second written request therefor, such failure shall constitute an event of default.
26. SURRENDER OF PREMISES.

In such event, Tenant, within thirty (30) days after demand together with reasonable supporting documentation, shall reimburse Landlord for any reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in causing the notice of lease to be released of record.
38. OPTION TO RENEW. Provided this Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default under any of the other terms and conditions of this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period at the time of notification, Tenant shall have two (2) successive options to renew (each, a “Renewal Option”) the Term of this Lease (each, a “Renewal Term”), for the portion of the Premises being leased by Tenant as of the date the applicable Renewal Term is to commence, on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, except as modified by the terms, covenants and conditions as set forth below. The term of the first Renewal Term (if exercised by Tenant) shall be ten (10) years. The term of the second Renewal Term (if exercised by Tenant) shall be nine (9) years and three hundred sixty four (364) days.
38.1 If Tenant elects to exercise the applicable Renewal Option, then Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice (the “Renewal Option Exercise Notice”) no earlier than the date which is five hundred forty (540) days prior to the expiration of then current Term of this Lease but no later than the date which is three hundred sixty-five (365) days prior to the expiration of the then current Term of this Lease. If Tenant fails to provide such notice, Tenant shall have no further or additional right to extend or renew the Term of this Lease. Within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s written request, such request to be made no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the first date on which Tenant may exercise its Renewal Option, Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing of Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Market rate for the applicable Renewal Term (“Landlord’s Prevailing Market Determination”).
38.2 The Annual Rent and Monthly Installment of Rent in effect at the expiration of the then current Term of this Lease shall be revised to be ninety-five percent (95%) of the Prevailing Market (as defined in Section 38.9) rate as of the commencement of the Renewal Term. Unless Tenant has previously requested (and Landlord has delivered) a written notice setting forth Landlords’ Prevailing Market Determination, within ten (10) days after receipt of the Renewal Option Exercise Notice, Landlord shall deliver a written notice to Tenant setting forth Landlord’s Prevailing Market Determination. Landlord and Tenant shall have thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Prevailing Market Determination (or for thirty (30) days following Landlord’s receipt of the Renewal Option Exercise Notice (if Tenant has previously requested (and Landlord has delivered) a written notice setting forth Landlords’ Prevailing Market Determination)) to agree on a mutually acceptable Annual Rent and Monthly Installment of Rent for the applicable
22
Renewal Term. If following the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, Landlord and Tenant have not reached agreement on the Annual Rent and Monthly Installment of Rent for the applicable Renewal Term, then within ten (10) days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall elect in writing (“Tenant’s Election Notice”) to (i) accept Landlord’s Prevailing Market Determination, in which case, ninety five percent (95%) of Landlord’s Prevailing Market Determination shall be the Annual Rent and Monthly Installment of Rent for the applicable Renewal Term, (ii) revoke the Renewal Option Exercise Notice, in which, case such notice shall be null and void and of no further effect and Tenant shall have no further or additional right to extend or renew the Term of this Lease, or (iii) proceed to arbitration in accordance with Section 38.3 below, in which case, Tenant’s Election Notice shall set forth Tenant’s determination of the Prevailing Market rate for the Premises during the applicable Renewal Term (“Tenant’s Prevailing Market Determination”). Tenant’s failure to set forth Tenant’s Prevailing Market Determination in Tenant’s Election Notice shall be deemed to be a revocation of the Renewal Option Exercise Notice under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.
38.3 If Tenant elects to arbitrate the Annual Rent and Monthly Installment of Rent for the applicable Renewal Term pursuant to Section 38.2 above, then Landlord and Tenant shall mutually select a single appraiser (the “Appraiser”) to determine which of Landlord’s Prevailing Market Determination or Tenant’s Prevailing Market Determination most closely reflects the Prevailing Market rate for the Premises during the applicable Renewal Term. The Appraiser must be certified as an MAI appraiser, shall be a disinterested party with no ongoing business relations with either party, and shall have had at least five (5) years experience within the previous ten (10) years as a real estate appraiser working in Menlo Park, California, with working knowledge of current rental rates and practices for commercial office properties. For purposes hereof, an “MAI” appraiser means an individual who holds an MAI designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor organization, or in the event there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar). If an Appraiser has not been so appointed within twenty (20) days after Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Election Notice, then either party, on behalf of both, may request such appointment by the San Francisco office of the American Arbitration Association (or any successor thereto), or in the absence, failure, refusal or inability of such entity to act, then either party may apply to the presiding judge of the San Francisco Superior Court, for the appointment of the Appraiser, and the other party shall not raise any question as to the court’s full power and jurisdiction to make the appointment.
38.4 Within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the Appraiser, the Appraiser shall make his or her determination of which of Landlord’s Prevailing Market Determination or Tenant’s Prevailing Market Determination most closely reflects the Prevailing Market rate and such determination shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant. If the Appraiser believes that expert advice would materially assist him or her, he or she may retain one or more qualified persons to provide such expert advice. The parties shall share equally in the costs of the Appraiser and of any experts retained by the Appraiser. Any fees of any appraiser, counsel or experts engaged directly by Landlord or Tenant, however, shall be borne by the party retaining such appraiser, counsel or expert. Each party may submit any written materials to the arbitrator. No witnesses or oral testimony (i.e. no hearing) shall be permitted in connection with the Appraiser’s decision unless agreed to by both parties. No ex parte communications shall be permitted between the Appraiser and either Landlord or Tenant following appointment of the Appraiser until conclusion of the arbitration process. The Appraiser is authorized to walk both the Premises and any comparable space (to the extent access is made available).
38.5 Intentionally Omitted.
38.6 If the Prevailing Market rate has not been determined by the commencement date of the applicable Renewal Term, Tenant shall pay Monthly Installments of Rent upon the terms and conditions in effect during the last month of the immediately preceding Term until such time as the Prevailing Market rate has been determined. Upon such determination, the Annual Rent and Monthly Installments of Rent for the Premises shall be retroactively adjusted to the commencement of such Renewal Term for the Premises.
38.7 Intentionally Omitted.
38.8 If Tenant fails to validly exercise the first Renewal Option, Tenant shall have no further right extend the term of this Lease. In addition, if both Renewal Options are validly exercised or if Tenant fails to validly exercise the second Renewal Option, Tenant shall have no further right to extend the term of this Lease. If Tenant is entitled to and properly exercises a Renewal Option, Landlord shall prepare an amendment (the “Renewal Amendment”) to reflect changes in the Annual Rent and Monthly Installment of Rent, Term, Termination Date, deletion of expired or terminated options, and other reasonably appropriate terms. The Renewal Amendment shall be sent to Tenant within a reasonable time after determination of the Prevailing Market rate and Tenant shall execute and return the Renewal Amendment to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s receipt of same, but, upon final determination of the Prevailing Market rate applicable during such Renewal Term as described herein, an otherwise valid exercise of a Renewal Option shall be fully effective whether or not the related Renewal Amendment is executed.
23
38.9 As used herein, the term “Prevailing Market” rate means the rental rate that a willing tenant would pay, and that a willing landlord would accept, at arm’s length, as of the commencement of the applicable Renewal Term, for space comparable to the Premises within other projects in the Menlo Park, California area (the “Comparison Buildings”), based upon binding lease transactions for tenants in Comparison Buildings that, where possible, commence or are to commence within six (6) months prior to or within six (6) months after the commencement of the applicable Extension Term (“Comparison Leases”) excluding the rental value attributable to any Alterations paid for by Tenant. Comparison Leases shall include renewal and new non-renewal tenancies. Rent rates payable under Comparison Leases shall be adjusted to account for variations between this Lease and the Comparison Leases with respect to, among other things: (a) the length of the applicable Extension Term compared to the lease term of the Comparison Leases; (b) rental structure, including, without limitation, rental rates per rentable square foot (including type, gross or net, and if gross, adjusting for the base year or expense stop), and escalation provisions, (c) the size of the Premises compared to the size of the premises of the Comparison Leases; (d) location, floor levels, efficiencies and outlook of the floor(s) of the Premises compared to the premises of the Comparison Leases; (e) free rent, moving allowances and other cash payments affecting the rental rate; (f) the age and quality of construction of the Project (including compliance with applicable codes) compared to the Comparison Buildings; (g) leasehold improvements and/or allowances, including the amounts thereof in renewal leases; (h) access to public transit and the availability of parking; (i) the energy efficiencies and environmental elements of the Project compared to Comparison Buildings, including current LEED certification; (j) the uses of the Comparison Leases as compared to the use of the Premises; (k) the scope of any base building work to be performed in the Comparison Buildings compared to the Project; (l) the type and quality of tenant improvements in the Premises as compared to Comparison Buildings and (m) the fact that landlords are or are not paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with such Comparison Leases.

The Purchase Price shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord through closing of the escrow in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. In the event that Tenant fails to timely execute and deliver the Purchase Agreement or to timely deliver the Deposit into the escrow in accordance with this Section, the applicable Purchase Option shall be null and void and of no further force or effect. Failure of Landlord to execute the Purchase Agreement shall have no effect on Tenant’s exercise of the Purchase Option or the rights and responsibilities of the parties hereunder.
39.4 For purposes of this Purchase Option, the “Closing Date” shall be defined as the date the grant deed (“Deed”) conveying the Project to Tenant is recorded in the Official Records of San Mateo County, California.

In such event, Tenant shall, upon request of Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a quit claim deed releasing Tenant’s interest in the Purchase Options. Landlord shall be responsible for the preparation of such deed and the payment of any fees applicable to the recording thereof.
39.6 Landlord and Tenant agree that Tenant shall have a right of specific performance to enforce Tenant’s right to the Purchase Options. In addition, any damages recoverable by Tenant from Landlord as the result of Landlord’s breach of this Article 39 or the Purchase Agreement may be set-off against rent and other amounts due under this Lease. Tenant may assign either or both Purchase Options separate and apart from any assignment of this Lease. Tenant shall provide Landlord written notice of any assignment of either or both Purchase Options within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such assignment. Tenant may reserve for itself either or both Purchase Options separate and apart from any assignment of this Lease.
40. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER TO PURCHASE.
40.1 If during the Term Landlord intends (i) to offer for sale the Project (including by means of a sale directly or indirectly of the partnership interests, membership interests, stock or other equity interests of Landlord or by means of a merger of Landlord) (the “Right of First Offer Property”) to any unaffiliated third party purchaser (other than pursuant to Article 39) or (ii) to accept an offer from an unaffiliated third party purchaser to purchase all or any portion of the Right of First Offer Property (other than pursuant to Article 39), Landlord shall first give written notice to Tenant of the purchase price (the “Offer Price”) and other material terms upon which Landlord is willing to sell such Right of First Offer Property (“Landlord’s Offer Notice”). Landlord’s Offer Notice shall set forth the material economic terms and conditions (including, without limitation, a statement regarding whether the Project will be sold free and clear of all deeds of trust, mortgages or other similar instruments affecting the Project) under which Landlord is willing to sell the Right of First Offer Property to Tenant (the “Material Terms”), but shall not constitute an agreement between the parties or an offer to sell such Right of First Offer Property. Concurrently with Landlord’s Offer Notice, if applicable, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a copy of any unaffiliated third party purchaser’s offer concerning the Right of First Offer Property (excluding the identity of the offeror and the broker(s)). Tenant shall have the one time right of first offer (“Right of First Offer”) to buy such Right of First Offer Property upon the economic terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s Offer Notice and the terms of this Article 40, provided Tenant, within forty five (45) days (the “Exercise Period”) after receipt of Landlord’s Offer Notice, delivers written notice (the “Purchase Commitment”) to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to pursue the proposed sale transaction described in Landlord’s Offer Notice.
40.2 As used herein, “unaffiliated third party purchaser” shall specifically exclude a purchaser which (i) is an affiliate of Landlord, or (ii) is acquiring the Right of First Offer Property by eminent domain or threat of eminent domain.

Within three (3) business day following Landlord’s delivery of the three (3) originals of the Purchase Agreement countersigned by Landlord to escrow company, Tenant shall deliver the deposit specified in the Material Terms, to escrow company in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. If Tenant fails to timely deliver the Purchase Commitment, the executed Purchase Agreement or the deposit specified therein in accordance with the terms of this Section, all rights of Tenant to purchase the Right of First Offer Property shall terminate and Landlord shall have no further obligation to notify Tenant of any proposed offer or sale of the Right of First Offer Property and Landlord shall thereafter have the unconditional right to offer, negotiate and sell the Right of First Offer Property to any party, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 40.4 below.

Tenant may assign the Right of First Offer separate and apart from any assignment of this Lease. Tenant shall provide Landlord written notice of any assignment of the Right of First Offer within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such assignment. Tenant may reserve for itself the Right of First Offer separate and apart from any assignment of this Lease.
40.6 If Tenant defaults on any of its obligations under this Lease after delivery of the Purchase Commitment, beyond any applicable cure period, Landlord shall continue with the sale of the Right of First Offer Property to Tenant but shall retain all rights and remedies hereunder with respect to such default.

In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, the terms of this Lease (but not its mere existence) will be deemed Confidential Information of each party.

3.3 | Buyer’s Review of Title. Buyer shall have until a date that is 10 Business Days following Buyer’s receipt of the PTR (the “Title Review Termination Date”) to notify Seller in writing of any objection which Buyer may have to any matters reported or shown in the PTR or Survey that are not then Permitted Exceptions under Section 3.2 (“Buyer’s Objection Letter”). Matters reported in or shown by the PTR or Survey and not timely objected to by Buyer as provided above together with any exceptions that are |
3
expressly approved by Buyer, shall be deemed thereafter to be “Permitted Exceptions”. Seller shall have no obligation to cure or correct any matter objected to by Buyer. However, on or before the 5th Business Day following Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s Objection Letter, Seller may elect, by delivering written notice of such election to Buyer (“Seller’s Response”) whether to cause Title Company to remove or insure over any matters objected to in Buyer’s Objection Letter. If Seller fails to deliver Seller’s Response within the time frame set forth above, it shall be deemed to be an election by Seller not to cause Title Company to so remove or insure over such objections. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cause Title Company to so remove or insure, then Buyer must elect, by delivering written notice of such election to Seller and Escrow Agent on or before the earlier to occur of (a) the 3rd Business Day following Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s Response or (b) if no Seller’s Response is received by Buyer, the 3rd Business Day following the date on which Seller shall have been deemed to have responded, as provided above, to: (i) terminate this Agreement (in which case Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to Buyer, the parties shall equally share the cancellation charges of Escrow Agent and Title Company, if any, and neither party shall thereafter have any rights or obligations to the other hereunder, other than pursuant to any provision hereof which expressly survives the termination of this Agreement); or (ii) proceed to a timely Closing whereupon such objected to exceptions or matters shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions. In the event that Buyer fails to make such election on a timely basis, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed to a timely Closing in accordance with the preceding clause (ii). If Seller elects to cause Title Company to remove or insure over any matters objected to in Buyer’s Objection Letter, Seller thereafter fails to do so prior to Closing and such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice to Seller and extension of the Closing Date by Seller in its sole discretion for up to thirty (30) days to effectuate a cure, then, so long as Buyer shall not be in default of this Agreement, Buyer may elect on or before the Closing Date, as so extended by Seller for up to thirty (30) days, to either (x) terminate this Agreement (in which case Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to Buyer, the parties shall equally share the cancellation charges of Escrow Agent and Title Company, if any, and neither party shall thereafter have any rights or obligations to the other hereunder, other than pursuant to any provision hereof which expressly survives the termination of this Agreement); or (y) proceed to a timely Closing whereupon such uncured but objected to exceptions or matters shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions. In the event that Buyer fails to make such election on a timely basis, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed to a timely Closing in accordance with the preceding clause (y). |
3.4 | Title Exceptions Disclosed After the Execution Date. If, after Buyer’s delivery of Buyer’s Objection Letter (or, if Buyer does not deliver a Buyer’s Objection Letter, after the period during which Buyer may deliver a Buyer’s Objection Letter has expired), the Title Company issues a new or supplemental title report that discloses one or more exceptions that were not disclosed to Buyer in the PTR, then (i) any exception that is of the nature of one of the conditions of title described in Sections 3.2.1 through 3.2.5, shall become a Permitted Exception, and (ii) with respect to any exception that is not of the nature of the items described in Sections 3.2.1 through 3.2.5, subject to the last sentence of this Section 3.3, Buyer shall have until 5:00 p.m. San Francisco time on the date that is five (5) Business Days after Buyer’s receipt of the new or supplemental title commitment |
4
and the underlying document for such exception to notify Seller in writing as to whether Buyer approves or disapproves the new exception. If Buyer approves such exception or fails to give notice by the time required under the previous sentence, then such exception shall become a Permitted Exception. If Buyer timely disapproves a new exception as permitted by this Section 4.2.4, then, subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.2.4, Seller shall have until 5:00 p.m. San Francisco time on the date that is two (2) Business Days after its receipt of Buyer’s disapproval notice to notify Buyer as to whether Seller will attempt to cause the new exception to be removed or insured against prior to or at Closing. Seller’s failure to give any such notice by the time required under the previous sentence shall be deemed to constitute Seller’s refusal to attempt to cause the new exception to be removed or insured against. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 3.3, Buyer shall have until 5:00 p.m. San Francisco time on the date that is three (3) Business Day after its receipt of a notice from Seller in which Seller refuses to attempt to cause the new exception to be removed or insured against to either (a) send notice waiving its disapproval of the new exception, in which event the exception shall become a Permitted Exception, or (b) deliver written notice to Seller of Buyer’s election to terminate this Agreement. Buyer’s failure to deliver a waiver notice to Seller in the time required by the previous sentence shall be deemed to constitute Buyer’s waiver of its disapproval of the new exception. The Closing Date shall be extended, if and as necessary, to enable Buyer and Seller to have the time periods provided above in this Section 3.3 to make the various elections described herein and to provide Seller with a period of up to thirty (30) days to extend the Closing Date at Seller’s election in Seller’s sole discretion, in order to cause such exception to be removed. |
3.5 | Seller’s Obligations Regarding Title. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Seller shall take all action necessary to remove from title to the Property (or in the alternative, Seller may obtain for Buyer title insurance insuring over such exceptions or matters, such insurance to be in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer in its sole discretion) the following matters: (a) all exceptions to title and survey matters created by Seller on or after the Execution Date without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent may be withheld in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion); (b) any and all liens and encumbrances for deeds of trusts, mortgages, judgments against Seller and mechanics’ liens caused by Seller (other than installments of real estate taxes or assessments not delinquent as of the Closing); (c) any matters created by Seller or any of its predecessors in violation of the terms and conditions of that certain lease between Xxxxxx Menlo Park Campus, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company, and Facebook, Inc., a Delaware corporation, dated , 20 (the “Lease”), and (d) all taxes and installments of assessments due and payable for any period prior to Closing (collectively, the “Obligatory Removal Exceptions”). If, prior to the Closing, Seller is unable to remove or satisfactorily insure over any of the Obligatory Removal Exceptions, then, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies which Buyer may have hereunder or at law or in equity, Buyer may (a) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent (in which case Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to Buyer, and the parties shall equally share the Cancellation Charges), and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all of Buyer’s reasonable, third-party, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and thereafter neither party shall have any rights or obligations to the other |
5
hereunder, other than pursuant to any provision hereof which expressly survives the termination of this Agreement; (b) pursue an action for specific performance to compel Seller to remove the Obligatory Removal Exceptions; or (c) proceed to a timely Closing and thereafter maintain an action for damages against Seller. |
3.6 | Condition of Title at Closing. Upon the Closing, Seller shall sell, transfer and convey to Buyer fee simple title to the Land and the Improvements thereon by a duly executed and acknowledged deed in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Deed”), subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. |

Prior to Closing, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate and undertake diligent efforts in order to satisfy the requirements of the BCDC Permit with respect to, and obtain any necessary consent to, the assignment of the BCDC Permit to Buyer at Closing (collectively, the “BCDC Consent”). In addition to the conditions of Closing specified in Section 7.1.3 below, it shall be a Buyer’s Condition that all necessary consents and approvals required for the assignment of the BCDC Permit to Buyer have been obtained prior to the Closing; provided, however, that if such condition has not been satisfied and Buyer elects to waive such condition and proceed with Closing, (i) Buyer shall endeavor to obtain any such necessary consents and approvals as soon as reasonably practicable after Closing, and (ii) provided that Seller has cooperated with Buyer and undertaken diligent efforts to obtain the BCDC consent, Buyer shall indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably approved by Seller) and hold harmless Seller from and against all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, penalties, fines, lawsuits or other proceedings, and costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) suffered or incurred by Seller as a consequence of the failure of the parties to obtain any such necessary consents and approvals prior to Closing. The provisions of this Section 3.7 shall survive the Closing. |

Buyer’s failure to give notice within five (5) business days after it has obtained actual knowledge |
8

Seller shall have no obligation to cure or remedy any Exception Matter, even if Seller has notified Buyer of Seller’s election to attempt to cure or remedy any Exception Matter (except as specifically provided in Sections 3.3 and 3.4), and, subject to Buyer’s right to terminate this Agreement as set forth above, Seller shall have no liability whatsoever to Buyer with respect to any Exception Matters. Upon any termination of this Agreement, neither party shall have any further rights nor obligations hereunder, except as specifically provided herein. If Buyer obtains actual knowledge of any Exception Matter before the Closing, but nonetheless elects to proceed with the acquisition of the Property or is obligated to proceed with the acquisition of the Property, Seller shall have no liability with respect to such Exception Matter, notwithstanding any contrary provision, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any documents delivered by Seller at Closing pursuant to Section 9.1. |

9

Buyer waives right to recover from Seller, the affiliates of Seller, and the shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents of each of the foregoing parties (collectively, the “Seller-Related Parties”), and forever releases, covenants not to xxx and discharges the Seller-Related Parties from, any and all damages, demands, claims, losses, liabilities, penalties, fines, liens, judgments, costs or expenses whatsoever, including attorneys’ fees and costs, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, that may arise on account of this Agreement or in any way be connected with the Property, including, but not limited to, the presence of any hazardous materials on, in, under or about the Property.
The release set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph includes claims, liabilities and other matters of which Buyer is presently unaware or of which Buyer does not presently suspect to exist which, if known by Buyer, would materially affect Buyer’s willingness to enter into the release set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph. In this connection and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Buyer hereby agrees, represents and warrants that Buyer realizes and acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it may have given or may hereafter give rise to causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, loses and expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and Buyer further agrees, represents and warrants that the release set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph has been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that realization and that Buyer nevertheless hereby intends to release, discharge and acquit the Seller-Related Parties from any such unknown causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses. In connection with the release set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, Buyer expressly waives the benefits of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which provides as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.
Nothing set forth hereinabove is intended to or shall alter or diminish in any way the rights and obligations of the parties under the Lease for the period prior to Closing.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE RELEASE SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 4.10 SHALL NOT APPLY (I) TO THE EXTENT OF ANY FRAUD PERPETRATED BY SELLER OR THE SELLER-RELATED PARTIES OR ANY INTENTIONAL OR NEGLIGENT MISREPRESENTATION MADE BY SELLER OR THE SELLER-RELATED PARTIES, PROVIDED THAT THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT EXTEND THE PERIOD WITH RESPECT TO WHICH REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SURVIVE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 4.9 ABOVE, (II) ANY OBLIGATION OF SELLER WHICH EXPRESSLY SURVIVES THE CLOSING, OR (III) TO ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO SELLER’S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO BUYER AT CLOSING.
The provisions of this Section 4.10 shall survive the Closing.

19
contemplated taking which has not been consummated), Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of such fact.

THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. SELLER HEREBY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 3389.

1. | Title being vested other than as stated in Schedule A. |
2. | Any defect in or lien or encumbrance on the Title. This Covered Risk includes but is not limited to insurance against loss from |
(a) | A defect in the Title caused by |
(i) | forgery, fraud, undue influence, duress, incompetency, incapacity, or impersonation; |
(ii) | failure of any person or Entity to have authorized a transfer or conveyance; |
(iii) | a document affecting Title not property created, executed, witnessed, sealed, acknowledged, notarized or delivered; |
(iv) | failure to perform those acts necessary to create a document by electronic means authorized by law; |
(v) | a document executed under a falsified, expired, or otherwise invalid power of attorney; |
(vi) | a document not properly filed, recorded, or indexed in the Public Records including failure to perform those act by electronic means authorized by law; or |
(vii) | a defective judicial or administrative proceeding. |
(b) | The lien of real-estate taxes or assessments imposed on the Title by a governmental authority due or payable, but unpaid. |
(c) | Any encroachment, encumbrance, violation, variation, or adverse circumstance affecting the Title that would be disclosed by an accurate and complete land survey of the Land. The term “encroachment” includes encroachments of existing improvements located on the Land onto adjoining land, and encroachments onto the Land of existing improvements located on adjoining land. |
3. | Unmarketable Title. |
4. | No right of access to and from the Land. |
5. | The violation or enforcement of any law, ordinance, permit, or governmental regulation (including those relating to building and zoning) restricting, regulating, prohibiting, or relating to |
(a) | the occupancy, use, or enjoyment of the Land; |
(b) | the character, dimensions, or location of any improvement erected on the Land; |
(c) | the subdivision of land; or |
(d) | environmental protection |
If a notice, describing any part of the Land, is recorded in the Public Records setting forth the violation or intention to enforce, but only to the extent of the violation or enforcement referred to in that notice.
6. | An enforcement action based on the exercise of a governmental police power not covered by Covered Risk 5. If a notice of the enforcement action, describing any part of the Land, is recorded in the Public Records, but only to the extent of the enforcement referred to in that notice. |
7. | The exercise of the rights of eminent domain if a notice of the exercise, describing any part of the Land, is recorded in the Public Records. |
8. | Any taking by a governmental body that has occurred and is binding on the rights of a purchaser for value without Knowledge. |
9. | Title being vested other than as stated in Schedule A or being defective |
(a) | as a result of the avoidance in whole or in part, or from a court order providing an alternative remedy, of a transfer of all or any part of the title to or any interest in the Land occurring prior to the transaction vesting Title as shown in Schedule A because that prior transfer constituted a fraudulent or preferential transfer under federal bankruptcy, state insolvency, or similar creditors’ rights laws; or |
(b) | because the instrument of transfer vesting Title as shown in Schedule A constitutes a preferential transfer under federal bankruptcy, state insolvency, or similar creditors’ rights laws by reason of the failure of its recording in the Public Records |
(i) | to be timely, or |
(ii) | to impart notice of its existence to a purchaser for value or to a judgment or lien creditor. |
10. | Any defect in or lien or encumbrance on the Title or other matter included in Covered Risks 1 through 9 that has been created or attached or has been filed or recorded in the Public Records subsequent to Date of Policy and prior to the recording of the deed or other instrument of transfer in the Public Records that vests Title as shown in Schedule A. |

CONDITIONS
1. DEFINITION OF TERMS
The following terms when used in this policy mean:
(a) | “Amount of Insurance”: The amount stated in Schedule A as may be increased or decreased by endorsement to this policy, increased by Section 8(b), or decreased by Sections 10 and 11 of these Conditions. |
(b) | “Date of Policy”: The date designated as “Date of Policy” in Schedule A. |
(c) | “Entity”: A corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company, or other similar legal entity. |
(d) | “Insured”: The Insured named in Schedule A. |
(i) | The term “Insured” also includes |
(A) | successors to the Title of the Insured by operation of law as distinguished from purchase, including heirs, devisees, survivors, personal representatives, or next of kin; |
(B) | successors to an Insured by dissolution, merger, consolidation, distribution, or reorganization; |
(C) | successors to an Insured by its conversion to another kind of Entity; |
(D) | a grantee of an Insured under a deed delivered without payment of actual valuable consideration conveying the Title |
(1) | if the stock, shares, memberships, or other equity interests of the grantee are wholly-owned by the named Insured, |
(2) | if the grantee wholly owns the named Insured, |
(3) | if the grantee is wholly-owned by an affiliated Entity of the named Insured, provided the affiliated Entity and the named Insured are both wholly-owned by the same person or Entity, or |
(4) | if the grantee is a trustee or beneficiary of a trust created by a written instrument established by the Insured named in Schedule A for estate planning purposes. |
(ii) | With regard to (A), (B), (C), and (D) reserving, however, all rights and defenses as to any successor that the Company would have had against any predecessor Insured. |
(e) | “Insured Claimant”: An Insured claiming loss or damage. |
(f) | “Knowledge” or “Known”: Actual knowledge, not constructive knowledge or notice that may be imputed to an Insured by reason of the Public Records or any other records that impart constructive notice of matters affecting the Title. |
(g) | “Land”: The land described in Schedule A, and affixed improvements that by law constitute real property. The term “Land” does not include any property beyond the lines of the area described in Schedule A, nor any right, title, interest, estate, or easement in abutting streets, roads, avenues, alleys, lanes, ways, or waterways, but this does not modify or limit the extent that a right of access to and from the Land is insured by this policy. |
(h) | “Mortgage”: Mortgage, deed of trust, trust deed, or other security instrument, including one evidenced by electronic means authorized by law. |
(i) | “Public Records”: Records established under state statutes at Date of Policy for the purpose of imparting constructive notice of matters relating to real property to purchasers for value and without Knowledge. With respect to Covered Risk 5(d), “Public Records” shall also include environmental protection liens filed in the records of the clerk of the United States District Court for the district where the land is located. |
(j) | “Title”: The estate or interest described in Schedule A. |
(k) | “Unmarketable Title”: Title affected by an alleged or apparent matter that would permit a prospective purchaser or lessee of the Title or lender on the Title to be released from the obligation to purchase, lease, or lend if there is contractual condition requiring the delivery of marketable title. |
2. CONTINUATION OF INSURANCE
The coverage of this policy shall continue in force as of Date of Policy in favor of an Insured, but only so long as the Insured retains an estate or interest in the Land, or holds an obligation secured by a purchase money Mortgage given by a purchaser from the Insured, or only so long as the Insured shall have liability by reason of warranties in any transfer or conveyance of the Title. This policy shall not continue in force in favor of any purchaser from the Insured of either (i) an estate or interest in the Land, or (ii) an obligation secured by a purchase money Mortgage given to the Insured.
3. NOTICE OF CLAIM TO BE GIVEN BY INSURED CLAIMANT
The Insured shall notify the Company promptly in writing (i) in case of any litigation as set forth in Section 5(a) of these Conditions, (ii) in case Knowledge shall come to an Insured hereunder of any claim of title or interest that is adverse to the Title, as insured, and that might cause loss or damage for which the Company may be liable by virtue of this policy, or (iii) if the Title, as insured, is rejected as Unmarketable Title. If the Company is prejudiced by the failure of the Insured Claimant to provide prompt notice, the Company’s liability to the Insured Claimant under the policy shall be reduced to the extent of the prejudice.
4. PROOF OF LOSS
In the event the Company is unable to determine the amount of loss or damage, the Company may, at its option, require as a condition of payment that the Insured Claimant furnish a signed proof of loss. The proof of loss must describe the defect, lien, encumbrance, or other matter insured against by this policy that constitutes the basis of loss or damage and shall state, to the extent possible, the basis of calculating the amount of the loss or damage.
5. DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION OF ACTIONS
(a) | Upon written request by the Insured, and subject to the options contained in Section 7 of these Conditions, the Company, at its own cost and without unreasonable delay, shall provide for the defense of an Insured in litigation in which any third party asserts a claim covered by this policy adverse to the Insured. This obligation is limited to only those stated causes of action alleging matters insured against by this policy. The Company shall have the right to select counsel of its choice (subject to the right of the Insured to object for reasonable cause) to represent the Insured as to those stated causes of action. It shall not be liable for and will not pay the fees of any other counsel. The Company will not pay any fees, costs, or expenses incurred by the Insured in the defense of those causes of action that allege matters not insured against by this policy. |
(b) | The Company shall have the right, in addition to the options contained in Section 7 of these Conditions, at its own cost, to institute and prosecute any action or proceeding or to do any other act that in its opinion may be necessary or desirable to establish the Title, as Insured, or to prevent or reduce loss or damage to the Insured. The Company may take any appropriate action under the terms of this policy, whether or not it shall be liable to the Insured. The exercise of these rights shall not be an admission of liability or waiver of any provision of this policy. If the Company exercises its rights under this subsection, it must do so diligently. |
(c) | Whenever the Company brings an action or asserts a defense as required or permitted by this policy, the Company may pursue the litigation to a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction, and it expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to appeal any adverse judgment or order. |
6. DUTY OF INSURED CLAIMANT TO COOPERATE
(a) | In all cases where this policy permits or requires the Company to prosecute or provide for the defense of any action or proceeding and any appeals, the Insured shall secure to the Company the right to so prosecute or provide defense in the action or proceeding, including the right to use, at its option, the name of the Insured for this purpose. Whenever requested by the Company, the Insured, at the Company’s expense, shall give the Company all reasonable aid (i) in securing evidence, obtaining witnesses, prosecuting or defending the action or proceeding, or effecting settlement, and (ii) in any other lawful act that in the opinion of the Company may be necessary or desirable to establish the Title or any other matter as insured. If the Company is prejudiced by the failure of the Insured to furnish the required cooperation, the Company’s obligations to the Insured under the policy shall terminate, including any liability or obligation to defend, prosecute, or continue any litigation, with regard to the matter or matters requiring such cooperation. |
(b) | The Company may reasonably require the Insured Claimant to submit to examination under oath by any authorized representative of the Company and to produce for examination, inspection, and copying, at such reasonable times and places as may be designated by the authorized representative of the Company, all records, in whatever medium maintained, including books, ledgers, checks, memoranda, correspondence, reports, e-mails, disks, tapes, and videos whether bearing a date before or after Date of Policy, that reasonably pertain to the loss or damage. Further, if requested by any authorized representative of the Company, the Insured Claimant shall grant its permission, in writing, for any authorized representative of the Company to examine, inspect, and copy all of these records in the custody or control of a third party that reasonably pertain to the loss or damage.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing preambles which by this reference are incorporated herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Sublandlord and Subtenant agree as follows:
1. Sublease Agreement. Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby represent that a true and complete copy of the Sublease is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A, and Sublandlord and Subtenant agree to promptly provide Landlord with a true and correct copy of any amendments or other modifications to the Sublease.
2. Indemnity. Subtenant hereby assumes, with respect to Landlord, all of the indemnity obligations of the Sublandlord under the Lease with respect to the Sublet Premises, provided that the foregoing shall not be construed as relieving or releasing Sublandlord from any such obligations.
3. No Release. Nothing contained in the Sublease or this Agreement shall be construed as relieving or releasing Sublandlord from any of its obligations under the Lease, it being expressly understood and agreed that Sublandlord shall remain liable for such obligations notwithstanding anything contained in the Sublease or this Agreement or any subsequent assignment(s), sublease(s) or transfer(s) of the interest of the tenant under the Lease. Sublandlord shall be responsible for the collection of all rent due it from Subtenant, and for the performance of all the other terms and conditions of the Sublease, it being understood that Landlord is not a party to the Sublease and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Sublease, is not bound by any terms, provisions, representations or warranties contained in the Sublease and is not obligated to Sublandlord or Subtenant for any of the duties and obligations contained therein.
4. Lease. The parties agree that the Sublease is subject and subordinate to the terms of the Lease. In no event shall the Sublease or this Agreement be construed as granting or conferring upon the Sublandlord or the Subtenant any greater rights than those contained in the Lease nor shall there be any diminution of the rights and privileges of the Landlord under the Lease, nor shall the Lease be deemed modified in any respect. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that any provisions in the Sublease which limit the manner in which Sublandlord may amend the Lease are binding only upon Sublandlord and Subtenant as between such parties. Landlord shall not be bound in any manner by such provisions and may rely upon Sublandlord’s execution of any agreements amending or terminating the Lease subsequent to the date hereof notwithstanding any contrary provisions in the Sublease.

5. Attornment. If the Lease or Sublandlord’s right to possession thereunder terminates for any reason prior to expiration of the Sublease, Subtenant agrees, at the written election of Landlord delivered within thirty (30) days after the termination or expiration of the Lease, to attorn to Landlord upon the then executory terms and conditions of the Sublease for the remainder of the term of the Sublease. If Landlord does not timely elect to have Subtenant attorn to Landlord as described above, the Sublease and all rights of Subtenant in the Sublet Premises shall terminate upon the date of termination of the Lease or Sublandlord’s right to possession thereunder. The terms of this Section supercede any contrary provisions in the Sublease.
6. Payments Under the Sublease. If at any time Sublandlord is in default beyond applicable notice and cure periods under the terms of the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to contact Subtenant and require Subtenant to pay all rent due under the Sublease directly to Landlord until such time as Sublandlord has cured such default. Subtenant agrees to pay such sums directly to Landlord if requested by Landlord, and Sublandlord agrees that any such sums paid by Subtenant shall be deemed applied against any sums owed by Subtenant under the Sublease. Any such sums received by Landlord from Subtenant shall be received by Landlord on behalf of Sublandlord and shall be applied by Landlord to any sums past due under the Lease, in such order of priority as required under the Lease or, if the Lease is silent in such regard, then in such order of priority as Landlord deems appropriate. The receipt of such funds by Landlord shall in no manner be deemed to create a direct lease or sublease between Landlord and Subtenant.
7. Authority. Each signatory of this Agreement represents hereby that he or she has the authority to execute and deliver the same on behalf of the party hereto for which such signatory is acting.
8. OFAC. Subtenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that neither Subtenant, nor any persons or entities holding any legal or beneficial interest whatsoever in Subtenant, is (i) the target of any sanctions program that is established by Executive Order of the President or published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”); (ii) designated by the President or OFAC pursuant to the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C.
