Information, the exhibits, the addendum or addenda described in the Basic Lease Information, and
this Lease Agreement are and shall be construed as a single instrument and are referred to herein
as the “Lease.”
1. Demise
In consideration for the rents and all other charges and payments payable by Tenant, and for
the agreements, terms and conditions to be performed by Tenant in this Lease, Landlord does
hereby lease to Tenant, and Tenant does hereby hire and take from Landlord, the Premises
described below (the “Premises”), upon the agreements, terms and conditions of this
Lease for the Term hereinafter stated.
2. Premises
The Premises demised by this Lease are located in that certain building (the
“Building”) specified in the Basic Lease Information, which Building is located in that

or that may have been used in calculating any of the economic terms hereof, is an approximation
which Landlord and Tenant agree is reasonable and, except as expressly set forth in Paragraphs
4(d)(iii), no economic terms based thereon shall be subject to revision whether or not the actual
square footage is more or less. The location and dimensions of the Premises are depicted on
Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Tenant
shall have the non-exclusive right (in common with the other tenants, Landlord and any other person
granted use by Landlord) to use the Common Areas (as hereinafter defined), except that, with
respect to the Project’s parking areas (the “Parking Areas”), Tenant shall have only
the rights, if any, set forth in Paragraph 43(b) below. For purposes of this Lease, the term
“Common Areas” shall mean all areas and facilities outside the Premises and within the

Landlord for the non-exclusive use of Landlord, Tenant and other tenants of the Project and their
respective employees, guests and invitees.
Landlord has the right, in its sole discretion, from time to time, to: (a) make changes to
the Common Areas, the Building and/or the Project, including, without limitation, changes in the
location, size, shape and number of driveways, entrances, parking spaces, Parking Areas, ingress,

remove existing buildings or improvements therefrom; (d) use the Common Areas while engaged in
making additional improvements, repairs or alterations to the Project or any portion thereof; and
(e) do and perform any other acts, alter or expand, or make any other
1
changes in, to or with respect to the Common Areas, the Building and/or the Project as
Landlord may, in its sole discretion, deem to be appropriate. Without limiting the foregoing,
Landlord reserves the right from time to time to install, use, maintain, repair, relocate and
replace pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, and appurtenant meters and equipment for service to the
Premises or to other parts of the Building which are above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor
surfaces, within the walls and in the central core areas of the Building which are located within
the Premises or located elsewhere in the Building. In connection with any of the foregoing
activities of Landlord, Landlord shall not materially and adversely interfere with Tenant’s access
to and use of the Premises.
No rights to any view or to light or air over any property, whether belonging to Landlord or
any other person, are granted to Tenant by this Lease. If at any time any windows of the Premises
are temporarily darkened or the light or view therefrom is obstructed, the same shall be without
liability to Landlord and without any reduction or diminution of Tenant’s obligations under this
Lease.
3. Term
The term of this Lease (the “Term”) shall commence on August 1, 2010 (the
“Commencement Date”) and shall terminate on July 31, 2017 (the “Expiration
Date”), subject to possible extension or early termination by Tenant as set forth in
Paragraphs 54 and 56, respectively.

items and the pro rata share of the deductible payable by tenant shall be limited to the costs of
the damage which are allocable to the remainder of the Term (including any renewal term) based upon

Additionally, with respect to any particular casualty event affecting the Project, in no event
shall Tenant’s Proportionate Share of any individual insurance deductible exceed Thirty Two

tenant, and any amounts, taxes, charges, surcharges, assessments or impositions levied, assessed or

(D) “Taxes” means all real estate taxes and assessments, which shall include any

having the direct or indirect power to tax, or by any city, county, state or federal government or
any improvement or other district or division thereof, whether such tax is determined by the area
of the Premises, the Building and/or the Project or any part thereof, or the Rent and other sums
payable hereunder by Tenant or by other tenants, including, but not limited to, (i) any gross
income or excise tax levied by any of the foregoing authorities, with respect to receipt of Rent
and/or other sums due under this Lease; (ii) upon any legal or equitable interest of Landlord in
the Premises, the Building and/or the Project or any part thereof, (iii) upon this transaction or

charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such purposes as fire protection, street,
sidewalk, road, utility construction and maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental
services which may formerly have been provided without charge to property owners or occupants. It
is the intention of the parties that all new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies and
charges due to any cause whatsoever are to be included within the definition of real property taxes
for
5
purposes of this Lease. “Taxes” shall also include reasonable legal and consultants’ fees,

limitation, conservation, bond and/or debt repayment surcharges, charges of a one-time nature,
boycotts, strikes, embargoes or other events resulting in shortages. In addition, in the event
that, in any Computation Year after the Base Year, Landlord obtains a decrease in the unit cost of
electricity being provided to the Building through its negotiations with utility providers or
otherwise (“Reduced Electrical Rate”), Landlord shall have the right to revise the
electrical cost component of the Utility Expenses for the Base Year to be equal to the amount such
electrical cost component would have been had the unit cost of electricity during the Base Year
been equal to the Reduced Electrical Rate unless the reduction is a short term reduction and not a
permanent reduction.
(J) “Computation Year” shall mean each twelve (12) consecutive month period
commencing January 1 of each year during the Term following the Base Year, provided that Landlord,
upon notice to Tenant, may change the Computation Year from time to time to any other twelve (12)
consecutive month period, and, in the event of any such change, Tenant’s Proportionate Share(s) of
Operating Expenses over Base Operating Expenses, of Insurance Expenses over Base Insurance
Expenses, of Utility Expenses over Base Utility Expenses, and of Taxes over Base Taxes shall be
equitably adjusted for the Computation Years involved in any such change.
(c) Exclusions from Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Paragraph
4(b) above, “Operating Expenses” and “Additional Rent” shall not include, and Tenant shall not have
any obligation to pay for, the following (the “Expense Exclusions”):
(i) Leasing commissions, attorneys’ fees, costs, disbursements, and other expenses incurred in
connection with negotiations or disputes with tenants, or in connection with leasing, renovating,
or improving space for tenants or other occupants or prospective tenants or other occupants of the
Building or Project.
6
(ii) The cost of any service sold to any tenant (including Tenant) or other occupant for which
Landlord is actually reimbursed as an additional charge or rental over and above the basic rent and
escalations payable under the lease with that tenant.
(iii) Any depreciation on the Building or Project.
(iv) Expenses in connection with services or other benefits of a type that are not provided to
Tenant but which are provided to and actually paid for by another tenant or occupant of the
Building or Project.
(v) Costs incurred due to Landlord’s intentional violation of any terms or conditions of this
Lease or any other lease relating to the Building or Project.
(vi) All interest, loan fees, and other carrying costs related to any mortgage or deed of
trust encumbering the Project, and all rental and other amounts payable due under any ground
affecting the Project.
(vii) Any compensation paid to clerks, attendants, or other persons in commercial concessions
operated by Landlord.
(viii) Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 21 and 22 below, any costs of maintenance or
repairs resulting from a casualty or condemnation (other than insurance deductibles which shall be
governed by Paragraph 4(b)(ii) above;
(ix) Costs for sculpture, paintings, or other objects of art (nor insurance thereon or
extraordinary security in connection therewith).
(x) Wages, salaries, or other compensation paid to any executive employees above the grade of
senior property manager.
(xi) The cost of containing, removing, or otherwise remediating any contamination of the
Property (including the underlying land and ground water) by any toxic or hazardous materials
(including, without limitation, asbestos and “PCBs”) where such contamination existed prior to the
date of this Lease.
(d) Payment of Additional Rent.
(i) Within ninety (90) days of the end of the Base Year and each Computation Year or as soon
thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall give to Tenant notice of Landlord’s estimate of the total
amounts that will be payable by Tenant under Paragraph 4(b) for the following Computation Year, and
Tenant shall pay such estimated Additional Rent on a monthly basis, in advance, on the first day of
each month. Tenant shall continue to make said monthly payments until notified by Landlord of a
change therein. If at any time or times Landlord determines that the amounts payable under
Paragraph 4(b) for the current Computation Year will vary from Landlord’s estimate given to Tenant,
Landlord, by notice to Tenant, may revise the estimate for such Computation Year, and subsequent
payments by Tenant for such Computation Year shall be based upon such revised estimate. By April 1
of each calendar year following the initial Computation Year, Landlord shall endeavor to provide to
Tenant a statement showing the actual
7
Additional Rent due to Landlord for the prior Computation Year. If the total of the monthly
payments of Additional Rent that Tenant has made for the prior Computation Year is less than the
actual Additional Rent chargeable to Tenant for such prior Computation Year, then Tenant shall pay
the difference in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after receipt of such statement from Landlord.
Any overpayment by Tenant of Additional Rent for the prior Computation Year shall, at Landlord’s
option, be either credited towards the Additional Rent next due or returned to Tenant in a lump sum
payment within thirty (30) days after delivery of such statement.
(ii) Landlord’s then-current annual operating and capital budgets for the Building and the
Project or the pertinent part thereof shall be used for purposes of calculating Tenant’s monthly
payment of estimated Additional Rent for the current year, subject to adjustment as provided above.
Landlord shall make the final determination of Additional Rent for the year in which this Lease
terminates as soon as possible after termination of such year. Even though the Term has expired
and Tenant has vacated the Premises, with respect to the year in which this Lease expires or
terminates, Tenant shall remain liable for payment of any amount due to Landlord in excess of the
estimated Additional Rent previously paid by Tenant, and, conversely, Landlord shall promptly
return to Tenant any overpayment. Failure of Landlord to submit statements as called for herein
shall not be deemed a waiver of Tenant’s obligation to pay Additional Rent as herein provided.
(iii) With respect to Operating Expenses, Insurance Expenses, Utility Expenses or Taxes which
Landlord allocates to the Building, Tenant’s “Proportionate Share” shall be the
percentage set forth in the Basic Lease Information as Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the
Building, as adjusted by Landlord from time to time for changes in the physical size of the
Premises or the Building, whether such changes in size are due to an addition to or a sale or
conveyance of a portion of the Building or otherwise. With respect to Operating Expenses,
Insurance Expenses, Utility Expenses or Taxes which Landlord allocates to the Project as a whole or
to only a portion of the Project, Tenant’s “Proportionate Share” shall be, with respect
to Operating Expenses, Insurance Expenses, Utility Expenses or Taxes which Landlord allocates to
the Project as a whole, the percentage set forth in the Basic Lease Information as Tenant’s
Proportionate Share of the Project and, with respect to Operating Expenses, Insurance Expenses,
Utility Expenses or Taxes which Landlord allocates to only a portion of the Project, a percentage
calculated by Landlord from time to time in its reasonable discretion and furnished to Tenant in
writing, in either case as adjusted by Landlord from time to time for changes in the physical size
of the Premises or the Project, whether such changes in size are due to an addition to or a sale or
conveyance of a portion of the Project or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may
equitably adjust Tenant’s Proportionate Share(s) for all or part of any item of expense or cost
reimbursable by Tenant that relates to a repair, replacement, or service that benefits only the
Premises or only a portion of the Building and/or the Project or that varies with the occupancy of
the Building and/or the Project. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant
understands and agrees that Landlord shall have the right to adjust Tenant’s Proportionate Share(s)
of any Utility Expenses based upon Tenant’s use of the Utilities or similar services as reasonably
estimated and determined by Landlord based upon factors such as size of the Premises and intensity
of use of such Utilities by Tenant such that Tenant shall pay the portion of such charges
reasonably consistent with Tenant’s use of such Utilities and similar services. If Tenant disputes
any such estimate or determination of Utility Expenses, then Tenant shall either pay the estimated
amount or, with the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval may be
8
given or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, cause the Premises to be
separately metered at Tenant’s sole expense.
(iv) In the event the average occupancy level of the Building or the Project for the Base Year
and/or any subsequent Computation Year is not ninety-five percent (95%) or more of full occupancy,
then the Operating Expenses for such year shall be apportioned among the tenants by the Landlord to
reflect those costs which would have occurred had the Building or the Project, as applicable, been
ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during such year.
(v) In the event that the Commencement Date shall be a day other than the first day of a
Computation Year or the Expiration Date or other termination of this Lease shall be a day other
than the last day of a Computation Year, the amounts payable by Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 4(b)
above with respect to the year in which such Commencement Date or Expiration Date (or other
termination of this Lease) occurs will be prorated on the basis on which the number of days of the
Term included in such year bears to three hundred sixty-five (365).
(vi) Landlord shall have no obligation to return, rebate or credit to Tenant any refund,
rebate, or return of Operating Expenses received by Landlord after the date which is eighteen (18)
months after the Expiration Date of this Lease.
(e) General Payment Terms. The Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums payable by
Tenant to Landlord hereunder, including, without limitation, any late charges assessed pursuant to
Paragraph 6 below and any interest assessed pursuant to Paragraph 45 below, are referred to as the
“Rent.” All Rent shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America and
through a domestic branch of a United States financial institution. Checks are to be made payable
to “0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx Investors llc” and shall be mailed to: Department 33149,
X.X. Xxx 00000, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000-0000 or to such other person or place as Landlord
may, from time to time, designate to Tenant in writing. The Rent for any fractional part of a
calendar month at the commencement or termination of the Term shall be a prorated amount of the
Rent for a full calendar month based upon a thirty (30) day month.
(f) Statements Binding. Every statement given by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 4(a) above
shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless (i) within ninety (90) days after the receipt of
such statement Tenant shall notify Landlord that it disputes the correctness thereof, specifying
the particular respects in which the statement is claimed to be incorrect, and (ii) if such dispute
shall not have been settled by agreement, Tenant shall submit the dispute to arbitration within
ninety (90) days after receipt of the statement. Pending the determination of such dispute by
agreement or arbitration as aforesaid, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of such
statement, pay Additional Rent in accordance with Landlord’s statement and such payment shall be
without prejudice to Tenant’s position. If the dispute shall be determined in Tenant’s favor,
Landlord shall forthwith pay Tenant the amount of Tenant’s overpayment of Additional Rent resulting
from compliance with Landlord’s statement.
(g) Audit Rights. Provided Tenant notifies Landlord in accordance with the terms of Paragraph
4(f) above that Tenant disputes a statement received from Landlord, Tenant or its CPA (as defined
below) shall have the right, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, provided Tenant utilizes a
Certified Public Accountant (the “CPA”) compensated solely on an hourly basis, upon
9
at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice to Landlord at any time during regular business hours,
to audit, review and photocopy Landlord’s records pertaining to Operating Expenses for the
immediately previous calendar year only. Tenant shall complete the audit and present any disputed
charges to Landlord, in writing, within six months of receipt of Landlord’s statement pursuant to
Paragraph 4(c) above. If, following Landlord’s receipt of the audit and any disputed charges (the
“Report Date”), Landlord disputes the findings contained therein, and Landlord and
Tenant are not able to resolve their differences within thirty (30) days following the Report Date,
the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration as follows: Landlord and Tenant shall each
designate an independent certified public accountant, which shall in turn jointly select a third
independent Certified Public Accountant (the “Third CPA”). The Third CPA, within
thirty (30) days of selection, shall, at Tenant’s sole expense, audit the relevant records and
certify the proper amount within. That certification shall be final and conclusive. If the Third
CPA determines that the amount of Operating Expenses billed to Tenant was incorrect, the
appropriate party shall pay to the other party the deficiency or overpayment, as applicable, within
thirty (30) days following delivery of the Third Party CPA’s decision, without interest. If the
Third CPA determines that the actual amount of Operating Expenses paid by Tenant during the period
covered by such statement (“Expense Period”) exceeds the amount properly payable by
Tenant hereunder during such Expense Period by an amount greater than five percent (5%) of the
actual Operating Expenses properly chargeable to Tenant during such Expense Period, then Landlord
shall pay for the cost of the CPA and the Third CPA. In all other cases, Tenant shall pay for the
cost of the Third CPA. Tenant agrees to keep all information thereby obtained by Tenant
confidential and to obtain the agreement of its CPA and Third CPA to keep all such information
confidential. Tenant shall provide a copy of such CPA agreements to Landlord promptly upon
request.
5. Utilities and Services
(a) From 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays (“Normal Business Hours” (excluding
legal holidays)), Landlord shall furnish to the Premises electricity for lighting and operation of
low-power usage office machines, water, heat and air conditioning, and elevator service. During
all other hours, Landlord shall furnish such service except for heat and air conditioning.
Landlord shall provide janitorial services for the Premises each day on weekdays (excluding legal
holidays) in a manner determined reasonably necessary by Landlord for a Class A building standard.
Tenant shall separately arrange with, and pay directly to, the applicable local public authorities
or utilities, as the case may be, for the furnishing, installation and maintenance of all telephone
services and equipment as may be required by Tenant in the use of the Premises. Landlord shall not
be liable for any damages resulting from interruption of, or Tenant’s inability to receive such
service, and any such inability shall not relieve Tenant of any of its obligations under this
Lease. If at any time during the Term Landlord shall determine that installation of a separate
electrical meter for equipment or systems located within the Premises is necessary or desirable as
a result of Tenant’s excessive electrical usage, then Tenant shall pay the cost of installing and
maintaining such meter and the cost of Tenant’s electrical usage as measured by such meter.
Tenant acknowledges that certain equipment installed in the server room located on the ground floor
portion of Premises is separately metered and that Tenant shall pay the cost of Tenant’s electrical
usage as measured by such meter; provided, however that nothing contained herein shall be
interpreted to prohibit or limit Tenant’s ability to make use of the non-separately
10
metered circuits for the operation of low-power usage office machines consistent with general
office usage.
(b) If requested by Tenant, Landlord shall furnish heat and air conditioning at times other
than Normal Business Hours (“After Hours HVAC”) and Landlord’s standard hourly charge
for services shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent, within thirty (30) days following invoice.
As of the Lease Date, Landlord’s standard hourly charge for After Hours HVAC is Twenty-Five
Dollars ($25.00) per one-half (1/2) floor. Landlord’s standard charge for After Hours HVAC shall
be based on Landlord’s actual direct utility costs, plus Landlord’s other direct costs, including a
reasonable depreciation factor or replacement reserve for the system on account of said additional
hours of operation so as to reimburse Landlord for the actual cost to Landlord to supply the
service plus a reasonable reserve for depreciation or replacement of the HVAC equipment, but
without a profit to Landlord.
(c) Without limiting the terms of Paragraph 5(a) above, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has
contracted with Pacific Gas & Electric Company to provide electricity for the Building, and that
Landlord reserves the right to change the provider of such service at any time and from time to
time in Landlord’s sole discretion (any such provider being referred to herein as the
“Electric Service Provider”). Tenant shall obtain and accept electrical service for
the Premises only from and through Landlord, in the manner and to the extent expressly provided in
this Lease, at all times during the Term, and Tenant shall have no right (and hereby waives any
right Tenant may otherwise have) (i) to contract with or otherwise obtain any electrical service
for or with respect to the Premises or Tenant’s operations therein from any provider of electrical
service other than the Electric Service Provider, or (ii) to enter into any separate or direct
contract or other similar arrangement with the Electric Service Provider for the provision of
electrical service to Tenant at the Premises. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and the
Electric Service Provider at all times to facilitate the delivery of electrical service to Tenant
at the Premises and to the Building, including, without limitation, allowing Landlord and the
Electric Service Provider, and their respective agents and contractors, (A) to install, repair,
replace, improve and remove and any and all electric lines, feeders, risers, junction boxes,
wiring, and other electrical equipment, machinery and facilities now or hereafter located within
the Building or the Premises for the purpose of providing electrical service to or within the
Premises or the Building, and (B) reasonable access for the purpose of maintaining, repairing,
replacing or upgrading such electrical service from time to time. Tenant shall provide such
information and specifications regarding Tenant’s use or projected use of electricity at the
Premises as shall be required from time to time by Landlord or the Electric Service Provider to
efficiently provide electrical service to the Premises or the Building. In no event shall Landlord
be liable or responsible for any loss, damage, expense or liability, including, without limitation,
loss of business or any consequential damages, arising from any failure or inadequacy of the
electrical service being provided to the Premises or the Building, whether resulting from any
change, failure, interference, disruption, or defect in the supply or character of the electrical
service furnished to the Premises or the Building, or arising from the partial or total
unavailability of electrical service to the Premises or the Building, from any cause whatsoever, or
otherwise, nor shall any such failure, inadequacy, change, interference, disruption, defect or
unavailability constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, or entitle Tenant to any
abatement or diminution of Rent or otherwise relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this
Lease.
11
(d) Tenant acknowledges that the Premises, the Building and/or the Project may become subject
to the rationing of Utility services or restrictions on Utility use as required by a public utility
company, governmental agency or other similar entity having jurisdiction thereof. Tenant
acknowledges and agrees that its tenancy and occupancy hereunder shall be subject to such rationing
or restrictions as may be imposed upon Landlord, Tenant, the Premises, the Building and/or the
Project, and Tenant shall in no event be excused or relieved from any covenant or obligation to be
kept or performed by Tenant by reason of any such rationing or restrictions. Tenant agrees to
comply with reasonable energy conservation and carbon reduction programs implemented by Landlord by
reason of rationing, restrictions or Laws.
(e) Unless caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Landlord shall
not be liable for any loss, injury or damage to property caused by or resulting from any variation,
interruption, or failure of Utilities due to any cause whatsoever, or from failure to make any
repairs or perform any maintenance. No temporary interruption or failure of such services incident
to the making of repairs, alterations, improvements, or due to accident, strike, or conditions or
other events shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations
hereunder. Unless caused by the sole gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, in no
event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any damage to the Premises or for any loss, damage or
injury to any property therein or thereon occasioned by bursting, rupture, leakage or overflow of
any plumbing or other pipes (including, without limitation, water, steam, and/or refrigerant
lines), sprinklers, tanks, drains, drinking fountains or washstands, or other similar cause in,
above, upon or about the Premises, the Building, or the Project.
(f) Landlord makes no representation with respect to the adequacy or fitness of the
air-conditioning or ventilation equipment in the Building to maintain temperatures which may be
required for, or because of, any equipment of Tenant, other than normal fractional horsepower
office equipment, or occupancy of the Premises by more than one person per 200 rentable square
feet. Landlord shall have no liability for loss or damage in connection therewith. Tenant shall
not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, use heat-generating machines, machines other than
normal fractional horsepower office machines, equipment or lighting other than Building-standard
lights in the Premises, which may affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air
conditioning system or increase the water normally furnished for the Premises by Landlord pursuant
to the terms of this Paragraph 5. Landlord shall have the right to condition any such consent on
the installation of supplementary air conditioning units or other facilities in the Premises,
including supplementary or additional metering devices, and the cost thereof, including the cost of
installation, operation and maintenance, increased wear and tear on existing equipment and other
similar charges, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon billing by Landlord. Tenant shall not
use water or heat or air conditioning in excess of that normally supplied by Landlord. Tenant’s
consumption of electricity shall not exceed the Building’s capacity considering all other tenants
of the Building.
(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Premises is made untenantable as a
result of an interruption in electrical service as provided by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 5(a)
above, then (i) Landlord shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to restore the same
as soon as is reasonably possible, (ii) if, despite such commercially reasonable good faith efforts
by Landlord, such interruption persists for a period in excess of five (5) consecutive business
days, then Tenant, as its sole remedy, shall be entitled to receive an abatement of Base
12
Rent payable hereunder during the period beginning on the sixth (6th) consecutive business day
of such interruption and ending on the day the utility or service has been restored; provided,
however, that in the event such interruption is not due to Landlord’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct, then such abatement shall only apply to the extent Landlord collects or is entitled to
collect proceeds under the policy of rental-loss insurance the cost of which has been included in
Operating Expenses and the proceeds from which are allocable to the Premises.
6. Late Charge
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant hereby acknowledges
that late payment to Landlord of Rent, or other amounts due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur
costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to
ascertain. If any Rent or other sums due from Tenant are not received by Landlord or by Landlord’s
designated agent within three (3) days after their due date, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a
late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such overdue amount, plus any costs and attorneys’ fees
incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due
hereunder; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to one (1) notice of late payment and a
five (5) day cure period in any twelve month period before any such late charge accrues. Landlord
and Tenant hereby agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost
that Landlord will incur by reason of Tenant’s late payment and shall not be construed as a
penalty. Landlord’s acceptance of such late charges shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s
default with respect to such overdue amount or estop Landlord from exercising any of the other
rights and remedies granted under this Lease.
7. Security Deposit
(a) Concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a
security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) in an initial aggregate amount of $600,000
and subject to reduction from time to time, in accordance with the provision of this Paragraph
7(a). The Security Deposit may be in the form of a Cash Deposit (as hereinafter defined) or Letter
of Credit (as hereinafter defined) or combination of the forgoing as provided herein. In the event
of a draw upon the Letter of Credit or application of the Cash Deposit by Landlord, Tenant shall
have an obligation to, within ten (10) business days following such draw or application, post an
additional Cash Deposit or Letter of Credit (or increase the stated amount of any Letter of Credit
previously provided to Landlord) such that the aggregate amount posted to Landlord as a Security
Deposit hereunder equals the then-applicable Security Deposit Value (as hereinafter defined). The
Letter of Credit shall be in the form of a clean, irrevocable, non-documentary and unconditional
letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) issued by and drawable upon a money center
bank or other financial institution that is approved by Landlord (the “Bank”) and meets
at least two of the following three ratings standards as to its unsecured and senior, long-term
debt obligations (not supported by third party credit enhancement): (a) “A2” or better by Xxxxx’x
Investors Service, or its successor, (b) “A” or better by Standard & Poor’s Rating Service, or its
successor; or (c) “A” or better by Fitch Ratings, or its successor (the “Rating
Standard”). As of the Lease Date, Landlord has approved Silicon Valley Bank as the Bank,
subject to maintenance of the Rating Standard pursuant to the terms hereof. The Letter of Credit
shall have a term of not less than one year, be payable upon presentation at a location in the
United States of America, be for the benefit of Landlord as security for the faithful
13
performance and observance by Tenant of the terms, provisions, and conditions of the Lease,
and otherwise be in a form and content reasonably acceptable to the Landlord. The “Security
Deposit Value” shall initially mean $600,000, provided that on each date set forth in the
column labeled “Security Deposit Reduction Date” below, but subject to the terms of the
paragraph immediately following the table below, the Security Deposit Value shall be reduced to the
corresponding amount set forth in the column labeled “Security Deposit Value” as set
forth below:
Security Deposit | ||||
Reduction Date | Security Deposit Value | |||
August 1, 2012 |
$ | 500,000 | ||
August 1, 2013 |
$ | 400,000 | ||
August 1, 2014 |
$ | 300,000 | ||
August 1, 2015 |
$ | 200,000 | ||
August 1, 2016 |
$ | 150,000 |
In addition to the foregoing scheduled reductions on the Security Deposit Reduction Dates, at such
time as Tenant achieves a fiscal quarter of positive “EBITDA” (earnings before interest expense,
income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, as certified to Landlord by Tenant’s
independent certified public accounting firm), the Security Deposit Value shall be reduced by
$100,000; provided, however that in no event shall the Security Deposit Value ever be less than One
Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during the twelve
(12) month period prior to any Security Deposit Reduction Date set forth in the table above (or
during the twelve (12) month period prior to Tenant achieving a fiscal quarter of EBITA), Tenant
had failed to make any monetary payments when due or a Default shall have occurred, then there
shall be no reduction of the Security Deposit Value on such Security Deposit Reduction Date or at
the time of such positive EBITA, but Tenant shall retain the right to have the Security Deposit
Value reduced on any subsequent Security Deposit Reduction Date on which the conditions to
reduction set forth herein are satisfied.
(b) If the expiration date of the Letter of Credit is earlier than the thirtieth (30th) day
after the Expiration Date of this Lease, then Tenant shall renew, replace or amend the Letter of
Credit, in the same form or another form reasonably acceptable to Landlord from time to time, no
later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Letter of Credit. If at any time the
face amount of the Letter of Credit is greater than the applicable Security Deposit Value as
determined above, then Landlord shall, upon reasonable prior notice from Tenant, cooperate with
Tenant and the Bank to cause the Letter of Credit to be reduced to reflect the correct Security
Deposit Value in accordance with the Bank’s procedures, including the execution of any documents as
required by the Bank’s standard procedures. If at any time the Bank that has issued the Letter of
Credit then being held by Landlord hereunder fails to meet the Rating Standard, then within ten
(10) business days after Landlord’s notice to Tenant of such failure, Tenant shall deliver (a) a
Cash Deposit and/or (b) a replacement Letter of Credit meeting the requirements of this Paragraph 7
from a Bank meeting the Rating Standard, in an aggregate amount equal to the then-applicable
Security Deposit Value. Upon receipt of such Cash Deposit and/or replacement Letter of Credit,
Landlord shall return the prior Letter of Credit to Bank and
14
take such other reasonable steps as are necessary to cause such prior Letter of Credit to be
cancelled.
(c) It is agreed that in the event that Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to (i) the payment of the Base
Rent and Additional Rent, (ii) the delivery of a Cash Deposit or replacement Letter of Credit
meeting the requirements of this Paragraph 7 from a Bank meeting the Rating Standard above within
ten (10) business days after Landlord’s notice to Tenant of such issuing Bank’s failure to meet the
Rating Standard, or (iii) the aforesaid agreement to cause the Bank to renew, amend or replace the
Letter of Credit to extend the expiration date thereof, then without waiving any of the Landlord’s
other rights and remedies under this Lease and after the expiration of any applicable cure period
set forth in Paragraph 24 of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to require the Bank to make
payment to Landlord of the amount required to cure such default or such other sum to compensate
Landlord for actual damages incurred in connection with such this Lease not to exceed the face
amount of the Letter of Credit; provided that in the case of a default described in clause (ii) or
(iii) above, Landlord shall have the right to draw the entire amount of the Letter of Credit, in
which case, Landlord shall hold the cash proceeds as security for the performance of Tenant’s
obligations under the Lease and either (x) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a replacement Letter of
Credit meeting the Rating Standard in the face amount of the then-applicable Security Deposit
Value; and upon such delivery of the replacement Letter of Credit, Landlord shall return the cash
proceeds from its draw on the previous Letter of Credit to Tenant (to the extent not properly
applied to cure any other default of Tenant hereunder); or (y) Landlord shall hold the cash
proceeds from its draw on the previous Letter of Credit, up to the amount of the then-applicable
Security Deposit Value, as a Cash Deposit (as defined below) and may apply the Cash Deposit or any
portion thereof as provided below, and shall return any amount in excess of the then-applicable
Security Deposit Value to Tenant.
(d) The Letter of Credit shall be transferable, at no charge to Landlord, upon reasonable
prior notice to the Bank subject to compliance with any reasonable transfer procedures set forth in
the Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not assign or delegate any of
its rights and duties with respect to the Letter of Credit (except with respect to the sale,
transfer, financing or leasing of Landlord’s interest in the Building) without prior notice to and
consent of Tenant, and any attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be null and
void.
(e) At all times until the Security Expiration Date, Tenant may provide the Security Deposit
in the form of cash (the “Cash Deposit”) in an amount such that the Landlord holds cash
and/or Letters of Credit (or any combination of the two) in an aggregate amount equal to the
then-applicable Security Deposit Value. At the reasonable request of Tenant, to the extent that
Landlord holds Cash Deposits and Letters of Credit in excess of the Security Deposit Value,
Landlord shall, as applicable, return such excess cash, reduce the stated amount of the Letter of
Credit by the amount of such excess or, in the case where the Cash Deposit equals the Security
Deposit Value, return the Letter of Credit to the Bank and take such other reasonable steps as are
necessary to cause such Letter of Credit to be cancelled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant
shall have no right to substitute a Cash Deposit for a Letter of Credit (or any portion thereof) at
any time during the continuance of a Default. The Cash Deposit shall be held by Landlord as
security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the provisions of this Lease to be
15
performed or observed by Tenant. If Tenant fails to pay rent or other charges due hereunder,
or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, Landlord may use, apply or
retain all or any portion of the Cash Deposit for the payment of any rent or other charge in
default, or for the payment of any other sum to which Landlord may become obligated by reason of
Tenant’s default, or to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage which Landlord may suffer
thereby. Without in any way limiting Landlord’s obligation to return any portion of the Cash
Deposit in excess of the then-applicable Security Deposit Value, Tenant waives the provisions of
California Civil Code Section 1950.7, or any similar or successor laws now or hereinafter in
effect, to the extent only that it restricts Landlord’s use or application of the Cash Deposit, or
that provide specific time periods for return of the Cash Deposit. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, and notwithstanding the provisions of the following paragraph, Tenant expressly
agrees that if Landlord terminates this Lease due to a Default or if Tenant terminates this Lease
in a bankruptcy proceeding, Landlord shall be entitled to hold the Cash Deposit until the amount of
damages recoverable pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1951.2 is finally determined.
(f) If Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants
and conditions of this Lease, the Letter of Credit or any portion of any sum collected by Landlord
thereunder from the Bank not theretofore applied by Landlord, or, if applicable, the Cash Deposit
or so much thereof as has not theretofore been applied by Landlord, together with any other portion
of any other sums then held by Landlord as security, shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30)
days after the later of the Expiration Date or Tenant’s vacation and surrender of the Leased
Premises in accordance with the requirements of this Lease (such thirtieth day be defined herein as
the “Security Expiration Date”).
8. Possession
(a) Tenant’s Right of Possession. Subject to Paragraph 8(b), Tenant shall be entitled to
possession of the Premises upon commencement of the Term.
(b) Early Access. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 8(a), Tenant shall be permitted
to enter upon the Premises upon April 1, 2010 (the “Estimated Delivery Date”), at all
reasonable times for the sole purposes of commencing construction of the Tenant Improvements,
installing furniture, equipment and cabling and otherwise readying the Premises for Tenant’s
occupancy; provided, however, that (i) Tenant shall not unreasonably interfere with or disrupt any
work being performed by Landlord in the Premises during such early occupancy, (ii) prior to any
such entry, Tenant shall provide Landlord with proof of Tenant’s insurance as set forth in
Paragraph 15 of this Lease, and (iii) Tenant acknowledges that Schwab shall continue to have access
to the server room portion of the Premises located on the first floor of the Building for the
exclusive use of the IT Equipment (hereinafter defined) through April 30, 2010. Such entry upon
the Premises shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not
be required to pay Base Rent or Additional Rent during such early occupancy period. All materials,
work, installations, equipment and decorations of any nature brought upon or installed by Tenant in
the Premises prior to the Commencement Date shall be at Tenant’s sole risk.
(c) Delay in Delivering Possession. If for any reason whatsoever, Landlord cannot deliver
possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Estimated Delivery Date, this Lease shall not
be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord, or Landlord’s agents, advisors,
16
employees, partners, shareholders, directors, invitees, independent contractors or Landlord’s
Investment Advisors (as hereinafter defined) (collectively, “Landlord’s Agents”), be
liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, if Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant by May 1, 2010, then
Tenant shall be entitled to one day of free Base Rent and Additional Rent for each day that the
Premises is not available after May 1, 2010. Additionally, if Landlord can not deliver possession
of the Premises to Tenant by May 1, 2010, then Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease
by written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days thereafter, unless Landlord delivers possession
of the Premises to Tenant prior to the expiration of such ten (10) day period, and, upon any such
termination, all deposits and prepayments shall be refunded. If Landlord has been unable, despite
its commercially reasonable efforts, to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant by July 1,
2010, then Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant, and,
upon any such termination, all deposits and prepayments shall be refunded.] The aforesaid right of
free and termination rent shall be the sole remedies available to Tenant as a result of Landlord’s
failure to deliver the Premises to Tenant on a timely basis as provided in this Paragraph 8(b).
The Expiration Date shall be extended by the same number of days that Tenant’s possession of the
Premises was delayed beyond the Estimated Delivery Date.
9. Use of Premises
(a) Permitted Use. The use of the Premises by Tenant and Tenant’s agents, advisors,
employees, partners, shareholders, directors, customers, invitees and independent contractors
(collectively, “Tenant’s Agents”) shall be solely for the Permitted Use specified in
the Basic Lease Information and for no other use. Tenant shall not permit any objectionable or
unpleasant odor, smoke, dust, gas, noise or vibration to emanate from or near the Premises. The
Premises shall not be used to create any nuisance or trespass, for any illegal purpose, for any
purpose not permitted by Laws, for any purpose that would invalidate the insurance or increase the
premiums for insurance on the Premises, the Building or the Project or for any purpose or in any
manner that would interfere with other tenants’ use or occupancy of the Project. If any of
Tenant’s office machines or equipment disturb any other tenant in the Building, then Tenant shall
provide adequate insulation or take such other action as may be necessary to eliminate the noise or
disturbance. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, any increases in premiums on
policies resulting from Tenant’s Permitted Use or any other use or action by Tenant or Tenant’s
Agents which increases Landlord’s premiums or requires additional coverage by Landlord to insure
the Premises. Tenant agrees not to overload the floor(s) of the Building.
(b) Compliance with Governmental Regulations and Private Restrictions. Tenant and Tenant’s
Agents shall, at Tenant’s expense, faithfully observe and comply with (i) all municipal, state and
federal laws, statutes, codes, rules, regulations, ordinances, requirements, and orders
(collectively, “Laws”), now in force or which may hereafter be in force pertaining to
the Premises and such compliance is due to Tenant’s particular use of the Premises, the Building or
the Project; (ii) all recorded covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project
(“Private Restrictions”) now in force or which may hereafter be in force; and (iii) the
Rules and Regulations (as defined in Paragraph 41 of this Lease). Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, to the extent Landlord is required by the city or county in which the Building is
located to maintain carpooling and public transit programs, Tenant shall cooperate in the
implementation and use of these programs by and among Tenant’s employees. The judgment of
17
any court of competent jurisdiction, or the admission of Tenant in any action or proceeding
against Tenant, whether Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has violated any such Laws
or Private Restrictions, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.
(c) Compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act. The Premises, the Building and/or the
Project may be subject to, among other Laws, the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12101
et seq., including, but not limited to, Title III thereof, and all regulations and guidelines
related thereto, together with any and all laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes and statutes
now or hereafter enacted by local or state agencies having jurisdiction thereof, including, without
limitation, all requirements of Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, as the same may be
in effect on the date of this Lease and may be hereafter modified, amended or supplemented
(collectively, the “ADA”). Any Alterations to be constructed hereunder shall comply
with the ADA, and all costs incurred to comply therewith shall be a part of and included in the
cost of the Alterations, as applicable. Tenant shall be solely responsible for conducting its own
independent investigation of this matter and for ensuring that the design of all Tenant
Improvements and Alterations strictly complies with all requirements of the ADA. Subject to
reimbursement pursuant to Paragraph 4 above, if any barrier removal work or other work is required
to the Building, the Common Areas or the Project under the ADA, then such work shall be the sole
responsibility of Landlord; provided, however, that if such work is required under the ADA as a
result of Tenant’s particular use of the Premises or any Alteration (as hereinafter defined) made
to the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant, then such work shall be performed by Landlord at the
sole cost and expense of Tenant. Within ten (10) days after receipt, Tenant shall advise Landlord
in writing, and provide Landlord with copies of (as applicable), any notices alleging violation of
the ADA relating to any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Project; any claims made or
threatened orally or in writing regarding noncompliance with the ADA and relating to any portion of
the Premises, the Building, or the Project; or any governmental or regulatory actions or
investigations instituted or threatened regarding noncompliance with the ADA and relating to any
portion of the Premises, the Building or the Project. Tenant shall and hereby agrees to protect,
defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold Landlord and Landlord’s Agents
harmless and indemnify Landlord and Landlord’s Agents from and against all liabilities, damages,
claims, losses, penalties, judgments, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs of
court and expenses necessary in the prosecution or defense of any litigation including the
enforcement of this provision) arising from or in any way related to, directly or indirectly,
Tenant’s or Tenant’s Agents’ violation or alleged violation of the ADA arising in connection with
Tenant’s particular use of the Premises or any Alteration made to the Premises by or on behalf of
Tenant. Tenant agrees that the obligations of Tenant herein shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease.
(d) Landlord Representations. Landlord represents that it has not received any written
notice, and Landlord has no actual knowledge, that the Premises or the Common Areas of the Project
are in violation of any Laws or the ADA, which violation remains uncured as of the Lease Date.
(e) Roof Access. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the non-exclusive right (it
being understood that Landlord may grant, extend or renew similar rights to others) to install,
maintain, and from time to time replace an antenna or satellite dish (a “Dish”) on the
roof of the Building, provided that prior to commencing any installation or maintenance, Tenant
shall (i)
18
obtain Landlord’s prior approval of the proposed size, weight and location of the Dish and
method for fastening the Dish to the roof, (ii) such installation and/or replacement shall comply
strictly with all Laws and the conditions of any bond or warranty maintained by Landlord on the
roof, (iii) use the Dish solely for its internal use, (iv) not grant any right to use of the Dish
to any other party, and (v) obtain, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any necessary federal,
state, and municipal permits, licenses and approvals, and deliver copies thereof to Landlord.
Landlord may supervise or perform any roof penetration related to the installation of a Dish, and
Landlord may charge the cost thereof to Tenant. Tenant agrees that all installation, construction
and maintenance shall be performed in a neat, responsible, and workmanlike manner, using generally
acceptable construction standards, consistent with such reasonable requirements as shall be imposed
by Landlord. Tenant further agrees to label each cable or wire placed by Tenant in the
telecommunications pathways of the Building, with identification information as required by
Landlord. Tenant shall repair any damage to the Building caused by Tenant’s installation,
maintenance, replacement, use or removal of the Dish. The Dish shall remain the property of
Tenant, and Tenant may remove the Dish at its cost at any time during the Term. Tenant shall
remove the Dish at Tenant’s cost and expense upon the expiration or termination of this Lease.
Tenant agrees that the Dish, and any wires, cables or connections relating thereto, and the
installation, maintenance and operation thereof shall in no way interfere with the use and
enjoyment of the Building, or the operation of communications (including, without limitation, other
satellite dishes) or computer devices by Landlord or by other tenants or occupants of the Project.
If such interference shall occur, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice thereof and Tenant
shall correct the same within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of such notice. Landlord reserves
the right to disconnect power to any Dish if Tenant fails to correct such interference within
twenty-four (24) hours after such notice. Landlord makes no warranty or representation that the
Building or any portions thereof are suitable for the use of a Dish, it being assumed that Tenant
has satisfied itself thereof. Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord
and Landlord’s Agents from and against claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses of every
kind and nature, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by or asserted against Landlord arising out of
Tenant’s installation, maintenance, replacement, use or removal of the Dish.
10. Acceptance of Premises
(a) By its execution hereof, Tenant acknowledges that it had the opportunity to fully inspect
the Premises. Tenant hereby certifies to Landlord that neither Tenant nor any of its employees,
agents, or contractors observed or has any knowledge of any mold, mildew, Mold Conditions (as
hereinafter defined) or moisture within the Premises. By accepting Landlord’s delivery of the
Premises, Tenant accepts the Premises as suitable for Tenant’s intended use and as being in good
and sanitary operating order, condition and repair, as is, and without representation or
warranty by Landlord as to the condition, use or occupancy which may be made thereof. Any
exceptions to the foregoing must be by written agreement executed by Landlord and Tenant.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 10(a), Landlord shall cause (i) the server
room portion of the Premises located on the ground floor to be separately demised at Landlord’s
sole cost and expense in a manner consistent with the floor plan attached as Exhibit A,
provided that the door to the office portion of the server room shall be in a location mutually
agreed by
19
Landlord and Tenant, and (ii) Schwab (hereinafter defined) to remove all existing furniture
from the portion of the Premises located on the fifth floor of the Building, and Landlord shall
otherwise deliver the same in broom-clean condition and free from debris. In connection with
Xxxxxx’x removal of such furniture, Landlord shall request that Schwab cause all cabling and wiring
routing through such furniture (the “Existing Wiring”) to terminate so as to facilitate
reuse by Tenant.
11. Surrender
Tenant agrees that on the last day of the Term, or on the sooner termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord (a) in good condition and repair (damage by acts of
God, fire, and normal wear and tear excepted), broom clean and free of debris, and (b) otherwise in
accordance with Paragraph 32(f). Normal wear and tear shall not include any damage or
deterioration that would have been prevented by proper maintenance by Tenant, or Tenant otherwise
performing all of its obligations under this Lease. On or before the expiration or sooner
termination of this Lease, (i) Tenant shall remove all of Tenant’s Property (as hereinafter
defined) and Tenant’s signage from the Premises, the Building and the Project and repair any damage
caused by such removal, and (ii) Landlord may, by notice to Tenant given not later than ninety (90)
days prior to the Expiration Date (except in the event of a termination of this Lease prior to the
scheduled Expiration Date, in which event no advance notice shall be required), require Tenant at
Tenant’s expense to remove any or all Alterations (but expressly excluding the Tenant
Improvements), and to repair any damage caused by such removal. Any of Tenant’s Property not so
removed by Tenant as required herein shall be deemed abandoned and may be stored, removed, and
disposed of by Landlord at Tenant’s expense, and Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for any
damages resulting from Landlord’s retention and disposition of such property; provided, however,
that Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord for all costs incurred in storing and disposing of such
abandoned property of Tenant. All Tenant Improvements and Alterations except those which Landlord
requires Tenant to remove shall remain in the Premises as the property of Landlord.
12. Alterations and Additions
(a) Tenant shall not make, or permit to be made, any alteration, addition or improvement
(hereinafter referred to individually as an “Alteration” and collectively as the
“Alterations”) to the Premises or any part thereof without the prior written consent of
Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Landlord shall
have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to consent or to withhold its consent to any
Alteration which affects the structural portions of the Premises, the Building or the Project or
the Systems serving the Premises, the Building and/or the Project or any portion thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to make cosmetic alterations in the
Premises, without the prior consent of Landlord, so long Tenant provides Landlord with no fewer
than fifteen (15) days prior written notice, and such alterations (i) otherwise comply with the
provisions of this Xxxxxxxxx 00, (xx) do not exceed an aggregate cost in excess of $30,000 in any
lease year, (iii) do not affect the structural portions of the Building or the Project or the
Systems serving the Premises, the Building and/or the Project or any portion thereof.
20
(b) Any Alteration to the Premises shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in
compliance with all applicable Laws and all requirements requested by Landlord, including, without
limitation, the requirements of any insurer providing coverage for the Premises or the Project or
any part thereof, and in accordance with plans and specifications approved in writing by Landlord,
and shall be constructed and installed by a contractor approved in writing by Landlord. In
connection with any Alteration, Tenant shall deliver plans and specifications therefor to Landlord.
As a further condition to giving consent, Landlord may require Tenant to provide Landlord, at
Tenant’s sole cost and expense, a payment and performance bond in form acceptable to Landlord, in a
principal amount not less than one and one-half times the estimated costs of such Alterations, to
ensure Landlord against any liability for mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens and to ensure
completion of work. Before Alterations may begin, valid building permits or other required permits
or licenses must be furnished to Landlord, and, once the Alterations begin, Tenant will diligently
and continuously pursue their completion. Landlord may monitor construction of the Alterations and
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual out-of-pocket third-party costs in reviewing plans
and documents. Tenant shall maintain during the course of construction, at its sole cost and
expense, builders’ risk insurance for the amount of the completed value of the Alterations on an
all-risk non-reporting form covering all improvements under construction, including building
materials, and other insurance in amounts and against such risks as Landlord shall reasonably
require in connection with the Alterations. In addition to and without limitation on the
generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall ensure that its contractor(s) procure and maintain in
full force and effect during the course of construction a “broad form” commercial general liability
and property damage policy of insurance naming Landlord, Tenant, Landlord’s Investment Adviser, any
property manager designated by Landlord and Landlord’s lenders as additional insureds. The minimum
limit of coverage of the aforesaid policy shall be in the amount of not less than Three Million
Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for injury or death of one person in any one accident or occurrence and in
the amount of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for injury or death of more than
one person in any one accident or occurrence, and shall contain a severability of interest clause
or a cross liability endorsement. Such insurance shall further insure Landlord and Tenant against
liability for property damage of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00).
(c) All Alterations, including, but not limited to, heating, lighting, electrical, air
conditioning, fixed partitioning, drapery, wall covering and paneling, built-in cabinet work and
carpeting installations made by Tenant, together with all property that has become an integral part
of the Premises or the Building, shall at once be and become the property of Landlord, and shall
not be deemed trade fixtures or Tenant’s Property.
(d) No private telephone systems and/or other related computer or telecommunications equipment
or lines may be installed without Landlord’s prior written consent. If Landlord gives such
consent, all equipment must be installed within the Premises and, at the request of Landlord made
at any time prior to the expiration of the Term, removed upon the expiration or sooner termination
of this Lease and the Premises restored to the same condition as before such installation.
(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, before installing any equipment or lights
which generate an undue amount of heat in the Premises, or if Tenant plans to use any high-power
usage equipment in the Premises, Tenant shall obtain the written permission of
21
Landlord. Landlord may refuse to grant such permission unless Tenant agrees to pay the costs
to Landlord for installation of supplementary air conditioning capacity or electrical systems
necessitated by such equipment.
(f) Tenant agrees not to proceed to make any Alterations, notwithstanding consent from
Landlord to do so, until Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of the date Tenant desires to commence
construction or installation of such Alterations and Landlord has approved such date in writing, in
order that Landlord may post appropriate notices to avoid any liability to contractors or material
suppliers for payment for Tenant’s improvements. Tenant will at all times permit such notices to
be posted and to remain posted until the completion of work.
(g) Tenant shall not, at any time prior to or during the Term, directly or indirectly employ,
or permit the employment of, any contractor, mechanic or laborer in the Premises, whether in
connection with any Alteration or otherwise, if it is reasonably foreseeable that such employment
will materially interfere or cause any material conflict with other contractors, mechanics, or
laborers engaged in the construction, maintenance or operation of the Project by Landlord, Tenant
or others. In the event of any such interference or conflict, Tenant, upon demand of Landlord,
shall cause all contractors, mechanics or laborers causing such interference or conflict to leave
the Project immediately.
(h) Tenant shall not use or employ materials that are susceptible to the growth of mold,
particularly in areas where moisture accumulation is common.
13. Maintenance and Repairs of Premises
(a) Maintenance by Tenant. Throughout the Term, Tenant shall, at its sole expense, subject to
Paragraphs 5(a) and 13(b) hereof, (i) keep and maintain in good order and condition the Premises
and Tenant’s Property, (ii) keep and maintain in good order and condition, repair and replace all
of Tenant’s security systems in or about or serving the Premises, and (iii) maintain and replace
all specialty lamps, bulbs, starters and ballasts, except for any and all lighting fixtures
presently installed or similar or matching lighting fixtures which shall be installed as part of
the Tenant Improvements, for which Landlord shall be responsible to maintain and replace. Tenant
shall not do nor shall Tenant allow Tenant’s Agents to do anything to cause any damage,
deterioration or unsightliness to the Premises, the Building or the Project.
(b) Maintenance by Landlord. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 13(a), 21 and 22, and
further subject to Tenant’s obligation under Paragraph 4 to reimburse Landlord, in the form of
Additional Rent, for Tenant’s Proportionate Share(s) of the cost and expense of the following
items, Landlord shall repair and maintain the following items: the roof coverings (provided that
Tenant installs no additional air conditioning or other equipment on the roof that damages the roof
coverings, in which event Tenant shall pay all costs resulting from the presence of such additional
equipment); the Systems serving the Premises (excluding any specialty systems installed by or for
Tenant) and the Building; and the Parking Areas, pavement, landscaping, sprinkler systems,
sidewalks, driveways, curbs, and lighting systems in the Common Areas. Subject to the provisions
of Paragraphs 13(a), 21 and 22, Landlord, at its own cost and expense, agrees to repair and
maintain the following items: the structural portions of the roof (specifically excluding the roof
coverings), the foundation, the footings, the floor slab, and the load bearing
22
walls and exterior walls of the Building (excluding any glass and any routine maintenance,
including, without limitation, any painting, sealing, patching and waterproofing of such walls).
Notwithstanding anything in this Paragraph 13 to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to
either repair or to require Tenant to repair any damage to any portion of the Premises, the
Building and/or the Project caused by or created due to any act, omission, negligence or willful
misconduct of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents and to restore the Premises, the Building and/or the
Project, as applicable, to the condition existing prior to the occurrence of such damage; provided,
however, that in the event Landlord elects to perform such repair and restoration work, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection
therewith. Landlord’s obligation hereunder to repair and maintain is subject to the condition
precedent that Landlord shall have received written notice of the need for such repairs and
maintenance and a reasonable time to perform such repair and maintenance. Tenant shall promptly
report in writing to Landlord any defective condition known to it which Landlord is required to
repair.
(c) Tenant’s Waiver of Rights. Tenant hereby expressly waives all rights to make repairs at
the expense of Landlord or to terminate this Lease, as provided for in California Civil Code
Sections 1941 and 1942, and 1932(1), respectively, and any similar or successor statute or law in
effect or any amendment thereof during the Term.
14. Landlord’s Insurance
Landlord shall purchase and keep in force (i) commercial general liability insurance, with
minimum limits of coverage in the amount of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per
occurrence, and (ii) fire, extended coverage and “all risk” insurance covering the Building and the
Project. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with any and all reasonable
requirements pertaining to the Premises, the Building and the Project of any insurer necessary for
the maintenance of reasonable fire and commercial general liability insurance, covering the
Building and the Project. Landlord may maintain “Loss of Rents” insurance, insuring that the Rent
will be paid in a timely manner to Landlord for a period of at least twelve (12) months if the
Premises, the Building or the Project or any portion thereof are destroyed or rendered unusable or
inaccessible by any cause insured against under this Lease.
15. Tenant’s Insurance
(a) Commercial General Liability Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, secure and
keep in force a “broad form” commercial general liability insurance and property damage policy
covering the Premises, insuring Tenant, and naming Landlord, UBS Realty Investors llc, and
Landlord’s lenders as additional insureds (collectively, “Landlord’s Insureds”) against
any liability arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises. The
minimum limit of coverage of such policy shall be in the amount of not less than Three Million
Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for injury or death of one person in any one accident or occurrence and in
the amount of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for injury or death of more than
one person in any one accident or occurrence, shall include an extended liability endorsement
providing contractual liability coverage (which shall include coverage for Tenant’s indemnification
obligations in this Lease), and shall contain a severability of interest clause or a cross
liability endorsement. Such insurance shall further insure Landlord and Tenant against
23
liability for property damage of at least Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00). Following
expiration of the initial Term, Landlord may from time to time require reasonable increases in any
such limits if Landlord believes that additional coverage is necessary or desirable. The limit of
any insurance shall not limit the liability of Tenant hereunder. No policy maintained by Tenant
under this Paragraph 15(a) shall contain a deductible greater than Ten Thousand Dollars
($10,000.00). No policy shall be cancelable or subject to reduction of coverage without thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice to Landlord. Such policies of insurance shall be issued as primary
policies and not contributing with or in excess of coverage that Landlord may carry, by an
insurance company authorized to do business in the state/commonwealth in which the Premises are
located for the issuance of such type of insurance coverage and rated B+:XIII or better in Best’s
Key Rating Guide.
(b) Personal Property Insurance. Tenant shall maintain in full force and effect on all of its
personal property, furniture, furnishings, trade or business fixtures and equipment (collectively,
“Tenant’s Property”) on the Premises, a policy or policies of fire and extended
coverage insurance with standard coverage endorsement to the extent of the full replacement cost
thereof. No such policy shall contain a deductible greater than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00).
During the Term, the proceeds from any such policy or policies of insurance shall be used for the
repair or replacement of the fixtures and equipment so insured. Landlord shall have no interest in
the insurance upon Tenant’s equipment and fixtures and will sign all documents reasonably necessary
in connection with the settlement of any claim or loss by Tenant. Landlord will not carry
insurance on Tenant’s possessions.
(c) Worker’s Compensation Insurance; Employer’s Liability Insurance. Tenant shall, at
Tenant’s expense, maintain in full force and effect worker’s compensation insurance with not less
than the minimum limits required by law, and employer’s liability insurance with a minimum limit of
coverage of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00).
(d) Evidence of Coverage. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord certificates of insurance and true
and complete copies of any and all endorsements required herein for all insurance required to be
maintained by Tenant hereunder at the time of execution of this Lease by Tenant. Tenant shall, at
least ten (10) days prior to expiration of each policy, furnish Landlord with certificates of
renewal thereof. Each certificate shall expressly provide that such policies shall not be
cancelable or otherwise subject to modification except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
to Landlord and the other parties named as additional insureds as required in this Lease (except
for cancellation for nonpayment of premium, in which event cancellation shall not take effect until
at least ten (10) days’ notice has been given to Landlord).
16. Indemnification
(a) Of Landlord. Tenant shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and
Landlord’s Agents against and from any and all claims, suits, liabilities, judgments, costs,
demands, causes of action and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees,
costs and disbursements) arising from (i) the use of the Premises, the Building or the Project by
Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, or from any activity done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or Tenant’s
Agents in or about the Premises, the Building or the Project, including any mold or Mold
Conditions, and (ii) any act, neglect, fault, willful misconduct or omission of Tenant or
24
Tenant’s Agents, or from any breach or default in the terms of this Lease by Tenant or
Tenant’s Agents, and (iii) any action or proceeding brought on account of any matter in items (i)
or (ii). If any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord by reason of any such claim, upon
notice from Landlord, Tenant shall defend the same at Tenant’s expense by counsel reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord. As a material part of the consideration to Landlord, Tenant hereby
releases Landlord and Landlord’s Agents from responsibility for, waives its entire claim of
recovery for and assumes all risk of (A) damage to property or injury to persons in or about the
Premises, the Building or the Project from any cause whatsoever (except to the extent is caused by
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s Agents or by the failure of
Landlord to observe any of the terms and conditions of this Lease, if such failure has persisted
for an unreasonable period of time after written notice of such failure), or (B) loss resulting
from business interruption or loss of income at the Premises. The obligations of Tenant under this
Paragraph 16 shall survive any termination of this Lease.
(b) No Impairment of Insurance. The foregoing indemnity shall not relieve any insurance
carrier of its obligations under any policies required to be carried by either party pursuant to
this Lease, to the extent that such policies cover the peril or occurrence that results in the
claim that is subject to the foregoing indemnity.
17. Subrogation
Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive any claim against the other and its Agent(s) for any
loss or damage to any of their property located on or about the Premises, the Building or the
Project that is caused by or results from perils covered by property insurance carried by the
respective parties, to the extent of the proceeds of such insurance actually received with respect
to such loss or damage, whether or not due to the negligence of the other party or its Agents.
Because the foregoing waivers will preclude the assignment of any claim by way of subrogation to an
insurance company or any other person, each party shall immediately notify its insurer, in writing,
of the terms of these mutual waivers and have their insurance policies endorsed to prevent the
invalidation of the insurance coverage because of these waivers. Nothing in this Paragraph 17
shall relieve a party of liability to the other for failure to carry insurance required by this
Lease.
18. Signs
(a) Project Standard Signage. Landlord shall provide to Tenant, at Landlord’s expense, the
following Building standard signage: (i) directory signage in the Building lobby, and (ii) suite
signage at the entrance to the Premises.
(b) Monument Signage. Tenant shall have the right to have its name listed on the shared
monument sign for the Building (the “Monument Sign”). Landlord shall have the right to
require that all names on the Monument Sign be of the same size. Tenant’s right to place its name
on the Monument Sign, and the location of Tenant’s name on the Monument Sign, shall be subject to
Landlord’s reasonable approval. Although the Monument Sign will be maintained by Landlord, Tenant
shall pay its proportionate share of the cost of any maintenance and repair associated with the
Monument Sign. In the event that additional names are listed on the Monument Sign, all costs of
maintenance and repair shall be prorated between Tenant and the other parties that are
25
listed on such Monument Sign. Landlord may, at anytime during the Lease Term (or any
extension thereof), upon five (5) days’ prior written notice to Tenant, relocate the position of
Tenant’s name on the Monument Sign; provided, however that the new position is no lower than the
initial position. The cost of such relocation of Tenant’s name shall be at the cost and expense of
Landlord. At Landlord’s option, Tenant’s right to the Monument Signage may be revoked and
terminated upon occurrence of any Default by Tenant beyond applicable notice and cure periods.
(c) Parapet Signage.
(i) Tenant shall also be entitled to one parapet tenant identification sign facing Stoneridge
Mall Road (the “Parapet Sign”). The Parapet Sign shall be located in the same general
area as preexisting parapet signage on the Building, and the size, color and design of which shall
be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall, at
Tenant’s sole cost and expense, design, construct and install the Parapet Signage. Tenant shall
maintain the Parapet Signage in good condition and repair, and all costs of maintenance and repair
shall be borne solely by Tenant. Maintenance shall include, without limitation, cleaning and, if
the Parapet Signage is illuminated, relamping at reasonable intervals. Tenant shall be responsible
for any electrical energy used in connection with the Parapet Signage.
(ii) At Landlord’s option, Tenant’s right to the Parapet Signage may be revoked and terminated
upon occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Tenant is in Default; (b) Tenant subleases
more than fifty percent (50%) of the portion of the Premises located on the 5th floor of
the Building for substantially the remainder of the Term; or (c) Tenant assigns this Lease. Unless
otherwise agreed by Landlord in writing in its sole discretion, the rights provided in this
Paragraph 18(c) shall be non-transferable, except to a Permitted Transferee.
(d) General Requirements. Tenant shall not place or permit to be placed in, upon, or about
the Premises, the Building or the Project any exterior lights, decorations, balloons, flags,
pennants, banners, advertisements or notices, or erect or install any signs, windows or door
lettering, placards, decorations, or advertising media of any type which can be viewed from the
exterior of the Premises without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent or without complying
with Landlord’s signage criteria, as the same may be modified by Landlord from time to time (the
“Signage Criteria”) and without complying with all applicable Laws (including, without
limitation, obtaining any required consent of the City of Pleasanton or any other public
authorities having jurisdiction). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant must
obtain Landlord’s written consent as to the design, size and color of Tenant’s signage and the
manner in which it is attached to the Project prior to its fabrication and installation. To obtain
Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall submit design drawings to Landlord showing the type and sizes of
all lettering; the colors, finishes and types of materials used; and (if applicable and Landlord
consents in its sole discretion) any provisions for illumination. Landlord reserves the right to
withhold consent to any sign that, in the good faith judgment of Landlord, is offensive, political
or otherwise not harmonious with Class-A office buildings. Upon the expiration of the Term or
sooner termination of this Lease or at such other time that any of Tenant’s signage rights are
terminated pursuant to the terms of this Paragraph 18, Tenant shall remove any such signage and
repair any damage or injury to the Premises, the Building or the Project caused thereby
26
(including, if necessary, the replacement of any precast concrete panels), all at Tenant’s
sole cost and expense. If any signs are not removed, or necessary repairs are not made, then
Landlord shall have the right to remove and dispose of such sign(s) and repair any damage or injury
to the Premises, the Building or the Project at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant shall pay
all costs and expenses for such removal and restoration within five (5) Business Days following
delivery of an invoice therefor. In addition to any other rights or remedies available to
Landlord, in the event that Tenant erects or installs any sign in violation of this Paragraph 18,
and Tenant fails to remove same within three (3) business days after notice from Landlord or erects
or installs a similar sign in the future, Landlord shall have the right to charge Tenant a signage
fee equal to One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) per day for each day thereafter that such sign is not
removed or a similar sign is installed or erected in the future. Landlord’s election to charge
such fee shall not be deemed to be a consent by Landlord to such sign and Tenant shall remain
obligated to remove such sign in accordance with Landlord’s notice.
19. Free From Liens
Tenant shall keep the Premises, the Building and the Project free from any liens arising out
of any work performed, material furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant. In the event
that Tenant shall not, within twenty (20) days following the imposition of any such lien, cause the
lien to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have in
addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law the right but not the obligation to cause
same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving
rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all expenses incurred by it in connection
therewith (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant
upon demand. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises
any notices permitted or required by law or that Landlord shall deem proper for the protection of
Landlord, the Premises, the Building and the Project, from mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens.
Tenant shall give to Landlord at least five (5) business days’ prior written notice of commencement
of any repair or construction on the Premises.
20. Entry By Landlord
Tenant shall permit Landlord and Landlord’s Agents to enter into and upon the Premises at all
reasonable times, upon reasonable notice (except in the case of an emergency, for which no notice
shall be required), and subject to Tenant’s reasonable security arrangements, for the purpose of
inspecting the same or showing the Premises to prospective purchasers, lenders or tenants or to
provide services, alter, improve, maintain and repair the Premises or the Building as required or
permitted of Landlord under the terms hereof, or for any other business purpose, without any rebate
of Rent and without any liability to Tenant for any loss of occupation or quiet enjoyment of the
Premises thereby occasioned (except for actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Landlord); and Tenant shall permit Landlord to post notices of
non-responsibility and ordinary “for sale” or “for lease” signs. No such entry shall be construed
to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction or
constructive eviction of Tenant from the Premises. Landlord may temporarily close entrances,
doors, corridors, elevators or other facilities without liability to Tenant by reason of such
closure in the case of an emergency and when Landlord otherwise deems such closure necessary.
27
21. Destruction and Damage
(a) If the Premises are damaged by fire or other perils covered by extended coverage
insurance, Tenant shall give Landlord immediate notice thereof and Landlord shall, at Landlord’s
option:
(i) In the event of total destruction (which shall mean destruction or damage in excess of
twenty-five percent (25%) of the full insurable value thereof) of the Premises, elect either to
commence promptly to repair and restore the Premises and prosecute the same diligently to
completion, in which event this Lease shall remain in full force and effect; or not to repair or
restore the Premises, in which event this Lease shall terminate. Landlord shall give Tenant
written notice of its intention within sixty (60) days after the date Landlord obtains actual
knowledge of such destruction (the “Casualty Discovery Date”). If Landlord elects not
to restore the Premises, this Lease shall be deemed to have terminated as of the Casualty Discovery
Date.
(ii) In the event of a partial destruction (which shall mean destruction or damage to an
extent not exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full insurable value thereof) of the Premises
for which Landlord will receive insurance proceeds sufficient to cover the cost to repair and
restore such partial destruction and, if the damage thereto is such that the Premises may be
substantially repaired or restored to its condition existing immediately prior to such damage or
destruction within two hundred seventy (270) days from the Casualty Discovery Date, Landlord shall
commence and proceed diligently with the work of repair and restoration, in which event this Lease
shall continue in full force and effect. If such repair and restoration requires longer than two
hundred seventy (270) days or if the insurance proceeds therefor (plus any amounts Tenant may elect
or is obligated to contribute) are not sufficient to cover the cost of such repair and restoration,
Landlord may elect either to so repair and restore, in which event this Lease shall continue in
full force and effect, or not to repair or restore, in which event this Lease shall terminate. In
either case, Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant of its intention within sixty (60) days
after the Casualty Discovery Date. If Landlord elects not to restore the Premises, this Lease
shall be deemed to have terminated as of the Casualty Discovery Date.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Paragraph, in the event of
damage to the Premises occurring during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, Landlord may elect
to terminate this Lease by written notice of such election given to Tenant within thirty (30) days
after the Casualty Discovery Date.
(b) If the Premises are damaged by any peril not fully covered by insurance proceeds to be
received by Landlord, and the cost to repair such damage exceeds any amount Tenant may agree to
contribute, Landlord may elect either to commence promptly to repair and restore the Premises and
prosecute the same diligently to completion, in which event this Lease shall remain in full force
and effect; or not to repair or restore the Premises, in which event this Lease shall terminate.
Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of its intention within sixty (60) days after the
Casualty Discovery Date. If Landlord elects not to restore the Premises, this Lease shall be
deemed to have terminated as of the date on which Tenant surrenders possession of the Premises to
Landlord, except that if the damage to the Premises materially impairs Tenant’s ability to continue
its business operations in the Premises, then this Lease shall be deemed to have terminated as of
the date such damage occurred.
28
(c) If the Premises or any portion thereof is damaged by fire or other perils, and if (i) the
repair and restoration cannot be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after the Casualty
Discovery Date, or (ii) such damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, then in
either case, Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice of such election given to
Landlord within thirty (30) days after the Casualty Discovery Date. In such event, this Lease
shall be deemed to have terminated as of the date on which Tenant surrenders possession of the
Project to Landlord.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Xxxxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx shall have the
option to terminate this Lease, exercisable by notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days after the
Casualty Discovery Date, in each of the following instances:
(i) If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the full insurable value of the Building or the
Project is damaged or destroyed, regardless of whether or not the Premises are destroyed.
(ii) If the Building or the Project or any portion thereof is damaged or destroyed and the
repair and restoration of such damage requires longer than one hundred eighty (180) days from the
Casualty Discovery Date, regardless of whether or not the Premises are destroyed.
(iii) If the Building or the Project or any portion thereof is damaged or destroyed and the
insurance proceeds therefor are not sufficient to cover the costs of repair and restoration,
regardless of whether or not the Premises are destroyed.
(iv) If the Building or the Project or any portion thereof is damaged or destroyed during the
last twelve (12) months of the Term, regardless of whether or not the Premises are destroyed.
(e) In the event of repair and restoration as herein provided, the monthly installments of
Base Rent shall be abated proportionately in the ratio which Tenant’s use of the Premises is
impaired during the period of such repair or restoration; provided, however, that Tenant shall not
be entitled to such abatement to the extent that such damage or destruction resulted from the
criminal acts or willful misconduct of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents. Except as expressly provided in
the immediately preceding sentence with respect to abatement of Base Rent, Tenant shall have no
claim against Landlord for, and hereby releases Landlord and Landlord’s Agents from responsibility
for and waives its entire claim of recovery for any cost, loss or expense suffered or incurred by
Tenant as a result of any damage to or destruction of the Premises, the Building or the Project or
the repair or restoration thereof, including, without limitation, any cost, loss or expense
resulting from any loss of use of the whole or any part of the Premises, the Building or the
Project and/or any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such damage, repair or restoration.
(f) If Landlord is obligated to or elects to repair or restore as herein provided, Landlord
shall repair or restore only the initial tenant improvements, if any, constructed by Landlord in
the Premises pursuant to the terms of this Lease, substantially to their condition existing
immediately prior to the occurrence of the damage or destruction; and Tenant shall promptly repair
and restore, at Tenant’s expense, Tenant’s Alterations which were not constructed by Landlord.
29
(g) Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(2) and Section
1933(4) which permit termination of a lease upon destruction of the leased premises, and the
provisions of any similar law now or hereinafter in effect, and the provisions of this Paragraph 21
shall govern exclusively in case of such destruction.
22. Condemnation
(a) If twenty-five percent (25%) or more of either the Premises, the Building or the Project
or the Parking Areas is permanently taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful
governmental power or authority, by exercise of the right of appropriation, inverse condemnation,
condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking (each such event being referred to
as a “Condemnation”), Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease as of the date
title vests in the condemning party. If twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Premises is taken
and if the Premises remaining after such Condemnation and any repairs by Landlord would be
untenantable (in Landlord’s reasonable opinion) for the conduct of Tenant’s business operations,
Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as of the date title vests in the condemning
party. If either party elects to terminate this Lease as provided herein, such election shall be
made by written notice to the other party given within thirty (30) days after the nature and extent
of such Condemnation have been finally determined. If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to
terminate this Lease to the extent permitted above, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the
Premises, to the extent of any Condemnation award received by Landlord, to substantially the same
condition as existed prior to such Condemnation, allowing for the reasonable effects of such
Condemnation, and a proportionate abatement shall be made to the Base Rent corresponding to the
time during which, and to the portion of the floor area of the Premises (adjusted for any increase
thereto resulting from any reconstruction) of which, Tenant is deprived on account of such
Condemnation and restoration, as reasonably determined by Landlord. Except as expressly provided
in the immediately preceding sentence with respect to abatement of Base Rent, Tenant shall have no
claim against Landlord for, and hereby releases Landlord and Landlord’s Agents from responsibility
for and waives its entire claim of recovery for any cost, loss or expense suffered or incurred by
Tenant as a result of any Condemnation, whether permanent or temporary, or the repair or
restoration of the Premises, the Building or the Project or the Parking Areas following such
Condemnation, including, without limitation, any cost, loss or expense resulting from any loss of
use of the whole or any part of the Premises, the Building, the Project or the Parking Areas and/or
any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such Condemnation, repair or restoration. The
provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130, which allows either party to
petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the
Premises, the Building or the Project or the Parking Areas, and any other applicable law now or
hereafter enacted, are hereby waived by Tenant.
(b) Landlord shall be entitled to any and all compensation, damages, income, rent, awards, or
any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with any Condemnation, and
Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired Term of this Lease or
otherwise; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to receive any award separately
allocated by the condemning authority to Tenant for Tenant’s relocation expenses or the value of
Tenant’s Property (specifically excluding fixtures, Alterations and other components of the
Premises which under this Lease or by law are or at the expiration of the
30
Term will become the property of Landlord), provided that such award does not reduce any award
otherwise allocable or payable to Landlord.
23. Assignment and Subletting
(a) Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law, (i) mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or
encumber this Lease or any interest herein, (ii) assign or transfer this Lease or any interest
herein, sublease the Premises or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto,
or allow any other person (the employees and invitees of Tenant excepted) to occupy or use the
Premises, or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, as set forth below in this Paragraph 23; provided,
however, that (A) Tenant is not then in Default under this Lease nor is any event then occurring
which with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a Default
hereunder, and (B) Tenant has not previously assigned or transferred this Lease or any interest
herein. A transfer of greater than a fifty percent (50%) interest (whether stock, partnership
interest, membership interest or otherwise) of Tenant, either in one (1) transaction or a series of
transactions shall be deemed to be an assignment under this Lease.
(b) When Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to an assignment or subletting, it shall notify
Landlord in writing of the name and address of the proposed assignee or subtenant and the nature
and character of the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant and shall provide current and
two (2) years’ prior financial statements for the proposed assignee or subtenant, which financial
statements shall be audited to the extent available and shall in any event be prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Tenant shall also provide Landlord with
a copy of the proposed sublease or assignment agreement, including all material terms and
conditions thereof. Landlord shall have the option, to be exercised within ten (10) days of
receipt of the foregoing, to (i) terminate this Lease as of the commencement date stated in any
proposed assignment or any proposed sublease of substantially the entirety of the Premises for
substantially the remainder of the Term (excepting, in either case, any Permitted Transfer), (ii)
sublease or take an assignment, as the case may be, from Tenant of the interest, or any portion
thereof, in this Lease and/or the Premises that Tenant proposes to assign or sublease, on the same
terms and conditions as stated in the proposed sublet or assignment agreement, (iii) consent to the
proposed assignment or sublease, or (iv) refuse its consent to the proposed assignment or sublease,
provided that (A) such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as Tenant is not then in
Default under this Lease nor is any event then occurring which, with the giving of notice or the
passage of time, or both, would constitute a Default hereunder, and (B) as a condition to providing
such consent, Landlord may require attornment from the proposed subtenant on terms and conditions
reasonably acceptable to Landlord. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Lease or
sublease or take an assignment from Tenant of the interest, or portion thereof, in this Lease
and/or the Premises that Tenant proposes to assign or sublease as provided in the foregoing clauses
(i) and (ii), respectively, then Landlord shall have the additional right to negotiate directly
with Tenant’s proposed assignee or subtenant and to enter into a direct lease or occupancy
agreement with such party on such terms as shall be acceptable to Landlord in its sole and absolute
discretion, and Tenant hereby waives any claims against Landlord related thereto, including,
without limitation, any claims for any compensation or profit related to such lease or occupancy
agreement.
31
(c) Without otherwise limiting the criteria upon which Landlord may withhold its consent,
Landlord shall be entitled to consider all reasonable criteria including, but not limited to, the
following: (i) whether or not the proposed subtenant or assignee is engaged in a business which,
and the use of the Premises will be in an manner which, is in keeping with the then character and
nature of all other tenancies in the Project; (ii) whether the use to be made of the Premises by
the proposed subtenant or assignee will conflict with any so-called “exclusive” use then in favor
of any other tenant of the Building or the Project, and whether such use would be prohibited by any
other portion of this Lease, including, but not limited to, any rules and regulations then in
effect, or under applicable Laws, and whether such use imposes a greater load upon the Premises and
the Building and the Project services than imposed by Tenant; and (iii) the creditworthiness and
financial stability of the proposed assignee or subtenant in light of the responsibilities
involved. In any event, Landlord may withhold its consent to any assignment or sublease, if (A)
the actual use proposed to be conducted in the Premises or portion thereof conflicts with the
provisions of Paragraph 9(a) or (b) above or with any other lease which restricts the use to which
any space in the Building or the Project may be put; (B) the portion of the Premises proposed to be
sublet does not permit safe or otherwise appropriate means of ingress and egress, or does not
comply with governmental safety and other codes; (C) the proposed sublessee or assignee is either a
governmental or quasi-governmental agency or instrumentality thereof; (D) the proposed sublessee or
assignee has entered into a signed letter of intent with Landlord to lease space in the Project
during the two (2) month period immediately preceding the date Landlord receives Tenant’s request
for consent; or (E) the proposed subtenant or assignee is a Prohibited Person, as defined in
Paragraph 47.
(d) If Landlord approves an assignment or subletting as herein provided, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, as Additional Rent, fifty percent (50%) of the excess, if any, of (i) the rent and any
additional rent payable by the assignee or sublessee to Tenant, less reasonable and customary
market-based leasing commissions, attorneys’ fees, and the cost of tenant improvements required
for the sublease, if any, incurred by Tenant in connection with such assignment or sublease; minus
(ii) Base Rent plus Additional Rent allocable to that part of the Premises affected by such
assignment or sublease pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The assignment or sublease
agreement, as the case may be, after approval by Landlord, shall not be amended without Landlord’s
prior written consent, and shall contain a provision directing the assignee or subtenant to pay the
rent and other sums due thereunder directly to Landlord upon receiving written notice from Landlord
that Tenant is in default under this Lease with respect to the payment of Rent. In the event that,
notwithstanding the giving of such notice, Tenant collects any rent or other sums from the assignee
or subtenant, then Tenant shall hold such sums in trust for the benefit of Landlord and shall
immediately forward the same to Landlord. Landlord’s collection of such rent and other sums shall
not constitute an acceptance by Landlord of attornment by such assignee or subtenant.
(e) Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, Tenant and any guarantor or surety of
Tenant’s obligations under this Lease shall at all times remain fully and primarily responsible and
liable for the payment of the Rent and for compliance with all of Tenant’s other obligations under
this Lease (regardless of whether Landlord’s approval has been obtained for any such assignment or
subletting).
32
(f) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual and reasonable out-of-pocket fees
(including, without limitation, the fees of Landlord’s counsel), incurred in connection with
Landlord’s review and processing of documents regarding any proposed assignment or sublease;
provided, however that the fees associated with the first version of any consent agreement
delivered to Tenant shall not exceed $2,500.00.
(g) A consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use shall not be deemed to be a
consent to any other or subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use, and consent to any
assignment or subletting shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any
assignment or subletting without Landlord’s consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of
Landlord, constitute a Default under this Lease.
(h) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions, conditions and limitations imposed
by this Paragraph 23 on Tenant’s ability to assign or transfer this Lease or any interest herein,
to sublet the Premises or any part thereof, to transfer or assign any right or privilege
appurtenant to the Premises, or to allow any other person to occupy or use the Premises or any
portion thereof, are, for the purposes of California Civil Code Section 1951.4, as amended from
time to time, and for all other purposes, reasonable at the time that this Lease was entered into,
and shall be deemed to be reasonable at the time that Tenant seeks to assign or transfer this Lease
or any interest herein, to sublet the Premises or any part thereof, to transfer or assign any right
or privilege appurtenant to the Premises, or to allow any other person to occupy or use the
Premises or any portion thereof.
(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in the event Landlord consents to
an assignment or subletting by Tenant in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 23, Tenant’s
assignee or subtenant shall have no right to further assign this Lease or any interest therein or
thereunder or to further sublease all or any portion of the Premises without Landlord’s consent per
this Paragraph 23.
(j) If this Lease is assigned, whether or not in violation of the provisions of this Lease,
Landlord may collect Rent from the assignee. If the Premises or any part thereof is sublet or used
or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, whether or not in violation of this Lease, Landlord may,
after a Default by Tenant, collect Rent from the subtenant or occupant. In either event, Landlord
may apply the net amount collected to Rent, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy or
collection shall be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions of this Paragraph 23, or the
acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as tenant, or a release of Tenant from the
further performance by Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. The consent by Landlord to
an assignment, mortgaging, pledging, encumbering, transfer, use, occupancy or subletting pursuant
to any provision of this Lease shall not, except as otherwise provided herein, in any way be
considered to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent of Landlord to any other or further
assignment, mortgaging, pledging, encumbering, transfer, use, occupancy or subletting. References
in this Lease to use or occupancy by anyone other than Tenant shall not be construed as limited to
subtenants and those claiming under or through subtenants but as including also licensees or others
claiming under or through Tenant, immediately or remotely. The listing of any name other than that
of Tenant on any door of the Premises or on any directory or in any elevator in the Building, or
otherwise, shall not, except as otherwise provided herein, operate to vest in the person so named
any right or interest in this Lease or in the Premises, or be
33
deemed to constitute, or serve as a substitute for, or any waiver of, any prior consent of
Landlord required under this Paragraph 23.
(k) Each subletting and/or assignment pursuant to this Paragraph shall be subject to all of
the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions contained in this Lease and each of the
covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease shall be automatically
incorporated therein. If Landlord shall consent to, or reasonably withhold its consent to, any
proposed assignment or sublease, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord against
and from any and all loss, liability, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel
fees) resulting from any claims that may be made against Landlord by the proposed assignee or
sublessee or by any brokers or other persons claiming a commission or similar fee in connection
with the proposed assignment or sublease.
(l) Notwithstanding anything in Paragraph 23(a) above to the contrary, Tenant may, without
obtaining the prior consent of Landlord, without Landlord’s having any rights pursuant to clause
(i) or (ii) of Paragraph 23(b) above, and without the payment of any amounts pursuant to Paragraph
23(d) above, assign, transfer or sublease this Lease or the whole or any part of the Premises to
any corporation or other entity which (a) controls, is controlled by, or is under common control
with Tenant, (b) acquires all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets or stock, or (c) results from
the merger or consolidation of Tenant with another entity (each, a “Permitted Transfer”); provided
that (i) Tenant shall give not less than ten (10) days prior written notice thereof to Landlord (to
the extent such notice is permitted by applicable Law), (ii) Tenant shall continue to be fully
obligated under this Lease, (iii) any such assignee or sublessee shall expressly assume and agree
to perform all the terms and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant (but with respect
to a sublease, only with respect to that portion of the Premises that is the subject of the
sublease and excluding all rental obligations of Tenant hereunder), and (iv) the assignee or
sublessee (“Permitted Transferee”) shall have a tangible net worth, determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (“Net Worth”), at least equal to
Tenant’s Net Worth as of the date of the Transfer. Tenant shall also have the right without
Landlord’s consent and not subject to this Paragraph 23, to sublease or license space in the
Premises to “Strategic Partner(s)” which are individuals or entities that are working with Tenant
and Tenant desires that they share space in the Premises with Tenant to facilitate that strategic
alliance.
(m) Notwithstanding anything in Paragraph 23(a) above to the contrary, Landlord shall permit
Tenant to license space in the Premises to any one or more Strategic Partners (as hereinafter
defined) upon written notice to Landlord but without Tenant being required to obtain Landlord’s
prior written consent, provided (i) the aggregate square feet of space so licensed to all Strategic
Partners at each and every point in time during the Term is no more than fifteen percent (15%) of
the Premises, (ii) the term of each such license shall expire on or before the expiration or sooner
termination of the Lease, (iii) each such license is expressly subject and subordinate to this
Lease, (iv) Tenant shall ensure that each such license does not violate any of the provisions of
this Lease or cause Tenant to violate any such provisions, and (v) no such licensee shall use,
store, generate, release or otherwise handle in, on or about the Premises any Hazardous Materials
except for minor amounts thereof commonly used for office purposes (e.g., white out, copier toner).
A “Strategic Partner” shall mean individuals or other entities who transact business with Tenant
in the ordinary course during the license period and who use space in the Premises for
34
period of time which is no longer than one year. All Strategic Partners shall be deemed to be
Tenant’s Agents for purposes of this Lease. If Tenant at any time during the Term is no longer
Callidus Software Inc. a Delaware corporation and any Permitted Transferees, then the
provisions of this paragraph regarding Tenant’s right to license space in the Premises to Strategic
Partners without the prior written consent of Landlord shall no longer be applicable, and all
further licenses shall be effectuated, if at all, only after Tenant first obtains Landlord’s prior
written consent thereto in accordance with this Paragraph 23. If Landlord determines in its good
faith discretion that any license to a Strategic Partner effected pursuant to this Paragraph 23(m)
is inconsistent with the standards of a Class A office project, is detrimental to the reputation or
standing of the Project, or violates any exclusives within the Project, then Tenant shall cause
such license to be terminated within thirty (30) days’ written notice from Landlord.
24. | Default |
The occurrence of any one of the following events shall constitute a default on the part of
Tenant (“Default”):
(a) The abandonment of the Premises without the payment of rent due by Tenant for a period of
ten (10) consecutive days or any vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant which would
cause any insurance policy to be invalidated or otherwise lapse, in each of the foregoing cases
irrespective of whether or not Tenant is then in monetary default under this Lease. Tenant agrees
to notice and service of notice as provided for in this Lease and waives any right to any other or
further notice or service of notice which Tenant may have under any statute or law now or hereafter
in effect;
(b) Failure to pay any installment of Rent or any other monies due and payable hereunder, said
failure continuing for a period of three (3) days after notice of delinquency;
(c) A general assignment by Tenant or any guarantor or surety of Tenant’s obligations
hereunder, including, without limitation, Lease Guarantor, if any (collectively,
“Guarantor”) for the benefit of creditors;
(d) The filing of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy by Tenant or any Guarantor, the filing by
Tenant or any Guarantor of a voluntary petition for an arrangement, the filing by or against Tenant
or any Guarantor of a petition, voluntary or involuntary, for reorganization, or the filing of an
involuntary petition by the creditors of Tenant or any Guarantor, said involuntary petition
remaining undischarged for a period of sixty (60) days;
(e) Receivership, attachment, or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s

Landlord to Tenant, provided that, if Tenant has exercised reasonable diligence to cure such
failure and such failure cannot be cured within such thirty (30) day period despite reasonable

commence an unlawful detainer proceeding.
25. | Landlord’s Remedies |
(a) Termination. In the event of any Default by Tenant, then in addition to any other
remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity and under this Lease, Landlord may terminate
this Lease immediately and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice to Tenant of
such intention to terminate. If Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease then Landlord may
recover from Tenant:
(i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent and any other sums due and payable which
have been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and any other sums
due and payable which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the
amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and any other sums
due and payable for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such
rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately
caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary
course would be likely to result therefrom; plus
(v) such reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default, and costs
in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedy; and plus
(vi) at Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as
may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is
computed by allowing interest at an annual rate equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum or the
maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. As used in subparagraph (iii) above, the
“worth at the time of award” is 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%).
Tenant waives redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 1174 and 1179, or under any other pertinent present or future law, in the event Tenant is
evicted or Landlord takes possession of the Premises by reason of any Default of Tenant hereunder.
37
(b) Continuation of Lease. In the event of any Default by Tenant, then in addition to any
other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity and under this Lease, Landlord shall have
the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in
effect after Tenant’s Default and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, provided that
Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). In addition,
Landlord shall not be liable in any way whatsoever for its failure or refusal to relet the
Premises. For purposes of this Paragraph 25(b), the following acts by Landlord will not constitute
the termination of Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises:
(i) Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the Premises, including, but not
limited to, alterations, remodeling, redecorating, repairs, replacements and/or painting as
Landlord shall consider advisable for the purpose of reletting the Premises or any part thereof; or
(ii) The appointment of a receiver upon the initiative of Landlord to protect Landlord’s
interest under this Lease or in the Premises.
(c) Re-entry. In the event of any Default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right, with
or without terminating this Lease, in compliance with applicable law, to re-enter the Premises, by
force if necessary, and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be
removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant.
(d) Reletting. In the event of the abandonment of the Premises by Tenant or in the event that
Landlord shall elect to re-enter as provided in Paragraph 25(b) or shall take possession of the
Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then if Landlord
does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in Xxxxxxxxx 00(x), Xxxxxxxx may from time to
time, without terminating this Lease, relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms
and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole
discretion may deem advisable with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises in
Landlord’s sole discretion. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so relet, then rentals
received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied in the following order: (i) to
reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default and costs in the event
suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedies; (ii) to the payment of any indebtedness other
than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; (iii) to the payment of any costs of such
reletting; (iv) to the payment of the costs of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; (v) to
the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and (vi) the residue, if any, shall be held by
Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent and other sums payable by Tenant hereunder as the
same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such
reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of Rent hereunder, be less than the
Rent payable during the month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to
Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to
Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or
in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(e) Termination. No re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to
this Paragraph 25 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice
of such intention is given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by
38
a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by
Landlord because of any Default by Tenant, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to
terminate this Lease for any such Default.
(f) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies herein provided are not exclusive and Landlord shall
have any and all other remedies provided herein or by law or in equity.
(g) No Surrender. No act or conduct of Landlord, whether consisting of the acceptance of the
keys to the Premises, or otherwise, shall be deemed to be or constitute an acceptance of the
surrender of the Premises by Tenant prior to the expiration of the Term, and such acceptance by
Landlord of surrender by Tenant shall only flow from and must be evidenced by a written
acknowledgment of acceptance of surrender signed by Landlord. The surrender of this Lease by
Tenant, voluntarily or otherwise, shall not work a merger unless Landlord elects in writing that
such merger take place, but shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of any and all existing
subleases, or Landlord may, at its option, elect in writing to treat such surrender as a merger
terminating Tenant’s estate under this Lease, and thereupon Landlord may terminate any or all such
subleases by notifying the sublessee of its election so to do within five (5) days after such
surrender.
26. Landlord’s Right to Perform Tenant’s Obligations
(a) Without limiting the rights and remedies of Landlord contained in Paragraph 25 above, if
Tenant shall be in Default in the performance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants or
conditions to be performed or complied with by Tenant pursuant to this Lease, then Landlord may at
Landlord’s option, without any obligation to do so, and without notice to Tenant perform any such
term, provision, covenant, or condition, or make any such payment and Landlord by reason of so
doing shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage thereby sustained by Tenant or
anyone holding under or through Tenant or any of Tenant’s Agents.
(b) Without limiting the rights of Landlord under Paragraph 26(a) above, Landlord shall have
the right at Landlord’s option, without any obligation to do so, to perform any of Tenant’s
covenants or obligations under this Lease without notice to Tenant in the case of an emergency, as
determined by Landlord in its sole and absolute judgment, or if Landlord otherwise determines in
its sole discretion that such performance is necessary or desirable for the proper management and
operation of the Building or the Project or for the preservation of the rights and interests or
safety of other tenants of the Building or the Project.
(c) If Landlord performs any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder in accordance with this
Paragraph 26, the full amount of the cost and expense incurred or the payment so made or the amount
of the loss so sustained shall immediately be owing by Tenant to Landlord, and Tenant shall
promptly pay to Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, the full amount thereof with interest
thereon from the date of payment by Landlord at the lower of (i) twelve percent (12%) per annum, or
(ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
27. Attorneys’ Fees
(a) If either party hereto fails to perform any of its obligations under this Lease or if any
dispute arises between the parties hereto concerning the meaning or interpretation of any
39
provision of this Lease, then the defaulting party or the party not prevailing in such
dispute, as the case may be, shall pay any and all costs and expenses incurred by the other party
on account of such default and/or in enforcing or establishing its rights hereunder, including,
without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Any such
attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by either party in enforcing a judgment in its favor
under this Lease shall be recoverable separately from and in addition to any other amount included
in such judgment, and such attorneys’ fees obligation is intended to be severable from the other
provisions of this Lease and to survive and not be merged into any such judgment.
(b) Without limiting the generality of Paragraph 27(a) above, if Landlord utilizes the
services of an attorney for the purpose of collecting any Rent due and unpaid by Tenant or in
connection with any other breach of this Lease by Tenant, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord actual
attorneys’ fees as determined by Landlord for such services, regardless of the fact that no legal
action may be commenced or filed by Landlord.
28. Taxes
Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay directly to the taxing authority, prior to
delinquency, all taxes levied against Tenant’s Property. If any Alteration installed by Tenant
pursuant to Paragraph 12 or any of Tenant’s Property is assessed and taxed with the Project or the
Building, Tenant shall pay such taxes to Landlord within ten (10) days after delivery to Tenant of
a statement therefor.
29. Effect of Conveyance
The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease means, from time to time, the then current owner of
the Building or the Project containing the Premises, so that, in the event of any sale of the
Building or the Project, Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all
covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder (provided that the Security Deposit is transferred
to the new owner), and it shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the
parties and the purchaser at any such sale, that the purchaser of the Building or the Project has
assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder.
30. Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate
From time to time, upon written request of Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver to Landlord or its designee, an Estoppel Certificate in substantially the form attached
hereto as Exhibit D and with any other statements reasonably requested by Landlord or
its designee. Any such Estoppel Certificate may be relied upon by a prospective purchaser of
Landlord’s interest or a mortgagee of (or holder of a deed of trust encumbering) Landlord’s
interest or assignment of any mortgage or deed of trust upon Landlord’s interest in the Premises.
If Tenant fails to provide such certificate within ten (10) business days of receipt by Tenant of a
written request by Landlord as herein provided, such failure shall, at Landlord’s election,
constitute a Default under this Lease, and Tenant shall be deemed to have given such certificate as
above provided without modification and shall be deemed to have admitted the accuracy of
40
any information supplied by Landlord to a prospective purchaser or mortgagee or deed of trust
holder.
31. Subordination
At the option of Landlord, this Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be
subject and subordinate to all ground leases, overriding leases and underlying leases affecting the
Building or the Project now or hereafter existing and each of the terms, covenants and conditions
thereto (the “Superior Lease(s)”), and to all mortgages or deeds of trust which may now
or hereafter affect the Building, the Property or any of such leases and each of the terms,
covenants and conditions thereto (the “Superior Mortgage(s)”), whether or not such
mortgages or deeds of trust shall also cover other land, buildings or leases, to each and every
advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages or deeds of trust, and to all renewals,
modifications, replacements and extensions of such leases and such mortgages or deeds of trust and
spreaders and consolidations of such mortgages or deeds of trust. This Paragraph shall be
self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. Tenant shall promptly
execute, acknowledge and deliver any reasonable instrument that Landlord, the lessor under any such
lease or the holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust or any of their respective successors in
interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination; if Tenant fails to execute,
acknowledge or deliver any such instrument within ten (10) business days after request therefor,
Tenant hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact, coupled
with an interest, to execute and deliver any such instrument for and on behalf of Tenant. As used
herein the lessor of a Superior Lease or its successor in interest is herein called
“Superior Lessor”; and the holder of a Superior Mortgage is herein called
“Superior Mortgagee.”
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 31, as to any Superior Mortgage
against or affecting any or all of the Building or the Premises or any or all of the Building and
improvements now or at any time hereafter constituting a part of or adjoining the Building in place
at the time of execution of this Lease, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to obtain an
agreement from the holder thereof in recordable form and substantially in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit E or otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant,
whereby the holder of such Superior Mortgage agrees that Tenant, upon paying the Base Rent and all
of the Additional Rent and other charges herein provided for, and observing and complying with the
covenants, agreements and conditions of this Lease on its part to be observed and complied with,
shall lawfully and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the Term (including any
exercised renewal term), without hindrance or interference from anyone claiming by or through said
Superior Mortgagee and that said Superior Mortgagee shall respect Tenant’s rights under this Lease
and, upon succeeding to Landlord’s interest in the Building and Lease, shall observe and comply
with all of Landlord’s duties under this Lease (hereinafter referred to as a Nondisturbance
Agreement). Notwithstanding the first paragraph of this Section 31, Tenant shall not be obligated
to subordinate to any Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage unless such subordination contains a
Non-Disturbance Agreement.
If any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under
this Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or delivery of a new lease or deed
(such party so succeeding to Landlord’s rights herein called “Successor Landlord”),
then Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenant’s landlord under this
Lease
41
(without the need for further agreement) and shall promptly execute and deliver any reasonable
instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment. This
Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Successor Landlord and
Tenant upon all of the terms, conditions and covenants as are set forth in this Lease, except that
the Successor Landlord shall not (a) be liable for any previous act or omission of Landlord under
this Lease, except to the extent such act or omission shall constitute a continuing Landlord
default hereunder; (b) be subject to any offset, not expressly provided for in this Lease; or (c)
be bound by any previous modification of this Lease or by any previous prepayment of more than one
month’s Base Rent, unless such modification or prepayment shall have been expressly approved in
writing by the Successor Landlord (or its predecessor in interest).
32. Environmental Covenants
(a) As used in this Lease, the term “Hazardous Materials” means (i) any substance
or material that is included within the definitions of “hazardous substances,” “hazardous
materials,” “toxic substances,” “pollutant,” “contaminant,” “hazardous waste,” or “solid waste” in
any Environmental Law; (ii) petroleum or petroleum derivatives, including crude oil or any fraction
thereof, all forms of natural gas, and petroleum products or by-products or waste; (iii)
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs); (iv) asbestos and asbestos containing materials (whether friable

liquid solvents or similar chemicals; (ix) radon gas; and (x) mildew, fungus, mold, bacteria and/or
other organic spore material, whether or not airborne, colonizing, amplifying or otherwise.
(b) As used in this Lease, the term “Environmental Laws” means all statutes,
terms, conditions, limitations, restrictions, standards, prohibitions, obligations, schedules,
plans and timetables that are contained in or promulgated pursuant to any federal, state or local
laws (including rules, regulations, ordinances, codes, judgments, orders, decrees, contracts,
permits, stipulations, injunctions, the common law, court opinions, and demand or notice letters
issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder), relating to pollution or the protection of
the environment, including laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases
of Hazardous Materials into ambient air, surface water, ground water or lands or otherwise relating
to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or
handling of Hazardous Materials including, but not limited to: Comprehensive Environmental Response
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended by the Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act of 1986 (XXXX), 42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.; Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended by
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), 42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq.; Federal Water
Pollution Control Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.; Toxic Substances Control Act, 15 U.S.C. 2601 et
seq.; Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.; the Safe Drinking Water Act, 42 U.S.C. § 300f et seq.
and Sections 25115, 25117, 25122.7, 25140, 25249.8, 25281, 25316, and 25501 of the California
Health and Safety Code. “Environmental Laws” shall include any statutory or common law that has
developed or develops in the future regarding mold, fungus, microbiological pollutants, mildew,
bacteria and/or other organic spore material. “Environmental Laws” shall not include laws relating
to industrial hygiene or worker
42
safety, except to the extent that such laws address asbestos and asbestos containing materials
(whether friable or non-friable) or lead and lead based paint or other lead containing materials.
(c) During its use and occupancy of the Premises Tenant will not permit Hazardous Materials to
be present on or about the Premises except for normal quantities of cleaning and other business
supplies customarily used and stored in an office and that it will comply with all Environmental
Laws relating to the use, storage or disposal of any such Hazardous Materials.
(d) If Tenant’s use of Hazardous Materials on or about the Premises results in a release,
discharge or disposal of Hazardous Materials on, in, at, under, or emanating from, the Premises or
the property in which the Premises are located, Tenant agrees to investigate, clean up, remove or
remediate such Hazardous Materials in full compliance with (i) the requirements of (A) all
Environmental Laws and (B) any governmental agency or authority responsible for the enforcement of
any Environmental Laws; and (ii) any additional requirements of Landlord that are necessary, in
Landlord’s sole discretion, to protect the value of the Premises or the property in which the
Premises are located. Additionally, if Tenant’s use of Hazardous Materials on or about the
Premises results in a release, discharge or disposal of Hazardous Materials on, in, at, under, or
emanating from, the Premises or the Property in which the Premises are located, Landlord shall also
have the right, but not the obligation, to take whatever action with respect to any such Hazardous
Materials that it deems necessary, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to protect the value of the
Premises or the property in which the Premises are located. All costs and expenses paid or
incurred by Landlord in the exercise of such right shall be payable by Tenant promptly upon demand.
(e) Upon reasonable notice to Tenant, Landlord may inspect the Premises for the purpose of
determining whether there exists on the Premises any Hazardous Materials or other condition or
activity that is in violation of the requirements of this Lease or of any Environmental Laws. The
right granted to Landlord herein to perform inspections shall not create a duty on Landlord’s part
to inspect the Premises, or liability on the part of Landlord for Tenant’s use, storage or disposal
of Hazardous Materials, it being understood that Tenant shall be solely responsible for all
liability in connection therewith.
(f) Except for any preexisting or other causes or conditions for which Tenant is not
responsible, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease free of (i) mold, Mold Conditions (defined below), debris, waste and (ii)
Hazardous Materials and in a condition which complies with all Environmental Laws and any
additional requirements of Landlord that are reasonably necessary to protect the value of the
Premises, the Building or the Project. Tenant’s obligations and liabilities pursuant to this
Paragraph 32 shall be in addition to any other surrender requirements in this Lease and shall
survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. For purposes hereof, the term “normal
wear and tear” shall not include any deterioration in the condition or diminution of the value of
any portion of the Premises, the Building, and/or the Project in any manner whatsoever related to
directly, or indirectly, Hazardous Materials for which Tenant is responsible hereunder.
(g) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims,
damages, fines, judgments, penalties, costs, losses (including, without limitation, loss in value
of the Premises or the property in which the Premises is located, damages due to loss or
43
restriction of rentable or usable space, and damages due to any adverse impact on marketing of
the space and any and all sums paid for settlement of claims), liabilities and expenses (including,
without limitation, attorneys’, consultants’, and experts’ fees) incurred by Landlord during or
after the Term and attributable to (i) any Hazardous Materials placed on or about the Premises, the
Building or the Project by Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, or resulting from the action or inaction of
Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, or (ii) Tenant’s breach of any provision of this Paragraph 32. This
indemnification includes, without limitation, any and all costs incurred by Landlord due to any
investigation of the site or any cleanup, removal or restoration mandated by a federal, state or
local agency or political subdivision.
(h) Because mold spores are present essentially everywhere and mold can grow in almost any
moist location, Tenant acknowledges the necessity of adopting and enforcing good housekeeping
practices, ventilation and vigilant moisture control within the Premises (particularly in kitchen
areas, janitorial closets, bathrooms, in and around water fountains and other plumbing facilities
and fixtures, break rooms, in and around outside walls, and in and around HVAC systems and
associated drains) for the prevention of mold (such measures, “Mold Prevention
Practices”). Tenant will, at its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain the Premises in
good order and condition in accordance with the Mold Prevention Practices and acknowledges that the
control of moisture, and prevention of mold within the Premises, are integral to its obligations
under this Lease.
(i) Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall:
(i) Regularly monitor the Premises for the presence of mold and any conditions that reasonably
can be expected to give rise to or be attributed to mold or fungus including, but not limited to,
observed or suspected instances of water damage, condensation, seepage, leaks or any other water
collection or penetration (from any source, internal or external), mold growth, mildew, repeated
complaints of respiratory ailments or eye irritation by Tenant’s employees or any other occupants
of the Premises, or any notice from a governmental agency of complaints regarding the indoor air
quality at the Premises (the “Mold Conditions”); and
(ii) Immediately notify Landlord in writing if it observes, suspects, has reason to believe
mold or Mold Conditions in, at, or about the Premises or a surrounding area.
(j) In the event of suspected mold or Mold Conditions in, at, or about the Premises and
surrounding areas, Landlord may cause an inspection of the Premises to be conducted, during such
time as Landlord may designate, to determine if mold or Mold Conditions are present in, at, or
about the Premises.
(k) Tenant hereby releases and relieves Landlord from any and all liability for bodily injury
and damage to property, waives any and all claims against Landlord and assumes all risk of personal
injury and property damage related to or allegedly caused by or associated with any mold or Mold
Conditions in or on the Premises existing on the Commencement Date or arising thereafter.
The provisions of this Paragraph 32 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease.
44
33. Notices
All notices and demands which are required or may be permitted to be given to either party by
the other hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sent by United States mail, postage prepaid,
certified, or by personal delivery or nationally recognized overnight courier, addressed to the
addressee at Tenant’s Address or Landlord’s Address as specified in the Basic Lease Information, or
to such other place as either party may from time to time designate in a notice to the other party
given as provided herein. Copies of all notices and demands given to Landlord shall additionally
be sent to Landlord’s property manager at the address specified in the Basic Lease Information or
at such other address as Landlord may specify in writing from time to time. Notice shall be deemed
given upon actual receipt (or attempted delivery if delivery is refused), if personally delivered,
or one (1) business day following deposit with a reputable overnight courier that provides a
receipt, or on the third (3rd) day following deposit in the United States mail in the manner
described above.
34. Waiver
The waiver of any breach of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or of any subsequent breach of the same or any
other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of Rent by Landlord
shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant, other than the failure of
Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such
preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No delay or omission in the exercise of
any right or remedy of Landlord in regard to any Default by Tenant shall impair such a right or
remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by Landlord of any Default must be in writing and
shall not be a waiver of any other Default concerning the same or any other provisions of this
Lease.
35. Holding Over
Any holding over after the expiration of the Term, without the express written consent of
Landlord, shall constitute a Default and, without limiting Landlord’s remedies provided in this
Lease, such holding over shall be construed to be a tenancy at sufferance, at a rental rate equal
to the greater of the fair market rental value for the Premises (as reasonably determined by
Landlord) or one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent last due in this Lease, plus one
hundred percent (100%) of the Additional Rent, and shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions
herein specified, so far as applicable; provided, however, that in no event shall any renewal or
expansion option, option to purchase, or other similar right or option contained in this Lease be
deemed applicable to any such tenancy at sufferance.
36. Successors and Assigns
The terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease shall, subject to the provisions as to
assignment, apply to and bind the heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns of all
of the parties hereto. If Tenant shall consist of more than one entity or person, the obligations
of Tenant under this Lease shall be joint and several.
45
37. Time
Time is of the essence of this Lease and each and every term, condition and provision herein.
38. Brokers
Landlord and Tenant each represents and warrants to the other that neither it nor its officers
or agents nor anyone acting on its behalf has dealt with any real estate broker except the
Broker(s) specified in the Basic Lease Information in the negotiating or making of this Lease, and
each party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other from any claim or claims, and costs and
expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the indemnified party in conjunction with any such
claim or claims of any other broker or brokers to a commission in connection with this Lease as a
result of the actions of the indemnifying party.
39. Limitation of Liability
In the event of any default or breach by Landlord under this Lease or arising in connection
herewith or with Landlord’s operation, management, leasing, repair, renovation, alteration or any
other matter relating to the Project or the Premises, Tenant’s remedies shall be limited solely and
exclusively to an amount which is equal to the lesser of (a) the interest in the Building of the
then-current Landlord or (b) the equity interest Landlord would have in the Building if the
Building were encumbered by third party debt in an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of the value
of the Building (as such value is determined by Landlord), provided that in no event shall such
liability extend to any sales or insurance proceeds received by Landlord or the “Landlord Parties”
in connection with the Project, the Building or the Premises. For purposes of this Lease,
“Landlord Parties” shall mean, collectively, Landlord, its partners, shareholders,
officers, directors, employees, investment advisors, or any successor in interest of any of them.
Neither Landlord, nor any of the Landlord Parties shall have any personal liability therefor, and
Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases such personal liability on behalf of itself and all
persons claiming by, through or under Tenant. The limitations of liability contained in this
Paragraph 39 shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s and the Landlord Parties’ present and future
partners, beneficiaries, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, agents and employees, and
their respective partners, heirs, successors and assigns. Under no circumstances shall any present
or future partner of Landlord (if Landlord is a partnership), future member in Landlord (if
Landlord is a limited liability company) or trustee or beneficiary (if Landlord or any partner or
member of Landlord is a trust), have any liability for the performance of Landlord’s obligations
under this Lease. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, neither Landlord nor the Landlord
Parties shall be liable under any circumstances for injury or damage to, or interference with
Tenant’s business, including, but not limited to, loss of profits, loss of rents or other revenues,
loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill or loss of use, in each case, however occurring.
The provisions of this Paragraph shall apply only to Landlord and the parties herein described, and
shall not be for the benefit of any insurer nor any other third party.

then current financial statements of Tenant (including interim periods following the end of the
last fiscal year for which annual statements are available), prepared or compiled by a certified
public accountant, including a balance sheet and profit and loss statement for the most recent
prior year, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied.
41. Rules and Regulations
Tenant shall comply with the rules and regulations attached hereto as Exhibit C,
along with any modifications, amendments and supplements thereto, and such reasonable rules and
regulations as Landlord may adopt in the future, from time to time, for the orderly and proper
operation of the Building and the Project (collectively, the “Rules and Regulations”).
The Rules and Regulations may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: (a) restriction
of employee parking to a limited, designated area or areas; and (b) regulation of the removal,
storage and disposal of Tenant’s refuse and other rubbish. The then-current Rules and Regulations

and Regulations.
42. Mortgagee Protection
(a) Modifications for Lender. If, in connection with obtaining financing for the Project or
any portion thereof, Landlord’s lender shall request reasonable modifications to this Lease as a
condition to such financing, Tenant shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or defer its consent to
such modifications, provided that such modifications do not materially adversely affect Tenant’s
rights or increase Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
(b) Rights to Cure. Tenant shall give to any trust deed or mortgage holder
(“Holder”), by a method provided for in Paragraph 33, at the same time as it is given
to Landlord, a copy of any notice of default given to Landlord, provided that, prior to such
notice, Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of notice of assignment of rents and leases, or
otherwise) of the address of such Holder. Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed
to cure such default within the time provided for in this Lease, then the Holder shall have an
additional reasonable period within which to cure such default, or if such default cannot be cured
without Holder pursuing its remedies against Landlord, then such additional time as may be
necessary to commence and complete a foreclosure proceeding, provided Holder commences and
thereafter diligently pursues the remedies necessary to cure such default (including, but not
limited to, commencement of foreclosure proceedings, if necessary to effect such cure), in which
event this Lease shall not be terminated.
43. Parking
(a) Provided that Tenant shall not then be in Default under the terms and conditions of this
Lease; and provided, further, that Tenant shall comply with and abide by Landlord’s parking rules
and regulations from time to time in effect, Tenant shall have a license to use for the
47
parking of standard-size passenger automobiles, pick-up trucks, vans and SUVs the number of
exclusive and designated and non-exclusive and undesignated parking spaces, if any, set forth in
the Basic Lease Information in the Parking Areas; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be
required to enforce Tenant’s right to use such parking spaces; and provided, further, that the
number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant hereunder shall be reduced on a proportionate basis in
the event any of the parking spaces in the Parking Areas are taken or otherwise eliminated as a
result of any Condemnation or casualty event affecting such Parking Areas or any modifications made
by Landlord to such Parking Areas. All unreserved parking spaces will be on a first-come,
first-served basis in common with other tenants of and visitors to the Project in parking spaces
provided by Landlord from time to time in the Project’s Parking Areas. In the event Tenant is
granted the use of exclusive and designated parking spaces, as indicated in the Basic Lease
Information, then such spaces shall be located in the area(s) designated by Landlord from time to
time. Tenant’s license to use the parking spaces provided for herein shall be subject to such
terms, conditions, rules and regulations as Landlord or the operator of the Parking Areas may
impose from time to time.

permanently affixed and visible identification sticker to be provided by Landlord. Tenant shall
not and shall not permit Tenant’s Agents to park any vehicles in locations other than those
specifically designated by Landlord as being for Tenant’s use. The license granted hereunder is
for self-service parking only and does not include additional rights or services. Neither Landlord
nor Landlord’s Agents shall be liable for: (i) loss or damage to any vehicle or other personal
property parked or located upon or within such parking spaces or any Parking Areas whether pursuant
to this license or otherwise and whether caused by fire, theft, explosion, strikes, riots or any
other cause whatsoever; or (ii) injury to or death of any person in, about or around such parking
spaces or any Parking Areas or any vehicles parking therein or in proximity thereto whether caused
by fire, theft, assault, explosion, riot or any other cause whatsoever; and Tenant hereby waives
any claim for or in respect to the above and against all claims or liabilities arising out of loss
or damage to property or injury to or death of persons, or both, relating to any of the foregoing.
Tenant shall not assign any of its rights hereunder and, in the event an attempted assignment is
made, it shall be void.
(c) Tenant recognizes and agrees that visitors, clients and/or customers (collectively, the
“Visitors”) to the Project and the Premises must park automobiles or other vehicles
only in areas designated by Landlord from time to time as being for the use of such Visitors, and
Tenant hereby agrees to ask its Visitors to park only in the areas designated by Landlord from time
to time for the use of Tenant’s Visitors.
(d) In the event any tax, surcharge or regulatory fee is at any time imposed by any
governmental authority upon or with respect to parking or vehicles parking in the parking spaces
referred to herein, Tenant shall pay such tax, surcharge or regulatory fee as Additional Rent under
this Lease, such payments to be made in advance and from time to time as required by Landlord
(except that they shall be paid monthly with Base Rent payments if permitted by the governmental
authority).
48

the obligations hereunder imposed shall be joint and several.
45. Interest
Any installment of Rent and any other sum due from Tenant under this Lease which is not
received by Landlord within three (3) days from when the same is due shall bear interest from the
date such payment was originally due under this Lease until paid at the lesser of (a) an annual
rate equal to the maximum rate of interest permitted by law, or (b) twelve percent (12%) per annum.
Payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any Default by Tenant. In addition, Tenant
shall pay all costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord in collection of such amounts.
46. Governing Law; Construction
This Lease shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of state in which
the Premises is located. The parties acknowledge and agree that no rule of construction to the
effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall be employed in the

48. Name of Building
In the event Landlord chooses to change the name or address of the Building and/or the
Project, Tenant agrees that such change shall not affect in any way its obligations under this
50
Lease, and that, except for the name or address change, all terms and conditions of this
Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Tenant agrees further that such name or address
change shall not require a formal amendment to this Lease, but shall be effective upon Tenant’s
receipt of written notification from Landlord of said change.
49. Security
(a) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, while Landlord may in its sole and absolute
discretion engage security personnel to patrol the Building or the Project, Landlord is not
providing any security services with respect to the Premises and that Landlord shall not be liable
to Tenant for, and Tenant waives any claim against Landlord with respect to, any bodily injury,
loss by theft or any other damage suffered or incurred by Tenant or Tenant’s employees, invitees,
and visitors in connection with any unauthorized entry into the Premises or any other breach of
security with respect to the Premises, the Building or the Project.
(b) Tenant hereby agrees to the exercise by Landlord and Landlord’s Agents, within their sole
discretion, of such security measures as, but not limited to, the evacuation of the Premises, the
Building or the Project for cause, suspected cause or for drill purposes, the denial of any access
to the Premises, the Building or the Project and other similarly related actions that it deems
necessary to prevent any threat of property damage or bodily injury. The exercise of such security
measures by Landlord and Landlord’s Agents, and the resulting interruption of service and cessation
of Tenant’s business, if any, shall not be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and
possession of the Premises, or any part thereof, or render Landlord or Landlord’s Agents liable to
Tenant for any resulting damages or relieve Tenant from Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
50. Jury Trial Waiver
Tenant hereby waives any right to trial by jury with respect to any action or proceeding (a)
brought by Landlord, Tenant or any other party, relating to (i) this Lease and/or any

51. Recordation
Neither this Lease, nor any memorandum, affidavit or other writing with respect thereto, shall
be recorded by Tenant or by any one acting through, under or on behalf of Tenant, and the recording
thereof in violation of this provision shall make this Lease null and void at Landlord’s election.
51
52. Right to Lease
Landlord reserves the absolute right to effect such other tenancies in the Project as Landlord
in the exercise of its sole business judgment shall determine to best promote the interest of the
Project. Tenant does not rely on the fact, nor does Landlord represent, that any specific tenant
or type or number of tenants shall, during the Term, occupy any space in the Project.
53. Force Majeure
Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, acts of God,
inability to obtain services, labor, or materials or reasonable substitutes therefor, governmental
actions, civil commotions, fire or other casualty, and other causes beyond the reasonable control
of the party obligated to perform, except with respect to the obligations imposed with regard to
Rent and other charges to be paid by Tenant pursuant to this Lease (collectively, the “Force
Majeure”), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, shall excuse the
performance of such party for a period equal to any such prevention, delay or stoppage and
therefore, if this Lease specifies a time period for performance of an obligation of either party,
that time period shall be extended by the period of any delay in such party’s performance cause by
a Force Majeure.
54. Renewal Option (With FMV Rent)
(a) Exercise of Option. Provided Tenant is not in default (beyond applicable notice and grace
periods) pursuant to any of the terms and conditions of this Lease, at the date of both the
Extension Notice and the effective date of the Option, Tenant shall have the option (the
“Option”) to renew this Lease for an additional five (5) year period (the
“Extension Term”) for the period commencing on the date following the Expiration Date
upon the terms and conditions contained in this Paragraph 54. To exercise the Option, Tenant shall
give Landlord notice (the “Extension Notice”) of intent to exercise said Option not
less than six (6) months nor more than nine (9) months prior to the date on which the Extension
Term which is the subject of the notice will commence. The notice shall be given as provided in
Paragraph 33 hereof. In the event Tenant exercises the Option, this Lease will terminate in its
entirety at the end of the Extension Term and Tenant will have no further option to renew or extend
the Term of this Lease.
(b) Procedures for Determining Prevailing Market Rate.
(i) If Tenant timely exercises the Extension Option, not later than six (6) months prior to
the commencement of the Extension Term, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a good faith written
proposal of the Prevailing Market Rate for the Premises for the Extension Term. Within thirty (30)
days after receipt of Landlord’s proposal, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing that (A) Tenant
accepts Landlord’s proposal or (B) Tenant rejects Landlord’s proposal. If Tenant does not give
Landlord a timely notice in response to Landlord’s proposal, Landlord’s proposal of Prevailing
Market Rate for the Extension Term shall be deemed rejected by Tenant.
(ii) If Tenant timely rejects Landlord’s proposal, Landlord and Tenant shall first negotiate
in good faith in an attempt to agree upon the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term. If
Landlord and Tenant are able to agree within thirty (30) days following the earlier of (A)
Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice rejecting Landlord’s proposal or (B) the expiration of
52
the thirty (30) day period referred to in subparagraph (a) above (the “Negotiation
Period”), such agreement shall constitute a determination of Prevailing Market Rate for
purposes of this Article. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Prevailing Market
Rate during the Negotiation Period, then within thirty (30) days after expiration of the
Negotiation Period, the parties shall meet and concurrently deliver to each other their respective
written estimates of the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term, supported by the reasons
therefore (respectively, “Landlord’s Determination” and “Tenant’s
Determination”). Landlord’s Determination may be more or less than its initial proposal of
Prevailing Market Rate. If either party fails to deliver its Determination in a timely manner,
then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be the amount specified by the other party. If the higher of
such Determinations is not more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower of such
Determinations, then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be the average of the two Determinations. If
the Prevailing Market Rate is not resolved by exchange of the Determinations, the Prevailing Market
Rate shall be determined as follows, each party being bound to its Determination and such
Determinations constituting the only two choices available to the Appraisal Panel (as hereinafter
defined).
(iii) Within thirty (30) days after the parties exchange Landlord’s and Tenant’s
Determinations, the parties shall each appoint a neutral and impartial appraiser who shall be
certified as an MAI or ASA appraiser and shall have at least ten (10) years’ experience,
immediately prior to his or her appointment, as a real estate appraiser of similar class office
properties in the City of Pleasanton and County of Contra Costa including significant experience
appraising suburban office space. 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, if there is no successor organization,
the organization and designation most similar), and an “ASA” appraiser means an individual who
holds the Senior Member designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American
Society of Appraisers (or its successor organization, or, if there is no successor organization,
the organization and designation most similar). If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an
appraiser within said thirty (30) day period, the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term
shall be the Determination of the other party who timely appointed an appraiser.
Landlord’s and Tenant’s appraisers shall work together in good faith to appoint a neutral or
impartial third party appraiser within ten (10) days, and notify both Landlord and Tenant of such
selection. The three appraisers shall then work together in good faith to decide which of the two
Determinations more closely reflects the Prevailing Market Rate of the Premises for the Extension
Term. The Determination selected by such appraisers shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If
all three appraisers cannot agree upon which of the two Determinations more closely reflects the
Prevailing Market Rate within forty-five (45) days, the decision of a majority of the appraisers
shall prevail.
(iv) Within five (5) days following notification of the identity of the third appraiser,
Landlord and Tenant shall submit copies of Landlord’s Determination and Tenant’s Determination to
the third appraiser. The three appraisers are referred to herein as the “Appraisal
Panel.” The Appraisal Panel, if it so elects, may conduct a hearing, at which Landlord and
Tenant may each make supplemental oral and/or written presentations, with an opportunity for
rebuttal by the other party and for questioning by the members of the Appraisal Panel. Within
53
forty-five (45) days following the appointment of the third appraiser, the Appraisal Panel, by
majority vote, shall select either Landlord’s Determination or Tenant’s Determination as the
Prevailing Market Rate of the Premises for the Extension Term, and shall have no right to propose a
middle ground or to modify either of the two proposals or the provisions of this Lease. The
decision of the Appraisal Panel shall be final and binding upon the parties, and may be enforced in
accordance with the provisions of California law. In the event of the failure, refusal or
inability of any member of the Appraisal Panel to act, a successor shall be appointed in the manner
that applied to the selection of the member being replaced.
(v) Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the appraiser appointed by such party, and
one-half of the fees and expenses of the third appraiser and the expenses incident to the
proceedings of the Appraisal Panel (excluding attorneys’ fees and similar expenses of the parties
which shall be borne separately by each of the parties).
(c) Prevailing Market Rate. As used in this Lease, the phrase “Prevailing Market
Rate” means the amount that a landlord under no compulsion to lease the Premises, and a tenant
under no compulsion to lease the Premises, would agree upon at arm’s length as Base Rent for the
Premises for the Extension Term, as of the commencement of the Extension Term. The Prevailing
Market Rate shall be based upon non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity lease transactions
recently entered into for space in the Building and in Comparable Buildings (“Comparison
Leases”) and may include periodic increases. Rental rates payable under Comparison Leases
shall be adjusted to account for variations between this Lease and the Comparison Leases with
respect to: (i) the length of the Extension Term compared to the lease term of the Comparison
Leases; (ii) rental structure, including additional rent, and taking into consideration any “base
year” or “expense stops”; (iii) the size of the Premises compared to the size of the premises under
the Comparison Leases; (iv) utility, location, floor level, views, and efficiencies of the Premises
compared to the premises under the Comparison Leases; (v) the age and quality of construction of
the Building; (vi) the value of existing leasehold improvements to Tenant; (vii) the financial
condition and credit history of Tenant compared to the tenants under the Comparison Leases, and
(viii) any other relevant economic factors. For purposes of this Paragraph, Comparable Buildings
shall include, but not be limited to: Xxxx America Corporate Center; Hacienda Terrace; Dublin
Corporate Center; and Stoneridge Corporate Plaza. This option is personal to the original Tenant
under the Lease or a Permitted Transferee.
55. Right of First Offer.
(a) Subject to the terms of this Paragraph 55 , Tenant shall have a continuous and recurring
right of first offer (the “Right of First Offer”) during the Term to lease all or any
portion of the space located on the forth (4th) floor of the Building (each a
“First Offer Space”), when and if any such First Offer Space becomes available for
lease by a party other than the existing tenant of the First Offer Space during the Term. The
Right of First Offer is personal to Tenant and may not be exercised by any sublessee or assignee,
or by any other successor or assign, of Tenant. The Right of First Offer shall be effective only
if Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, nor is any event then occurring and continuing which
with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a Default hereunder,
either at the time of exercise of the Right of First Offer or on the First Offer Commencement Date
(as hereinafter defined).
54
(b) In the event that Landlord elects to market or offer to the public for lease any First
Offer Space, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the terms and conditions upon which
Landlord would be willing to lease such First Offer Space to Tenant (a “First Offer Space
Availability Notice”). Tenant shall thereafter have the right to lease such First Offer Space
on the terms and conditions specified in the First Offer Space Availability Notice by written
notice (a “First Offer Notice”) to Landlord given not later than twenty (20) days after
Tenant’s receipt of the First Offer Space Availability Notice. If Tenant fails to deliver a First
Offer Notice to Landlord on a timely basis as provided in the preceding sentence, then Tenant shall
be deemed to have elected not to exercise the Right of First Offer with respect to such First Offer
Space.
(c) In the event Tenant fails to exercise its Right of First Offer in a timely manner as
provided herein, the Right of First Offer shall lapse and Landlord shall thereafter have the right
to lease such First Offer Space to any party or parties on terms deemed acceptable to Landlord in
its sole and absolute discretion. If such First Offer Space is not leased within six (6) months
thereafter, then this Right of First Offer will again apply to that First Offer Space. If Tenant
validly exercises the Right of First Offer, then (1) Tenant’s lease of such First Offer Space shall
commence on a date (a “First Offer Commencement Date”) specified in the First Offer
Space Availability Notice, (2) such First Offer Space shall be leased to Tenant upon the terms and
conditions set forth in the First Offer Space Availability Notice, (3) Tenant’s Proportionate Share
of the Building and the Project shall be increased to reflect the First Offer Space, and (4) the
First Offer Space shall be delivered to Tenant in its “as-is” condition on the First Offer
Commencement Date, Tenant acknowledging and agreeing that Landlord shall have no obligation to
improve, remodel or otherwise alter such First Offer Space prior to or after the First Offer
Commencement Date, except to the extent expressly provided in the First Offer Space Availability
Notice.
(d) In the event Tenant exercises its Right of First Offer, then from and after the First
Offer Commencement Date, the term “Premises,” whenever used in this Lease, shall mean the original
Premises demised under this Lease and the First Offer Space (except, in the case of the First Offer
Space then being leased, to the extent that the terms of this Lease are not consistent with the
terms and conditions specified in the First Offer Space Availability Notice).
56. Termination Option
(a) Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease on the terms and conditions set forth
in this Paragraph 56 (the “Termination Option”). The Termination Option is personal to
Callidus Software, Inc. or any Permitted Transferee and may not be exercised by any other sublessee
or assignee, or by any other successor or assign, of Callidus Software, Inc.. The Termination
Option shall be effective only if Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, nor has any event
occurred which with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a
Default hereunder, either at the time of the exercise of the Termination Option or on the
Termination Date (as hereinafter defined).
(b) In the event Tenant elects to exercise the Termination Option, then Tenant shall provide
written notice (the “Termination Notice”) to Landlord by August 1, 2015. Any such
Termination Notice given by Tenant to Landlord shall be irrevocable. If Tenant delivers a
Termination Notice to Landlord, then subject to Paragraph 56(a) above, the Lease shall terminate
55
on January 28, 2016 (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that as a
condition precedent to the termination of the Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at the time of
delivery of the Termination Notice, an amount equal to five (5) full months of the monthly Base
Rent that was payable as of the Termination Date.
57. Server Room Equipment
(a) During the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall have the right, at no cost to Tenant, to use
the equipment and infrastructure located in the server room portion of the Premises located on the
first floor of the Building and as described on Exhibit F hereto as well as the
Existing Wiring (collectively, the “IT Equipment”), subject to the terms and conditions
contained in this paragraph 57. All right, title or interest in IT Equipment shall be in and
remain with Landlord and no right, title or interest in IT Equipment shall pass to Tenant other
than the right to use the IT Equipment for the Term of this Lease.
(b) Tenant shall: (i) at its sole expense, keep and maintain each item of IT Equipment in the
same condition received (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and in compliance with all applicable
Laws and all instructions and recommendations as to the repair and maintenance of such item of IT
Equipment issued at any time by the vendor and/or manufacturer thereof; (ii) maintain conspicuously
on any of IT Equipment such labels, plates, decals or other markings as Landlord may reasonably
place thereon, stating that Landlord is the owner of such IT Equipment; (iii) furnish to Landlord
such information concerning the condition, location, use and operation of the IT Equipment as
Landlord reasonably may request; (iv) make no additions, alterations, modifications or improvements
to any item of any IT Equipment without Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld; (v) not, directly or indirectly, create, incur or permit to exist any lien,
encumbrance, mortgage, pledge, attachment or security interest on or with respect to any IT
Equipment; and (vi) use IT Equipment solely in the conduct of Tenant’s business and keep IT
Equipment in the server room portion of the Premises.
(c) Without limiting the generality of Paragraph 57(b) above, in connection with Tenant’s
maintenance of the Xxxxxxx XX units, Tenant shall obtain and keep in force a preventive maintenance
contract providing for regular (at least quarterly) inspection and maintenance by a qualified
service contractor(s) reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Prior to April 1 of each calendar year,
Tenant shall deliver Landlord written confirmation from such service contractor(s) verifying that
such a contract has been entered into and that the required service will be provided.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Tenant’s obligation to maintain
the IT Equipment (including the Xxxxxxx XX units) in good order and condition include any capital
repairs or replacements, unless necessary due to Tenant’s negligence or willful misconduct.
Additionally, in the event any capital repairs or replacements are necessary to maintain the
Xxxxxxx XX units in good order and condition, the same shall be performed by Landlord, and Tenant
shall only be required to pay an amortized portion of the cost of such capital repair or
replacement falling due within the Term (including any renewal term) based upon the amortization of
such capital repair or replacement over its useful life, as reasonably determined by Landlord.
(d) Tenant acknowledges that the dedicated Xxxxxxx XX units servicing the server room portion
of the Premises as well as two (2) heat pump units located on the 5th floor are serviced
by
56
a roof mounted cooling tower (the “Cooling Tower”) that also services other
tenant’s dedicated HVAC systems. Although the Cooling Tower will be operated, maintained and
repaired by Landlord, Tenant shall pay its proportionate share of the cost of such operation,
maintenance and repair and such costs shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent within 30 days
following invoice. Tenant’s “proportionate share” for purposes of this Paragraph 57(d) shall be a
fraction, the numerator of which is the total tonnage of Tenant’s HVAC that is serviced by the
Cooling Tower and the denominator of which is the total aggregate tonnage of HVAC that is serviced
by the Cooling Tower. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, Landlord shall permit
Tenant to connect additional dedicated HVAC units to the Cooling Tower, subject to the Cooling
Tower having adequate excess capacity.
(e) TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LANDLORD IS NOT THE MANUFACTURER OR SUPPLIER OF THE IT EQUIPMENT,
NOR THE AGENT THEREOF, AND THAT LANDLORD MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES
AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER IN CONNECTION WITH IT EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE
MERCHANTABILITY OF THE IT EQUIPMENT, ITS FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ITS DESIGN OR CONDITION,
ITS CAPACITY OR DURABILITY, OR THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP IN THE MANUFACTURE OR
ASSEMBLY OF IT EQUIPMENT. Except as expressly set forth herein, Landlord is not responsible for
any repairs or service to IT Equipment, defects therein or failures in the operation thereof.
Landlord shall have no liability in connection with or arising out of the ownership, leasing,
furnishing, performance or use of IT Equipment or, in any event, any special, indirect, incidental
or consequential damages of any character, including, without limitation, loss of use of production
facilities or equipment, loss of profits, property damage or lost production, whether suffered by
Tenant or any third party.
58. Contingency
Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that this Lease and all of the terms and conditions herein are
expressly contingent upon Landlord entering into an early termination agreement for the Premises
with Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx & Co., Inc., a California corporation (“Schwab”) on terms and
conditions acceptable to Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion.
59. Counterparts
The parties may execute this Lease in multiple counterparts, each of which constitutes an
original, and all of which, collectively, constitute only one agreement. The signatures of all of
the parties need not appear on the same counterpart, and delivery of an executed counterpart
signature page by electronic means is as effective as executing and delivering this Lease in the
presence of the other parties to this Lease. This Lease is effective upon delivery of one executed
counterpart from each party to the other parties. In proving this Lease, a party must produce or
account only for the executed counterpart of the party to be charged. Any party delivering an
executed counterpart of this Lease by electronic means shall also deliver a manually executed
counterpart of this Lease, but the failure to do so does not affect the validity, enforceability,
or binding effect of this Lease.
57
60. Acceptance
This Lease shall only become effective and binding upon full execution hereof by Landlord and
delivery of a signed copy to Tenant and Landlord’s receipt of any Security Deposit.

Tenant Work Letter, the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be disbursed by Landlord only for
the following items and costs (collectively the “Tenant Improvement Allowance
Items”) and, except as otherwise specifically and expressly provided in this Tenant Work
Letter, Landlord shall not deduct any other expenses from the Tenant Improvement Allowance.
The Tenant Improvement Allowance Items shall consist of:

conditions;
(iv) The cost of any changes in the base Building when such changes are required by Tenant’s
occupancy and as noted in the approved Construction Drawings (including if such changes are due to

Allowance for the benefit of Tenant and shall authorize the release of monies for the benefit
of Tenant as follows.
(i) Monthly Disbursements. From time-to-time, but not more frequently than monthly
(each, a “Submittal Date”) during the period from the date hereof through the
construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord: (A) a request for
payment of the “Contractor,” as that term is defined in Section 3.1 of this Tenant Work Letter,
and/or to the “Architect” and/or to the “Engineers,” as such terms are defined in Section 2.1
below, and/or to Tenant’s various consultants or other persons or entities entitled to payment (or
reimbursement to Tenant if Tenant has already paid the Contractor or other person or entity
entitled to payment), approved by Tenant, in a form to be provided by Landlord, showing the
schedule, by trade, of percentage of completion of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises,
detailing the portion of the work completed; (B) invoices from all of Tenant’s Agents (hereinafter
defined) for labor rendered and materials and equipment delivered to the Premises for the
applicable payment period; (C) executed conditional mechanics’ lien releases from all of applicable
Tenant’s Agents that have mechanic lien rights, which shall substantially comply with the
appropriate provisions of California Civil Code Section 3262(d) or unconditional releases if
appropriate; provided, however, that with respect to fees and expenses of the Architect, Engineers,
or construction or project managers or other similar consultants, and/or any other pre-construction
items or FF&E costs, for which the payment scheme set forth in items (A) through
B-2
(C) above of this Tenant Work Letter, is not
applicable (collectively, the
“Non-Construction Allowance Items”), Tenant shall only be required to deliver to
Landlord on or before the applicable Submittal Date, reasonable evidence of incurring the cost for
the applicable Non-Construction Allowance Items (unless Landlord has received a preliminary notice
in connection with such costs in which event conditional lien releases must be submitted in
connection with such costs); and (D) all other information reasonably requested in good faith by
Landlord. Tenant’s request for payment shall be deemed Tenant’s acceptance and approval of the
work furnished and/or the materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request vis-à-vis
Landlord. Within thirty (30) days following the Submittal Date, and assuming Landlord receives all
of the information described in items (A) through (D) above, Landlord shall deliver a check to
Tenant made jointly payable to Contractor and Tenant or if Tenant elects, to the Contractor,
subcontractor, architect, engineer or consultant designated by Tenant and/or a separate check to
Tenant where Tenant has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that Tenant has paid
such Contractor (or other supplier of services or goods) accompanied when appropriate by
unconditional lien releases, or any other provider of goods and services designated by Tenant to
Landlord, and Tenant in payment of the lesser of: (1) the amounts so requested by Tenant, as set
forth above in this Section 1.2(b)(i), less a ten percent (10%) retention (the aggregate amount of
such retentions to be known as the “Final Retention”); provided, however, that no such
retention shall be duplicative of the retention Tenant would otherwise withhold (but will not
withhold) pursuant to its agreement with such Contractor and no such deduction shall be applicable
to amounts due to Tenant’s consultants, the Architect, or the Engineer or for Non-Construction
Allowance Items or other Tenant Improvement Allowance Items in connection with the payment of
suppliers for materials delivered to the Premises and subcontractors for completing performance of
their work substantially in advance of the completion of the Tenant Improvements pursuant to the
Approved Construction Drawings, and (2) the balance of any remaining available portion of the
Tenant Improvement Allowance (not including the Final Retention). In the event that Landlord or
Tenant identifies any material non-compliance with the Approved Construction Drawings, or
substandard work, Landlord or Tenant as appropriate shall be provided a detailed statement
identifying such material non-compliance or substandard work by the party claiming the same, and
Tenant shall cause such work to be corrected so that such work is no longer substandard. Such
procedure shall also be applicable in connection with the payment of the Final Retention.
Landlord’s payment of such amounts shall not be deemed Landlord’s approval or acceptance of the
work furnished or materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request. If Tenant receives
a check payable to anyone other than solely to Tenant, Tenant may return such check to Landlord and
receive a replacement check made payable only to Tenant within ten (10) business days, if Tenant
provides the releases and evidence to the extent required above to receive a check payable solely
to Tenant.
(ii) Final Retention. A check for the Final Retention payable jointly to Tenant and
Contractor (or payable solely to Tenant if Contractor is no longer owed any money by Tenant for
work performed in the Premises) shall be delivered by Landlord to Tenant following the completion
of construction of the Premises, provided that (A) Tenant delivers to Landlord properly executed
mechanics lien releases in compliance with both California Civil Code Section 3262(d)(2) and either
Section 3262(d)(3) or Section 3262(d)(4), (B) Architect delivers to Landlord a certificate, in a
form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, certifying that the construction of the Tenant Improvements
in the Premises has been substantially completed in
B-3
accordance with the terms of this Tenant Work Letter, and (C) Tenant fulfills its obligations
pursuant to Section 3.3 of this Tenant Work Letter.
(iii) Other Terms. Landlord shall only be obligated to make disbursements from the
Tenant Improvement Allowance to the extent costs are incurred by Tenant for Tenant Improvement
Allowance Items or are otherwise expressly permitted hereunder.
(c) Tenant Improvement Specifications. The Tenant Improvements shall be
constructed with new or like-new materials and of a quality consistent with interior tenant
improvements generally found in a Class A office building.

Landlord’s review of the same, or obligate Landlord to review the same, for quality, design,
code compliance or other like matters. Accordingly, notwithstanding that any Construction
Drawings are reviewed by Landlord or its space planner, architect, engineers and consultants,
and notwithstanding any advice or assistance which may be rendered to Tenant by Landlord or
Landlord’s space planner, architect, engineers, and consultants, Landlord shall have no
liability whatsoever in connection therewith, except to the extent that Landlord has
specifically requested a modification to the Construction Drawings as a condition to
Landlord’s approval of the Construction Drawings, and shall not be responsible for any
omissions or errors contained in the Construction Drawings, and Tenant’s waiver and indemnity
set forth in this Lease shall specifically apply to the Construction Drawings. Each time
Landlord is granted the right to review, consent or approve the Construction Drawings or any

obtaining any Permits or certificate of occupancy for the Premises and that obtaining the same
shall be Tenant’s responsibility; provided, however, that Landlord shall cooperate at no cost
to Landlord with Tenant in performing ministerial acts reasonably necessary to enable Tenant

Drawings, Tenant shall deliver notice (the “Drawing Change Notice”) of the same to
Landlord, setting forth in detail the changes (the “Tenant Change”) Tenant desires

reasonably sufficient detail the reasons for Landlord’s disapproval. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord’s consent shall not be required for Tenant Changes which meet the criteria

with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant as set forth in this Lease (provided
that the limits of liability to be carried by such parties shall be in an amount which is
customary for such respective parties employed by tenants constructing improvements in the
Comparable Buildings), and the policies therefor shall insure Landlord and Tenant, as their
interests may appear, as well as the Contractor and subcontractors.
(B) Special Coverages. Contractor shall carry “Builder’s All Risk” insurance, in
an amount approved by Landlord but not more than the amount of the Contract, covering the
construction of the Tenant Improvements, and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably
require, it being understood and agreed that the Tenant Improvements shall be insured by
Tenant pursuant to this Lease immediately upon
B-7
completion thereof. Such insurance shall be in amounts and shall include such extended
coverage endorsements as may be reasonably required by Landlord (to the extent they are

Lease is not terminated, Tenant shall immediately repair the same at Tenant’s sole cost and
expense. Tenant’s Agents shall maintain all of the foregoing insurance coverage in force
until the completion of the Tenant Improvements. All such insurance relating to property,

the waiver of subrogation.
(c) Governmental Compliance. The Tenant Improvements shall comply in all
respects with the following: (i) all Laws; (ii) applicable standards of the American
Insurance Association (formerly, the National Board of Fire Underwriters) and the National
Electrical Code; and (iii) building material manufacturer’s specifications.

Improvements at all reasonable times; provided, however, that Landlord’s failure to inspect
the Tenant Improvements shall in no event constitute a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights
hereunder nor shall Landlord’s inspection of the Tenant Improvements constitute Landlord’s
approval of the same. In the event that Landlord should disapprove any portion of the Tenant
Improvements during an inspection, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within a reasonable
time of such inspection of such disapproval and shall specify in reasonably sufficient detail
the items disapproved. Any defects or deviations in, and/or disapprovals in accordance
herewith by Landlord of, the Tenant Improvements shall be rectified by Tenant at Tenant’s
expense and at no expense to Landlord; provided, however, that in the event Landlord
determines that a defect or deviation exists or reasonably disapproves of any matter in
connection with any portion of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord may, following notice to
Tenant and a reasonable period of time for Tenant to cure, take such action as Landlord deems
necessary to correct the same, at Tenant’s expense, and at no additional expense to Landlord,
and without incurring any liability on Landlord’s part.

Improvements, which meetings shall be held at a location mutually agreeable by Tenant and
Landlord, and Landlord and/or its agents shall receive prior notice of, and shall have the
right to attend, all such meetings, and, upon Landlord’s request, certain of Tenant’s Agents

One such meeting each month shall include the review of the request by Tenant of Contractor’s
current request for payment.

completion of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall prepare a Notice of
Completion, which Landlord shall execute if factually correct, and Tenant shall cause such
Notice of Completion to be recorded in the appropriate office of the county recorder in
accordance with Section 3093 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor
statute, and shall furnish a copy thereof to Landlord upon such recordation. If Tenant fails
to do so, Landlord may execute and file the same on behalf of Tenant as Tenant’s agent for
such purpose, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. At the conclusion of construction, (i)
Tenant shall cause the Architect and Contractor (A) to update the Approved Construction
Drawings as necessary to reflect all changes made to the Approved Construction Drawings during
the course of construction, (B) to certify to the best of their knowledge that the updated
drawings are true and correct, which certification shall survive the expiration or termination
of this Lease, and (C) to deliver to Landlord two (2) CD-ROMs of such updated Approved
Construction Drawings, in CAD format, within forty-five (45) days following issuance of a
certificate of occupancy for the Premises, and (ii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of
