3. TERM.
3.1 TERM. The Commencement Date, Expiration Date and Original Term of
this Lease are as specified in Paragraph 1.3.
3.2 EARLY POSSESSION. If an Early Possession Date is specified in
Paragraph 1.4 and if Lessee totally or partially occupies the Premises after
the Early Possession Date but prior to the Commencement Date, the obligation
to pay Base Rent shall be abated for the period of such early occupancy. All
other terms of this Lease, however, (including, but not limited to, carry the
insurance required by Paragraph 8) shall be in effect during such period. Any
such early possession shall not affect nor advance the Expiration Date of the
Original Term.
3.3 DELAY IN POSSESSION. If for any reason Lessor cannot deliver
possession of the Premises to Lessee by the Early Possession Date, if one is
specified in Paragraph 1.4, or if no Early Possession Date is specified, by
the Commencement Date, Lessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor,
nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease, or the obligations
of Lessee hereunder, or extend the term hereof, but in such case, Lessee shall
not, except as otherwise provided herein, be obligated to pay rent or perform
any other obligation of Lessee under the terms of this Lease until Lessor
delivers possession of the Premises to Lessee. If possession of the Premises
is not delivered to Lessee within thirty (30)days after the Commencement Date,
Lessee may, at its option, by notice in writing to Lessor within ten (10) days
after the end of said thirty (30)day period, cancel this Lease, in which event
the Parties shall be discharged from all obligations hereunder; provided
further, however, that if such written notice of Lessee is not received by
Lessor within said ten (10) day period, Lessee's right to cancel this Lease
hereunder shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. Except as may
be otherwise provided, and regardless of when the Original Term actually
commences, if possession is not tendered to Lessee when required by this Lease
and Lessee does not terminate this Lease, as aforesaid, the period free of the
obligation to pay Base Rent, if any, that Lessee would otherwise have enjoyed
shall run from the date of delivery of possession and continue for a period
equal to the period during which the Lessee would have otherwise enjoyed under
the terms hereof, but minus any days of delay caused by the acts, changes or
omissions of Lessee.
4. RENT. See Addendum
4.1 BASE RENT. Lessee shall pay Base Rent and other rent or charges,
as the same may be adjusted from time to time, to Lessor in lawful money of
the United States, without offset or deduction, on or before the day on which
it is due under the terms of this Lease. Base Rent and all other rent and
charges for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one full
month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of the month
involved. Payment of Base Rent and other charges shall be made to Lessor at
its address stated herein or to such other persons or at such other addresses
as Lessor may from time to time designate in writing to Lessee.

PAGE 2 OF 13
(iii) Trash disposal. (See Adendum)
(v) Any increase above the Base Real Property Taxes (as
defined in Paragraph 10.2(b)) for the Building and the Common Areas.
(vi) Any "Insurance cost Increase" (as defined in Paragraph
8.1).
(c) The inclusion of the improvements, facilities and services set
forth in Subparagraph 4.2(a) shall not be deemed to impose an obligation upon
Lessor to either have said improvements or facilities or to provide those
services unless the Industrial Center already has the same, Lessor already
provides the services, or Lessor has agreed elsewhere in this Lease to
provide the same or some of them.
(d) Lessee's Share of Common Area Operating Expenses shall be
payable by Lessee within ten (10) days after a reasonably detailed statement
of actual expenses is presented to Lessee by Lessor. At Lessor's option,
however, an amount may be estimated by Lessor from time to time of Lessee's
Share of annual Common Area Operating Expenses and the same shall be payable
monthly or quarterly, as Lessor shall designate, during each 12-month period
of the Lease term, on the same day as the Base Rent is due hereunder. Lessor
shall deliver to Lessee within sixty (60) days after the expiration of each
calendar year a reasonably detailed statement showing Lessee's Share of the
actual Common Area Operating Expenses incurred during the preceding year. If
Lessee's payments under this Paragraph 4.2(d) during said preceding year
exceed Lessee's Share as indicated on said statement, Lessee shall be credited
the amount of such overpayment against Lessee's Share of Common Area Operating
Expenses next becoming due. If Lessee's payments under this Paragraph 4.2(d)
during said preceding year were less than Lessee's Share as indicated on said
statement, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency within ten
(10) days after delivery by Lessor to Lessee of said statement.
5. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon Lessee's execution
hereof the Security Deposit set forth in Paragraph 1.7 as security for
Lessee's faithful performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease. If
Lessee fails to pay Base Rent or other rent or charges due hereunder, or
otherwise Defaults under this Lease (as defined in Paragraph 13.1), Lessor
may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said Security Deposit for the
payment of any amount due Lessor or to reimburse or compensate Lessor for any
liability, cost, expense, loss or damage (including attorneys' fees) which
Lessor may suffer or incur by reason thereof. If Lessor uses or applies all
or any portion of said Security Deposit, Lessee shall within ten (10) days
after written request therefore deposit monies with Lessor sufficient to
restore said Security Deposit to the full amount required by this Lease.
Lessor shall not be required to keep all or any part of the Security Deposit
separate from its general accounts. Lessor shall, at the expiration or
earlier termination of the term hereof and after Lessee has vacated the
Premises, return to Lessee (or, at Lessor's option, to the last assignee, if
any, of Lessee's interest herein), that portion of the Security Deposit not
used or applied by Lessor. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by
Lessor, no part of the Security Deposit shall be considered to be held in
trust, to bear interest or other increment for its use, or to be prepayment
for any monies to be paid by Lessee under this Lease.
6. USE.
6.1 PERMITTED USE.
(a) Lessee shall use and occupy the Premises only for the
Permitted Use set forth in Paragraph 1.8, or any other legal use which is
reasonably comparable thereto, and for no other purpose. Lessee shall not use
or permit the use of the Premises in a manner that is unlawful, creates waste
or a nuisance, or that disturbs owners and/or occupants of, or causes damage
to the Premises or neighboring premises or properties.
(b) Lessor hereby agrees to not unreasonably withhold or delay
its consent to any written request by Lessee, Lessee's assignees or
subtenants, and by prospective assignees and subtenants of Lessee, its
assignees and subtenants, for a modification of said Permitted Use, so long as
the same will not impair the structural integrity of the improvements on the
Premises or in the Building or the mechanical or electrical systems therein,
does not conflict with uses by other lessees, is not significantly more
burdensome to the Premises or the Building and the improvements thereon, and
is otherwise permissible pursuant to this Paragraph 6. If Lessor elects to
withhold such consent, Lessor shall within five (5) business days after such
request give a written notification of same, which notice shall include an
explanation of Lessor's reasonable objections to the change in use.
6.2 HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES.
(a) REPORTABLE USES REQUIRE CONSENT. The term "HAZARDOUS
SUBSTANCE" as used in this Lease shall mean any product, substance, chemical,
material or waste whose presence, nature, quantity and/or intensity of
existence, use, manufacture, disposal, transportation, spill, release or
effect, either by itself or in combination with other materials expected to be
on the Premises, is either: (i) potentially injurious to the public health,
safety or welfare, the environment, or the Premises; (ii) regulated or
monitored by any governmental authority; or (iii) a basis for potential
liability of Lessor to any governmental agency or third party under any
applicable statute or common law theory. Hazardous Substance shall include,
but not be limited to, hydrocarbons, petroleum, gasoline, crude oil or any
products or by-products thereof. Lessee shall not engage in any activity in or
about the Premises which constitutes a Reportable Use (as hereinafter defined)
of Hazardous Substances without the express prior written consent of Lessor
and compliance in a timely manner (at Lessee's sole cost and expense) with all
Applicable Requirements (as defined in Paragraph 6.3). "REPORTABLE USE" shall
mean (i) the installation or use of any above or below ground storage tank,
(ii) the generation, possession, storage, use, transportation, or disposal of
a Hazardous Substance that requires a permit from, or with respect to which a
report, notice, registration or business plan is required to be filed with,
any governmental authority, and (iii) the presence in, on or about the
Premises of a Hazardous Substance with respect to which any Applicable Laws
require that a notice be given to persons entering or occupying the Premises
or neighboring properties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may, without
Lessor's prior consent, but upon notice to Lessor and in compliance with all
Applicable Requirements, use any ordinary and customary materials reasonably
required to be used by Lessee in the normal course of the Permitted Use, so
long as such use is not a Reportable Use and does not expose the Premises, or
neighboring properties to any meaningful risk of contamination or damage or
expose Lessor to any liability therefor. In addition, Lessor may (but without
any obligation to do so) condition its consent to any Reportable Use of any
Hazardous Substance by Lessee upon Lessee's giving Lessor such additional
assurances as Lessor, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary to protect
itself, the public, the Premises and the environment against damage,
contamination or injury and/or liability therefor, including, but not limited
to, the installation (and, at Lessor's option, removal on or before Lease
expiration or earlier termination) of reasonably necessary protective
modifications to the Premises (such as concrete encasements) and/or the
deposit of an additional Security Deposit under Paragraph 5 hereof.
(b) DUTY TO INFORM LESSOR. If Lessee knows, or has reasonable
cause to believe, that a Hazardous Substance has come to be located in, on,
under or about the Premises or the Building, other than as previously
consented to by Lessor, Lessee shall immediately give Lessor written notice
thereof, together with a copy of any statement, report, notice, registration,
application, permit, business plan, license, claim, action, or proceeding
given to, or received from, any governmental authority or private party
concerning the presence, spill, release, discharge of, or exposure to, such
Hazardous Substance including, but not limited to, all such documents as may
be involved in any Reportable Use involving the Premises. Lessee shall not
cause or permit any Hazardous Substance to be spilled or released in, on,
under or about the Premises (including, without limitation, through the
plumbing or sanitary sewer system).
(c) INDEMNIFICATION. Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend ad
hold Lessor, its agents, employees, lenders and ground lessor, if any, and the
Premises, harmless from and against any and all damages, liabilities,
judgments, costs, claims, liens, expenses, penalties, loss of permits and
attorneys' and consultants' fees arising out of or involving any Hazardous
Substance brought onto the Premises by or for Lessee or by anyone under
Lessee's control. Lessee's obligations under this Paragraph 6.2(c) shall
include, but not be limited to, the effects of any contamination or injury to
person, property or the environment created or suffered by Lessee, and the
cost of investigation (including consultants' and attorneys' fees and
testing), removal, remediation, restoration and/or abatement thereof, or of
any contamination therein involved, and shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease. No termination, cancellation or release
agreement entered into by Lessor and Lessee shall release Lessee from its
obligations under this lease with respect to Hazardous Substances, unless
specifically so agreed by

and otherwise at reasonable times and with 24 hours prior notice, for the
purpose of inspecting the condition of the Premises and for verifying
compliance by Lessee with this Lease and all Applicable Requirements (as

and/or consultants in connection therewith to advise Lessor with respect to
Lessee's activities, including, but not limited to, Lessee's installation,
operation, use, monitoring, maintenance, or removal of any Hazardous Substance

or materially contributed to by Lessee, is found to exist or to be imminent,
or unless the inspection is requested or ordered by a governmental authority
as the result of any such existing or imminent violation or contamination. In

written notice to Lessee (except in the case of an emergency, in which case no
notice shall be required), perform such obligations on Lessee's behalf, and
put the Premises in good order, condition and repair, in accordance with
Paragraph 13.2 below.
7.2 LESSOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 2.2
(Condition), 2.3 (Compliance with Covenants, Restrictions end Building Code),
4.2 (Common Area Operating Expenses), 6 (Use), 7.1 (Lessee's Obligations), 9
(Damage or Destruction) and 14 (Condemnation), Lessor, shall keep in good
order, condition and repair the foundations, exterior walls, structural
condition of interior bearing walls, exterior roof, fire sprinkler and/or
standpipe and hose (if located in the Common Areas) or other automatic fire
extinguishing system including fire alarm and/or smoke detection systems and
equipment, fire hydrants, parking lots, walkways, parkways, driveways,
landscaping, fences, signs and utility systems serving the Common Areas and
all parts thereof, as well as providing the services for which there is a
Common Area Operating Expense pursuant to Paragraph 4.2. Lessor shall not be
obligated to paint the exterior or interior surfaces of exterior walls nor
shall Lessor be obligated to maintain, repair or replace windows, doors or
plate glass of the Premises. Lessee expressly waives the benefit of any
statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford Lessee the
right to make repairs at Lessor's expense or to terminate this Lease because
of Lessor's failure to keep the Building, Industrial Center or Common Areas in
good order, condition and repair.
7.3 UTILITY INSTALLATIONS, TRADE FIXTURES, ALTERATIONS.
(a) DEFINITIONS; CONSENT REQUIRED. The term "UTILITY
INSTALLATIONS" is used in this Lease to refer to all air lines, power panels,
electrical distribution, security, fire protection systems, communications
systems, lighting fixtures, heating, ventilating and air conditioning
equipment, plumbing, and fencing in, on or about the Premises. The term "TRADE
FIXTURES" shall mean Lessee's machinery and equipment which can be removed
without doing material damage to the Premises. The term "ALTERATIONS" shall
mean any modification of the improvements on the Premises which are provided
by Lessor under the terms of this Lease, other than Utility installations or
Trade Fixtures. "LESSEE-OWNED ALTERATIONS AND/OR UTILITY INSTALLATIONS" are
defined as Alterations and/or Utility Installations made by Lessee that are
not yet owned by Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 7.4(a). Lessee shall not make
nor cause to be made any Alterations or Utility Installations in, on, under or
about the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. Lessee may,
however, make non-structural Utility Installations to the interior of the
Premises (excluding the roof) without Lessor's consent but upon notice to
Lessor, so long as they are not visible from the outside of the Premises, do
not involve puncturing, relocating or removing the roof or any existing walls,
or changing or interfering with the fire sprinkler or fire detection systems
and the cumulative cost thereof during the term of this Lease as extended does
not exceed $10,000.00
(b) CONSENT. Any Alterations or Utility Installations that Lessee
shall desire to make and which require the consent of the Lessor shall be
presented to Lessor in written form with detailed plans. All consents given by
Lessor, whether by virtue of Paragraph 7.3(a) or by subsequent specific
consent, shall be deemed conditioned upon: (i) Lessee's acquiring all
applicable permits required by governmental authorities; (ii) the furnishing
of copies of such permits together with a copy of the plans and specifications
for the Alteration or Utility Installation to Lessor prior to commencement of
the work thereon; and (iii) the compliance by Lessee with all conditions of
said permits in a prompt and expeditious manner. Any Alterations or Utility
Installations by Lessee during the term of this Lease shall be done in a good
and workmanlike manner, with good and sufficient materials, and be in
compliance with all Applicable Requirements. Lessee shall promptly upon
completion thereof furnish Lessor with as-built plans and specifications
therefor. Lessor may (but without obligation to do so) condition its consent
to any requested Alteration or Utility Installation that costs $2,500.00 or
more upon Lessee's providing Lessor with a lien and completion bond in an
amount equal to one and one-half times the estimated cost of such Alteration
or Utility Installation.
(c) LIEN PROTECTION. Lessee shall pay when due all claims for
labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for
Lessee at or for use on the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by
any mechanic's or materialmen's lien against the Premises or any interest
therein. Lessee shall give Lessor not less then ten (10) days' notice prior to
the commencement of any work in, on, or about the Premises, and Lessor shall
have the right to post notices of non-responsibility in or on the Premises as
provided by law. If Lessee shall, in good faith, contest the validity of any
such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole expense, defend and
protect itself, Lessor and the Premises against the same and shall pay and
satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the
enforcement thereof against the Lessor or the Premises. If Lessor shall
require, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor,
in an amount equal to the amount of such contested lien claim or demand,
indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same, as-or as otherwise
required by law for the holding of the Premises free from the effect of such
lien or claim. In addition, Lessor may require Lessee to pay Lessor's
attorneys' fees and costs in participating in such action if Lessor shall
decide it is to its best interest to do so.
7.4 OWNERSHIP, REMOVAL, SURRENDER, AND RESTORATION.
(a) OWNERSHIP. Subject to Lessor's right to require their removal
and to cause Lessee to become the owner thereof as hereinafter provided in
this Paragraph 7.4, all Alterations and Utility installations made to the
Premises by Lessee shall be the property of and owned by Lessee, but
considered a part of the Premises. Lessor may, at any time and at its option,
elect in writing to Lessee to be the owner of all or any specified part of the
Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations. Unless otherwise
instructed per Subparagraph 7.4(b) hereof, all Lessee-Owned Alterations and
Utility installations shall, at the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease, become the property of Lessor and remain upon the Premises and be
surrendered with the Premises by Lessee.
(b) REMOVAL. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Lessor may
require that any or all Lessee-Owned Alterations or Utility Installations be
removed by the

expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, notwithstanding that their
installation may have been consented to by Lessor. Lessor may require the
removal at any time of all or any part of any Alterations or Utility
installations made without the required consent of Lessor.
(c) SURRENDER/RESTORATION. Lessee shall surrender the Premises by
the end of the last day of the Lease term or any earlier termination date,
clean and free of debris and in good operating order, condition and state of
repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Ordinary wear and tear shall not
include any damage or deterioration that would have been prevented by good
maintenance practice or by Lessee performing all of its obligations under this
Lease. Except as otherwise agreed or specified herein, the Premises, as
surrendered, shall include the Alterations and Utility Installations. The
obligation of Lessee shall include the repair of any damage occasioned by the
installation, maintenance or removal of Lessee's Trade Fixtures, furnishings,
equipment, and Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, as well as
the removal of any storage tank installed by or for Lessee, and the removal,
replacement, or remediation of any soil, material or ground water contaminated
by Lessee, all as may then be required by Applicable Requirements and/or good
practice. Lessee's Trade Fixtures shall remain the property of Lessee and
shall be removed by Lessee subject to its obligation to repair and restore the
Premises per this Lease.
8. INSURANCE; INDEMNITY.
8.1 PAYMENT OF PREMIUM INCREASES.
(a) As used herein, the TERM "INSURANCE COST INCREASE" is defined
as any increase in the actual cost of the insurance applicable to the Building
and required to be carried by Lessor pursuant to Paragraphs 8.2(b), 8.3(a) and
8.3(b), ("REQUIRED INSURANCE"); over and above the Base Premium, as
hereinafter defined, calculated on an annual basis, "INSURANCE COST INCREASE"
shall include, but not be limited to, requirements of the holder of a mortgage
or deed of trust covering the Premises, increased valuation of the Premises,
and/or a general premium rate increase. The term "INSURANCE COST INCREASE"
shall not, however, include any premium increases resulting from the nature of
the occupancy of any other lessee of the Building. If the Parties insert a
dollar amount in Paragraph 1.9, such amount shall be considered the "BASE
PREMIUM." If a dollar amount has not been inserted in Paragraph 1.9 and if the
Building has been previously occupied during the twelve (12) month period
immediately preceding the Commencement Date, the "BASE PREMIUM" shall be the
annual premium applicable to such twelve (12) month period. If the Building
was not fully occupied during such twelve (12} month period, the "BASE
PREMIUM" shall be the lowest annual premium reasonably obtainable for the
Required Insurance as of the Commencement Date, assuming the most nominal use
possible of the Building. In no event, however, shall Lessee be responsible
for any portion of the premium cost attributable to liability insurance
coverage in excess of $1,000,000 procured under Paragraph 8.2(b).
(b) Lessee shall pay any Insurance Cost increase to Lessor
pursuant to Paragraph 4.2. Premiums for policy periods commencing prior to, or
extending beyond, the term of this Lease shall be prorated to coincide with
the corresponding Commencement Date or Expiration Date.
8.2 LIABILITY INSURANCE.
(a) CARRIED BY LESSEE. Lessee shall obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease a Commercial General Liability policy of
insurance protecting Lessee, Lessor and any Lender(s) whose names have been
provided to Lessee in writing (as additional insureds) against claims for
bodily injury, personal injury and property damage based upon, involving or
arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises
and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be on an occurrence
basis providing single limit coverage in an amount not less than $1,000,000
per occurrence with an "ADDITIONAL INSURED-MANAGERS OR LESSORS OF PREMISES"
endorsement and contain the "AMENDMENT OF THE POLLUTION EXCLUSION" endorsement
for damage caused by heat, smoke or fumes from a hostile fire. The policy
shall not contain any intra-insured exclusions as between insured persons or
organizations, but shall include coverage for liability assumed under this
Lease as an "INSURED CONTRACT" for the performance of Lessee's indemnity
obligations under this Lease. The limits of said insurance required by this
Lease or as carried by Lessee shall not, however, limit the liability of
Lessee nor relieve Lessee of any obligation hereunder, All insurance to be
carried by Lessee shall be primary to and not contributory with any similar
insurance carried by Lessor, whose insurance shall be considered excess
insurance only.
(b) CARRIED BY LESSOR. Lessor shall also maintain liability
insurance described in Paragraph 8.2(a) above, at Lessor's costs, in addition
to and not in lieu of, the insurance required to be maintained by Lessee.
Lessee shall not be named as an additional insured therein.
8.3 PROPERTY INSURANCE - BUILDING, IMPROVEMENTS AND RENTAL VALUE.
(a) BUILDING AND IMPROVEMENTS. Lessor shall obtain and keep in
force during the term of this Lease a policy or policies in the name of
Lessor, with loss payable to Lessor and to any Lender(s), insuring against
loss or damage to the Premises. Such insurance shall be for full replacement
cost, as the same shall exist from time to time, or the amount required by any
Lender(s), but in no event more than the commercially reasonable and available
insurable value thereof if, by reason of the unique nature or age of the
improvements involved, such latter amount is less than full replacement cost.
Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures and
Lessee's personal property shall be insured by Lessee pursuant to Paragraph
8.4. If the coverage is available and commercially appropriate, Lessor's
policy or policies shall insure against all risks of direct physical loss or
damage (except the perils of flood end/or earthquake unless required by a
Lender or included in the Base Premium), including coverage for any additional
costs resulting from debris removal and reasonable amounts of coverage for the
enforcement of any ordinance or law regulating the reconstruction or
replacement of any undamaged sections of the Building required to be
demolished or removed by reason of the enforcement of any building, zoning,
safety or land use laws as the result of a covered loss, but not including
plate glass insurance. Said policy or policies shall also contain an agreed
valuation provision in lieu of any co-insurance clause, waiver of subrogation,
and inflation guard protection causing an increase in the annual property
insurance coverage amount by a factor of not less than the adjusted U.S.
Department of Labor Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the city
nearest to where the Premises are located.
(b) RENTAL VALUE. Lessor shall also obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease a policy or policies in the name of Lessor, with
loss payable to Lessor and any Lender(s), insuring the loss of the full rental
and other charges payable by all lessees of the Building to Lessor for one
year (including all Real Property Taxes, insurance costs, all Common Area
Operating Expenses and any scheduled rental increases). Said insurance may
provide that in the event the Lease is terminated by reason of an insured
loss, the period of indemnity for such coverage shall be extended beyond the
date of the completion of repairs or replacement of the Premises, to provide
for one full year's loss of rental revenues from the date of any such loss.
Said insurance shall contain an agreed valuation provision in lieu of any
co-insurance clause, and the amount of coverage shall be adjusted annually to
reflect the projected rental income, Real Property Taxes, insurance premium
costs and other expenses, if any, otherwise payable, for the next 12-month
period. Common Area Operating Expenses shall include any deductible amount in
the event of such loss,
(c) ADJACENT PREMISES. Lessee shall pay for any increase in the
premiums for the property insurance of the Building and for the Common Areas
or other buildings in the Industrial Center if said increase is caused by
Lessee's acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises.
(d) LESSEE'S IMPROVEMENTS. Since Lessor is the Insuring Party,
Lessor shall not be required to insure Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility
Installations unless the item in question has become the property of Lessor
under the terms of this Lease.
8.4 LESSEE'S PROPERTY INSURANCE. Subject to the requirements of
Paragraph 8.5, Lessee at its cost shall either by separate policy or, at
Lessor's option, by endorsement to a policy already carried, maintain
insurance coverage on all of Lessee's personal property, Trade Fixtures and
Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations in, on, or about the
Premises similar in coverage to that carried by Lessor as the Insuring Party
under Paragraph 8.3(a). Such insurance shall be full replacement cost coverage
with a deductible not to exceed $1,000 per occurrence. The proceeds from any
such insurance shall be used by Lessee for the replacement of personal
property and the restoration of Trade Fixtures and Lessee-Owned Alterations
and Utility Installations. Upon request from Lessor, Lessee shall provide
Lessor with written evidence that such insurance is in force.
8.5 INSURANCE POLICIES. Insurance required hereunder shall be in
companies duly licensed to transact business in the state where the Premises
are located, and maintaining during the policy term a "General Policyholders
Rating" of at least B+, V, or such other rating as may be required by a
Lender, as set forth in the most current issue of "BEST'S INSURANCE GUIDE."
Lessee shall not do or permit to be done anything which shall invalidate the
insurance policies referred to in this Paragraph 8. Lessee shall cause to be
delivered to Lessor, within seven (7) days after the earlier of the Early
Possession Date or the Commencement Date, certified copies of, or certificates
evidencing the existence and amounts of, the insurance required under
Paragraphs 8.2(a) and 8.4. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to
modification except after thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Lessor.
Lessee shall at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of such
policies, furnish Lessor with evidence of renewals or "INSURANCE BINDERS"
evidencing renewal thereof, or Lessor may order such insurance and charge the
cost thereof to Lessee, which amount shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor upon
demand.
8.6 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Without affecting any other rights or
remedies, Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and relieve the other, and
waive their entire right to recover damages (whether in contract or in tort)
against the other, for loss or damage to their property arising out of or
incident to the perils required to be insured against under Paragraph 8. The
effect of such releases and waivers of the right to recover damages shall not
be limited by the amount of insurance carried or required, or by any
deductibles applicable thereto. Lessor and Lessee agree to have their
respective insurance companies issuing property damage insurance waive any
right to subrogation that such companies may have against Lessor or Lessee, as
the case may be, so long as the insurance is not invalidated thereby.
8.7 INDEMNITY. Except for Lessor's negligence, intentional harm,
and/or breach of express warranties, Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend
and hold harmless the Premises, Lessor and its agents, Lessor's master or
ground lessor, partners and Lenders, from and against any and all claims, loss
of rents and/or damages, costs, liens, judgments, penalties, loss of permits,
attorneys' and consultants' fees, expenses and/or liabilities arising out of,
involving, or in connection

with, the occupancy of the Premises by Lessee, the conduct of Lessee's
business, any act, omission or neglect of Lessee, its agents, contractors,
employees or invitees, and out of any Default or Breach by Lessee in the
performance in a timely manner of any obligation on Lessee's part to be
performed under this Lease. The foregoing shall include, but not be limited
to, the defense or pursuit of any claim or any action or proceeding involved
therein, and whether or not (in the case of claims made against Lessor)
litigated and/or reduced to judgment. In case any action or proceeding be
brought against Lessor by reason of any of the foregoing matters, Lessee,
upon notice from Lessor, shall defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in
such defense. Lessor need not have first paid any such claim in order to be
so indemnified.
8.8 EXEMPTION OF LESSOR FROM LIABILITY. Lessor shall not be liable for
injury or damage to the person or goods, wares, merchandise or other property
of Lessee, Lessee's employees, contractors, invites, customers, or any other
person in or about the Premises, whether such damage or injury is caused by
or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the
breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, fire sprinklers,
wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from
any other cause, whether said injury or damage results from conditions
arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Building of which the
Premises are a part, from other sources or places, and regardless of whether
the cause of such damage or injury or the means of repairing the same is
accessible or not. Lessor shall not be liable for any damages arising from
any act or neglect of any other lessee of Lessor nor from the failure by
Lessor to enforce the provisions of any other lease in the Industrial Center.
Notwithstanding Lessor's negligence or breach of this Lease, Lessor shall
under no circumstances be liable for injury to Lessee's business or for any
loss of income or profit therefrom.
9. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.
9.1 DEFINITIONS.
(a) "PREMISES PARTIAL DAMAGE" shall mean damage or destruction to
the Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations,
the repair cost of which damage or destruction is less than fifty percent
(50%) of the then Replacement Cost (as defined in Paragraph 9.1(d)) of the
Premises (excluding Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and
Trade Fixtures) immediately prior to such damage or destruction.
(b) "PREMISES TOTAL DESTRUCTION" shall mean damage or destruction
to the Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility
Installations, the repair cost of which damage or destruction is fifty percent
(50%) or more of the then Replacement Cost of the Premises (excluding
Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures)
immediately prior to such damage or destruction. In addition, damage or
destruction to the Building, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility
Installations and Trade Fixtures of any lessees of the Building, the cost of
which damage or destruction is fifty percent (50%) or more of the then
Replacement Cost (excluding Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations
and Trade Fixtures of any lessees of the Building) of the Building shall, at
the option of Lessor, be deemed to be Premises Total Destruction.
(c) "INSURED LOSS" shall mean damage or destruction to the
Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and
Trade Fixtures, which was caused by an event required to be covered by the
insurance described in Paragraph 8.3(a) irrespective of any deductible amounts
or coverage limits involved.
(d) "REPLACEMENT COST" shall mean the cost to repair or rebuild
the improvements owned by Lessor at the time of the occurrence to their
condition existing immediately prior thereto, including demolition, debris
removal and upgrading required by the operation of applicable building codes,
ordinances or laws, and without deduction for depreciation.
(e) "HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE CONDITION" shall mean the occurrence or
discovery of a condition involving the presence of, or a contamination by, a
Hazardous Substance as defined in Paragraph 6.2(a), in, on, or under the
Premises.
9.2 PREMISES PARTIAL DAMAGE - INSURED LOSS. If Premises Partial
Damage that is an Insured Loss occurs, then Lessor shall, at Lessor's expense,
repair such damage (but not lessee's Trade Fixtures or Lessee-Owned
Alterations and Utility Installations) as soon as reasonably possible and this
Lease shall continue in full force and effect. In the event, however, that
there is a shortage of insurance proceeds and such shortage is due to the fact
that, by reason of the unique nature of the improvements in the Premises, full
replacement cost insurance coverage was not commercially reasonable and
available, Lessor shall have no obligation to pay for the shortage in
insurance proceeds or to fully restore the unique aspects of the Premises
unless Lessee provides Lessor with the funds to cover same, or adequate
assurance thereof, within ten (10) days following receipt of written notice of
such shortage and request therefor. If Lessor receives said funds or adequate
assurance thereof within said ten (10) day period, Lessor shall complete them
as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall remain in full force and
effect. If Lessor does not receive such funds or assurance within said period,
Lessor may nevertheless elect by written notice to Lessee within ten (10) days
thereafter to make such restoration and repair as is commercially reasonable
with Lessor paying any shortage in proceeds, in which case this Lease shall
remain in full force and effect. If Lessor does not receive such funds or
assurance within such ten (10) day period, and if Lessor does not so elect to
restore and repair, then this Lease shall terminate sixty (60) days following
the occurrence of the damage or destruction, unless Lessee elects to do such
work at its sole expense. Unless otherwise agreed, Lessee shall in no event
have any right to reimbursement from Lessor for any funds contributed by
Lessee to repair any such damage or destruction. Premises Partial Damage due
to flood or earthquake shall be subject to Paragraph 9.3 rather than Paragraph
9.2, notwithstanding that there may be some insurance coverage, but the net
proceeds of any such insurance shall be made available for the repairs if made
by either Party.
9.3 PARTIAL DAMAGE - UNINSURED LOSS. If Premises Partial Damage that
is not an Insured Loss occurs, unless caused by a negligent or willful act of
Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at Lessee's expense and
this Lease shall continue in full force and effect), Lessor may, at Lessor's
option, either (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at
Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect, or (ii) give written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days after
receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such damage of Lessor's
desire to terminate this Lease as of the date sixty (60) days following the
date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects to give such notice of
Lessor's intention to terminate this Lease, Lessee shall have the right within
ten (10) days after the receipt of such notice to give written notice to
Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay for the repair of such damage totally at
Lessee's expense and without reimbursement from Lessor. Lessee shall provide
Lessor with the required funds or satisfactory assurance thereof within thirty
(30) days following such commitment from Lessee. In such event this Lease
shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such
repairs as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available.
If Lessee does not give such notice and provide the funds or assurance thereof
within the times specified above, this Lease shall terminate as of the date
specified in Lessor's notice of termination.
9.4 TOTAL DESTRUCTION. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if
Premises Total Destruction occurs (including any destruction required by any
authorized public authority), this Lease shall terminate sixty (60) days
following the date of such Premises Total Destruction, whether or not the
damage or destruction is an Insured Loss or was caused by a negligent or
willful act of Lessee. In the event, however, that the damage or destruction
was caused by Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to recover Lessor's damages
from Lessee except as released and waived in Paragraph 9.7.
9.5 DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. If at any time during the last six (6)
months of the term of this Lease there is damage for which the cost to repair
exceeds one month's Base Rent, whether or not an Insured Loss, Lessor may, at
Lessor's option, terminate this Lease effective sixty (60) days following the
date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Lessee of
Lessor's election to do so within thirty (30) days after the date of
occurrence of such damage. Provided, however, if Lessee at that time has an
exercisable option to extend this Lease or to purchase the Premises, then
Lessee may preserve this Lease by (a) exercising such option, and (b)
providing Lessor with any shortage in insurance proceeds (or adequate
assurance thereof) needed to make the repairs on or before the earlier of (i)
the date which is ten (10) days after Lessee's receipt of Lessor's written
notice purporting to terminate this Lease, or (ii) the day prior to the date
upon which such option expires. If Lessee duly exercises such option during
such period and provides Lessor with funds (or adequate assurance thereof) to
cover any shortage in insurance proceeds, Lessor shall, at Lessor's expense,
repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect. If Lessee fails to exercise such option and
provide such funds or assurance during such period, then this Lease shall
terminate as of the date set forth in the first sentence of this Paragraph 9.5.
9.6 ABATEMENT OF RENT; LESSEE'S REMEDIES.
(a) In the event of (i) Premises Partial Damage or (ii) Hazardous
Substance Condition for which Lessee is not legally responsible, the Base
Rent, Common Area Operating Expenses and other charges, if any, payable by
Lessee hereunder for the period during which such damage or condition, its
repair, remediation or restoration continues, shall be abated in proportion to
the degree to which Lessee's use of the Premises is impaired, but not in
excess of proceeds from insurance required to be carried under Paragraph
8.3(b). Except for abatement of Base Rent, Common Area Operating Expenses and
other charges, if any, as aforesaid, all other obligations of Lessee hereunder
shall be performed by Lessee, and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor
for any damage suffered by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair,
remediation or restoration.
(b) If Lessor shall be obligated to repair or restore the
Premises under the provisions of this Paragraph 9 and shall not commence, in a
substantial and meaningful way, the repair or restoration of the Premises
within sixty (60) days after such obligation shall accrue, Lessee may, at any
time prior to the commencement of such repair or restoration, give written
notice to Lessor and to any Lenders of which Lessee has actual notice of
Lessee's election to terminate this Lease on a date not less than sixty (60)
days following the giving of such notice. If Lessee gives such notice to
Lessor and such Lenders and such repair or restoration is not commenced within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, this Lease shall terminate as
of the date specified in said notice. If Lessor or a Lender commences the
repair or restoration of the Premises within fifteen (15) days after the
receipt of such notice, this Lease shall continue in full

force and effect. "COMMENCE" as used in this Paragraph 9.6 shall mean either
the unconditional authorization of the preparation of the required plans, or
the beginning of the actual work on the Premises, whichever occurs first.
9.7 HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE CONDITIONS. If a Hazardous Substance
Condition occurs, unless Lessee is legally responsible therefor (in which
case Lessee shall make the investigation and remediation thereof required by
Applicable Requirements and this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect, but subject to Lessor's rights under Paragraph 6.2(c) and Paragraph
13), Lessor may at Lessor's option either (i) investigate and remediate such
Hazardous Substance Condition, if required, as soon as reasonably possible at
Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect, or (ii) if the estimated cost to investigate and remediate such
condition exceeds twelve (12) times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000,
whichever is greater, give written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days
after receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such Hazardous
Substance Condition of Lessor's desire to terminate this Lease as of the date
sixty (60) days following the date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects
to give such notice of Lessor's intention to terminate this Lease, Lessee
shall have the right within ten (10) days after the receipt of such notice to
give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay for the excess
costs of (a) investigation and remediation of such Hazardous Substance
Condition to the extent required by Applicable Requirements, over (b) an
amount equal to twelve (12) times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000,
whichever is greater. Lessee shall provide Lessor with the funds required of
Lessee or satisfactory assurance thereof within thirty (30) days following
said commitment by Lessee. In such event this Lease shall continue in full
force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such investigation and
remediation as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are
available. If Lessee does not give such notice and provide the required funds
or assurance thereof within the time period specified above, this Lease shall
terminate as of the date specified in Lessor's notice of termination.
9.8 TERMINATION - ADVANCE PAYMENTS. Upon termination of this Lease
pursuant to this Paragraph 9, Lessor shall return to Lessee any advance
payment made by Lessee to Lessor and so much of Lessee's Security Deposit as
has not been, or is not then required to be, used by Lessor under the terms
of this Lease.
9.9 WAIVER OF STATUTES. Lessor and Lessee agree that the terms of
this Lease shall govern the effect of any damage to or destruction of the
Premises and the Building with respect to the termination of this Lease and
hereby waive the provisions of any present or future statute to the extent it
is inconsistent herewith,
10. REAL PROPERTY TAXES.
10.1 PAYMENT OF TAXES. Lessor shall pay the Real Property Taxes, as
defined in Paragraph 10.2(a), applicable to the Industrial Center, and except
as otherwise provided in Paragraph 10.3, any increases in such amounts over
the base Real Property Taxes shall be included in the calculation of Common
Area Operating Expenses in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 4.2.
10.2 REAL PROPERTY TAX DEFINITIONS.
(a) As used herein, the term "REAL PROPERTY TAXES" shall include
any form of real estate tax or assessment, general, special, ordinary or
extraordinary, and any license fee, commercial rental tax, improvement bond
or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income or estate
taxes) imposed upon the Industrial Center by any authority having the direct
or indirect power to tax, including any city, state or federal government, or
any school, agricultural, sanitary, fire, street, drainage, or other
improvement district thereof, levied against any legal or equitable interest
of Lessor in the Industrial Center or any portion thereof, Lessor's right to
rent or other income therefrom, and/or Lessor's business of leasing the
Premises. The term "REAL PROPERTY TAXES" shall also include any tax, fee,
levy, assessment or charge, or any increase therein, imposed by reason of
events occurring, or changes in Applicable Law taking effect, during the term
of this Lease, including but not limited to a change in the ownership of the
Industrial Center or in the improvements thereon, the execution of this
Lease, or any modification, amendment or transfer thereof, and whether or not
contemplated by the Parties.
(b) As used herein, the term "BASE REAL PROPERTY TAXES" shall be
the amount of Real Property Taxes which are assessed against the Premises,
Building or Common Areas in the calendar year during which the Lease is
executed. In calculating Real Property Taxes for any calendar year, the Real
Property Taxes for any real estate tax year shall be included in the
calculation of Real Property Taxes for such calendar year based upon the
number of days which such calendar year and tax year have in common.
10.3 ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS. Common Area Operating Expenses shall
not include Real Property Taxes specified in the tax assessor's records and
work sheets as being caused by additional improvements placed upon the
Industrial Center by other lessees or by Lessor for the exclusive enjoyment
of such other lessees. Notwithstanding Paragraph 10.1 hereof, Lessee shall,
however, pay to Lessor at the time Common Area Operating Expenses are payable
under Paragraph 4.2, the entirety of any increase in Real Property Taxes if
assessed solely by reason of Alterations, Trade Fixtures or Utility
Installations placed upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's request.
10.4 JOINT ASSESSMENT. If the Building is not separately assessed,
Real Property Taxes allocated to the Building shall be an equitable
proportion of the Real Property Taxes for all of the land and improvements
included within the tax parcel assessed, such proportion to be determined by
Lessor from the respective valuations assigned in the assessor's work sheets
or such other information as may be reasonably available. Lessor's reasonable
determination thereof, in good faith, shall be conclusive.
10.5 LESSEE'S PROPERTY TAXES. Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency
all taxes assessed against and levied upon Lessee-Owned Alterations and
Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all
personal property of Lessee contained in the Premises or stored within the
Industrial Center. When possible, Lessee shall cause its Lessee-Owned
Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment
and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the
real property of Lessor. If any of Lessee's said property shall be assessed
with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes attributable
to Lessee's property within ten (10) days after receipt of a written
statement setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee's property.
11. UTILITIES. Lessee shall pay directly for all utilities and services
supplied to the Premises, including, but not limited to, electricity,
telephone, security, gas and cleaning of the Premises, together with any
taxes thereon. If any such utilities or services are not separately metered
to the Premises or separately billed to the Premises, Lessee shall pay to
Lessor a reasonable proportion to be determined by Lessor of all such charges
jointly metered or billed with other premises in the Building, in the manner
and within the time periods set forth in Paragraph 4.2(d).
12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
12.1 LESSOR'S CONSENT REQUIRED.
(a) Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign,
transfer, mortgage or otherwise transfer or encumber (collectively, "assign")
or sublet all or any part of Lessee's interest in this Lease or in the
Premises without Lessor's prior written consent given under and subject to
the terms of Paragraph 36.
(b) A change in the control of Lessee shall constitute an
assignment requiring Lessor's consent. The transfer, on a cumulative basis,
of fifty (50) percent or more of the voting control of Lessee shall
constitute a change in control for this purpose.
(c) The involvement of Lessee or its assets in any transaction,
or series of transactions (by way of merger, sale, acquisition, financing,
refinancing, transfer, leveraged buy-out or otherwise), whether or not a
formal assignment or hypothecation of this Lease or Lessee's assets occurs,
which results or will result in a reduction of the Net Worth of Lessee, as
hereinafter defined, by an amount equal to or greater than fifty (50) percent
of such Net Worth of Lessee as it was represented to Lessor of the time of
full execution and delivery of this Lease or at the time of the most recent
assignment to which Lessor has consented, or as it exists immediately prior
to said transaction or transactions constituting such reduction, at whichever
time said Net Worth of Lessee was or is greater, shall be considered an
assignment of this Lease by Lessee to which Lessor may reasonably withhold
its consent. "NET WORTH OF LESSEE" for purposes of this lease shall be the
net worth of Lessee (excluding any Guarantors) established under generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied.
(d) An assignment or subletting of Lessee's interest in this
Lease without Lessor's specific prior written consent shall, at Lessor's
option, be a Default curable after notice per Paragraph 13.1, or a
non-curable Breach without the necessity of any notice and grace period. If
Lessor elects to treat such unconsented to assignment or subletting as a
non-curable Breach, Lessor shall have the right to either: (i) terminate this
Lease, or (ii) upon thirty (30) days' written notice ("LESSOR'S NOTICE"),
increase the monthly Base Rent for the Premises to the greater of the then
fair market rental value of the Premises, as reasonably determined by Lessor,
or one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Base Rent then in effect. Pending
determination of the new fair market rental value, if disputed by Lessee,
Lessee shall pay the amount set forth in Lessor's Notice, with any
overpayment credited against the next installment(s) of Base Rent coming due,
and any underpayment for the period retroactively to the effective date of
the adjustment being due and payable immediately upon the determination
thereof. Further, in the event of such Breach and rental adjustment, (i) the
purchase price of any option to purchase the Premises held by Lessee shall be
subject to similar adjustment to the then fair market value as reasonably
determined by Lessor (without the Lease being considered an encumbrance or
any deduction for depreciation or obsolescence, and considering the Premises
at its highest and best use and in good condition) or one hundred ten percent
(110%) of the price previously in effect, (ii) any index-oriented rental or
price adjustment formulas contained in this Lease shall be adjusted to
require that the base index be determined with reference to the index
applicable to the time of such adjustment, and (iii) any fixed rental
adjustments scheduled during the remainder of the Lease term shall be
increased in the same ratio as the new rental bears to the Base Rent in
effect immediately prior the adjustment specified in Lessor's Notice.
(e) Lessee's remedy for any breach of this Paragraph 12.1 by
Lessor shall be limited to compensatory damages and/or injunctive relief.

PAGE 7 OF 13
(a) Regardless of Lessor's consent, any assignment or subletting
shall not (i) be effective without the express written assumption by such
assignee or sublessee of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease, (ii)
release Lessee of any obligations hereunder, nor (iii) alter the primary
liability of Lessee for the payment of Base Rent and other sums due Lessor
hereunder or for the performance of any other obligations to be performed by
Lessee under this Lease.
(b) Lessor may accept any rent or performance of Lessee's
obligations from any person other than Lessee pending approval or disapproval
of an assignment. Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such
assignment nor the acceptance of any rent for performance shall constitute a
waiver or estoppel of Lessor's right to exercise its remedies for the Default
or Breach by Lessee of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this
Lease.
(c) The consent of Lessor to any assignment or subletting shall
not constitute a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting by Lessee
or to any subsequent or successive assignment or subletting by the assignee
or sublessee, However, Lessor may consent to subsequent sublettings and
assignments of the sublease or any amendments or modifications thereto
without notifying Lessee or anyone else liable under this Lease or the
sublease and without obtaining their consent, and such action shall not
relieve such persons from liability under this Lease or the sublease.
(d) In the event of any Default or Breach of Lessee's obligation
under this Lease, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee, any Guarantors
or anyone else responsible for the performance of the Lessee's obligations
under this Lease, including any sublessee, without first exhausting Lessor's
remedies against any other person or entity responsible therefor to Lessor,
or any security held by Lessor.
(e) Each request for consent to an assignment or subletting
shall be in writing, accompanied by information relevant to Lessor's
determination as to the financial and operational responsibility and
appropriateness of the proposed assignee or sublessee, including, but not
limited to, the intended use and/or required modification of the Premises, if
any, together with a non-refundable deposit of $500.00, as reasonable
consideration for Lessor's considering and processing the request for
consent. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with such other or additional
information and/or documentation as may be reasonably requested by Lessor.
(f) Any assignee of, or sublessee under, this Lease shall, by
reason of accepting such assignment or entering into such sublease, be
deemed, for the benefit of Lessor, to have assumed and agreed to conform and
comply with each and every term, covenant, condition and obligation herein to
be observed or performed by Lessee during the term of said assignment or
sublease, other than such obligations as are contrary to or inconsistent with
provisions of an assignment or sublease to which Lessor has specifically
consented in writing.
12.3 ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO SUBLETTING. The
following terms and conditions shall apply to any subletting by Lessee of all
or any part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases
under this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein:
(a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of
Lessee's interest in all rentals and income arising from any sublease of all
or a portion of the Premises heretofore or hereafter made by Lessee, and
Lessor may collect such rent and income and apply same toward Lessee's
obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that until a Breach (as
defined in Paragraph 13.1) shall occur in the performance of Lessee's
obligations under this Lease, Lessee may, except as otherwise provided in
this Lease, receive, collect and enjoy the rents accruing under such
sublease. Lessor shall not, by reason of the foregoing provision or any other
assignment of such sublease to Lessor, nor by reason of the collection of the
rents from a sublessee, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of
Lessee to perform and comply with any of Lessee's obligations to such
sublessee under such Sublease. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and
directs any such sublessee, upon receipt of a written notice from Lessor
stating that a Breach exists in the performance of Lessee's obligations under
this Lease, to pay to Lessor the rents and other charges due and to become
due under the sublease. Sublessee shall rely upon any such statement and
request from Lessor and shall pay such rents and other charges to Lessor
without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether such Breach exists
and notwithstanding any notice from or claim from Lessee to the contrary.
Lessee shall have no right or claim against such sublessee, or, until the
Breach has been cured, against Lessor, for any such rents and other charges
so paid by said sublessee to Lessor.
(b) In the event of a Breach by Lessee in the performance of its
obligations under this Lease, Lessor, at its option and without any
obligation to do so, may require any sublessee to attorn to Lessor, in which
event Lessor shall undertake the obligations of the sublessor under such
sublease from the time of the exercise of said option to the expiration of
such sublease; provided, however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid
rents or security deposit paid by such sublessee to such sublessor or for any
other prior defaults or breaches of such sublessor under such sublease.
(c) Any matter or thing requiring the consent of the sublessor
under a sublease shall also require the consent of Lessor herein.
(d) No sublessee under a sublease approved by Lessor shall
further assign or sublet all or any part of the Premises without Lessor's
prior written consent.
(e) Lessor shall deliver a copy of any notice of Default or
Breach by Lessee to the sublessee, who shall have the right to cure the
Default of Lessee within the grace period, if any, specified in such notice.
The sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from and against
Lessee for any such Defaults cured by the sublessee.
13. DEFAULT; BREACH; REMEDIES.
13.1 DEFAULT; BREACH. Lessor and Lessee agree that if an attorney is
consulted by Lessor in connection with a Lessee Default or Breach (as
hereinafter defined), $350.00 is a reasonable minimum sum per such occurrence
for legal services and costs in the preparation and service of a notice of
Default, and that Lessor may include the cost of such services and costs in
said notice as rent due and payable to cure said default. A "DEFAULT" by
Lessee is defined as a failure by Lessee to observe, comply with or perform
any of the terms, covenants, conditions or rules applicable to Lessee under
this Lease. A "BREACH" by Lessee is defined as the occurrence of any one or
more of the following Defaults, and, where a grace period for cure after
notice is specified herein, the failure by Lessee to cure such Default prior
to the expiration of the applicable grace period, and shall entitle Lessor to
pursue the remedies set forth in Paragraphs 13.2 and/or 13.3:
(a) The vacating of the Premises without the intention to
reoccupy same, or the abandonment of the Premises.
(b) Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, the
failure by Lessee to make any payment of Base Rent, Lessee's Share of Common
Area Operating Expenses, or any other monetary payment required to be made by
Lessee hereunder as and when due, the failure by Lessee to provide Lessor
with reasonable evidence of insurance or surety bond required under this
Lease, or the failure of Lessee to fulfill any obligation under this Lease
which endangers or threatens life or property, where such failure continues
for a period of ten (10) days following written notice thereof by or on
behalf of Lessor to Lessee.
(c) Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, the
failure by Lessee to provide Lessor with reasonable written evidence (in duly
executed original form, if applicable) of (i) compliance with Applicable
Requirements per Paragraph 6.3, (ii) the inspection, maintenance and service
contracts required under Paragraph 7.1(b), (iii) the rescission of an
unauthorized assignment or subletting per Paragraph 12.1, (iv) a Tenancy
Statement per Paragraphs 16 or 37, (v) the subordination or non-subordination
of this Lease per Paragraph 30, (vi) the guaranty of the performance of
Lessee's obligations under this Lease if required under Paragraphs 1.11 and
37, (iii) the execution of any document requested under Paragraph 42
(easements), or (viii) any other documentation or information which Lessor
may reasonably require of Lessee under the terms of this Lease, where any
such failure continues for a period of ten (10) days following written notice
by or on behalf of Lessor to Lessee.
(d) A Default by Lessee as to the terms, covenants, conditions
or provisions of this Lease, or of the rules adopted under Paragraph 40
hereof that are to be observed, complied with or performed by Lessee, other
than those described in Subparagraphs 13.1(a), (b) or (c), above, where such
Default continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof by or on behalf of Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that if the
nature of Lessee's Default is such that more than thirty (30) days are
reasonably required for its cure, then it shall not be deemed to be a Breach
of this Lease by Lessee if Lessee commences such cure within said thirty (30)
day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
(e) The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the
making by Lessee of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of
creditors; (ii) Lessee's becoming a "debtor" as defined in 11 U.S. Code
Section 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days);
(iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of
substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's
interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within
thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure
of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of
Lessee's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within
thirty (30) days; provided, however, in the event that any provision of this
Subparagraph 13.1(e) is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall
be of no force or effect, and shall not affect the validity of the remaining
provisions.
(f) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement of
Lessee or of any Guarantor, given to Lessor by Lessee or any Guarantor, was
materially

false.
(g) If the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease
is guaranteed: (i) the death of a Guarantor, (ii) the termination of a
Guarantor's liability with respect to this Lease other than in accordance
with the terms of such guaranty, (iii) a Guarantor's becoming insolvent or
the subject of a bankruptcy filing, (iv) a Guarantor's refusal to honor the
guaranty, or (v) a Guarantor's breach of its guaranty obligation on an
anticipatory breach basis, and Lessee's failure, within sixty (60) days
following written notice by or on behalf of Lessor to Lessee of any such
event, to provide Lessor with written alternative assurances of security,
which, when coupled with the then existing resources of Lessee, equals or
exceeds the combined financial resources of Lessee and the Guarantors that
existed at the time of execution of this Lease.
13.2 REMEDIES. If Lessee fails to perform any affirmative duty or
obligation of Lessee under this Lease, within ten (10) days after written
notice to Lessee (or in case of an emergency, without notice), Lessor may, at
its option (but without obligation to do so), perform such duty or obligation
on Lessee's behalf, including, but not limited to, the obtaining of
reasonably required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses,
permits or approvals. The costs and expenses of any such performance by
Lessor shall be due and payable by Lessee to Lessor upon invoice therefor. If
any check given to Lessor by Lessee shall not be honored by the bank upon
which it is drawn, Lessor, at its own option, may require all future payments
to be made under this Lease by Lessee to be made only by cashier's check. In
the event of a Breach of this Lease by Lessee (as defined in paragraph 13.1),
with or without further notice or demand, and without limiting Lessor in the
exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such
Breach, Lessor may:
(a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by
any lawful means, in which case this Lease and the term hereof shall
terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises
to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee: (i)
the worth at the time of the award of the unpaid rent which had been earned
at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount
by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until
the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee
proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of
award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term
after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the
Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount
necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by
the Lessee's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in
the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including,
but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises,
expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the
Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, and that portion of any leasing
commission paid by Lessor in connection with this Lease applicable to the
unexpired term of this Lease. The worth at the time of award of the amount
referred to in provision (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be
computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco or the Federal Reserve Bank District in which
the Premises are located at the time of award plus one percent (1%). Efforts
by Lessor to mitigate damages caused by Lessee's Default or Breach of this
Lease shall not waive Lessor's right to recover damages under this Paragraph
13.2. If termination of this Lease is obtained through the provisional remedy
of unlawful detainer, Lessor shall have the right to recover in such
proceeding the unpaid rent and damages as are recoverable therein, or Lessor
may reserve the right to recover all or any part thereof in a separate suit
for such rent and/or damages. If a notice and grace period required under
Subparagraph 13.1(b), (c) or (d) was not previously given, a notice to pay
rent or quit, or to perform or quit, as the case may be, given to Lessee
under any statute authorizing the forfeiture of leases for unlawful detainer
shall also constitute the applicable notice for grace period purposes
required by Subparagraph 13.1(b), (c) or (d). In such case, the applicable
grace period under the unlawful detainer statute shall run concurrently after
the one such statutory notice, and the failure of Lessee to cure the Default
within the greater of the two (2) such grace periods shall constitute both an
unlawful detainer and a Breach of this Lease entitling Lessor to the remedies
provided for in this Lease and/or by said statute.
(b) Continue the Lease and Lessee's right to possession in
effect (in California under California Civil Code Section 1951.4) after
Lessee's Breach and recover the rent as it becomes due, provided Lessee has
the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations. Lessor
and Lessee agree that the limitations on assignment and subletting in this
Lease are reasonable. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet
the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Lessor's
interest under this Lease, shall not constitute a termination of the Lessee's
right to possession.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor
under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are
located.
(d) The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the
termination of Lessee's right to possession shall not relieve Lessee from
liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters
occurring or accruing during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee's
occupancy of the Premises.
13.3 INDUCEMENT RECAPTURE IN EVENT OF BREACH. Any agreement by Lessor
for free or abated rent or other charges applicable to the Premises, or for
the giving or paying by Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus,
inducement or consideration for Lessee's entering into this Lease, all of
which concessions are hereinafter referred to as "INDUCEMENT PROVISIONS"
shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee's full and faithful performance of
all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed or
observed by Lessee during the term hereof as the same may be extended. Upon
the occurrence of a Breach (as defined in Paragraph 13.1) of this Lease by
Lessee, any such Inducement Provision shall automatically be deemed deleted
from this Lease and of no further force or effect, and any rent, other
charge, bonus, inducement or consideration theretofore abated, given or paid
by Lessor under such an Inducement Provision shall be immediately due and
payable by Lessee to Lessor, and recoverable by Lessor, as additional rent
due under this Lease, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said Breach by
Lessee. The acceptance by Lessor of rent or the cure of the Breach which
initiated the operation of this Paragraph 13.3 shall not be deemed a waiver
by Lessor of the provisions of this Paragraph 13.3 unless specifically so
stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such acceptance.
13.4 LATE CHARGES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by
Lessee to Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to
incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be
extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to,
processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon
Lessor by the terms of any ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust covering
the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or other sum due from
Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor's designee within ten (10)
days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice
to Lessee, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to six percent (6%)
of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge
represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by
reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor
shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with
respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the
other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge
is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for three (3) consecutive
installments of Base Rent, then notwithstanding Paragraph 4.1 or any other
provision of this Lease to the contrary, Base Rent shall, at Lessor's option,
become due and payable quarterly in advance.
13.5 BREACH BY LESSOR. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this
Lease unless Lessor fails within a reasonable time to perform an obligation
required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph 13.5, a
reasonable time shall in no event be less than thirty (30) days after receipt
by Lessor, and by any Lender(s) whose name and address shall have been
furnished to Lessee in writing for such purpose, of written notice specifying
wherein such obligation of Lessor has not been performed; provided, however,
that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is such that more than thirty (30)
days after such notice are reasonably required for its performance, then
Lessor shall not be in breach of this Lease if performance is commenced
within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursued to
completion.
14. CONDEMNATION. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the
power of eminent domain or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power
(all of which are herein called "condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as
to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or
possession, whichever first occurs. If more than ten percent (10%) of the
floor area of the Premises, or more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the
portion of the Common Areas designated for Lessee's parking, is taken by
condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be exercised in writing
within ten (10) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of
such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days after the
condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Lease as of
the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does not
terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain
in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except
that the Base Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion as the rentable
floor area of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable floor area of the
Premises. No reduction of Base Rent shall occur if the condemnation does not
apply to any portion of the Premises. Any award for the taking of all or any
part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain or any payment made
under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property of Lessor,
whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution of value of
the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages; provided,
however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any compensation, separately awarded
to Lessee for Lessee's relocation expenses and/or loss of Lessee's Trade
Fixtures. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such
condemnation, Lessor shall to the extent of its net severance damages
received, over and above Lessee's share of the legal and other expenses
incurred by Lessor in the condemnation matter, repair any damage to the
Premises caused by such condemnation authority. Lessee shall be responsible
for the payment of any amount in excess of such net severance damages required
to complete such repair.
15. BROKERS' FEES
15.1 PROCURING CAUSE. The Broker(s) named in Paragraph 1.10 is/are
the procuring cause of this Lease.
15.2 ADDITIONAL TERMS. Unless Lessor and Broker(s) have otherwise
agreed in writing, Lessor agrees that: (a) if Lessee exercises any Option (as
defined

in Paragraph 39.1) granted under this Lease or any Option subsequently
granted, or (b) if Lessee acquires any rights to the Premises or other
premises in which Lessor has an interest, or (c) if Lessee remains in
possession of the Premises with the consent of Lessor after the expiration of
the term of this Lease after having failed to exercise an Option, or (d) if
said Brokers are the procuring cause of any other lease or sale entered into
between the Parties pertaining to the Premises and/or any adjacent property
in which Lessor has an interest, or (e) if Base Rent is increased,
whether by agreement or operation of an escalation clause herein, then as to
any of said transactions, Lessor shall pay said Broker(s) a fee in accordance
with the schedule of said Broker(s) in effect at the time of the execution of
this Lease.
15.3 ASSUMPTION OF OBLIGATIONS. Any buyer or transferee of Lessor's
interest in this Lease, whether such transfer is by agreement or by operation
of law, shall be deemed to have assumed Lessor's obligation under this
Paragraph 15. Each Broker shall be an intended third party beneficiary of the
provisions of Paragraph 1.10 and of this Paragraph 15 to the extent of its
interest in any commission arising from this Lease and may enforce that right
directly against Lessor and its successors.
15.4 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Lessee and Lessor each represent
and warrant to the other that it has had no dealings with any person, firm,
broker or finder other than as named in Paragraph 1.10(a) in connection with
the negotiation of this lease and/or the consummation of the transaction
contemplated hereby, and that no broker or other person, firm or entity other
than said named Broker(s) is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in
connection with said transaction. Lessee and Lessor do each hereby agree to
indemnify, protect, defend and hold the other harmless from and against
liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed by any such
unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or
actions of the Indemnifying Party, including any costs, expenses, and/or
attorneys' fees reasonably incurred with respect thereto.
16. TENANCY AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
16.1 TENANCY STATEMENT. Each Party (as "RESPONDING PARTY") shall
within ten (10) days after written notice from the other Party (the
"REQUESTING PARTY") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Requesting Party
a statement in writing in a form similar to the then most current "TENANCY
STATEMENT" form published by the American Industrial Real Estate Association,
plus such additional information, confirmation and/or statements as may be
reasonably requested by the Requesting Party.
16.2 FINANCIAL STATEMENT. If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or
sell the Premises or the Building, or any part thereof, Lessee and all
Guarantors shall deliver to any potential lender or purchaser designated by
Lessor such financial statements of Lessee and such Guarantors as may be
reasonably required by such lender or purchaser, including, but not limited
to, Lessee's financial statements for the past three (3) years. All such
financial statements shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser
in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.
17. LESSOR'S LIABILITY. The term "LESSOR" as used herein shall mean the
owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title to the Premises. In
the event of a transfer of Lessor's title or interest in the Premises or in
this Lease, Lessor shall deliver to the transferee or assignee (in cash or by
credit) any unused Security Deposit held by Lessor at the time of such
transfer or assignment. Except as provided in Paragraph 15.3, upon such
transfer or assignment and delivery of the Security Deposit, as aforesaid,
the prior Lessor shall be relieved of all liability with respect to the
obligations and/or covenants under this Lease thereafter to be performed by
the Lessor. Subject to the foregoing, the obligations and/or covenants in
this Lease to be performed by the Lessor shall be binding only upon the
Lessor as hereinabove defined.
18. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease, as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the
validity of any other provision hereof.
19. INTEREST ON PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS. Any monetary payment due Lessor
hereunder, other than late charges, not received by Lessor within ten (10)
days following the date on which it was due, shall bear interest from the
date due at the prime rate charged by the largest state chartered bank in the
state in which the Premises are located plus four percent (4%) per annum, but
not exceeding the maximum rate allowed by law, in addition to the potential
late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.4.
20. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance
of all obligations to be performed or observed by the Parties under this
Lease.
21. RENT DEFINED. All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the
terms of this Lease are deemed to be rent.
22. NO PRIOR OR OTHER AGREEMENTS; BROKER DISCLAIMER. This Lease contains all
agreements between the Parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein,
and no other prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding shall be
effective. Lessor and Lessee each represents and warrants to the Brokers that
it has made, and is relying solely upon, its own investigation as to the
nature, quality, character and financial responsibility of the other Party to
this Lease and as to the nature, quality and character of the Premises.
Brokers have no responsibility with respect thereto or with respect to any
default or breach hereof by either Party. Each Broker shall be an intended
third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Paragraph 22.
23. NOTICES.
23.1 NOTICE REQUIREMENTS. All notices required or permitted by this
Lease shall be in writing and may be delivered in person (by hand or by
messenger or courier service) or may be sent by regular, certified or
registered mail or U.S. Postal Service Express Mail, with postage prepaid, or
by facsimile transmission during normal business hours, and shall be deemed
sufficiently given if served in a manner specified in this Paragraph 23. The
addresses noted adjacent to a Party's signature on this Lease shall be that
Party's address for delivery or mailing of notice purposes. Either Party may
by written notice to the other specify a different address for notice
purposes, except that upon Lessee's taking possession of the Premises, the
Premises shall constitute Lessee's address for the purpose of mailing or
delivering notices to Lessee. A copy of all notices required or permitted to
be given to Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party
or parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter
designate by written notice to Lessee.
23.2 DATE OF NOTICE. Any notice sent by registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, shall be deemed given on the date of delivery shown
on the receipt card, or if no delivery date is shown, the postmark thereon.
If sent by regular mail, the notice shall be deemed given forty-eight (48)
hours after the same is addressed as required herein and mailed with postage
prepaid. Notices delivered by United States Express Mail or overnight courier
that guarantees next day delivery shall be deemed given twenty-four (24)
hours after delivery of the same to the United States Postal Service or
courier. If any notice is transmitted by facsimile transmission or similar
means, the same shall be deemed served or delivered upon telephone or
facsimile confirmation of receipt of the transmission thereof, provided a
copy is also delivered via delivery or mail. If notice is received on a
Saturday or a Sunday or a legal holiday, it shall be deemed received on the
next business day.
24. WAIVERS. No waiver by Lessor of the Default or Breach of any term,
covenant or condition hereof by Lessee, shall be deemed a waiver of any other
term, covenant or condition hereof, or of any subsequent Default or Breach by
Lessee of the same or any other term, covenant or condition hereof. Lessor's
consent to, or approval of, any such act shall not be deemed to render
unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any
subsequent or similar act by Lessee, or be construed as the basis of an
estoppel to enforce the provision or provisions of this Lease requiring such
consent. Regardless of Lessor's knowledge of a Default or Breach at the time
of accepting rent, the acceptance of rent by Lessor shall not be a waiver of
any Default or Breach by Lessee of any provision hereof. Any payment given
Lessor by Lessee may be accepted by Lessor on account of monies or damages
due Lessor, notwithstanding any qualifying statements or conditions made by
Lessee in connection therewith, which such statements and/or conditions shall
be of no force or effect whatsoever unless specifically agreed to in writing
by Lessor at or before the time of deposit of such payment.
25. RECORDING. Either Lessor or Lessee shall, upon request of the other,
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a short form memorandum of this
Lease for recording purposes. The Party requesting recordation shall be
responsible for payment of any fees or taxes applicable thereto.
26. NO RIGHT TO HOLDOVER. Lessee has no right to retain possession of the
Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease. In the event that Lessee holds over in violation of this
Paragraph 26 then the Base Rent payable from and after the time of the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease shall be increased to two
hundred percent (200%) of the Base Rent applicable during the month
immediately preceding such expiration or earlier termination. Nothing
contained herein shall be construed as a consent by Lessor to any holding
over by Lessee.

27. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies
at law or in equity.
28. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. All provisions of this Lease to be observed or
performed by Lessee are both covenants and conditions.
29. BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW. This Lease shall be binding upon the
Parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns and be
governed by the laws of the state in which the Premises are located. Any
litigation between the Parties hereto concerning this Lease shall be
initiated in the county in which the Premises are located.
30. SUBORDINATION; ATTORNMENT; NON-DISTURBANCE.
30.1 SUBORDINATION. This lease and any Option granted hereby shall be
subject and subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or
other hypothecation or security device (collectively, "SECURITY DEVICE"), now
or hereafter placed by Lessor upon the real property of which the Premises
are a part, to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to all
renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.
Lessee agrees that the Lenders holding any such Security Device shall have no
duty, liability or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Lessor
under this Lease, but that in the event of Lessor's default with respect to
any such obligation, Lessee will give any Lender whose name and address have
been furnished Lessee in writing for such purpose notice of Lessor's default
pursuant to Paragraph 13.5. If any Lender shall elect to have this Lease
and/or any Option granted hereby superior to the lien of its Security Device
and shall give written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease and such Options
shall be deemed prior to such Security Device, notwithstanding the relative
dates of the documentation or recordation thereof.
30.2 ATTORNMENT. Subject to the non-disturbance provisions of
Paragraph 30.3, Lessee agrees to attorn to a Lender or any other party who
acquires ownership of the Premises by reason of a foreclosure of a Security
Device, and that in the event of such foreclosure, such new owner shall not:
(i) be liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor or with respect to
events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership, (ii) be subject to any
offsets or defenses which Lessee might have against any prior lessor, or
(iii) be bound by prepayment of more than one (1) month's rent.
30.3 NON-DISTURBANCE. With respect to Security Devices entered into
by Lessor after the execution of this Lease, Lessee's subordination of this
Lease shall be subject to receiving assurance (a "non-disturbance agreement")
from the Lender that Lessee's possession and this Lease, including any
options to extend the term hereof, will not be disturbed so long as Lessee is
not in Breach hereof and attorns to the record owner of the Premises.
30.4 SELF-EXECUTING. The agreements contained in this Paragraph 30
shall be effective without the execution of any further documents; provided,
however, that upon written request from Lessor or a Lender in connection with
a sale, financing or refinancing of Premises, Lessee and Lessor shall execute
such further writings as may be reasonably required to separately document
any such subordination or non-subordination, attornment and/or
non-disturbance agreement as is provided for herein.
31. ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any Party or Broker brings an action or proceeding
to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the Prevailing Party
(as hereafter defined) in any such proceeding, action, or appeal thereon,
shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees. Such fees may be awarded in
the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not such action or
proceeding is pursued to decision or judgment. The term "PREVAILING PARTY"
shall include, without limitation, a Party or Broker who substantially
obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether by
compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other Party or
Broker of its claim or defense. The attorneys' fee award shall not be
computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to
fully reimburse all attorneys' fees reasonably incurred. Lessor shall be
entitled to attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in preparation and
service of notices of Default and consultations in connection therewith,
whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with
such Default or resulting Breach. Broker(s) shall be intended third party
beneficiaries of this Paragraph 31.
32. LESSOR'S ACCESS; SHOWING PREMISES; REPAIRS. Lessor and Lessor's agents
shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, in the case of an
emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times with 24 hours prior notice, for
the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or
lessees, and making such alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to
the Premises or to the Building, as Lessor may reasonably deem necessary.
Lessor may at any time place on or about the Premises or Building any
ordinary "For Sale" signs and Lessor may at any time during the last one
hundred eighty (180) days of the term hereof place on or about the Premises
any ordinary "For Lease" signs. All such activities of Lessor shall be
without abatement of rent or liability to Lessee.
33. AUCTIONS. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises without first
having obtained Lessor's prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to exercise any
standard of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such consent.
34. SIGNS. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the exterior of the Premises
or the Building, except that Lessee may, with Lessor's prior written consent,
install (but not on the roof) such signs as are reasonably required to
advertise Lessee's own business so long as such signs are in a location
designated by Lessor and comply with Applicable Requirements and the signage
criteria established for the Industrial Center by Lessor. The installation of
any sign on the Premises by or for Lessee shall be subject to the provisions
of Paragraph 7 (Maintenance, Repairs, Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures
and Alterations). Unless otherwise expressly agreed herein, Lessor reserves
all rights to the use of the roof of the Building, and the right to install
advertising signs on the Building, including the roof, which do not
unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Lessee's business; Lessor shall be
entitled to all revenues from such advertising signs.
35. TERMINATION; MERGER. Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing by
Lessor, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, the mutual
termination or cancellation hereof, or a termination hereof by Lessor for
Breach by Lessee, shall automatically terminate any sublease or lesser estate
in the Premises; provided, however, Lessor shall, in the event of any such
surrender, termination or cancellation, have the option to continue any one
or all of any existing subtenancies. Lessor's failure within ten (10) days
following any such event to make a written election to the contrary by
written notice to the holder of any such lesser interest, shall constitute
Lessor's election to have such event constitute the termination of such
interest.
36. CONSENTS.
(a) Except for Paragraph 33 hereof (Auctions) or as otherwise
provided herein, wherever in this Lease the consent of a Party is required to
an act by or for the other Party, such consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. Lessor's actual reasonable costs and expenses
(including, but not limited to, architects', attorneys', engineers' and other
consultants' fees) incurred in the consideration of, or response to, a
request by Lessee for any Lessor consent pertaining to this Lease or the
Premises, including, but not limited to, consents to an assignment a
subletting or the presence or use of a Hazardous Substance, shall be paid by
Lessee to Lessor upon receipt of an invoice and supporting documentation
therefor. In addition to the deposit described in Paragraph 12.2(e), Lessor
may, as a condition to considering any such request by Lessee, require that
Lessee deposit with Lessor an amount of money (in addition to the Security
Deposit held under Paragraph 5) reasonably calculated by Lessor to represent
the cost Lessor will incur in considering and responding to Lessee's request.
Any unused portion of said deposit shall be refunded to Lessee without
interest. Lessor's consent to any act, assignment of this Lease or subletting
of the Premises by Lessee shall not constitute an acknowledgment that no
Default or Breach by Lessee of this Lease exists, nor shall such consent be
deemed a waiver of any then existing Default or Breach, except as may be
otherwise specifically stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such
consent.
(b) All conditions to Lessor's consent authorized by this Lease
are acknowledged by Lessee as being reasonable. The failure to specify herein
any particular condition to Lessor's consent shall not preclude the
impositions by Lessor at the time of consent of such further or other
conditions as are then reasonable with reference to the particular matter for
which consent is being given.
37. GUARANTOR.
37.1 FORM OF GUARANTY. If there are to be any Guarantors of this
Lease per Paragraph 1.11, the form of the guaranty to be executed by each
such Guarantor shall be in the form most recently published by the American
Industrial Real Estate Association, and each such Guarantor shall have the
same obligations as Lessee under this Lease, including, but not limited to,
the obligation to provide the Tenancy Statement and information required in
Paragraph 16.
37.2 ADDITIONAL OBLIGATIONS OF GUARANTOR. It shall constitute a
Default of the Lessee under this Lease if any such Guarantor fails or
refuses, upon reasonable request by Lessor to give: (a) evidence of the due
execution of the guaranty called for by this Lease, including the authority
of the Guarantor (and of the party signing on Guarantor's behalf) to obligate
such Guarantor on said guaranty, and resolution of its board of directors
authorizing the making of such guaranty, together with a certificate of
incumbency showing the signatures of the persons authorized to sign on its
behalf, (b) current financial statements of Guarantor as may from time to
time be requested by Lessor, (c) a Tenancy Statement, or (d) written
confirmation that the guaranty is still in effect.

have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire term hereof subject to
all of the provisions of this Lease.
39. OPTIONS.
39.1 DEFINITION. As used in this Lease, the word "OPTION" has the

other property of Lessor or the right of first offer to lease other property
of Lessor; (c) the right to purchase the Premises, or the right of first

offer to purchase other property of Lessor.
39.2 OPTIONS PERSONAL TO ORIGINAL LESSEE. Each Option granted to
Lessee in this Lease is personal to the original Lessee named in Paragraph
1.1 hereof, and cannot be voluntarily or involuntarily assigned or exercised
by any person or entity other than said original Lessee while the original
Lessee is in full and actual possession of the Premises and without the
intention of thereafter assigning or subletting. The Options, if any, herein
granted to Lessee are not assignable, either as a part of an assignment of
this Lease or separately or apart therefrom, and no Option may be separated
from this Lease in any manner, by reservation or otherwise.
39.3 MULTIPLE OPTIONS. In the event that Lessee has any multiple
Options to extend or renew this Lease, a later option cannot be exercised
unless the prior Options to extend or renew this Lease have been validly
exercised.
39.4 EFFECT OF DEFAULT ON OPTIONS.
(a) Lessee shall have no right to exercise an Option,
notwithstanding any provision in the grant of Option to the contrary: (i)
during the period commencing with the giving of any notice of Default under
Paragraph 13.1 and continuing until the noticed Default is cured, or (ii)
during the period of time any monetary obligation due Lessor from Lessee is
unpaid (without regard to whether notice thereof is given Lessee), or (iii)
during the time Lessee is in Breach of this Lease, or (iv) in the event that
Lessor has given to Lessee three (3) or more notices of separate Defaults
under Paragraph 13.1 during the twelve (12) month period immediately
preceding the exercise of the Option, whether or not the Defaults are cured.
(b) The period of time within which an Option may be exercised
shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Lessee's inability to exercise
an Option because of the provisions of Paragraph 39.4(a).
(c) All rights of Lessee under the provisions of an Option shall
terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Lessee's due
and timely exercise of the Option, if, after such exercise and during the
term of this Lease, (i) Lessee fails to pay to Lessor a monetary obligation
of Lessee for a period of thirty (30) days after such obligation becomes due
(without any necessity of Lessor to give notice thereof to Lessee), or (ii)
Lessor gives to Lessee three (3) or more notices of separate Defaults under
Paragraph 13.1 during any twelve (12) month period, whether or not the
Defaults are cured, or (iii) if Lessee commits a Breach of this Lease.
40. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Lessee agrees that it will abide by, and keep and
observe all reasonable rules and regulations ("RULES AND REGULATIONS") which
Lessor may make from time to time for the management, safety, care, and
cleanliness of the grounds, the parking and unloading of vehicles and the
preservation of good order, as well as for the convenience of other occupants
or tenants of the Building and the Industrial Center and their invitees.
41. SECURITY MEASURES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that the rental payable to
Lessor hereunder does not include the cost of guard service or other security

same. Lessee assumes all responsibility for the protection of the Premises,
Lessee, its agents and invitees and their property from the acts of third
parties.
42. RESERVATIONS. Lessor reserves the right, from time to time, to grant,
without the consent or joinder of Lessee, such easements, rights of way,
utility raceways, and dedications that Lessor deems necessary, and to cause
the recordation of parcel maps and restrictions, so long as such easements,
rights of way, utility raceways, dedications, maps and restrictions do not
reasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Lessee. Lessee agrees to
sign any documents reasonably requested by Lessor to effectuate any such
easement rights, dedication, map or restrictions.
43. PERFORMANCE UNDER PROTEST. If at any time a dispute shall arise as to
any amount or sum of money to be paid by one Party to the other under the
provisions hereof, the Party against whom the obligation to pay the money is
asserted shall have the right to make payment "under protest" and such
payment shall not be regarded as a voluntary payment and there shall survive
the right on the part of said Party to institute suit for recovery of such
sum. If it shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part
of said Party to pay such sum or any part thereof, said Party shall be
entitled to recover such sum or so much thereof as it was not legally
required to pay under the provisions of this Lease.
44. AUTHORITY. If either Party hereto is a corporation, trust, or general or
limited partnership, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of such
entity represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute
and deliver this Lease on its behalf. If Lessee is a corporation, trust or
partnership, Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days after request by Lessor,
deliver to Lessor evidence satisfactory to Lessor of such authority.
45. CONFLICT. Any conflict between the printed provisions of this Lease and
the typewritten or handwritten provisions shall be controlled by the
typewritten or handwritten provisions.
46. OFFER. Preparation of this Lease by either Lessor or Lessee or Lessor's
agent or Lessee's agent and submission of same to Lessee or Lessor shall not
be deemed an offer to lease. This Lease is not intended to be binding until
executed and delivered by all Parties hereto.
47. AMENDMENTS. This Lease may be modified only in writing, signed by the
Parties in interest at the time of the modification. The Parties shall amend
this Lease from time to time to reflect any adjustments that are made to the
Base Rent or other rent payable under this Lease. As long as they do not
materially change Lessee's obligations hereunder, Lessee agrees to make such
reasonable non-monetary modifications to this Lease as may be reasonably
required by an institutional insurance company or pension plan Lender in
connection with the obtaining of normal financing or refinancing of the
property of which the Premises are a part.
48. MULTIPLE PARTIES. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if more
than one person or entity is named herein as either Lessor or Lessee, the
obligations of such multiple parties shall be the joint and several
responsibility of all persons or entities named herein as such Lessor or
Lessee.
LESSOR AND LESSEE HAVE CAREFULLY READ AND REVIEWED THIS LEASE AND EACH TERM
AND PROVISION CONTAINED HEREIN, AND BY THE EXECUTION OF THIS LEASE SHOW THEIR
INFORMED AND VOLUNTARY CONSENT THERETO. THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE THAT, AT THE

A. OPTION(S) TO EXTEND:
Lessor hereby grants to Lessee the option to extend the term of this Lease
for 1 additional 36 month period(s) commencing when the prior term expires
upon each and all of the following terms and conditions:
(i) In order to exercise an option to extend, Lessee must give written
notice of such election to Lessor and Lessor must receive the same at least 6
but not more than 7 months prior to the date that the option period would
commence, time being of the essence. If proper notification of the exercise of
an option is not given and/or received, such option shall automatically expire.
Options (if there are more than one) may only be exercised consecutively.
(ii) The provisions of paragraph 39, including those relating to Lessee's
Default set forth in paragraph 39.4 of this Lease, are conditions of this
Option.
(iii) Except for the provisions of this Lease granting an option or options
to extend the term, all of the terms and conditions of this Lease except where
specifically modified by this option shall apply.
(iv) This Option is personal to the original Lessee, and cannot be
assigned or exercised by anyone other than said original Lessee and only while
the original Lessee is in full possession of the Premises and without the
intention of thereafter assigning or subletting.
(v) The monthly rent for each month of the option period shall be
calculated as follows, using the method(s) indicated below:
(Check Method(s) to be Used and Fill in Appropriately)
/ / I. COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENT(S) (COLA)
a. On (Fill in COLA Dates): ________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
the Base Rent shall be adjusted by the change, if any, from the Base Month
specified below, in the Consumer Price Index of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor for (select one): / / CPI W (Urban
Wage Earners and Clerical Workers) or / / CPI U (All Urban Consumers), for
(Fill in Urban Area):
________________________________________________________________________________
All items (1982-1984 = 100), herein referred to as "CPI".
b. The monthly rent payable in accordance with paragraph A.I.a. of this
Addendum shall be calculated as follows: the Base Rent set forth in paragraph
1.5 of the attached Lease, shall be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of
which shall be the CPI of the calendar month two months prior to the month(s)
specified in paragraph A.I.a. above during which the adjustment is to take
effect, and the denominator of which shall be the CPI of the calendar month
which is two months prior to (select one): / / the first month of the term of
this Lease as set forth in paragraph 1.3 ("Base Month") or / / (Fill in Other
"Base Month"): ____________________________________________________________.
The sum so calculated shall constitute the new monthly rent hereunder, but in
no event, shall any such new monthly rent be less than the rent payable for
the month immediately preceding the rent adjustment.
c. In the event the compilation and/or publication of the CPI shall be
transferred to any other governmental department or bureau or agency or shall be
discontinued, then the index most nearly the same as the CPI shall be used to
make such calculation. In the event that the Parties cannot agree on such
alternative index, then the matter shall be submitted for decision to the
American Arbitration Association in accordance with the then rules of said
Association and the decision of the arbitrators shall be binding upon the
parties. The cost of said Arbitration shall be paid equally by the Parties.
/X/ II. MARKET RENTAL VALUE ADJUSTMENT(S) (MRV)
a. On (Fill in MRV Adjustment Date(s)) October 1, 2000 the Base Rent
shall be adjusted to the "Market Rental Value" of the property as follows:
1) Four months prior to each Market Rental Value Adjustment Date
described above, the Parties shall attempt to agree upon what the new MRV
will be on the adjustment date. If agreement cannot be reached, within thirty
days, then:
(a) Lessor and Lessee shall immediately appoint a mutually
acceptable appraiser or broker to establish the new MRV within the next

(i) Within fifteen days thereafter, Lessor and Lessee
shall each select an / / appraiser or /X/ broker ("Consultant" - check one)
of their choice to act as an arbitrator. The two arbitrators so appointed
shall immediately select a third mutually acceptable Consultant to act as a
third arbitrator.
(ii) The three arbitrators shall within thirty days of the
appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to what the actual
MRV for the Premises is, and whether Lessor's or Lessee's submitted MRV is
the closest thereto. The decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be
binding on the Parties. The submitted MRV which is determined to be the
closest to the actual MRV shall thereafter be used by the Parties.
(iii) If either of the Parties fails to appoint an
arbitrator within the specified fifteen days, the arbitrator timely appointed
by one of them shall reach a decision on his or her own, and said decision
shall be binding on the Parties.
(iv) The entire cost of such arbitration shall be paid by
the party whose submitted MRV is not selected, ie. the one that is NOT the
closest to the actual MRV.
2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the new MRV shall not be less than
the rent payable for the month immediately preceding the rent adjustment.
b. Upon the establishment of each New Market Rental Value:
1) the new MRV will become the new "Base Rent" for the purpose of
calculating any further Adjustments, and
