1800 CENTURY PARK EAST
This Office Lease, which includes the preceding Summary of Basic Lease Information (the “SUMMARY”) attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the Office Lease and Summary to be known collectively as the “LEASE”), dated as of the date set forth in SECTION 1 of the Summary, is made by and between STATE TEACHERS’ RETIREMENT SYSTEM, a retirement system created under the laws of the State of California (“LANDLORD”), and HERBALIFE INTERNATIONAL OF AMERICA, INC., a California corporation (“TENANT”).
ARTICLE 1
REAL PROPERTY, BUILDING AND PREMISES
1.1 REAL PROPERTY, BUILDING AND PREMISES. Upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Lease, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the premises set forth in SECTION 6 of the Summary (the “PREMISES”), which Premises are located in the “Building,” as that term is defined in this SECTION 1.1. The outline of the floor plan of the Premises is set forth in EXHIBIT A attached hereto. The Premises are a part of the building (the “BUILDING”) located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The Building contains 244,792 rentable square feet. Tenant’s rights to the Premises do not include the right to use the janitorial closet and the fan, electrical, and telephone rooms on the floors of the Building containing all or a portion of the Premises (provided that Tenant shall be permitted to use the telephone room on the floor or floors of the Premises to terminate its telephone cable in the same and install and maintain Tenant’s telephone equipment but only to the extent such equipment does not interfere with normal operation of the Building telephone equipment in such room, and thereafter Tenant shall have access thereto upon prior notice to Landlord and, except in emergencies, when accompanied by a representative of Landlord), and do not include the right to use, or access to, any ceilings or space above the ceilings on the floors of the Building containing the Premises (provided that Tenant shall be allowed to use such space on the floor or floors of the Premises as necessary for providing utility services such as the installation of computer cable conduits, as approved by Landlord, and thereafter Tenant shall have access to such space upon prior notice to Landlord and, except in emergencies, when accompanied by a representative of Landlord), nor do Tenant’s rights to the Premises include the right to use, or access to, any floors or walls on the floor or floors containing the Premises (with the exception of the inner surfaces thereof and with the further exception of any walls which are constructed solely to partition space within the Premises). The Building, the parking structure beneath the Building (the “MAIN PARKING AREA”) and the parking structure adjacent to the Building (the “SUPPLEMENTAL PARKING AREA”) (collectively, the “ON-SITE PARKING AREA”), the land upon which the Building stands and the land and improvements surrounding the Building which are common areas appurtenant to or servicing the Building are herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “REAL PROPERTY.”
1.2 COMMON AREAS. Tenant is hereby granted the right to the nonexclusive use of the common corridors and hallways, stairwells, elevators, restrooms and other public or common areas located on the Real Property designated by Landlord for the common use of the tenants of the Building (collectively, the “COMMON AREAS”); provided, however, that the manner in which such Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the reasonable discretion of Landlord, and the use thereof by Tenant and other persons and entities shall be subject to the Rules and Regulations (as the same may be modified from time to time in a reasonable, non-discriminatory manner) and as required by local governmental and quasi-governmental authorities. Landlord reserves the right to make alterations or additions to or to change the location of elements of the Real Property and the Common Areas; provided, however, that, if there is no emergency condition requiring such alteration or change, Landlord shall provide Tenant with fifteen (15) business days prior notice of any of the actions set forth in this SECTION 1.2, above, to be taken by Landlord if such action will substantially interfere with Tenant’s ability to (i) conduct business in the Premises, (ii) gain access to and from the On-site Parking Area and adjacent streets, or (iii) use the On-site Parking Area. Landlord shall at all times during the Lease Term, maintain and operate the Common Areas in a first-class manner customary to Comparable
1
Buildings. Subject to the terms of this Lease (including any provisions hereof which cover impairment of access), Tenant shall have the right of access to the Premises, the Building and the On-site Parking Area 24-hours per day, 7-days per week during the “Lease Term” as that term is defined in SECTION 2.1 of this Lease.
1.3 VERIFICATION OF RENTABLE SQUARE FEET OF PREMISES AND BUILDING. For purposes of this Lease, “usable square feet” shall be calculated pursuant to Standard Method for Measuring Floor Area in Office Buildings, ANSI Z65.1 - 1980 (“BOMA”). Landlord and Tenant agree that the number of usable and rentable square feet contained in the Premises initially leased by Tenant pursuant to this Lease are as set forth in SECTION 6 of the Summary and the number of rentable square feet in the Building is as set forth in SECTION 1.1, above. Rentable square feet for any full floors leased by Tenant of any Expansion Space or Available Space shall be the product of (i) 1.051 and (ii) the number of usable square feet contained in such space, measured pursuant to BOMA. Rentable square feet for any partial floors leased by Tenant as Expansion Space or Available Space shall be the product of (A) the number of usable square feet contained in such space measured pursuant to BOMA, and (B) the load factor for the floor such space is located on, as determined in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. The current load factors for the Building are as set forth in EXHIBIT K attached hereto.
1.4 BASE BUILDING. Landlord shall complete or cause to be completed, at its own cost and expense, the “Base Building,” as that term is defined in the Tenant Work Letter, attached hereto as EXHIBIT B. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease and in the Tenant Work Letter, Landlord shall not provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Premises. Tenant also acknowledges that Landlord has made no representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Premises or the Building except as specifically set forth in this Lease and the Tenant Work Letter.
1.5 EXPANSION SPACE. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the option to lease approximately 8758 rentable square feet of space known as Suite 1000 (“SUITE 1000”) and 6748 rentable square feet of space known as Suite 1050 (“SUITE 1050”), located on the tenth (10th) floor of the Building (collectively, the “EXPANSION SPACE”), as set forth in EXHIBIT A-1 attached hereto, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this SECTION 1.5 and this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant’s right to lease Expansion Space shall be subordinate to, and shall commence only after the expiration of, the “Existing Tenant’s Rights”, as that term is defined in Section 1.6, below..
1.5.1 METHOD OF EXERCISE. Tenant’s option to lease any of the Expansion Space shall be exercised in the following manner. Landlord shall inform Tenant prior to the date a particular Expansion Space will become available to occupy by Tenant, which notice in any event may not be delivered before July 31, 1998 as to Suite 1000 and November 30, 1998 as to Suite 1050. Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) business days thereafter, deliver written notice to Landlord stating that Tenant is interested in exercising its right to lease the applicable Expansion Space. Landlord, within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of Tenant’s notice, shall deliver notice to Tenant (the “EXPANSION RENT NOTICE”), setting forth the “Expansion Rent”, as that term is defined in SECTION 1.5.2 hereof. If Tenant wishes to exercise such option, Tenant shall, on or before the date occurring fifteen (15) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the Expansion Rent Notice, exercise Tenant’s option to lease by delivering written notice thereof to Landlord. Concurrent with such exercise Tenant may object to the Expansion Rent set forth in the Expansion Rent Notice, in which case Landlord and Tenant shall use good faith efforts to agree on the Expansion Rent. In the event that Landlord and Tenant do not agree to the Expansion Rent within fifteen (15) days of Tenant’s election to lease any of the Expansion Space, Tenant shall deliver a notice to Landlord (the “FAIR MARKET RENT EXPANSION NOTICE”) electing to submit the Expansion Rent to arbitration, and the Expansion Rent shall be determined as set forth in SECTION 2.2.2 of this Lease.
1.5.1.1 LANDLORD’S EARLY PUT RIGHT. If for any reason Landlord is able to offer Tenant occupancy of the Expansion Space earlier than November 30, 1997 for Suite 1000, or March 31, 1998 for Suite 1050, (the “EARLY PUT DATES”), Landlord shall notify Tenant of such availability (the “EARLY PUT”), and Tenant shall then have fifteen (15) business days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice to notify Landlord of its interest in exercising its option on the offered
2
Expansion Space. If Tenant elects to exercise its option pursuant to the Early Put the parties shall follow the procedures set forth in sentences three, four and five of SECTION 1.5.1 above.
1.5.1.2 RIGHTS FOLLOWING EARLY PUT. If Tenant declines to then exercise its rights under SECTION 1.5.1.1 with respect to the Early Put, or fails to respond within the fifteen (15) business day period, Landlord shall have the right to lease such Expansion Space to a third party (the “THIRD PARTY LEASE”) for a term with an expiration date which occurs on or before the earlier of (i) the last day of the fifth year of such term and (ii) November 30, 2000, as to Suite 1000 and March 31, 2001, as to Suite 1050. Following the expiration of the Third Party Lease, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the availability of the Expansion Space and Tenant shall then have fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice to notify Landlord of its interest in exercising its option on such Expansion Space. If Tenant elects to exercise its option, the parties shall follow the procedures set forth in sentences three, four and five of Section 1.5.1 above.
1.5.2 EXPANSION RENT. The Rent payable by Tenant for Expansion Space leased by Tenant (the “EXPANSION RENT”) shall be equal to the then “Fair Market Rent,” as that term is defined in SECTION 2.2.1.1, below, for the applicable Expansion Space.
1.5.3 CONSTRUCTION OF EXPANSION SPACE. Except as otherwise set forth in this SECTION 1.5 or as otherwise agreed to by Landlord and Tenant, the construction of improvements in the Expansion Space shall be governed by the applicable terms of the Expansion Rent and the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as EXHIBIT B, and for such purposes all references in the Tenant Work Letter to the “Premises” shall mean and refer to the applicable Expansion Space. Tenant shall receive an improvement allowance for the Expansion Space as determined as a component of the applicable Expansion Rent.
1.5.4 AMENDMENT TO LEASE. If Tenant timely exercises Tenant’s right to lease Expansion Space as set forth herein, Landlord and Tenant shall within a reasonable after determination of the Expansion Rent, execute an amendment adding such Expansion Space to the Lease upon the same terms and conditions as the initial Premises, except as other-wise set forth in this SECTION 1.5. Tenant shall commence payment of Rent for the Expansion Space and the term of the Expansion Space shall commence upon a date (the “EXPANSION SPACE COMMENCEMENT DATE”) determined as a component of the applicable Expansion Rent. The lease term of the Expansion Space shall expire on the Lease Expiration Date.
1.5.5 TERMINATION OF EXPANSION SPACE RIGHT. Tenant shall not have the right to lease the Expansion, as provided in this SECTION 1.5, if Tenant, as of the date of the attempted exercise of any right to lease the Expansion Space by Tenant, or as of the date of delivery of such Expansion Space to Tenant, is in “Material Default” under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods. For the purposes of this Lease, a “Material Default” shall consist of any default under SECTION 19.1.1., or 19.1.5, below, or a material default under SECTION 19.1.2, below. The rights contained in this SECTION 1.5 shall be personal to the Tenant named in the Summary and its “Affiliates,” as that term is defined in SECTION 14.6 of this Lease, and to any assignee (and not by any sublessee or other Transferee) of the Lease approved by Landlord pursuant to the terms of ARTICLE 14, and may only be exercised by such Tenant, an Affiliate, or an assignee (and not any sublessee or other Transferee) if Tenant and its Affiliates, or the assignee occupies at least four (4) full floors of the Premises. Time is of the essence of the right of exercising Tenant’s option as to the Expansion. Failure by Tenant to exercise its rights in a timely manner shall terminate the right with respect to the affected space. In addition, the right of Tenant’s exercising option as to the Expansion offer shall expire if Tenant does not exercise the First Option or the Second Option as set forth in SECTION 2.2.
1.6 RIGHT OF AVAILABILITY. Subject to the terms set forth in this SECTION 1.6, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a continuing right of availability to the “Available Space,” as that term is defined below, on the terms and conditions set forth in this SECTION 1.6. Such right of availability shall be subject to the terms and conditions (including expansion and first offer rights) of leases existing in the Building as of the date of this Lease as such rights are set forth in EXHIBIT F attached hereto (the “EXISTING TENANT’S RIGHTS”), and further subject and subordinate to any and all present and future rights of other current and future tenants of the Building (collectively the “SUPERIOR RIGHT HOLDERS”) with respect to such space, other than rights of first offer, first
3
refusal, first availability or any right to expand which does not contain the right to expand into a predetermined amount of space at a predetermined time period benefiting future tenants or benefitting current tenants (unless contained in leases in existence as of the date of this Lease).
1.6.1 PROCEDURE FOR AVAILABILITY RIGHT. Tenant may inform Landlord (the “REQUEST NOTICE”), not more than twice in any Lease Year, that Tenant desires to lease additional space in the Building. Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days of receiving the Request Notice, deliver to Tenant a notice (the “AVAILABILITY NOTICE”), which Availability Notice shall describe all space in the Building, other than on the first floor, which will become available (including space which will become available only following a tenant’s failure to exercise an option to extend its term or expand its premises) for lease to Tenant within the three (3) year period commencing on the date of the Availability Notice, the lease rights relating to such space, and the projected dates upon which such space will become available to lease (the “AVAILABLE SPACE”), as well as the rentable square footage of the Available Space, and Landlord’s determination of the “Availability Rent,” as that term is defined in SECTION 1.6.3, below, for each such space,
1.6.2 PROCEDURE FOR ACCEPTANCE. If Tenant wishes to exercise its right of first availability, then within ten (10) business days of delivery of the Availability Notice to Tenant, Tenant shall deliver notice (the “ACCEPTANCE NOTICE”) to Landlord exercising Tenant’s right of availability as to all or any portion of the space described in the Availability Notice. If Tenant timely exercises its right of availability as set forth herein, Landlord and Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Acceptance Notice, execute an amendment to this Lease adding the space described in the Acceptance Notice to the Premises upon the terms and conditions as determined as a component of the “Availability Rent” as that term is defined in Section 1.6.3, BELOW. If Tenant does not timely deliver the Acceptance Notice, then Landlord shall be free to lease any of the space described in the Availability Notice to anyone to whom Landlord desires and on any terms Landlord desires. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not have a right to lease less than an entire portion of Available Space offered to Tenant by Landlord in any particular Availability Notice except as follows.
1.6.2.1 AVAILABLE SPACE ON MULTI-TENANT FLOORS. In the case of an Available Space which does not consist of all the space located on a floor, Tenant shall have the right to lease any or all of the Available Space on such floor, so long as any space remaining on such floor after Tenant’s lease of the applicable Available Space remains, in Landlord’s reasonable determination, in a leasable configuration,
1.6.2.2 Available Space ON FULL FLOORS. In the case where any Available Space consists of an entire floor of the Building, Tenant shall not have the right to lease less than the full floor, unless (i) Tenant shall lease at least 10,000 rentable square feet of such floor, and (ii) Landlord is unable to deliver to Tenant a comparable amount of space on a multi-tenant floor within nine (9) months after the date the space on such full floor will be delivered to Tenant.
1.6.3 AVAILABILITY RENT. The Rent payable by Tenant for the Available Space (the “AVAILABILITY RENT”) shall be the “Fair Market Rental Value” for such space, as that term is defined in SECTION 2.2.1.1 of this Lease. In the event that, concurrently with Tenant’s delivery of the Acceptance Notice, Tenant notifies Landlord that it does not accept the Availability Rent set forth in the Availability Notice, the Availability Rent shall be determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in SECTION 2.2.2 of this Lease, otherwise, the Availability Rent shall be as set forth in Landlord’s Availability Notice.
1.6.4 TERMINATION OF RIGHT OF AVAILABILITY. Tenant shall not have the night to lease Available Space, as provided in this SECTION 1.6, if Tenant, as of the date of the attempted exercise of such right by Tenant, or as of the date of delivery of such Available Space to Tenant, is in Material Default under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods. The rights contained in this SECTION 1.6 shall be personal to the Tenant named in the Summary, its Affiliates, and to any assignee (but not to any sublessee or other Transferee) of the Lease approved by Landlord pursuant to the terms of Article 14, and may only be exercised by such Tenant, an Affiliate or an assignee (and not any sublessee or other Transferee) if Tenant and its Affiliates, or the assignee occupies at least four (4) full floors of the Premises. Time is of the essence of the right of availability. Failure by Tenant to exercise its rights in a timely manner shall terminate the
4
right with respect to the affected space. In addition, the right shall expire if Tenant does not exercise the First Option or the Second Option as set forth in SECTION 2.2.
ARTICLE 2
LEASE TERM
2.1 INITIAL TERM.
2.1.1 LEASE TERM. The terms and provisions of this Lease shall be effective as of the date of this Lease except for the provisions of this Lease relating to the payment of Rent. The term of this Lease (the “LEASE TERM”) shall be as set forth in Section 7.1 of the Summary and shall commence on the date (the “LEASE COMMENCEMENT DATE”) set forth in Section 7.2 of the Summary (subject, however, to the terms of Section 5 of the Tenant Work Letter), and shall terminate on the date (the “LEASE EXPIRATION DATE”) set forth in SECTION 7.3 of the Summary, unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Lease Year” shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term commencing on the Lease Commencement Date; provided that the last Lease Year shall end on the Lease Expiration Date. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Base Building were in satisfactory condition at such time, provided that Tenant shall have the right to submit a punch list within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s delivery of the Base Building to Tenant detailing any Base Building items which fail to comply with the Tenant Work Letter. Landlord shall then complete said punch list items as required in the Tenant Work Letter. Notwithstanding the definition of the Lease Commencement Date for the Premises set forth above, if Tenant commences business operations from any portion of the Premises prior to the occurrence of the Lease Commencement Date (each space occupied to be known as the “PRE-OCCUPANCY SPACE”), all of the terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply to that portion of the Premises containing the Pre-Occupancy Space, except that Tenant shall have no obligation to pay any Base Rent or Direct Expenses during the period commencing on the date Tenant commences business operations from the applicable Pre-Occupancy Space and continuing until the Lease Commencement Date (the “PRE-OCCUPANCY PERIOD”). Tenant shall however be obligated to pay parking charges during the Pre-Occupancy Period for any parking spaces used by Tenant other than in connection with the construction of the Premises. Tenant shall have the right to commence business operations from any portion of the Premises during the Pre-Occupancy Period, provided that a certificate of occupancy or its equivalent permitting occupancy shall have been issued by the appropriate governmental authorities for the Pre-Occupancy Space.
2.1.2 Intentionally Deleted.
2.2 OPTION TERMS.
2.2.1 OPTION RIGHTS. Tenant shall have two (2) options to extend the Lease Term for a period of five (5) years each (the “FIRST OPTION TERM” and the “SECOND OPTION TERM,” respectively), (the foregoing option terms shall be referred to hereinafter sometimes individually or collectively as the “OPTION TERM”), which options shall be exercisable by notice delivered by Tenant to Landlord as provided below. Upon the proper exercise of each such option to extend, the initial Lease Term or First Option Term, as applicable, shall be extended by the Option Term, subject to every term and condition of this Lease, except that the applicable “Option Rent,” as that term is defined in SECTION 2.2. 1. 1, below, shall be determined as set forth in SECTION 2.2. 1. 1, below. Tenant shall have the right, exercisable concurrently with Tenant’s delivery of the “OPTION NOTICE,” as that term is defined below, to reduce the number of rentable square feet of office space which Tenant shall rent during the ensuing Option Term; provided, however, that Tenant may only reduce the size of the Premises in full floor increments (or so much of a floor as shall be leased by Tenant in the event of less that full floor leasing), and in no event shall Tenant be allowed to reduce the Premises to less than four (4) full contiguous floors. Tenant shall incur no penalty or charge in connection with the reduction in the size of the Premises during the ensuing Option Term.
2.2.1.1 OPTION RENT. The rent payable by Tenant during the First Option Term (the “FIRST OPTION RENT”) or the Second Option Term ( the “SECOND OPTION RENT”), as
5
the case may be (collectively, the “OPTION RENT”), shall be equal to the then “Fair Market Rent.” “FAIR MARKET RENT,” as used in this Lease, shall be equal to (a) ninety-five percent (95%) (or, in the case of Expansion Space, Available Space, or an Option Term for less than all of the Premises, 100%) of the face or stated rental rate (including all escalations thereto) and (b) one hundred percent (100%) of the other non-discounted economic terms at which tenants comparable to Tenant, as of the first day of the applicable Option Term or expansion term, are leasing for a comparable term, non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity space comparable in size, location and quality to the Premises, Expansion Space or Available Space, as applicable, from a willing, comparable landlord, at arm’s length in transactions where the tenant’s were represented by a third party, arms length broker that received a customary commission from the landlord, which comparable space is located in the Building or in the “Comparable Buildings,” as that term is defined in SECTION 29.35 hereof, taking into consideration (i) a new base year in connection with the payment of operating and tax expenses, (ii) rental abatement concessions being given such tenants, if any, in connection with such comparable space and, except with respect to any Option Term, in connection with the period of construction of such space, (iii) tenant improvement allowances and the value of tenant improvement work provided or to be provided for such comparable space taking into account and deducting the value of the existing improvements in the Premises, such value to be based upon the age, quality and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same can be utilized by Tenant, and in the case of any Option Term, taking into account the fact that such improvements were specifically suitable to Tenant at the time they were constructed, and, (lv) other monetary concessions, if any, paid to such tenants.
2.2.1.2 EXERCISE OF OPTIONS, Each option shall be exercised by Tenant in the following manner: (i) Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord (the “OPTION NOTICE”) not more than twenty-one (21) months and not less than eighteen (18) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or the First Option Term, as the case may be, stating that Tenant is interested in exercising its option, (ii) Landlord, after receipt of Tenant’s notice, shall deliver notice (the “OPTION RENT NOTICE”) to Tenant not more than eighteen (18) months and not less than sixteen (16) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or the First Option Term, as the case may be (the “OPTION NOTICE PERIOD”), setting forth the proposed First Option Rent or the proposed Second Option Rent, as the case may be, which shall be applicable to this Lease during the applicable Option Term; and (iii) if Tenant elects to exercise the option, then on or before the later of (A) sixty (60) days after delivery of the Option Rent Notice, and (B) the date which is fourteen (14) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or First Option Term, as applicable, Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord’s exercising the option and, concurrent with such exercise, Tenant may object to the Option Rent contained in the Option Rent Notice, in which case the parties shall follow the procedure, and the applicable Option Rent shall be determined, as set forth in SECTION 2.2.2 of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant fails to deliver the Option Notice during the Option Notice Period, Tenant may nevertheless, on or before the date which is fourteen (14) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or First Option Term, as the case may be, deliver to Landlord notice that Tenant elects to exercise its option to extend the Lease Term, in which case the Option Rent shall be determined as set forth in Section 2.2.2, below,
2.2.2 DETERMINATION OF OPTION RENT BY ARBITRATION. In the event Tenant timely objects to the applicable Option Rent, Landlord and Tenant shall in good faith attempt to agree upon the applicable Option Rent. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within ten (10) days following Tenant’s objection to the applicable Option Rent (the “OUTSIDE AGREEMENT DATE”), then Tenant shall make a separate determination of the applicable Option Rent (and notify Landlord of such determination), within ten (10) days, and such determination, together with Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent (which may or may not be as set forth in the Option Rent Notice), shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with SECTIONS 2.2.2.1 through 2.2.2.7 below. Failure of Tenant to make a determination of the applicable Option Rent within the ten-day period shall conclusively be deemed Tenant’s approval of the applicable Option Rent determined by Landlord as set forth in the Option Rent Notice.
2.2.2.1 Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing (or appraisal or investing, as the case may be) of commercial high-rise properties in the
6
Century City, California area. Each such arbitrator shall be appointed within fifteen (15) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date.
2.2.2.2 The two arbitrators so appointed shall within ten (10) days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two arbitrators.
2.2.2.3 The three arbitrators shall within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Option Rent, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof The determination of the arbitrators shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Option Rent is the closest to the actual Option Rent as determined by the arbitrators, taking into account the requirements of SECTION 2.2.1 of this Lease.
2.2.2.4 The decision of the majority of the three arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
2.2.2.5 If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator within (15) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date, the arbitrator appointed by one of them shall reach a decision, and notify Landlord and Tenant thereof, and such arbitrator’s decision shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
2.2.2.6 If the two arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator, or both parties fail to appoint an arbitrator, then the appointment of the third arbitrator or any arbitrator shall be dismissed and the matter to be decided shall be forthwith submitted to arbitration under the provisions of the American Arbitration Association, but subject to the instruction set forth in this SECTION 2.2.3.
2.2.2.7 The cost of arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally.
2.2.3 TERMINATION OF OPTIONS. Tenant shall not have the right to exercise any Option granted in SECTION 2.2 IF Tenant, as of the date of the attempted exercise of any Option, or as of the date of commencement of the applicable Option Term, is in Material Default under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods. The rights contained in this SECTION 2.2 are personal to the Tenant named in the Summary, its Affiliates, and to any assignee (but not to any sublessee or Transferee) of the Lease approved by Landlord pursuant to the terms of Article 14, and may only be exercised by such Tenant, an Affiliate, or an assignee (and not any sublessee or other Transferee) if Tenant and its Affiliate, or such assignee occupies at least four (4) full floors of the Premises. Time is of the essence of the Options. Failure by Tenant to exercise its rights in a timely manner shall terminate the Options. In addition, the Second Option shall terminate immediately if the First Option is not exercised.
ARTICLE 3
BASE RENT
Tenant shall pay, without notice or demand, to Landlord or Landlord’s agent at the management office of the Building, or at Landlord’s option, at such other place in the city of Los Angeles as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, in United States currency or a good check for United States currency, base rent (“BASE RENT”) as set forth in Section 8 of the Summary, payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 8 of the Summary in advance on or before the first day of each and every month during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease. The Base Rent for the first full month of the Lease Term, which occurs after the expiration of any free rent period, shall be paid at the time of Tenant’s execution of this Lease. If any rental payment date (including the Lease Commencement Date) falls on a day of the month other than the first day of such month or if any rental payment is for a period which is shorter than one month, the rental for any fractional month shall accrue on a daily basis for the period from the date such payment is due to the end of such calender month or to the end of the Lease Term at a rate per day which is equal
7
to 1/365 of the Base Rent. All other payments or adjustments required to be made under the terms of this Lease that require proration on a time basis shall be prorated on the same basis.
ARTICLE 4
ADDITIONAL RENT
4.1 ADDITIONAL RENT. In addition to paying the Base Rent specified in Article 3 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay as additional rent “Tenant’s Share” of the annual “Direct Expenses,” as those terms are defined in SECTIONS 4.2.7 and 4.2.2 of this Lease, respectively, which are in excess of the amount of Direct Expenses attributable to the “Base Year,” as that term is defined in SECTION 4.2.1 of this Lease. Such additional rent, together with any and all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease (other than Base Rent and any Security Deposit), shall be hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ADDITIONAL RENT.” The Base Rent and Additional Rent are herein collectively referred to as the “RENT.” All amounts due under this ARTICLE 4 as Additional Rent shall be payable for the same periods and in the same manner, time and place as the Base Rent. Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant which shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term, the obligations of Landlord and Tenant provided for in this ARTICLE 4 shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term, to the extent the same is attributable to the time period prior to the expiration of the Lease Term.
4.2 DEFINITIONS. As used in this Article 4, the following terms shall have the meanings hereinafter set forth:
4.2.1 “BASE YEAR” shall mean the period set forth in SECTION 9.1 of the Summary.
4.2.2 “DIRECT EXPENSES” shall mean “Operating Expenses” and “Tax Expenses.”
4.2.3 “EXPENSE YEAR” shall mean each calendar year in which any portion of the Lease Term falls, through and including the calendar year in which the Lease Term expires.
4.2.4 “OPERATING EXPENSES” shall mean all reasonable and actual expenses, costs and amounts of every kind and nature which Landlord shall pay during any Expense Year because of or in connection with the ownership, management, maintenance, repair, replacement, restoration or operation of the Real Property, including, without limitation, any amounts paid for (i) the cost of supplying all utilities, the cost of operating, maintaining, repairing, renovating and managing the utility systems, mechanical systems, sanitary and storm drainage systems, and escalator and elevator systems, and the cost of supplies and equipment and maintenance and service contracts in connection therewith; (ii) the cost of licenses, certificates, permits and inspections and the cost of contesting the validity or applicability of any governmental enactments which may affect Operating Expenses, and the costs incurred in connection with the implementation and operation of a governmentally mandated transportation system management program or similar program; (iii) the cost of insurance carried by Landlord, in such amounts as Landlord may reasonably determine; (iv) the cost of landscaping, maintenance, relamping, and all supplies, tools, equipment and materials used in the operation, repair and maintenance of the Building; (v) the cost of utilities, insurance and normal repairs and maintenance, together with those items included in item (xiii), below, incurred in connection with the On-Site Parking Area (provided that, to the extent in any Expense Year following the Base Year any such expenses are incurred by Landlord which in the Base Year were not included in Operating Expenses, the Base Year parking costs shall be deemed to be retroactively adjusted to the amount they would have been had Landlord included such expenses in the Base Year); (vi) fees, charges and other costs, including consulting fees, legal fees and accounting fees, of all contractors engaged by Landlord or otherwise reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with the management, operation, maintenance and repair of the Building and Real Property; (vii) any equipment rental agreements or management agreements (including the cost of any management fee and the fair rental value of any office space provided thereunder); (viii) wages, salaries and other compensation and benefits of all persons engaged in the operation, management, maintenance or security of the Building, and employer’s Social Security taxes, unemployment taxes or insurance, and any other taxes which may be levied on such wages, salaries, compensation and benefits; provided, that if any employees of Landlord provide services for more than one building of Landlord, then a prorated portion of such employees’ wages, benefits and taxes shall be included in Operating Expenses based on the
8
portion of their working time devoted to the Building; (xi) payments under any easement, license, operating agreement, declaration, restrictive covenant, instrument or agreement pertaining to the Building which comes into existence after the date of this Lease and which is approved or agreed to by Tenant;(x) operation, repair, replacement and maintenance of all “Systems and Equipment,” as that term is defined in SECTION 4.2.5 hereof, and components thereof; (xi) the cost of janitorial service, alarm and security service, window cleaning, trash removal, replacement of wall and floor coverings, ceiling tiles and fixtures in lobbies, corridors, restrooms and other common or public areas or facilities, maintenance and replacement of curbs and walkways, repair to roofs and re-roofing; (xii) amortization (including interest at the Interest Rate, on the unamortized cost) of the cost of acquiring or the rental expense of personal property used in the maintenance, operation and repair of the Building and Real Property; and (xiii) cost of capital improvements or other costs incurred in connection with the Real Property (A) which are reasonably intended to reduce Operating Expenses, provided that such costs shall be included in Operating Expenses only to the extent of Landlord’s reasonably anticipated yearly reduction of Operating Expenses for that particular Expense Year caused by such capital improvement, or (B) that are required under any governmental law or regulation that was not enacted prior to the Lease Commencement Date; provided, however, that any capital expenditure shall be amortized (including interest on the unamortized cost) over its reasonable useful life. If Landlord is not furnishing any particular work or service (the cost of which, if performed by Landlord, would be included in Operating Expenses) to a tenant who has undertaken to perform such work or service in lieu of the performance thereof by Landlord, Operating Expenses shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the additional Operating Expenses which would reasonably have been incurred during such period by Landlord if it had at its own expense furnished such work or service to such tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, for any Expense Year in which other than one hundred percent (100%) of the rentable space in the Building is leased during the entire Expense Year all “Variable Components,” as that term is defined in this SECTION 4.2.4, below, of Operating Expenses for such Expense Year shall be grossed-up, employing sound accounting and property management principles, to the amount such Variable Components would have been in the event the Building has been one hundred percent (100%) leased during the entire Expense Year and the adjusted amount of the Variable Components shall be used in determining Operating Expenses for such Expense Year. Such adjustment, however shall not result in Landlord receiving from Tenant and other tenants in connection with the Variable Components more than one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of such Variable Components. “VARIABLE COMPONENTS” shall be those componenets that vary based upon occupancy levels and shall specifically exclude Fixed Costs. “FIXED COSTS” means (a) premiums incurred by Landlord for liability insurance and property damage insurance relating to Landlord’s ownership and/or operation of the Building to the extent such rates are not affected by occupancy rates, (b) landscaping costs relating to the Building, (c) Building management office rent, (d) exterior window washing costs and (e) to the extent the same are not affected by the occupancy level of the Building, costs, including janitorial and utility costs, relating to portions of the Common Areas located outside the Building and portions of the Common Area located within the Building, which Common Areas are not located on floors of the Building above the lobby level of the Building.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this SECTION 4.2.4, for purpose of this Lease Operating Expenses shall not, however, include:
(1) any payments under a ground lease or master lease relating to the Building;
(2) except as provided in item (xiii), above, costs of capital nature (including amortization payments and depreciation), including but not limited to capital improvements, replacements, alterations and additions; provided, however, that whether a cost is capital shall be determined according to the sound real estate accounting principles consistently applied by Comparable Buildings;
(3) rentals for items which if purchased, rather than rented, would constitute a non-expensable capital improvement under item (2) above;
(4) the cost of any item (including costs incurred for the repair of damage to the Building pursuant to the terms of Article 11 of this Lease or otherwise) to the extent Landlord receives reimbursement from insurance or condemnation proceeds or which would be
9
reimbursable from insurance required (but failed) to be maintained by Landlord under this Lease, (provided that as to any deductible amount paid by Landlord in connection with damage and destruction, which deductible amount is not excluded from Operating Expenses under item (2), above, up to $75,000 of such deductible amount related to any one or more damage and destruction events may be included as an Operating Expense provided that in no event shall more than $25,000 in the aggregate relating to deductible amounts be included in Operating Expenses in any single Expense Year);
(5) costs, including permit, license and inspection costs, incurred with respect to the installation of tenants’ or other occupants’ improvements made for tenants or other occupants in the Building or incurred in renovating or otherwise improving, decorating, painting or redecorating space for tenants or other occupants of the Building;

(9) costs incurred by Landlord due to any violation of the terms and conditions of any lease of space or occupancy agreement in the Building;
(10) costs of overhead or fees paid to Landlord, to affiliates or partners of Landlord, partners or affiliates of such partners, or affiliates of Landlord for goods and/or services in the Building to the extent the same exceeds the costs or fees of such goods and/or services rendered by unaffiliated third parties on a competitive basis in Comparable Buildings;

(13) salaries of officers, executives or other employees of Landlord, any affiliate of Landlord, or partners or affiliates of such partners or affiliates, other than any personnel engaged in the management, operation, maintenance, and repair of the Building (and only to the extent they are so engaged) who are working in the Building management office and whose salaries are not typically included in the management fee being paid and included in Operating Expenses; provided Operating Expenses shall in no event include salaries of individuals who hold a position which is generally considered to be higher in rank than the position of the manager of the Building or the chief engineer of the Building;

Operating Expenses relating to periods of the Lease Term that fall partly within any Expense Year shall be reasonably allocated when determining Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses. In the event any portion of the Building is covered by a warranty at any time during the Base Year, Operating Expenses for the Base Year shall be deemed increased by such amount as Landlord would have incurred during the Base Year with respect to the items or matters covered by the subject warranty, had such warranty not been in effect during the Base Year (provided that no such increase shall be required if such item or matters are not treated or passed through as Operating Expenses in subsequent Expense Years). Any additional annual premium resulting from any new forms of insurance (which are not in replacement of previous coverage), any commercially unreasonable increase in insurance limits or coverage, or any commercially unreasonable decrease in deductibles in any year after the Base Year, shall be deemed to be included in Operating Expenses for the Base Year. The foregoing, however, shall not prevent Landlord from revising its insurance coverages in the normal course of business in accordance with Comparable Buildings, and in such event, there shall be no Base Year adjustment.

4.2.6 “TAX EXPENSES” shall mean all federal, state, county, or local governmental or municipal taxes, fees, charges or other impositions of every kind and nature, whether general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, (including, without limitation, real estate taxes, general and special assessments, transit taxes, leasehold taxes or taxes based upon the receipt of rent, including gross receipts or sales taxes applicable to the receipt of rent, unless required to be paid by Tenant, personal property taxes imposed upon the fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems and equipment, appurtenances, furniture and other personal property used in connection with the Building), which Landlord shall pay during any Expense Year (without regard to any different fiscal year used by such governmental or municipal authority) because of or in connection with the ownership, leasing and operation of the Real Property. For purposes of this Lease, Tax Expenses shall be calculated as if the tenant improvements in the Building were fully constructed and the Real Property, Building, Base, Shell, and Core, and all tenant improvements in the Building were fully assessed for real estate tax purposes, and accordingly, during any Expense Year, Tax Expenses shall be deemed to be increased appropriately.
4.2.6.1 Tax Expenses shall include, without limitation:
(i) Any tax on Landlord’s rent, right to rent or other income from Real Property or as against Landlord’s business of leasing any of the Real Property;
13
(ii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in addition to, or in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real property tax, it being acknowledged by Tenant and Landlord that Proposition 13 was adopted by the voters of the State of California in the June 1978 election (“PROPOSITION 13”) and that assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such services as fire protection, street, sidewalk and road maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental services formerly provided without charge to property owners or occupants, and, in further recognition of the decrease in the level and quality of governmental services and amenities as a result of Proposition 13, Tax Expenses shall also include any Governmental or private assessments or the Building’s contribution towards a governmental or private cost-sharing agreement for the purpose of augmenting or improving the quality of services and amenities normally provided by governmental agencies. It is the intention of Tenant and Landlord that all such new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies, and charges and all similar assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges be included within the definition of Tax Expenses for purposes of this Lease;
(iii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy, or charge allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or the rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any gross income tax with respect to the receipt of such rent, or upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operating-, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof;
(lv) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge, upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises; and
(v) So long as the Building is owned by the State of California or any local public entity of government, including, without limitation, a state public retirement system, this Lease and the Tenant’s interest hereunder may constitute a possessory interest subject to the payment of property taxes levied on the “full cash value” of that interest (the “POSSESSORY INTEREST TAX”). The full cash value, as defined in Sections 110 and 110.1 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, of the possessory interest, upon which property taxes will be based will equal the greater of (A) the full cash value of the possessory interest, or (B) if Tenant has leased less than all of the Real Property, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the full cash value of the Real Property that would have been enrolled if the Real Property had been subject to property tax upon acquisition by the state public retirement system; provided, however, that Landlord agrees that the Possessory Interest Tax allocable to Tenant shall not exceed Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the ad valorem real property taxes that would have otherwise been payable by Tenant under this Lease had Landlord not been a governmental entity (the “Ad Valorem Taxes”).
4.2.6.2 With respect to any assessment that may be levied against, upon, or in connection with, the Real Property, or any portion thereof, and may be evidenced by improvement or other bonds, or may be paid in annual installments, there shall be included within the definition of Tax Expenses with respect to any tax fiscal year only the amount currently payable on such bonds, including interest, for such tax fiscal year, or the current annual installment for such tax fiscal year.
4.2.6.3 If the method of taxation of real estate prevailing at the time of execution hereof shall be, or has been, altered so as to cause the whole or any part of the taxes now, hereafter or heretofore levied, assessed or imposed on real estate to be levied, assessed, or imposed upon Landlord, wholly or partially, as a capital levy or otherwise, or on or measured by the rents received therefrom, then such new or altered taxes attributable to the Real Property shall be included within the term “Tax Expenses” except that the same shall not include any enhancement of said tax attributable to other income of Landlord.
4.2.6.4 Any expenses incurred by Landlord in attempting to protest, reduce or minimize Tax Expenses shall be included in Tax Expenses in the Expense Year such expenses are paid.
4.2.6.5 Tax refund received by Landlord shall be retroactively deducted from Tax Expenses for the Expense Year to which they apply.
14
4.2.6.6 If Tax Expenses for any period during the Lease Term or any extension thereof are increased after payment thereof by Landlord for any reason, including, without limitation, error or reassessment by applicable governmental or municipal authorities, Tenant shall pay Landlord within thirty (30) days of demand Tenant’s Share of such increased Tax Expenses.
4.2.6.7 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Tax Expenses shall not include (1) any excess profits taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes, federal and state income taxes, and other taxes to the extent applicable to Landlord’s general or net income (as opposed to rents or receipts), (ii) taxes on tenant improvements in any space in the Building based on an assessed level in excess of the assessed level for which Tenant is individually and directly responsible under this Lease, (iii) penalties incurred as a result of Landlord’s negligence, inability or unwillingness to make payments of, and/or to file any tax or informational returns with respect to, any Tax Expenses, when due, (lv) any real estate taxes directly payable by Tenant or any other tenant in the Building under the applicable provisions in their respective leases, (v) any items included as Operating Expenses or specifically excluded from Operating Expenses (other than Tax Expenses permitted in Article 4).
4.2.6.8 The Tax Expenses for the Base Year shall be calculated without regard to any reduction to such taxes pursuant to the terms of Proposition 8, and if the Tax Expenses are calculated using a Possessory Interest Tax, the Tax Expenses for the Base Year shall be calculated as if they were Ad Valorem Taxes, without regard to any reduction to such taxes pursuant to the terms of Proposition 8. Tenant, however, shall have no right to credits or offsets against Rent, Operating Expenses or Tax Expenses by reason of Proposition 8 reductions obtained by Landlord in any other Expense Year.
4.2.6.9 During the Base Year, the amount of Tax Expenses shall be determined using Ad Valorem Taxes as if the Real Property, the Building, the Base Building and all “Tenant Improvements,” as that term is defined in Section 2.1 of the Tenant Work Letter, were fully constructed, occupied and assessed for real estate tax purposes, and shall be increased to reflect any real estate tax assessments relating to building renovations commenced or complete prior to the Lease Commencement Date, and any gross receipts tax which is part of Direct Expenses for the Base Year shall be grossed up during the Base Year as though the Building was fully occupied with rent paying tenants.
4.2.7 “TENANT’S SHARE” shall mean the percentage set forth in Section 9.2 of the Summary. Tenant’s Share was calculated by multiplying the number of rentable square feet of the Premises by 100 and dividing the product by the total rentable square feet in the Building. In the event either the rentable square feet of the Premises and/or the total rentable square feet of the Building is changed pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Tenant’s Share shall be appropriately adjusted, and, as to the Expense Year in which such change occurs, Tenant’s Share for such year shall be determined on the basis of the number of days during such Expense Year that each such Tenant’s Share was in effect.
4.3 CALCULATION AND PAYMENT OF ADDITIONAL RENT.
4.3.1 CALCULATION OF EXCESS. If for any Expense Year ending or commencing within the Lease Term, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for such Expense Year exceeds Tenant’s Share of the Direct Expenses attributable to the Base Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in SECTION 4.3.2, below, and as Additional Rent, an amount equal to the excess (the “EXCESS”).
4.3.2 STATEMENT OF ACTUAL DIRECT EXPENSES AND PAYMENT BY TENANT. Landlord shall endeavor to give to Tenant on or before the first day of April following the end of April following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the “STATEMENT”) which shall state the Direct Expenses incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount, if any, of any Excess. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year ending during the Lease Term, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due (but not prior to thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Statement), the full amount of the Excess for such Expense Year, less the amount, if any, paid during such Expense Year as “Estimated Excess”, as
15
that term is defined in SECTION 4.3.3., below. If the amount of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses is less than the amount paid by Tenant as Estimated Excess during the applicable Expense Year, Landlord shall credit such amount against the next Rent due or pay the difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days if this Lease has terminated or expired (other than pursuant to a default by Tenant). The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord from enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of the Direct Expenses for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Statement pay to Landlord an amount as calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3 of this Lease. The provisions of THIS SECTION 4.3.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.
4.3.3 STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED DIRECT EXPENSES. In addition, Landlord shall give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the “ESTIMATE STATEMENT”) which shall set forth Landlord’s reasonable estimate (the “ESTIMATE”) of what the total amount of Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the estimated Excess (the “ESTIMATED EXCESS”) as calculated by comparing Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses attributable to the then-current Expense Year, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to the amount of Direct Expenses attributable to the Base Year. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Excess under this Article 4. If pursuant to the Estimate Statement an Estimated Excess ‘is calculated for the then-current Expense Year, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, a fraction of the Estimated Excess for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4.3.3). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year to the month of such payment, both months inclusive, and shall have twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished, Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.
4.4 ALLOCATION OF DIRECT EXPENSES. Certain of the Direct Expenses are determined annually in the aggregate for the Real Property and the building located at 1840 Century Park East (collectively, the “PROJECT”). Such Direct Expenses shall be separately allocated by Landlord to each building. The portion of Direct Expenses allocated to the Building shall consist of (i) all Direct Expenses attributable solely to the Building and (11) an equitable portion (either split evenly among the two buildings of the Project or divided based upon the ratio of the number of rentable square feet in the Building to the total number of rentable square feet in the Project) of Direct Expenses attributable to the Project as a whole and not attributable solely to either building.
4.5 TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES FOR WHICH TENANT IS DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes required to be paid by Landlord (except to the extent included in Tax Expenses), excluding state, local and federal personal or corporate income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources and estate and inheritance taxes, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties hereto, when-.
4.5.1 Said taxes are measured by or reasonably attributable to the cost or value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises, or by the cost or value of any leasehold improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, to the extent the leasehold improvements regardless of whether title to such improvements shall be vested in Tenant or Landlord are assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than $40.00 per usable square foot of the Premises (the “CUT-OFF POINT”), provided that any amount of real estate taxes attributable to tenant improvements made in or to the Premises or in or to any other premises in the Building paid directly by Tenant and such other tenants in excess of the Cut-Off Point shall not be included in Tax Expenses;
4.5.2 Said taxes are assessed upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Real Property, including Taxes on Tenant’s right to use the On-site Parking Area; or
16
4.5.3 Said taxes are assessed upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
4.6 TENANT’S PAYMENT OF CERTAIN TAX EXPENSES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event that after the commencement of the Lease Term any sale, refinancing, or change in ownership of the Real Property is consummated, and as a result thereof, and to the extent that in connection therewith, the Real Property is reassessed (the “Reassessment”) for real estate tax purposes by the appropriate governmental authority pursuant to the terms of Proposition I’) (as adopted by the voters of the State of California in the June, 1978 election), then the terms of this Section I shall apply.
4.6.1 THE TAX INCREASE. For purposes of this SECTION 4.6, the term “Tax INCREASE” shall mean that portion of the Tax Expenses, as calculated immediately following the Reassessment, which is attributable solely to the Reassessment. Accordingly, the term Tax Increase shall not include any portion of the Tax Expenses, as calculated immediately following the Reassessment, which (i) is attributable to the initial assessment of the value of the Real Property, the base, shell and core of the Building, or the tenant improvements located in the Building, (11) is attributable to assessments pending immediately prior to the Reassessment, which assessments were conducted during, and included in, such Reassessment, or which assessments were otherwise rendered unnecessary following the Reassessment, or (iii) is attributable to the annual inflationary increase to real estate taxes.
4.6.2 TENANT’S Protection. During the first five (5) years of the Lease Term, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any portion of the Tax Increase relating to any Reassessment.
4.7 LANDLORD’S BOOKS AND RECORDS, TENANT AUDIT.
4.7.1 In connection with each Statement of Direct Expenses, Tenant’s professional audit or accounting staff shall have the right, after reasonable notice and at reasonable times, to inspect and photocopy Landlord’s accounting records at the office in the Building and Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with such staff to adequately substantiate such expenses. If, after such inspection and photocopying, Tenant continues to dispute the amount due, Tenant shall be entitled to retain, on a non-contingency fee basis, an independent, certified public accountant of regional or national prominence, or the real estate audit service known as Kislak, to audit and/or review Landlord’s records to determine the proper amount of Direct Expenses (the “INITIAL AUDIT”). Tenant may exercise such audit night only once per year and any such audit must be completed by Tenant within one hundred eighty (180) days after commencement thereof If such audit or review- reveals an overpayment and if Landlord does not reasonably dispute the result of such audit or review, then Tenant shall provide Landlord a copy of such audit or review and within thirty (30) days after the results of such audit or review are made available to Landlord, Landlord shall credit the next monthly rent payment of Tenant (or if the Term has expired, refund the overpayment) in the amount of the overpayment. If the audit or review (or any other audit or review) reveals an underpayment, then within thirty (30) days after the results of the audit or review are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the amount of such underpayment. If Landlord or Tenant disagrees with respect to such audit or review results, and notifies the other party of such disagreement or dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of the results of such audit or review, either party may submit the results of the audit or review to arbitration pursuant TO ARTICLE 24 hereof Tenant agrees to pay the costs of such audit or review, provided that, if the audit or review reveals that Landlord’s determination sent to Tenant was in error in Landlord’s favor by more than two percent (2%) in the aggregate, Landlord shall pay the reasonable cost of such audit or review. Landlord shall be required to maintain records of all Direct Expenses for two (2) years after the completion of each Lease Year provided that Landlord shall maintain a reasonable Base Year records (but not invoices) throughout the Lease Term. The payment by Tenant of any Direct Expenses shall not preclude Tenant or Landlord from questioning the correctness of any actual statement provided by Landlord at any time during the period ending two (2) years after receipt of Landlord’s Statement, but the failure of Tenant to object thereto within two (2) years after receipt of Landlord Statement for a particular Expense Year shall be conclusively deemed Tenant’s approval of the actual Statement. The failure of Landlord to question any statement within (2) years after Tenant’s receipt thereof for a particular Expense Year shall be conclusively deemed Landlord’s approval of the actual statement.
17
4.7.2 Landlord shall have the right to recover from Tenant the amount of Tenant’s Share of any Direct Expenses attributable to a Expense Year, but paid in a subsequent Expense Year; provided, however, that except as set forth below in this Section 4 7.2, Landlord may only adjust the Direct Expenses for any given Expense Year within two (2) years after the expiration of such Expense Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may adjust Direct Expenses more than two (2) years after the expiration of any given Expense Year in connection with Tax Expenses or other governmental or public sector charges (including, but not limited to utility charges) first billed to Landlord after such two (2) year period but which relate to Direct Expenses for such Expense Year.
4.7.3 If Landlord has acknowledged in writing an error in the computation of Direct Expenses to another tenant, Landlord shall correct such error to the extent it appears in Tenant’s Direct Expenses computation for the same Expense Year.
ARTICLE 5

Tenant shall use the Premises solely for general business and professional offices, all as shall be consistent with the character of the Building as a first-class office building, and Tenant shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose or purposes whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion.
5.2 PROHIBITED USES. Tenant further covenants and agrees that it shall not use, or suffer or pen-nit any person or persons to use, the Premises or any part thereof for any use or purpose contrary to the provisions of Exhibit D, attached hereto (the “RULES AND REGULATIONS”), or in violation of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California, or the ordinances, regulations or requirements of the local municipal or county governing body or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Building. Tenant shall not at any time use or occupy knowingly or allow any person to use or occupy the Premises or the Building or do or knowingly permit anything to be done or kept in the Premises or the Building or perform any other action in any manner which: (1) violates any certificate of occupancy in force for the Premises, or the Building; (ii) causes or is likely to cause damage to the Building, the Premises or any equipment, facilities or other systems therein; (iii) results in repeated demonstrations, bomb threats or other events which require evacuation of the Building or otherwise unreasonably disrupt the use, occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Building by other tenants and occupants (provided that this clause (iii) is not intended to prohibit the customary and foreseeable practices of Tenant); or (iv) unreasonably interferes (after notice of such interference) with the transmission or reception of microwave, television, radio or other communications signals by antennae located on the roof of the Building or elsewhere in the Building. Tenant shall not use or allow another person or entity to use any part of the Premises for the storage (no matter how temporary), use, treatment, analysis, manufacture or sale of any Hazardous Materials. Landlord acknowledges, however, that Tenant will maintain products in the Premises which are incidental to the operation of its offices, such as photocopy supplies, secretarial supplies and limited janitorial supplies, which products contain chemicals which are categorized as Hazardous Materials. Landlord agrees that the use of such products in the Premises in compliance with all applicable laws and in the manner in which such products are designed to be used shall not be a violation by Tenant of this SECTION 5.2.

6.1.1 Subject to all governmental rules, regulations and guidelines applicable thereto, Landlord shall provide heating, ventilation and air conditioning (“HVAC”) when necessary for normal comfort for normal office use in the Premises, from Monday through Friday, during the period from 8 A.M. to 6 P.M. and on Saturday during the period from 9 A.M. to 1 P.M.,
18
except for the date of observation of New Year’s Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Memorial Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day and other holidays generally recognized by Comparable Buildings (collectively, the “HOLIDAYS”). The HVAC equipment in the Building (the “BUILDING HVAC SYSTEM”) is designed to perform substantially in accordance with the HVAC specifications attached to this Lease as EXHIBIT H (the “HVAC SPECIFICATIONS”). Landlord shall maintain and repair the Building HVAC System in a manner reasonably calculated to conform to the HVAC Specifications; provided, however, in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any failure of the Building HVAC System to conform to the HVAC Specifications due to (i) any normal wear and tear or obsolescence of the Building HVAC System, or (ii) Tenant’s particular use of the Premises, or Tenant’s actions or omissions which causes such non-conformance (including, without limitation Tenant’s use of heat-generating machines, equipment or lighting which is not standard for the Building, and/or use of the Premises by greater than the typical amount of persons commonly using comparable space in the Building). Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s sole expense and in accordance with plans and specifications therefor approved in writing by Landlord, to install, maintain and replace a private HVAC system or systems (the “TENANT HVAC SYSTEM”) separate from the Building HVAC System, in Tenant’s computer rooms, user rooms and other areas contained wholly within the Premises, provided that (1) such Tenant HVAC System does not interfere with the operation, maintenance, or replacement of the Building HVAC System and (ii) Landlord’s contractor (or a contractor approved by Landlord in writing), shall install the Tenant HVAC System. Landlord shall also cause the Building HVAC System and indoor air quality of the Common Areas within the Building and the Premises to meet, for the entire Lease Term and the Pre-Occupancy Period, the standards (the “AIR QUALITY STANDARDS”) which are the lesser of (i) those standards set forth in Standard 62-1989 (“VENTILATION FOR ACCEPTABLE INDOOR AIR QUALITY”), including both the requirements of the Ventilation Rate Procedure and Indoor Air Quality Procedure and the maintenance requirements, recommendations and guidelines contained therein, promulgated by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (“ASHRAE”), and any laws, ordinances, rules or regulations now in effect or hereafter promulgated by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Building or persons occupying or working in the Building relating to office building indoor air quality, or (ii) the level of indoor air quality maintained in the buildings located at 2020 and 2040 Century Park East, 1900 and 1901 Avenue of the Stars, 1875 and 1925 Century Park East, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, all in Los Angeles, California (the “COMPARABLE SYSTEMS BUILDINGS”). In the event the indoor air quality of the Premises or the Building Common Areas does not meet the Air Quality Standards, such condition shall be referred to as a “SICK BUILDING.”
6.1.2 Landlord shall at all times provide electricity to the Premises (including adequate electrical wiring and facilities for connection to Tenant’s lighting fixtures and other equipment) for lighting and power suitable for the use of the Premises up to seven (7) ▇▇▇▇▇ per rentable square foot demand load on a continuous annualized basis (the “AVAILABLE ELECTRICITY”). Such electrical usage, to the extent the same exceeds four and one half (4.5) ▇▇▇▇▇ per rentable square foot of the Premises demand load on a continuous, annualized basis shall be known as “EXCESS CONSUMPTION.” The amount of Excess Consumption used within the Premises shall be verifiable by meters or submeters, installed at Tenant’s sole cost and expense upon Landlord’s veri reasonable expectation of Excess Consumption.

19
provide exterior window washing services not less than two (2) times per year and interior window washing services no less than one (1) time per year. Landlord shall provide janitorial services in a manner reasonably calculated to conform to the Cleaning Specifications; provided, however, Landlord shall have the right to change the Cleaning Specifications from time to time so long as the janitorial services and window washing services of the Building remain consistent with that of Comparable Buildings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant reserves the right to provide, at its own cost and expense, its own Janitorial service to any part of the premises designated in writing to Landlord as a high-security area, as determined by Tenant (“SECURITY AREA”).
6.1.5 Except as otherwise provided in the “Passenger Elevator Specifications,” as that term is defined below, Landlord shall provide nonexclusive automatic passenger elevator service. At least four (4) passenger elevators serving the Premises shall be operational during normal business hours (subject to normal servicing and repair) and at least one (1) passenger elevator shall be operational at all other times.

Landlord’s Security shall provide Tenant, upon Tenant’s request and subject to availability, on weekdays after normal Building hours, with an escort to the vehicles of Tenant’s employees located in the On-site Parking Area through the use of Landlord’s Security personnel. Tenant may, at its own expense, install its own security system (“TENANT’S SECURITY”) in the Premises and common stairwells of the Building (which Tenant’s Security shall not include any armed security personnel); provided, however, that Tenant shall coordinate the installation and operation of Tenant’s Security with Landlord to assure that Tenant’s Security is compatible with Landlord’s Security. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the monitoring and operation of Tenant’s Security system. Tenant shall have the right to refuse admission of persons to the Premises, except for Landlord’s representatives in the event of an emergency or pursuant to Landlord’s entry fights set forth in this Lease.

Landlord shall notify Tenant, except in case of emergency, prior to any work requiring access to any Building telephone closets located on floors containing the Premises. Landlord shall allow Tenant to observe any work performed by Landlord in such telephone closets.
6.2 OVERSTANDARD TENANT USE. Tenant shall not, without Landlord prior written consent, use heat-generating machines or equipment or lighting which (i) causes Tenant to use Excess Consumption if such Excess Consumption affects the temperature maintained
20
by the air conditioning system or (II) increases the water normally furnished for the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease. If such consent is given, Landlord shall have the right to install supplementary air conditioning units or other facilities in the Premises, including supplementary or additional metering devices, and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation, operation and maintenance, increased wear and tear on existing equipment, and other similar charges, including the removal thereof upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of invoice. If Tenant uses water in excess of that supplied by Landlord pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefor, the Actual Cost of such excess consumption, and the Actual Cost of the installation, operation, and maintenance of equipment which is installed in order to supply such excess consumption, and the cost of the increased wear and tear on existing equipment caused by such Excess Consumption; and Landlord may install devices to separately meter any increased use and in such event Tenant shall pay the increased cost directly to Landlord on demand, including the cost of such additional metering devices and the cost of the removal thereof upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. If Tenant desires to use heat, ventilation or air conditioning during hours other than those for which Landlord is obligated to supply such utilities pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease (the “AFTER HOURS HVAC”), Tenant shall give Landlord such prior notice, as Landlord shall from time to time reasonably and on a non-discriminatory basis establish as appropriate (which may be no prior notice at all during such times as Landlord may keep in effect an automated system that requires no prior notice), of Tenant’s desired use and Landlord shall supply such utilities to Tenant at Landlord’s Actual Cost therefor. Amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord for such use of additional utilities shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder and shall be billed on a monthly basis, Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount paid by Tenant for After Hours HVAC exceed $50.00 per hour for each floor for which After Hours HVAC is ordered by Tenant (the “AFTER HOURS HVAC CAP”), during the first (1st) through fifth (5th) Lease Years. On the first day of the sixth (6th) Lease Year and on the first day of each Lease Year thereafter, the After Hours HVAC Cap may increase to an amount equal to the product of (1) the After Hours HVAC Cap for the prior Lease Year, and (ii) 1.05. Landlord may increase the hours or days during which air conditioning, heating and ventilation are provided to the Premises and the Building to conform to practices of Comparable Buildings.
6.3 INTERRUPTION OF USE. Tenant agrees that, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not be liable for damages, by abatement of Rent or otherwise, for failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any service (including telephone and telecommunication services), or for any diminution in the quality or quantity thereof, when such failure or delay or diminution is occasioned, in whole or in part, by repairs, replacements, or improvements, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by inability to secure electricity, gas, water, or other fuel at the Building after reasonable effort to do so, by any accident or casualty whatsoever, by act or default of Tenant or other parties, or by any other cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control; and such failures or delays or diminution shall never be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession of the Premises or relieve Tenant from paying Rent or performing any of its obligations under this Lease. Furthermore, Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of, or injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring, through or in connection with or incidental to a failure to furnish any of the services or utilities as set forth in this ARTICLE 6.
6.3.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease (except for Articles I I and 13 which shall govern and control the rights and remedies of the parties incident to damage, destruction and condensation), if Tenant IS prevented from using the Premises or any portion thereof (the “AFFECTED AREA”) to conduct its normal business operations and Tenant does not, in fact, use the Affected Area due to any of the following (not caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant’s employees, agents, contractors or subtenants except to the extent covered by Landlord’s insurance): (i) any service required to be provided by landlord to Tenant hereunder (including but not limited to passenger elevator service, the Telecommunications Systems, janitorial service, HVAC, electricity or water) (collectively, the “ESSENTIAL SERVICES”) not being provided to the Affected Area as required by the terms of this Lease, (ii) the presence, in a form or concentration in violation of applicable law then in effect, of Hazardous Materials (which Hazardous Materials were not brought onto the Premises by Tenant
21
or Tenant’s employees, agents, licensees or invitees), (111) a Sick Building condition, or (iv) Force Majeure, the following shall apply (collectively, the “Abatement Event”).
6.3.1.1 Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord notice (the “CURE NOTICE”) of the Abatement Event and if Landlord fails to cure such condition within five (5) consecutive business days after the subject loss of use of the Affected Area, then Rent applicable to the Affected krea (and to the extent parking passes rented by Tenant pursuant to this Lease correspond to the Affected Area and are not used by Tenant, then fees for such applicable parking passes) shall be abated from the date which is three (3) days after delivery of the Cure Notice (the “Abatement Start Date”) until the date when such failure is cured-, provided, however, that if Tenant has previously paid Rent, including parking fees to Landlord for a period of time subsequent to the Abatement Start Date, then Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days following the Abatement Start Date, reimburse to Tenant the amount of such excess payments.
6.3.1.2 If any Abatement Event shall not be cured within one hundred eighty (I 80) days after the Abatement Start Date, then Tenant, upon notice to Landlord (the “SERVICES TERMINATION Notice”) delivered within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day period after the Abatement Start Date (the “TERMINATION CURE PERIOD”), may terminate this Lease as to the entire Premises, which termination shall be deemed effective upon Tenant’s vacation of the entire Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Termination Cure Period shall be extended for each day Landlord is delayed by Force Majeure, for a maximum of ninety (90) days, from curing the event which gave rise to the rent abatement pursuant to SECTION 6.3.1 hereof
6.3.2 If any governmental entity promulgates or revises any statute, ordinance, building code, fire code or other code or imposes mandatory controls on Landlord or the Real Property or any part thereof, relating to the use or conservation of energy, water, gas, light or electricity or the reduction of automobile or other emissions or the provision of any other utility or service provided with respect to this Lease or if Landlord is required to make alterations to the Building or any other part of the Real Property in order to comply with such mandatory or voluntary controls or guidelines, then Landlord shall comply with such mandatory controls and may, in its sole election, comply with voluntary controls or make such alterations to the Building or any other part of the Real Property related thereto without creating any liability of Landlord to Tenant under this Lease, provided that the Premises are not thereby rendered untenantable. Such compliance and the making of such permitted alterations shall, except as provided in SECTION 6.3. 1, not entitle Tenant to any damages, relieve Tenant of the obligation to pay the full Rent reserved hereunder or constitute or be construed as a constructive or other eviction of Tenant. The cost of such compliance and/or alterations (whether mandatory or voluntary) shall be included in Operating Expenses to the extent allowed pursuant to Section 4.2.4, above.
6.4 ADDITIONAL SERVICES. Landlord shall also have the non-exclusive right, but not the obligation, to provide any additional services which may be required by Tenant, including, without limitation, locksmithing, lamp replacement, additional ‘anitorial service, and additional repairs and maintenance, provided that Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon billing, Landlord’s Actual Costs of such additional services.

In the event that more than one tenant orders any extra service or utility, if any cost item is applicable to more than one tenant, such cost shall be equitably apportioned by Landlord. Any Actual Cost, to the extent reimbursed to Landlord by Tenant and/or other tenants, shall be netted out of Operating Expenses to the extent previously charged to Operating Expenses or to the extent that the work was performed by individuals whose entire salaries or charge for the subject services are included in Operating Expenses.

Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not be required to make any repair to, modification of, or addition to the Building Structure and/or the Building Systems except and to the extent required because of (i) Tenant’s use of the Premises for other than normal and customary business office operations or (II) Tenant’s construction or installation of the Tenant Improvements, any Alterations, or the “Building Top Signage” or “Monument Signage” (as those ten-ns are defined in SECTION 23.4, below). Tenant shall, at Tenant’s own expense, pursuant to the terms of this Lease, including without limitation Article 8 hereof, keep the Premises, including all improvements, fixtures and furnishings therein, in good order, repair and condition at all times during the Lease Term. In addition, except as provided as part of Landlord’s repair obligations set forth above or elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s own expense but under the supervision and subject to the prior written approval of Landlord, and within any reasonable period of time specified by Landlord, pursuant to the terms of this Lease, including without limitation Article 8 hereof, promptly and adequately repair all damage to the Premises and replace or repair all damaged or broken fixtures and appurtenances; provided however, that, at Landiord’s option, or if Tenant fails to make such repairs, Landlord may, but need not, make such repairs and replacements, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof, including a percentage of the cost thereof (to be uniformly established for the Building) sufficient to reimburse Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs or expenses arising from Landlord’s involvement with such repairs and replacements forthwith upon being billed for same. Landlord may, but shall not be required to, enter the Preraises at all reasonable times to make such repairs, alterations, improvements and additions to the Premises or to the Building or to any equipment located in the Building as Landlord shall desire or deem necessary or as Landlord may be required to do by governmental or quasi-govemmental authority or court order or decree; provided, however, except for (i) emergencies, (ii) repairs, alterations, improvements or additions required by governmental or quasi-governmental authorities or court order or decree, or (iii) repairs which are the obligation of Tenant hereunder, any such entry into the Premises by Landlord shall be performed in a manner so as not to materially interfere with Tenant’s use of, or access to, the Premises. Tenant hereby waives and releases its right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code or under any similar law, statute, or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.
7.2 TENANT SELF-HELP AND OFFSET RIJZHTS.
7.2.1 If Tenant provides notice (the “REPAIR NOTICE”) to Landlord of an event or circumstance which pursuant to the terms of this Lease requires Landlord to fulfill an obligation, including, without lirm’tation, to provide services or utilities, or repair, alter, improve and/or maintain the Premises or to comply with law (a “REQUIRED ACTION”), and Landlord fails to provide the Required Action within the time period required by this Lease, or a reasonable period of time, if no specific time period is specified in this Lease, after the receipt of the Repair Notice (the “NOTICE DATE”), or, in any event, does not commence the Required Action within ten (10) davs after the Notice Date and complete the Required Action within thirty (30) days after the Notice Date (provided that if the nature of the Required Action is such that the same cannot reasonably be completed within a thirty (30) day period, Landlord’s time period for completion shall not be deemed to have expired if Landlord diligently commences such cure within such period and thereafter diligently proceeds to rectify and complete the Required Action, as soon as possible), then, provided that the Required Action is limited to the floors on which full floors of the Premises are located, Tenant may proceed to take the Required Action, pursuant to and in
23
accordance with all of the terms of this Lease, and shall deliver a second notice to Landlord specifying that Tenant is taking the Required Action (the “SECOND NOTICE”).
7.2.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except as provided in Articles 11 and 13), below, if there exists an emergency such that the Premises or a portion thereof are rendered untenantable and Tenant’s personnel are forced to vacate the Premises or such portion thereof and if Tenant gives the Building’s management office notice (the “EMERGENCY NOTICE”) of Tenant’s intention to take action with respect thereto (the “NECESSARY ACTION”) and the Necessary Action is also a Required Action, then, provided that the Necessary Action is limited to the floors on which full floors of the Premises are located, Tenant may take the Necessary Action if Landlord does not commence the Necessary Action within two (2) business days after the Emergency Notice (the “EMERGENCY CURE PERIOD”) and thereafter use its best efforts and due diligence to complete the Necessary Action as soon as possible.
7.2.3 If any Necessary Action will affect the Building Systems, the Building Structure or the structural integrity of the Building, Tenant shall use only those contractors used by Landlord in the Building for work on the Building Systems, or its structure, and Landlord shall provide Tenant (when available and upon Tenant’s request) with notice identifying such contractors and any changes to the list of such contractors, unless such contractors are unwilling or unable to perform such work or the cost of such work is not competitive, in which event Tenant may utilize the services of any other qualified contractors which normally and regularly performs similar work in the Comparable Buildings and which Landlord reasonably approves in writing, provided that Landlord’s failure to approve or disapprove such contractors within five (5) business days of Landlord’s receipt of a Repair Notice or within two (2) business days of Landlord’s receipt of an Emergency Notice such contractors shall be deemed to be approved.
7.2.4 If any Required Action or Necessary Action is taken by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.2, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for its reasonable and documented actual costs and expenses in taking the Required Action or Necessary Action within thirty (30) days after receipt by Landlord of an invoice from Tenant which sets forth a reasonably particularized breakdown of its costs and expenses in connection with taking the Required Action or Necessary Action on behalf of Landlord (the “REPAIR INVOICE”). In the event Landlord does not reimburse Tenant for the Repair Invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt, then Tenant may deduct from the next Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease, the amount set forth in the Repair Invoice plus interest at the Interest Rate (the “OFFSET RIGHT”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord delivers to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Repair Invoice, a written objection to the payment of such invoice, setting forth with reasonable particularity Landlord’s reason for its claim that the Required Action or Necessary Action did not have to be taken by Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease or that Tenant breached the terms of this Section 7.2, or that the charges are excessive (in which case Landlord shall pay the amount it contends would not have been excessive), then Tenant shall not be entitled to deduct such amount from Rent, but the dispute may be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the terms of Section 29.32 of this Lease for resolution.
7.3 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW BY LANDLORD AND TENANT. Landlord shall keep and maintain the Building Structure and Building Systems, the Building (excluding those portions of the Building required to be maintained by tenants and other occupants), the Base Building and the On-site Parking Area in compliance with any law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated, including any standard or regulation now or hereafter imposed on Landlord by a state, federal or local governmental body charged with the establishment, regulation and enforcement of occupational health or safety standards for employers, employees, landlords or tenants, that relates to the operation of the Building (collectively, “LEGAL REQUIREMENTS”); provided, however, that tenant hereby covenants and agrees that if such compliance is required with respect to the Tenant Improvements or Alterations or such compliance is required in any part of the Building or Base Building as a result of any Tenant Improvements, Alterations or Personal Property of Tenant which are not general office improvements or as a result of the Building Top Signage, Monument Signage, or any other Tenant Signage , Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of causing, and Tenant shall cause, the Premises, the Building and the Base Building, as the case may be, to comply with such legal requirements. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way conflict
24
with any law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.
ARTICLE 8
ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS
8.1 LANDLORD’S CONSENT TO ALTERATIONS. Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively, the “ALTERATIONS”) without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than thirty (30) days prior to the requested commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by Landlord; provided however, that Tenant may make changes in the Premises, not requiring any structural modifications to the Premises or any modifications to the Systems and Equipment upon fifteen (15) days prior notice to Landlord.

8.2 MANNER OF CONSTRUCTION. Landlord may impose, as a condition of its consent to all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that Tenant perform any work which in Landlord’s judgment is likely to disturb other tenants of the Building only during non-business hours, and/or the requirement that Tenant utilize for such purposes only contractors, materials, mechanics and materialmen reasonably approved by Landlord. Tenant shall construct such Alterations and perform such repairs in conformance with any and all applicable rules and regulations of any federal, state, county or municipal code or ordinance and pursuant to a valid building permit, issued by the City of Los Angeles, in conformance with Landlord’s reasonable and nondiscriminatory construction rules and regulations. All work with respect to any Alterations must be done in a good and workmanlike manner and diligently prosecuted to completion.

Upon completion of any Alterations, Tenant agrees to cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of the County of Los Angeles in accordance with Section 3093 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, and Tenant shall deliver to the Building management office a reproducible copy of the “as built” drawings of the Alterations, if any, provided, however, that if Tenant does not cause a timely Notice of Completion to be recorded, such failure shall not constitute a default under this Lease but Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any loss, cost, damage, claim or expense incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s failure to record the Notice of Completion.
8.3 PAYMENT FOR IMPROVEMENTS. In the event Tenant orders any Alteration or repair work directly from Landlord, the charges for such work shall be deemed Additional Rent under this Lease, payable upon billing therefor, either periodically during construction or upon the substantial completion of such work, at Landlord’s option. Upon completion of such work not ordered from Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, if payment is made directly to contractors, evidence of payment, contractors’ affidavits and full and final waivers of all liens for labor, services or materials. In the event of any work ordered directly from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a percentage of the cost of such work (such percentage, which shall vary depending on whether or not Tenant orders the work directly from Landlord, to be established by Landlord on a uniform basis for the Building) sufficient to compensate Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs and expenses arising from Landlord’s involvement with such work.
8.4 CONSTRUCTION INSURANCE. In the event that Tenant makes any Alteration, Tenant agrees to carry “Builder’s All Risk” insurance in an amount reasonably approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such other as Landlord may reasonably require, it being understood and agreed that all of such Alterations shall be insured by
25
Tenant pursuant to ARTICLE 10 of this Lease immediately upon completion thereof In addition, the original Landlord under this Lease may, in its discretion, require Tenant or its contractor to obtain a lien and completion bond or some alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-obligee; provided that no such bond shall be required for the Tenant named in the Summary unless legally mandated by the California Public Contracts Code.
8.5 LANDLORD’S PROPERTY, All Tenant Improvements and Alterations which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises or the Real Property, and all signs installed in, on or about the Premises or the Real Property, from time to time, shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and (except for any signs) shall be and become the property of Landlord, except that Tenant may remove any signs and any Improvements and Alterations which Tenant can substantiate to Landlord have not been paid for with any tenant improvement allowance funds provided to Tenant by Landlord, (collectively, the “TENANT’S PROPERTY”) and Tenant may also remove any Personal Property, provided, in each instance, Tenant repairs any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal. Furthermore, Landlord may, at the time of granting Landlord’s consent to any Alteration which is atypical for normal and customary office purposes, require that Tenant, at Tenant’s expense (i) remove such Alteration upon the expiration or early termination of the Lease Term and (11) repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal. If Tenant falls to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal of such Alterations, Landlord may do so and may charge the cost thereof to Tenant.
ARTICLE 9
COVENANT AGAINST LIENS
Tenant has no authority or power to cause or permit any lien or encumbrance of any kind whatsoever, whether created by act of Tenant, operation of law or otherwise, to attach to or be placed upon the Real Property, Building or Premises, and any and all liens and encumbrances created by Tenant shall attach to Tenant’s interest only. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notice which it deems necessary for protection from such liens. Tenant covenants and agrees not to suffer or permit any lien of mechanics or materialmen or others to be placed against the Real Property, the Building or the Premises with respect to work or services claimed to have been performed for or materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant or the Premises, and, in case of any such lien attaching or notice of any lien, Tenant covenants and agrees to cause it to be released and removed of record within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of notice from Landlord regarding the existence of such lien.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises, to the extent this Lease is not terminated, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant’s insurance required under SECTION 10.3 of this Lease, and Landlord shall thereupon repair any injury or damage to the Tenant Improvements and Alterations installed in the Premises and shall return such Tenant Improvements and Alterations to their original condition; provided that if the cost of such repair by Landlord exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant’s insurance carrier, as assigned by Tenant, the cost of such repairs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as construction progresses on a reasonable basis. In connection with such repairs and replacements, Tenant shall, prior to the commencement of construction, submit to Landlord, for Landlord’s review and approval, all plans, specifications and working drawings relating thereto, and Tenant and Landlord shall select the contractors to perform such improvement work. Such submittal of plans and construction of improvements shall be performed in substantial compliance with the terms of the Tenant Work Letter as though such construction of improvements were the initial construction of the Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its visitors, or injury to Tenant’s business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof; provided however, that if such fire or other casualty shall have damaged the Premises or Common Areas necessary to Tenant’s occupancy, and if such damage is not the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or Tenant’s employees, contractors, lisencees, or invitees, and is not covered by Tenant’s or Landlord’s insurance, Landlord shall allow Tenant a proportionate abatement of Rent during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease, and not occupied by Tenant as a result thereof; provided, however, that if more than 60,000 usable square feet of the Premises is damaged and the remaining portion of the Premises is not reasonably sufficient to allow Tenant or
29
an independent unit of Tenant to conduct its business operations from such remaining portion and Tenant does not conduct its business operations therefrom, Landlord shall allow Tenant a total abatement of Rent during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease, and not occupied by Tenant as a result of the subject damage.
11.2 LANDLORD’S OPTION TO REPAIR. Notwithstanding the terms of SECTION 11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises and/or Building and instead terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant ninety (90) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or cause and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) repairs cannot reasonably be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days of the date of damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums) certified by a contractor mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant; or (ii) the dollar amount of the damage or condition arising as a result of such damage not covered, including deductible amounts, by Landlord’s insurance policies is equal to or greater than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00); provided, however, that Landlord shall only have the right to terminate this Lease under items (i) and (ii), above, if Landlord terminates the leases of tenants occupying at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the rentable square footage of the Building (inclusive of the square footage of the Premises) and Landlord does not, in good faith, intend to relet such space so terminated for a period of twelve (12) months after the date of such termination; provided, further, however, that if Landlord’s general contractor within sixty (60) days after the date of the damage fails to certify in writing to Tenant (after written request by Tenant to Landlord for such certification) that the Building can be restored within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of the damage, Tenant shall then have the right, to be exercised not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to elect to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord on the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant. Furthermore, if neither Landlord nor Tenant have terminated this Lease, and the repairs are not actually completed within such two hundred seventy (270) day period, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease, which right if exercised must be exercised by Tenant in writing (the “DAMAGE TERMINATION NOTICE”) within the thirty (30) day period immediately following the expiration of the foregoing two hundred seventy (270) day period, and which termination shall be effective as of a date set forth in the Damage Termination Notice (the “DAMAGE TERMINATION DATE”), which Damage Termination Date shall not be earlier than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the sending of such Damage Termination Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant delivers a Damage Termination Notice to Landlord, then Landlord shall have the right to suspend the occurrence of the Damage Termination Date for a period ending sixty (60) days after the Damage Termination Date set forth in the Damage Termination Notice by delivering to Tenant, within five (5) business days of Landlord’s receipt of the Damage Termination Notice, a certificate of Landlord’s contractor responsible for the repair of the damage certifying that it is such contractor’s good faith judgment that the repairs shall be substantially completed within sixty (60) days after the Damage Termination Date. If repairs shall be substantially completed prior to the expiration of such sixty-day period, then the Damage Termination Notice shall be of no force or effect, but if the repairs shall not be substantially completed within such sixty-day period, then this Lease shall terminate upon the expiration of such sixty-day period. At any time, from time to time, after the date of the damage, Tenant may request that Landlord inform Tenant of Landlord’s reasonable opinion of the date of completion of the repairs and Landlord shall reasonably respond to such request within ten (10) days.
11.3 WAIVER OF STATUTORY PROVISIONS. The provisions of this Lease, including this ARTICLE 11, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part of the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Real Property, and any statute or regulation of the State of California, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or any part of the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Real Property.
30
11.4 DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. In the event that the Premises or the Building is destroyed or damaged to any substantial extent during the last twenty-four (24) months of the Lease Term, and Tenant has not previously or within sixty (60) days after the date of the casualty duly exercised an available option to extend the Lease Term pursuant to SECTION 2.2 of this Lease, then notwithstanding anything contained in this ARTICLE 11, either Landlord or Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other party of the exercise of such option within sixty (60) days after such damage or destruction, in which event this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of such notice.
11.5 TERMINATION. Except as set forth in Section 11.1, above, in the event of any termination of this Lease under this ARTICLE 11, Tenant shall pay the Base Rent and Additional Rent, properly apportioned up to such date of termination, and both parties hereto shall thereafter be freed and discharged of all further obligations hereunder, except as provided for in provisions of this Lease which by their terms survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, and each party shall retain the insurance proceeds from policies carried by each party.
ARTICLE 12
NONWAIVER
No waiver of any provision of this Lease shall be implied by (i) any failure of either party to insist in any instance on the strict keeping, observance or performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Lease or to exercise any election contained in this Lease or (ii) any failure of either party to enforce any remedy on account of the violation of such provision, even if such violation shall continue or be repeated subsequently. Any waiver by either party of any provision of this Lease may only be in writing, and no express waiver shall affect any provision other than the one specified in such waiver and that one only for the time and in the manner specifically stated. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Lease Term or of Tenant’s right of possession hereunder or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Lease Term or affect any notice given Tenant prior to the receipt of such monies, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit or after final judgment for possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment.
ARTICLE 13
CONDEMNATION
13.1 PERMANENT TAKING. If ten percent (10%) or more of any of the Premises or Building shall be taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument in lieu of such taking by eminent domain or condemnation, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon ninety (90) days’ notice, provided such notice is given no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such taking, condemnation, reconfiguration, vacation, deed or other instrument. If so much of the Premises is taken so as to substantially interfere with the conduct of Tenant’s business from the Premises, or if access to the Premises is substantially impaired, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon ninety (90) days’ notice, provided such notice is given no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such taking. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award or payment in connection therewith, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant’s personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claim does not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Real Property or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant and Tenant shall be entitled to receive fifty percent (50%) of the “Bonus Value” of the leasehold estate in connection with this Lease, which Bonus Value shall be equal to the sum paid by the condemning authority as the award for compensation for taking the leasehold created by this Lease. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination, or the date of such taking, whichever shall first occur. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Rent shall be proportionately abated. Tenant hereby waives any and all
31
rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure.
13.2 TEMPORARY TAKING,. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this ARTICLE 13, in the event of a temporary taking of all or any portion of the Premises for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less, then this Lease shall not terminate but the Base Rent and the Additional Rent shall be abated for the period of such taking in proportion to the ratio that the number of rentable square feet of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for claims made by Tenant as a result of the necessity of Tenant’s moving to temporary space during the period of such temporary taking.
ARTICLE 14
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
14.1 TRANSFERS. Tenant acknowledges that the economic concessions and rental rates set forth in this Lease were negotiated by Landlord and Tenant in consideration of, and would not have been granted by Landlord but for, the specific nature of the leasehold interest granted to Tenant hereunder, as such interest is limited and defined by various provisions throughout this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions of this ARTICLE 14 which define and limit the transferability of such leasehold interest. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit any assignment or other such foregoing transfer of this Lease or any interest hereunder by operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of the Premises by any persons other than Tenant and its employees (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as “TRANSFERS” and any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a “TRANSFEREE”). If Tenant shall desire Landlord’s consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the “TRANSFER NOTICE”) shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the Transfer, which shall not be less than 15 business days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice, (ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the “SUBJECT SPACE”), (iii) all of the terms of the proposed Transfer and the consideration therefor, including a calculation of the “Transfer Premium”, as that term is defined in SECTION 14.3 below, in connection with such Transfer, the name and address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer, including all existing operative documents to be executed to evidence such Transfer or the agreements incidental or related to such Transfer, and (iv) such other information as Landlord may reasonably require. Any Transfer made without Landlord’s prior written consent shall, at Landlord’s option, be null, void and of no effect. Tenant shall pay Landlord, in connection with any request for consent to a Transfer a processing fee of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00).
14.2 LANDLORD’S CONSENT. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of a Transfer Notice as to whether Landlord consents to the proposed Transfer or withholds its consent thereto; failure of Landlord to so notify Tenant in writing within five (5) business days of a second Transfer Notice delivered after the ten (10) business day period set forth above, which second notice indicates that failure to respond will be deemed approval, shall be deemed to constitute Landlord’s consent to the proposed Transfer. The parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply, without limitation as to other reasonable ground for withholding consent:
14.2.1 The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building, or would be a significantly less prestigious occupant of the Building than Tenant;
32
14.2.2 The Transferee intends to use the Subject Space for purposes which are not permitted under this Lease;
14.2.3 The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof of a type which does not then occupy space in the Building and (i) which is capable of exercising the power of eminent domain or condemnation, or (ii) which is of a character or reputation, is engaged in a business, or is of, or is associated with, a political orientation or faction, which is not consistent with the quality of the Building, or which would reasonably offend Landlord or a tenant which leases one or more floors of the Building or which (in Landlord’s reasonable judgment) may cause or present a possible security threat to the Building (e.g., bomb threats and the like);
14.2.4 The Transfer will result in more than a reasonable and safe number of occupants per floor within the Subject Space;
14.2.5 Unless Tenant will continue to occupy at least four (4) full floors of the Building (in which case this Section 14.2.5 will not apply), the Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities involved under the Lease on the date consent is requested; or
14.2.6 The proposed Transfer would cause Landlord to be in violation of any current or future lease or agreement for space on the ground floor of the Building to which Landlord is a party, or would give any current or future tenant of the ground floor of the Building a right to cancel its lease.
If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this SECTION 14.2 (and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord may have under SECTION 14.4 of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord’s consent, but not later than the expiration of said six-month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to SECTION 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the Transfer Notice such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this SECTION 14.2, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this ARTICLE 14 (including Landlord’s right of recapture, if any, under SECTION 14.4 of this Lease).
14.3 TRANSFER PREMIUM. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which the parties hereby agree is reasonable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the amount of any “Transfer Premium,” as that term is defined in this SECTION 14.3, received by Tenant from such Transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any period in which Tenant fails to occupy at least four (4) full floors of the Building, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of any Transfer Premium received by Tenant during such period. “TRANSFER PREMIUM” shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by such Transferee in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the Premises is transferred, after deducting the reasonable expenses actually incurred by Tenant for the following costs (collectively, the “SUBLEASING COSTS”): (i) any changes, alterations and improvements to the Premises in connection with the Transfer which comply with the terms of this Lease, (ii) any brokerage commissions in connection with the Transfer, (iii) reasonable legal fees incurred in connection with the Transfer, including those fees and costs reimbursed to Landlord pursuant to the last sentence of SECTION 14.1, (iv) the amount of any Base Rent and Additional Rent paid by Tenant to Landlord with respect to the Subject Space during the period commencing on the later of (a) the date Tenant contracts with a reputable broker to market the Subject Space, or (b) the date Tenant vacates the Subject Space, until the commencement of the term of the Transfer, and (v) any other “out-of-pocket” monetary concessions reasonably provided in connection with the Transfer, including, but not limited to, tenant improvement or decorating allowances. “TRANSFER PREMIUM” shall also include, but not be limited to, key money and bonus money paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such Transfer. If part of the Transfer Premium shall be payable to the Transferee other than in cash, Landlord’s share of such non-cash consideration shall be in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. The
33
determination of the amount of the Transfer Premium shall be made on an annual basis in accordance with the terms of this SECTION 14.3.1, but an estimate of the amount of the Transfer Premium shall be made each month and one-twelfth of such estimated amount shall be paid to Landlord promptly, but in no event later than the next date for payment of Base Rent hereunder, subject to an annual reconciliation on each anniversary date of the Transfer. If the payments to Landlord under this SECTION 14.3.1 during the twelve (12) months preceding each annual reconciliation exceed the amount of Transfer Premium determined on an annual basis, then Landlord shall credit the overpayment against Tenant’s future obligations under this SECTION 14.3.1 or if the overpayment occurs during the last year of the Transfer in question, refund the excess to Tenant. If Tenant has underpaid Landlord’s share of the Transfer Premium, as determined by such annual reconciliation, Tenant shall pay the amount of such deficiency to Landlord promptly, but in no event later than the next date for payment of Base Rent hereunder,
14.4 LANDLORD’S OPTION AS TO SUBJECT SPACE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this ARTICLE 14, if during any Option Term Tenant desires to transfer a portion of the Premises (the “TRANSFER SPACE”), other than pursuant to any “Non-Transfer” as that term is defined in Section 14.6, below, which Non-Transfer shall not be subject to the terms of this Section 14.4, for all or substantially all of the balance of the Lease Term, including the Second Option Term if the same shall have been exercised (I.E., a Transfer so that six (6) months or less of the Lease Term remains after the expiration of the term of such Transfer), Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the “INTENTION TO TRANSFER NOTICE”) of any contemplated Transfer (whether or not the contemplated Transferee or the terms of such contemplated Transfer have been determined) and the Intention to Transfer Notice shall specify that the same is delivered pursuant to this SECTION 14.4 in order to allow Landlord to elect to recapture the Transfer Space for the remainder of the Lease Term. Thereafter, Landlord shall have the option, by giving written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Intention to Transfer Notice, to recapture the Transfer Space. Such recapture notice shall cancel and terminate this Lease with respect to the Transfer Space as of the expiration of such thirty-day period (or such later date as Tenant may specify in the Intention to Transfer Notice as the effective date of the contemplated Transfer). In the event of a recapture by Landlord-of less than a full floor, Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expenses, cause a demising wall to be erected between the Subject Space and the Premises and shall perform all other work necessary to separate such spaces in accordance with plans approved by Tenant, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for one-half of its partitioning costs. In the event of a recapture by Landlord, if this Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent reserved herein shall be prorated on the basis of the number of rentable square feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of rentable square feet contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Transfer Space recaptured by Landlord shall, for the purposes of Section 11 of Exhibit G attached hereto only, be deemed to be space leased by Tenant. If and to the extent Landlord declines, or falls to elect in a timely manner to recapture under this SECTION 14.4 within such thirty-day period, then, Landlord shall not have the right to recapture any of the Transfer Space described in the Intention to Transfer Notice for a period of nine (9) months (the “NINE MONTH PERIOD”) and commencing on the expiration of such thirty-day period, Tenant shall have the right (subject to all the terms and conditions of this ARTICLE 14) to consummate a Transfer of the Transfer Space within the Nine Month Period, and, if a Transfer of all of the Transfer Space is not consummated within the Nine Month Period (or if a Transfer is so consummated, then upon the expiration of the term of any such Transfer), if the provisions of this SECTION 14.4 are applicable, Tenant shall again be required to submit a new Intention to Transfer Notice to Landlord with respect to any contemplated Transfer of such Transfer Space.
14.5 EFFECT OF TRANSFER. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the terms and conditions of this lease shall in no way be deemed to have been waived or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, promptly after execution, an original executed copy of all documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (iv) tenant shall furnish upon Landlord’s request a complete statement, certified by an officer of Tenant, setting forth in detail the computation of any Transfer Premium Tenant has derived and shall derive from such Transfer, (v) no Transfer relating to this lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto. whether with or without Landlord’s consent, shall relieve tenant or any guarantor of the Lease
34
from liability under this Lease, and (vi) such Transfer shall at all times be subject and subordinate to the terms of this Lease. Landlord or its authorized representatives shall have the right at all reasonable times to audit the books, records and papers of Tenant relating to any Transfer, and shall have the right to make copies thereof. If the Transfer Premium respecting any Transfer shall be found understated, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after demand, pay the deficiency and if understated by more than two percent (2%), Landlord’s reasonable cost of such audit.
14.6 NON-TRANSFERS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this ARTICLE 14, an assignment or subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to an entity which is controlled by, controls, or is under common control with, Tenant, or to a purchaser of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or to an entity resulting, by operation of law or otherwise, from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant (any such entity, an “AFFILIATE”) shall not be deemed a Transfer (for such purposes, a “NON-TRANSFER”) under this ARTICLE 14, provided that Tenant notifies Landlord of any such assignment or sublease and promptly supplies Landlord with any documents or information reasonably requested by Landlord regarding such assignment or sublease or such affiliate, and further provided that such assignment or sublease is not a subterfuge by Tenant to avoid its obligations under this Lease. “Control,” as used in this SECTION 14.6, shall mean the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person or entity, or ownership of any sort, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
14.7 LANDLORD’S RECOGNITION OF SUBLEASES UPON LEASE TERMINATION. At Tenant’s request, Landlord shall execute a recognition agreement (the “RECOGNITION AGREEMENT”) in favor of any sublessee of a sublease, which sublessee is otherwise approved by Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Article 14, which Recognition Agreement shall provide that in the event this Lease is terminated, Landlord shall recognize the Transfer and not disturb such Transferee’s possession of the Premises, or applicable portion thereof, due to such termination; provided that: (1) such sublease is made upon the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, subject to equitable modifications based on the number of rentable square feet contained in the Subject Space-, provided, however, the economic terms of such sublease may be more favorable to Landlord than those set forth in this Lease, (ii) the Subject Space shall contain either (1) one or more contiguous full floors in the Building, or (II) one or more contiguous floors along with space on any partial floor located immediately above or below the full floor or floors included in such sublease, (in either of I or II, above, such Subject Space shall not vertically bisect the initial Premises) (iii) all Subject Space which is located on the same floor is contiguous, (iv) Landlord shall not be liable for any act or omission of Tenant, (v) Landlord shall not be subject to any offsets or defenses which the sublessee might have as to Tenant or to any claims for damages against Tenant, nor shall Landlord be obligated to fund to, or for the benefit of, such sublessee, any undisbursed tenant improvement or refurbishment allowance or other allowances or monetary concessions, (vi) Landlord shall not be required or obligated to credit the sublessee with any rent or additional rent or security deposit paid by the sublessee to Tenant, (vii) Landlord shall not be bound by any terms or conditions of the sublease which are inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Lease, (viii) such recognition shall be effective upon, and Landlord shall be responsible for performance of only those covenants and obligations of Tenant pursuant to the sublease accruing after, the termination of this Lease and the vacation by Tenant of the entire Premises, (ix) as a condition to Landlord’s obligation to enter into the Recognition Agreement, Landlord shall have the right to reasonably approve the creditworthiness and financial strength of the sublessee, which reasonable approval shall be based upon the creditworthiness and financial strength then generally required by Landlord and landlords of the Comparable Buildings of new tenants leasing space of a rentable area comparable to the rentable area of the Subject Space for a term equal to the remaining Lease Term and at a rental rate equal to that payable under the sublease, (x) the sublessee shall make full and complete attornment to Landlord, as lessor, pursuant to a written agreement executed by Landlord and the sublessee, and (xi) the term of such sublease shall not be less than eighteen (18) months. Upon Landlord’s written request given any time after the termination of this Lease, the sublessee shall execute a lease for the space subject to the applicable sublease upon the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Recognition Agreement. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord’s reasonable legal fees incurred in Landlord’s preparation and approval of such Recognition Agreement.

ARTICLE 15
SURRENDER OF PREMISES; OWNERSHIP AND
REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES
15.1 SURRENDER OF PREMISES. No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically acknowledged in a writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of keys to the Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or subtenancies affecting the Premises,
15.2 REMOVAL OF PERSONAL PROPERTY BY TENANT. Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE 15 and SECTION 8.5, above, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Tenant took possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, free-standing cabinet work, and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and Tenant shall remove those items of furniture, furnishings, business machines and equipment, communications equipment and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises and such similar articles of any other persons or entities claiming under Tenant (collectively, “PERSONAL PROPERTY”) and Tenant shall remove Personal Property at times reasonably acceptable to Landlord and subject to the availability of freight elevator(s), provided that Landlord shall use good faith efforts to make the freight elevator(s) reasonably available to Tenant for such removal. Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal.
15.3 REMOVAL OF TENANT’S PROPERTY BY LANDLORD. Whenever Landlord shall re-enter the Premises as provided in this Lease, any Personal Property not removed by Tenant upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or within forty-eight (48) hours after a termination by reason of Tenant’s default as provided in this Lease, shall be deemed, abandoned by Tenant and may be disposed of by Landlord in accordance with Sections 1980 through 1991 of the California Civil Code and Section 1 174 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or in accordance with any laws or Judicial decisions which may supplement or supplant those provisions from time to time.
15.4 LANDLORD’S ACTIONS ON PREMISES. Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages or other liability in connection with Landlord’s reentering and taking possession of the Premises or removing, retaining, storing or selling the property of Tenant as herein provided, and Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from any such damages or other liability, and no such re-entry shall be considered or construed to be a forcible entry.
ARTICLE 16
HOLDING OVER
If tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease term hereof, with or without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and (i) for the first two (2) months of such month-to-month tenancy, Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Base rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease, and (ii) for the remainder of such month-to-month tenancy, Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease. Such month-to-month
36
tenancy shall be subject to every other term, covenant and agreement contained herein. Nothing contained in this ARTICLE 16 shall be construed as consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The provisions of this ARTICLE 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender, and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.
ARTICLE 17
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Within fifteen (15) days following a request in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of EXHIBIT E, attached hereto, (or such other form as may be required by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Building, or any portion thereof, indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. Failure of Tenant to timely execute and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements made in good faith included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception. Landlord hereby agrees to provide to Tenant an estoppel certificate signed by Landlord, containing the same types of information, and within the same period of time, as set forth above, with such changes as are reasonably necessary to reflect that the estoppel certificate is being granted and signed by Landlord to Tenant, rather than from Tenant to Landlord or a lender of Landlord.

SUBORDINATION
This Lease is subject and subordinate to all present and future ground or underlying leases of the Real Property and to the lien of any mortgages or trust deeds, now or hereafter in force against the Real Property and the Building, if any, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages or trust deeds, or the lessors under such ground lease or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto.

Additionally, each such non-disturbance agreement provided by landlord shall acknowledge that tenant may offset against Rent next owing under this Lease (i) any improvement allowance granted pursuant to the Tenant Work Letter or this Lease, including Sections 1.5 or 1.6 of this Lease, to the extent they have not been paid when due, (ii) any unpaid commission due and owing to Tenant Broker as set forth in SECTION 29.95, (iii) any abatements of Rent as allowed pursuant SECTION 6.3.1 of this Lease, and (iv) any abatements of rent as allowed pursuant to SECTION 7.2 of this Lease.

19.1.3 To the extent permitted by law, a general assignment by Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease for the benefit of creditors, or the filing by or against Tenant or any guarantor of any proceeding under an insolvency or bankruptcy law, unless in the case of a proceeding filed against Tenant or any guarantor the same is dismissed within ninety (90) days, or the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or any guarantor, unless possession is restored to Tenant or such guarantor within ninety (90) days, or any execution or other judicially authorized seizure of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets located upon the Premises or.- of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, unless such seizure is discharged within ninety (90) days; or

19.2 REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever:
19.2.1 Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim or damages therefor; and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:
38
(i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom (as allowed by applicable law); and
(v) At Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
The term “rent” as used in this SECTION 19.2 shall be deemed to be and to mean all sums of every nature required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, whether to Landlord or to others. As used in Paragraphs 19.2. 1 (i) and (ii), above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate. As used in Paragraph 19.2. 1 (iii) above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (I%).
19.2.2 Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable notations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.
19.3 SUBLESSEES OF TENANT. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this ARTICLE 19, Landlord shall have the night to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises except as to a Transfer subject to a Recognition Agreement pursuant to SECTION 14.7 of this Lease, Alternately, Landlord may, in Landlord’s sole discretion, except as to a Transfer subject to a Recognition Agreement pursuant to Section 14.7 of this Lease, succeed to Tenant’s interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements; provided however, that in such event (i) Landlord shall not be liable for any previous act or omission of Tenant under such sublease or agreement, (ii) Landlord shall not be subject to any defense or offset previously accrued in favor of the Transferee against Tenant, (iii) Landlord shah not be bound by any previous amendment or modification of any sublease or agreement made without Landlord’s prior written consent, and (iv) Landlord shall not be required to acknowledge any prepayment by Transferee of more than one month’s rent.
19.4 WAIVER OF DEFAULT. No waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other or later violation or breach of the same or any other of the terms, provisions, and covenants herein contained. Forbearance by Landlord or Tenant in enforcement of one or more of the remedies available to such party upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default. The acceptance of any Rent hereunder by Landlord following the occurrence of any default, whether or not known to Landlord, shall not be deemed a waiver of any such default, except only a default in the payment of the rent so accepted.
19.5 EFFORTS TO RELET. For the purposes of this ARTICLE 19, Tenant’s right to possession shall not be deemed to have been terminated by efforts of Landlord to relet the Premises, by its acts of maintenance or preservation with respect to the Premises, or by appointment of a receiver
39
to protect Landlord’s interests hereunder. The foregoing enumeration is not exhaustive, but merely illustrative of acts which may be performed by Landlord without terminating Tenant’s right to possession.
ARTICLE 20
COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT
Landlord covenants that Tenant, on paying the Rent, charges for services and other payments herein reserved and on keeping, observing and performing all the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept, observed and performed, shall, during the Lease Term, peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises subject to the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements hereof without interference by any persons lawfully claiming by or through Landlord. The foregoing covenant is in lieu of any other covenant express or implied.
ARTICLE 21
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Concurrent with the full execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a security deposit (the “SECURITY DEPOSIT”) in the amount set forth in Section 10 of the Summary. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant during the Lease Term. The Security Deposit shall not be mortgaged, assigned or encumbered in any manner whatsoever by either party without the prior written consent of the other. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provisions of this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any amount that Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount, and Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a default under this Lease. The use, application or retention of the Security Deposit, or any portion thereof, by Landlord shall not (a) prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided by this Lease or by law, it being intended that Landlord shall not first be required to proceed against the Security Deposit, nor (b) operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer or mortgage its interest in the Real Property and the Building and in this Lease and Tenant agrees that in the event of any such transfer or mortgage, Landlord shall have the right to transfer or assign the Security Deposit to the transferee or mortgagee. Upon such transfer or assignment of the Security Deposit, provided that the transferee acknowledges receipt of the Security Deposit, Landlord shall thereby be released by Tenant from all liability or obligation for the return of such Security Deposit and Tenant shall took solely to such transferee or mortgagee for the return of the Security Deposit. Tenant shall earn interest on the unapplied Security Deposit at the rate of 6% per annum; provided that, at Landlord’s option, Landlord may elect (which election must be made, if at all, within thirty (30) business days after Landlord’s receipt of the Security Deposit) to deposit the Security Deposit in a bank and account mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, in which case the Security Deposit shall earn interest at the rate earned in such account. Within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, any unapplied portion of the Security Deposit plus accrued interest shall be returned to Tenant.

23.2 MULTI-TENANT FLOOR TENANTS. If other tenants occupy space on the floor on which the Premises is located, Tenant’s identifying signage shall be provided by Landlord, at Tenant’s cost, and such signage shall be comparable to that used by Landlord for other similar floors In the Building and shall comply with Landlord’s Building standard signage program, or, if no such program exists, shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Landlord.

23.4 BUILDING TOP SIGN AGE. Subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit G. Tenant shall be entitled to design and install, at Tenant’s sole cost (subject to the Tenant Improvement Allowance), signage identifying Tenant at the top of the exterior of the Building, with such signs to be located on the north end of each of the eastern and western faces of the Building (the “BUILDING TOP SIGN AGE”) and signage identifying Tenant (the “MONUMENT SIGN AGE”) on each of two (2) of the Building’s seven (7) existing monument signs. The first such sign shall face Santa ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Boulevard and be located on the existing monument, situated on the planter, which is closest to the corner of Santa ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Boulevard and Century Park East. The second sign shall face Century Park East and be located on the existing monument, situated on the planter, which is the center monument sign of the three (3) monument signs, situated on the planter, which face Century Park East.

ARTICLE 24
ARBITRATION
24.1 SUBMITTALS TO ARBITRATION. The parties agree that disputes between Landlord and Tenant arising under the terms of SECTIONS 1.3 (as to measurement of space not included in initial Premises), 6.3, or 7.2, ARTICLES 4 (following Tenant’s “Initial Audit,” as that term is defined in SECTION 4.7, above), 11 or 14, or the Tenant Work Letter shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE 24 and, therefore, this ARTICLE 24 shall be the sole and exclusive method, means and procedure to resolve each such dispute. The parties hereby irrevocably waive any and all rights to the contrary and shall at all times conduct themselves in strict, full, complete and timely accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE 24 and all attempts to circumvent the terms of this ARTICLE 24 shall be absolutely null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever. As to any matter submitted to arbitration (except with respect to the payment of money) to determine whether a matter would, with the passage of time, constitute a default, such passage of time shall not commence to run until any such affirmative arbitrated determination, as long as it is simultaneously determined in such arbitration that the challenge of such matter as a potential Tenant default was made in good faith. As to any matter submitted to arbitration with respect to the payment of money, to determine whether a matter would, with the passage of time, constitute a default, such passage of time shall not commence to run in the event that the party which is obligated to make the payment does in fact make the payment to the other party. Such payment can be made “under protest,” which shall occur when such payment is accompanied by a good faith notice stating the reasons that the party has elected to make a payment under protest. Such protest will be deemed waived unless the subject matter identified in the protest is submitted to arbitration as set forth in this ARTICLE 24.
24.2 JAMS. Any dispute to be arbitrated pursuant to the provisions of this Article 24 shall be determined by binding arbitration before a retired judge of the Superior Court of the State of California (the “ARBITRATOR”) under the auspices of Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”). Such arbitration shall be initiated by the parties, or either of them, within ten (10) days after either party sends written notice (the “ARBITRATION NOTICE”) of a demand to arbitrate by registered or certified mail to the other party and to JAMS. The Arbitration Notice shall contain a description of the subject matter of the arbitration, the dispute with respect thereto, the amount involved, if any, and the remedy or determination sought. The parties may agree on a retired judge from the JAMS panel. If they are unable to promptly agree, JAMS will provide a list of three available judges and each party may strike one. The remaining judge (or if there are two, the one selected by JAMS) will serve as the Arbitrator. In the event that JAMS shall no longer exist or if JAMS fails or refuses to accept submission of such dispute, then the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the AAA’s commercial arbitration rules then in effect.
24.3 ARBITRATION PROCEDURE.
24.3.1 PRE-DECISION ACTIONS. The Arbitrator shall schedule a pre-hearing conference to resolve procedural matters, arrange for the exchange of information, obtain stipulations, and narrow the issues. The parties will submit proposed discovery schedules to the Arbitrator at the pre-hearing conference. The scope and duration of discovery will be within the sole discretion of the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator shall have the discretion to order a pre-hearing exchange of information by the parties, including, without limitation, production of requested documents, exchange of summaries of testimony of proposed witnesses, and examination by deposition of parties and third-party witnesses. This discretion shall be exercised in favor of discovery reasonable under the circumstances. Discovery as reasonably necessary shall be permitted, the type and quantity therof to be agreed upon by the parties, or if the parties fail to so agree, by the Arbitrator.
24.3.2 THE DECISION The arbitration shall be conducted in Los Angeles, California. Any party may be represented by counsel or other authorized representative. In rendering a decision(s), the Arbitrator shall determine the rights and obligations of the parties according to the substantive procedural laws of the State of California and the terms and provisions of this Lease. The Arbitrator’s decision shall be based on the evidence introduced at the hearing, including all logical and reasonable inferences therefrom. The Arbitrator may make
42
any determination, and/or grant any remedy or relief that is just and equitable with respect to the subject dispute. The decision must be based on, and accompanied by, a written statement of decision explaining the factual and legal basis for the decision as to each of the principal controverted issues. The decision shall be conclusive and binding, and it may thereafter be confirmed as a judgment by the Superior Court of the State of California, subject only to challenge on the grounds set forth in the California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1286.2. The validity and enforceability of the Arbitrator’s decision is to be determined exclusively by the California courts pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The Arbitrator may award costs, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, and expert and witness costs, to the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the Arbitrator in his discretion. The Arbitrator’s fees and costs shall be paid by the non-prevailing party as determined by the Arbitrator in his discretion. A party shall be determined by the Arbitrator to be the prevailing party if its proposal for the resolution of dispute is the closer to that adopted by the Arbitrator.
ARTICLE 25
LATE CHARGES
Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent or other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which is extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of notice from Landlord that said amount is overdue, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to $400; provided, however, that if such failure of receipt within such time occurs three (3) or more times in any twelve (12) month period, then for such third and any subsequent occurrence in such twelve (12) month period the late charge shall be the greater of $1,000 or two percent (2%) of the amount due. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment of Rent by Tenant. Acceptance of such late charge by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord’s remedies in any manner. In addition to the late charge described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid within five (5) days after the date they are due shall thereafter bear interest (commencing as of the date due notwithstanding the foregoing five (5) day grace period) until paid at the Interest Rate.
ARTICLE 26
LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT; PAYMENTS BY TENANT
26.1 LANDLORD’S CURE. All covenants and agreements to be kept or performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease. If Tenant shall fail to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, within a reasonable time after such performance is required by the terms of this Lease (and after the expiration of any applicable cure period provided for herein), Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, after reasonable prior notice to Tenant (except in the event of an emergency, Landlord shall only give notice when and if feasible under the circumstances), make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant’s part without waiving its right based upon any default of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligations hereunder.
26.2 TENANT’S REIMBURSEMENT. Except as may be specifically provided to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within ten (10) days after delivery by Landlord to Tenant of statements therefor; sums equal to expenditures reasonably made and obligations incurred by Landlord in connection with the remedying by Landlord of Tenant’s defaults pursuant to the provisions of SECTION 26.1. Tenant’s obligations under this SECTION 26.2 shall survive expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term.

ENTRY BY LANDLORD
Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times, and with reasonable frequency, upon reasonable notice to the Tenant, and in compliance with all other terms of this Lease, to enter the Premises to (i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or ground or underlying lessors, or during the last twelve (12) months of the initial Lease Term (or Option Term, as applicable), to prospective tenants; (iii) post notices of nonresponsibility or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the Building if necessary to comply with current building codes or other applicable laws, or for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this ARTICLE 27, Landlord may enter the Premises at any time to (A) perform services required of Landlord; (B) take possession due to any breach of this Lease in the manner provided herein; and (C) perform any covenants of Tenant which Tenant falls to perform. Landlord may make any such entries without the abatement of Rent (except as otherwise provided herein) and may take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes; provided, however, that any such entry shall be accomplished as expeditiously as reasonably possible and in a manner so as to cause as little interference to Tenant as reasonably possible. Tenant hereby waives any claims for any injuries or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant. In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises by Landlord in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises.
ARTICLE 28
TENANT PARKING
28.1 PARKING. Tenant shall be entitled to rent parking passes on a monthly basis throughout the Lease Term up to the amount set forth in SECTION 11 of the Summary, which parking passes shall pertain to the On-site Parking Area. Tenant shall be required to rent, at a minimum, one (1) pass per one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of the Premises on a monthly basis throughout the Lease Term. At Tenant’s option, up to ten (10) of such parking passes shall be reserved parking passes located within the “Special Valet” parking area of the Main Building Parking Area as that area is set forth in Exhibit M attached hereto. In addition, also at Tenant’s option, up to twenty-five (25) of the parking passes shall be designated “Valet” parking passes for parking on Level P-1 of the Main Building Parking Area. The remainder of such parking passes shall provide for non-reserved parking in the Main Building Parking Area and/or Supplemental Parking Area, as Landlord may designate from time to time to Tenant. Tenant shall be entitled to vary the number of parking passes rented by Tenant (up to the maximum amount set forth in SECTION 11 of the Summary but in any event no less than the minimum amount set forth in this ARTICLE 28) upon at least thirty (30) days notice to Landlord. Tenant shall pay to Landlord for automobile parking passes on a monthly basis the prevailing rate charged for such parking passes; provided, however, that during the first three (3) Lease Years, the monthly rates for such parking passes, inclusive of all taxes, shall not exceed, for reserved parking passes, $250.00; for “Special Valet” and “Valet” parking passes, $160.00; and for unreserved parking passes, $110.00. Commencing in the fourth (4th) Lease Year such rates may be subject to annual adjustment, but in no event shall such rates be greater than the product of (i) the applicable rate during the prior Lease Year, and (ii) 1.05. Tenant shall instruct its employees to abide by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the On-site Parking Area. Landlord specifically reserves the right to reasonably change the size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the On-site Parking Area at any time and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease, from time to time, temporarily close-off or restrict access to the On-site Parking Area for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements so long as Landlord provides adequate substitute parking reasonably acceptable to Tenant. Landlord may delegate its
44
responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord. The parking passes rented by Tenant pursuant to this Article 28 are provided to Tenant solely for use by Tenant’s own personnel and such passes may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord’s prior approval; provided, however, Tenant may transfer a reasonable allocation of such spaces to an assignee or subtenant permitted pursuant to Article 14 of this Lease. Landlord shall provide adequate visitor parking for Tenant’s visitors, subject to their payment of an hourly rate which shall not exceed the hourly rate generally charged in Comparable Buildings. Landlord shall provide Tenant with parking validations for such visitors at a rate not to exceed ninety percent (90%) of Landlord’s prevailing rate for such validations.
28.2 PARKING CREDIT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 28. 1, above, Landlord hereby grants Tenant a credit for the parking charges first due Landlord under the terms of this Lease, which credit shall be in the amount of $31,321.28.
ARTICLE 29
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
29.1 TERMS. The necessary grammatical changes required to make the provisions hereof apply either to corporations or partnerships or individuals, men or women, as the case may require, shall in all cases be assumed as though in each case fully expressed.
29.2 BINDING EFFECT. Each of the provisions of this Lease shall extend to and shall, as the case may require, bind or inure to the benefit not only of Landlord and of Tenant, but also of their respective successors or assigns, provided this clause shall not permit any assignment by Tenant contrary to the provisions of Article 14 of this Lease.
29.3 NO AIR RIGHTS. No rights to any view or to light or air over any property, whether belonging to Landlord or any other person, are granted to Tenant by this Lease.

29.4 MODIFICATION OF LEASE. Should any current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor for the Building require a modification or modifications of this Lease, which modification or modifications will not cause an increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way adversely change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, or diminish the obligations of Landlord hereunder, then and in such event, Tenant agrees that this Lease may be so modified and agrees to execute whatever documents are required therefor and deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) days following the request therefor.
