FIRST RIDER TO LEASE
THIS IS A FIRST RIDER TO A LEASE (the "Lease") entered into simultaneously
herewith between ▇▇▇▇ INVESTMENTS, a California partnership ("Landlord") and
PARAMARK ENTERPRISES, INC., a Delaware corporation.
This Rider amends and supplements the Lease, more particularly as follows:
1. COMMENCEMENT DATE AND POSSESSION DATE. Section 2.3 of the Lease is
modified to provide that the Commencement Date shall be May 1, 1998 (meaning
that this shall be the date on which Tenant's obligation to pay rent shall
commence) but the Tenant shall be given possession of the Premises on or before
April 1, 1998. If Tenant is given possession of the Premises after April 1, 1998
then the Commencement Date and the Initial Expiration Date shall be postponed by
the number of days that Tenant's possession of the Premises was delayed beyond
April 1, 1998.
2. INITIAL EXPIRATION DATE. The Initial Expiration Date will be April 30,
2001.
3. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Section 10.2 of the Lease is modified to provide
that if the "Compliance with Laws" as described therein requires structural work
to the shell of the Premises, then such compliance shall be at Landlord's sole
cost and expense.
4. TENANT'S MAINTENANCE DUTIES. Section 13.1 is modified to provide that
Tenant shall not be responsible for the maintenance of the exterior of the
Premises, other than maintenance which is required due to Tenant's (or its
employees or invitee's ) negligence or misconduct.
5. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Section 33 is modified to provide that Landlord
indemnifies Tenant against all Environmental Claims arising out of matters
occurring prior to Tenant's taking possession of the Premises.
6. EARLY TERMINATION. Tenant shall have a one time right to terminate the
Lease, effective March 31, 1999 (the "Early Termination"). Such Early
Termination right may only be exercised by Tenant providing Landlord with no
less than sixty (60) days prior irrevocable written notice, which notice will
only be valid if accompanied by a cashier's check drawn on a local bank (or
other immediately available funds) in an amount equal to six (6) months of Base
Monthly Rent (the "Termination Fee"), which Termination Fee will be deemed
earned upon receipt by Landlord and non-refundable. If Tenant does not timely
and properly exercise its right to Early Termination as provided in this
Paragraph, then such right will lapse and thereafter not be
1
capable of being exercised--time expressly being of the essence hereof. If
Tenant timely and properly exercises its right to Early Termination then the
Early Termination Date shall be deemed to be the Expiration Date pursuant to the
Lease.
7. CAPITALIZED TERMS. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this
Rider shall have the same meaning as ascribed to them in the Lease.
8. CONFLICT. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Rider
and the terms of the Lease then this Rider shall be controlling.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have executed this First Rider to Lease
effective as of the date of the execution of the Lease.

4. Extension Term. Tenant is hereby granted the right to extend the Term
for up to one period of 24 months each (each an Extension Term pursuant to
Paragraph 2.7, above, on all of the terms, provisions, and conditions of this
Lease, provided that (i) Tenant must notify Landlord in writing (the "Tenant
Election Notice"), at least six months prior to the Initial Expiration Date or
the then applicable Extension Expiration Date (whichever is applicable), of
Tenant's election to extend, and (ii) at the time Landlord receives such Tenant
Election Notice, and upon the day immediately preceding the first day of such
Extension Term, Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease nor shall any
event have occurred which by the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both,
would constitute a default under this Lease (unless Landlord elects in writing
to waive such default, which waiver shall be in Landlord's sole discretion). If
the Term is so extended, then on the first day of each such Extension Term, and
for the period until the next increase in the Base Monthly Rent pursuant to this
Lease, the Base Monthly Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to the
greater of (a) the initial Base Monthly Rent under this Lease multiplied by a
fraction whose numerator is the latest Index available as of the day immediately
preceding such Extension Term and whose denominator is the latest Index
available as of the Commencement Date, (b) the Base Monthly Rent increased in
accordance with Paragraph 8 of this Lease entitled "Rent" as if such Initial
Expiration Date or Extension Expiration Date is an Adjustment Date, or (c) the
then-current fair market rent for the Premises, based upon the prevailing fair
market rent for shopping Projects similar in type and size to the Project (the
"Fair Market Rent"), as determined by agreement between Landlord and Tenant, or
if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rent within 30
days after Landlord's receipt of the Tenant Election Notice, then the Fair
Market Rent shall be determined in accordance with the following appraisal
procedure: Within 40 days after Landlord's receipt of the Tenant Election
Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint a qualified M.A.I. real estate
appraiser with at least five years full-time commercial real estate appraisal
experience in the area in which the Premises are located. If either Landlord or
Tenant does not appoint such an appraiser within such period, then the sole
appraiser appointed shall determine the Fair Market Rent. Such two appraisers
appointed shall meet promptly and attempt to determine the Fair Market Rent. If
such two appraisers are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rent within 30 days
after the second such appraiser was appointed, then such two appraisers shall
appoint a third appraiser within ten days after the expiration of such 30-day
period. If the two appraisers are unable to agree within such ten-day period on
the appointment of a third appraiser, then such two appraisers shall request
that such third appraiser be appointed by the American Arbitration Association,
or its successor, or if such association is not then in existence and has no
successor, then by a similar entity selected by Landlord. Such third appraiser
must meet the qualifications set forth above for the first two appraisers and
shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either
Landlord or Tenant. Within 30 days after the
2
9. Condition During Periods of Non-Use. During any period of time in which
Tenant is not continuously using and occupying the Premises, Tenant shall take
such measures as may be necessary or desirable, in Landlord's reasonable
opinion, to secure the Premises from break-ins and use by unauthorized persons,
to minimize the appearance of non-use, and to otherwise maintain the interior
and exterior portions of Tenant's Premises, including all windows and doors, in
first class condition and consistent with the manner in which the Premises were
to be maintained during Tenant's occupancy.
10. Use of Premises and Common Area.
10.1. Permitted Use of Premises. Tenant may use the Premises for the
Permitted Use and for no other use without Landlord's consent. Any change in the
Permitted Use shall require Landlord's prior written consent, which consent will
not unreasonably be withheld.
10.2. Compliance With Laws. Tenant shall comply with all laws
concerning the Premises and/or Tenant's use of the Premises, including, without
limitation, the obligation, at Tenant's sole cost, to alter, maintain, and
restore the Premises in compliance with all applicable laws, even if such laws
are enacted after the date of this Lease, even if compliance entails costs to
Tenant of a substantial nature. Such obligation to comply with laws shall
include without limitation compliance with Title III of the Americans With
Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12181 et seq.) (the "ADA"). If Tenant's use
of the Premises results in the need for modifications or alterations to any
portion of the Common Area or the Project in order to comply with the ADA, then
Tenant shall additionally be responsible for the cost of such modifications and
alterations. Any work performed by Tenant pursuant to this Paragraph 10.2 will
be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 37, below, entitled "Alterations".
10.3. Use of Common Area. Tenant's use of the Common Area shall at all
times comply with the provisions of all rules and regulations regarding such use
as Landlord may from time to time adopt including those set forth on attached
Exhibit "E" entitled "Rules". In no event shall the rights granted to Tenant to
use the Common Area include the right to store any property in the Common Area,
whether temporarily or permanently. Any property stored (whether temporarily or
permanently) in the Common Area may be removed by Landlord and disposed of, and
the cost of such removal and disposal shall be payable by Tenant upon demand.
Additionally, in no event shall Tenant use any portion of the Common Area for
loading, unloading, or parking, except in those areas specifically designated by
Landlord for such purposes, nor for any sidewalk sale or similar commercial
purpose.
10.4. General Covenants and Limitations on Use. Tenant shall not do,
bring, or keep anything in or about the Premises that will cause a cancellation
of any insurance covering the Premises. If the rate of any insurance carried by
Landlord is increased as a result of Tenant's use, Tenant shall pay to Landlord,
within ten days after Landlord delivers to Tenant a notice of such increase, the
amount of such increase. Furthermore, Tenant covenants and agrees that no
noxious or offensive activity shall be carried on, in or upon the Premises nor
shall anything be done or kept in the Premises which may be or become a public
nuisance or which may cause embarrassment, disturbance, or annoyance to others
in the Project, or on adjacent or nearby property. To that end, Tenant
additionally covenants and agrees that no light shall be emitted from the
Premises which is unreasonably bright or causes unreasonable glare; no sounds
shall be emitted from the Premises which are unreasonably loud or annoying; and
no odor shall be emitted from the Premises which is or might be noxious or
offensive to others in the Project or on adjacent or near-by property. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, all unsightly equipment, objects, and
conditions shall be kept enclosed within the Premises and screened from view; no
refuse, scraps, debris, garbage, trash, bulk materials, or waste shall be kept,
stored, or allowed to accumulate except as may be properly enclosed within the
Premises; the Premises shall not be used for sleeping or washing clothes, nor
for the preparation, manufacture, or mixing of anything that might emit any odor
or objectionable noises or lights onto the Project or nearby properties
(however, baking odors will not be deemed objectionable); and all pipes, wires,
poles, antennas, and other facilities for utilities or the transmission or
reception of audio or visual signals shall be kept and maintained enclosed
within the Premises. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the timely removal
of all refuse, scraps, debris, garbage, trash, bulk materials, or waste from the
Premises and the deposit thereof in the trash containers or dumpsters located
adjacent to the Premises. Further, Tenant shall not keep or permit to be kept
any bicycle, motorcycle, or other vehicle, nor any animal (excluding seeing-eye
dogs), bird, reptile, or other exotic creature in the Premises unless Tenant
operates a bona fide pet store, pet grooming facility, or other veterinary
medicine clinic, hospital, and/or related animal care facility under direct
operation and supervision of a State Licensed Veterinarian, and such use has
been specifically approved in writing by Landlord, which consent may be withheld
in Landlord's sole discretion. Neither Tenant nor Tenant's Invitees shall do
anything that will cause damage or waste to the Project. Neither the floor nor
any other portion of the Premises shall be overloaded. No machinery, apparatus,
or other appliance shall be used or operated in or on the Premises that will in
any manner injure, vibrate, or shake all or any part of the Project. In the
event of any breach of this Paragraph 10 by Tenant or Tenant's Invitees,
Landlord, at its election, may pay the cost of correcting such breach and Tenant
shall immediately, upon demand, reimburse Landlord for the cost thereof, plus a
supervisory fee in the amount of 15 percent of such cost.
11. Lease Expenses. Landlord intends to deliver to Tenant, on or about the
Commencement Date and prior to the commencement of each calendar year during the
Term, a written statement ("Estimated Statement") setting forth Landlord's
estimate of the Lease Expenses allocable to the calendar year during which the
Commencement Date occurs or such ensuing calendar year, whichever is applicable,
and "Tenant's Pro Rata Share" of such Lease Expenses. Landlord may, at its
option, during any calendar year, deliver to Tenant a revised Estimated
Statement, revising Landlord's estimate of the Lease Expenses, in accordance
with Landlord's most current estimate. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the
Commencement Date and on the first day of each month during the Term, as
Additional Rent, an amount ("Tenant's Monthly Payment") equal to one-twelfth
(or, during the first calendar year following the Commencement Date, a fraction,
the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is the number of
calendar months during such calendar year following the Commencement Date) of
Tenant's Pro Rata Share of the Lease Expenses, as estimated by Landlord in the
most recently delivered Estimated Statement. Within approximately 90 days after
the end of each calendar year during the Term, Landlord intends to deliver to
Tenant a written statement ("Actual Statement") setting forth the actual Lease
Expenses allocable to the preceding calendar year and back-up invoices if
requested by Tenant. Tenant's failure to object to Landlord regarding the
contents of an Actual Statement, in writing, within 30 days after delivery to
Tenant of such Actual Statement, shall constitute Tenant's absolute and final
acceptance and approval of the Actual Statement. If the sum of Tenant's Monthly
Payments actually paid by Tenant during any calendar year exceeds Tenant's Pro
Rata Share of the actual Lease Expenses allocable to such calendar year, then
such excess will be credited against future Tenant's Monthly Payments, unless
such calendar year was the calendar year during which the Expiration Date occurs
(the "Last Calendar Year"), in which event either (i) such excess shall be
4
credited against any monetary default of Tenant under this Lease, or (ii) if
Tenant is not in default under this Lease, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant
such excess. If the sum of Tenant's Monthly Payments actually paid by Tenant
during any calendar year is less than Tenant's Pro Rata Share of the actual
Lease Expenses allocable to such calendar year, then Tenant shall, within 30
days of delivery of the Actual Statement, pay to Landlord the amount of such
deficiency. Landlord's delay in delivering any Estimated Statement or Actual
Statement will not release Tenant of its obligation to pay any Tenant's Monthly
Payment or any such excess upon receipt of the Estimated Statement or the Actual
Statement, as the case may be. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Tenant's
Pro Rata Share" will mean and refer to the portion of the Lease Expenses payable
by Tenant. Tenant's Pro Rata Share will be originally calculated as of the
Commencement Date and will be re-calculated as of each January 1 during the Term
as the fractional portion of the total Lease Expenses determined by multiplying
such Lease Expenses by a fraction, the numerator of which is the rentable square
footage of the Premises, and the denominator of which is the total aggregate
rentable square footage of the Project. In the event the rentable square footage
in the Project changes from time to time due to the addition or removal of
buildings, such change will not result in a recalculation of Tenant's Pro Rata
Share until the January 1 next following such occurrence, as if such change had
not taken place until such following January 1. The references in this paragraph
to the actual Lease Expenses allocable to a calendar year, shall include (i) if
such calendar year is the calendar year during which the Commencement Date
occurs, the actual Lease Expenses allocable to the portion of such calendar year
following the Commencement Date, and (ii) if such calendar year is the Last
Calendar Year, the actual Lease Expenses allocable to the portion of the Last
Calendar Year prior to the Expiration Date.
12. Utilities and Services. Tenant shall make all arrangements for and pay
the cost of all utilities and services (including, without limitation, their
connection charges and taxes thereon) furnished to the Premises or used by
Tenant, including, without limitation, electricity, water, heating, ventilating,
air-conditioning, oil, steam for heating, sewer, gas, telephone, communication
services, trash collection and removal, janitorial, cleaning, and window
washing, if applicable. Landlord may, at its election, furnish to the Premises
any of the utilities and services set forth in the preceding sentence, in which
event Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord's cost of furnishing such
utilities and services. Landlord shall not be liable for failure to furnish any
utilities or services to the Premises when such failure results from causes
beyond Landlord's reasonable control. If Landlord constructs new or additional
utility facilities, including, without limitation, wiring, plumbing, conduits,
and/or mains, resulting from Tenant's changed or increased utility requirements,
Tenant shall on demand promptly pay to Landlord the total cost of such items.
The discontinuance of any utilities or services, including, without limitation,
Landlord's discontinuance or failure to provide any of the utilities or services
furnished by Landlord to the Premises, shall neither be deemed an actual or
constructive eviction, nor release Tenant from its obligations under this Lease
including, without limitation, Tenant's obligation to pay Rental. If any
governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Project imposes mandatory
controls, or suggests voluntary guidelines applicable to the Project, relating
to the use or conservation of water, gas, electricity, power, or the reduction
of automobile emissions, Landlord, at its sole discretion, may comply with such
mandatory controls or voluntary guidelines and, accordingly, require Tenant to
so comply. Landlord shall not be liable for damages to persons or property for
any such reduction, nor shall such reduction in any way be construed as a
partial eviction of Tenant, cause an abatement of rent (unless such reduction is
occasioned by Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct), or operate to
release Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease.
13. General Maintenance Obligations.
13.1. Tenant's Duties. Tenant shall at its sole cost (i) maintain,
repair, replace, and repaint, all in first class condition, all portions of the
Premises (except those portions of the Premises to be maintained by Landlord as
expressly set forth below), (ii) arrange for the removal of trash from the
Premises, (iii) furnish reasonable janitorial services within the Premises, (iv)
maintain and repair any plate-glass windows appurtenant to the Premises and all
interior and exterior doors, including roll-up doors, (v) maintain and repair
all telephone lines and wiring and all wiring, fixtures, lamps, and tubes
serving the interior lighting within the Premises, and (vi) maintain all grease
traps serving the Premises, using a professional cleaning company on a schedule
acceptable to Landlord. Tenant shall provide Landlord with current copies of
such cleaning contracts throughout the Term. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in Paragraph 13.2, below, entitled "Landlord's Duties", Tenant shall
additionally repair, replace, and be liable for any damage to the Project
resulting from the acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant's Invitees, including,
without limitation, any damage to the roof or damage relating to a roof
penetration caused by Tenant or Tenant's Invitees. If Tenant fails to maintain,
repair, replace, or repaint any portion of the Premises as provided above, or if
Tenant or Tenant's Invitees damage any portion of the Project, then Landlord
may, at its election, maintain, repair, replace, or repaint any such portion of
the Premises or the Project and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for
Landlord's actual cost thereof, plus a supervisory fee in the amount of 15
percent of such actual cost. Landlord, at Landlord's sole discretion, may
require Tenant to use specific contractors or construction/repair techniques for
the purpose of maintaining warranties or the integrity of the Premises or the
Project.
13.2. Landlord's Duties. Landlord shall maintain and repair only the
Common Area and the structural parts of the buildings within the Project, which
are only the foundations, exterior walls (excluding glass and doors), and the
structural and waterproofing membranes portions of the roof (excluding
skylights) along with those portions of any utility lines, pipes, and conduits
serving the Project as a whole (as opposed to those lines, pipes, and conduits
exclusively serving the Premises, which will be Tenant's responsibility pursuant
to Paragraph 13.1, above). Landlord's failure to perform its obligations set
forth in the preceding sentence will not release Tenant of its obligations under
this Lease, including, without limitation, Tenant's obligation to pay Rental.
Tenant waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1942 (or any
successor statute), and any similar principals of law with respect to Landlord's
obligations for tenantability of the Premises and Tenant's right to make repairs
and deduct the expense of such repairs from rent.
14. Pest Control. Tenant shall, at its sole cost, maintain a pest and
termite control contract with a reputable company with respect to the Premises,
which contract shall provide for inspection and treatment, if necessary, of not
less than four times per year. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish
Landlord with a copy of such pest and termite control contract.
15. HVAC. Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost, (i) operate, maintain,
repair, and replace the heating, air-conditioning and ventilation system and
machinery that serve the Premises, and (ii) maintain a service agreement with
respect to such heating, air-conditioning and ventilation system and machinery,
reasonably acceptable to Landlord (a copy of which Tenant shall furnish to
Landlord promptly upon the execution of this Lease). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event such systems and machinery cannot be repaired and
require replacement, then the cost of such replacement will be split between
Landlord and Tenant, with Tenant paying the fractional portion thereof
(including installation) where the numerator of such fraction is the remaining
Term of this Lease (including extensions), and the denominator is the estimated
useful life of such equipment (determined in accordance with generally-accepted
accounting principles). Tenant shall make all
5
arrangements for and pay the cost of all utilities and services with respect to
the heating and air-conditioning unit that serves the Premises, including,
without limitation, electricity to operate such heating and air-conditioning
unit.
16. Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay before delinquency all taxes,
assessments, license fees, and other charges that are levied or assessed
against, or based upon the value of, Tenant's Personal Property ("Personal
Property Taxes"). On demand by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with
satisfactory evidence of such payments. If any such Personal Property Taxes are
levied against Landlord or Landlord's property, or if the assessed value of the
Premises is increased by the inclusion of a value placed on Tenant's Personal
Property, and if Landlord pays such Personal Property Taxes or any taxes based
on the increased assessments caused by Tenant's Personal Property, then Tenant,
on demand, shall immediately reimburse Landlord for the sum of such Personal
Property Taxes so levied against Landlord, or the proportion of taxes resulting
from such increase in Landlord's assessment. Landlord may, at its election, pay
such Personal Property Taxes or such proportion, and receive such reimbursement,
regardless of the validity of the levy.
17. Net Lease. This Lease is intended to be a completely "net lease" and,
except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Tenant shall have sole
responsibility for the care, maintenance, and management of the Premises as
though Tenant were the owner of the Premises. Tenant shall be liable for and
bear all of the costs of the Premises, except as expressly provided to the
contrary in this Lease.
18. Common Area. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use the
Common Area. Landlord shall manage, repair, operate, and maintain the Common
Area; however, Landlord's failure to perform its obligations set forth in the
preceding sentence shall not release Tenant of its obligations under this Lease,
including, without limitation, Tenant's obligation to pay Rental. Landlord may,
at its election, (i) close any of the Common Area to the minimum extent required
in the opinion of Landlord's legal counsel to prevent a dedication of any of the
Common Area or the accrual of any rights of any person or of the public to the
Common Area, (ii) close temporarily any of the Common Area for maintenance
purposes, (iii) designate other property outside the boundaries of the Real
Property to become part of the Common Area, and/or (iv) make any changes to the

improvements, and changes in the location of driveways, entrances, exits,

does not include the cost of any security measures for any portion of the Real
Property, (ii) that Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any such
security measures, and (iii) that Landlord has made no representation to Tenant
regarding the safety or security of the Real Property. If Landlord provides any
security measures at any time, then Landlord shall not be obligated to continue
providing such security measures and Landlord shall not be obligated to provide
such security measures with any particular standard of care. Tenant assumes all
responsibility for the security and safety of Tenant and/or Tenant's Invitees.
Tenant releases Landlord from all claims for damage, loss or injury to Tenant,
Tenant's Invitees, and/or to the personal property of Tenant and/or of Tenant's
Invitees, even if such damage, loss or injury is caused by or results from the
criminal or negligent acts of third parties. Landlord shall have no duty to warn
Tenant of any criminal acts or dangerous conduct that has occurred in or near
the Premises, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such crimes or conduct.
20. Signs. Tenant shall not place, construct, or maintain any sign,

unreasonably withheld. Any sign that Tenant is permitted by Landlord to place,
construct, or maintain shall comply with Landlord's sign criteria applicable to
Landlord's other tenants in the Project, including, without limitation, criteria
relating to size, color, shape, graphics and location (collectively, the "Sign
Criteria"), and shall comply with any applicable laws, ordinances, rules or
regulations, and Tenant shall obtain any approval required by such laws.
Landlord makes no representation with respect to Tenant's ability to obtain such
approval. Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost, make any changes to any sign,
advertisement, awning, banner or other exterior decoration in the Premises or on
the Project as required by any new or revised applicable laws, ordinances, rules
or regulations, or any changes in the Sign Criteria.
21. Parking. Subject to the remaining provisions of this paragraph, as long
as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, Landlord grants to Tenant the
right to the non-exclusive use of the parking area adjacent to and serving the
Project (the "Parking Area"). Tenant's use of the Parking Area shall be subject
to such rules as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, adopt from time to time
with respect to the Parking Area, including, without limitation, (i) rules
providing for the payment of charges or fees by users of the Parking Area
(including, without limitation, Tenant) in order to reimburse Landlord for the
expense of a parking attendant and/or an automated parking system, (ii) rules
designed to maintain the availability of accessible parking spaces for clients,
guests, and invitees of tenants of the Project, (iii) rules limiting tenants of
the Project (including, without limitation, Tenant) to the use of certain
parking spaces or certain portions of the Parking Area (the "Restricted Parking
Area"), (iv) rules limiting each tenant of the Project (including, without
limitation, Tenant) to the use of a restricted number of parking spaces such
that the parking spaces in the Restricted Parking Area shall be allocated fairly
to all the tenants of the Project (including, without limitation, Tenant), and
(v) rules designating a particular area as the "employee parking area", in which
event Tenant shall cause its employees to exclusively park in such employee
parking area. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph,
Landlord may, at its election, construct upon or otherwise alter in any manner
the Parking Area provided that Landlord makes available to Tenant elsewhere on
the Land, or within a reasonable distance from the Land, legally required
amounts of parking.
22. Rules. Tenant and Tenant's Invitees shall observe faithfully and comply
strictly with the rules that are set forth on attached Exhibit "E" entitled
"Rules" and such other reasonable rules as Landlord may from time to time adopt
for the Premises. Landlord shall have no duty or obligation to enforce any rule
against any other tenant, and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for
violation of any rule by any other tenant, or any other tenant's agents,
employees, officers, independent contractors, customers, invitees, visitors, or
licensees.
23. Early Access Insurance. At any time prior to the Commencement Date that
Tenant is making any Alterations to the Premises, (i) Tenant shall, at Tenant's
sole cost, maintain (a) "Builder's Risk" insurance with respect to the Premises,
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and (b) all of the insurance to be
maintained by Tenant during the Term, including, without limitation, public
liability and property damage insurance, fire and extended coverage insurance,
boiler and machinery insurance and workers' compensation insurance, (ii) the
provisions of Paragraph 30 of this Lease entitled "Indemnity and Exemption of
Landlord from Liability" shall be applicable, and (iii) the provisions of
Paragraph 12 of this Lease entitled "Utilities and Services" shall be
applicable. Any Alterations pursuant to this paragraph
6
shall be subject to all the provisions of Paragraph 37 of this Lease entitled
"Alterations". Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to permit Tenant to
enter the Premises, or to make any Alterations, prior to the Commencement Date.
24. Plate-Glass Insurance. if any plate-glass windows are located on the
Premises, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, maintain full coverage plate-glass
insurance on the Premises, under which Landlord and any Lender shall be named as
an additional insured.
25. Public Liability and Property Damage Insurance. Tenant shall, at
Tenant's sole cost, maintain public liability and property damage insurance (i)
with a single combined single limit of not less than $2,000,000.00, (ii)
insuring (a) against all liability of Tenant and Tenant's Invitees arising out
of or in connection with Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, and (b)
performance by Tenant of the indemnity provisions set forth in this Lease, (iii)
naming Landlord and any Lender as additional named insureds, (iv) containing
cross-liability endorsements, and (v) which includes products liability
insurance (if Tenant is to sell merchandise or other products derived from the
Premises). Not more frequently than once every two years, if, in the opinion of
Landlord, the amount of such insurance at that time is not adequate, then Tenant
shall increase such insurance as reasonably required by Landlord.
26. Fire and Extended Coverage Insurance. Tenant at its sole cost shall
maintain on Tenant's Alterations and Personal Property a policy of standard fire
and extended coverage insurance, with vandalism and malicious mischief
endorsements, coverage with respect to increased costs due to Project
ordinances, demolition coverage, boiler and machinery insurance, sprinkler
leakage coverage, and business interruption insurance, in each case to the
extent of at least 100 percent of full replacement value, issued in the names of
Landlord, Tenant and Landlord's Lender, as their interests may appear. Such
"full replacement value" shall be determined by the company issuing such policy
at the time the policy is initially obtained. Not more frequently than once
every two years, either Landlord or Tenant may notify the other that it elects
to have such replacement value redetermined by an insurance company. Such
redetermination shall be made promptly and in accordance with the rules and
practices of the Board of Fire Underwriters, or a like board recognized and
generally accepted by the insurance company, and Landlord and Tenant shall be
promptly notified of the results by the company. Such policy shall be promptly
adjusted according to such redetermination.
27. Insurance Generally. If Tenant fails during the Term to maintain any
insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease, then Landlord
may, at its election, arrange for any such insurance, and Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for any premiums for any such insurance within five days after Tenant
receives a copy of the premium notice. If any such premiums are allocable to a
period, a portion of which occurs during the Term and the remainder of which
occurs before or after the Term, then such premiums shall be apportioned between
Landlord and Tenant based upon the number of days during such period that occur
during the Term and the number of days that occur before or after the Term, such
that Tenant pays for the premiums that are allocable to the period during the
Term. Insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease (i) shall
be issued as a primary policy by insurance companies authorized to do business
in the state in which the Premises are located with a Best's Rating of at least
"A" and a Best's Financial Size Category rating of at least "X," as set forth in
the most current edition of "Best's Insurance Reports," or such higher rating as
may be required by any Lender, (ii) shall name Landlord and any Lender as
additional named insureds, (iii) shall constitute "occurrence" based coverage,
without provision for subsequent conversion to "claims" based coverage, and (iv)
shall not be cancelable or subject to reduction of coverage or other
modification except after 30-days' prior written notice to Landlord and any
Lender. Tenant shall, at least 30 days prior to the expiration of each such
policy, furnish Landlord with a renewal or "binder" of such policy. Tenant shall
promptly deliver to Landlord copies of such policy or policies or certificates
evidencing the existence and amounts of such insurance together with evidence of
payment of premiums.
28. Landlord's Insurance. Landlord may, at its election, maintain any of
the following insurance, in such amounts and with such limits as Landlord shall
determine in its reasonable discretion: (i) Public liability and property damage
insurance, and products liability insurance; (ii) Fire and extended coverage

respect to increased costs due to Project ordinances, demolition coverage,
boiler and machinery insurance, sprinkler leakage coverage and business

and (viii) Rental interruption and/or business interruption insurance. Landlord
shall notify Tenant of Landlord's arranging any such insurance. The premiums,
costs, expenses, and deductibles (or similar costs or charges) of and/or with
respect to any such insurance (all of the preceding, collectively, "Insurance
Expenses") shall be included in Lease Expenses.
29. Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant release each other, Tenant's
Invitees, Landlord's Representatives, and Landlord's guests, invitees, customers
and licensees from all claims for damage, loss, or injury to the Real Property,
to Tenant's Personal Property and to the fixtures and Alterations of either
Landlord or Tenant in or on the Real Property to the extent such damage, loss,
or injury is covered by any insurance policies carried by Landlord or Tenant and
in force at the time of such damage. Subject to the remaining provisions of this
paragraph, Landlord and Tenant shall cause each insurance policy obtained by it
pursuant to this Lease to provide that the insurance company waives all right of
recovery by way of subrogation against Landlord or Tenant in connection with any
damage, loss, or injury covered by such policy. If any such policy cannot be
obtained with a waiver of subrogation, or is obtainable only by the payment of
an additional premium charge above that charged by insurance companies issuing
policies without waiver of subrogation, the party undertaking to obtain such
policy (the "Undertaking Party") shall so notify the other party (the "Notified
Party"). The Notified Party shall, within ten days after the giving of such
notice, either obtain such policy from a company that is reasonably satisfactory
to the Undertaking Party and that will issue such policy with a waiver of
subrogation, or agree to pay the additional premium if such policy is obtainable
at additional cost. If such policy cannot be obtained with a waiver of
subrogation or the Notified Party refuses to pay such additional premium, then
the Undertaking Party shall not be required to obtain a waiver of subrogation
with respect to such policy.
30. Indemnity and Exemption of Landlord from Liability. Tenant hereby
indemnifies Landlord against all Claims (as defined below) and all costs,
expenses and attorneys' fees incurred in the defense of any such Claims or any
action or proceeding brought on any of such Claims. For purposes of this Lease,
"Claims" will mean and refer to all liabilities, damages, losses, costs,
expenses, attorneys' fees and claims (except to the extent they result from
Landlord's grossly negligent acts or willful misconduct) arising from or which
seek to impose liability under or because of (i) Tenant's or Tenant's Invitees'
use of the Premises or the Project, (ii) the conduct of Tenant's business, (iii)
any activity, work or things done, permitted, or suffered by Tenant or any of
Tenant's Invitees in or about the Premises or elsewhere, (iv) any breach or
default in the timely performance of any obligation to be performed by Tenant
under this Lease, and/or (v) any negligence or intentional misconduct of Tenant
or any of Tenant's Invitees. If any action or proceeding is brought against
Landlord by reason of any such Claims,
7
Tenant upon notice from Landlord shall defend such action or proceeding at
Tenant's sole cost by legal counsel satisfactory to Landlord. Except to the
extent caused by Landlord's grossly negligent acts or willful misconduct, Tenant
assumes all risk of, Tenant waives all claims against Landlord in respect of,
and Landlord shall not be liable for, any of the matters set forth above in this
paragraph or any of the following: injury to Tenant's business, loss of income
from such business, or damage or injury to the goods, wares, merchandise, or
other property or the person of Tenant, Tenant's Invitees or any other persons
in, upon, or about the Premises, whether such damage, loss or injury is caused
by or results from criminal acts, fire, steam, electricity, gas, water, rain,
the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires,
appliances, plumbing, air-conditioning or lighting fixtures, or any other cause,
conditions arising upon the Premises, or other sources or places, and regardless
of whether the cause of such damage, loss, or injury or the means of repairing
such damage, loss, or injury is inaccessible to Tenant. This Lease shall not be
affected or impaired by any change to any part of the Real Property or any
sidewalks, streets, or improvements nearby the Real Property.
31. Destruction. If the Real Property is totally or partially destroyed
during the Term, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or
unusable, then, subject to the remainder of this paragraph, (i) Landlord shall
restore the Real Property to substantially the same condition as it was in
immediately before such destruction, (ii) Landlord shall not be required to
restore Tenant's Alterations, or Tenant's Personal Property, unless they are an
integral part of the Premises and specifically covered by insurance proceeds
received by Landlord, such excluded items being the sole responsibility of
Tenant to restore, (iii) such destruction shall not terminate this Lease, and
(iv) all obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall remain in effect, except
that all Rent shall be abated or reduced, between the date of such destruction
and the date of substantial completion of restoration, by the ratio of (a) the
area of the Premises rendered unusable or inaccessible by the destruction to (b)
the usable area of the Premises prior to such destruction. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord may, at its election, terminate
this Lease by so notifying Tenant in writing on or before the later of 60 days
after such destruction or 60 days after Landlord's receipt of the proceeds from
insurance maintained by Landlord, if (1) then-existing laws do not permit such
restoration, (2) such destruction occurred during the last year of the Term, (3)
such destruction exceeded 25 percent of the then-replacement value of the
Premises or the Real Property, or (4) Landlord determines that the cost of such
restoration exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds relating to such
destruction actually received by Landlord from insurance maintained by Landlord.
Additionally, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease unless
Landlord promptly notifies Tenant of its intention to restore the Premises and
such restoration can reasonably be completed within 120 days of the date of the
destruction. If Landlord so terminates this Lease, then (A) Landlord shall have
no obligation to restore the Real Property, (B) Landlord shall retain all
insurance proceeds relating to such destruction, and (C) this Lease shall
terminate as of 30 days after such notice of termination from Landlord to
Tenant. If Landlord restores the Premises as provided above, then Tenant waives
the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) or any
successor statute with respect to any destruction of the Premises.
32. Condemnation. If during the Term, or during the period of time between
the execution of this Lease and the Commencement Date, there is any taking of
all or any part of the Premises or any interest in this Lease by the exercise of
any governmental power, whether by legal proceedings or otherwise, by any public
or quasi-public authority, or private corporation, or individual, having the
power of condemnation (any of the preceding a "Condemnor"), or a voluntary sale
or transfer by Landlord to any Condemnor, either under threat of condemnation or
while legal proceedings for condemnation are pending (any of the preceding, a
"Condemnation"), the rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant shall be
determined pursuant to this paragraph. If such Condemnation is of the entire
Premises, then this Lease shall terminate on the date the Condemnor has a right
to possession of the Premises (the "Date of Condemnation"). A temporary
Condemnation of the Premises, or any part of the Premises, for less than 180
days, shall not constitute a Condemnation under this paragraph, but Tenant shall
be entitled to abatement of Rent during the period of such temporary
Condemnation. If such Condemnation is of any portion, but not all, of the
Premises, then this Lease shall remain in effect, except that, if the remaining
portion of the Premises is rendered unsuitable for Tenant's continued use of the
Premises, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease, by so notifying
Landlord in writing (the "Termination Notice") within 30 days after the date
that the nature and extent of the Condemnation have been determined. Such
termination shall be effective on the earlier of (i) the date that is 30 days
after the giving of the Termination Notice, and (ii) the Date of Condemnation.
If Tenant does not give to Landlord the Termination Notice within such 30-day
period, then all obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall remain in effect,
except that (unless the Premises are restored as set forth below) all Rent shall
be reduced by the ratio of (a) the area of the Premises taken to (b) the area of
the Premises immediately prior to the Date of Condemnation. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this paragraph, if, within 20 days after Landlord's
receipt of the Termination Notice, Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord at its
cost will add to the remaining Premises (or substitute for the Premises other
comparable space in the Project) so that the area of the Premises will be
substantially the same after the Condemnation as they were before the
Condemnation, and Landlord commences the restoration promptly and completes it
within 150 days after Landlord so notifies Tenant, then all obligations of
Tenant under this Lease shall remain in effect, except that all Rent shall be
abated or reduced as provided in the preceding sentence during the period from
the Date of Condemnation until the completion of such restoration. Unless
Landlord restores the Premises pursuant to the preceding sentence, or unless
Tenant gives to Landlord the Termination Notice within the relevant 30-day
period, Tenant at its sole cost shall accomplish any restoration required by
Tenant to use the Premises. All compensation, sums, or anything of value
awarded, paid, or received on a total or partial Condemnation (the "Award")
shall belong to and be paid to Landlord. Tenant shall have no right to any part
of the Award, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all of Tenant's right, title
and interest in and to any part of the Award, except that Tenant shall receive
from the Award any sum paid expressly to Tenant from the Condemnor expressly for
loss of good will of Tenant's business and Tenant's furniture, fixtures, and
equipment. Landlord and Tenant waive the provisions of any statute (including,
without limitation, California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 or any
successor statute) that allows Landlord or Tenant to petition the superior court
(or any other local court) to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial
taking of the Premises.
33. Hazardous Substances. Landlord hereby notifies Tenant, and Tenant
hereby acknowledges that prior to the leasing of the Premises pursuant to this
Lease, Tenant has been notified, pursuant to California Health and Safety Code
Section 25359.7 (or any successor statute), that Landlord knows, or has
reasonable cause to believe, that certain hazardous substances (as such term is
used in such Section 25359.7), including, without limitation, common cleaning
supplies, office supplies and consumer products, may have come to be located on
or beneath the Premises. Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord against all
Environmental Claims (as defined below) and all costs, expenses and attorneys'
fees incurred in the defense of any such Environmental Claims or any action or
proceeding brought on any of such Environmental Claims. For purposes of this
paragraph, "Environmental Claims" will mean and refer to all liabilities,
damages, losses, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees and claims (except to the
extent they result from Landlord's grossly negligent acts or willful
misconduct), arising from or which seek to impose liability under or because of
any environmental law (which will mean and refer to any federal, state or local
8
law, statute, regulation, ordinance, guideline or common law principle relating
to public health or safety or the use or control of the environment, including,
without limitation, the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hazardous
Substance Account Act, the California Hazardous Waste Control Law, the Federal
Clean Air Act, the California Air Resources Act, the Federal Clean Water Act,
the California ▇▇▇▇▇▇-Cologne Water Quality Control Act, the Federal Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act, the California ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Z'▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Solid Waste
Management and Recovery Act, and California Health and Safety Code Section
25359.7) for, discharges, releases or threatened releases of noise, pollutants,
contaminants, herbicides, pesticides, insecticides or hazardous or toxic wastes,
substances or materials (any of the preceding a "Hazardous Material") arising
out of Tenant's tenancy or the acts of Tenant or Tenant's Invitees, into ambient
air, water or land, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing,
distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of
pollutants, contaminants or hazardous or toxic wastes, substances or materials
from, on, under or above the Premises. Neither Tenant nor any of Tenant's
Invitees shall use, manufacture, store or dispose of any hazardous wastes, toxic
substances and other pollutants, contaminants and environmental conditions which
are or could (i) be detrimental to the Real Property, human health or the
environment, (ii) be in violation of any governmental laws or regulations, or
(iii) adversely affect the value of the Premises. If the Premises are
contaminated by any Hazardous Material during the Term, then Tenant shall
promptly (iv) notify Landlord in writing of such contamination, and (v) perform
all remediation required by Landlord (to Landlord's satisfaction), at Tenant's
sole cost, necessary to return the Premises to at least as good a condition as
the Premise are in as of the date of this Lease. If Tenant does not promptly
commence and diligently pursue such remediation, then Landlord may, at
Landlord's election, but at Tenant's sole cost, perform such remediation or
cause such remediation to be performed. Tenant shall not be liable for any such
matters arising prior to the date possession of the Premises is delivered to
Tenant unless caused by Tenant.
34. Prohibition Against Asbestos-Containing Materials. Tenant may not allow
or permit any materials which contain asbestos in any form or concentration
("Asbestos-Containing Materials") to be used or stored in the Premises or used
in the construction of any improvements or alterations to the Premises,
including, without limitation, construction materials and supplies. Such
prohibition against Asbestos-Containing Materials shall apply regardless of
whether the Asbestos-Containing Materials may be considered safe or approved for
use by a manufacturer, supplier, or governmental authority, or by common use or
practice. Landlord shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to enter upon
and conduct inspections of the Premises to determine Tenant's compliance with
this paragraph. If Tenant allows or permits Asbestos- Containing Materials to be
used or stored in the Premises or used in the construction of any improvements
or alterations to the Premises, (i) Tenant shall, upon notice from Landlord,
immediately remove such Asbestos-Containing Materials at Tenant's sole cost,
(ii) such removal shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and
requirements concerning asbestos and the removal and disposal of
Asbestos-Containing Materials, (iii) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all
expenses incurred in connection with any inspection of the Premises conducted by
Landlord, and (iv) unless Tenant completes such removal within 30 days after
notice from Landlord, Landlord may, at its election, do either or both of the
following: (a) declare Tenant in breach of this Lease and terminate this Lease
upon ten days' prior written notice to Tenant, and (b) remove and dispose of the
Asbestos-Containing Materials and obtain reimbursement from Tenant for the cost
of such removal and disposal. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord and Landlord's
directors, officers, employees, and agents against all costs, liability,
expenses, penalties, and claims for damages, including, without limitation,
litigation costs and attorneys' fees, arising from (1) the presence of
Asbestos-Containing Materials upon the Premises, to the extent that such
Asbestos-Containing Materials are used or stored in the Premises or used in the
construction of any improvements or alterations to the Premises by Tenant or
Tenant's agents, employees, representatives, or independent contractors, (2) any
lawsuit, settlement, governmental order, or decree relating to the presence,
handling, removal, or disposal of Asbestos-Containing Materials upon or from the
Premises, to the extent that such Asbestos-Containing Materials are used or
stored in the Premises or used in the construction of any improvements or
alterations to the Premises by Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees,
representatives or independent contractors, or (3) Tenant's failure to perform
its obligations to remove such Asbestos-Containing Materials under this
paragraph.
35. [INTENTIONALLY DELETED]
36. Access by Landlord. Landlord and any of Landlord's Representatives
shall have the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times, during
normal business hours if feasible under the circumstances, and upon reasonable
notice, if feasible under the circumstances, (i) to determine whether the
Premises are in Good Condition or whether Tenant is complying with its
obligations under this Lease, (ii) to do any necessary maintenance or make any
restoration to the Premises that Landlord has the right or obligation to
perform, (iii) to serve, post, or keep posted any notices required or allowed
under this Lease, (iv) to post "for sale" signs and, during the final year of
the Term, "for rent", or "for lease" signs, (v) to show the Premises to brokers,
agents, buyers, tenants, or other persons interested in a listing of, financing,
purchasing, or occupying the Premises or any portion of the Premises, and (vi)
to shore the foundations, footings, and walls of the Real Property and to erect
scaffolding and protective barricades around and about the Premises, but not so
as to prevent entry to the Premises and to do any other act or thing necessary
for the safety or preservation of the Premises if any excavation or other
construction is undertaken or is about to be undertaken on any adjacent property
or nearby street. Landlord's rights under this paragraph extend with Landlord's
consent to the owner of adjacent property on which excavation or construction is
to take place and the adjacent property owner's agents, employees, officers and
contractors. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience, disturbance,
loss of business, nuisance, or other damage arising out of any entry on the
Premises as provided in this paragraph except damage resulting directly from the
grossly negligent acts of Landlord or Landlord's Representatives. Tenant shall
not be entitled to abatement or reduction of Base Monthly Rent or Rental because
of the exercise by Landlord of any rights under this paragraph unless such
exercise by Landlord prevents Tenant from reasonable access to and use of the
Premises.
37. Alterations. Tenant shall not make any alterations, improvements,
additions, installations, or changes of any nature in or to the Premises (any of
the preceding, "Alterations") without Landlord's prior written consent which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. At least 15 days prior to making any
Alterations, Tenant shall submit to Landlord, in written form, proposed detailed
plans of such Alterations. Tenant shall, prior to the commencement of any
Alterations, at Tenant's sole cost, (i) acquire (and deliver to Landlord a copy
of) a permit from appropriate governmental agencies to make such Alterations
(any conditions of which permit Tenant shall comply with, at Tenant's sole cost,
in a prompt and expeditious manner), (ii) provide Landlord with ten days' prior
written notice of the date the installation of the Alterations is to commence,
so that Landlord can post and record an appropriate notice of
non-responsibility, and (iii) obtain (and deliver to Landlord proof of)
reasonably adequate workers' compensation insurance with respect to any of
Tenant's employees installing or involved with such Alterations (which insurance
Tenant shall maintain in force until completion of the Alterations). All
Alterations shall upon installation become the property of Landlord and shall
remain on and be surrendered with the Premises on the Expiration Date, except
that Landlord may, at its election, require Tenant to remove any or all of the
Alterations, by so notifying Tenant in writing on or before the
9
Expiration Date, in which event, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, on or before
the Expiration Date, repair and restore the Premises to the condition of the
Premises prior to the installation of such Alterations to be removed. Tenant
shall pay all costs for Alterations and other construction done or caused to be
done by Tenant. Tenant shall keep the Premises free and clear of all mechanics'
liens resulting from Alterations or other construction. Tenant may, at its
election, contest the correctness or validity of any such lien provided that (a)
immediately on demand by Landlord, Tenant procures and records a lien release
bond, issued by a corporation satisfactory to Landlord and authorized to issue
surety bonds in the state in which the Premises are located, in an amount equal
to 150 percent of the amount of the claim of lien, which bond meets the
requirements of California Civil Code Section 3143 or any successor statute, and
(b) Landlord may, at its election, require Tenant to pay Landlord's attorneys'
fees and costs in participating in such an action.
38. Surrender of Premises and Holding Over. On the Expiration Date, (i)
Tenant shall surrender to Landlord the Premises and all Alterations in Good
Condition except for Alterations that Tenant is obligated to remove as expressly
set forth in Paragraph 37, above, entitled "Alterations", (ii) Tenant shall
remove all of Tenant's Personal Property and perform all repairs and restoration
required by the removal of any Alterations or Tenant's Personal Property, and
(iii) Tenant shall surrender to Landlord all keys, entry devices, and security
codes relating to the Premises (including, without limitation, any keys to any
exterior or interior doors). Landlord may elect to retain or dispose of in any
manner any Alterations or Tenant's Personal Property that Tenant does not remove
from the Premises on the Expiration Date as required by this Lease by giving
written notice to Tenant. Any such Alterations or Tenant's Personal Property
that Landlord elects to retain or dispose of shall vest in Landlord. Tenant
waives all claims against Landlord for any damage to Tenant resulting from
Landlord's retention or disposition of any such Alterations or Tenant's Personal
Property. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for Landlord's costs for storing,
removing, or disposing of any such Alterations or Tenant's Personal Property. If
Tenant fails to surrender the Premises to Landlord on the Expiration Date,
Tenant shall indemnify and defend Landlord against all liabilities, damages,
losses, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees, and claims resulting from such
failure, including, without limitation, any claim for damages made by a
succeeding tenant. If Tenant, with Landlord's consent, remains in possession of
the Premises after the Expiration Date, such possession by Tenant shall be
deemed to be a month-to-month tenancy terminable on 30-days' written notice
given at any time by Landlord or Tenant. During any such month-to-month tenancy,
Tenant shall pay, as minimum Base Monthly Rent, 100 percent of the Base Monthly
Rent in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Date. All provisions of this
Lease except for those pertaining to Term shall apply to such month-to-month
tenancy.
39. Assignment and Other Transfers. Without Landlord's prior written
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, none of the following shall
occur, voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise (any of the
following, a "Transfer"): any assignment, sublease, disposition, sale,
concession, license, mortgage, encumbrance, hypothecation, pledge, collateral
assignment, or other transfer, by Tenant of this Lease, any interest in this
Lease, or all or any portion of the Premises; or Landlord shall not be liable in
damages (to Tenant or to any proposed subtenant, assignee or other transferee
(any of the preceding a "Proposed Transferee")) if such consent is adjudicated
to have been unreasonably withheld, and, in such event, Tenant's sole remedy
shall be to have the proposed Transfer declared as valid as if Landlord's
consent had been given, although Tenant shall be entitled to reasonable
attorney's fees if Tenant is the prevailing party in such litigation. At least
60 days prior to entering into any Transfer, Tenant shall submit to Landlord the
sum of $400.00 (as payment toward Landlord's and Landlord's attorneys' costs of
reviewing, consenting to, rejecting, and/or consummating any proposed Transfer),
and a written notice ("Tenant's Notice") which includes or sets forth in
reasonable detail (a) the form of the proposed Transfer, including, without
limitation, all related agreements, documents, instruments, exhibits, and escrow
instructions, (b) the name and address of the Proposed Transferee, (c) the terms
and conditions of the proposed Transfer, including, without limitation, the
commencement or effective date of the proposed Transfer, which shall be at least
60 days after Tenant's Notice is given, and (d) the nature, character, and
current banking, financial, and other credit information and references with
respect to the Proposed Transferee and the business of the Proposed Transferee
(including, without limitation, tax returns for the most-recent five years, a
business plan with cash-flow projections and financial projections with
assumptions and competitive market analysis), in reasonably sufficient detail to
enable Landlord to determine the Proposed Transferee's financial responsibility.
Within 15 business days after Landlord's receipt from Tenant of such sum and
Tenant's Notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether Landlord has consented to
the proposed Transfer. Any consent by Landlord to any proposed Transfer shall
not constitute a consent with respect to any other Transfer. If Landlord
consents to any proposed Transfer, and Tenant fails to consummate such Transfer
within 30 days of the commencement or effective date of the proposed Transfer
(as set forth in Tenant's Notice), then such consent shall be deemed withdrawn
and Tenant shall be required again to comply with this paragraph before making a
Transfer. Landlord shall not have unreasonably withheld its consent with respect
to any Transfer if Landlord shall not have received such sum or Tenant's Notice,
if the nature or character of the Proposed Transferee, or the proposed use and
occupancy of the Premises by the Proposed Transferee, is not in keeping with the
dignity and character of the Project and the surrounding area, if the proposed
Transfer will result in the diminution of the value or marketability of the
Premises, if Landlord is not satisfied that the Proposed Transferee is
creditworthy, or if the proposed Transfer will conflict with or result in a
breach of any of the provisions of, or constitute a default under, any
agreement, instrument, or document to which Landlord is a party or by which the
Real Property may be bound. No Transfer shall release or discharge Tenant from
any liability, whether past, present, or future, under this Lease and Tenant
shall continue to remain primarily liable under this Lease. Tenant irrevocably
assigns to Landlord, as security for Tenant's obligations under this Lease, all
rent and other amounts from any Transfer, and Landlord, as assignee and as
special attorney-in-fact for Tenant, or a receiver for Tenant appointed on
Landlord's application, may collect such rent and other amounts and apply them
toward Tenant's obligations under this Lease; except that, unless Tenant
defaults under this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to collect such rent and
other amounts. Any Transfer documents must contain the following provisions,
which provisions whether contained in such Transfer documents or not, shall
apply to such Transfer: (1) Such Transfer shall be subject and subordinate to
all provisions of this Lease; (2) No Proposed Transferee shall be permitted to
enter into any Transfer without Landlord's prior written consent; and (3) At
Landlord's option, in the event of cancellation or termination of this Lease for
any reason or the surrender of this Lease, whether voluntarily, involuntarily,
by operation of law, or otherwise, prior to the expiration of such Transfer, the
Proposed Transferee shall make full and complete attornment to Landlord for the
balance of the term of such Transfer. Such attornment shall be evidenced by an
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord which the Proposed
Transferee shall execute and deliver to Landlord within five days after request
by Landlord. Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable
cost (less any payment made by Tenant with Landlord as set forth above) of
reviewing, consenting to, rejecting and/or consummating any proposed Transfer,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees. Tenant shall promptly
pay to Landlord 50 percent of all rents and other consideration, of whatever
nature, payable by the Proposed Transferee (or receivable by Tenant) pursuant to
any Transfer, which exceed (A) if a sublease of a portion of the Premises, the
portion of the Base Monthly Rent that is allocable to the portion of the
Premises subleased (such allocation based on the area of the portion subleased),
or (B) if any other Transfer, the Base Monthly Rent. Landlord may, at its
election, by giving written notice (the "Recapture Notice") to Tenant within 15
days after receipt of Tenant's Notice, notify Tenant that Landlord intends
10
to recapture the Premises and terminate this Lease. If Tenant notifies Landlord
in writing, within ten days after the giving of the Recapture Notice, that
Tenant withdraws Tenant's Notice, then Tenant shall be deemed to have withdrawn
Tenant's request for Landlord's consent to the proposed Transfer and Landlord
shall have no right to recapture the Premises and/or terminate this Lease
pursuant to this paragraph. If Tenant fails to notify Landlord in writing,
within 15 days after the giving of the Recapture Notice, that Tenant withdraws
Tenant's Notice (or if Tenant notifies Landlord in writing, within 15 days after
the giving of the Recapture Notice, that Tenant does not withdraw Tenant's
Notice), then (if and to the extent permitted by applicable law) this Lease
shall automatically be deemed terminated as of the commencement or effective
date stated in Tenant's Notice for the proposed Transfer, and Tenant shall
surrender possession of the Premises as of such date. Landlord's giving of a
Recapture Notice shall not constitute Landlord's consent to Tenant's proposed
Transfer.
40. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a
material default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:
40. 1. The vacating or abandoning of the Premises by Tenant.
40.2. Tenant's failure to make any payment of Rental as and when due,
where such failure shall continue for a period of three days after written
notice of such failure from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that any such
notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under
applicable unlawful detainer statutes.
40.3. Tenant's failure to observe or perform any of the provisions of
this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than described in the
preceding two paragraphs where such failure shall continue for a period of 30
days after written notice of such failure from Landlord to Tenant; provided,
however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any
notice required under applicable unlawful detainer statutes; and provided
further, however, that if the nature of Tenant's default is such that more than
30 days are required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in
default if Tenant commenced such cure within such 30-day period and thereafter
diligently prosecutes such cure to completion within 75 days after Landlord's
written notice.
40.4. Tenant's failure to deliver to Landlord, within 20 days after
Landlord's written request, any financial statement of Tenant (including,
without limitation, a current annual balance sheet of Tenant) reasonably
requested by Landlord, or if any financial statement given to Landlord by
Tenant, or by any assignee, subtenant, or guarantor of Tenant, is materially
false or evidences that Tenant's net worth is negative, and Tenant fails to
furnish to Landlord, within ten days after written notice from Landlord to
Tenant, with cash as an additional security deposit in an amount equal to the
aggregate Rental payable under this Lease for the six full calendar months
immediately preceding such notice.
40.5. The making by Tenant of any general arrangement or assignment
for the benefit of creditors; Tenant's becoming bankrupt, insolvent or a
"debtor" as defined in 11 U.S.C. Section 101, or any successor statute (unless,
in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, such petition is dismissed
within 30 days after its original filing); the institution of proceedings under
the bankruptcy or similar laws in which Tenant is the debtor or bankrupt; the
appointing of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of
Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease
(unless possession is restored to Tenant within 30 days after such taking); the
attachment, execution or 'Judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's
assets located at the Premises or Tenant's interest in this Lease (unless such
attachment, execution or judicial seizure is discharged within 30 days after
such attachment, execution or judicial seizure); or, if Tenant is a partnership
or consists of more than one person or entity, any partners of the partnership
or any such other person or entity becoming bankrupt or insolvent or making a
general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors.
41. Landlord's Remedies. Landlord shall have the following remedies if
Tenant commits a default or breach under this Lease; these remedies are not
exclusive, but are cumulative in addition to any remedies provided elsewhere in
this Lease, or now or later allowed by law or in equity.
41.1. Continuation of Lease. No act by Landlord (including, without
limitation, the acts set forth in the succeeding sentence) shall terminate
Tenant's right to possession unless Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that
Landlord elects to terminate Tenant's right to possession. As long as Landlord
does not terminate Tenant's right to possession, Landlord may (i) continue this
Lease in effect, (ii) continue to collect Rental when due and enforce all the
other provisions of this Lease, (iii) enter the Premises and relet them, or any
part of them, to third parties for Tenant's account, for a period shorter or
longer than the remaining term of this Lease, and (iv) have a receiver appointed
to collect Rental and conduct Tenant's business. Tenant shall immediately pay to
Landlord all costs Landlord incurs in such reletting, including, without
limitation, brokers' commissions, attorneys' fees, advertising costs and
expenses of remodeling the Premises for such reletting. Landlord has the remedy
described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (which provides that Landlord
may continue the Lease in effect after Tenant's breach and abandonment and
recover rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign,
subject only to reasonable limitations).
41.2. Rent from Reletting . If Landlord elects to relet all or any
portion of the Premises as permitted above, rent that Landlord receives from
such reletting shall be applied to the payment of, in the following order and
priority, (i) any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Monthly
Rent due from Tenant, (ii) all costs incurred by Landlord in such reletting, and
(iii) Base Monthly Rent due and unpaid under this Lease. After applying such
payments as referred to above, any sum remaining from the rent Landlord receives
from such reletting shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future
Base Monthly Rent as it becomes due under this Lease. In no event shall Tenant
be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord.
41.3. Termination of Tenant's Right to Possession. Landlord may
terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises at any time, by notifying
Tenant in writing that Landlord elects to terminate Tenant's right to
possession. On termination of this Lease, Landlord has the right to recover from
Tenant (i) the worth at the time of the award of the unpaid Base Monthly Rent
which had been earned at the time of such termination, (ii) the worth at the
time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Base Monthly Rent which
would have been earned after such termination until the time of award exceeds
the amount of such loss of Base Monthly Rent that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided, (iii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by
which the unpaid Base Monthly Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of
award (had there been no such termination) exceeds the amount of such loss of
Base Monthly Rent that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, and (iv) any
other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately
caused by
11
Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease or in the
ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom. The ..Worth at
the time of the award" of the amounts referred to in Clauses (i) and (ii) above
is to be computed by allowing interest at the Default Rate, as set forth above,
or if no Default Rate is set forth above, then at the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law. The "worth at the time of the award" of the amount referred to
in Clause (iii) above is to 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.
41.4. Landlord's Right to Cure Default. Landlord, at any time after
Tenant fails to perform any obligation or duty of Tenant under this Lease, may
cure such failure at Tenant's sole cost. If Landlord at any time, by reason of
Tenant's failure to perform, pays any sum or does any act that requires the
payment of any sum (plus a supervisory fee of 15 percent of such sum), such sum
shall be due immediately from Tenant to Landlord at the time such sum is paid,
and shall be deemed additional rent under this Lease.
41.5. Enforcement Costs. All costs and expenses incurred by Landlord
in connection with collecting any amounts and damages owing by Tenant pursuant
to the provisions of this Lease, or to enforce any provision of this Lease,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, whether or not any action is commenced by
Landlord, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. If Tenant fails to
timely pay any amount due under this paragraph, then (without curing such
default) interest at the Default Rate shall accrue (and be immediately payable)
on such overdue amounts until it is paid.
41.6. Interest and Late Charges. Late payment by Tenant to Landlord of
Rental will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the
exact amount of which would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix. Such
costs include, without limitation, processing, collection and accounting
charges, and late charges that may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any
deed of trust covering the Premises. Therefore, if any Rental is not received by
Landlord within five days of its due date, then, without any requirement for
notice to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of ten percent
of such overdue amount as a late charge. Such late charge represents a fair and
reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of any late
payment by Tenant, and therefore this paragraph is reasonable under the
circumstances existing at the time this Lease is made. Acceptance of such late
charge by Landlord shall not 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 available to Landlord under this Lease. In addition to
the late charge payable by Tenant, as provided above, if any such Rental is not
paid within 30 days of the date such Rental was due, then Tenant shall pay to
Landlord interest on such overdue Rental at the Default Rate. Such interest
shall additionally accrue and be payable by Tenant relative to any other amounts
payable by Tenant to Landlord under the provisions of this Lease which are not
paid when due.
41.7. Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or
remedy of Landlord in the event of any default by Tenant shall impair such right
or remedy or be construed as a waiver. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of
delinquent Rental shall not constitute a waiver of any default other than the
particular Rental payment accepted. Landlord's receipt and acceptance from
Tenant, on any date (the "Receipt Date"), of an amount less than Rental due on
such Receipt Date, or to become due at a later date but applicable to a period
prior to such Receipt Date, shall not release Tenant of its obligation (i) to
pay the full amount of such Rental due on such Receipt Date or (ii) to pay when
due the full amount of such Rental to become due at a later date but applicable
to a period prior to such Receipt Date. No act or conduct of Landlord,
including, without limitation,, the acceptance of the keys to the Premises,
shall constitute an acceptance by Landlord of the surrender of the Premises by
Tenant before the Expiration Date. Only a written notice from Landlord to Tenant
stating Landlord's election to terminate Tenant's right to possession of the
Premises shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and
accomplish a termination of this Lease. Landlord's consent to or approval of any
act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to
waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any other or
subsequent act by Tenant. Any waiver by Landlord of any default must be in
writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or
any other provision of this Lease. Tenant hereby waives any rights granted to
Tenant under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1179, California Civil
Code Section 3275, and/or any successor statute(s). Tenant represents and
warrants that if Tenant breaches this Lease and, as a result, this Lease is
terminated, Tenant will not suffer any undue hardship as a result of such
termination and, during the Term, will make such alternative or other
contingency plans to provide for its vacation of the Premises and relocation in
the event of such termination. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant's waivers set
forth in this paragraph are a material part of the consideration for Landlord's
entering into this Lease and that Landlord would not have entered into this
Lease in the absence of such waivers.
42, Subordination and Attornment. This Lease and Tenant's rights under this
Lease are subject and subordinate to any Mortgage, ground lease " or underlying
lease, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, or
extensions thereof, now or hereafter e affecting the Premises. The provisions of
this paragraph shall be self-operative, and no further instrument of
subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, however,
Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver any instruments that Landlord, any
Lender, or the lessor of any ground or underlying lease, may request to evidence
such subordination. Tenant hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord
as Tenant's special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such instruments.
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this paragraph, if any ground lessor
or Lender elects to have this Lease prior to the lien of its ground lease or
Mortgage, and gives written notice thereof to Tenant that this Lease shall be
deemed prior to such ground lease or Mortgage, whether this Lease is dated prior
or subsequent to the date of such ground lease or Mortgage, then this Lease
shall be deemed to be prior to the lien of such ground lease or Mortgage and
such ground lease or Mortgage shall be deemed to be subordinate to this Lease.
If any Lender, or the lessor of any ground or underlying lease affecting the
Premises, shall hereafter succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease,
whether by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or other-wise, then (i)
such successor landlord shall not be subject to any offsets or defenses which
Tenant might have against Landlord, (ii) such successor landlord shall not be
bound by any prepayment by Tenant of more than one month's installment of Base
Monthly Rent or any other Rental, (iii) such successor landlord shall not be
subject to any liability or obligation of Landlord except those arising after
such succession, (iv) Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such successor
landlord as Tenant's landlord under this Lease, (V) Tenant shall promptly
execute and deliver any instruments that may be necessary to evidence such
attornment, (vi) Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord (and such successor
landlord) as Tenant's special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such
instruments on behalf of Tenant, and (vii) upon such attornment, this Lease
shall continue in effect as a direct lease between such successor landlord and
Tenant upon and subject to A of the provisions of this Lease. If any Lender
requests reasonable amendment(s) to this Lease at any time during the Term, then
Tenant shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its written consent to such
amendment(s).
12
43. Estoppel Certificates.
43. 1. Within ten days after notice from Landlord, Tenant shall
execute and deliver to Landlord, in recordable form, an estoppel certificate
stating (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or in
full force and effect as modified, and stating A modifications, (11) the
then-current Base Monthly Rent, (iii) the dates to which Base Monthly Rent has
been paid in advance, (iv) the amount of any security deposit, prepaid rent or
other payment constituting Rental which has been paid, (v) whether or not Tenant
or Landlord is in default under this Lease, and (vi) such other matters as
Landlord shall reasonably request. Tenant's failure to deliver such certificate
within such ten-day period shall be conclusive upon Tenant for the benefit of
Landlord, and any successor in interest to Landlord, that, except as may be
represented by Landlord, this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect,
no Rental has been paid more than 30 days in advance, and neither Tenant nor
Landlord is in default under this Lease. Tenant irrevocably constitutes and
appoints Landlord as its special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such
certificate to any third party if Tenant fails to deliver such certificate
within such ten-day period.
43.2. In addition to Tenant's obligation to provide Landlord with an
estoppel certificate as set forth in Paragraph 43.1, above, Landlord agrees to
execute and deliver to Tenant, upon written request, an estoppel certificate
indicating that this Lease is unmodified and 'in full force and effect, or in
full force and effect as modified, stating all modifications, as well as the
then-current Base Monthly Rent (and the dates to which Base Monthly Rent has
been paid), and whether or not, to the best of Landlord's knowledge, Tenant is
in default under this Lease.
44. Brokers. Tenant represents that, except for CAL-WEST REAL ESTATE, no
real estate broker, agent, finder, or other person is responsible bringing about
or negotiating this Lease and Tenant has not dealt with any real estate broker,
agent, finder, or other person, relative to this Lease in any manner. Tenant
hereby indemnifies Landlord against all liabilities, damages, losses, costs,
expenses, attorneys' fees and claims arising from any claims that may be made
against Landlord by any real estate broker, agent, finder, or other person
(other than as set forth above), alleging to have acted on behalf of or to have
dealt with Tenant.
45. Easements. Landlord may, at its election, from time to time, grant such
casements, rights and dedications, and cause the recordation of parcel maps and
restrictions, provided such easements, rights, dedications, parcel maps, and
restrictions do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by
Tenant. Tenant shall promptly sign any documents or instruments to accomplish
the foregoing upon request by Landlord. Tenant irrevocably appoints Landlord as
Tenant's special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such documents or
instruments on behalf of Tenant if Tenant refuses or fails to do so.
46. Limitations on Landlord's Liability. If Landlord is in default of this
Lease, and as a consequence Tenant recovers a money judgment against Landlord,
such judgment shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon
execution of such judgment and levy against the right, title, and interest of
Landlord in the Real Property, and out of rent or other income from the Real
Property receivable by Landlord or out of the consideration received by Landlord
from the sale or other disposition of all or any part of Landlord's right,
title, and interest in the Real Property. Neither Landlord nor the partners
comprising Landlord (if any) shall be personally liable for any deficiency.
47. Sale or Transfer of Premises. If Landlord sells or transfers any
portion of the Premises, Landlord, on consummation of the sale or transfer,
shall be released from any liability thereafter accruing under this Lease. If
any security deposit or prepaid rent has been paid by Tenant, Landlord may
transfer the security deposit and/or prepaid rent to Landlord's
successor-in-interest and on such transfer Landlord shall be discharged from any
further liability arising from the security deposit or prepaid rent.
48. Quitclaim Dee . Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, promptly
on Landlord's request on or after the Expiration Date, a quitclaim deed to the
Premises, in recordable form, designating Landlord as transferee.
49. No Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or
a mutual cancellation of this Lease, or a termination by Landlord, shall not
work a merger, and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate any existing
subleases or may, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to
Landlord of any such subleases.
50. Attorneys' Fees. In the event any litigation, arbitration, mediation,
or other proceeding ("Proceeding") is initiated by any party against any r party
to enforce, interpret or otherwise obtain judicial or quasi-judicial relief in
connection with this Lease, the prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be
entitled to recover from the unsuccessful party all costs, expenses, and actual
attorneys' fees relating to or arising out of such Proceeding (whether or not
such Proceeding proceeds to judgment), and any post-judgment or post-award
proceeding including, without limitation, one to enforce any judgment or award
resulting from any such Proceeding. Any such judgment or award shall contain a
specific provision for the recovery of all such subsequently incurred costs,
expenses, and actual attorneys' fees.
51. Miscellaneous. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises are located. If the
Premises are located outside of California, then the references in this Lease to
California statutes (such as California Civil Code Sections 1932(2), 1933(4),
1941, 1942, 3143, 3262, and 3275, California Code of Civil Procedure Sections
1179 and 1265.130, and California Health and Safety Code Section 25359.7) shall
be deemed to include any relevant statute of the jurisdiction in which the
Premises are located that is comparable to such California statutes. For
purposes of venue and jurisdiction, this Lease shall be deemed made and to be
performed in the City of San Diego, California (whether or not the Premises are
located in San Diego, California). This Lease may be executed in counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall
constitute one document. Whenever the context so requires, all words used in the
singular shall be construed to have been used in the plural (and vice versa),
each gender shall be construed to include any other genders, and the word
"person" shall be construed to include a natural person, a corporation, a firm,
a partnership, a joint venture, a trust, an estate or any other entity. Each
provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
permitted by law. If any provision of this Lease or the application of such
provision to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such provision
to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or
unenforceable, shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability,
unless such provision or such application of such provision is essential to this
Lease. This Lease shall become effective when it has been executed by each of
Landlord and Tenant. Subject to any restriction on transferability contained in
this Lease, this Lease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of
the
13
successors-in-interest and assigns of each party to this Lease. Nothing in this
paragraph shall create any rights enforceable by any person not a party to this
Lease, except for the rights of the successors-in-interest and assigns of each
party to this Lease, unless such rights are expressly granted in this Lease to
other specifically identified persons. The headings of the paragraphs of this
Lease have been included only for convenience, and shall not be deemed in any
manner to modify or limit any of the provisions of this Lease, or be used in any
manner in the interpretation of this Lease. Time and strict and punctual
performance are of the essence with respect to each provision of this Lease.
This Lease contains the entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant with
respect to the subject matter of this Lease, is a complete and exclusive
statement of the terms of such agreement, and supersedes all prior
understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, if any, with respect
to such subject matter. All notices or other communications required or
permitted to be given to Tenant or Landlord shall be in writing and shall be
personally delivered, sent by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, or sent by an overnight express courier service that provides written
confirmation of delivery, to Tenant at the Premises and to Landlord at its
address as set forth in the introductory paragraph of this Lease. Each such
notice or other communication shall be deemed given, delivered and received upon
its actual receipt, except that if it is sent by mail in accordance with this
paragraph, then it shall be deemed given, delivered and received three days
after the date such notice or other communication is deposited with the United
States Postal Service in accordance with this paragraph. Landlord or Tenant may
give a notice of a change of its address to the other. If more than one person
is Tenant, then the obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall be the joint
and several obligations of each of such persons; provided, however, that any act
or signature of one or more of any of such persons and any notice or refund
given to or served on any one of such persons shall be fully binding on each of
such persons. All provisions, whether covenants or conditions, to be performed
or observed by Tenant shall be deemed to be both covenants and conditions. All
payments to be made by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease shall be in United
States currency.
