RENT
----
2.01 Base Rent. Lessee agrees to pay monthly as base rent during the term
of this Lease the sum of money set forth in section 1.04 of this Lease, which
amount shall be payable to Lessor at the address shown above. One monthly
installment of rent shall be due and payable on the date of execution of this
Lease by Lessee for the first month's rent and a like monthly installment shall
be due and payable on or before the first day of each calendar month succeeding
the commencement date or completion date during the term of this Lease;
provided, if the commencement date or the completion date should be a date other
than the first day of a calendar month, the monthly rental set forth above shall
be prorated to the end of the calendar month, and all succeeding installments of
rent shall be payable on or before the first day of each succeeding calendar
month during the term of this Lease. Lessee shall pay, as additional rent, all
other sums due under this Lease.
2.02 Operating Expenses. Lessee shall also pay as additional rent
Lessee's pro rata share of the operating expenses of Lessor for the building
and/or project of which the leased premises are a part, except that Lessee's pro
rata share for Controllable Expenses shall be limited to an increase of no more
than six percent (6%) from the previous calendar year. Controllable Expenses
shall mean those expenses for which the Lessor contracts for services at a
negotiated price or rate for services (including professional property
management fees). Non-Controllable Expenses shall include all other expenses.
Lessor may invoice Lessee monthly for Lessee's pro rata share of the estimated
operating expenses for each calendar year, which amount shall be adjusted each
year based upon anticipated operating expenses. Within nine (9) months following
the close of each calendar year, Lessor shall provide Lessee an accounting
showing in reasonable detail all computations of additional rent due under this
section. In the event the accounting shows that the total of the monthly
payments made by Lessee exceeds the amount of additional rent due by Lessee
under this section, the accounting shall be accompanied by a refund. In the
event the accounting shows that the total of the monthly payments made by Lessee
is less than the amount of additional rent due by Lessee under this section, the
accounting shall be accompanied by an invoice for the additional rent.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Lease, during the year in which this
Lease terminates, Lessor, prior to the termination date, shall have the option
to invoice Lessee for Lessee's pro rata share of operating expenses based upon
the previous year's operating expenses. If this Lease shall terminate on a day
other than the last day of calendar year, the amount of any additional rent
payable by Lessee applicable to the year in which the termination shall occur
shall be prorated on the ratio that the number of days from the commencement of
the calendar year to and including such termination date bears to 365. Lessee
shall have the right, at its own expense and within a reasonable time, to audit
Lessor's books relevant to the additional rent payable under this section.
Lessee agrees to pay any additional rent due under this section within ten days
following receipt of the invoice or accounting showing additional rent due. The
current estimate of Lessee's share of operating expenses is Two and 60/100
Dollars ($2.60) per square foot of the leased premises which shall be paid in
addition to and along with base rent. Lessee's prorated share of the projects
operating expenses shall be 15.20%.
2.03 Definition of Operating Expenses. The term "operating expenses"
includes all expenses incurred by Lessor with respect to the maintenance and
operation of the building of which the leased premises are a part, including,
but not limited to, the following: maintenance, repair and replacement costs;
security; management fees, wages and benefits payable to employees of Lessor
whose duties are directly connected with the operation and maintenance of the
building; all services, utilities, supplies, repairs, replacements or other
expenses of maintaining and operating the common parking and plaza areas; the
cost, including interest, amortized over its useful life, or the costs
3
(amortized over their useful life) of capital improvements and structural
repairs and replacements made in or to the building (including finance costs) in
order to conform to any applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, or
orders of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority having jurisdiction
over the building; the cost, including interest, amortized over its useful life,
of installation of any device or other equipment which improves the operating
efficiency of any system within the leased premises and thereby reduces
operating expenses; all other expenses which would generally be regarded as
operating and maintenance expenses which would reasonably be amortized over a
period not to exceed five (5) years; all real property taxes and installments of
special assessments, including dues and assessments by means of deed
restrictions and/or owners' associations which accrue against the building of
which the leased premises are a part during the term of this Lease; and all
insurance premiums Lessor is required to pay or deems necessary to pay,
including public liability insurance, with respect to the building. The term
operating expenses does not include the following: repairs, restoration or other
work occasioned by fire, wind, the elements or other casualty; income and
franchise taxes of Lessor; expenses incurred in leasing to or procuring of
Lessees, leasing commissions, advertising expenses and expenses for the
renovating of space for new Lessees; interest or principal payments on any
mortgage or other indebtedness of Lessor; compensation paid to any employee of
Lessor above the grade of property manager; and depreciation allowance or
expense; or operating expenses which are the responsibility of Lessee.
2.04 Late Payment Charge. Other remedies for nonpayment of rent
notwithstanding, if the monthly rental payment is not received by Lessor on or
before the fifth (5th) day of the month for which the rent is due, or if any
other payment due Lessor by Lessee is not received by Lessor on or before the
fifth (5th) day of the month next following the month in which Lessee was
invoiced, a late payment charge of five percent (5%) of such past due amount
shall become due and payable in addition to such amounts owed under this Lease.
2.05 Interest Due. If any amount due from Lessee to Lessor hereunder
whether it be rental or other charges, is not paid within five (5) days of when
due, Lessee shall pay Lessor an amount equal to eighteen percent (18%) per annum
of the total amount due Lessor, from the original due date until paid. Interest
charges shall be in addition to, and not in substitution of, late charges
imposed.
2.06 Increase in Insurance Premiums. If any increase in any insurance
premiums paid by Lessor for the building is caused by Lessee's use of the leased
premises in a manner other than as set forth in section 1.06, or if Lessee
vacates the leased premises and causes an increase in such premiums, then Lessee
shall pay as additional rent the amount of such increase to Lessor.
2.07 Security Deposit. The security deposit set forth above shall be
held by Lessor for the performance of Lessee's covenants and obligations under
this Lease, it being expressly understood that the deposit shall not be
considered an advance payment of rental or a measure of Lessor's damage in case
of default by Lessee. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Lessee or
breach by Lessee of Lessee's covenants under this Lease, Lessor may, from time
to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, use the security deposit to the
extent necessary to make good any arrears of rent, or to repair any damage or
injury, or pay any expense or liability incurred by Lessor as a result of the
event of default or breach of covenant, and any remaining balance of the
security deposit is so used or applied, Lessee shall upon ten (10) days written
notice from Lessor, deposit with Lessor by cash or cashier's check an amount
sufficient to restore the security deposit to its original amount.
2.08 Holding Over. In the event that Lessee does not vacate the leased
premises upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Lessee shall be a
tenant-at-will for the holdover period and all
4
of the terms and provisions of this Lease shall be applicable during that
period, except that Lessee shall pay Lessor as base rental for the period of
such holdover an amount equal to one and one-half (1 1/2) times the base rent
which would have been payable by Lessee had the holdover period been a part of
the original term of this Lease. Lessee agrees to vacate and deliver the leased
premises to Lessor upon Lessee's receipt of notice from Lessor to vacate. The
rental payable during the holdover period shall be payable to Lessor on demand.
No holding over by Lessee, whether with or without the consent of Lessor, shall
operate to extend the term of this Lease.

reputable and will not create a nuisance. Lessee shall not permit any operation
which emits any odor or matter which intrudes into other portions of the

management of the building. Lessee shall neither permit any waste on the leased

herein. If at any time during the term of this Lease the State Board of
Insurance or other insurance authority disallows any of Lessor's sprinkler
credits or imposes an additional penalty or surcharge in Lessor's insurance
premiums because of Lessee's original or subsequent placement of use of storage

act of Lessee, Lessee agrees to pay as additional rent the increase (between
fire walls) in Lessor's insurance premiums.

ordinances or governmental rules, regulations and requirements now in force or

cleanliness, preservation of good order and operation or use of the building or
the leased premises. All changes and amendments to the rules and regulations of
the building will be sent by Lessor to Lessee in writing and shall thereafter be
carried out and observed by Lessee.

improve or repair the leased premises or any other portion of the building.
Lessee hereby waives any claim for damages for injury or inconvenience to or
interference with Lessee's business, any loss of occupancy or use of the leased
premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. Lessor shall at all times have
and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and about the
leased premises. Lessee shall not change Lessor's lock system or in any other
manner prohibit Lessor from entering the leased premises. Lessor shall have the
right to use any and all means which Lessor may deem proper to open any door in

ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS

applicable, setting forth the amount of any costs to be borne by Lessee with

and accepted by written change order or agreement signed by Lessor and Lessee
and shall constitute an amendment to this Lease.

obtaining the written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld except for alterations or additions that affect the structural,

absolute discretion of Lessor be denied. Any alterations, physical additions or
improvements to the leased premises made by Lessee shall at once become the
property of Lessor and shall be surrendered to Lessor upon the termination of

then in default and if such equipment and furniture are not then subject to any
other rights, liens and interest of Lessor.
6.03 Mechanics Lien. Lessee will not permit any mechanic's or
materialman's lien(s) or other lien to be placed upon the leased premises or the

and nothing in this Lease shall be deemed to construed in any way as
constituting the consent or request of Lessor, express or implied, by inference
or otherwise, to any person for the performance of any labor or the furnishing
of any materials to the leased premises, or any part thereof, nor as giving
Lessee any right, power, or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of
any services of the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to any
mechanic's, materialman's or other lien against the leased premises. In the
event any such lien is attached to the leased premises, then, in addition to any
other right or remedy of Lessor, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to,
obtain the release of or otherwise discharge the same. Any amount paid by Lessor
for any of the aforesaid purposes shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand as
additional rent.

ARTICLE 7
CASUALTY AND INSURANCE
----------------------
7.01 Substantial Destruction. If the leased premises should be totally
destroyed by fire or other casualty, or if the leased premises should be damaged
so that rebuilding cannot reasonably be completed within ninety (90) working
days after the date of written notification by Lessee to Lessor of the
destruction, this Lease shall terminate and the rent shall be abated for the
unexpired portion of the Lease, effective as of the date of the written
notification. Notwithstanding the foregoing there shall be not abatement of
rent in the event Tenant is responsible in whole or in part for the casualty or
destruction.
7.02 Partial Destruction. If the leased premises should be partially
damaged by fire or other casualty, and rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be
completed with ninety (90) working days from the date of written notification by
Lessee to Lessor of the destruction, this Lease shall not terminate, and Lessor
shall at its sole risk and expense proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild
or repair the building or other improvements to substantially the same condition
in which they existed prior to the damage. If the leased premises are to be
rebuilt or repaired and are untenantable in whole or in part following the
damage, and the damage or destruction was not caused or contribute to by act or
negligence of Lessee, its agents, employees, invitees, or those for whom Lessee
is responsible, the rent payable under this Lease during the period for which
the leased premises are untenantable shall be adjusted to such an extent as may
be fair and reasonable under the circumstances. In the event that Lessor fails
to complete the necessary repairs or rebuilding within ninety (90) working days
from the date of written notice of termination to Lessor whereupon all rights
and obligations under this Lease shall cease to exist.
7.03 Waiver of Subrogation. Anything in this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, Lessor and Lessee hereby waive and release each other of and
from any and all right of recovery, claim, action or cause of action, against
each other, their agents, officers and employees, for any loss or damage that
may occur to the leased premises, improvements to the building of which the
leased premises are a part, or personal property within the building, by reason
of fire or the elements, regardless of cause or origin, including negligence of
Lessor or Lessee and their agents, officers and employees. Lessor and Lessee
agree immediately to give their respective insurance companies which have issued
policies of special covered causes of loss insurance of direct physical loss,
written notice of the terms of the mutual waivers contained in this section, and
to have the insurance policies property endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the
invalidation of the insurance coverages by reason of the mutual waivers.
7.04 Hold Harmless. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee's employees,
agents, invitees, licensees or visitors, or to any other person, for an injury
to any other person, for an injury to person or damage to property on or about
the leased premises caused by any act or omission of Lessee, its agents,
servants or employees, or of any other person entering upon the leased premises
under express or implied invitation by Lessee, or caused by the improvements
located on the leased premises becoming out of repair, the failure or cessation
of any service provided by Lessor (including security service and devices), or
caused by leakage of gas, oil, water or steam or by electricity emanating from
the leased premises except to the extent that the failure or cessation of any
service, which the Landlord is obligated to provide hereunder, is caused by the
negligence or intentional misconduct of the Landlord. Lessee agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless Lessor of and from any loss, attorney's fees,
expenses or claims arising out of any such damage or injury.
9
Landlord, its agents and employees shall not be liable, and Tenant hereby
waives its rights, if any, to claim for any damage or loss as a result of any
failure of the Building to comply strictly with the ADA as it applies to the
Building. Tenant hereby agrees to save, hold harmless and defend Landlord from
any claims, suits or liabilities made against the Landlord by any of Tenant's
existing or prospective clients, employees, agents, servants or invitees as a
result of or in connection with any non-compliance of the Premises with the ADA.
In the event of any failure of the Building to comply with the ADA, if such
alleged defect was not apparent at the date of execution hereof, and if such
failure substantially interferes with the operation of Tenant's business in the
Premises, Tenant's sole remedy shall be for termination of this Lease, provided
that, Tenant shall have no claim for termination of this Lease based on the non-
compliance with the ADA by the Building unless Tenant (i) promptly gives notice
of any such non-compliance and allows Landlord a reasonable time to correct any
such non-compliance, and (ii) if such compliance is not effected within a
reasonable time, Tenant gives no less than ninety (90) days prior written notice
of the termination date, Tenant actually vacates the Premises on or before such
termination date, and Tenant is in compliance with its obligations under this
Lease on the date the notice is given and on the termination date.
In case any claim, demand, action or proceeding is made or brought against
Landlord, its agents or employees, as a result of Tenant's default or alleged
default of any obligation on Tenant's part to be performed under the terms of
this Lease, or arising from any act, omission or negligence of Tenant, its
agents or employees, or which gives rise to Tenant's obligation to indemnify
Landlord, Tenant shall be responsible for all costs and expenses, including but
not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in defending or prosecution
of the same, as applicable.
7.05 Tenant's Insurance. Tenant shall, at its own cost, at all times
during the term of this Lease and any extensions hereof, procure and maintain

an amount sufficient to reimburse Tenant for direct and indirect loss of
earnings attributable to prevention of access to the Building or Premises as a
result of such perils, and such other forms and amounts of insurance as Landlord
or its mortgagee may reasonably require from time to time. All such insurance
shall be procured from a responsible insurance company or companies authorized
to do business in the State where the Premises are located, with general
policyholder's ratings of not less than "A-" and a financial rating of not less
than "VI" in the most current available Best's Insurance Reports, and shall be
otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. All such policies except Workers
Compensation shall name Landlord and Landlord's property management agent as
additional insureds, and shall provide that the same may not be canceled except

disclose that such insurance names Landlord and Landlord's designated property
management agent as an additional insured, in addition to the other requirements
set forth herein. The limits of such insurance shall not, under any

CONDEMNATION
------------
8.0 Condemnation
------------
8.01 Substantial Taking. If all or a substantial part of the leased
premises are taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental
law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain or by purchase in
lieu thereof, and the taking would prevent or materially interfere with the use
of the leased premises for the purpose for which it is then being used, this
Lease shall terminate and the rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion
of this Lease effective on the date physical possession is taken by the
condemning authority. Lessee shall have no claim to the condemnation award or

reduces the award to Lessor.
8.02 Partial Taking. If a portion of the leased premises shall be taken
for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance, or
regulation, or by right of eminent domain or by purchase in lieu thereof, and
this Lease is not terminated as provided in Section 8.01 above,
11
Lessor shall at Lessor's sole risk and expense, restore and reconstruct the
building and other improvements on the leased premises to the extent necessary
to make it reasonable tenantable. The rent payable under this Lease during this
unexpired portion of the term shall be adjusted to such an extent as may be fair
and reasonable under the circumstance. Lessee shall have no claim to the
condemnation award or proceeds in lieu thereof. Lessee shall have the right, in
a separate legal action, to make claim for its personal property so long as the
award in no way reduces the award to Lessor.
ARTICLE 9
ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE
----------------------
9.0 Assignment or Sublease
----------------------
9.01 Lessor Assignment. Lessor shall have the right to sell, transfer or
assign, in whole or in part, its rights and obligations under this Lease and in
the building. Any such sale, transfer or assignment shall operate to release
Lessor from any and all liabilities under this Lease arising after the date of
such sales, assignment or transfer.
9.02 Lessee Assignment. Lessee shall not assign, in whole or in part,
this Lease, or allow it to be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law
or otherwise (excluding the transfer of a majority interest of stock, or merger
which shall be deemed an assignment but will not require the consent of Landlord
provided Tenant notifies Lessor, in writing, at least thirty (30) days in
advance of the date on which Lessee desires to make such assignment) or mortgage
or pledge the same, or sublet the leased premises, in whole or in part, without
the prior written consent of Lessor (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), and in no event shall any such assignment or sublease ever
release Lessee or any guarantor from any obligation or liability hereunder. No
assignee or sublessee of the leased premises or any portion thereof may assign
or sublet the leased premises or any portion thereof.
9.03 Condition of Agreement. If Lessee desires to assign or sublet all
or any part of the leased premises, it shall so notify Lessor at least thirty
(30) days in advance of the date on which Lessee desires to make such assignment
or sublease. Lessee shall provide Lessor with a copy of the proposed assignment
or sublease and such information as Lessor might request concerning the proposed
sublessee or assignee to allow Lessor to make informed judgments as to the
financial condition, reputation, operations and general desirability of the
proposed sublessee or assignee. Within fifteen (15) days after Lessor's receipt
of Lessee's proposed assignment or sublease and all required information
concerning the proposed sublessee or assigner, Lessor shall have the following
options: (1) cancel this Lease as to the leased premises or portion thereof
proposed to be assigned or sublet; (2) consent to the proposed assignment or
sublease, and, if the rent due and payable by any assignee or sublessee under an
such permitted assignment or sublease (or a combination of the rent payable
under such assignment of sublease plus any bonus or any other consideration or
any payment incident thereto) exceeds the rent payable under this Lease for such
space, Lessee shall pay to Lessor one-half ( 1/2) of such excess rent and other
excess consideration within ten (10) days following receipt thereof by Lessee;
or (3) refuse, in its reasonable judgment, to consent to the proposed assignment
or sublease, which refusal shall be deemed to have been exercised unless Lessor
give Lessee written notice providing otherwise. Upon the occurrence of an event
of default, if all or any part of the leased premises are then assigned or
sublet, Lessor in addition to any other remedies provided by this Lease or
provided by law, may, at its option, collect directly from the assignee or
sublessee all rents becoming due to Lessee by reason of the assignment or
sublease, and Lessor shall have a security interest in all properties on the
leased premises
12
to secure payment of such sums. Any collection directly by Lessor from the
assignee or sublessee shall not be construed to constitute a novation or release
of Lessee or any guarantor from the further performance of its obligation under
this Lease.
9.04 Subordination. Lessee accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to
any recorded mortgage or deed of trust lien presently existing or hereafter
created upon the building or project and to all existing recorded restrictions,
covenants, easements and agreements with respect to the building or project.
Lessor is hereby irrevocably vested with full power and authority to subordinate
Lessee's interest under this Lease to any first mortgage or deed of trust lien
hereafter placed on the leased premises, and Lessee agrees upon demand to
execute additional instruments subordinating this Lease as Lessor may require.
If the interests of Lessor under this Lease shall be transferred by reason of
foreclosure or other proceedings for enforcement of any first mortgage or deed
of trust lien on the leased premises, Lessee shall be bound to the transferee
(sometimes call the "Purchaser") at the option of the Purchaser, under the
terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease for the balance of the term
remaining, including any extensions or renewals, with the same force and effect
as if the Purchaser were Lessor under this Lease, and, if requested by the
Purchaser, Lessee agrees to attorn to the Purchaser, including the first
mortgagee under any such mortgage if it be the Purchaser, as its Lessor.
9.05 Estoppel Certificates. Lessee agrees to furnish, from time to time,
within ten (10) days after receipt of a request from Lessor or Lessor's
mortgagee, a statement certifying, if applicable, the following: Lessee is in
possession of the leased premises; the leased premises are acceptable; the Lease
is in full force and effect, the Lease is unmodified; Lessee claims no present
charge, lien, or claim of offset against rent; the rent is paid for the current
month, but is not prepaid for more than one (1) month and will not be prepaid
for more than one (1) month in advance; there is no existing default by reason
of some act or omission by Lessor; and such other matters as may be reasonable
required by Lessor or Lessor's mortgagee. Lessee's failure to deliver such
statement, in addition to being a default under this Lease, shall be deemed to
establish conclusively that this Lease is in full force and effect except as
declared by Lessor, that Lessor is not in default of any of its obligations
under this Lease, and the Lessor has not received more than one month rent in
advance.

default set forth in this Lease, Lessor shall have the option to pursue any one
or more of the remedies set forth herein without any notice or demand. (1)
Lessor may enter upon and take possession of the leased premises, by picking or
changing locks if necessary, and lock out, expel or remove Lessee and any other
person who may be occupying all or any part of the leased premises without being
liable for any claim for damages, and relet the leased premises on behalf of
Lessee and all or any part of the leased premises without being liable for any
claim for damages, and relet the leased premises on behalf of Lessee and receive
the rent directly by reason of the reletting. Lessee agrees to pay Lessor on

premises; further, Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor for any expenditures made
by it in order to relet the leased premises, including, but not limited to
remodeling and repair costs. (2) Lessor may enter upon the leased premises,

to do under the terms of this Lease. Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor on
demand for any expenses which Lessor may incur in effecting compliance with

not be liable for any damages resulting to Lessee from effecting compliance with
Lessee's obligations under this Lease caused by the negligence of Lessor or
otherwise. (3) Lessor may terminate this Lease, in which event Lessee shall
immediately surrender the leased premises to Lessor, and if Lessee fails to
surrender the leased premises, Lessor may, without prejudice to any other remedy
which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take
possession of the leased premises, by picking or changing locks if necessary,
and lock out, expel or remove Lessee and any other person who; may be occupying
all or any part of the leased premises without being liable for any claim for
damages. Lessee agrees to pay on demand the amount of all loss and damage which
Lessor may suffer by reason of the termination of this Lease under this section,
whether through inability to relet the leased premises on satisfactory terms or
otherwise. Notwithstanding any other remedy set forth in this Lease, in the
event Lessor has made rent concessions of any type or character, or waived any
base rent, and Lessee fails to take possession of the leased premises on the
commencement or completion date or otherwise defaults at any time during the
term of this Lease, the rent concessions, including any waived base rent, shall
be canceled and the amount of the base rent or other rent concessions shall be
due and payable immediately as if no rent concessions or waiver of any base rent
had ever been granted. A rent concession or waiver of the base rent shall not
relieve Lessee of any obligation to pay any other charge due and payable under
this Lease including without limitation any sum due under Section 2.02.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, this Lease may
be terminated by Lessor only by mailing or delivering written notice of such
termination to Lessee, and no other act or omission of Lessor shall be construed
as a termination of this Lease.
