it may not be canceled or changed without at least thirty (30) days prior
written notice to Landlord. All repairs required to be made by Tenant shall be

affects the structural parts of the Building, or if the estimated cost of any
item of repair exceeds $10,000, then Tenant shall first obtain Landlord's
written approval of the scope of work, plans therefor, materials to be used and
the contractor. Tenant hereby waives the benefit of any statute now or
hereinafter in effect which would otherwise afford Tenant the right to make
repairs at Landlord's expense or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord's
failure to keep the Premises in good condition, order and repair. Tenant
specifically waives all rights it may have under Sections 1932(1), 1941, and
1942 of the California Civil Code, and any similar or successor statute or law.

shall be maintained and the expenditures therefor shall be determined by
Landlord. Landlord shall exercise reasonable diligence in performing such
repairs as soon as practicable. However, Landlord's obligation to make repairs
under this paragraph shall commence after Landlord's receipt of written notice
from Tenant of the need for such repairs. Except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, there shall be no
6
abatement of rent or other sums payable by Tenant prior to or during any repairs
by Tenant or Landlord. Landlord may enter into a preventive maintenance contract
with a qualified service company reasonably satisfactory to Landlord providing

Premises and other areas of the Building. Tenant's Share of the cost of these
preventive maintenance contracts shall be borne by the Tenant.

Property, and washing exterior windows and plate glass of the Building If the
Premises consist of the entire Building and the Building is the only building on
the Property, then Tenant shall at its sole cost perform such obligation. Such
obligation shall also specifically include painting the outside surface of the
exterior walls of the Building as and when necessary, as determined by Landlord
in its reasonable discretion. The manner in which such areas shall be maintained
and the expenditures therefor shall be at the sole discretion of Landlord
Tenant's Share of the cost of this maintenance shall be borne by the Tenant.
Landlord shall at all times have exclusive control of the
Outside Areas and may at any time temporarily close any part thereof, may
exclude and restrain anyone from any part thereof (except the bona fide
employees and invitees of Tenant), and Landlord may change the configuration of
the Outside Areas or the location of facilities thereon so long as any such
change by Landlord does not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of or
access to the Premises. Landlord shall also be entitled to employ third parties
to operate and maintain all or any part of such areas on such terms and
conditions as Landlord shall determine. In exercising any of Landlord's rights
hereunder, Landlord shall make a reasonable effort to minimize any disruption of
Tenant's business.
6.4 Tenant's Obligation to Reimburse. Tenant shall pay
Tenant's Share of all Direct Operating Expenses (as defined) as may be paid or
incurred by Landlord during the term of this Lease; provided, however, that if
the Property contains more than one building, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Share of
all Direct Operating Expenses fairly allocable to the Building as reasonably
determined by Landlord, and a proportionate share based on the Building Gross
Leasable Area as a percentage of the Property Gross Leasable Area, of all Direct
Operating Expenses which relate to the Property in general and are not fairly
allocable to any one building on the Property. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on
the first day of each calendar month during the period immediately following the
Commencement Date until the first December 1 thereafter a fraction of the amount
which Landlord estimates will be Tenant's Share of all Direct Operating Expenses
for such period, the numerator of which is the number of calendar months during
said period, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). Thereafter during the
lease term, on the first day of each calendar month during each twelve (12)
month period commencing January 1, Tenant shall pay to Landlord until the first
December 1 thereafter an amount estimated by Landlord to be one-twelfth of
Tenant's Share of the Direct Operating Expenses for such twelve (12) month
period. Within ninety (90) days following the end of each calendar year,
Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement covering the calendar year and the
payments made by Tenant with respect to such period as set forth in this
paragraph. If Tenant's payments for Tenant's Share of said Direct Operating
Expenses did not equal Tenant's Share of the actual amount of said Direct
Operating Expenses, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the deficiency within ten (10)
days after receipt of such statement. If said payments exceed the actual Direct
Operating Expense, Landlord shall refund the amount of the overpayments to
Tenant in cash within ten (10) days after Landlord sends such statement. Direct
Operating Expenses shall be prorated as of the Commencement Date and the
Expiration Date to reflect the portion of the calendar year occurring within the
Lease term. Tenant's Share of Direct Operating Expenses for the Initial Premises
are initially estimated to be $26,168.80 per month. Upon the Commencement Date
for the Expansion Premises, Tenant's obligation for Direct Operating Expenses
shall increase to a total monthly expense estimate of $77,000 per month. Tenant
shall have the right to review Landlord's calculations related to the operating
expense reconciliation once per year within three weeks after any reconciliation
is complete.

casualties or by the exercise of the power of eminent domain; (iii) costs of any

6.6 Tenant's Negligence. Notwithstanding anything in this Paragraph 6
to the contrary, and subject to the waiver of subrogation rights pursuant to
Paragraph 12.7, Tenant shall pay for the entire cost of maintaining and
repairing the Premises, the Building, the Common Areas, the Outside Areas and
any other portion of the Property if such cost is incurred and to the extent it
is incurred as a result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its
agents, customers, employees, contractors or invitees.
7. Alterations.
7.1 Landlord's Consent Required. Tenant shall not, without
Landlord's prior written consent, make any alterations, improvements, additions,
or utility installations (collectively the "alterations") in, on or about the
Premises, except for nonstructural alterations which in the aggregate do not
exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars $10,000 in cost during any twelve month
period during the Lease Term. As used in this Paragraph 7.1, the term "utility
installation" means power panels, wiring, florescent fixtures, space heaters,
conduits, air conditioning and plumbing. Should Tenant make any alterations
without the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall immediately remove
the same at Tenant's expense upon demand by Landlord. Any alterations made by
Tenant shall not interfere with the use or occupancy of the Building by any
other tenants nor interfere with the operation of any mechanical apparatus or
electrical or plumbing system in the Building.
7.2 Plans and Permits. Any alteration that Tenant desires to
make in or about the Premises and which requires the consent of Landlord shall
be presented to Landlord in written form, with proposed detailed plans and
specifications therefor prepared at Tenant's sole expense. Any consent by
Landlord thereto shall be deemed conditioned upon Tenant's acquisition of all
permits required to make such alteration from all appropriate governmental
agencies, the furnishing of copies thereof to Landlord prior to commencement of
the work, and the compliance by Tenant with all conditions of said permits in a
prompt and expeditious manner, all at Tenant's sole expense. Upon completion of
any such alteration, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost, shall immediately deliver to
Landlord "as-built" plans in ▇▇▇▇▇ form, and in digital form on disk if
available, and specifications therefor.
8
7.3 Construction Work Done by Tenant. All construction work
required or permitted to be done by Tenant shall be performed by a licensed
contractor in a prompt, diligent, and good and workmanlike manner and shall
conform in quality and design with the Premises existing as of the Commencement
Date, and shall not diminish the value of the Building or the Property. In
addition, all such construction work shall be performed in compliance with all
applicable statutes, ordinances, regulations, codes and orders of governmental
authorities and insurers of the Premises. Tenant or its agents shall secure all
licenses and permits necessary therefor.
7.4 Title to Alterations. Unless Landlord requires the removal
thereof as set forth in Paragraph 7.5, any alterations which may be made on the
Premises, shall upon installation or construction thereof become the property of
Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the
expiration or sooner termination of the term of this Lease. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, all heating, lighting, electrical (including all
wiring, conduits, main and subpanels), air conditioning, partitioning, drapery,
and carpet installations made by Tenant, regardless of how affixed to the
Premises, together with all other alterations that have become an integral part
of the Premises, shall be and become the property of Landlord upon installation,
and shall not be deemed trade fixtures, and shall remain upon and be surrendered
with the Premises at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Paragraph 7.5, Tenant's furnishings,
machinery and equipment, other than that which is affixed to the Premises so
that it cannot be removed without material damage to the Premises, shall remain
the property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant. Tenant shall immediately
after removal repair any damage to the Premises caused thereby at Tenant's
expense.
7.5 Removal of Alterations. Tenant shall ascertain from
Landlord within thirty (30) days before the end of the term of this Lease or
within five (5) days after sooner termination, thereof, whether Landlord desires
to have the Premises, or any part or parts thereof, restored to their condition
as of the commencement of this Lease. Landlord may elect, by notice to Tenant to
require Tenant to remove any alterations that Tenant has made to the Premises
and to restore the Premises as hereafter provided. If Landlord so elects, Tenant
shall, at its sole expense, upon expiration of the Lease term or within twenty
(20) days after any sooner termination thereof, remove such alterations, repair
any damage occasioned thereby, and restore the Premises to the condition
existing as of the Commencement Date, subject to normal wear and tear. The
obligations of Tenant set forth in this paragraph shall survive the termination
of this Lease. Tenant's trade fixtures, furniture, equipment and other personal
property installed in the Premises shall at all times be Tenant's property, and
Tenant may remove any or all of such property from the Premises at any time and
from time to time provided that Tenant repairs all damage caused by such
removal. Landlord shall have no lien or other interest whatsoever in any item of
such property, and Landlord waives all such liens and interest. Within ten (10)
days following Tenant's request from time to time, Landlord shall execute
documents in form reasonably acceptable to Tenant to evidence Landlord's waiver
of any right, title, lien or interest in any of such property and giving any
lenders holding a security interest or lien on such property reasonable rights
of access to the Premises to remove such property, provided that such lenders
repair all damage caused by such removal.
8. Mechanics' Liens. Tenant shall keep the Premises and the Property
free from any liens. If any claim of lien is recorded, Tenant shall bond against
or discharge the same within ten (10) days after the same has been recorded
against the Premises or the Property. Tenant shall give Landlord notice of the
date of commencement of any work in the Premises not less than ten (10) days
prior thereto, and Landlord shall have the right to post notices of
non-responsibility or similar notices in or on the Premises in connection
therewith.
9. Utilities and Services. Tenant shall pay all charges for water, gas,
electricity, telephone, central station monitor, refuse pickup, janitorial
services, and all other utilities and services supplied or furnished to the
Premises during the term of this Lease, together with any taxes thereon. Said
utilities may be supplied to Tenant in common with any other tenant(s) in the
Building, or at Landlord's option, be separately metered. If separately metered,
or if the Premises consist of the entire building Tenant shall pay all such
charges directly to the charging authority when due. If not separately metered,
Tenant shall pay its allocable portion based upon the ratio between the Premises
Gross Leasable Area and the total gross leasable square feet of space served by
the common utility. However, if Landlord determines that Tenant is using a
disproportionate amount of any utility service not separately metered, then
Landlord may either install a separate meter to measure the utility service, at
Tenant's cost, or charge Tenant a sum equal to Landlord's reasonable estimate of
the cost of Tenant's excess use of such utility service. Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord on a monthly basis for Landlord's actual cost in furnishing
9
utilities and services to the Premises within ten (10) days after Tenant
receives an invoice from Landlord and in no event shall Landlord be liable to
Tenant for any such failure or interruption unless caused by the misconduct of
Landlord. No failure or interruption of any such utilities or services shall
entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or to withhold rent or other sums due
hereunder and unless otherwise specifically provided herein. Landlord shall not
be responsible for providing security guards or other security protection for
all or any portion of the Premises or the Property, and Tenant shall at its own
expense provide or obtain such security services as Tenant shall desire to
ensure the safety of the Premises and the Property.
10. Indemnity. Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord and holds Landlord
harmless from and against any and all claims for damage, loss, expense or
liability due to, but not limited to, bodily injury, including death resulting
at any time therefrom, and/or property damage, now or hereafter arising from any
act, work or things done, or any omission to act, in or about the Premises, by
Tenant or by any of Tenant's agents, employees, contractors, or invitees, or
from any breach or default by Tenant in the performance of any obligation on the
part of Tenant to be performed under the terms of this Lease, except to the
extent such damage, loss, expense or liability is caused by the sole negligence
or willful misconduct of Landlord or its employees or agents. Tenant shall also
indemnify Landlord from and against all damage, loss, expense (including without
limitation, attorneys' fees), and liability incurred or suffered by Landlord in
the defense of or arising out of or resulting from any such claim or any action
or proceeding brought thereon. In the event any action or proceeding shall be
brought against Landlord by reason of any such claim, Tenant upon notice from
Landlord shall defend the same at Tenant's expense by counsel reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord. The obligations of Tenant contained in this paragraph
shall survive the termination of this Lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be released or
indemnified from, and shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Tenant
from and against, all losses, costs, claims, liabilities, and damages (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) arising from the negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord or its agents, contractors, or invitees in the
performance of Landlord's obligations under the terms of this lease.
11. Waiver of Claims. Tenant hereby waives any claims against Landlord
for injury to Tenant's business or any loss of income therefrom or for damage to
the goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Tenant, or for injury or
death of Tenant's agents, employees, invitees, or any other person in or about
the Premises from any cause whatsoever, except to the extent caused by
Landlord's negligence or willful misconduct, or that of its employees, agents,
or contractors.
12. Insurance.
12.1 Tenant's Liability Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenant's
expense, obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease, a policy of
commercial general liability insurance insuring Landlord and Tenant against any
liability arising out of the condition, use, occupancy or maintenance of the
Premises. Such policy of insurance shall have a combined single limit for both
bodily injury and property damage in an amount not less than Three Million
Dollars ($3,000,000). The policy shall insure performance by Tenant of the
indemnity provisions of Paragraph 10. The limits of said insurance shall not,
however, limit the liability of Tenant hereunder. Not more frequently than once
each calendar year if, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, the amount of
liability insurance required hereunder is not consistent with reasonably prudent
business practices in Alameda County, Tenant shall increase said insurance
coverage as reasonably required by Landlord.
12.2 Tenant's Property Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenant's
sole expense, obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease, a policy
of fire and extended coverage insurance including a standard "all risk"
endorsement, and a sprinkler leakage endorsement (if the Premises shall be
sprinklered), insuring the inventory, fixtures, equipment, personal property,
and leasehold improvements and alterations of Tenant within the Premises other
than the initial Tenant Improvements for the full replacement value thereof, as
the same may increase from time to time due to inflation or otherwise. The
proceeds from any of such policies shall be used for the repair or replacement
of such items so insured and Landlord shall have no interest in the proceeds of
such insurance.
12.3 Landlord's Liability Insurance. Landlord may maintain a
policy or policies of commercial general liability insurance insuring Landlord
(and such other entities as may be designated
10
by Landlord) against liability for personal injury, bodily injury or death and
damage to property occurring or resulting from an occurrence in, on, or about
the Property with a combined single limit of not less than Three Million Dollars
($3,000,000), or such greater coverage as Landlord may from time to time
determine is reasonably necessary for its protection.
12.4 Property Insurance. Landlord shall obtain and keep in
force during the term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance for the
benefit of Landlord and Tenant covering loss or damage to the Building, the
Common Areas, and the Outside Areas, for full replacement cost, but excluding
coverage of merchandise, fixtures, and equipment, and leasehold improvements of
Tenant, which are not considered part of the real estate for insurance purposes,
in the amount of the full replacement value thereof, providing protection
against all perils included within the classification of fire, extended
coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended perils (all risk),
including (at Landlord's sole discretion) earthquake (provided that earthquake
insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates) boiler and machinery
coverage (if applicable) and an inflation endorsement. In addition, Landlord
shall obtain and keep in force, during the term of this Lease, a policy of
rental loss insurance covering a period of one year, commencing on the date of
loss, with proceeds payable to Landlord, which insurance shall also cover all
Real Property Taxes, Direct Operating Expenses, insurance premiums, and other
sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder for said period. The insurance
coverage shall include sprinkler leakage insurance if the Building contains fire
sprinklers. All proceeds under such policies of insurance shall be payable to
Landlord, and Tenant shall have no interest in or right to such proceeds. The
cost of any increase in property insurance coverage specifically caused by
Tenant's particular use of the Premises shall be borne by the tenant causing the
increase.
12.5 Payment Tenant shall pay to Landlord during the term
hereof Tenant's Share of the premiums for any insurance obtained by Landlord
pursuant to Paragraphs 12.3 and 12.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord
may obtain liability insurance and property insurance for the Building
separately, or together with other buildings and improvements under blanket
policies of insurance. In such case Tenant shall be liable for only such portion
of the premiums for such blanket policies as are allocable to the Premises, as
reasonably determined by the insurer or Landlord. Tenant shall pay such premiums
to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of a copy of the
premium statement or other reasonable evidence of the amount due. If the term of
this Lease does not expire concurrently with the expiration of the period
covered by such insurance, Tenant's liability for premiums shall be prorated on
an annual basis.
12.6 Insurance Policies. The insurance required to be obtained
by Tenant pursuant to Paragraphs 12.1 and 12.2, and Paragraph 12.4 if Tenant is
the insuring party thereunder, shall be primary insurance and (a) shall provide
that the insurer shall be liable for the full amount of the loss up to and
including the total amount of liability set forth in the declarations without
the right of contribution from any other insurance coverage of Landlord, (b)
shall be in a form satisfactory to Landlord, and shall be carried with companies
acceptable to Landlord, and (d) shall specifically provide that such policies
shall not be subject to cancellation, reduction of coverage or other change
except after at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord. The
policy or policies, or duly executed certificates for them, together with
satisfactory evidence of payment of the premium thereon, shall be deposited with
Landlord on or prior to the Commencement Date, and upon each renewal of such
policies, which shall be effected not less than, thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration date of the term of such coverage. Tenant shall not do or permit to
be done anything which shall invalidate any of the insurance policies to be
carried by Tenant or Landlord hereunder.
12.7 Waiver of Subrogation. Tenant and Landlord each hereby
waive any and all rights of recovery against the other, or against the officers,
employees, agents and representatives of the other, for loss of or damage to the
property of the waiving party or the property of others under its control, where
such loss or damage is insured against under any insurance policy carried by
Landlord or Tenant and in force at the time of such loss or damage, or required
to be insured against hereunder. Tenant and Landlord shall, upon obtaining the
policies of insurance required hereunder, give notice to the insurance carrier
or carriers that the foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is contained in this
Lease. All of Landlord's and Tenant's repair and indemnity obligations under
this Lease shall be subject to the waiver and release in this Paragraph.
12.8 No Limitation of Liability. Landlord makes no
representation that the limits of liability specified to be carried by Tenant or
Landlord under the terms of this Lease are adequate to protect any party. If
Tenant believes that the insurance coverage required under this Lease is
insufficient to adequately protect Tenant, Tenant shall provide, at its own
expense, such additional insurance as Tenant deems adequate.
11
12.9 Impounding of Premiums. If Landlord's lender requires
Landlord to pay insurance premiums into an impound account on a periodic basis
during the term of this Lease, Tenant, upon notice from Landlord indicating this
requirement, shall pay a sum of money toward its liabilities under this
Paragraph 12 to Landlord on a periodic basis in accordance with the lender's
requirements.
13. Damage or Destruction.
13.1 Partial Damage-Insured. Subject to the provisions of
Paragraphs 13.3 and 13.4, if the Premises or the Building, as the case may be,
are damaged to the extent of less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the then
replacement value thereof (excluding excavations and foundations with respect to
the Building), and such damage was caused by an act or casualty covered under an
insurance policy required to be maintained pursuant to Paragraph 12.4, and the
proceeds of such insurance received by Landlord are sufficient to repair the
damage, Landlord shall at Landlord's expense repair such damage as soon as
reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect.
13.2 Partial Damage-Uninsured. Subject to the provisions of
Paragraphs 13.3 and 13.4, if at any time during the term hereof the Premises or
the Building, as the case may be, are damaged and the proceeds received by
Landlord are not sufficient to repair such damage, or such damage was caused by
an act or casualty not covered under an insurance policy required to be
maintained by Landlord pursuant to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇.▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may at Landlord's
option either (a) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at
Landlord's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect, or (b) give written notice of termination of this Lease to Tenant within
thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage, with the
effective date of such termination to be the date of the occurrence of such
damage. In the event Landlord gives such notice of termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall have the right, within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice,
to agree in writing on a basis satisfactory to Landlord to pay for the entire
cost of repairing such damage less only the amount of insurance proceeds, if
any, received by Landlord, in which event the notice of termination shall be
ineffective and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Landlord
shall proceed to make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible. If Tenant
does not give such notice within such ten (10) day period this Lease shall be
terminated pursuant to such notice of termination by Landlord.
13.3 Partial Damage-Uninsured. If at any time during the term
hereof either the Premises or the Building is destroyed to the extent of
seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the then replacement value thereof
(excluding excavations and foundations with respect to the Building), from any
cause wether or not covered by the insurance maintained pursuant to Paragraph
12.4, this Lease shall at the option of Landlord terminate as of the date of
such destruction. Landlord shall exercise its right to terminate this Lease by
delivery of notice of termination to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the
date that Tenant notifies Landlord of the occurrence of such damage. In the
event Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall at
Landlord's expense repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible, and this
Lease shall continue in full force and effect.
13.4 Damage Near End of Term. If the Premises are destroyed or
damaged in whole or in part during the last six (6) months of the term of this
Lease, Landlord may at Landlord's option cancel and terminate this Lease as of
the date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Tenant of
Landlord's selection to do so within thirty (30) days after the date of
occurrence of such damage.
13.5 Abatement of Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Paragraph 13.3 or elsewhere in this Lease, if the Premises
are partially damaged and Landlord repairs or restores them pursuant to the
provisions of this Paragraph 13, the rent, including Tenant's Share of Direct
Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes, and insurance premiums, payable
hereunder for the period commencing on the occurrence of such damage and ending
upon completion of such repair or restoration shall be abated in proportion to
the extent to which Tenant's use of the Premises is impaired during the period
of repair; provided that, nothing herein shall be construed to preclude Landlord
from being entitled to collect the full amount of any rental loss insurance
proceeds Except for abatement of rent, if any, Tenant shall have no claim
against Landlord for any damage suffered by reason of any such damage,
destruction, repair or restoration.
13.6 Waiver. Tenant waives the provisions of California Civil
Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4), and any similar or successor statutes
relating to termination of leases when the thing leased is substantially or
entirely destroyed, and agrees that any such occurrence shall instead be
governed by the terms of this Lease.
12
13.7 Tenant's Property. Landlord's obligation to rebuild or
restore shall not include restoration of Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment,
merchandise, or any improvements, alterations or additions made by Tenant to the
Premises (but shall include the initial Tenant Improvements).
13.8 Notice of Damage. Tenant shall notify Landlord within
five (5) days after the occurrence thereof of any damage to all or any portion
of the Premises. Landlord's obligation to repair or restore the Premises
pursuant to this Paragraph 13 shall commence after Landlord's receipt of notice
from Tenant of the nature and scope of any damage to the Premises, and a
reasonable period of time to collect insurance proceeds arising from such damage
(unless such damage is clearly not covered by insurance then in effect covering
the Premises).
13.9 Replacement Cost. The determination in good faith by
Landlord of the estimated cost of repair of any damage, or of the replacement
cost, shall be conclusive for purposes of this Paragraph 13.
13.10 Tenant Termination Right: Notwithstanding anything in
this Lease to the contrary, if the Premises or any portion of the
Building is damaged by any casualty whatsoever, then Tenant shall have
the option to terminate this Lease if the Premises cannot reasonably
be, or are not in fact, fully restored by Landlord to their prior
condition within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such
damage.
14. Condemnation.
14.1 Partial Taking. If the floor area of the Premises is
taken for any public or quasi-public use, under any statute or right of eminent
domain (collectively a "taking"), this Lease shall, as to the part so taken,
terminate as of the date the condemnor or purchaser takes possession of the
property being taken, and the rent payable hereunder shall be reduced in the
same proportion that the floor area of the portion of the Premises so taken
bears to the original floor area of the Premises. Landlord shall, at its own
cost and expense, make all necessary alterations to the Premises in order to
make the portion of the Premises not taken a complete architectural unit. Such
work shall not, however, exceed the scope of the work done by Landlord in
originally constructing the Premises. Each party hereto waives the provisions of
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to
petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial
taking of the Premises.
14.2 Total Taking. If more than fifty percent (50%) of the
floor area of the Premises is taken, then any such taking shall be treated as a
total taking, and this Lease shall terminate upon the date possession shall be
taken by the condemning authority.
14.3 Distribution of Award. If a part or all of the Premises
is taken, all compensation awarded upon such taking shall belong to and be paid
to Landlord, except that Tenant shall receive from the award a sum attributable
to Tenant's movable property or trade fixtures on the Premises which Tenant has
the right to remove from the Premises pursuant to the provisions of this Lease,
but elects not to remove; or, if Tenant elects to remove any such property or
trade fixtures, Tenant shall receive a sum for reasonable removal and relocation
costs not to exceed the market value thereof on the date possession of the
Premises is taken,
14.4 Sale Under Threat of Condemnation. A sale by Landlord to
any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of
condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be deemed a
taking under the power of eminent domain for purposes of this Paragraph 14.
15. Assignment and Subletting. Tenant shall not assign this Lease, or
any interest therein, voluntarily or involuntarily, and shall not sublet the
Premises or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or
allow any other person (the agents and servants of Tenant excepted) to occupy or
use the Premises, or any portion thereof, without the prior written consent of
Landlord in each instance pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth below,
which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. Neither the use by, or the
subletting to, any subsidiary or parent company of Tenant of all or any portion
of the Premises shall be deemed an Assignment or Sublease under this Lease.
15.1 Documentation. Prior to any assignment or sublease which
Tenant desires to make, Tenant shall provide to Landlord the name and address of
the proposed assignee or sublessee, and true and complete copies of all
documents relating to Tenant's prospective agreement to assign or sublease, and
shall specify all consideration to be received by Tenant for such assignment or
sublease in the form
13
of lump sum payments, installments of rent, or otherwise. For purposes of this
Paragraph 15, the term "consideration" shall include, without limitation, all
monies or other consideration of any kind, including but not limited to, bonus
money, and payments (in excess of book value thereof) for Tenant's assets,
fixtures, inventory, accounts, good will, equipment, furniture, general
intangibles, and capital stock or other equity ownership of Tenant. Within
thirty (30) days after the receipt of such documentation and other information,
Landlord shall either (a) consent in writing to the proposed assignment or
sublease subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, or (b)
notify Tenant in writing that Landlord refuses such consent, specifying
reasonable grounds for such refusal.
15.2 Terms and Conditions. As a condition to Landlord's
granting its consent to any assignment or sublease, (a) Landlord may require
that Tenant pay to Landlord, after first deducting the costs associated with the
sublease, as and when received by Tenant, all of the amount of any excess of
such consideration, to be received by Tenant in connection with said assignment
or sublease over and above the rental amount fixed by this Lease and payable by
Tenant to Landlord, and after deducting brokerage commissions and tenant
improvement costs payable by Tenant in connection with such transfer and (b)
Tenant and the proposed assignee or sublessee must demonstrate to Landlord's
reasonable satisfaction that the assignee or sublessee is financially
responsible and proposes to use the Premises for the permitted use or a use
which is otherwise satisfactory to Landlord, and which is not injurious to the
Premises. Each assignment or sublease agreement to which Landlord has consented
shall be an instrument in writing in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord,
and shall be executed by both Tenant and the assignee or sublessee, as the case
may be. Each such assignment or sublease agreement shall recite that it is and
shall be subject and subordinate to the provisions of this Lease, that the
assignee or sublessee accepts such assignment or sublease and agrees to perform
all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder (to the extent such obligations
relate to the portion of the Premises assigned or subleased), and that the
termination of this Lease shall, at Landlord's sole election, constitute a
termination of every such assignment or sublease. In the event Landlord shall
consent to an assignment or sublease, Tenant shall nonetheless remain primarily
liable for all obligations and liabilities of Tenant under this Lease, including
but not limited to the payment of rent. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord upon
demand for reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord in connection with
the negotiation, review, and documentation of any such requested assignment or
sublease. Tenant hereby stipulates that the foregoing terms and conditions are
reasonable.
15.3 Partnership. If Tenant is a partnership, a transfer,
voluntary or involuntary, of all or any part of an interest in the partnership,
or the dissolution of the partnership, shall be deemed an assignment requiring
Landlord's prior written consent.
15.4 Corporation. If Tenant is a corporation, any dissolution,
merger, consolidation, or other reorganization of Tenant, or the transfer,
either all at once or in a series of transfers, of a controlling percentage of
the capital stock of Tenant, or the sale, or series of sales within any one (1)
year period, of all or substantially all of Tenant's assets located in, on, or
about the Premises, shall be deemed an assignment. The phrase "controlling
percentage" means the ownership of, and the right to vote, stock possessing at
least fifty-one percent (51%) of the total combined voting power of all classes
of Tenant's capital stock issued, outstanding, and entitled to vote for the
election of directors. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to
Tenant if Tenant is a corporation the stock of which is listed on a national
securities exchange (as this term is used in the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended) or is publicly traded on the over-the-counter market and
prices therefor are published daily on business days in a recognized financial
journal. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to Tenant if Tenant
provides Landlord with sufficient written confirmation and assurances of (I) the
continuation of Tenant's lease obligations and (ii) no materially adverse change
in Tenant's financial condition, subsequent to any change in ownership of Tenant
as provided in this paragraph
15.5 Landlord's Remedies. Any assignment or sublease without
Landlord's prior written consent shall at Landlord's election be void, and shall
constitute a default. The consent by Landlord to any assignment or sublease
shall not constitute a waiver of the provisions of this Paragraph 15, including
the requirement of Landlord's prior written consent, with respect to any
subsequent assignment or sublease. If Tenant shall purport to assign this Lease
or sublease all or any portion of the Premises, or permit any person or persons
other than Tenant to occupy the Premises, without Landlord's prior written
consent, Landlord may collect rent from the person or persons then or thereafter
occupying the Premises and apply the net amount collected to the rent reserved
herein, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord's rights and
remedies under this Paragraph 15 or the acceptance of any such purported
assignee, sublessee or occupant, or a release of Tenant from the further
performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained.
14
15.6 Encumbrances, Licenses and Concession Agreements. Tenant
shall not encumber its interest under this lease or any rights of Tenant
hereunder, or enter into any license or concession agreement respecting all or
any portion of the Premises, without Landlord's prior written consent which
consent shall not unreasonably be withheld subject to the terms and conditions
referred to in Paragraph 15.2 above, and Tenant's granting of any such
encumbrance, license, or concession agreement shall constitute an assignment for
purposes of this Paragraph 15.
16. Default by Tenant.
16.1 Event of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of
the following events (an "Event of Default"), shall constitute a default and
breach of this Lease by Tenant:
(a) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent
or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due,
and such failure shall not have been cured within three (3) days after written
notice thereof from Landlord;
(b) Tenant's failure to perform any other term,
covenant or condition contained in this Lease and such failure shall have
continued for thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure is given to
Tenant; provided that, where such failure cannot reasonably be cured within said
thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not be in default if Tenant commences such
cure within said thirty (30) day period, and thereafter diligently continues to
pursue all reasonable efforts to complete said cure until completion thereof;
(c) Tenant's abandonment of the Premises.
(d) Tenant's assignment of its assets for the benefit
of its creditors other than in the ordinary course of business;
(e) The sequestration of, attachment of, or execution
on, any substantial part of the property of Tenant or on any property essential
to the conduct of Tenant's business on the Premises, and Tenant shall have
failed to obtain a return or release on such property within sixty (60) days
thereafter, or prior to sale pursuant to such sequestration, attachment or
execution, whichever is earlier;
(f) An entry of any of the following orders by a
court having jurisdiction, and such order shall have continued for a period of
sixty (60) days: (1) an order for relief in any proceeding under Title 11 of the
United States Code, or an order adjudicating Tenant to be bankrupt or insolvent;
(2) an order appointing a receiver, trustee or assignee of Tenant's property in
bankruptcy or any other proceeding; or (3) an order directing the winding up or
liquidation of Tenant; or
(g) The filing of a petition to commence against
Tenant an involuntary proceeding under Title 11 of the United States Code, and
Tenant shall fail to cause such petition to be dismissed within sixty (60) days
thereafter.
16.2 Remedies. Upon any Event of Default, Landlord shall have
the following remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by
law or equity:
(a) Landlord shall be entitled to keep this Lease in
full force and effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right
to possession (whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises) and
Landlord may enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including
the right to recover rent and other sums as they become due under this Lease,
plus interest at the lower of five percent (5%) per annum plus the discount rate
of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, or the highest rate then allowed
by law, from the due date of each installment of rent or other sum until paid;
or
(b) Landlord may terminate the Tenant's right to
possession by giving Tenant written notice of termination. On the giving of the
notice, this Lease and all of Tenant's rights in the Premises shall terminate.
Any termination under this paragraph shall not release Tenant from the payment
of any sum then due Landlord or from any claim for damages or rent previously
accrued or then accruing against Tenant.
In the event this Lease is terminated pursuant to
this Paragraph 16.2(b), Landlord may recover from Tenant:
15
(1) the worth at the time of award of the
unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination; plus
(2) the worth at the time of award of the
amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination
until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same
period that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(3) the worth at the time of award of the
amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same period that Tenant
proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(4) any other amount necessary to compensate
Landlord for all the detriment approximately caused by Tenant's failure to
perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease, or which in the ordinary course
of things would be likely to result therefrom.
The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts
referred to in Subparagraphs (1) and (2) of this Paragraph 16.2(b) shall be
computed by allowing interest at the lower of five percent (5%) per annum plus
the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, or the maximum
rate then permitted by law. The "worth at the time of award" of the amount
referred to in Subparagraph (3) of this paragraph shall be computed by
discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco at the time of award plus five percent (5%). The term, "rent" as used
in this paragraph shall include all sums required to be paid by Tenant to
Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease.
(c) This Lease may be terminated by a judgment
specifically providing for termination, or by Landlord's delivery to Tenant of
written notice specifically terminating this Lease. In no event shall any one or
more of the following actions by Landlord, in the absence of a written election
by Landlord to terminate this Lease, constitute a termination of this Lease or a
waiver of Landlord's right to recover damages under this Paragraph 16:
(1) appointment of a receiver in order to
protect Landlord's interest hereunder;
(2) consent to any subletting of the
Premises or assignment of this Lease by Tenant, whether pursuant to provisions
hereof concerning subletting and assignment or otherwise; or
(3) any other action by Landlord or
Landlord's agents intended to mitigate the adverse effects of any breach of this
Lease by Tenant, including without limitation any action taken to maintain and
preserve the Premises, or any action taken to relet the Premises or any portion
thereof for the account of Tenant and in the name of Tenant.
16.3 No Relief From Forfeiture After Default. Tenant waives
all rights of redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code of
Civil Procedure Sections 1174 and 1179, and under any other present or future
law, in the event Tenant is evicted or Landlord otherwise lawfully takes
possession of the Premises by reason of any Event of Default.
16.4 Landlord's Right to Perform Tenant's Obligations. If
Tenant shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other act
required to be made or performed by Tenant under this Lease within the time
periods provided herein, then Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make
such payment or perform such other act to the extent Landlord may deem
desirable, and may, in connection therewith, pay any and all expenses incidental
thereto and employ counsel. No such action by Landlord shall be deemed a waiver
by Landlord of any rights or remedies Landlord may have as a result of such
failure by Tenant, or a release of Tenant from performance of such obligation.
All sums so paid by Landlord, including without limitation all penalties,
interest and costs in connection therewith, shall be due and payable by Tenant
to Landlord on the day immediately following any such payment by Landlord.
Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies for the nonpayment of any such
sums as Landlord may be entitled to in the case of default by Tenant in the
payment of rent.
16.5 Interest on Past Due Obligations. Any amount due to
Landlord hereunder not paid when due shall bear interest at the lower of five
percent (5%) per annum plus the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco, or the highest rate then allowed by law, from the date due until
16
paid in full. Payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by
Tenant under this Lease.
16.6 Additional Rent. All sums payable by Tenant to Landlord
or to third parties under this Lease in addition to such sums payable pursuant
to Paragraph 3 hereof shall be payable as additional sums of rent. For purposes
of any unlawful detainer action by Landlord against Tenant pursuant to
California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1161-1174, or any similar or
successor statutes, Landlord shall be entitled to recover as rent not only such
sums specified in Paragraph 3 as may then be overdue, but also all such
additional sums of rent as may then be overdue.
16.7 Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy or election hereunder
shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all
other remedies herein provided or permitted at law or in equity.
17. Default by Landlord.
17.1 Cure Period. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in
default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by it
hereunder unless and until it has failed to perform such obligation within the
period of time specifically provided herein, or if no period of time has been
provided, then within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice by
Tenant to Landlord specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such
obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligation is
such that more than fifteen (15) days are reasonably required for its
performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if it shall
commence such performance within such fifteen (15) day period and thereafter
diligently prosecute the same to completion.
17.2 Mortgagee Protection. In the event of any default on the
part of Landlord, Tenant will give notice by registered or certified mail to any
beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgagee of a mortgage encumbering the
Premises whose address shall have been furnished to Tenant, and before Tenant
shall have any right to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall grant such
beneficiary or mortgagee a reasonable period within which to cure the default,
if such action is necessary to effect a cure.
18. Advertisements and Signs. Tenant shall not place or permit to be
placed any sign, display, advertisement, or decoration (collectively "sign") on
the exterior of the Building or elsewhere on the Property without the prior
written consent of Landlord as to the color, size, style, character, content,
and location of each such sign. Tenant shall at its sole expense comply with all
codes, ordinances, regulations, and other requirements of applicable
governmental authority relating to any sign Tenant places on or about the
Premises. Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all signs which it
has placed on or about the Property, and shall repair any damage caused by the
installation or removal of each such sign. Landlord shall not unreasonably
withhold, condition or delay its approval of any Tenant signage. Tenant shall
have the right to Tenant's share of all monument and building signage associated
with the Building.
19. Entry by Landlord. Landlord and its agents shall be entitled to
enter into and upon the Premises at all reasonable times, upon reasonable notice
(except in the case of an emergency, in which event no notice shall be
required), for purposes of inspecting or making repairs, alterations or
additions to all or any portion thereof, or any other part of the Building (if
the Premises comprise only a portion of the Building), including the erection
and maintenance of such scaffolding, canopies, fences and props as may be
required, or for the purpose of posting notices of non-responsibility for
alterations, additions, or repairs, and during the one hundred eighty (180) day
period prior to the expiration of this Lease, to place upon the Premises any
usual or ordinary "for lease" signs and exhibit the Premises to prospective
tenants at reasonable hours, all without any abatement of rent and without
liability to Tenant for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with
Tenant's business, quiet enjoyment of the Premises, or any other loss occasioned
thereby. Landlord's rights of entry as set forth in this paragraph shall be
subject to the reasonable security regulations of Tenant. During any entry
within Tenant's business hours, Landlord shall act in a manner designed to
minimize interference with Tenant's business activities on the Premises.
20. Subordination and Attornment.
20.1 Subordination. Tenant agrees that this Lease may, at the
option of Landlord, be subject and subordinate to any mortgage, deed of trust,
or other instrument of security now of record or which is recorded after the
date of this Lease affecting all or any portion of the Premises, and such
subordination is hereby made effective without any further act of Tenant. Tenant
shall execute and
17
return to Landlord any documents reasonably required by the lender to accomplish
the purposes of this paragraph, within seven (7) days after delivery thereof to
Tenant and the failure of Tenant to execute and return any such instrument shall
constitute a default hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subordination
of Tenant's rights and interests under this Lease to any mortgage or deed of
trust shall be contingent upon Tenant's having received from any such mortgagee
or beneficiary of any deed of trust a written recognition agreement in form
reasonably satisfactory to Tenant providing that Tenant's rights and interest
shall not be disturbed in the event of any foreclosure of any such mortgage or
deed of trust and confirming that Tenant shall receive all of the rights and
services provided for under this Lease. Prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord
shall obtain and deliver to Tenant such a recognition and non-disturbance
agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Tenant from each mortgagee or
beneficiary of any deed of trust then encumbering the Building.
20.2 Attornment. Tenant shall attorn to any third party
purchasing or otherwise acquiring the Premises at any sale or other proceeding,
or pursuant to the exercise of any rights, powers or remedies under any
mortgages or deeds of trust or ground leases now or hereafter encumbering all or
any part of the Premises, as if such third party had been named as Landlord
under this Lease.
21. Estoppel Certificates and Financial Statements. Tenant shall within
seven (7) days following request by Landlord: (a) execute and deliver to
Landlord any documents, including estoppel certificates, in the form presented
to Tenant by Landlord (1) certifying that this Lease has not been modified or,
if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this
Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect; (2) stating the date to
which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if at all; (3)
acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults on
the part of Landlord hereunder, or if there are uncured defaults on the part of
Landlord, stating the nature of such uncured defaults; and (4) evidencing the
status of this Lease as may be required either by a lender making a loan to
Landlord to be secured by a deed of trust or mortgage encumbering the Premises
or a purchaser of the Premises from Landlord; and (b), deliver to Landlord the
readily available current financial statements of Tenant with an opinion of a
certified public accountant, if available, including a balance sheet and profit
and loss statement for the then current fiscal year, and the two (2) immediately
prior fiscal years (if available), all prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied. Tenant's failure to deliver
any such documents, including an estoppel certificate, or any such financial
statements within fourteen (14) days following such request shall be an Event of
Default under this Lease.
22. Notices. Any notice, approval, request, demand, or consent
(collectively "notice") required or desired to be given under this Lease shall
be in writing and shall be personally served, delivered by United States mail,
registered or certified, postage prepaid, delivered by other courier service,
sent by tele fax or e-mail followed by delivery via mail, and addressed to the
party to be served at the last address given by that party to the other party
under the provisions of this paragraph. At the date of execution of this Lease,
the addresses of Landlord and Tenant are as set forth above in the preamble to
this Lease. Any notice delivered by mail pursuant to this paragraph shall be
deemed to have been delivered three (3) business days after the posted date of
mailing. All other notices shall be deemed delivered upon actual receipt by the
addressee.
23. Waiver. The waiver by either party of any breach of any term,
covenant, or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of
such term, covenant or condition for any subsequent breach of the same or any
other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of
rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding
breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than
the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of
Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such
rent. No term, covenant or condition shall be deemed to have been waived by
either party unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party making
such waiver.
24. No Accord and Satisfaction. No payment by Tenant, or receipt by
Landlord, of an amount which is less than the full amount of rent and all other
sums payable by Tenant hereunder at such time shall be deemed to be other than
on account of (a) the earliest of such other sums due and payable, and
thereafter (b) to the earliest rent due and payable hereunder. No endorsement or
statement on any check or any letter accompanying any payment of rent or such
other sums shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept
any such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to receive
payment of the balance of such rent and/or other sums, or Landlord's right to
pursue any remedies to which Landlord may be entitled to recover such balance.
25. Attorneys' Fees. If any action or proceeding at law or in equity,
or an arbitration proceeding
18
(collectively an "action"), shall be brought to recover any rent under this
Lease, or for or on account of any breach of or to enforce or interpret any of
the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Lease, or for the recovery of
possession of the Premises, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
from the other party as a part of such action, or in a separate action brought
for that purpose, its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs and expenses incurred
in connection with the prosecution or defense of such action. "Prevailing Party"
within the meaning of this paragraph shall include, without limitation, a party
who brings an action against the other after the other is in breach or default,
if such action is dismissed upon the other's payment of the sums allegedly due
for performance of the covenants allegedly breached, or if the party commencing
such action or proceeding obtains substantially the relief sought by it in such
action, whether or not, such action proceeds to a final judgment or
determination.
26. Surrender. Tenant shall, upon expiration or sooner termination of
this Lease, surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as existed
on the date Tenant originally took possession thereof (reasonable wear and tear,
acts of God, casualties, condemnation, Hazardous Materials (other than those
released or emitted by Tenant), and alterations and improvements which Tenant is
not required to remove at the termination of this Lease, and damage due to
causes beyond the reasonable control of Tenant excepted) with all interior walls
cleaned, all interior painted surfaces repainted in the original color, if
necessary, all holes in walls repaired, all carpets shampooed and cleaned, all
HVAC equipment servicing only the Premises in operating order and in good
repair, and all floors cleaned and waxed, all to the reasonable satisfaction of
Landlord. Tenant shall at such time also surrender to Landlord such alterations
(to the Premises) as Landlord does not require Tenant to remove in accordance
with Paragraph 7.6 above. Tenant, on or before the expiration or sooner
termination of this Lease, shall remove all of its personal property and trade
fixtures from the Premises and all property so removed shall be deemed abandoned
by Tenant. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for costs of removal of any such
abandoned trade fixtures or equipment of Tenant, or of any alterations Tenant
fails to remove if so required by Landlord, together with the cost of returning
the Premises to its condition as of the date Tenant originally took possession
thereof, and the transportation and storage costs of such items. If the Premises
are not so surrendered at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from delay
by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises, including without limitation, any
claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay, losses to Landlord
due to lost opportunities to lease to succeeding tenants, and attorneys' fees
and costs. All keys to the Premises or any part thereof shall be surrendered to
Landlord upon expiration or sooner termination of the Lease term.
27. Holding Over. This Lease shall terminate without further notice at
the expiration of the Lease term. Any holding over by Tenant after expiration
shall not constitute a renewal or extension of the Lease term or give Tenant any
rights in or to the Premises unless otherwise expressly provided in this Lease.
Any holding over after the expiration with the express written consent of
Landlord shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month, at one hundred
fifty percent (150%) of the monthly Base Rent for the last month of the Lease
term, and shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions herein specified
insofar as applicable, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the
parties.
28. Transfer of Premises by Landlord. The term "Landlord" as used in
this Lease, so far as the covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord are
concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner at the time in
question of the fee title to the Premises. In the event of any transfer of such
fee title, the Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfer or
conveyances, the then grantor) shall after the date of such transfer or
conveyance be automatically freed and relieved of all liability with respect to
performance of any obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease
thereafter to be performed; provided, that any funds in the hands of Landlord or
the then grantor at the time of such transfer in which Tenant has an interest,
shall be turned over to the grantee. The covenants and obligations contained in
this Lease on the part of Landlord shall, subject to the foregoing, be binding
upon each Landlord hereunder only during his or its respective period of
ownership.
29. Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to
this Agreement, or the breach thereof, or any controversy arising out of the
same transaction, occurrence or series of transactions or occurrences, related
to the subject of this Agreement, whether in tort or contract and whether in law
or in equity, shall be settled in arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration
Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered
by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
Notice of demand for arbitration shall be filed in writing with the other party
to this Agreement and with the American Arbitration Association within three (3)
years from the expiration of this Agreement. However, in the event that a claim
is within the jurisdiction of the Small Claims Court, then the party claiming
that amount may proceed in the Small Claims Court rather than arbitration
19
30. General Provisions.
30.1 Entire Agreement. This instrument, together with the
exhibits attached hereto, contains all of the agreements and conditions made

record this Lease or a short form memorandum hereof without the prior written
consent of the other

at the sole option of Landlord, either terminate all or any existing subleases
or subtenancies, or operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such
subleases or subtenancies.
30.13 Force Majeure. Any prevention of or delay in the
performance by a party hereto of its obligations under this Lease caused by
inclement weather, labor disputes (including strikes and lockouts), inability to
obtain materials or reasonable substitutes therefor, governmental restrictions,
regulations, controls, action or inaction, civil commotion, fire or other causes
beyond the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform (except
financial inability), shall excuse the performance by such party of its
obligations hereunder (except the obligation of Tenant to pay rent and other
sums hereunder) for a period of one day for each such day of delay.
20
30.14 Brokers. Tenant warrants that it has had no dealings
with any real estate broker or agent in connection with the negotiation of this

right to install, in a mutually acceptable location, a backup generator, with
Landlord's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. There will be no
charge to Tenant for the placement of the generator. In the event CCI Triad

inspection and review by the other party or its representatives during normal
business hours.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have executed this Lease on the
dates specified below immediately adjacent to their respective signatures.
Delivery of this Lease to Landlord, duly executed by Tenant, constitutes an
offer by Tenant to lease the Premises as herein set forth, and under no
circumstances shall such delivery be deemed to create an option or reservation

ADDENDUM TO
TRI-VALLEY TECHNOLOGY PARK
INDUSTRIAL-R&D LEASE
The Addendum is executed by and between Tri-Valley Campus I LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company, as Landlord, and Adept Technology, Inc., a
California Corporation, as Tenant, with respect to those certain Premises
commonly known as 3011, 3055 and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. This Addendum is an integral
part of the lease to which it is attached; provided, the provisions of this
Addendum supersede the provisions of the lease to the extent inconsistent
therewith.
1. Option to Extend.
1.1 Option. At the expiration of both the original term and
the first extension term hereof, Tenant may extend the term of this Lease for an
additional period of five (5) years commencing immediately following the
Expiration Date of the original term or the first extension term (the "Extended
Term"). Tenant shall exercise the option, if at all, by giving Landlord notice
of Tenant's intention to do so at least three hundred sixty (360) days prior to
the Expiration Date. In no event shall any purported exercise of such option by
Tenant be effective if (i) an Event of Default (as defined in Paragraph 16.1)
exists at the time of such exercise or at the time the Extended Term would
otherwise have commenced, or (ii) more than three (3) Events of Default have
occurred during the Lease term prior to the date the Extended Term would
otherwise have commenced. Such Extended Term shall be upon all of the terms and
conditions hereof, except that the monthly rental and method of rental
adjustment for the Extended Term shall be determined as set forth below. Unless
expressly mentioned and approved in the written consent of Landlord referred to
in Paragraph 15 of this Lease, the option rights of Tenant under this paragraph
are granted for Tenant's personal benefit and may not be assigned or transferred
by Tenant.
1.2 Extended Term Rent. As of the commencement of the Extended
Term, the monthly Base Rent and the method of rental adjustment (including the
timing of adjustments and the basis for calculating the adjustments) for the
Extended Term shall be subject to negotiation between Landlord and Tenant, with
an effort to determine a fair market rental for the Premises, as improved, and a
method of rental adjustment consistent with rental adjustment practices for
comparable lease space in the vicinity of the Premises. In the event the parties
fail to agree upon the amount of the monthly Base Rent and the method of rental
adjustment for the Extended Term prior to commencement thereof, the monthly Base
Rent and the method of rental adjustment for the Extended Term shall be
determined by appraisal in the manner hereafter set forth; provided, however,
that in no event shall the monthly Base Rent for the Extended Term be less than
the monthly Base Rent payable hereunder for the last full month of the Lease
term immediately preceding commencement of the Extended Term.
In the event it becomes necessary under this subparagraph to
determine the fair market monthly Base Rent and the method of rental adjustment
of the Premises by appraisal, Landlord and Tenant each shall appoint a real
estate appraiser who shall be a member of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers ("AIREA") and such appraisers shall each determine the fair market
monthly Base Rent for the Premises, and the method of rental adjustment taking
into account the value of the Premises and the amenities provided by the Outside
Areas, the Common Areas and the Building and prevailing comparable rentals and
rental adjustment practices in the areas. Such appraisers shall, within twenty
(20) business days after their appointment, complete their appraisals and submit
their appraisal reports to Landlord and Tenant. If the fair market monthly Base
Rent of the Premises established in the two (2) appraisals varies by five
percent (5%) or less of the higher rental, the average of the two shall be
controlling. If said fair market monthly Base Rent varies by more than five
percent (5%) of the higher rental, said appraisers, within ten (10) days after
submission of the last appraisal, shall appoint a third appraiser who shall be a
member of the AIREA and who shall also be experienced in the appraisal of rental
values and adjustment practices for commercial properties in the vicinity of the
Premises. Such third appraiser shall, within twenty (20) business days after his
appointment, determine by appraisal the fair market monthly Base Rent of the
Premises, taking into account the same factors referred to above, and submit his
appraisal report to Landlord and Tenant. The fair market monthly Base Rent
determined by the third appraiser for the Premises shall be controlling, unless
it is less than that set forth in the lower appraisal previously obtained, in
which case the value set forth in said lower appraisal shall be controlling, or
unless it is greater than that set forth in the higher appraisal previously
obtained, in which case the rental set forth in said higher appraisal shall be
controlling. The method of adjusting rental
periodically, including the manner and timing of such adjustments, shall be as
determined by the initial two appraisers, if they agree on a single method;
otherwise, it shall be as determined by the third appraiser. If either Landlord
or Tenant fails to appoint an appraiser, or if an appraiser appointed by either
of them fails, after his appointment, to submit his appraisal within the
required period in accordance with the foregoing, the appraisal submitted by the
appraiser properly appointed and timely submitting his appraisal shall be
controlling. If the two appraisers appointed by Landlord and Tenant are unable
to agree upon a third appraiser within the required period in accordance with
the foregoing, application shall be made within twenty (20) days thereafter by
either Landlord or Tenant to the AIREA, which shall appoint a
member of said institute willing to serve as appraiser. The cost of all
appraisals under this subparagraph shall be borne equally by Landlord and
Tenant.
2. Construction of Tenant Improvements.
2.1 Definitions.
(a) The term "Tenant Improvements" shall mean those
improvements that Tenant constructs in the Premises pursuant to plans and
specifications developed therefor in accordance with Paragraph 2.2(a) below.
(b) The term "Tenant Improvement Costs" shall include
but not be limited to all sums: (1) paid to contractors for labor and materials
furnished in connection with construction of the Tenant Improvements pursuant to
Paragraph 2.2 below; (2) all costs, expenses, payments, fees, and charges
whatsoever paid or incurred by Landlord to or at the direction of any city,
county, or other governmental authority or agency which are required to be paid
by Landlord in order to obtain all necessary governmental permits, licenses,
inspections and approvals relating to the construction of the Tenant
Improvements and the use and occupancy of the Premises, including without
limitation all in lieu fees and utility fees; (3) engineering and architectural
fees for services required in connection with the design and construction of the
Tenant Improvements, and (4) premiums, if any, for course of construction
insurance and for payment and completion bonds relating only to construction of
the Tenant Improvements.
(c) Landlord shall provide a "Tenant Improvement
Allowance" in the amount of $20.00 per square foot for the Initial Premises and
$10.00 per square foot per square foot for the Expansion Premises, which
allowance is already reflected in the monthly Base Rent amount set forth in
Paragraph 3.1 of the Lease.
2.2 Procedure of Time Schedules.
(a) Approval of Plans. Within ten days after
execution of this Lease by both parties hereto, Tenant shall prepare and submit
to Landlord preliminary plans, specifications and working drawings for the
Tenant Improvements which Tenant desires Landlord to Construct on the Premises.
Tenant shall select the architect and engineers required for the design of the
Tenant Improvements, which selection shall be subject to the reasonable approval
of Landlord, As soon as the final plans, specifications and working drawings are
completed, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for its approval, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, and which shall be based solely upon whether
such final plans are consistent with the preliminary plans. In all events, the
parties shall use their best efforts to reach agreement so that such plans may
be submitted for governmental approval within seven (7) days from submission of
such plans to Landlord for its approval. If Landlord and Tenant agree on such
plans, they shall indicate their approval thereof by initialing and dating the
same and a copy of the final Tenant Improvements plans shall be attached hereto
as Exhibit "B" and shall become a part hereof. Tenant shall submit such final
plans, specifications and working drawings to all appropriate governmental
agencies for approval. Concurrently with its submission of final plans to
governmental agencies, Tenant shall obtain a bid for the construction of the
improvements contemplated by such final plans and specifications. Immediately
following receipt of such bid, Tenant shall deliver a copy to Landlord for its
review and approval. Such bid shall be deemed approved by Tenant if Tenant does
not object thereto within ten (10) days thereafter. Tenant shall notify Landlord
of any changes required by any governmental agencies, and Landlord shall have
seven (7) days thereafter to indicate its approval thereof. All such changes
required by governmental agencies shall be deemed acceptable to Landlord unless
Tenant's use of the Premises is materially impaired or modified thereby. The
final plans, specifications and working drawings as approved, and all change
orders specifically permitted pursuant to Subparagraph (c) below, shall be
referred to herein as the "Approved Plans".
(b) Contractors. The Tenant Improvements shall be
constructed by a general contractor approved by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant
shall use its best efforts to complete the preparation and approval of the
Approved Plans so that construction contracts may be executed to ensure
completion prior to the Commencement Date.
(c) Changes to Approved Plans for Tenant
Improvements. Once the Approved Plans have been finally approved by Landlord and
Tenant as provided above, then thereafter neither party shall have the right to
order extra work or change orders with respect to the construction of the Tenant
Improvements without the prior written consent of the other, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All extra work or change orders
requested by either Landlord or Tenant shall be made in writing, shall specify
the amount of delay or the time saved resulting therefrom, shall specify any
added or reduced cost resulting therefrom, shall specify which party shall pay
such costs and the manner of payment and shall become effective and a part of
the Approved Plans once approved in writing by both parties.
(d) Commencement and Completion of the Tenant
Improvements. As soon as (1) the Approved Plans have been developed as provided
above, and (2) all necessary governmental approvals have been obtained, then
Tenant shall thereafter commence construction of such improvements and shall
diligently prosecute such construction to completion. Such improvements shall be
constructed by Tenant substantially in accordance with the Approved Plans, and
in compliance with all applicable regulations, ordinances, building codes, and
statutes of lawful governmental authority. Landlord shall not receive a
construction management fee.
(e) Payment of Cost of Tenant Improvements. Landlord
shall pay all Tenant Improvement Costs up to an amount equal to the Tenant
Improvement Allowance. Tenant shall thereafter pay any excess Tenant Improvement
Costs over and above such amounts.
2.3 Delay in Completion The parties hereto acknowledge that
the date on which Tenant's obligation to pay the monthly Base Rent would
otherwise commence may possibly be delayed because of, among other things (each
a "Delay"): (a) failure to promptly review and approve plans for the Tenant
Improvements; (b) Tenant's request for special materials, finishes, or
installations which are not readily available; (c) change orders requested by
Tenant and approved by Landlord; (d) Tenant's failure to complete any of its own
improvement work to the extent Tenant delays completion by appropriate
governmental authorities of their final inspection and approval of Landlord's
improvements; or (e) interference with Landlord's work caused by Tenant or by
Tenant's contractors or Subcontractors. It is the intent of the parties hereto
that Tenant's obligation to pay the monthly Base Rent not be delayed by any of
such causes or by any other act of Tenant, and in the event it is so delayed,
then Tenant's obligation to pay the monthly Base Rent shall commence as of the
date it would otherwise have commenced absent said delay caused by Tenant.
Delays in excess of thirty (30) days for any of the above-mentioned reasons may
affect Landlord's financing of construction of the Premises, and Tenant agrees
to pay any reasonable additional financing costs, including loan fees, incurred
by Landlord as a result thereof.
3. Right of First Negotiation to Purchase. If, at any time,
from the date of the Lease until July 1, 2001, Landlord intends to offer the
entire Premises, consisting of the all three buildings, for sale to a party
unrelated to Landlord, then Landlord shall first offer to sell same to Tenant.
Tenant shall have ten (10) business days to accept Landlord's offer. If Tenant
does not accept this offer, then Landlord may proceed with a sale with no
further obligation to Tenant. This right of first negotiation to purchase shall
not apply to any financing arranged by Landlord other than a conveyance of the
fee simple real estate title to the entire Premises.
