Section 4.4 Insurance Policies.
------------------
(a) Liability Insurance. During the Lease Term, Tenant shall
-------------------
maintain a policy of commercial general liability insurance (sometimes known as
broad form comprehensive general liability insurance) insuring Tenant against
liability for bodily injury, property damage (including loss of use of property)
and personal injury arising out of the operation, use or occupancy of the
Property. Tenant shall name Landlord as an additional insured under such policy.
The initial amount of such insurance shall be Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000)
per occurrence and shall be subject to periodic increase based upon inflation,
increased liability awards, recommendation of Landlord's professional insurance
advisers and other relevant factors. The liability insurance obtained by Tenant
under this Paragraph 4.4(a) shall (i) be primary and non-contributing; (ii)
contain cross-liability endorsements; and (iii) insure Landlord against Tenant's
performance under Section 5.5, if the matters giving rise to the indemnity under
Section 5.5 result from the negligence of Tenant. The amount and coverage of
such insurance shall not limit Tenant's liability nor relieve Tenant of any
other obligation under this Lease. Landlord may also obtain comprehensive public
liability insurance in an amount and with coverage determined by Landlord
insuring Landlord against liability arising out of ownership, operation, use or
occupancy of the Property. The policy obtained by Landlord shall not be
contributory and shall not provide primary Insurance.
(b) Property and Rental Income Insurance. During the Lease Term,
------------------------------------
Landlord shall maintain policies of insurance covering loss of or damage to the
Property in the full amount of its replacement value. Such policy shall contain
an Inflation Guard Endorsement and shall provide protection against all perils
included within the classification of fire, extended coverage, vandalism,
malicious mischief, special extended perils (all risk), sprinkler leakage and
any other perils which Landlord deems reasonably necessary. Landlord shall have
the right to obtain flood and earthquake insurance if required by any lender
holding a security interest in the Property. Landlord shall not obtain
insurance for Tenant's fixtures or equipment or building improvements installed
by Tenant on the Property.
(c) Payment of Premiums.
-------------------
(i) Landlord shall pay the "Premiums" for the insurance
policies maintained by Landlord under Paragraph 4.4(b). Notwithstanding
the previous sentence, Tenant shall be obligated to pay the Premiums for
the insurance to the extent such Premiums increase as a result of Tenant's
use of the Property. For example, if Tenant changes its use of the
Property to include an activity which is inherently more dangerous than its
use of the Property as of the Commencement
7
Date, Tenant shall be obligated to pay for the increase in Premium
resulting from such activity on the Property.
(d) General Insurance Provisions.
(i) Any insurance which Tenant is required to maintain under
this Lease shall include a provision which requires the insurance carrier
to give Landlord not less than thirty (30) days' written notice prior to
any cancellation or modification of such coverage.
(ii) if Tenant fails to deliver any policy, certificate or
renewal to Landlord required under this Lease within the prescribed time
period or if any such policy is cancelled or modified during the Lease Term
without Landlord's consent, Landlord may obtain such insurance, in which
case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of such insurance within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of a statement that indicates the cost of
such insurance.
(iii) Tenant and Landlord shall maintain all insurance required
under this Lease with companies holding a "General Policy Rating" of A-12
or better, as set forth In the most current issue of "Best Key Rating
Guide". Landlord and Tenant acknowledge the insurance markets are rapidly
changing and that insurance in the form and amounts described in this
Section 4.4 may not be available in the future. Tenant acknowledges that
the insurance described in this Section 4.4 is for the primary benefit of
Landlord, If at any time during the Lease Term, Tenant is unable to
maintain the insurance required under the Lease, Tenant shall nevertheless
maintain insurance coverage which is customary and commercially reasonable
in the insurance industry for Tenant's type of business, as that coverage
may change from time to time. Landlord makes no representation as to the
adequacy of such insurance to protect Landlord's or Tenant's interests.
Therefore, Tenant shall obtain any such additional property or liability
insurance which Tenant deems necessary to protect Landlord and Tenant.
(iv) Unless prohibited under any applicable insurance policies
maintained, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive any and all rights of
recovery against the other, or against the officers, employees, agents or
representatives of the other, for loss of or damage to its property or the
property of others under its control, if such loss or damage is covered by
any insurance policy in force (whether or not described in this Lease) at
the time of such loss or damage. Upon obtaining the
8
required policies of insurance, Landlord and Tenant shall give notice to
the insurance carriers of this mutual waiver of subrogation.
Section 4.5 Late Charges. Tenant's failure to pay rent promptly may cause
------------
Landlord to incur unanticipated costs. The exact amount of such costs are
impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs may include, but
are not limited to, processing and accounting charges end late charges which may
be imposed on Landlord by any ground lease, mortgage or trust deed encumbering
the Property. Therefore, if Landlord does not receive any rent payment within
ten (10) days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge
equal to ten percent (10%) of the overdue amount. The parties agree that such
late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will
incur by reason of such late payment.
Section 4.6 Interest on Past Due Obligations. Any amount owed by Tenant
--------------------------------
to Landlord which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of
fifteen percent (15%) per annum from the due date of such amount. However,
interest shall not be payable on late charges to be paid by Tenant under this
Lease. The payment of Interest on such amounts shall not excuse or cure any
default by Tenant under this Lease, if the interest rate specified in this Lease
is higher than the rate permitted by law, the interest rate is hereby decreased
to the maximum legal interest rate permitted by law.
Section 4.7 Impounds for Insurance Premiums and Real Property Taxes. If
-------------------------------------------------------
requested by any ground lessor or lender to whom Landlord has granted a security
interest in the Property, or if Tenant is more than ten (10) days late in the
payment of rent more than once in any consecutive twelve (12)-month period,
Tenant shall pay Landlord a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual real
property taxes and insurance premiums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this
Lease, together with each payment of Base Rent. Landlord shall hold such
payments in a non-Interest bearing impound account, if unknown, Landlord shall
reasonably estimate the amount of real property taxes and insurance premiums
when due. Tenant shall pay any deficiency of funds in the Impound account to
Landlord upon written request. If Tenant defaults under this Lease, Landlord
may apply any funds in the impound account to any obligation then due under this
Lease.

(b) Tenant shall fulfill all of Tenant's obligations under this
Section 6.4 at Tenant's sole expense. If Tenant fails to maintain, repair or
replace the Property as required by this Section 6.4, Landlord may, upon ten
(10) days' prior notice to Tenant (except that no notice shall be required in
the case of an emergency), enter the Property and perform such maintenance or
repair (including replacement, as needed) on behalf of Tenant. In such case,
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred in performing such
maintenance or repair immediately upon demand.
Section 6.5 Alterations, Additions, and Improvements.
----------------------------------------
(a) Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions, or improvements
to the Property without Landlord's prior written consent, except for non-
structural alterations which do not exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000) in cost cumulatively over the Lease Term and which are not visible
from the outside of any building of which the Property is part. Landlord may
require Tenant to provide demolition and/or lien and
13
completion bonds in form and amount satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall
promptly remove any alterations, additions, or improvements constructed in
violation of this Paragraph 6.5(a) upon Landlord's written request. All
alterations, additions, and improvements shall be done in a good and workmanlike
manner, in conformity with all applicable laws and regulations, and by a
contractor approved by Landlord. Upon completion of any such work, Tenant shall
provide Landlord with "as built" Plans, copies of all construction contracts,
and proof of payment for all labor and materials.
(b) Tenant shall pay when due all claims for labor and material
furnished to the Property. Tenant shall give Landlord at least twenty (20)
days' prior written notice of the commencement of any work on the Property,
regardless of whether Landlord's consent to such work is required. Landlord may
elect to record and post notices of non-responsibility on the Property.
Section 6.6 Condition Upon Termination. Upon the termination of the
--------------------------
Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Property to Landlord, broom clean and in the
same condition as received except for ordinary wear and tear which Tenant was
not otherwise obligated to remedy under any provision of this Lease. However,
Tenant shall not be obligated to repair any damage which Landlord is required to
repair under Article 7 (Damage or Destruction). In addition, Landlord may
require Tenant to remove any alterations, additions or improvements (whether or
not made with Landlord's consent) prior to the expiration of the Lease and to
restore the Property to its prior condition, all at Tenant's expense. All
alterations, additions and improvements which Landlord has not required Tenant
to remove shall become Landlord's property and shall be surrendered to Landlord
upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, except that Tenant may
remove any of Tenant's machinery or equipment which can be removed without
material damage to the Property. Tenant shall repair, at Tenant's expense, any
damage to the Property caused by the removal of any such machinery or equipment.
In no event, however, shall Tenant remove any of the following materials or
equipment (which shall be deemed Landlord's property) without Landlord's prior
written consent: any power wiring or power panels; lighting or lighting
fixtures; wall coverings; drapes, blinds or other window coverings; carpets or
other floor coverings; heaters, air conditioners or any other heating or air
conditioning equipment; fencing or security gates; or other similar building
operating equipment and decorations except to the extent installed by Tenant.

ARTICLE 7
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
---------------------
Section 7.1 Partial Damage to Property.
--------------------------
(a) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing immediately upon the
occurrence of any damage to the Property. If the Property is only partially
damaged (i.e., less than fifty percent (50%) of the Property is untenantable as
a result of such damage or less than fifty percent (50%) of Tenant's operations
are materially impaired) and if the proceeds received by Landlord from the
insurance policies described in Paragraph 4.4(b) are sufficient to pay for the
necessary repairs, this Lease shall remain in effect and Landlord shall repair
the damage as soon as reasonably possible. Landlord may elect (but is not
required) to repair any damage to Tenant's fixtures, equipment, or improvements.
(b) If the insurance proceeds received by Landlord are not sufficient
to pay the entire cost of repair, or if the cause of the damage is not covered
by the insurance policies which Landlord maintains under Paragraph 4.4(b),
Landlord may elect either to (i) repair the damage as soon as reasonably
possible, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, or
(ii) terminate this Lease as of the date the damage occurred. Landlord shall
notify Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of the occurrence
of the damage whether Landlord elects to repair the damage or terminate the
Lease. If Landlord elects to repair the damage, and, if the damage was due to
an act or omission of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents, contractors or
invitees, Tenant shall pay Landlord the "deductible amount" (if any) under
Landlord's insurance policies and the difference between the actual cost of
repair and any insurance proceeds received by Landlord. If Landlord elects to
terminate the Lease, Tenant may elect to continue this Lease in full force and
effect, in which case Tenant shall repair any damage to the Property and any
building in which the Property is located. Tenant shall pay the cost of such
repairs, except that upon satisfactory completion of such repairs, Landlord
shall deliver to Tenant any insurance proceeds received by Landlord for the
damage repaired by Tenant. Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such
election within ten (10) days after receiving Landlord's termination notice.
(c) If the damage to the Property occurs during the last six (6)
months of the Lease Term and such damage will require more than thirty (30) days
to repair, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the
date the damage occurred, regardless of the sufficiency of any Insurance
proceeds. The party electing to terminate this Lease shall give written
notification to the other party of such election within thirty (30) days after
Tenant's notice to Landlord of the occurrence of the damage.
15
Section 7.2 Substantial or Total Destruction. If the Property is
--------------------------------
substantially or totally destroyed by any cause whatsoever (i.e., the damage to
the Property is greater than partial damage as described in Section 7.1), and
regardless of whether Landlord receives any insurance proceeds, this Lease shall
terminate as of the date the destruction occurred. Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, if the Property can be rebuilt within six (6) months alter
the date of destruction, Landlord may elect to rebuild the Property at
Landlord's own expense, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and
effect. Landlord shall notify Tenant of such election within thirty (30) days
after Tenant's notice of the occurrence of total or substantial destruction. If
Landlord so elects, Landlord shall rebuild the Property at Landlord's sole
expense, except that if the destruction was caused by an act or omission of
Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the difference between the actual cost of
rebuilding and any insurance proceeds received by Landlord.
Section 7.3 Temporary Reduction of Rent. If the Property is destroyed or
---------------------------
damaged and Landlord or Tenant repairs or restores the Property pursuant to the
provisions of this Article 7, any rent payable during the period of such damage,
repair and/or restoration shall be reduced according to the degree, if any, to
which Tenant's use of the Property is impaired. Except for such possible
reduction in Base Rent, insurance premiums and real property taxes, Tenant shall
not be entitled to any compensation, reduction, or reimbursement from Landlord
as a result of any damage, destruction, repair, or restoration of or to the
Property.
Section 7.4 Waiver. Tenant waives the protection of any statute, code or
------
judicial decision which grants a tenant the right to terminate a lease in the
event of the substantial or total destruction of the leased property. Tenant
agrees that the provisions of Section 7.2 above shall govern the rights and
obligations of Landlord and Tenant in the event of any substantial or total
destruction to the Property.
ARTICLE 8
CONDEMNATION
------------
If all or any portion of the Property is taken under the power of
eminent domain or sold under the threat of that power (all of which are called
"Condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as to the part taken or sold on the
date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever occurs first.
If more than twenty percent (20%) of the floor area of the building in which the
Property is located, or which is located on the Property, is taken, either
Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning
authority takes title or possession, by delivering written notice to the other
within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such taking (or in the
absence of such notice, within
16
ten (10) days after the condemning authority takes title or possession). If
neither Landlord nor Tenant terminates this Lease, this Lease shall remain in
effect as to the portion of the Property not taken, except that the Base Rent
and Additional Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in the floor
area of the Property. Any Condemnation award or payment shall be distributed in
the following order: (a) first, to any ground lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary
under a deed of trust encumbering the Property, the amount of its interest in
the Property; (b) second, to Tenant, only the amount of any award specifically
designated for loss of or damage to Tenant's trade fixtures or removable
personal property; and (c) third, to Landlord, the remainder of such award,
whether as compensation for reduction in the value of the leasehold, the taking
of the fee, or otherwise. If this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall
repair any damage to the Property caused by the Condemnation, except that
Landlord shall not be obligated to repair any damage for which Tenant has been
reimbursed by the condemning authority. If the severance damages received by
Landlord are not sufficient to pay for such repair, Landlord shall have the
right to either terminate this Lease or make such repair at Landlord's expense.
ARTICLE 9
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
-------------------------
Section 9.1 Landlord's Consent Required. No portion of the Property or of
---------------------------
Tenant's interest in this Lease may be acquired by any other person or entity,
whether by sale, assignment, sublease, transfer, operation of law, or act of
Tenant, without Landlord's prior written consent, except as provided in Section
9.2 below. Landlord has the right to grant or withhold its consent as provided
in Section 9.5 below. Any attempted transfer without consent shall be void and
shall constitute a non-curable breach of this Lease. If Tenant is a
partnership, any cumulative transfer of more than fifty percent (50%) of the
partnership interests shall require Landlord's consent, if Tenant is a
corporation, any change in the ownership of a controlling interest of the voting
stock of the corporation (except as set forth in 9.2) shall require Landlord's
consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may mortgage, assign or transfer
its interest in this Lease to any lender and such lender or an affiliate or
designee may subsequently acquire Tenant's interest in this Lease by foreclosure
or assignment in lieu thereof, without Landlord's consent.
Section 9.2 Tenant Affiliate. Tenant may assign this Lease or sublease
----------------
the Property, without Landlord's consent, (i) to any corporation which controls,
is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or to any corporation,
partnership, limited liability company or other legal entity resulting from a
reorganization or the merger of or consolidation with Tenant ("Tenant's
--------
Affiliate") or (ii) in the event of the public sale of stock
---------
17
of Tenant or Tenant's Affiliate or for subsequent transfers of stock whether or
not such transfers result in a change in control, provided that any assignee of
the Lease shall assume in writing all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease,
or (iii) in connection with the acquisition of or a business combination with
another business principally engaged in supplying products to the pet industry
with annual revenues in excess of $25,000,000, provided that any assignee of the
Lease shall assume in writing all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease.
Section 9.3 No Release of Tenant. No transfer permitted by this Article
--------------------
9, whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall release Tenant or change
Tenant's primary liability to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations
of Tenant under this Lease. Landlord's acceptance of rent from any other person
is not a waiver of any provision of this Article 9. Consent to one transfer is
not a consent to any subsequent transfer. If Tenant's transferee defaults under
this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without pursuing
remedies against the transferee. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments
or modifications of this Lease by Tenant's transferee, without notifying Tenant
or obtaining its consent. Such action shall not relieve Tenant's liability
under this Lease.
Section 9.4 Offer to Terminate. If Tenant desires to assign the Lease or
------------------
sublease the Property, Tenant shall have the right to offer, in writing, to
terminate the Lease as of a date specified in the offer. If Landlord elects in
writing to accept the offer to terminate within twenty (20) days after notice of
the offer, the Lease shall terminate as of the date specified and all the terms
and provisions of the Lease governing termination shall apply. If Landlord does
not so elect, the Lease shall continue in effect until otherwise terminated and
the provisions of Section 9.5 with respect to any proposed transfer shall
continue to apply.
Section 9.5 Landlord's Consent.
------------------
(a) Tenant's request for consent to any transfer described in
Sections 9.1 shall set forth in writing the details of the proposed transfer,
including the name, business and financial condition of the prospective
transferee, financial details of the proposed transfer (e.g.,the term of and the
rent and security deposit payable under any proposed assignment or sublease),
and any other information Landlord deems relevant. Landlord shall have the right
to withhold consent, if reasonable, or to grant consent, based on the following
factors: (i) the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant and the proposed
use of the Property; (ii) the net worth and financial reputation of the proposed
assignee or subtenant; (iii) Tenant's compliance with all of its obligations
under the Lease; and (iv) such other factors as Landlord may reasonably deem
relevant. If Landlord objects to a proposed assignment solely because of the net
worth and/or financial reputation of the proposed assignee, Tenant
18
may nonetheless sublease (but not assign), all or a portion of the Property to
the proposed transferee, but only on the other terms of the proposed transfer.
(b) If Tenant assigns or subleases, the following shall apply:
(i) Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent under the
Lease the Landlord's Share (stated in Section 1.14) of the Profit (defined
below) on such transaction as and when received by Tenant, unless Landlord
gives written notice to Tenant and the assignee or subtenant that
Landlord's Share shall be paid by the assignee or subtenant to Landlord
directly. The "Profit" means (A) all amounts paid to Tenant for such
assignment or sublease, including "key" money, monthly rent in excess of
the monthly rent payable under the Lease, and all fees and other
consideration paid for the assignment or sublease, including fees under any
collateral agreements, less (B) costs and expenses directly incurred by
Tenant in connection with the execution and performance of such assignment
or sublease for real estate broker's commissions and costs of renovation or
construction of tenant improvements required under such assignment or
sublease. Tenant is entitled to recover such costs and expenses before
Tenant is obligated to pay the Landlord's Share to Landlord. The Profit in
the case of a sublease of less than all the Property is the rent allocable
to the subleased space as a percentage on a square footage basis.
(ii) Tenant shall provide Landlord a written statement
certifying all amounts to be paid from any assignment or sublease of the
Property within thirty (30) days after the transaction documentation is
signed, and Landlord may inspect Tenant's books and records to verify the
accuracy of such statement. On written request, Tenant shall promptly
furnish to Landlord copies of all the transaction documentation, all of
which shall be certified by Tenant to be complete, true and correct.
Landlord's receipt of Landlord's Share shall not be a consent to any
further assignment or subletting. The breach of Tenant's obligation under
this Paragraph 9.5(b) shall be a material default of the Lease.
Section 9.6 No Merger. No merger shall result from Tenant's sublease of
---------
the Property under this Article 9, Tenant's surrender of this Lease or the
termination of this Lease in any other manner. In any such event, Landlord may
terminate any or all subtenancies or succeed to the interest of Tenant as
sublandlord under any or all subtenancies.
19
ARTICLE 10
DEFAULTS; REMEDIES
------------------
Section 10.1 Covenants and Conditions. Tenant's performance of each of
------------------------
Tenant's obligations under this Lease is a condition as well as a covenant.
Tenant's right to continue in possession of the Property is conditioned upon
such performance. Time is of the essence in the performance of all covenants
and conditions.
Section 10.2 Defaults. Tenant shall be in material default under this
--------
Lease:
(a) If Tenant abandons the Property or if Tenant's vacation of the
Property results in the cancellation of any insurance described in Section 4.4;
(b) If Tenant fails to pay rent or any other charge within three (3)
days after delivery of notice that such amounts are past due;
(c) If Tenant fails to perform any of Tenant's non-monetary
obligations under this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after written
notice from Landlord; provided that if more than thirty (30) days are required
to complete such performance, Tenant shall not be in default if Tenant commences
such performance within the thirty (30)-day period and thereafter diligently
pursues its completion. However, Landlord shall not be required to give such
notice if Tenant's failure to perform constitutes a non-curable breach of this
Lease. The notice required by this Paragraph is intended to satisfy any and all
notice requirements imposed by law on Landlord and is not in addition to any
such requirement.
(d) (i) If Tenant makes a general assignment or general
arrangement for the benefit of creditors; (ii) if a petition for adjudication of
bankruptcy or for reorganization or rearrangement is filed by or against Tenant
and is not dismissed within thirty (30) days; (iii) if a trustee or receiver is
appointed to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at
the Property or of Tenant's interest in this Lease and possession is not
restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (iv) if substantially all of
Tenant's assets located at the Property or of Tenant's interest in this Lease is
subjected to attachment, execution or other judicial seizure which is not
discharged within thirty (30) days. If a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that any of the acts described in this subparagraph (d) is not a
default under this Lease, and a trustee is appointed to take possession (or if
Tenant remains a debtor in possession) and such trustee or Tenant transfers
Tenant's interest hereunder, then Landlord shall receive, as Additional Rent,
the excess, if any, of the rent (or any other consideration) paid in connection
with such assignment or sublease over the rent payable by Tenant under this
Lease.
20
(e) If any guarantor of the Lease revokes or otherwise terminates, or
purports to revoke or otherwise terminate, any guaranty of all or any portion of
Tenant's obligations under the Lease. Unless otherwise expressly provided, no
guaranty of the Lease is revocable.
Section 10.3 Remedies. On the occurrence of any material default by
--------
Tenant, Landlord may, at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand
and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or remedy which
Landlord may have:
(a) Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Property by any
lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall
immediately surrender possession of the Property to Landlord. In such event,
Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by
Landlord by reason of Tenant's default, including (i) the worth at the time of
the award of the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which
Landlord had earned at the time of the termination; (ii) the worth at the time
of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and
other charges which Landlord would have earned after termination until the time
of the award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves Landlord
could have reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of the award of the
amount by which the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which
Tenant would have paid for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves Landlord could have
reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord
for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its
obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be
likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses
Landlord incurs in maintaining or preserving the Property after such default,
the cost of recovering possession of the Property, expenses of reletting,
including necessary renovation or alteration of the Property, Landlord's
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection therewith, and any real estate
commission paid or payable. As used in subparts (i) and (ii) above, the "worth
at the time of the award" is computed by allowing interest on unpaid amounts at
the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum, or such lesser amount as may then
be the maximum lawful rate. As used in subpart (iii) above, the "worth at the
time of the award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate
of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award, plus one
percent (10%). If Tenant has abandoned the Property, Landlord shall have the
option of (i) retaking possession of the Property and recovering from Tenant the
amount specified in this Paragraph 10.3(a), or (ii) proceeding under Paragraph
10.3(b);
21
(b) Maintain Tenant's right to possession, in which case this Lease
shall continue in effect whether or not Tenant has abandoned the Property. In
such event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's rights and
remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes
due.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord
under the laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Property is
located.
Section 10.4 Intentionally Omitted.
---------------------
Section 10.5 Automatic Termination. Notwithstanding any other term or
---------------------
provision hereof to the contrary, the Lease shall terminate on the occurrence of
any act which affirms the Landlord's intention to terminate the Lease as
provided in Section 10.3 hereof, including the filing of an unlawful detainer
action against Tenant. On such termination, Landlord's damages for default
shall include all costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees that
Landlord incurs in connection with the filing, commencement, pursuing and/or
defending of any action in any bankruptcy court or other court with respect to
the Lease; the obtaining of relief from any stay in bankruptcy restraining any
action to evict Tenant; or the pursuing of any action with respect to Landlord's
right to possession of the Property. All such damages suffered (apart from Base
Rent and other rent payable hereunder) shall constitute pecuniary damages which
must be reimbursed to Landlord prior to assumption of the Lease by Tenant or any
successor to Tenant in any bankruptcy or other proceeding.
Section 10.6 Cumulative Remedies. Landlord's exercise of any right or
-------------------
remedy shall not prevent it from exercising any other right or remedy.
ARTICLE 11
PROTECTION OF LENDERS
---------------------
Section 11.1 Subordination. Landlord shall have the right to subordinate
-------------
this Lease to any ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage encumbering the
Property, any advances made on the security thereof and any renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements or extensions thereof, whenever made
or recorded. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and any lender which is
acquiring a security interest in the Property or the Lease. Tenant shall
execute such further documents and assurances as such lender may require,
provided that Tenant's obligations under this Lease shall not be increased in
any material way (the performance of ministerial acts shall not be deemed
material), and Tenant shall not be deprived of its rights under this Lease.
Tenant's right to quiet possession of the Property
22
during the Lease Term shall not be disturbed if Tenant pays the rent and
performs all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease and is not otherwise in
default. If any ground lessor beneficiary or mortgagee elects to have this
Lease prior to the lien of its ground lease, dead of trust or mortgage and gives
written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such
ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage whether this Lease is dated prior or
subsequent to the date of said ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage or the
date of recording thereof.
Section 11.2 Attornment. If Landlord's interest in the Property is
----------
acquired by any ground lessor, beneficiary under a deed of trust, mortgagee, or
purchaser at a foreclosure sale, Tenant shall attorn to the transferee of or
successor to Landlord's interest in the Property and recognize such transferee
or successor as Landlord under this Lease. Tenant waives the protection of any
statute or rule of law which gives or purports to give Tenant any right to
terminate this Lease or surrender possession of the Property upon the transfer
of Landlord's interest.
Section 11.3 Signing of Documents. Tenant shall sign and deliver any
--------------------
instrument or documents necessary or appropriate to evidence any such attornment
or subordination or agreement to do so. If Tenant falls to do so within ten
(10) days after written request, Tenant hereby makes, constitutes and
irrevocably appoints Landlord, or any transferee or successor of Landlord, the
attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute and deliver any such instrument or
document.
Section 11.4 Estoppel Certificates.
---------------------
(a) Upon Landlord's written request, Tenant shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a written statement certifying: (i) that
none of the terms or provisions of this Lease have been changed (or if they have
been changed, stating how they have been changed); (ii) that this Lease has not
been cancelled or terminated; (iii) the last date of payment of the Base Rent
and other charges and the time period covered by such payment; (iv) that
Landlord is not to Tenant's knowledge in default under this Lease (or, if
Landlord is claimed to be in default, stating why); and (v) such other
representations or information with respect to Tenant or the Lease as Landlord
may reasonably request or which any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the
Property may require. Tenant shall deliver such statement to Landlord within ten
(10) days after Landlord's request. Landlord may give any such statement by
Tenant to any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Property. Such
purchaser or encumbrancer may rely conclusively upon such statement as true and
correct.
23
(b) If Tenant does not deliver such statement to Landlord within such
ten (10)-day period, Landlord, and any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer,
may conclusively presume and rely upon the following facts: (i) that the terms
and provisions of this Lease have not been changed except as otherwise
represented by Landlord; (ii) that this Lease has not been cancelled or
terminated except as otherwise represented by Landlord; (iii) that not more than
one month's Base Rent or other charges have been paid in advance: and (iv) that
Landlord is not in default under the Lease. In such event, Tenant shall be
estopped from denying the truth of such facts.
Section 11.5 Tenant's Financial Condition. Within ten (10) days after
----------------------------
written request from Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord such financial
statements as Landlord reasonably requires to verify the net worth of Tenant or
any assignee, subtenant, or guarantor of Tenant. In addition, Tenant shall
deliver to any lender designated by Landlord any financial statements required
by such lender to facilitate the financing or refinancing of the Property.
Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that each such financial statement is
a true and accurate statement as of the date of such statement. All financial
statements shall be confidential and shall be used only for the purposes set
forth in this Lease.
ARTICLE 12
LEGAL COSTS
-----------
Section 12.1 Legal Proceedings. (a) If Tenant or Landlord shall be in
-----------------
breach or default under this Lease, such party (the "Defaulting Party") shall
reimburse the other party (the "Nondefaulting Party") upon demand for any costs
or expenses that the Nondefaulting Party incurs in connection with any breach of
default of the Defaulting Party under this Lease, whether or not suit is
commenced or judgment entered. Such costs shall include legal fees and costs
incurred for the negotiation of a settlement, enforcement of rights or
otherwise. Furthermore, if any action for breach of or to enforce the
provisions of this Lease is commenced, the party in whose favor a judgment is
entered, shall receive a reasonable sum as attorneys' fees and casts. The losing
party in such action shall pay such attorneys' fees and costs. Tenant shall
also indemnify Landlord against and hold Landlord harmless from all costs,
expenses, demands and liability Landlord may incur if Landlord becomes or is
made a party to any claim or action (a) instituted by Tenant against any third
party, or by any third party against Tenant, or by or against any person holding
any interest under or using the Property by license of or agreement with Tenant;
(b) for foreclosure of any lien for labor or material furnished to or for Tenant
or such other person; (c) otherwise arising out of or resulting from any act or
transaction of Tenant or such other person; or (d) necessary to protect
Landlord's interest under this Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding, or other
24
proceeding under Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended. Tenant shall
defend Landlord against any such claim or action at Tenant's expense with
counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord or, at Landlord's election, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord for any legal fees or costs Landlord incurs in any such
claim or action.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, if a
controversy, claim or dispute arises out of or relates to this Lease, or the
breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through negotiation, the
parties agree first to try in good faith to settle the dispute by mediation
administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial
Mediation Rules before resorting to arbitration as set forth below.
If the parties hereto cannot solve a dispute by mediation within 60 days of
the commencement thereof, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to
this Lease, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered
by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules,
and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties hereto further agree that the
above controversy be submitted to three arbitrators. The parties hereto further
agree to faithfully observe this agreement and the rules, and that the parties
will abide by and perform any award rendered by the arbitrators, and that a
judgment of the court having jurisdiction may be entered on the award.
Section 12.2 Landlord's Consent. Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable
------------------
attorneys' fees incurred in connection with Tenant's request for Landlord's
consent under Article 9 (Assignment and Subletting), or in connection with any
other act which Tenant proposes to do and which requires Landlord's consent
ARTICLE 13
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
------------------------
Section 13.1 Non-Discrimination. Tenant promises, and it is a condition
------------------
to the continuance of this Lease, that there will be no discrimination against,
or segregation of, any person or group of persons on the basis of race, color,
sex, creed, national origin or ancestry in the leasing, subleasing,
transferring, occupancy, tenure or use of the Property or any portion thereof.
25
Section 13.2 Landlord's Liability; Certain Duties.
------------------------------------
(a) As used in this Lease, the term "Landlord" means only the current
owner or owners of the fee title to the Property or the leasehold estate under a
ground lease of the Property at the time in question. Each Landlord is
obligated to perform the obligations of Landlord under this Lease only during
the time such Landlord owns such interest or title. Any Landlord who transfers
its title or interest is relieved of all liability with respect to the
obligations of Landlord under this Lease to be performed on or after the date of
transfer. However each Landlord shall deliver to its transferee all funds that
Tenant previously paid if such funds have not yet been applied under the terms
of this Lease.
(b) Tenant shall give written notice of any failure by Landlord to
perform any of its obligations under this Lease to Landlord and to any ground

(a) Subject and subordinate to the rights of Related Parties (hereinafter
defined) as set forth in paragraph (b) hereinbelow, Tenant, and its successors
-------------
and assigns, provided that Tenant is not in default of this Lease, shall have a
right of first refusal exercisable from the Commencement Date through the Term
including all extension terms and including the date upon which this Lease
expires with respect to the purchase of the Property. Such right of refusal
shall be exercisable upon and shall be subject to the following conditions:
(1) Upon receipt by Landlord of a bona fide offer (herein called the
"Bona Fide Offer") acceptable to Landlord to purchase the Property or to
----------------
purchase any vacant or undeveloped contiguous property except the frontage
property facing ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the "Frontage Property"), which is specifically
-----------------
excluded from this Right of
28
First Refusal, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the existence and terms and
conditions of the Bona Fide Offer.
(2) Upon Tenant's receipt of notice of the Bona Fide Offer from
Landlord, Tenant shall have thirty (30) business days to notify Landlord in
writing that Tenant irrevocably elects to (a) purchase the Property or
contiguous property (other than the Frontage Property) upon all of the
terms and conditions stated in the Bona Fide Offer, including the purchase
price stated in the Bona Fide Offer and (b) simultaneously with Tenant's
election in the preceding clause (a), at Tenant's option, purchase any
vacant or undeveloped contiguous property (other than the Frontage
Property) owned by Landlord that is not subject to Bona Fide Offer at the
fair market value for such property as agreed by the parties. If the
parties are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Property
within ten (10) days after delivery of Tenant's election to purchase the
Property (the "Option Exercise Notice"), then the fair market value shall
----------------------
be determined by an appraiser selected by the parties who is a member of
the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers with at least five years
of experience appraising property comparable to and in the geographic area
of the Property. Such appraiser's determination of the fair market value
of the Property shall be binding on the parties. If the parties are unable
to agree upon the selection of an appraiser, each party shall select a
qualified appraiser and the two selected appraisers shall select a
qualified third appraiser who will determine the fair market value of the
Property. If Tenant does not exercise its right of refusal under this
paragraph (a), either by notifying Landlord in writing of its election not
-------------
to exercise such right or by failing to notify Landlord in writing of
Tenant's election within the thirty (30) business day period following its
receipt of notice of the Bona Fide Offer to purchase the Property, then
Tenant conclusively shall be deemed to have elected not to purchase the
Property and Landlord shall be entitled to sell the Property to any third
party at any time within 6 months of the Bona Fide Offer upon such terms of
the Bona Fide Offer, without any further notice to Tenant. If Tenant
elects to purchase the Property within said thirty (30) business day
period, the Tenant promptly shall enter into a purchase agreement with
Landlord to buy the Property on the terms and conditions set forth in such
Bona Fide Offer with appropriate adjustments as set forth in this paragraph
---------
(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the
---
Tenants rights under this Section shall not apply to any transfer, sale, or
assignment from the Landlord to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
any child, family member or relative of either ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, any entity owned or controlled by any of the foregoing or any
charitable organization, any trust created for the benefit of any of the
foregoing (the "Related Parties").
---------------
29
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, Landlord may
at any time transfer, sell or assign the Property in any manner to a Related
Party without the consent of Tenant, and paragraph (a) hereinabove hereof shall
-------------
be subject and subordinate to the rights of Related Parties with respect to the
Property provided that upon any transfer to a Related Party, the Related Party
shall be bound by the terms of paragraph (a).
Section 13.16 Purchase Option.
---------------
(a) Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the option to elect to purchase,
during the sixty-first (61st) through the sixty-fourth (64th) month of the Term
and during the one hundred and twentieth (120th) month of the Term and to close

interest in the Property, including without limitation, the buildings, parking
lot, fixtures and improvements constructed on the land, all of Landlord's
equipment, machinery, furniture, inventory and other personal property located
upon and used in connection with the operation of the Property. At the same
time as the Tenant's delivery of the Option Exercise Notice (hereinafter
defined) to Landlord, Tenant may elect to purchase any or all vacant or
undeveloped land that is contiguous to the Property, except the Frontage
Property which is specifically excluded from this Purchase Option, upon the same
terms and conditions set forth herein.
(b) The total base purchase price for the Property (the "Base Purchase
-------------
Price") shall be ninety-five percent (95%) of the fair market value of the
-----
Property as such fair market value is agreed upon by the parties. If the
parties are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Property within
ten (10) days after delivery of Tenant's election to purchase the Property (the
"Option Exercise Notice"), then the fair market value shall be determined by an
----------------------
appraiser selected by the parties who is a member of the American Institute of
Real Estate Appraisers with at least five years of experience appraising
property comparable to and in the geographic area of the Property. Such
appraiser's determination of the fair market value of the Property shall be
binding on the parties. If the parties are unable to agree upon the selection
of an appraiser, each party shall select a qualified appraiser and the two
selected appraisers shall select a qualified third appraiser who will determine
the fair market value of the Property. The Purchase Price shall be paid in cash
at the Closing.
(c) At the Closing (hereinafter defined), Landlord shall convey the
Property to Tenant by special warranty deed (the "Deed") in form and substance
----
reasonably acceptable to Tenant and Landlord.
