LEASE

 

THIS LEASE (“Lease”) is made as of June 28, 2004 by and between Century National
Properties, Inc., a California corporation (“Landlord”), and First Bank of
Beverly Hills, F.S.B., a federal chartered savings institution (“Tenant”), upon
the following terms and conditions:

 

1. Premises; Common Areas.

 

1.1 Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord,
upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, those certain premises
(the “Premises”) described in Section 1.1.1 of the Basic Lease Information (as
defined below) and outlined in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and hereby made a
part hereof. For purposes of this Lease, the rentable and usable areas of the
Premises have been or shall be determined by Landlord’s space planner or
architect by reference to the “Standard Method for Measuring Floor Area in
Office Buildings,” adopted by the Building Owners and Managers Association
International and approved by the American National Standards Institute, Inc.,
as reprinted May, 1981, except that, for the purposes of this Lease, in no event
shall the rentable area of the Premises exceed one hundred twelve and one-half
percent (112.5%) of the usable area of the Premises nor shall the rentable area
of the Building exceed one hundred twelve and one-half percent (112.5%) of the
usable area of the Building. The Premises are situated in that certain office
building (the “Building”) located at 23901 Calabasas Road, Calabasas, California
91302. The land upon which the Building is located (the “Property”), together
with the Building and related facilities and appurtenances, shall hereinafter be
collectively referred to as the “Project.” The terms and conditions of this
Lease shall include, without limitation, the following basic Lease information
(the “Basic Lease Information”):

 

1.1.1  Premises (Section 1.1): Suite(s) 1020 (approximately 3,251 rentable and
2,890 usable square feet), 1050 (approximately 12,480 rentable and 11,243 usable
square feet) and 1056 (approximately 755 rentable and 671 usable square feet) on
the first floor, totaling approximately 16,486 rentable and 14,804 usable square
feet. Square footage figures shall not be subject to revision (resulting in a
corresponding revision of the rental and other provisions hereof based on such
figures), except to reflect any actual change in the size of the Premises or the
rentable area of the Building.

 

1.1.2  Lease term (Section 2): Ten (10) years, scheduled to commence on
September 1, 2004, and expiring on August 31, 2014 (“Expiration Date”).

 

Notwithstanding the Expiration Date set forth hereinabove, Tenant shall have the
personal non-assignable option right (“Lease Termination Option”) to terminate
the Lease to be effective on February 29, 2012 (“Lease Termination Date”) by
giving Landlord prior written notice (“Lease Termination Notice”) received by
Landlord on or before September 1, 2011 (“Lease Termination Notice Expiration
Date”), such Lease Termination Option being conditioned upon the following:

 

a) that Tenant shall be in good standing and not in monetary or material
non-monetary breach or default of the Lease beyond applicable notice and cure
periods at the time the Lease Termination Notice is given or at the Lease
Termination Date;

 

b) that Tenant shall pay Landlord a termination fee (“Lease Termination Fee”)
equal to the remaining unamortized portion of Landlord’s Construction Costs and
remaining unamortized portion of Leasing Commissions paid (as defined in the
Work Agreement attached to this Lease as Exhibit “C” and made a part hereof)
pertaining to the Premises, as calculated hereinbelow, all due and payable
within thirty (30) days of the date of the Lease Termination Notice; and

 

c) that, inasmuch as such Lease Termination Option is personal to the original
Tenant hereunder, Tenant has not subleased the Premises (or any portion thereof)
or assigned or transferred any interest in the Lease or in the Premises, or
entered into any agreement to do the same, at any time prior to such attempted
exercise or thereafter until such Lease Termination Date.

 

1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Lease Termination Fee shall be an amount computed by taking the remaining
unamortized portion (that is, the portion not amortized over the period of the
Lease term from the Commencement Date through the Lease Termination Date), as of
the Lease Termination Date, of Landlord’s Construction Costs and Leasing
Commissions based on equal monthly installments in an amount sufficient to
amortize such amounts, together with interest at eight percent (8%) per annum,
over one hundred twenty (120) months. Once Landlord has determined the amount of
Landlord’s Construction Costs incurred pursuant to the Work Agreement, a written
summary will be provided to Tenant for its Lease file. By way of example, if the
total sum of Landlord’s Construction Costs and Leasing Commissions is
$425,000.00 and the Lease is terminated at the expiration of the ninetieth
(90th) month of the term, then the amount payable by Tenant based on a one
hundred twenty (120) month amortization at eight percent (8%) interest
(K=0.01214) shall be:

 

$425,000.00 x 0.01214 x 30 mos. = $154,785.00

Each reference in this Lease to any of the Basic Lease Information shall be
construed to incorporate, in addition to the Basic Lease Information, the terms
and conditions set forth in the particular Lease section in which such reference
is made.

 

1.2 The term “common areas” as used in this Lease shall mean all areas and
facilities outside the Premises and in the Project which are provided and
designated from time to time by Landlord for the general non-exclusive use of
Landlord, Tenant and other tenants of the Project and their respective employees
and invitees. Common areas include, without limitation, the lobby area,
walkways, parking facilities, landscaped areas, sidewalks, service quarters,
hallways, restrooms (if not part of the Premises), stairways, elevators (except
elevators which may be reserved for the exclusive use of one or more tenants),
walls, fire stairs, telephone and electric closets, aisles, plazas, service
areas, lobbies and all other common and service areas of the Property and
Building or any other area of the Project intended for such use. Floors wholly
occupied by Tenant shall not have any facilities which would be used in common
with other tenants, except for fire stairs, shafts and similar installations.
Landlord hereby grants to Tenant, for the benefit of Tenant and its employees
and invitees, during the term of this Lease, the non-exclusive right to use, in
common with others entitled to such use, the common areas as they exist from
time to time, subject to any rights, powers and privileges reserved by Landlord
under the terms hereof or under the terms of any rules and regulations or
restrictions governing the use of the Project. Without Tenant’s consent and
without liability to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to do the following:

 

1.2.1 Establish and enforce reasonable rules and regulations concerning the
maintenance, management, use and operation of the common areas;

 

1.2.2 Temporarily close any of the common areas for maintenance, alteration or
improvement purposes, so long as Landlord ensures that there is reasonable
access to the Premises for use by Tenant and its visitors;

 

1.2.3 Select, appoint and/or contract with any person for the purpose of
operating and maintaining the common areas; and

 

1.2.4 Change the size, use, shape or nature of any of the common areas.

 

Landlord shall provide reasonable advance notice (except with respect to Section
1.2.3 above, or for emergency situations) and shall use reasonable efforts to
minimize any interference with Tenant’s use of, parking for,” visibility of, and
access to the Premises resulting from Landlord’s exercise of such rights. If
Landlord’s exercise of its rights under this Section 1.2, Section 8.1, Article.
18 or Section 38.20 materially interferes with Tenant’s” use of the Premises,
and such material interference continues for more than three (3) business days
following Landlord’s receipt of written notice from Tenant setting forth the
actions of Landlord which are creating such material interference, Base Rent
shall abate to the extent of such material interference from the fourth (4th)
business day after Landlord’s receipt of such notice until such material
interference ceases.

 

2. Term. The term of this Lease shall commence on September 1, 2004 (the
“Commencement Date”) and shall continue for the number of years and full months
specified in Section 1.1.2, unless sooner terminated pursuant to any provision
hereof. If permission is given to Tenant, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to
enter or occupy Suite 1056 prior to the Commencement Date, such early entrance
or occupancy shall be subject to all the terms of such permission and all the
provisions of this Lease which could be reasonably and logically construed as
applying thereto, and Tenant shall not in any way interfere with or delay any
work from being substantially completed or otherwise cause additional cost or
expense to Landlord. Tenant is currently in possession of Suites 1020 and 1050
pursuant to leases dated September 21, 2000 (the “1020 Lease”) and October 31,
1999 (the “1050 Lease”), both of which will expire August 31, 2004, and Tenant
accepts Suites 1020 and 1050 in their existing condition, and

 

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tenant accepts Suite 1056 in its “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS” condition.
Until the Commencement Date, Tenant’s occupancy of Suites 1020 and 1050 shall
continue to be subject to such leases, and if Tenant’s work in Suite 1056 is
completed and Tenant occupies Suite 1056 prior to the Commencement Date, Suite
1056 will be subject to the provisions of the 1050 Lease, and rent under the
1050 Lease will be increased as of such completion and occupancy by an amount
equal to $1,547.75; provided, that as of the Commencement Date, the 1020 Lease
and the 1050 Lease shall cease to be of any further force or effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and so long as Tenant is not then in default
under this Lease, within fourteen (14) days after the date this Lease is fully
executed and delivered by Landlord and Tenant, Landlord shall (i) return to
Tenant the security deposits Landlord is holding under the 1020 Lease and the
1050 Lease, being $6,644.55 and $24,960.00, respectively, and (ii) refund or
return to Tenant the early termination fee of $23,568.23 which Tenant had
delivered to Landlord under the 1020 Lease.

 

3. Base Rent; Adjustment; General Rent Provisions.

 

3.1 Tenant shall pay to Landlord as base rent (“Base Rent”) for the Premises,
without prior notice or demand, throughout the term of this Lease, the amount so
specified in Section 1.1.3 of the Basic Lease Information (subject to any
increase provided for herein), in advance, in equal monthly installments, on or
before the first day of each and every calendar month during the term hereof,
except that Base Rent for the first full month for which Base Rent shall be
payable hereunder shall be paid upon Tenant’s execution and delivery hereof.

 

3.2 The Base Rent specified in Section 1.1.3 of the Basic Lease Information
shall be increased as of the dates specified in said Section 1.1.3.

 

3.3 Base Rent and any other rent (except for parking rental) due under this
Lease for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one (1) month
shall be a pro rata portion of the monthly amount due, based upon a thirty (30)
day month. If the Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar month,
Base Rent for the partial month between the Commencement Date and the first full
calendar month during the Lease term shall be payable on the Commencement Date.
Rent and all other amounts due to Landlord shall be paid to Landlord, without
deduction, offset or abatement, except as may otherwise be specifically set
forth in this Lease, at Landlord’s address as specified in Section 27 below or
to such other firm or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time
designate in writing. Landlord shall have the right to accept all rent and other
payments, whether full or partial, and to negotiate checks in payment thereof
without any waiver of rights, irrespective of any conditions to the contrary
sought to be imposed by Tenant. Rent hereunder shall be deemed paid to Landlord
when received by Landlord, or its designee, at Landlord’s address, or at such
other address as Landlord shall have designated.

 

4. Additional Rent.

 

4.1 If, in any calendar year during the term of this Lease, commencing with the
calendar year 2006, the Direct Costs (as defined in Section 4.8 below) shall
exceed the base direct costs specified in Section 1.1.4 of the Basic Lease.
Information (the “Base Direct Costs”), Tenant shall pay as additional rent
(“Additional Rent”), on or before the first day of each and every calendar month
during the term hereof, an amount equal to Tenant’s percentage share, as
specified in Section 1.1.5 of the Basic Lease Information, of such excess.

 

4.2 Prior to the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a
written statement or statements showing in reasonable detail Landlord’s
estimated Direct Costs for the immediately succeeding calendar year (and, if the
amount of Base Direct Costs are not yet known or have not yet been determined,
Landlord’s estimate of such Base Direct Costs), the amount, if any, of the
excess of such estimated Direct Costs over the Base Direct Costs, and the amount
of any Additional Rent payable by Tenant, appropriately prorated on a monthly
basis. Thereafter, the monthly Additional Rent payment becoming due hereunder
shall be in the amount set forth in such estimated Additional Rent statement
from Landlord. Neither Landlord’s failure to deliver, nor the late delivery of,
such statement or statements shall constitute a default by Landlord hereunder or
a waiver of Landlord’s right to any estimated or actual Additional Rent.

 

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.3 Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the close of each calendar
year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written statement of reconciliation
(the “Reconciliation”) showing in reasonable detail Landlord’s actual Direct
Costs for the relevant calendar year, together with a statement of any
adjustments necessary to reconcile any sums paid hereunder as estimated
Additional Rent during such calendar year with those sums actually due and
payable hereunder for such calendar year as set forth in the Reconciliation. If
the Reconciliation shows that additional sums are due from Tenant hereunder,
Tenant shall pay such sums to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of the
Reconciliation. If the Reconciliation shows that an overpayment has been made by
Tenant, such overpayment shall be refunded to Tenant within thirty (30) days
after Tenant’s receipt of the Reconciliation. In the event this Lease has
expired or been terminated prior to the end of a calendar year, the parties’
obligation to reconcile shall survive such expiration or termination. Landlord’s
failure to deliver the Reconciliation to Tenant as provided herein shall not
constitute a default by Landlord hereunder nor operate as a waiver of Landlord’s
right to collect all Additional Rent and other sums due hereunder. Where only a
portion of a calendar year falls within the term hereof, Landlord shall
calculate estimated (or actual, as the case may be) Additional Rent based upon a
reasonable proration of estimated (or actual) Direct Costs for such calendar
year and a reasonable proration of Base Direct Costs.

 

4.4 Landlord may divide the statements referred to above into separate
statements for Tax Costs (as defined in Section 4.6 below) and Operating Costs
(as defined in Section 4.7 below). Additionally, Landlord may estimate and
measure Tax Costs or Operating Costs, or both, on a fiscal year instead of a
calendar year basis, and in such event any and all references in this Section 4
to calendar year shall be deemed to refer to such fiscal year.

 

4.5 Any reference to Landlord’s “actual” Direct Costs in this Section 4 shall be
deemed to include an allowance for any adjustment to reflect the level of
occupancy of the Building to the extent provided for below.

 

4.6 “Tax Costs” shall mean the sum of the following: any and all real property
taxes, assessments (including, but not limited to, general and special
assessments), charges, surcharges, license and other fees, levies, costs of
improvement bonds, penalties, interest and any and all other taxes (other than
income, franchise, estate and gift taxes of Landlord) on or relating to all or a
portion of the Project (as it may exist from time to time) which may be imposed,
levied, assessed or charged for any reason by any authority having the direct or
indirect power to tax including, but not limited to, the United States or the
state, county or city in which the Building is located, or any other local
governmental authority, agency, district or political subdivision thereof,
together with personal property taxes, assessments, fees and charges (other than
those paid by Tenant pursuant to Section 28 below and other than those
attributable exclusively to the cost of Tenant’s leasehold improvements and
alterations in excess of the Leasehold Improvement Allowance, which shall be
Tenant’s sole responsibility), and fees of tax consultants and attorneys
retained to seek a reduction, to contest or to act in some other manner in
connection with any of the foregoing Tax Costs, together with any tax,
assessment or other amount (including, without limitation, commercial rental
taxes) imposed, levied or charged as a substitute for or a supplement to the
foregoing. If, for any calendar year subsequent to any base year used herein,
the assessed valuation or Tax Costs of the Building shall not be based upon a
completed building at least ninety-five percent (95%) occupied, the Tax Costs
for said calendar year shall be adjusted to reflect the amounts which would have
been payable if the Building had been completed and had been ninety-five percent
(95%) occupied; provided, however, in no event shall the Tax Costs, as adjusted
for any calendar year, exceed the actual Tax Costs of the Building for a fully
assessed completed Building. Tax Costs for each tax year shall be appropriately
prorated to determine the Tax Costs for the subject calendar year.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tax Costs shall not include penalties or interest
assessed as a result of Landlord’s failure to pay any Tax Costs when due unless
such failure is caused by a breach of and default under this Lease by Tenant in
which event all such penalties and interest shall be paid by Tenant. In the
event the Building or the Project is sold, transferred or exchanged during the
term of this Lease, any increase in taxes arising from the first such sale,
transfer or exchange during the term shall be excluded from Tax Costs, but any
increase in taxes arising from the second and any subsequent sales, transfers or
exchanges shall be included in Tax Costs.

 

4.7 “Operating Costs” shall mean the sum of the following: any and all costs,
expenses and disbursements paid or incurred by Landlord in connection with the
management, operation, security, maintenance and repair of the Project (as it
may exist from

 

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

time to time) including, but not limited to, salaries, wages, benefits and
related costs for employees; management fees, either as charged to Landlord by
outside management companies or an amount not exceeding the amount typically
charged by outside management companies if Landlord manages the Project itself,
together with the rental value of space occupied as the Project management
office; charges for utilities and services (including any taxes thereon); the
cost of insurance, including any deductible amount under any insurance policy;
the cost of building and cleaning supplies and materials; a reasonable allowance
for depreciation (or amortization) with respect to machinery and equipment and
other capital expenditures and improvements, but the only depreciation (or
amortization) includable in Operating Costs shall be a reasonable allowance for
depreciation (or amortization) on (a) items intended to result in cost savings,
(b) common area interior floor and wall coverings and resurfacing and common
area window treatments, and (c) changes, alterations, additions, improvements
and removals to or from the Project required by law (other than those
attributable to Tenant’s specific acts, use or occupancy, which shall be
Tenant’s sole responsibility); and financing costs (which, with respect to any
internal financing, shall be imputed at an annual rate reasonably determined by
Landlord), but the only such financing costs includable in Operating Costs shall
be with respect to capital expenditures and improvements included in clauses
(a), (b) and (c) above. If, during any calendar year subsequent to any base year
used herein, the Building is less than ninety-five percent (95%) occupied, the
Operating Costs, which may vary due to the level of occupancy, shall be adjusted
to reflect the amounts which would have been payable if the Building had been
ninety-five percent (95%) occupied.

 

Operating Costs shall exclude:

 

(a) Costs for utilities, services and other benefits directly charged to and
reimbursable by Tenant or other tenants or occupants.

 

(b) Salaries, wages, benefits and related costs for employees above the
managerial level.

 

(c) Costs for utilities, services and other benefits provided selectively to

loss.

 

(g) Leasing commissions, leasehold improvement and refurbishment costs, space
preparation costs, attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in
connection with negotiations or disputes with present or prospective tenants or
other occupants.

 

(h) Interest, principal, points and fees on any debt instrument encumbering all
or any portion of the Project, except for financing costs specified in Section
4.7.

 

(i) Landlord’s general and administrative overhead expenses, except to the
extent included in management fees, or legal or other costs associated with or
resulting from legal proceedings or disputes between Landlord and its employees
and agents.

 

(j) Advertising costs.

governmental rule or authority, or the cost of correcting any violations which

Tenant’s failure to pay rent when due.

(l) Landlord’s charitable or political contributions.

 

(m) Costs incurred in connection with correcting defects in the initial design
or construction of the Building.

 

(n) Except for making repairs, providing janitorial or similar services, or
keeping permanent systems in operation while repairs are being made, rental and

specified in Lease Section 4.7.

 

(o) Costs of management and operation of the parking facilities to the extent
that the costs of managing and operating the parking facilities exceed the
rental or revenues received therefrom.

 

(p) Costs in connection with space leased for retail uses only.

 

(q) Costs or credits recalculated and actually incurred more than three (3)
years prior to the year in which Landlord proposes that such costs or credits be

hazardous materials in effect and applicable to the Building as of the date

(t) Costs for items or services provided after the Commencement Date which were
not provided prior to the Commencement Date, unless Base Direct Costs are
adjusted to reflect such item or service (provided, that this subparagraph (t)
shall not apply to repair and maintenance items or services that are included
within the definition of Operating Costs but which may be performed on other
than an annual basis).

 

If Landlord elects to hire an affiliated entity which is controlled by Landlord
to perform any services or provide materials for the operation and maintenance
of the Project, then the fees charged by the affiliated entity shall be
competitive with those otherwise charged by unaffiliated third parties. It is
understood that Operating Costs shall be reduced by all discounts received by
Landlord, or Landlord’s managing agent, in the purchase of goods, utilities, or
services obligated to be provided by Landlord to the Project. Landlord shall use
its commercially reasonable efforts to effect an equitable proration of costs
for services rendered and allocated to the Project and to any other property
owned by Landlord.

 

4.8 “Direct Costs” shall mean both Tax Costs and Operating Costs, whether
determined separately or jointly.

 

4.9 Tenant may, within ninety (90) days after receiving the Reconciliation, give
Landlord written notice (“Review Notice”) that Tenant intends to review
Landlord’s records of the Operating Costs and Tax Costs for that calendar year.
Within a reasonable time after receipt of the Review Notice, Landlord shall make
all pertinent records available for inspection that are reasonably necessary for
Tenant to conduct its review. If any records are maintained at a location other
than the office of the Building, Tenant may either inspect the records at such
other location or pay for the cost of copying the records and having them
shipped to Tenant. If Tenant retains an agent to review Landlord’s records, such
agent shall not be compensated by Tenant on a contingency fee basis. Tenant
shall be solely responsible for all costs, expenses and fees incurred for the
audit. Within sixty (60) days after the records are made available to Tenant,
Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord written notice (an “Objection
Notice”) stating in reasonable detail any objection to the Reconciliation for
that year. If Tenant fails to give Landlord an Objection Notice within the sixty
(60) period or fails to provide Landlord with a Review Notice within the ninety
(90) day period described above, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such
Reconciliation and shall be barred from raising any claims regarding the
Operating Costs and Tax Costs for that year. If Tenant provides Landlord with a
timely Objection Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith

 

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to resolve any issues raised in Tenant’s Objection Notice. If Landlord and
Tenant determine that Operating Costs and Tax Costs for the calendar year are
less than reported, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit against the next
installment of Base Rent in the amount of the overpayment by Tenant. Likewise,
if Landlord and Tenant determine that Operating Costs and Tax Costs for the
calendar year are greater than reported, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of
any underpayment within thirty (30) days. The records obtained by Tenant and the
results of the audit shall be treated as confidential. In no event shall Tenant
be permitted to examine Landlord’s records or to dispute any statement of
Operating Costs and Tax Costs unless Tenant has paid and continues to pay all
Base Rent when due. If it is determined that Direct Costs were overstated by
more than four percent (4%), Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable
costs of such audit, not to exceed $2,500.00.

 

5. Security Deposit. Intentionally omitted.

 

6. Restrictions on Use; Compliance with Laws.

 

6.1 Tenant shall use and occupy the Premises only as specified in Section 1.1.7
of the Basic Lease Information. Any change in such use is absolutely prohibited.
Except as may otherwise be so specified in said Section 1.1.7, Tenant shall not
use the Premises for retail sales, telemarketing, medical, dental or psychiatric
offices, trade school, laboratory, real estate sales or financial depository
uses, or any other use which requires business hours which differ, in any
material respect, from the business hours of the Building as provided in Section
13.1 below or which is incompatible with any use of the Building by any other
tenant or with any exclusive use provision contained in any other lease of any
portion of the Building in effect as of the Commencement Date. Tenant shall not
do or permit anything to be done in or about the Project which will in any way
obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the
Project or injure or annoy them, nor use the Premises or the common areas or
allow same to be “used for any improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable
purpose, nor shall Tenant cause or maintain or permit any nuisance in or about
the Project. Tenant shall not cause or permit any hazardous or toxic waste,
substance or material to be brought to the Project or used, handled, stored or
disposed of in or about the Project; Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense,
comply with any required removal of same. Tenant shall not conduct business or
other activity in or about the Premises if of such a nature as to place an
unreasonable or excessive burden upon the common areas. Tenant shall not commit
or suffer the commission of any waste in or about the Project. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, or anything else in this Lease to the contrary, the use by Tenant
of a portion of the Premises as a fitness/exercise room shall not disturb any
other tenant or occupant of the Building or the Project, shall not exceed one
thousand (1,000) square feet of rentable area, and shall be strictly limited to
employees of Tenant during the business hours of the Building as set forth in
Section 13.1; to the extent the use of such fitness/exercise room causes any
damage to the Premises or the Building (including other tenants’ or occupants’
premises) due to excessive moisture and/or mold, Tenant shall be solely
responsible therefore (Tenant agrees that it will not have a sauna or Jacuzzi in
the fitness/exercise room). Further, Tenant shall not be permitted to change the
use of the bank branch portion of the Premises from “ private banking/investment
to retail or commercial banking without Landlord’s prior written consent in
Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. The bank branch hours shall not exceed
the building hours set forth in Section 13.1.

 

Tenant has the right to install, operate and maintain one (1) walk-up ATM within
the exterior walls of the Premises at locations reasonably acceptable to
Landlord. Tenant shall be entitled, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to
install signage on the ATM, which signage shall be subject to all applicable
governmental laws, rules, regulations, codes and other approvals, and shall be
further subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval. Tenant acknowledges that
Landlord reserves the right to allow other tenants or occupants to install ATMs
within the Project (excluding the Premises). Tenant has the right to and will
provide lighting during hours of darkness for operating ATM (including any ATM
Parking), access area, and the exterior of any enclosed ATM in accordance with
the requirements of California Financial Code Section 13000 et seq., or any
successor statute. Tenant will also comply with all other applicable laws,
ordinances, rules and regulations now or hereafter in effect regarding ATM
lighting standards. If at any time Tenant should wish to provide additional
lighting in order to meet applicable legal requirements, Tenant may do so at
Tenant’s cost, subject to Landlord’s prior reasonable approval as to the
location and design of such additional lighting. Tenant waives all claims it may
have against Landlord on account of any liability, loss, damage or injury
arising from third-party criminal acts in connection with the operation of the
bank branch or the ATM. Notwithstanding

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the foregoing, Landlord shall not, so long as Tenant is occupying at least ten
thousand (10,000) square feet of Floor Area in the Premises and is operating the
bank branch, grant any other tenant in-the Project the right to operate an ATM
in the Project (except that an ATM which is only for the use of another tenant’s
employees shall not be prohibited by this sentence).

 

6.2 Tenant shall not use the Premises or the common areas or permit anything to
be done in or about the Project which shall in any way conflict with any law,
statute, ordinance or governmental rule or regulation now in force or which may
hereafter be enacted or promulgated. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to
be done on or about the Premises or bring or keep anything therein which will in
any way increase the cost of any insurance upon the Building or any of its
contents or cause a cancellation of said insurance or otherwise affect said
insurance in any manner, and Tenant shall at its sole cost and expense promptly
comply with all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental rules, regulations
and requirements now in force or which may hereafter be in force and with the
requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body now or
hereafter constituted relating to or affecting the condition, use or occupancy
of the Premises or the common areas which are required based on Tenant’s
specific use of the Premises. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Tenant shall participate in and comply with any and all governmental
transportation system management and transportation demand management programs
and other transportation and traffic measures applying to the Project from time
to time.

 

7. Improvements and Alterations.

 

7.1 Initial improvements to the Premises (including, without limitation, the
ATM) shall be governed by the provisions of Exhibit “C” attached hereto and
hereby made a part hereof (the “Work Agreement”) and the other provisions of
this Lease not in conflict therewith.

 

7.2 After completion of the initial improvements to the Premises referred to in
Section 7.1 above, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of
Landlord, not to be unreasonably withheld, make or permit to be made any
alterations, additions or improvements in, on or to the Premises or the Project
or any part thereof, except for interior, nonstructural alterations to the
Premises not exceeding Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in cumulative costs per
job (inclusive of all costs for work being performed by various contractors at
or about the same time). Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Tenant
shall not, in any event, make any alterations, additions or improvements which
affect structural portions, mechanical, electrical, plumbing or fire sprinkler
systems of the Building or which are visible from the exterior of the Premises
or which interfere with or disrupt other tenants in the Building or with any
work then being carried out therein by Landlord or its contractors. Any
alterations, additions or improvements desired by Tenant shall be made at
Tenant’s sole cost and expense in compliance with Section 9 below and in
accordance with plans and specifications, and pursuant to governmental permits,
reasonably approved in advance by Landlord. Any contractor selected by Tenant to
make same must be bondable and licensed and be reasonably approved in advance by
Landlord and must provide insurance coverage acceptable to Landlord. Such work
shall be performed by union labor if required by applicable laws. At Landlord’s
option, any alterations, additions or improvements desired by Tenant which
Landlord has consented to shall be made by Landlord (or its contractors) for
Tenant’s account, and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof to Landlord prior to
Landlord’s contracting for such work; provided, however, that the bid obtained
by Landlord shall not exceed the lowest bona fide bid, from a contractor
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, theretofore obtained by Tenant and
communicated to Landlord. Upon completion of any alterations, additions or
improvements, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord a set of “as built” plans and
specifications therefor, and, within ten (10) days after such completion, Tenant
shall cause an appropriate notice of completion to be duly recorded. Tenant
shall cause all such alterations, additions and improvements to be completed in
a good, workmanlike, diligent, prompt and expeditious manner in compliance with
all applicable laws. Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications
shall not constitute a representation or warranty of Landlord as to the adequacy
thereof or compliance thereof with applicable laws. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, in addition to reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord, a
fee equal to the greater of $250 or ten percent (10%) of the total cost of the
subject work for reviewing Tenant’s plans and specifications and Landlord’s
coordination, scheduling and review of the subject work, regardless of whether
Landlord or Tenant contracts for such work, and supervision and coordination by
Landlord of Tenant’s contractors, not to exceed $2,500 per week while work being
performed is supervised by Landlord; provided, that such supervision fee shall
be waived

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if Tenant uses Landlord’s then designated general contractor(s). Tenant shall
not be obligated to use union labor (other than Air-Tec, Landlord’s HVAC
contractor) for alterations costing less than $1,000,000.00.

 

8. Repairs and Maintenance.

 

8.1 By taking possession of the Premises, Tenant shall accept the Premises as
being in the condition in which Landlord is obligated to deliver them and
otherwise in good order, condition and repair (except for latent defects in
Suite 1056). Subject to the provisions of Section 22 below, Tenant shall, at all
times during the term hereof and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, keep the
Premises and every part thereof (including, without limitation, the ATM) in good
order, condition and repair. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and
benefits of subsection 1 of Section 1932, and Sections 1941 and 1942, of the
Civil Code of California and any similar law, statute or ordinance now or
hereafter in effect. It is hereby understood and agreed that Landlord has no
obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair, decorate or paint the Premises or
any part thereof, except as specified in Section 22 below or in the Work
Agreement, and that no representations relating to the condition of the
Premises, the Building or the Project have been made by Landlord (or any
employee or agent thereof) to Tenant, except as may be specifically set forth in
this Lease. Landlord shall commence any repair or maintenance in connection with
those portions of the Premises or Building which Landlord is obligated to repair
or maintain within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice from Tenant
regarding a specific repair or maintenance task.

 

8.2 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.1 above and Section 22 below,
Landlord shall maintain the common areas, the foundation and structural portions
of the Building, and the mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire sprinkler
systems providing the services and utilities to be furnished by Landlord
pursuant to Section 13.1 below, in good order and condition.

 

9. Liens. Tenant shall keep the Project free from any liens arising from any
labor performed or materials furnished in connection with any work done or
caused to be done by Tenant or arising from any obligations incurred by Tenant.
In the event that Tenant shall not, within fifteen (15) days following the
imposition of any such lien, cause the same to be released of record by payment
or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other
remedies provided herein and at law or in equity, the right to cause same to be
released by such means as it shall deem proper including, but not limited to,
payment (from the security deposit referred to in Section 5 above or otherwise)
of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all
expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall be considered additional
rent and shall be payable to it by Tenant on demand with interest at the
Interest Rate (as defined in Section 29 below). Landlord may require, at
Landlord’s sole option, that Tenant cause to be provided to Landlord, at
Tenant’s sole cost and expense, a performance and labor and materials payment
bond acceptable to Landlord with respect to any improvements, additions or
alterations to the Premises. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post
and keep posted on the Premises any notices permitted or required by law, or
which Landlord shall deem proper, for the protection of Landlord, the Project
and any other party having an interest therein from mechanics’ and materialmen’s
liens, and Tenant shall give to Landlord at least five (5) business days’ prior
notice of commencement of any work on the Premises.

 

10. Assigning and Subleasing.

 

10.1 Tenant shall not assign, sublease or otherwise transfer, voluntarily, by
operation of law or otherwise, any interest herein or in the Premises, nor shall
Tenant permit any transferee to further assign, sublease or otherwise transfer
any such interest, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld. For purposes of this Section 10, the term “transfer”
shall include, without limitation, entering into any license or concession
agreement or otherwise permitting any third party other than Tenant and Tenant’s
employees, contractors, invitees and guests to occupy or use the Premises or any
portion thereof. In determining whether to grant such consent, Landlord may
consider various factors including, but not limited to, the following: (a)
business criteria relating to the proposed transferee’s background, experience,
reputation, general operating ability and ability to perform Lease obligations,
and potential for succeeding in its business, (b) financial criteria relating to
the proposed transferee’s financial responsibility, credit rating and
capitalization, (c) the identity and personal characteristics of the proposed
transferee and its invitees and guests, (d) the nature of

 

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the proposed use and business of the proposed transferee and its effect on the
tenant mix of the Project, and (e) the form of assignment, sublease or other
instrument of transfer, as the case may be Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, Landlord hereby reserves the right to condition any such consent
upon Landlord’s determination that (i) the proposed transferee is financially
responsible, and (ii) the proposed transferee shall use the Premises in
compliance with Section 6 above. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to
the contrary, Tenant shall not enter into any proposed assignment, sublease or
other transfer of any interest herein or in the Premises which would result in
(a) detraction from the first-class character or image of the Project or
diminution in the value thereof, (b) the Premises being occupied by more than
three (3) tenants, or (c) a breach by Landlord of any then-existing exclusive
right in favor of any other tenant of the Project, any loan obligation or
agreement, any covenants, conditions and restrictions of record, or any
insurance policy. Hypothecation and encumbering of any of Tenant’s interest
herein is prohibited. Tenant shall submit the following information with a
written request for Landlord’s consent to any assignment, sublease or other
transfer: (i) all transfer and related documents, (ii) financial statements,
(iii) business, credit and personal references and history, and (iv) such other
information as Landlord may reasonably request relating to the proposed transfer
and the parties involved therein. Any transaction which does not comply with the
provisions of this Section shall be voidable at the option of Landlord and shall
constitute a breach of and default under this Lease by Tenant. If Landlord
withholds its consent to a proposed transfer of Tenant’s interest herein or in
the Premises and Tenant requests a statement of reasons therefor pursuant to
California Civil Code Section 1995.260, ten (10) days shall be deemed a
reasonable time for Landlord to state in writing its reasonable objections to
the proposed transfer. Tenant hereby waives any right it may have to recover
consequential damages and to terminate this Lease pursuant to California Civil
Code Section 1995.310.

 

10.2 If Tenant desires at any time to assign, sublease or otherwise transfer any
interest herein or in the Premises, it shall first notify Landlord of its desire
to do so and shall designate in such notice the space and time period involved.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision in Section 10.1 above, Landlord shall
have thirty (30) days in which to elect, at its option, to terminate this Lease;
provided, that Landlord may only terminate the Lease and recapture the Premises
in connection with an assignment, sublease or transfer of the entire. If
Landlord does not, within such thirty (30) day period, deliver to Tenant notice
of its election to so recapture the Premises, Tenant may proceed to assign,
sublease or otherwise transfer in accordance with the terms designated in
Tenant’s notice, subject to the other provisions of this Lease including, but
not limited to, Landlord’s reasonable consent thereto pursuant to the foregoing.

 

10.3 With respect to any assignment, sublease or other transfer of any interest
herein or in the Premises, Tenant shall, notwithstanding any contrary provision
herein, pay to Landlord, promptly following Tenant’s receipt thereof, fifty
percent (50%) of the amount by which all rental and other payments (whether paid
in installments, as lump sums, or otherwise) relating to the space in question
received by Tenant with respect to any period exceed the Base Rent, Additional
Rent and other amounts paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease for the
subject period with respect to such space subleased (with the rental and other
amounts paid by Tenant for the Premises allocated on the basis of rentable
area), and the commercially reasonable costs, brokers’ commissions, legal fees
and alterations actually incurred and paid for by Tenant in connection
therewith. The provisions of this Section shall apply regardless of whether such
assignment, sublease or other transfer is made in compliance with the provisions
of this Lease. Any payments made to Landlord pursuant to this Section shall not
cure any default under this Lease arising from such assignment, sublease or
transfer. Tenant shall not artificially structure any sublease, assignment or
other transfer in order to reduce the amount payable to Landlord under this
Section, nor shall Tenant take any other steps for the purpose of circumventing
its obligation to pay amounts to Landlord under this Section; in the event that
Tenant does same, the amount payable to Landlord under this Section shall be the
amount that would have been payable to Landlord had same not occurred.

 

10.4 Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable costs and
expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’, accountants’,
architects’, engineers’ and consultants’ fees) incurred in connection with the
processing and documentation of any requested assignment, sublease or other
transfer, not to exceed Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00) for each
request.

 

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10.5 No assignment, sublease or other transfer, even with the consent of
Landlord, shall result in Tenant’s being released from any of its obligations
hereunder. Landlord’s consent to any one transfer shall apply only to the
specific transaction thereby authorized and such consent shall not be construed
as a waiver of the duty of Tenant or any transferee to obtain Landlord’s consent
to any other or subsequent transfer or as modifying or limiting Landlord’s
rights hereunder in any way. Upon any assignment hereof, the assignee shall
assume in writing all obligations and covenants of Tenant thereafter to be
performed or observed hereunder. Landlord’s acceptance of rent directly from any
assignee, subtenant or other transferee shall not be construed as Landlord’s
consent thereto nor Landlord’s agreement to accept the attornment of any
subtenant in the event of any termination of this Lease. In no event shall
Landlord’s enforcement of any provision of this Lease against any transferee be
deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to enforce any term of this Lease against
Tenant or any other person. If Tenant’s obligations hereunder have been
guaranteed, Landlord’s consent to any assignment, sublease or other transfer
shall not be effective unless the guarantor also consents to such transaction.

 

10.6 If Tenant is a corporation, an unincorporated association or a partnership,
any change in control thereof shall be deemed an assignment within the meaning
and provisions of this Section 10 and shall be subject to the provisions hereof;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any corporation, fifty
percent (50%) or more of the issued and outstanding stock of which is traded
through a national or regional exchange or over- the-counter or where such
change of control does not adversely affect Tenant’s financial condition. For
purposes of this Section 10, “control” shall mean the possession, directly or
indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and
policies of a company.

 

10.7 Landlord’s consent requirement under Section 10.1 above, Landlord’s right
of recapture under Section 10.2 above, and Landlord’s right to receive amounts
under Section 10.3 above shall not apply to any assignment or sublease to any
bona fide transferee which controls, is controlled by or is under common control
with Tenant, provided that Tenant gives prior written notice of such transaction
to Landlord.

 

11. Waiver; Indemnity.

 

11.1 Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Landlord shall not be liable
and Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for any injury or damage to
any person or property or any other loss (including, but not limited to, loss of
income) in or about the Premises, the Building or the Project by or from any
cause whatsoever, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, whether
caused by water leakage of any character from the roof, walls, basement or any
other portion of the Premises, the Building or the Project, or by gas, fire, oil
or electricity, or by any interruption of utilities or services, or by any
tenant, occupant or other person, or by any other cause whatsoever in, on or
about the Premises, the Building or the Project. Tenant, as a material part of
the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property of
Tenant or injury to persons in or about the Premises, and Tenant hereby waives
all claims in respect thereof against Landlord.

 

11.2 Except to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord
harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorneys’ fees) arising from Tenant’s use or enjoyment of the Project, from the
conduct of Tenant’s business, from any act or omission, work or thing done,
permitted or suffered by Tenant (or any officer, employee, agent, contractor,
representative, licensee, guest, invitee or visitor thereof) in or about the
Project, or from any default under this Lease by Tenant (including, but not
limited to, any of the foregoing relating to any hazardous or toxic waste,
substance or material), except to the extent such is or would have been covered
by insurance carried or required to be carried by Landlord pursuant to this
Lease. If any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord by reason of any
such matter, Tenant shall, upon Landlord’s request, defend same at Tenant’s
expense by counsel satisfactory to Landlord. The provisions of this Section
shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease with respect to any
claims or liability arising from events occurring prior to such expiration or
termination.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be deemed to have waived claims
against Landlord, its agents and employees for injury or damage, or to have

 

12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

assumed risk of injury or damage, to the extent arising from the negligence or
willful misconduct of Landlord and not insured (or required to be insured)
against by Tenant.

 

12. Insurance.

 

12.1 From and after delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant and
throughout the term hereof, Tenant shall carry and maintain, at its own expense,
the following types, amounts and forms of insurance:

 

12.1.1 Tenant shall carry and maintain a policy of commercial general liability
insurance with a combined single limit of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per
occurrence in the name of Tenant (with Landlord and, if requested by Landlord,
any mortgagee, trust deed holder, ground lessor or secured party with an
interest in this Lease, the Building or the Project named as an additional
insured). Such policy shall specifically include, without limitation, personal
injury, broad form property damage, and contractual liability coverage, the last
of which shall cover the insuring provisions of this Lease and the performance
by Tenant of the indemnity agreements in Section 11 above. Such policy shall
contain cross-liability endorsements and shall provide coverage on an occurrence
basis. The amount of such insurance required hereunder shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as reasonably requested by Landlord.

 

12.1.2 Tenant shall carry and maintain a policy or policies of property
insurance in the name of Tenant (with Landlord or, if requested by Landlord, any
mortgagee, trust deed holder, ground lessor or secured party with an interest in
this Lease, the Building or the Project named as loss payee) covering Tenant’s
leasehold improvements and any property of Tenant at the Premises and providing
protection against all perils included within the classification of fire,
extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended peril (all
risk) and sprinkler leakage, in an amount equal to at least one hundred percent
(100%) of the replacement cost thereof from time to time (including, without
limitation, cost of debris removal), with an agreed amount endorsement. Any
proceeds from such insurance shall be used for the repair or replacement of the
property damaged or destroyed, unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to the
provisions hereof. If the Premises are not repaired or restored following damage
or destruction, Landlord shall receive and retain any proceeds from such
insurance allocable to Tenant’s leasehold improvements.

 

12.1.3 Tenant shall carry and maintain a policy or policies of workers’
compensation and employers’ liability insurance in compliance with all
applicable laws.

 

12.1.4 Tenant shall carry and maintain such other policies of insurance
(including, without limitation, business interruption insurance) in connection
with the Premises as Landlord may from time to time require.

 

12.1.5 All of the policies required to be obtained by Tenant pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 12.1 shall be issued by companies licensed and
admitted to do business in California and acceptable to Landlord and shall be in
form and content acceptable to Landlord. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, any deductible amounts under said policies shall be subject to
Landlord’s reasonable approval. Tenant shall, prior to delivery of the Premises
by Landlord to Tenant, provide Landlord with copies of and certificates for all
insurance policies. All insurance policies shall provide that they may not be
modified or canceled until after thirty (30) days’ written notice to Landlord
(by any means described in Section 27 below) and to any other additional insured
thereunder. Tenant shall, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of
any of such policies, furnish Landlord with a renewal or binder therefor. Tenant
may carry insurance under a so-called “blanket” policy, provided that such
policy provides that the amount of insurance required hereunder shall not be
prejudiced by other losses covered thereby. All insurance policies carried by
Tenant shall be primary with respect to, and non-contributory with, any other
insurance available to Landlord. Such policies shall provide that the interests
of Landlord and any other additional insured or loss payee designated by
Landlord shall not be invalidated due to any breach or violation of any
warranty, representation or declaration contained in such policies or the
applications therefor.

 

12.2 During the term of this Lease, Landlord shall keep and maintain property
insurance for the Project in such amounts, and with such coverages, and Landlord
may

 

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

keep and maintain such other insurance, as Landlord may reasonably determine or
as any lienholder or ground lessor may require. Tenant acknowledges that it
shall not be a named insured in such policies and that it has no right to
receive any proceeds from any such insurance policies carried by Landlord.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Landlord shall not be required to
carry insurance covering the property described in Section 12.1.2 above or
covering flood or earthquake.

 

12.3 Each party hereto hereby waives any and all rights to recover against the
other party, or against the officers, employees or principals thereof, for loss
or damage arising from any peril to the extent insured against under any
property insurance policy carried (or required hereunder to be carried) by such
waiving party. Each of the foregoing waivers shall be effective only to the
extent permitted under each such insurance policy, and, to the extent reasonably
available, each such policy shall be endorsed to reflect the foregoing.

 

13. Services and Utilities.

 

13.1 Subject to the provisions contained elsewhere herein and to the rules and
regulations of the Building, Landlord shall cause to be furnished to the
Premises electricity, together with heating, ventilating and air conditioning
(“HVAC”), required in Landlord’s reasonable judgment for the comfortable use and
occupation of the Premises (but not in excess of such utilities and services
which are customarily furnished in comparable office buildings in the immediate
market area), during the business hours of the Building, which shall initially
be 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M., Monday through Friday, and 9:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M.,
Saturday, except for holidays determined by Landlord from time to time, and
janitorial services during the times and in the manner that such services are
customarily furnished in comparable office buildings in the immediate market
area. Landlord shall, at Tenant’s request, provide after- hours HVAC to the
Premises, provided that Tenant shall pay to Landlord a charge therefor (based on
all costs on a particular electrical bill [including, without limitation,
surcharges or other recovery charges]) as reasonably determined by Landlord from
time to time; provided, that Tenant acknowledges that due to variations in rates
charged by electricity providers serving the Premises over the term of the
Lease, and other parameters not within Landlord’s control (such as usage of all
other users [at the Project or elsewhere] serviced by the electricity
providers), it may not be known until a later date whether particular
after-hours usage imposed additional costs to Landlord (and Landlord may need to
retain consultants, which shall be reasonably acceptable to Tenant, to determine
whether there were and the extent of any such additional costs), and Tenant
agrees to pay Landlord for any additional costs (including the cost of any
consultants) as and when requested by Landlord; provided, that Landlord’s
request shall be accompanied by commercially reasonable documentation. Tenant
shall notify Landlord at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance prior to noon
on any business day of-Tenant’s after-hours HVAC requirements. The Building’s
HVAC system shall provide HVAC on a floor-by-floor basis. Tenant shall keep and
cause to be kept closed all window coverings when necessary because of the sun’s
position, and Tenant also shall at all times cooperate fully with Landlord and
abide by all the regulations and requirements which Landlord may prescribe for
the proper functioning and protection of the heating, ventilating and air
conditioning system. If any heat-generating machine, excess lighting or
equipment used in the Premises affects the temperature otherwise maintained by
the air conditioning system, Landlord shall notify Tenant, and Tenant-shall,
within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice, remove or disconnect such
machine or equipment; provided that if Tenant does not remove or disconnect such
machine or equipment, Landlord may install supplementary air conditioning units
in the Premises, and the cost thereof (including, but not limited to, the cost
of installation, separate utility metering, operation and maintenance thereof)
shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand by Landlord. If Landlord, in its
reasonable discretion, determines that the operation of a bank branch or the
ATM, or the use of the “Bank Visitor Only” parking spaces (as described in
Section 334.8) requires the presence of a security guard, Tenant shall be solely
responsible, at its cost, to provide same.

 

13.2 Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 13.1 above, Tenant shall not,
without the prior written consent of Landlord, in Landlord’s sole and absolute
discretion, use in the Premises any apparatus, device, machine or equipment
using excess lighting, electricity or water; nor shall Tenant connect any
apparatus or device to sources of electrical current or water except through any
existing electrical outlets or water pipes in the Premises; provided, that
Tenant shall be entitled to use computers, photocopy, video teleconferencing,
facsimile machines and related office equipment so long as they are properly
connected and do not consume excess electricity. If Tenant shall require excess
electricity

 

14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(including, without limitation, for illuminating signage and/or for
fitness/exercise room equipment) or water or any other resource in excess of
that customarily supplied for use of similar premises, Tenant shall first
request the consent of Landlord, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, and
obtain, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any additional consent required from
governmental authorities. In the event that Landlord gives its consent and any
such additional consent is obtained, Landlord may cause a separate metering
device to be installed in the Premises so as to measure the amount of the
resource consumed within the Premises. The cost of any such separate metering
device including, but not limited to, the cost of installation, maintenance and
repair thereof shall be paid by Tenant. Tenant shall promptly pay the cost of
all excess resources consumed within the Premises, together with any additional
administrative expense incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, which shall
include, without limitation, the cost of changing settings and any energy
management system [“EMS”] personnel and HVAC contractors incurred in connection
with providing such excess resources (and Landlord shall be entitled to charge
an administrative fee/overhead in connection with such excess resources equal to
ten percent (10%) of the administrative expense incurred by Landlord such as for
changing settings or for EMS personnel and HVAC contractors; provided, that
Landlord shall not charge such fee on the actual cost of the excess resources
such as electricity). For purposes of the foregoing, excess electricity shall be
deemed to consist of any amount consumed during a day in excess of .002
kilowatts per hour per usable square foot of the Premises for the number of
business hours of the Building during that day as determined by Landlord for
fluorescent lighting and .002 kilowatts per hour per usable square foot of the
Premises for such number of business hours for convenience power.

 

13.3 Landlord shall not be in default hereunder or be liable for any damages
directly or indirectly resulting from any interruption of utilities or services
caused by (i) the installation or repair of any equipment in connection with the
furnishing of utilities or services, (ii) acts of God or the elements, labor
disturbances of any character, any other accidents or any other conditions
beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, or by the making of repairs or
improvements to the Premises or the Project (in which event Landlord shall use
reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant’s use and quiet
enjoyment of the Premises), or (iii) the limitation, curtailment, rationing or
restriction imposed by any governmental agency or service or utility supplier on
use of water or electricity, gas or any other form of energy or any other
service or utility whatsoever serving the Premises or the Project. Furthermore,
Landlord shall be entitled, without any obligation or compensation to Tenant, to
cooperate voluntarily in a reasonable manner with the efforts of national, state
or local governmental agencies or service or utility suppliers in reducing
energy or other resource consumption; if Landlord shall so cooperate, Tenant
shall also reasonably cooperate therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (a)
utilities or other services necessary for the operation of Tenant’s business are
interrupted, (b) such interruption (1) continues for more than three (3)
business days following Landlord’s receipt of written notice from Tenant
advising of such interruption and (2) is materially and adversely affecting the
operation of Tenant’s business in the Premises, and (c) such interruption is due
to the negligence of Landlord, then Base Rent shall abate from the expiration of
such 3- day period until such interrupted utility or service is restored.

 

13.4 Landlord hereby permits Tenant to use an existing three and one- half
(3 1/2) ton split system air-conditioning unit owned by Landlord (“Auxiliary
HVAC Unit”) serving the existing first floor Premises Suite 1050 computer room.
In consideration therefor, Tenant agrees to keep the unit in good maintenance
and repair at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Any replacement of the Auxiliary
HVAC Unit during the term of the Lease shall be Tenant’s responsibility, and
Landlord shall have no obligation, therefor. The computer room equipment
electric circuits, including the Auxiliary HVAC Unit, the fitness/exercise room
equipment, all signs, and any other electrical equipment in the Premises that
would not typically be located in premises which were being used for general
office purposes (collectively, the “Non-Typical Electrical Equipment”) shall be
metered (or submetered) separately for electric utility consumption, and Tenant
shall be obligated to pay Landlord for the consumption costs as determined
hereinbelow.

 

Electric utility consumption costs for the Non-Typical Electrical Equipment
shall be computed by taking the electric consumption measured by separate meter
in kilowatt hours (“KWH”) for a given time period (“Billing Period”) and
multiplying it times the Project’s average unit cost per KWH for the
corresponding Billing Period. The Project’s average electric utility consumption
costs per KWH (“KWH Unit Cost”) shall be determined by taking the sum total of
all Project electric utility costs required to provide electric power for each

 

15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Billing Period and dividing it by the Project’s total KWH consumption for the
corresponding Billing Period. Any late payment penalties, if any, will be
excluded from the total bill amount. By way of example, if the sum total costs
of all Project electric utility bills for a particular Billing Period are $4,000
based on a total Project consumption of 45,000 KWH, the KWH Unit Cost is $0.089.
If the electric utility consumption for the Non-Typical Electrical Equipment for
the corresponding Billing Period is 850 KWH, then the amount payable by Tenant
to Landlord is $75.65.

 

$4,000. 45,000 KWH = $0.089 KWH

$0.089 x 850 KWH = $75.65

 

Landlord shall determine how many Billing Periods there will be, but not less
than one per year, in order to facilitate meter reading and accounting. At
Landlord’s option, Tenant shall pay an estimated monthly amount for its share of
the electric utility consumption costs based on its average consumption
experience, and Tenant shall pay that amount along with its installment of
monthly rent. In this event, the actual consumption costs payable by Tenant
shall be reconciled at least annually with that paid by Tenant for a given time
period. Any amount payable or overpaid will be added or credited to the next
monthly estimate payable in accordance herewith. All amounts paid by Tenant
hereunder shall be credited to the Project Direct Costs.

 

14. Estoppel Certificate. Within ten (10) days after any written request which
Landlord may make from time to time, Tenant shall execute and deliver to
Landlord a certificate (the “Certificate”) substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit “D” and hereby made a part hereof, together with such
financial information relating to Tenant or any guarantor as Landlord or any
prospective purchaser or lender may reasonably request. Landlord shall have the
right to amend or otherwise supplement the Certificate to include such other
information and provisions as may be reasonably requested by any existing or
prospective lender or by any prospective purchaser. Any failure by Tenant to so
execute and deliver the Certificate shall, at Landlord’s election, constitute a
certification by Tenant that the statements which may be included in the
Certificate (as same may have been so amended or supplemented) are true and
correct, except as Landlord shall otherwise indicate. Landlord and Tenant intend
that the Certificate may be relied upon by any existing or prospective lender or
by any prospective purchaser.

 

Similarly, within ten (10) days after any written request which Tenant may make
from time to time, Landlord shall execute and deliver to Tenant an estoppel
certificate (the “Estoppel”) with such financial information relating to
Landlord as Tenant may reasonably request. Tenant shall have the right to amend
or otherwise supplement the Estoppel to include such other information and
provisions as may be reasonably requested by Tenant. Any failure by Landlord to
so execute and deliver the Estoppel shall, at Tenant’s election, constitute a
certification by Tenant that the statements which may be included in the
Estoppel (as same may have been so amended or supplemented) are true and
correct, except as Landlord shall otherwise indicate. Landlord and Tenant intend
that the Certificate may be relied upon by any existing or prospective lender or
by any prospective purchaser.

 

15. Holding Over. If Tenant, with Landlord’s written consent in Landlord’s sole
and absolute discretion, remains in possession of all or any portion of the
Premises after the expiration or sooner termination of the term hereof, such
holding over shall be deemed to constitute a tenancy from month to month only,
upon such terms and conditions hereof as could be reasonably and logically
construed as applying thereto; provided, however, that during such holding over,
Base Rent shall be one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent in effect
immediately prior to such expiration or termination, and any and all options and
rights of first refusal or other preferential rights of Tenant shall be deemed
to have lapsed and to be of no further force or effect. Landlord may terminate
such tenancy from month to month by giving to Tenant at least thirty (30) days’
written notice thereof at any time. Acceptance by Landlord of any rent after
such expiration or termination shall not be deemed to constitute Landlord’s
consent to such holding over.

 

16. Subordination; Requirements of Lenders.

 

16.1 This Lease shall be subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of
trust, or any other hypothecation for security now or later placed upon the
Building or

 

16

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Project and to any advances made on the security of it or Landlord’s interest in
it, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and
extensions of it; provided, that if there is an existing lender as of the
Commencement Date, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a non-disturbance agreement
on such lender’s form. In the event any mortgage or deed of trust to which this
Lease is subordinate is foreclosed or a deed in lieu of foreclosure is given to
the mortgagee or beneficiary, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser at the
foreclosure sale or to the grantee under the deed in lieu of foreclosure. In the
event of termination of any ground lease to which this Lease is subordinate,
Tenant shall attorn to the ground lessor. Tenant agrees to execute any
documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant, required to
effectuate the subordination, to make this Lease subject to the lien of any
mortgage or deed of trust or ground lease, or to evidence the attornment.

 

16.2 In the event any mortgage or deed of trust to which this Lease is
subordinate is foreclosed or a deed in lieu of foreclosure is given to the
mortgagee or beneficiary, or in the event any ground lease to which this Lease
is subordinate is terminated, this Lease shall not be barred, terminated, cut
off, or foreclosed. Neither shall the rights and possession of Tenant under this
Lease be disturbed so long as Tenant is not then in default in the payment of
rental and other sums due under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure
period, or otherwise in default under the terms of this Lease beyond any
applicable notice and cure period, provided that Tenant attorns to the
purchaser, grantee, or ground lessor as provided in Section 16.1 or, if
requested, enters into a new lease for the balance of the term of this Lease on
the same terms and provisions contained in this Lease. Tenant’s covenant under
Section 16.1 to subordinate this Lease to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of
trust, or other hypothecation later executed is conditioned on each senior
instrument containing the commitments specified in this subsection.

 

16.3 If, in connection with the obtainment of financing for the Project or any
portion thereof, the lender requests reasonable modifications hereto as a
condition to the furnishing of such financing, Tenant shall not unreasonably
withhold or delay its consent thereto, provided that such modifications do not
materially increase the obligations of Tenant hereunder or materially adversely
affect Tenant’s rights hereunder.

 

17. Rules and Regulations. Tenant shall observe and comply with the rules and
regulations set forth in Exhibit “E” attached hereto and hereby made a part
hereof and any and all reasonable modifications thereof and additions thereto
from time to time established by Landlord. Landlord shall not be responsible for
the nonobservance of, or noncompliance with, any of said rules and regulations
by any other tenant or occupant of the Building; however, Landlord shall respond
in a reasonable manner to Tenant’s notices of the nonobservance or noncompliance
with any of said rules and regulations by any other tenant or occupant of the
Building, to the extent that such nonobservance or noncompliance interferes with
Tenant’s right of quiet enjoyment. In the event of any conflict between said
rules and regulations and the other provisions hereof, the latter shall control.
Landlord shall enforce the rules and regulations in a non-discriminatory manner.

 

18. Access by Landlord. Landlord reserves, and Landlord (and its agents,
contractors and employees) shall at reasonable times have, the right to enter
the Premises to inspect same, to supply janitorial services and any other
service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder, to show the Premises to
any prospective purchaser, beneficiary, mortgagee or, during the last six (6)
months-of the term hereof, tenant, to post notices of nonresponsibility, and to
make “any alteration, improvement or repair to the Premises or any portion of
the Building, without abatement of rent, except as may otherwise be specifically
provided in this Lease, and may for that purpose erect, use and maintain
scaffolding, pipes, conduits and other necessary structures in and through the
Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed,
provided that entrance to the Premises shall not be blocked thereby, and
provided further that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any
interference with Tenant’s use of and access to the Premises resulting from the
foregoing. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or
inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy
or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby,
except to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
Landlord. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have
and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and about the
Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the right
to use any and all means which Landlord may deem necessary or proper to open
said doors in an emergency, in order to obtain entry to any portion of the
Premises, and any

 

17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

entry to the Premises or portions thereof obtained by Landlord by any of such
means or otherwise shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to
be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an
eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises or any portion
thereof. Landlord shall also have the right at any time, without same
constituting an actual or constructive eviction and without incurring any
liability to Tenant therefor, to change the arrangement and/or location of
entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs,
toilets or other public parts of the Building, provided that Landlord shall use
reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant’s use of and access
to the Premises resulting from the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Landlord’s rights pursuant to this Article 18 shall be subject to the provisions
of applicable banking laws regarding limitation of access to certain portions of
the Premises; provided, that Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of those
portions of the Premises that are not so accessible by Landlord, and of the
applicable banking law provision pertaining to same.

 

19. Default by Tenant.

 

The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a breach of and default
under this Lease by Tenant:

 

19.1 Failure by Tenant to pay any amount (including, without limitation, monthly
installments of Base Rent and Additional Rent) when and as same becomes payable
in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, or to duly, promptly and
completely perform any obligation of Tenant under Section 14 or 16 above, and
the continuation of such failure for a period of five (5) days after written
notice from Landlord to Tenant specifying the nature of such failure.

 

19.2 Failure by Tenant to duly, promptly and completely perform or observe any
other obligation or covenant of Tenant contained in this Lease, and the
continuation of such failure for a period of twenty (20) days after written
notice from Landlord to Tenant specifying the nature of such failure; provided,
however, that if any such failure not involving an emergency or a hazardous
condition is curable within sixty (60) days after such notice, but cannot
reasonably be cured within such twenty (20) day period, Tenant shall not be
deemed to be in default hereunder if Tenant promptly commences such cure within
such twenty (20) day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to
completion within such sixty (60) day period.

 

19.3 Tenant’s abandoning (as defined in California Civil Code Section 1951.3)
the Premises.

 

19.4 Any financial statement or any representation given to Landlord by Tenant,
or any assignee, sublessee, other transferee or successor of Tenant or any
guarantor of this Lease, proves to be materially false or misleading.

 

19.5 The insolvency of Tenant; the making by Tenant of any assignment for the
benefit of creditors; the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have
Tenant adjudged bankrupt or of a petition for reorganization or arrangement
under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or creditors’ rights in general
(unless in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed
within sixty (60) days); the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take
possession of all or a majority of Tenant’s assets or of Tenant’s interest under
this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within sixty (60) days. The
occurrence of any of the acts or events referred to in this subsection with
respect to any guarantor of this Lease shall also constitute a default
hereunder.

 

19.6 The attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of a majority of
Tenant’s assets or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not
discharged within thirty (30) days.

 

The notices referred to in Sections 19.1 and 19.2 above shall be in lieu of, and
not in addition to, any notice required under Section 1161 et seq. of the
California Code of Civil Procedure.

 

18

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

20. Remedies of Landlord.

 

20.1 In the event of Tenant’s breach of or default under this Lease as provided
in Section 19 above, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, and without limiting
Landlord in the exercise of any other right or remedy Landlord may have on
account of such default, and without any further demand or notice, may terminate
this Lease and/or, to the extent permitted by law, remove all persons and
property from the Premises, which property shall be stored by Landlord at a
warehouse or elsewhere at the risk, expense and for the account of Tenant.

 

20.2 If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 20.1
above, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant the aggregate of:

 

20.2.1 The worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent and charges equivalent
to rent earned as of the date of the termination hereof;

 

20.2.2 The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent and
charges equivalent to rent which would have been earned after the date of
termination hereof until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental
loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided;

 

20.2.3 The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent and
charges equivalent to rent for the balance of the term hereof after the time of
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided;

 

20.2.4 Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for the detriment
proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this
Lease or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result
therefrom; and

 

20.2.5 Any other amount which Landlord may hereafter be permitted to recover
from Tenant to compensate Landlord for the detriment caused by Tenant’s default.

 

For the purposes of this Section, the “time of award” shall mean the date upon
which the judgment in any action brought by Landlord against Tenant by reason of
such default is entered or such earlier date as the court may determine; the
“worth at the time of award” of the amounts referred to in Sections 20.2.1 and
20.2.2 shall be computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate, but not less
than the legal rate; and the “worth at the time of award” of the amount referred
to in Section 20.2.3 shall be computed by discounting such amount at the
discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award
plus one percent (1%) per annum. Tenant agrees that such charges shall be
recoverable by Landlord under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1174(b)
or any similar, successor or related provision of law. Further, Tenant hereby
waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1174(c) and
California Civil Code Section 1951.7 or any other similar, successor or related
provision of law providing for Tenant’s right to satisfy any judgment in order
to prevent a forfeiture of this Lease or requiring Landlord to deliver written
notice to Tenant of any resetting of the Premises.

 

20.3 Nothing in this Section 20 shall be deemed to affect Landlord’s right to
indemnification, under the indemnification clause or clauses contained in this
Lease, for claims or liability arising from events occurring prior to the
termination of this Lease.

 

20.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Landlord’s
reentry to perform acts of maintenance or preservation of, or in connection with
efforts to relet, the Premises, or any portion thereof, or the appointment of a
receiver upon Landlord’s initiative to protect Landlord’s interest under this
Lease shall not terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises or any
portion thereof and, until Landlord does elect to terminate this Lease, this
Lease shall continue in full force and Landlord may pursue all its remedies
hereunder including, without limitation, the right to recover from Tenant as
they become due hereunder all rent and other charges required to be paid by
Tenant under the terms of this Lease.

 

20.5 In the event of any default by Tenant as set forth above, then in addition
to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity or under this
Lease,

 

19

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Landlord shall have the right to bring an action or actions from time to time
against Tenant, in any court of competent jurisdiction, for all rental and other
sums due or becoming due under this Lease, including all damages and costs
proximately caused thereby, notwithstanding Tenant’s abandonment or vacation of
the Premises or other acts of Tenant, as permitted by Section 1951.4 of the
California Civil Code or any successor, related or similar provision of law.
Such remedy may be exercised by Landlord without prejudice to its right
thereafter to terminate this Lease in accordance with the other provisions
contained in this Section 20. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this
Lease, Tenant shall in no event be liable for consequential damages hereunder.

 

20.6 The terms “rent” and “rental,” as used in this Section 20 and in any and
all other provisions of this Lease, shall mean Base Rent, Additional Rent and
any and all other amounts payable by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this
Lease.

 

20.7 In the event of Tenant’s abandonment of the Premises, as set forth in
Section 19.3 above, or if Landlord shall elect to reenter or shall take
possession of the Premises pursuant to any legal proceeding or pursuant to any
notice provided by law, and until Landlord elects to terminate this Lease,
Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, recover all
rental as it becomes due under Section 20.5 above and/or relet the Premises or
any part thereof for the account of and on behalf of Tenant, on any terms, for
any term (whether or not longer than the term of this Lease), and at any rental
as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem advisable, and Landlord may
make any alterations and repairs to the Premises in connection therewith. Tenant
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord as its special
attorney-in-fact, irrevocable and coupled with an interest, for purposes of
reletting the Premises pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. In the
event that Landlord shall elect to so relet the Premises on behalf of Tenant,
then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied:

 

20.7.1 First, to reimburse Landlord for the costs and expenses of such reletting
(including, without limitation, costs and expenses of retaking or repossessing
the Premises, removing persons and property therefrom, securing new tenants,
and, if Landlord shall maintain and operate the Premises, the costs thereof) and
necessary or reasonable alterations.

 

20.7.2 Second, to the payment of any indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord other
than Base Rent, Additional Rent and other sums due and unpaid hereunder.

 

20.7.3 Third, to the payment of rent, Base Rent, Additional Rent and other sums
due and unpaid hereunder, and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and
applied in payment of other or future obligations of Tenant to Landlord as the
same may become due and payable. Should the rentals received from such
reletting, when applied in the manner and order indicated above, at any time be
less than the total amount owing from Tenant pursuant to this Lease, then Tenant
shall pay such deficiency to Landlord, and if Tenant does not pay such
deficiency within five (5) days of its receipt of written notice, Landlord may
bring an action against Tenant for recovery of such deficiency or pursue its
other remedies hereunder or under California Civil Code Section 1951.8,
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 et seq., or any similar,
successor or related provision of law.

 

20.8 All rights, powers and remedies of Landlord hereunder and under any other
agreement now or hereafter in force between Landlord and Tenant shall be
cumulative and not alternative and shall be in addition to all rights, powers
and remedies given to Landlord at law or in equity. The exercise of any one or
more of such rights or remedies shall not impair Landlord’s right to exercise
any other right or remedy including, without limitation, any and all rights and
remedies of Landlord under California Civil Code Section 1951.8, California Code
of Civil Procedure Section 1161 et seq., or any similar, successor or related
provision of law.

 

20.9 As security for the performance and observance of all obligations and
covenants of Tenant under this Lease, Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a
security interest in, and hereby assigns and transfers to Landlord, Tenant’s
right, title and interest in and to the rents, issues, profits and other
payments under any sublease, assignment or other transfer of any interest herein
or in the Premises, and Landlord shall apply same toward Tenant’s obligations
hereunder; provided, however, that prior to any default by Tenant hereunder,
Tenant shall have the right to collect and retain such rents, issues, profits
and other payments as they become due and payable. Upon any such default,
Landlord shall have the right at any time thereafter, without notice (except as
may be specifically provided for herein), either in person, by agent or receiver

 

20

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to be appointed by a court, to enter and take possession of the Premises and
collect such rents, issues, profits and other payments, and Tenant hereby
consents to such appointment. Landlord shall not, by reason of this or any other
assignment, nor by reason of the collection of any rents, issues, profits or
other payments received from a sublessee, assignee or transferee, be deemed
liable to such party, for any failure of Tenant to perform or observe any of
Tenant’s obligations or covenants under any such sublease, assignment or
transfer. Tenant hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such sublessee,
assignee or transferee, upon receipt of a written notice from Landlord stating
that Tenant is in default hereunder, to pay to Landlord the rents, issues,
profits and other payments as same become due and payable under such sublease,
assignment or transfer. Tenant agrees that such sublessee, assignee or
transferee shall have the right to rely upon any such statement and request by
Landlord, and that such sublessee, assignee or transferee shall pay rents,
issues, profits and other payments to Landlord without any obligation or right
to inquire as to whether such default exists and notwithstanding any notice or
claim from Tenant to the contrary.

 

20.10 If, after Tenant’s abandonment of the Premises, as set forth in Section
19.3. above, Tenant leaves behind any items of personal property, then Landlord
shall store such property at a warehouse or any other location at the risk,
expense and for the account of Tenant, and such property shall be released only
upon Tenant’s payment of such charges, together with moving and other costs
relating thereto and all other sums due and owing under this Lease. If Tenant
does not reclaim such property within the period permitted by law, Landlord may
sell such property in accordance with law and apply the proceeds of such sale to
any sums due and owing hereunder, or retain said property, granting Tenant
credit against sums due and owing hereunder for the reasonable value of such
property.

 

20.11 To the extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby waives all provisions of,
and protection under, any decisions, statutes, rules, regulations and other laws
of the State of California to the extent same are inconsistent and in conflict
with specific terms and provisions hereof.

 

20.12 If, at any time during the term hereof, Tenant fails, refuses or neglects
to perform any of its obligations hereunder, Landlord may, after twenty (20)
days notice (except in the event of an emergency or a hazardous condition), do
same, but at the expense and for the account of Tenant. The amount of any money
so expended or obligations so incurred by Landlord, together with an
administrative fee equal to ten percent (10%) thereof and interest thereon at
the Interest Rate, shall be repaid to Landlord upon demand by Landlord.

 

21. Default by Landlord; Limitation of Liability.

 

21.1 Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder unless obligations
required of Landlord hereunder are not performed by Landlord, or by any
beneficiary under any deed of trust, mortgagee, ground lessor or other
lienholder with rights in all or any portion of the Project, within thirty (30)
days after written notice thereof by Tenant to Landlord and to such other
parties whose names and addresses are furnished to Tenant in writing, which
notice specifies that there has been a failure to perform such obligations;
provided, however, that if the nature of such obligations is such that more than
thirty (30) days are reasonably required for their cure, Landlord shall not be
deemed to be in default hereunder if Landlord or any of such other parties
commences such cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently
pursues such cure to completion.

 

21.2 If Landlord is in default hereunder and, as a consequence thereof, Tenant
obtains a judgment against Landlord, such judgment may be satisfied only out of
the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Project and out of the rent or
other revenue receivable by Landlord from the Project, or out of the proceeds
receivable by Landlord from the sale or other disposition of all or any portion
of Landlord’s right, title and interest in the Project. Landlord shall in no
event be personally liable for any deficiency or otherwise. Notwithstanding any
contrary provision in this Lease, Landlord shall in no event be liable for
consequential damages hereunder.

 

22. Damage and Destruction.

 

22.1 If the Premises or the Project is damaged by an insured casualty, occurring
more than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the term hereof, Landlord
shall

 

21

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

forthwith repair same, or cause same to be repaired, to the extent that
sufficient insurance proceeds are made available to Landlord therefor and
provided that such repairs can, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, be made within
ninety (90) days from the date of such damage (without payment of overtime or
other premiums) under the laws and regulations of the federal, state and local
governmental authorities having jurisdiction thereof. If Landlord is not so
required to repair such damage, Landlord shall have the option within forty-five
(45) days from the date of such damage either to (i) notify Tenant of Landlord’s
election to repair such damage, in which event Landlord shall thereafter repair
same, or (ii) notify Tenant of Landlord’s election to immediately terminate this
Lease, in which event this Lease shall be so terminated, and Tenant shall also
have the right to terminate this Lease if such casualty occurred within the last
nine (9) months of the Lease term. Landlord shall refund to Tenant any rent
previously paid for any period of time subsequent to such termination.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, and regardless of whether caused
by casualty, (a) Landlord shall not be required to repair any damage to the
property of Tenant or to repair or replace any paneling, decorations, railings,
floor coverings, alterations, additions, fixtures or improvements installed on
the Premises by or at the expense of Tenant, and (b) any damage caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any of its agents, contractors,
employees, invitees or guests shall be promptly repaired by Tenant, at its sole
cost and expense, to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord; provided, however,
that Landlord shall bear said cost and expense to the extent it receives
proceeds, covering such damage, from insurance obtained by Landlord as part of
Operating Costs. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1932,
subdivision 2, and Section 1933, subdivision 4, of the Civil Code of California,
and any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the reconstruction of the Premises will,
in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, require more than nine (9) months from the
date of the casualty, Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice
received by Landlord within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of
written notice from Landlord of the project reconstruction period. Further, if
reconstruction actually exceeds nine (9) months (subject to force majeure),
Tenant may terminate this Lease upon sixty (60) days notice to Landlord;
provided, that if such reconstruction is completed within such 60-day period,
Tenant’s termination notice shall be deemed null and void.

 

22.2 If Landlord repairs damage to the Premises pursuant to the provisions of
Section 18 above or Section 22.1 above, Base Rent and Additional Rent payable
hereunder until such repairs are completed shall be abated in the proportion
that the rentable area of the portion, if any, of the Premises rendered unusable
by Tenant (and therefore not used or occupied thereby) bears to the rentable
area of the Premises; provided, however, that there shall be such rent abatement
only if (a) the damage so repaired is not caused by the negligence or willful
misconduct of Tenant or any of its agents, contractors, employees, invitees or
guests, and (b) a material portion of the Premises is so rendered unusable for
more than three (3) consecutive business days after notice thereof from Tenant
to Landlord. Except for such rental abatement, Tenant shall have no claim
against Landlord with respect to any such damage or repairs.

 

23. Eminent Domain. If the entire Premises, or so much thereof (but not less
than 25% of the rentable area of the Premises) as to render the balance thereof
not reasonably usable for the conduct of Tenant’s business, shall be taken or
appropriated under the power of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof,
either party hereto may, by serving written notice upon the other party hereto
within thirty (30) days thereafter, immediately terminate this Lease. If any
substantial part of the Project excluding the Premises shall be taken or
appropriated under the power of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof,
Landlord may so terminate this Lease. If more than fifty percent (50%) of the
“Bank Visitor Only” parking stalls described in Section 34.8, or more than
twenty percent (20%) of all of the parking stalls at the Project, are taken,
then, unless Landlord can replace same, or substitute reasonably comparable
spaces for the taken spaces, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease
by giving written notice received by Landlord within thirty (30) days after
Tenant learns of such taking. In either of such events, Landlord shall receive
(and Tenant shall assign to Landlord upon demand by Landlord) any income, rent,
award or any interest therein which may be paid in connection therewith, and
Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for any part of any sum so paid,
whether or not attributable to the value of the unexpired term of this Lease;
provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent Tenant from pursuing a
separate award (not reducing Landlord’s award) in connection with the taking of
Tenant’s removable tangible personal property placed in the Premises solely at
Tenant’s expense and for Tenant’s relocation costs. If a part of the Premises
shall be so taken, appropriated or conveyed and neither party hereto shall elect
to so terminate

 

22

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

this Lease, (i) Base Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder shall be abated
in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises so
taken, appropriated or conveyed bears to the rentable area of the entire
Premises, and (ii) if the Premises shall have been damaged as a consequence of
such partial taking, appropriation or conveyance, Landlord shall, to the extent
of any severance damages received by Landlord, restore the Premises continuing
under this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to
repair or restore any damage to the property of Tenant or to make any repairs to
or restoration of any alterations, additions, fixtures or improvements installed
on the Premises by or at the expense of Tenant, and Tenant shall pay any amount
in excess of such severance damages required to complete such repairs or
restoration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section,
if the temporary use or occupancy of any part of the Premises shall be taken or
appropriated under the power of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof
during the term of this Lease, this Lease shall be and remain unaffected by such
taking, appropriation or conveyance, and Tenant shall continue to pay in full
all rent payable hereunder by Tenant during the term of this Lease; in the event
of any such temporary taking, appropriation or conveyance, Tenant shall be
entitled to receive any separate award (not reducing Landlord’s award) made to
Tenant as compensation for loss of the use or occupancy of the Premises during
the term of this Lease. To the extent inconsistent with the above, each party
hereto hereby waives the provisions of Section 1265.130 of the California Code
of Civil Procedure allowing either party to petition a court to terminate this
Lease in the event of a partial taking of the Premises.

 

24. Sale by Landlord. If Landlord sells or transfers all or any portion of the
Project including the Premises, Landlord shall, upon consummation of such sale
or transfer, be released from any liability relating to obligations or covenants
thereafter to be performed or observed under this Lease, and in such event
Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlord’s successor-in-interest with respect to
such liability. Landlord may transfer or credit any security deposit or prepaid
rent to Landlord’s successor-in-interest, and upon such transfer Landlord shall
be discharged from any further liability therefor.

 

25. Surrender of Premises. Tenant shall, upon the expiration or sooner
termination of the term hereof, surrender to Landlord the Premises, and all
repairs, changes, alterations, additions and improvements thereto, in good
order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted, clean and free of
debris; provided, however, that Landlord may, upon Landlord’s consent to (or
promptly after notice to Landlord of any items not requiring consent) the
installation or performance of any of such changes, alterations, additions and
improvements, require that Tenant remove same upon such expiration or
termination, in which event Tenant shall so remove same at its sole cost and
expense. Tenant shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the term
hereof, and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, remove all movable furniture,
equipment, signs and other personal property belonging to Tenant placed in the
Premises or the Project solely at Tenant’s expense, as well as the exterior
doors and windows, vault, ATM, signage and entry hardscape/landscaping installed
pursuant to the second paragraph of Exhibit C. Tenant shall immediately, at its
sole cost and expense, repair any damage caused by the removal of any property.

 

26. Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Tenant is not in default hereunder, Tenant shall
have the right to the quiet and peaceful enjoyment and possession of the
Premises and the common areas during the term of this Lease, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Lease.

 

27. Notices. Any notice, demand or other communication given under the
provisions of this Lease by either party hereto to the other party hereto shall
be effective only if in writing and (a) personally served, (b) mailed by United
States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,
or (c) sent by a nationally recognized courier service (e.g Federal Express) for
next-day delivery, to be confirmed in writing by such courier, addressed as set
forth in Sections 1.1.8 and 1.1.9, as applicable, of the Basic Lease Information
with respect to Tenant and as follows with respect to Landlord:

with a copy to the following:

 

Cox, Castle & Nicholson LLP

2049 Century Park East, 28th Floor

Los Angeles, California 90067-3284

Attention: Gary Glick, Esq.

 

Either party hereto may change the address or addresses to which notices,
demands and other communications shall thereafter be sent by giving notice to
the other party as aforesaid. Service by mail shall be deemed complete on the
day of actual delivery as shown by the addressee’s registered or certified mail
receipt or at the expiration of the third (3rd) business day after the date of
mailing, whichever first occurs.

 

28. Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay before delinquency all taxes,
assessments, license fees and other charges (collectively, “taxes”) that are
levied and assessed against Tenant’s trade fixtures and other personal property
installed or located in or on the Premises or any other portion of the Project.
On demand by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with satisfactory evidence
of such payments. If any taxes on Tenant’s trade fixtures or other personal
property are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property, or if the assessed
value of the Building and other improvements in which the Premises are located
is increased by the inclusion of a value placed on Tenant’s trade fixtures or
other personal property, as determined by Landlord, and if Landlord pays such
taxes or the tax based on such increased assessment, Tenant, on demand, shall
immediately reimburse Landlord for such taxes and the tax resulting from such
increase in Landlord’s assessment. Landlord shall have the right to pay these
amounts regardless of the validity of the levy.

 

29. Interest and Late Charges. Any amount not paid by Tenant to Landlord when
due hereunder shall bear interest at a rate (the “Interest Rate”) equal to the
lesser of (a) the rate per annum announced from time to time by Citicorp, N.A.
as its prime rate (or, if such bank fails to announce such a rate, then the
prime rate announced by The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A.) plus two (2) percentage
points, or (b) the maximum rate permitted by law, from the due date until paid,
unless otherwise specifically provided herein, but the payment of such interest
shall not excuse or cure any such failure by Tenant under this Lease. If both
such banks fail to announce a prime rate, then, for the purposes of this Lease,
the prime rate shall be deemed to be the average prime rate of the three largest
(measured by total assets) banking institutions in the continental United States
then announcing a prime rate. In addition to such interest, if any amount is not
paid within ten (10) days after same is due, a late charge equal to six percent
(6%) of such amount shall be assessed, which late charge Tenant hereby agrees is
a reasonable estimate of the damages Landlord shall suffer as a result of
Tenant’s late payment, which damages include Landlord’s additional
administrative and other costs associated with such late payment. The parties
agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to fix Landlord’s
actual damages in such event. Such interest and late charges are separate and
cumulative and are in addition to and shall not diminish or represent a
substitute for any or all of Landlord’s rights or remedies under any other
provision of this Lease. If a late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not
collected, for any three (3) installments of Base Rent or Additional Rent during
any twelve (12) month period, then all further Base Rent and Additional Rent
shall automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance, rather than
monthly, notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary.

 

30. Successors and Assigns. Subject to Sections 10 and 24 above, the provisions
hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns.

 

31. Attorneys’ Fees. In any litigation or other action or proceeding arising
herefrom between the parties hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred therein. The term
“prevailing party” means the party obtaining substantially the relief sought,
whether by compromise, settlement or judgment. Landlord shall be entitled to
recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the preparation and
service of notices of default (or the occurrence of any event which, with notice
or the passage of time, would constitute such a default) and any consultation in
connection therewith, whether or not any litigation or other action or
proceeding is subsequently commenced.

 

24

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

32. Light and Air. Tenant covenants and agrees that no diminution of light, air
or view by any structure which may hereafter be erected (whether or not by
Landlord) shall entitle Tenant to any reduction of rent under this Lease, result
in any liability of Landlord to Tenant, or in any other way affect this Lease or
Tenant’s obligations hereunder.

 

33. Signs and Directory.

 

33.1 Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord in
Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, place, construct or maintain any sign,
advertisement, awning, banner or other decoration on or visible from, or
otherwise use, the exterior of the Premises or the Building (including, but not
limited to, the outer surfaces of the exterior walls and doors of the Premises,
the terraces and roof of the Building, and the common areas). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive, personal and non-assignable
right to (A) install its corporate signage on the south and west corner Building
faces, which signs (i) shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval,
not to be unreasonably withheld, as to location, (ii) shall not exceed 36” in
height for capital letters and 24” in height for lower case letters, (iii) may,
at Tenant’s election, be internally illuminated, and (iv) shall comply with
applicable laws and Landlord’s sign criteria for the Project; (B) if Tenant is
operating a bank branch in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, use the
Building’s exterior column located nearest to the bank branch’s exterior doors
for branch identification; and (C) the second position (below the name of the
Building) on Landlord’s existing monument sign located near the west drive entry
as shown on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and made a part hereof (or if Landlord
obtains the right to and actually constructs a new monument sign at that same
location, Tenant shall be entitled to the second position [below the name of the
Building] on such new sign). Tenant shall be solely responsible for the costs of
designing and fabricating any sign panels it places on the existing monument
sign, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for fifty percent (50%) of the costs
of maintaining, repairing, insuring and replacing the existing monument sign
(and, if a new monument sign replaces the existing monument sign designing,
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for fifty percent (50%) of the costs of
constructing, installing such new monument sign, in addition to the
reimbursement for maintenance, repair, insurance and replacement). Tenant shall
be solely responsible for costs of designing, fabricating, installing,
maintaining, repairing, insuring and replacing its signs on the Building faces
and/or column set forth above, and upon expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease, Tenant shall remove such signs and sign panels and promptly repair
any damage to the sign area.

 

33.2 Landlord shall place, construct and maintain (a) a directory(ies) to be
located in the lobby of the Building and in such other locations, if any, as
Landlord, in its sole discretion, may determine, which directory(ies) shall be
for the display of the business names of tenants in the Building and their
respective suite numbers, and (b) if the Premises are located on a multi-tenant
floor, a sign to be located in the common area hallway at the main entrance to
the Premises in such specific location as Landlord shall determine, which sign
shall be for the display of Tenant’s business name and suite number; provided,
however, that Tenant shall notify Landlord of its business name and shall, upon
demand by Landlord, pay the cost of directory sign strips bearing Tenant’s
business name and the cost of such entrance sign; provided, further, that Tenant
acknowledges that it shall only be entitled to single-line directory sign strips
for Suites 1020, 1050 and 1056. Landlord shall have the sole right to determine
and change from time to time the type of such directory(ies) and such sign and
all common Project signage, and the contents thereof including, but not limited
to, size of letters, style, color and placement.

 

34. Parking.

 

34.1 Subject to applicable rules and regulations, Tenant shall have parking
rights hereunder with respect to such number of its employees’ automobiles in
the parking facilities of the Building, and at such rental rate(s) and upon such
other terms, as may be specified in Section 1.1.10 of the Basic Lease
Information. Should there be an actual change in the size of the Premises at any
time, the number of parking spaces to which Tenant is entitled hereunder shall
be reduced or increased, as the case may be, proportionately to the reduction or
the increase in the number of usable square feet in the Premises. If Tenant
fails to exercise all of its parking rights hereunder continuously throughout
the term hereof, such unexercised parking rights may be granted by Landlord to
others, in which event Tenant’s right in the future to such unexercised parking
rights shall be subject to recapture only upon Tenant giving Landlord written
notice of Tenant’s intent to recapture such parking spaces at least ten (10)
days prior to the first (1st) day of the calendar month immediately preceding
the calendar month Tenant

 

25

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

desires to recapture such parking spaces. Tenant may not sell, assign or
transfer its parking rights hereunder, except pursuant to a permitted sublease
or assignment of this Lease. Except as may otherwise be specifically provided in
said Section 1.1.10 or elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant shall not be entitled to
any designated, reserved, assigned or valet parking hereunder. In addition to
such rights, Tenant and its invitees shall have the right to use in common with
other tenants of the Building and their invitees and the general public any
portions of the parking facilities of the Building designated for public use,
subject to the rates, rules and regulations, and any other charges, fees and
taxes to be collected by Landlord, for such parking facility use. Landlord
reserves the right to establish and alter, from time to time, all such rates,
rules and regulations.

 

34.2 In order to control the use of the parking facilities of the Building,
Landlord may from time to time install ticket dispensers, control gates and/or
issue parking stickers regulating those persons authorized to use such parking
facilities. Tenant shall comply with, and cooperate with Landlord in the use of,
such parking control systems. Except as hereinafter indicated, no charge will be
made to Tenant for its authorized use of the controlled parking facility.

 

34.3 Initially there shall be no charge for visitor parking in the visitor
parking facility. However, Landlord reserves the right to install at any time a
validation parking system under which visitors to the Building may or may not be
charged with a parking fee. If Landlord elects to charge for such validation for
visitor parking, the rates shall be consistent with validation parking rates
prevailing in other similar office building parking facilities located within
the same market area as the Building.

 

34.4 There shall be no charge for employee parking in the parking facilities of
the Building which are designated by Landlord from time to time pursuant to
Section 1.1.10 above, except that any reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in
carrying out the activities described in Sections 34.2 and 34.3 above shall be
included in Operating Costs.

 

34.5 The parking spaces to be used by Tenant, its employees and/or visitors may
be designated in any area of such parking facilities by Landlord at any time and
neither Tenant, its employees or its visitors shall at any time have any right
to require or demand parking in any particular area.

 

34.6 In furtherance of such restrictions as Landlord may designate from time to
time respecting the appropriate parking areas for Tenant or its employees,
Tenant shall furnish to Landlord the motor vehicle license plate number(s) of
itself and all of its employees within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s
written request therefor. If Landlord designates a particular area for the
parking of motor vehicles of Tenant and its employees and Tenant and/or its
employees fail to park their motor vehicles in such areas as evidenced by the
license plate of such motor vehicles or by its failure to display an appropriate
sticker or from other appropriate indications, Landlord may tow away such motor
vehicles parked in unauthorized areas at Tenant’s expense and/or attach
violation stickers or notices to any such motor vehicle(s). Additionally, if any
such motor vehicle violates such restriction on three or more occasions in a
single year, Landlord may revoke or suspend all parking privileges of the person
or persons responsible for such violations.

 

34.7 Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration,
design, layout, and all other aspects of such parking facilities at any time and
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any
liability to Tenant and without any abatement of rent under this Lease, from
time to time, close off or restrict access to such parking facilities for
purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or
improvements. Except for emergency situations, in the event Landlord closes off
or restricts access to the parking facilities, Landlord will provide reasonable
alternative parking for use by Tenant and its visitors during the business hours
of the Building, and if (except in emergency situations), such closing off or
restricting access continues for more than two (2) consecutive business days,
Base Rent shall abate in proportion to the inconvenience to Tenant of such
closing off or restriction of access.

 

34.8 If Tenant operates a bank branch in accordance with the provisions of this
Lease, Landlord shall then designate six (6) parking stalls in front of or near
the exterior entry doors of such branch (as shown on Exhibit “B-l” as “Bank
Visitor Only”; the costs of installing and maintaining (and removing, at the
cessation of the operation of the bank branch)

 

26

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

such stalls shall be Tenant’s sole responsibility, and such stalls shall be part
of the number of stalls that Tenant is entitled to use pursuant to Section
1.1.10. If Landlord installs a parking validation system pursuant to Section
34.3, Landlord agrees that such Bank Visitor Only stalls shall not be subject to
such validation program.

 

35. Brokers. Landlord has entered into an agreement with the real estate broker,
if any, specified as Landlord’s broker in Section 1.1.11 of the Basic Lease
Information (“Landlord’s Broker”) pursuant to which Landlord has granted to
Landlord’s Broker the exclusive right to lease space in the Building. Landlord
shall pay any commissions or fees that are payable to Landlord’s Broker with
respect to this Lease in accordance with the provisions of a separate commission
contract. Landlord shall have no further or separate obligation for payment of
commissions or fees to any other real estate broker, finder or intermediary.
Tenant represents that it has not had any dealings with any real estate broker,
finder or intermediary with respect to this Lease, other than Landlord’s Broker
and Tenant’s broker (“Tenant’s Broker”), if any, specified in Section 1.1.12 of
the Basic Lease Information. Commissions or fees payable to Tenant’s Broker with
respect to this Lease shall be paid by Landlord’s Broker. Subject to the
foregoing, each party hereto shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party
hereto from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and
expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and related
costs) resulting from any claims that may be asserted against such other party
by any real estate broker, finder or intermediary claiming to act on behalf of
the indemnifying party or arising from any act of the indemnifying party in
connection with this Lease.

 

36. Relocation Right. Intentionally omitted.

 

37. Authority. If Tenant is a corporation, trust or partnership, each individual
executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants that he or she
is duly authorized to so execute this Lease and to deliver the same to Landlord.
If Tenant is a corporation, trust or partnership, it shall, within ten (10) days
after execution of this Lease, deliver to Landlord satisfactory evidence of such
authority. If Tenant is a corporation, it shall, upon demand by Landlord, also
deliver to Landlord satisfactory evidence of (a) good standing in Tenant’s state
of incorporation, and (b) qualification to do business in California.

 

38. Miscellaneous.

 

38.1 If Landlord waives the performance of any term, covenant or condition
contained in this Lease, such waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
other breach of the same or of any other term, covenant or condition contained
herein. Furthermore, the acceptance of rent by Landlord shall not constitute a
waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of
this Lease, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the
time Landlord accepted such rent. Failure by Landlord to enforce any of the
terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease for any length of time shall not be
deemed to waive or to affect the right of Landlord to insist thereafter upon
strict performance by Tenant. Waiver by Landlord of any term, covenant or
condition contained in this Lease may only be made by a written document signed
by Landlord.

 

38.2 Any voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, mutual
termination hereof or termination hereof by Landlord shall not work a merger,
and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate, all or any existing subleases
or subtenancies, or may, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to
Landlord of any or all such subleases or subtenancies. In either event, Landlord
shall not be responsible for any obligations or covenants theretofore to be
performed or observed under any such subleases or subtenancies. No act or
omission of Landlord or any representative thereof shall be deemed to constitute
acceptance of any surrender, and no surrender shall be deemed to have occurred,
unless in a writing executed by Landlord.

 

38.3 This Lease shall not be recorded; no memorandum hereof shall be recorded
without Landlord’s prior written consent in Landlord’s sole and absolute
discretion.

 

38.4 Rent and all other sums payable under this Lease must be paid in lawful
money of the United States of America.

 

27

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

38.5 This Lease may be executed in counterparts with the same effect as if both
parties hereto had executed the same document. Both counterparts shall be
construed together and shall constitute a single lease.

 

38.6 Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed to create the
relationship of principal and agent, partnership, joint venture or any other
relationship between the parties hereto, other than the relationship of landlord
and tenant.

 

38.7 Any provision of this Lease which shall prove to be invalid, void or
illegal shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision hereof,
and such other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

 

38.8 The term “Premises” shall be deemed to include (unless, based on the
context, such meaning would be clearly unintended) the space demised and
improvements now or at any time hereafter comprising or built in such space.

 

38.9 The term “Tenant” or any pronoun used in place thereof shall indicate and
include the masculine or feminine, the singular or plural number, individuals,
firms or corporations.

 

38.10 The section headings herein are for convenience of reference only and
shall in no way define, increase, limit or describe the scope or intent of any
provision of this Lease.

 

38.11 In any case where this Lease is entered into by co-tenants, the
obligations of such co-tenants hereunder shall be joint and several.

 

38.12 Time is of the essence of this Lease and all of its provisions.

 

38.13 This Lease shall in all respects be governed by the laws of the State of
California. In any action or proceeding arising herefrom, Tenant and Landlord
each hereby consents to (a) the jurisdiction of any competent court within the
State of California, (b) service of process by any means authorized by
California law, and (c) trial without a jury.

 

38.14 This Lease contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any previous negotiations.
There have been no representations made by Landlord or any representative
thereof or understandings made between the parties other than those set forth in
this Lease. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither Landlord
nor any broker, agent or representative thereof has made any warranty or
representation with respect to the tenant mix of the Building, the identity of
prospective or other tenants of the Building, profitability or suitability for
Tenant’s use, except as may otherwise be specifically set forth herein.

 

38.15 This Lease may not be modified, except by a written document executed by
the parties hereto.

 

38.16 If any guarantee of this Lease is required by Landlord, such guarantee
shall be in form and content acceptable to Landlord.

 

38.17 The words “person” and “persons” as used herein shall include individuals,
firms, partnerships, associations and corporations.

 

38.18 The language in all parts of this Lease shall be in all cases construed
simply according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against Landlord
or Tenant. Any reference to any section herein shall be deemed to include all
subsections thereof unless otherwise specified or reasonably required from the
context. Any reference to “days” herein shall refer to calendar days, unless
specifically provided to the contrary. Unless clearly inconsistent with the
context, any reference herein to “the term hereof” or “the term of this Lease”
shall refer to the term of this Lease as the same may be extended pursuant to
any extension option(s) contained herein. The terms “herein,” “hereunder” and
“hereof as used in this Lease shall mean “in this Lease,” “under this Lease” and
“of this Lease,” respectively, except as otherwise specifically set forth in
this Lease.

 

28

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

38.19 Any and all exhibits, addenda and riders referred to in this Lease shall
be deemed to be incorporated herein as a part hereof.

 

38.20 Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the exterior walls of the
Building and the area between the finished ceilings of the Premises and the slab
of the floor of the Building thereabove have not been demised hereby, and that
the use thereof, together with the right to install, maintain, use, repair and
replace pipes, ducts, conduits and wires leading through, under or above the
Premises, is hereby excepted and reserved unto Landlord.

 

38.21 The submission of this Lease by Landlord or its agent or representative
for examination or execution by Tenant does not constitute an option or offer to
lease the Premises upon the terms and conditions contained herein or a
reservation of the Premises in favor of Tenant, it being intended hereby that
this Lease shall become effective only upon the execution hereof by Landlord and
delivery of a fully executed counterpart hereof to Tenant.

 

38.22 Tenant hereby warrants and represents that neither its execution of nor
performance under this Lease shall cause Tenant to be in violation of any
agreement, instrument, contract, law, rule or regulation by which Tenant is
bound, and Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any claims, demands, losses,
damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising from Tenant’s breach of this
warranty and representation.

 

38.23 Tenant acknowledges that the artist’s rendition of the Project and the
floor plans and other related information that appears in Landlord’s brochure,
if any, may not constitute an accurate representation of the Project but that
Tenant has the right to review the actual building plans and specifications for
the Project at Landlord’s office during regular business hours.

 

38.24 Rent shall not be abated, nor may this Lease be terminated by Tenant,
except as may otherwise be expressly provided herein.

 

38.25 Intentionally omitted.

 

38.26 If any performance by Landlord or Tenant hereunder is delayed due to any
conditions, acts or circumstances beyond the control of Landlord or Tenant, as
the case may be, including, without limitation, war, strike, fire, labor
disturbance, riot or civil commotion, act of government or any governmental
agency, flood, earthquake, landslide, act of God, act of third parties or any
other reason of force majeure, the time within which it is required to complete
such performance shall be extended for a period equal to the period of such

California corporation, as Landlord, and First Bank of Beverly Hills, F.S.B., a
federally chartered savings institution, as Tenant, which Lease is hereby

hereof otherwise requires, the terms defined in the Lease shall have the same
definition when used herein.

 

Subject to Tenant’s completion of the space planning design and improvements to
be made to the Premises, Landlord will reimburse Tenant in the amount, not to
exceed the actual costs paid by Tenant or $285,000 (“Landlord’s Contribution”),
whichever is less, payable in monthly progress payments for percentages of work
completed, and within ten (10) days upon receipt of evidence of payments made,
city approvals, and lien-free completion of work by Tenant for which the
progress payment is being made. Landlord’s Contribution shall be inclusive of
all costs incurred for planning and design, engineering, permits, improvements,
signs/directory listing, fire/life safety systems, or any other costs paid by
Landlord on account of the work to be performed by Tenant (whether paid or
performed directly by Tenant or by Landlord). All space planning and interior
and exterior Building improvement work shall be performed by Tenant, at Tenant’s
expense, regardless of the actual costs incurred, subject to Landlord’s rights
to approve, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, Tenant’s contractors,
plans and specifications for the work. Tenant. shall be responsible at its cost,
prior to expiration or early termination of the Lease, for removal of the
exterior doors and windows, vault, ATM, signage and entry hardscape/ landscaping
installed by Tenant pursuant to this Work Agreement, if any.

 

Tenant may use the space planning firm of its choice, so long as Landlord is
provided with an electronic CADD file, and three (3) sets of plans, showing the
actual as-built plans and specifications covering the work. Tenant shall submit
the proposed plans and specifications for the work, which shall include
engineered plans for electrical, mechanical, and plumbing work to be performed
by Tenant, to Landlord promptly after the Effective Date, and obtain Landlord’s
written approval thereof, which Landlord will not unreasonably delay or
withhold. The plans shall be forwarded to Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable
approval. If Landlord has not approved or disapproved any draft of the plans
within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof (any disapproval shall be
accompanied by a detailed written description of the reasons for Landlord’s
disapproval), and such failure to approve or disapprove such Tenant Plans
continues for three (3) business days after Tenant’s second written request
(which such request shall clearly reference that such Tenant Plans shall be
deemed approved if Landlord fails to approve or disapprove the Tenant’s Plans
within such 3-business-day period), then Landlord shall be deemed to have
approved such draft.

 

All of Tenant’s work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, in
substantial conformance with the Plans, in accordance with all governmental
laws, codes and ordinances, and coordinated with any other work then in progress
at the Project, whether by Landlord or other tenants or occupants of the
Project. Tenant shall obtain, at its sole cost and expense, permits and
approvals from all authorities for the work and shall furnish Landlord with a
copy of said permits prior to commencement of construction. Tenant shall obtain
a Certificate of Occupancy (or its equivalent) at the completion of Tenant’s
work, a copy of which shall be furnished to Landlord. No work performed by
Tenant shall damage the Premises or Building, or any part thereof. Landlord
shall have the right to inspect the work and require Tenant to correct any
faulty work or deviations from Tenant’s Plans. Tenant shall not be obligated to
make any corrections to the base building, unless the performance of Tenant’s
work under this Exhibit “C” results in any corrections needing to be made.

(5) days prior to the commencement of construction, the following information:
(i) the names, addresses and license class and number of all contractors and
subcontractors Tenant intends to engage with respect to Tenant’s work; (ii) the
date on which Tenant’s work will commence, together with the estimated date of
completion of Tenant’s work; (iii) evidence of builder’s all risk, general
liability and worker’s compensation insurance for Tenant’s contractor, or as
Landlord may reasonably require, which shall name Landlord as an additional
insured (notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may elect to self-insure any such
coverage if it has a tangible net worth in excess of One Hundred Million Dollars
($100,000,000), in which case certificates of insurance need not be provided;

 

Exhibit C - Page 1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(iv) copies of all required building and other permits. Tenant covenants that it
shall not make any penetrations to the roof or other modifications to the roof
without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Tenant covenants that Tenant shall not permit any person other than
Landlord’s roofing contractor (whose charges shall be competitive) to penetrate
or make any alterations to the roof.

 

Tenant shall be permitted to use a licensed, qualified, bonded, insurable
commercial tenant improvement contractor possessing good labor relations of its
choice to do the work. However, Tenant shall allow Landlord’s contractor, Ron
Poulson & Associates, Inc. (“RPA”) to competitively bid the preliminary and
final scope of work, and Tenant, in good faith, shall submit to Landlord the
final set of plans, specifications, and schedule along with all contractors’
final bids and qualifications for Landlord’s reasonable review and approval,
prior to contracting for and commencing construction of the work. Regardless of
which contractor Tenant chooses, the air-conditioning (“HVAC”) portion of the
work must be performed by Landlord’s Building HVAC engineer and contractor,
Air-Tec, which Tenant acknowledges is a union contractor, and Tenant agrees to
pay Air-Tec’s rates, provided same are competitive with other union HVAC
contractors in Los Angeles County. Landlord will not charge any supervision fee
on the initial construction work performed by Tenant; provided, Tenant’s
contractor shall provide a qualified and experienced on-site superintendent at
all times that any construction work is performed in the Building or on the
Property. All work shall be guaranteed for a period of one (1) year from
completion.

 

The final payment of Landlord’s Contribution shall be paid to Tenant within
fourteen (14) days after items (a) through (g) below are satisfied:

 

(a) All building permits for Tenant’s work have been issued by the applicable
governmental authorities and copies of such building permits have been delivered
to Landlord;

ROOF TOP SATELLITE DISH ANTENNA LICENSE

 

Landlord hereby grants First Bank of Beverly Hills, F.S.B., a federal chartered
savings institution, or its successors-in-interest, a non-exclusive and
unassignable license to install, maintain, operate, and remove a satellite dish
antenna (the “Dish”) on the roof of the Building, subject to Landlord’s
reasonable prior written approval of the size, height, weight, color, location,
and means of attachment and connection to the Premises. Landlord reserves unto
it the right to use the Building roof for similar installations, and to issue
other similar licenses at its sole discretion. Tenant agrees that no such other
similar license or installation shall impose any liability unto Landlord in
connection with the license rights granted herein; provided, that Landlord shall
use commercially reasonable, good faith and diligent efforts to minimize
interference with the reception and operation of the Dish by any other rooftop
equipment or installations by Landlord or any other tenant or operator or owner
of other similar satellite, microwave, or radio receiving or transmitting
equipment located on or in the Building or the Project whose installation is
subsequent to the later of the installation of the Dish or the Commencement
Date; provided, that Landlord’s efforts shall be based upon the operating
specifications for the Dish, which as of the Commencement Date are as set forth
on Schedule 1 to this Addendum. All costs for installation, maintenance,
operation, and removal regarding the Dish, including any necessary permits or
structural engineer’s review for structural roof support, shall be Tenant’s
responsibility. Any electric power required for the Dish shall be paid for by
Tenant, either as determined by separate submeter, or as reasonably estimated by
a licensed electrical engineer reasonably approved by Landlord. Any roof
penetrations regarding the Dish, if required, shall be made by Landlord’s
roofing contractor. Upon removal of the Dish by Tenant, the Building roof shall
be restored to original condition at the time of installation (such restoration
to be at Tenant’s sole cost). Except as specifically set forth herein, this
license is for Tenant’s specific use and shall not confer any rights unto any
other party for any other installation or use. Landlord reserves the right to
revoke this license in the event of a breach by Tenant of the terms and
conditions contained herein, or in the Lease, upon prior thirty (30) days
written notice, and upon such revocation Tenant shall remove the Dish in
compliance with this grammatical paragraph.

subject to the provisions and conditions of this Lease, including all rent

shall be deemed to have waived its right of first offer with respect to such
space. If Tenant elects to lease such space, Tenant shall accept such space in
its then “as is, where is, with all faults” condition, and Landlord shall have
