4.Tenant's Operating Costs Share of Operating Expenses.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in the Lease, as hereby amended, Tenant shall continue to pay Tenant's Operating Costs Share of Operating Expenses in connection with the Premises in accordance with the terms of the Lease both prior to and during the Second Extended Term.  

5.Improvements.  Except as specifically set forth herein, Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Premises, and Tenant shall continue to accept the Premises in its presently existing, "as-is" condition.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Premises Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time tenant improvement allowance (the "Tenant Improvement Allowance") equal to $200,000.00 for the costs relating to the design and construction of Tenant's improvements which are permanently affixed to the Premises (the “Tenant Improvements”).  The Tenant Improvement Allowance will be disbursed in accordance with Landlord's standard disbursement procedures, including, without limitation, following Landlord's receipt of (i) evidence (i.e., invoices or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Landlord) of payment for the Tenant Improvements, and (ii) fully executed, unconditional lien releases from all contractors, subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers used by Tenant in connection with the Tenant Improvements.  The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 9 of the Original Lease, except that Tenant may use non-union labor in connection with the Tenant Improvements.  In no event shall Landlord be obligated to disburse any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance subsequent to December 31, 2019, nor shall Landlord be obligated to disburse any amount in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements.  No portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, if any, remaining after the construction of the Tenant Improvements shall be available for use by Tenant.

6.Brokers.  Landlord and Tenant hereby warrant to each other that they have had no dealings with any real estate broker or agent in connection with the negotiation of this Fifth Amendment other than Kidder Mathews and CBRE, Inc. (the "Brokers"), and that they know of no other real estate broker or agent who is entitled to a commission in connection with this Fifth Amendment.  Each party agrees to indemnify and defend the other party against and hold the other party harmless from any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, lawsuits, judgments, and costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) with respect to any leasing commission or equivalent compensation alleged to be owing on account of the indemnifying party's dealings with any real estate broker or agent, other than the Brokers.  The terms of this Section 6 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the term of the Lease, as hereby amended.

7.Right of First Offer.  Tenant hereby rescinds its exercise of the right to lease that certain space consisting of approximately 9,530 square feet of space commonly known as Suite 26 in the building located at 250 East Grand Avenue, South San Francisco, California which was exercised pursuant to Tenant’s execution of that certain notice dated November 6, 2017.  In connection therewith, Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant has therefore declined to lease that certain space consisting of approximately 9,530 square feet of space commonly known as Suite 26 in the building located at 250 East Grand Avenue, South San Francisco, California and accordingly pursuant to the terms of Section 7.2 of the Third Amendment, Landlord shall be free to lease such space to anyone to whom Landlord desires on the same terms as was specified in that certain notice

dated November 6, 2017.  Further, Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that the First Offer Right set forth in Section 7 of the Third Amendment shall continue to apply during the Second Extended Term, specifically including with respect to any particular First Offer Space which Tenant has been offered and has rejected (or is deemed to have rejected), it being understood that the same shall not relieve Landlord of its obligation to again offer any First Offer Space to Tenant at any time that the First Offer Space subsequently becomes available.

8.California Accessibility Disclosure.  For purposes of Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges, that the Center, the 256 Building, the 280 Building and Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp).  As required by Section 1938(e) of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby states as follows:  "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law.  Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant.  The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises."  In furtherance of the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:  (a) any CASp inspection requested by Tenant shall be conducted, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, by a CASp approved in advance by Landlord; and (b) Tenant, at its cost, is responsible for making any repairs within the Premises to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards; and, if anything done by or for Tenant in its use or occupancy of the Premises shall require repairs to the applicable building (outside the Premises) to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards, then Tenant shall, at Landlord's option, either perform such repairs at Tenant's sole cost and expense or reimburse Landlord upon demand, as additional rental, for the cost to Landlord of performing such repairs.  

9.No Further Modification.  Except as set forth in this Fifth Amendment, all of the terms and provisions of the Lease shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect.
