agree that this Sublease is subject and subordinate to the terms and conditions
of the Lease, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Except as may be
inconsistent with the terms hereof, all terms, covenants and conditions of the

and perform all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Incorporated Terms

might cause the Lease to be canceled, terminated, forfeited or surrendered, or
which would or might make Sublandlord liable for any damages, claims or
penalties. Similarly, Sublandlord agrees to observe and perform all of the

encumber all or any part of Subtenant's interest in this sublease or in the

cure such failure, or should Sublandlord fail to perform any of its obligations
under the Lease to be performed by Sublandlord which with the giving of notice
or the passage of time, or both, could result in a default under the Lease,

which event Subtenant's remedies shall include the right to perform the
obligations of Sublandlord then in default, and Sublandlord shall promptly
following demand reimburse Subtenant for all amounts expended by Subtenant on
account of such default, together with interest thereon at the rate of the prime
rate published from time to time by The Wall Street Journal plus four percent

Property:     5341 Old Redwood Highway, Petaluma, California

Flood Zones: The Property may or may not be located in a flood zone. Many
lenders require flood insurance for properties located in flood zones, and
government authorities may regulate development and construction in flood zones.
Whether or not located in a flood zone, properties can be subject to flooding
and moisture problems, especially properties on a slope or in low-lying areas or
in a dam inundation zone (California Government Code Section 8589.5). Buyers and
tenants should have their experts confirm whether the Property is in a flood
zone and otherwise investigate and evaluate these matters.

Earthquakes. Earthquakes occur throughout California. The Property may or may
not be situated in an Earthquake Fault Zone and/or a Seismic Hazard Zone
(Sections 2621 et seq. and Sections 2690 et seq. of the California Public
Resources Code, respectively). Property development and construction in such
zones generally are subject to the findings of a geologic report prepared by a
state-registered geologist. Whether or not located in such a zone, all
properties in California are subject to earthquake risks and may be subject to a
variety of state and local earthquake-related requirements, including retrofit
requirements. Among other items, all new and existing water heaters must be
braced, anchored or strapped to resist falling or horizontal displacement, and
in sales transactions, sellers must execute a written certification that the
water heaters are so braced, anchored or strapped (California Health and Safety
Code Section 19211). Buyers and tenants should have their experts confirm
whether the Property is in any earthquake zone and otherwise investigate and
evaluate these matters.

Hazardous Materials and Underground Storage Tanks. Due to prior or current uses
of the Property or in the area or the construction materials used, the Property
may have hazardous or undesirable metals (including lead-based paint), minerals
(including asbestos), chemicals, hydrocarbons, petroleum-related compounds, or
biological or radioactive/emissive items (including electrical and magnetic
fields) in soils, water, building components, above or below-ground
tanks/containers or elsewhere in areas that may or may not be accessible or
noticeable. Such items may leak or otherwise be released. Asbestos has been used
in items such as fireproofing, heating/cooling systems, insulation, spray-on and
tile acoustical materials, floor tiles and coverings, roofing, drywall and
plaster. If the Property was built before 1978 and has a residential unit,
sellers/landlords must disclose all reports, surveys and other information known
to them regarding lead-based paint to buyers and tenants and allow for
inspections (42 United States Code Sections 4851 et seq.). Sellers/landlords are
required to advise buyers/tenants if they have any reasonable cause to believe
that any hazardous substance has come to be located on or beneath the Property
(California Health and Safety Code Section 25359.7), and sellers/landlords must
disclose reports and surveys regarding asbestos to certain persons, including
their employees, contractors, buyers and tenants (California Health and Safety
Code Sections 25915 et seq.); buyers/tenants have similar obligations. Have your
experts investigate and evaluate these matters.

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The Americans With Disabilities Act (42
United States Code Sections 12101 et seq.) and other federal, state and local
requirements may require changes to the Property. Have your experts investigate
and evaluate these matters.

Taxes. Sales, leases and other real estate transactions can have federal, state
and local tax consequences. In sales transactions, Internal Revenue Code Section
1446 requires buyers to withhold and pay to the IRS 10% of the gross sales price
within 10 days of the date of a sale unless the buyers can establish that the
sellers are not foreigners, generally by having the sellers sign a Non-Foreign
Seller Affidavit. Depending on the structure of the transaction, the tax
withholding liability can exceed the net cash proceeds to be paid to the sellers
at closing. California imposes an additional withholding requirement equal to 3
1/3% of the gross sales price not only on foreign sellers but also out-of-state
sellers and sellers leaving the state if the sales price exceeds $100,000.
Withholding generally is required if the last known address of a seller is
outside California, if the proceeds are disbursed outside of California or if a
financial intermediary is used. Have your experts investigate and evaluate these
matters.

Fires. California Public Resources Codes Sections 4125 et seq. require sellers
of real property located within state responsibility areas to advise buyers that
the property is located within such a wildland zone, that the state does not
have the responsibility to provide fire protection services to any structure
within such a zone and that such zones may contain substantial forest/wildland
fire risks. Government Code Sections 51178 et seq. require sellers of real
property located within certain fire hazard zones to disclose that the property
is located in such a zone. Sellers must disclose that a property located in a
wildland or fire hazard zone is subject to the fire prevention requirements of
Public Resources Code Section 4291 and Government Code Section 51182,
respectively. Sellers must make such disclosures if either the sellers have
actual knowledge that a property is in such a zone or a map showing the property
to be in such a zone has been provided to the county assessor. Properties,
whether or not located in such a zone, are subject to fire/life safety risks and
may be subject to state and local fire/life safety-related requirements,
including retrofit requirements. Have your experts investigate and evaluate
these matters.

Broker Representation. CB Richard Ellis, Inc. is a national brokerage firm
representing a variety of clients. Depending on the circumstances, CB Richard
Ellis, Inc. may represent both the seller/landlord and the buyer/tenant in a
transaction, or you may be interested in a property that may be of interest to
other CB Richard Ellis, Inc. clients. If CB Richard Ellis, Inc. represents more
than one party with respect to a property, CB Richard Ellis, Inc. will not
disclose the confidential information of one principal to the other.

Seller/Landlord Disclosure, Delivery of Reports, Pest Control Reports and
Compliance with Laws. Sellers/landlords are hereby requested to disclose
directly to buyers/tenants all information known to sellers/landlords regarding
the Property, including but not limited to, hazardous materials, zoning,
construction, design, engineering, soils, title, survey, fire/life safety, and
other matters, and to provide buyers/tenants with copies of all reports in the
possession of or accessible to sellers/landlords regarding the Property.
Sellers/landlords and buyers/tenants must comply with all applicable federal,
state and local laws, regulations, codes, ordinances and administrative orders,
including, but not limited to, the 1964 Civil Rights Act and all amendments
thereto, the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act, the Comprehensive
Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, and The Americans With
Disabilities Act. If a pest control report is a condition of the purchase
contract, buyers are entitled to receive a copy of the report and any
certification and notice of work completed.

Property Inspections and Evaluations. Buyers/tenants should have the Property
thoroughly inspected and all parties should have the transaction thoroughly
evaluated by the experts of their choice. Ask your experts what investigations
and evaluations may be appropriate as well as the risks of not performing any
such investigations or evaluations. Information regarding the Property supplied
by the real estate brokers has been received from third party sources and has
not been independently verified by the brokers. Have your experts verify all
information regarding the Property, including any linear or area measurements
and the availability of all utilities. All work should be inspected and
evaluated by your experts, as they deem appropriate. Any projections or
estimates are for example only, are based on assumptions that may not occur and
do not represent the current or future performance of the property. Real estate
brokers are not experts concerning nor can they determine if any expert is
qualified to provide advice on legal, tax, design, ADA, engineering,
construction, soils, title, survey, fire/life safety, insurance, hazardous
materials, or other such matters. Such areas require special education and,
generally, special licenses not possessed by real estate brokers. Consult with
the experts of your choice regarding these matters.
