 ARTICLE 1 
 LEASE OF PREMISES AND LEASE TERM 
 1.1 Premises. In consideration of the covenants and
agreements set forth in this Lease and other good and valuable consideration, Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant and Tenant leases the Premises from Landlord, upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Lease. This
Lease and Tenant's rights to the Premises also shall be subject to the terms and provisions of the Master Lease. Landlord shall cause Stevenson Systems to measure the Premises based upon modified BOMA Standards and such measurement shall be the
determination of the rentable square footage and usable square footage for purposes of this Lease. The square footage so determined by Stevenson Systems will be specified in the Commencement Date Memorandum. If, upon completion of the space plans
for the Premises, Landlord's architect or space planner determines that the rentable square footage of the Premises differs from that set forth in the Basic Terms, then Landlord shall notify Tenant and the Basic Rent shall be promptly adjusted in
proportion to the change in square footage. 
 1.2 Term, Delivery and Commencement. 
 1.2.1 Commencement and Expiration of Term. The Term of this Lease is the period stated in the Basic Terms. The Term commences on the
Commencement Date and expires on the last day of the last calendar month of the Term. 
 1.2.2 Tender of Possession. Landlord
will use commercially reasonable efforts to tender possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Delivery Date, subject to Force Majeure and Tenant Delay. If Landlord is unable to tender possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the
Delivery Date for any reason, this Lease remains in full force and effect and Landlord is not liable to Tenant for any resulting loss or damage; provided, however, that unless the delay is caused by Tenant Delay, Landlord will appropriately adjust
the Commencement Date. 
 1.2.3 Commencement Date Memorandum. Promptly after the Commencement Date, Landlord will deliver to
Tenant the Commencement Date Memorandum with all blanks completed. Tenant will, within ten (10) days after receiving it, execute and deliver to Landlord the Commencement Date Memorandum. Landlord's failure to deliver to Tenant and/or Tenant's
failure to execute and deliver to Landlord the Commencement Date Memorandum does not affect any right or obligation of either party under this Lease. If Tenant does not timely execute and deliver to Landlord the Commencement Date Memorandum,
Landlord and any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer may conclusively rely on the information contained in the unexecuted Commencement Date Memorandum which Landlord delivered to Tenant. 
 1.2.4 Early Occupancy. If Tenant so requests, Landlord will allow Tenant limited access to the Premises prior to Substantial Completion to
begin installing equipment, fixtures, and cabling and/or to properly coordinate such work with the construction of the Tenant's Improvements. Any such access will be subject to Landlord's prior consent in each instance, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld but may be conditioned on Tenant's work not interfering with the construction of Tenant's Improvements. Any such use of the Premises is also subject to, and Tenant must comply with and observe, all applicable Laws and all other
terms and conditions of this Lease, other than payment of Rent. In no event may Tenant conduct business in the Premises during such early access period. 
 1.2.5 Extension of Term. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and provided that no Event of Default exists at the time of exercise and that Landlord does not desire to use the Premises for its own
operations, Tenant may extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) period of eighteen (18) months. Tenant must exercise such right of extension by delivering written notice of Tenant's decision to exercise at least three (3), but not more
than six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Term. Such extension of the Term will be on the same terms, covenants and conditions as in this Lease, other than Basic Rent. Basic Rent for the extension period will be the fair market rental
rate(s) for the extension period (which may include escalations during such period), determined in relation to comparable (in quality, location and size) space located in the Building and/or in comparable buildings in the John Wayne Airport area of
Irvine, California ("Fair Market Basic Rent"). Landlord will determine such Fair Market Basic Rent and deliver Landlord's determination to Tenant within one month after Tenant delivers its notice of exercise. In no event will the Fair Market
Basic Rent for an extension of the Term be less than the Basic Rent (exclusive of temporary abatements) payable by Tenant for the Lease Year immediately prior to commencement of the applicable extension period. These extension rights are personal to
Tenant and may not be assigned or transferred in any manner except in connection with an approved Transfer under Article 13. 
 1.2.6
Selection of Fair Market Basic Rent. If Tenant disputes Landlord's determination of Fair Market Basic Rent for an extension of the Term, Tenant will deliver notice of such dispute, together with Tenant's proposed Fair Market Basic Rent,
to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days of Tenant's receipt of Landlord's determination. The parties will then attempt in good faith to agree upon the Fair Market Basic Rent. If the parties fail to agree within 25 days, then either party
shall be entitled to give notice to the other electing to have the Fair Market Basic Rent selected by an appraiser as provided in this section. Upon delivery and receipt of such notice, the parties will within ten (10) days thereafter mutually
appoint an appraiser who will select (in the manner set forth below) the Fair Market Basic Rent (the "Deciding Appraiser"). The Deciding Appraiser must have at least five years of full-time commercial appraisal experience with projects comparable to
the Property and be a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers or a similar appraisal association. The Deciding Appraiser must not have any material financial or business interest in common with either of the parties. If Landlord
and Tenant are not able to agree upon a Deciding Appraiser within such ten (10) days, each party will within five (5) days thereafter separately select an appraiser meeting the criteria set forth above, which two appraisers will, within
seven (7) days of their selection, mutually appoint a third appraiser meeting the criteria set forth above (and who also does not have 

  


					
	2040 Main Street	 	3	 	9/29/04
	Office Lease Agreement	 		 	









 
any material financial or business interest in common with either of the two selecting appraisers) to be the Deciding Appraiser. Within seven (7) days
of the appointment (by either method) of the Deciding Appraiser, Landlord and Tenant will submit to the Deciding Appraiser their respective determinations of Fair Market Basic Rent and any related information. Within twenty-one (21) days of
such appointment of the Deciding Appraiser, the Deciding Appraiser will review each party's submittal (and such other information as the Deciding Appraiser deems necessary) and will select, in total and without modification, the submittal presented
by either Landlord or Tenant as the Fair Market Basic Rent; provided, however, that in no event will Fair Market Basic Rent for an extension of the Term be less than the Basic Rent (exclusive of temporary abatements) payable by Tenant immediately
prior to commencement of the applicable extension period. Subject to the previous sentence, if the Deciding Appraiser timely receives one party's submittal, but not both, the Deciding Appraiser must designate the submitted proposal as the Fair
Market Basic Rent for the applicable extension of the Term. Any determination of Fair Market Basic Rent made by the Deciding Appraiser in violation of the provisions of this section shall be beyond the scope of authority of the Deciding Appraiser
and shall be null and void. If the determination of Fair Market Basic Rent is made by a Deciding Appraiser, Landlord and Tenant will each pay, directly to the Deciding Appraiser, one-half ( 1/2) of all fees, costs and expenses of the Deciding Appraiser. Landlord and Tenant will each separately pay all costs, fees and expenses of their respective
additional appraiser (if any) used to determine the Deciding Appraiser. 
 1.2.7 First Right to Negotiate Lease. If, during the term of this Lease and any extension thereof, any additional space on the 8th floor of the Building should become available that Landlord does not require for its own business, then Landlord shall notify Tenant of the availability of such space. For a period of five days from
the date of such notice, Tenant shall have the first right to negotiate with Landlord for the sublease of such additional space. If no letter of intent for the sublease of such additional space is signed by Tenant and Landlord during such five-day
period, then Landlord shall be entitled to negotiate subleases with other parties with respect to such space. 
 ARTICLE 2 

RENTAL AND OTHER PAYMENTS 
 2.1
Basic Rent. Tenant will pay Basic Rent in monthly installments to Landlord, in advance, without offset or deduction., commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing on the first day of each and every calendar month after the
Commencement Date during the Term. Tenant will make all Basic Rent payments to the Rent Payment Address at the address specified in the Basic Terms or at such other place or in such other manner as Landlord may from time to time designate in
writing. Tenant will make all Basic Rent payments without Landlord's previous demand, invoice or notice for payment. Landlord and Tenant will prorate, on a per diem basis, Basic Rent for any partial month within the Term. An amount equal to one full
month of Basic Rent at the initial rate specified in the Basic Terms will be paid to Landlord by Tenant upon execution of this Lease by Tenant, to be applied against the first installment of Basic Rent by Landlord when due. 
 2.2 Additional Rent. Article 3 of this Lease requires Tenant to pay certain Additional Rent pursuant to estimates Landlord delivers to
Tenant. Tenant will make all payments of estimated Additional Rent in accordance with Sections 3.3 and 3.4 without deduction or offset and without Landlord's previous demand, invoice or notice for payment. Tenant will pay all other Additional
Rent described in this Lease that is not estimated under Sections 3.3 and 3.4 within ten (10) days after receiving Landlord's invoice for such Additional Rent. Tenant will make all Additional Rent payments to the same location and, except
as described in the previous sentence, in the same manner as Tenant's Basic Rent payments. 
 2.3 Delinquent Rental Payments.
If Tenant does not pay any installment of Basic Rent or any Additional Rent within three (3) days after the date the payment is due, Tenant will pay Landlord a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of the delinquent
payment. Further, if Tenant does not pay any installment of Basic Rent or any Additional Rent within thirty (30) days after the date the payment is due, Tenant will pay Landlord interest on the delinquent payment calculated at the Maximum Rate
from the date when the payment is due through the date the payment is made. The parties agree that such amounts represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the damages Landlord will incur by reason of such late payment. The parties agree that the
charge specified as the late payment charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of such late payment and acceptance of such late charge does not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default or limit any
other remedy of Landlord. The late charge shall be deemed Rent and Landlord's right to such compensation for the delinquency is in addition to all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity. 
 2.4 Independent Obligations. Notwithstanding any contrary term or provision of this Lease, Tenant's covenant and obligation to pay Rent is
independent of any of Landlord's covenants, obligations, warranties or representations in this Lease. Tenant will pay Rent without any right of offset or deduction. 
 ARTICLE 3 
 PROPERTY TAXES AND OPERATING EXPENSES 
 3.1 Payment of Excess Expenses. Tenant will pay, as Additional Rent, and in the manner this Article 3 describes, Tenant's Share of
Excess Expenses due and payable during any calendar year of the Term. Landlord will prorate Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses due and payable during the calendar year in which the Lease commences or terminates as of the Commencement Date or
termination date, as applicable, on a per diem basis based on the number of days of the Term within such calendar year. 
 3.2
Estimation of Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses. Landlord will cause Master Lessor to deliver to Tenant a written estimate of the following for each calendar year of the Term: (a) Property Taxes, (b) Operating Expenses,
(c) Excess Expenses, (d) Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses and (e) the annual and monthly Additional Rent attributable to Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses. 
  


					
	2040 Main Street	 	4	 	9/29/04
	Office Lease Agreement	 		 	









 3.3 Payment of Estimated Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses. Tenant will pay the amount
Master Lessor estimates as Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses under Section 3.2 for each calendar year of the Term in equal monthly installments, in advance, commencing on the Commencement Date and thereafter on the first day of each and every
calendar month during the Term. If Master Lessor has not delivered the estimates to Tenant by the first day of January of the applicable calendar year, Tenant will continue paying Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses based on Master Lessor’s
estimates for the previous calendar year. When Tenant receives Master Lessor’s estimates for the current calendar year, Tenant will pay the estimated amount for such calendar year (less amounts Tenant paid to Landlord in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence) in equal monthly installments over the balance of such calendar year, with the number of installments being equal to the number of full calendar months remaining in such calendar year. 
 3.4 Re-Estimation of Excess Expenses. Master Lessor may re-estimate Excess Expenses from time to time during the Term. In such event,
Master Lessor will re-estimate the monthly Additional Rent attributable to Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses to an amount sufficient for Tenant to pay the re-estimated monthly amount over the balance of the calendar year. Landlord will cause Master
Lessor to notify Tenant of the re-estimate and Tenant will pay the re-estimated amount in the manner provided in the last sentence of Section 3.3. 
 3.5 Confirmation of Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses. After the end of each calendar year within the Term, Master Lessor will determine the actual amount of Excess Expenses and Tenant's Share of Excess
Expenses for the expired calendar year and Landlord will cause Master Lessor to deliver to Tenant a written statement of such amounts. If Tenant paid less than the amount of Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses specified in the statement, Tenant will
pay the difference to Landlord as Additional Rent in the manner described in Section 2.2. If Tenant paid more than the amount of Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses specified in the statement, Landlord will, at Landlord's option, either
(a) refund the excess amount to Tenant, or (b) credit the excess amount against Tenant's next due monthly installment or installments of estimated Additional Rent. If Master Lessor is delayed in delivering such statement to Tenant, such
delay does not constitute Landlord's waiver of Landlord's rights under this section. 
 3.6 Tenant's Inspection and Audit
Rights. If Tenant disputes Master Lessor’s determination of the actual amount of Excess Expenses or Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses for any calendar year, and provided that (a) no Event of Default exists under this Lease, and
(b) Tenant delivers to Landlord written notice of the dispute within thirty (30) days after Master Lessor’s delivery of the statement of such amount under Section 3.5, then Tenant (but not any subtenant or assignee) may within
twelve (12) months after the end of such calendar year, at its sole cost and expense, upon prior written notice and during regular Business Hours at a time and place reasonably acceptable to Landlord in the City (which may be the location where
Master Lessor or Property Manager maintains the applicable records), cause a certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Master Lessor who shall not be compensated on a contingent fee basis or a qualified employee of Tenant to audit Master
Lessor's records relating to the disputed amounts. Tenant's objection to Master Lessor’s determination of Excess Expenses or Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses is deemed withdrawn unless Tenant completes and delivers the audit report to Landlord
within sixty (60) days after the date Tenant delivers its dispute notice to Landlord under this section. If Tenant's audit report shows that the amount Landlord charged Tenant for Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses was greater than the amount
this Article 3 obligates Tenant to pay, unless Landlord reasonably contests the audit, Landlord will refund the excess amount to Tenant, together with interest on the excess amount at the Maximum Rate (computed from the date Tenant delivers its
dispute notice to Landlord) within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives a copy of the audit report. If the audit report shows that the amount Landlord charged Tenant for Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses was less than the amount this
Article 3 obligates Tenant to pay, Tenant will pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the difference between the amount Tenant paid and the amount determined in the audit, together with interest on the difference at the Maximum Rate (computed
from the date Tenant delivers its dispute notice to Landlord). Pending resolution of any audit under this section, Tenant will continue to pay to Landlord the estimated amounts of Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses in accordance with
Sections 3.3 and 3.4. Tenant must keep all information it obtains in any audit strictly confidential and may only use such information for the limited purpose this section describes and for Tenant's own account. 
 3.7 Personal Property Taxes. Tenant will pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes charged against Tenant's trade fixtures and other personal
property. Tenant will use all reasonable efforts to have such trade fixtures and other personal property taxed separately from the Property. If any of Tenant's trade fixtures and other personal property are taxed with the Property, Tenant will pay
the taxes attributable to Tenant's trade fixtures and other personal property to Landlord as Additional Rent. 
 3.8 Landlord's Right
to Contest Property Taxes. Master Lessor may, but is not obligated to, contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Property Taxes. Master Lessor’s contest will be at Master Lessor’s sole cost and expense except that
if Property Taxes are reduced (or if a proposed increase is avoided or reduced) because of Master Lessor’s contest, Master Lessor may include in its computation of Property Taxes (a) all costs and expenses of any tax consultant retained by
Master Lessor in connection with contesting the Property Taxes and (b) all other costs and expenses incurred by Master Lessor in connection with contesting the Property Taxes, including without limitation reasonable attorney's fees, up to the
amount of any Property Tax reduction Master Lessor realized from the contest or any Property Tax increase avoided or reduced in connection with the contest, as the case may be. Tenant may not contest Property Taxes.

 ARTICLE 10

 INSURANCE 
 10.1
Tenant's Insurance. Tenant will at all times during the Term and during any early occupancy period, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, maintain the insurance this Section 10.1 requires. 
 10.1.1 Liability Insurance. Tenant must maintain commercial general liability insurance (providing coverage at least as broad as the
current ISO form) with respect to the Premises and Tenant's activities in the Premises and upon and about the Property and/or Project, on an "occurrence" basis, with minimum limits of two million dollars ($2,000,000) each occurrence and five million
dollars ($5,000,000) general aggregate. Such insurance must include specific coverage provisions or endorsements (a) for broad form contractual liability insurance insuring Tenant's obligations under this Lease; (b) naming Master Lessor,

contribute with any insurance Landlord maintains; and (f) providing that the insurer has a duty to defend all insureds under the policy (including additional insureds), and that defense costs are paid in addition to, and do not deplete, the
policy limits. If Tenant provides such liability insurance under a blanket policy, the insurance must be made specifically applicable to the Premises and this Lease on a "per location" basis. 
 10.1.2 Other Insurance. If insurance obligations generally required of tenants in similar space in similar office buildings in the area in
which the Premises is located increase or otherwise change, Master Lessor, Landlord or Lienholder may similarly change Tenant's insurance obligations under this Lease.

fixtures, other personal property and all other property in Tenant's care, custody or control, are located at the Project at Tenant's sole risk, and neither Master Lessor or Landlord is liable for any Casualty to such property or for any other
damage, theft, misappropriation or loss of such property, excepting only any damage to Tenant's trade fixtures or other personal property which is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Tenant is solely responsible for
providing such insurance as Tenant may desire for the protection of Tenant, its employees and invitees against any injury, loss, or damage to persons or property occurring in the Premises or at the Project, including, without limitation, any loss of
business or profits from any Casualty or other occurrence at the Project. 
 10.2 Landlord's Insurance. Landlord will at all
times during the Term maintain the insurance this Section 10.2 requires. 
 10.2.1 Property Insurance. Landlord will cause
Master Lessor to maintain insurance on the Project providing coverage comparable to that provided by a standard ISO special causes of loss form property insurance policy in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Building (less
foundation, grading and excavation costs). Master Lessor may, at its option, obtain such additional coverages or endorsements as Master Lessor deems appropriate or necessary, including, without limitation, insurance covering foundation, grading,
excavation and debris removal costs; business income and rent loss insurance, boiler and machinery insurance, ordinance or laws coverage, earthquake insurance, flood insurance, terrorism and other coverages. Master Lessor may maintain such insurance
in whole or in part under blanket policies. Such insurance will not cover or be applicable to any trade fixtures or other personal property owned by or in the care, custody or control of Tenant.

	Office Lease Agreement	 		 	









 10.2.2 Liability Insurance. Landlord will cause Master Lessor to maintain commercial
general liability insurance for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage occurring at the Property in such amounts as Master Lessor deems necessary or appropriate. Such liability insurance will protect only Master Lessor and, at Master
Lessor’s option, Master Lessor 's lender and some or all of the Landlord Parties, and does not protect Tenant or replace or supplement the liability insurance this Lease obligates Tenant to carry. 
 10.3 Waivers and Releases of Claims and Subrogation. 
 10.3.1 Tenant's Waiver and Release. To the fullest extent allowable under the Laws, and except for any damage to Tenant's trade fixtures or other personal property which is caused by the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of Master Lessor or Landlord, Tenant, on behalf of Tenant and its insurers, waives, releases and discharges the Landlord Parties from all Claims arising out of damage to or destruction of the Premises, the Property, the Project
or Tenant's trade fixtures or other personal property located at the Project, and any loss of use or business interruption, caused by any Casualty, regardless whether any such Claim results from the negligence or fault of any Landlord Party, and
Tenant will look only to Tenant's insurance coverage (regardless whether Tenant maintains any such coverage) in the event of any such Claim. Any property insurance which Tenant maintains must permit or include a waiver of subrogation in favor of
Landlord. 
 10.3.2 Landlord's Waiver and Release. To the fullest extent allowable under the Laws, and except for any Landlord
Unreleased Casualty Claims, Landlord, on behalf of Landlord and its insurers, waives, releases and discharges Tenant from all Claims for damage to or destruction of the Premises, or Landlord's trade fixtures or other personal property located at the
Premises, and any loss of use or business interruption, caused by an Casualty, regardless whether any such Claim results from the negligence or fault of Tenant, and Landlord will look only to Landlord's insurance coverage (regardless whether
Landlord maintains any such coverage) in the event of any such Claim. Landlord's policy or policies of property insurance will permit or include a waiver of subrogation in favor of Tenant. 
 10.4 Tenant's Failure to Insure. If Tenant fails to provide Landlord with evidence of liability insurance as required under
Section 10.1, after five (5) days written notice from Landlord, Landlord may assume that Tenant is not maintaining the insurance Section 10.1 requires Tenant to maintain and Landlord may, but is not obligated to, obtain such insurance
for Master Lessor’s and Landlord's benefit, without demand upon Tenant or any notice or cure right for Tenant (under Article 14 or otherwise) and without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligation contained in this Lease. Tenant will
pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, all costs and expenses Landlord reasonably incurs in obtaining such insurance. Landlord's exercise of any rights under this Section does not relieve Tenant from any default under this Lease. 
 10.5 No Limitation. Landlord's establishment of minimum liability insurance requirements for Tenant in this Lease is not a representation
by Landlord that such limits are sufficient and does not limit Tenant's liability under this Lease in any manner. 
 10.6 Tenant's
Indemnification. Except for the Claims waived by Landlord in Section 10.3.2, in addition to Tenant's other indemnification obligations in this Lease, Tenant releases and will Indemnify the Landlord Parties from and against all Claims
arising from (a) any breach or default by Tenant in the performance of any of Tenant's covenants or agreements in this Lease, (b) any act, omission, negligence or misconduct of Tenant, (c) any accident, injury, occurrence or damage
in, about or to the Premises and (d) to the extent caused in whole or in part by Tenant, any accident, injury, occurrence or damage in, about or to the Project. 
 ARTICLE 11 
 DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION 
 11.1 Tenantable Within 270 Days. Except as provided in Section 11.3, if any Casualty renders the whole or any material part of the
Premises untenantable and Master Lessor determines (in its reasonable discretion) that Master Lessor can make the Premises tenantable within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of the Casualty, then Landlord will notify Tenant that
Master Lessor will repair and restore the Building and the Premises to as near their condition prior to the Casualty as is reasonably possible within the two hundred seventy (270) day period (subject to Force Majeure). Master Lessor will
provide the notice within sixty (60) days after the date of the Casualty. 
 11.2 Not Tenantable Within 270 Days. If any
Casualty renders the whole or any material part of the Premises untenantable and Master Lessor determines (in its reasonable discretion) that Master Lessor cannot make the Premises tenantable within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date
of the casualty, then Landlord will so notify Tenant within sixty (60) days after the date of the Casualty and may, in such notice, terminate this Lease effective on the date sixty (60) days after the date of Landlord's notice. If Landlord
does not terminate this Lease as provided in this section and provided the Casualty was not caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or intentional misconduct of Tenant, Tenant may terminate this Lease by notifying Landlord within sixty
(60) days after the date of Landlord's notice, which termination will be effective thirty (30) days after the date of Tenant's notice. 
 11.3 Building Substantially Damaged. If the Building is damaged or destroyed by any Casualty (regardless whether the Premises is affected) and either (a) less than fifteen (15) months remain in the Term, or
(b) the damage reduces the value of the improvements on the Project by more than fifty percent (50%) (as Master Lessor reasonably determines value before and after the Casualty), then regardless whether Master Lessor determines (in its
reasonable discretion) that Master Lessor can make the Building tenantable within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of the Casualty, Landlord may, at Landlord's option, by notifying Tenant within sixty (60) days after the
Casualty, terminate this Lease effective sixty (60) days after the date of Landlord's termination notice. 
  


					
	2040 Main Street	 	11	 	9/29/04
	Office Lease Agreement	 		 	









 11.4 Insufficient Proceeds. Notwithstanding any contrary language in this Article 11,
if Master Lessor does not receive sufficient insurance proceeds (excluding the amount of any policy deductible) to repair all damage to the Premises or the improvements on the Project caused by any Casualty, or if Master Lessor’s lender does
not allow Master Lessor to use sufficient proceeds to repair all such damage, then Landlord may, at Landlord's option, by notifying Tenant within sixty (60) days after the Casualty, terminate this Lease effective on the date thirty
(30) days after Landlord's notice. 
 11.5 Landlord's Repair; Rent Abatement. If this Lease is not terminated under
Sections 11.1 through 11.4 following any Casualty, then Landlord will cause Master Lessor to repair and restore the Premises and the Building to as near their condition prior to the Casualty as is reasonably possible with all commercially
reasonable diligence and speed (subject to Force Majeure) and Basic Rent and Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses for the period during which the Premises are untenantable will abate pro rata (based upon the rentable area of the untenantable portion of
the Premises as compared with the rentable area of the entire Premises). In no event is Landlord obligated to repair or restore any Alterations or Tenant's Improvements that are not covered by Master Lessor’s insurance, any special equipment or
improvements installed by Tenant, any personal property, or any other property of Tenant. Landlord will, if necessary, equitably adjust Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses Percentage to account for any reduction in the rentable area of the Premises or
Building resulting from a Casualty. 
 11.6 Rent Apportionment Upon Termination. If either Landlord or Tenant terminates this
Lease under this Article 11, Landlord will apportion Basic Rent and Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses on a per diem basis and Tenant will pay the Basic Rent and Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses to the date of the Casualty if the event renders
the Premises completely untenantable or if the event does not render the Premises completely untenantable, the effective date of such termination (provided that if a portion of the Premises is rendered untenantable, but the remaining portion is
tenantable, then, except as provided in Section 11.5, Tenant's obligation to pay Basic Rent and Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses abates pro rata (based upon the rentable area of the untenantable portion of the Premises divided by the rentable
area of the entire Premises) from the date of the Casualty and Tenant will pay the unabated portion of the Rent to the date of such termination on the portion terminated). 
 ARTICLE 12 
 EMINENT DOMAIN 
 12.1 Termination of Lease. If the Condemning Authority desires to effect a Taking of all or any material part of the Property, Landlord
will notify Tenant and Landlord and Tenant will reasonably determine whether the taking will render the Premises unsuitable for Tenant's intended purposes. If Landlord and Tenant conclude that the Taking will render the Premises unsuitable for
Tenant's intended purposes, Landlord and Tenant will document such determination and this Lease will terminate as of the date the Condemning Authority takes possession of the portion of the Property taken. Tenant will pay Rent to the date of
termination. If a Condemning Authority takes all or any material part of the improvements on the Project or if a Taking reduces the value of the Property by fifty percent (50%) or more (as reasonably determined by Landlord), regardless of
whether the Premises is affected, then Landlord, at Landlord's option, by notifying Tenant prior to the date the Condemning Authority takes possession of the portion of the Project taken, may terminate this Lease effective on the date the Condemning
Authority takes possession of the portion of the Project taken. 
 12.2 Landlord's Repair Obligations. If this Lease does not
terminate with respect to the entire Premises under Section 12.1 and the Taking includes a portion of the Premises, this Lease automatically terminates as to the portion of the Premises taken as of the date the Condemning Authority takes
possession of the portion taken and Landlord will cause Master Lessor, at its sole cost and expense, to restore the remaining portion of the Premises to a complete architectural unit with all commercially reasonable diligence and speed and will
reduce the Basic Rent for the period after the date the Condemning Authority takes possession of the portion of the Premises taken to a sum equal to the product of the Basic Rent provided for in this Lease multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the rentable area of the Premises after the Taking and after Master Lessor restores the Premises to a complete architectural unit, and the denominator of which is the rentable area of the Premises prior to the Taking. Landlord will also
equitably adjust Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses Percentage for the same period to account for the reduction in the rentable area of the Premises or the Building resulting from the Taking. Tenant's obligation to pay Basic Rent and Tenant's Share
of Excess Expenses will abate on a proportionate basis with respect to that portion of the Premises remaining after the Taking that Tenant is unable to use during Landlord's restoration for the period of time that Tenant is unable to use such
portion of the Premises. 
 12.3 Tenant's Participation. Master Lessor is entitled to receive and keep all damages, awards or
payments resulting from or paid on account of a Taking. Accordingly, Tenant waives and assigns to Master Lessor any interest of Tenant in any such damages, awards or payments. Tenant may prove in any condemnation proceedings and may receive any
separate award for damages to or condemnation of Tenant's movable trade fixtures and equipment and for moving expenses; provided however, that Tenant has no right to receive any award for its interest in this Lease or for loss of leasehold.

 12.4 Exclusive Taking Remedy. The provisions of this Article 12 are Tenant's sole and exclusive rights and remedies in
the event of a Taking. To the extent permitted by the Laws, Tenant waives the benefits of any Law, including, but not limited to, California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 or any successor statutes or laws, that provides Tenant any
abatement or termination rights or any right to receive any payment or award (by virtue of a Taking) not specifically described in this Article 12.

 ARTICLE 13 
 TRANSFERS 
 13.1 Restriction on Transfers. Tenant will not cause or suffer a Transfer
without obtaining Landlord's prior written consent. Landlord may grant or withhold consent in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion. Tenant's request for consent to a Transfer must describe in detail the parties, terms, portion of the Premises,
and other circumstances involved in the proposed Transfer. Landlord will notify Tenant of Landlord's election to consent or withhold consent within thirty (30) days of Landlord's receipt of such a written request for consent to the Transfer
from Tenant. Tenant will provide Landlord with any additional information Landlord reasonably requests regarding the proposed Transfer or the proposed transferee. If Landlord consents to the Transfer, Landlord may impose on Tenant or the transferee
such conditions as Landlord, in its sole, absolute and arbitrary discretion, deems appropriate. No Transfer releases Tenant from any liability or obligation under this Lease and Tenant remains liable to Landlord after such a Transfer as a principal
and not as a surety. If Landlord consents to any Transfer, Tenant will pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, seventy-five percent (75%) of any amount Tenant receives on account of the Transfer in excess of the amounts this Lease otherwise
requires Tenant to pay. In no event may Tenant cause or permit a Transfer to another tenant of the Building. Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Lease is null and void and constitutes an Event of Default under this Lease. 
 13.2 Recapture Right. In lieu of giving or withholding consent pursuant to Section 13.1, Landlord may, within the thirty (30) day
period provided in Section 13.1, elect by written notice to Tenant to terminate this Lease or, if a proposed Transfer affects only a portion of the Premises, to terminate this Lease as respects that portion. If Landlord elects to terminate the
Lease as set forth above, Tenant may negate Landlord's election by delivering written notice withdrawing its request for Landlord's consent to the Transfer within five (5) days of Tenant's receipt of Landlord's notice. If Landlord elects to
terminate this Lease as set forth above, Landlord will release Tenant from liability under this Lease for future Basic Rent and Additional Rent with respect to the Premises (or the portion of the Premises subject to the proposed Transfer) accruing
after the effective date of termination. Landlord and Tenant agree and acknowledge that Landlord's right to recapture as set forth above is intended to permit Landlord to maintain control over the leasing or subleasing of space in the Property, to
protect its interest in the Property and the interest of any lenders and to prevent such interest from being impaired. Tenant understands the nature of this right and has approved the recapture provisions in consideration for (a) Tenant's right
to negate Landlord's recapture election by withdrawing its request for a Transfer and (b) Landlord's agreement to release Tenant from liability for Rent accruing after the effective date of termination with respect to the recaptured portion of
the Premises pursuant to the provisions of this Section. 
 13.3 No Merger. No merger shall result from Tenant's Transfer of
the Premises under this Article, Tenant's surrender of this Lease or the termination of this Lease in any other manner. In any such event, Landlord may terminate any or all subtenancies or succeed to the interest of Tenant as sub-landlord
thereunder. 
 13.4 Costs. Tenant will pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, all costs and expenses Landlord incurs in
connection with any Transfer, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, regardless whether Landlord consents to the Transfer. 
 13.5 Transfers to Affiliates. Provided that no Event of Default exists under this Lease, Tenant may, without Landlord's consent, assign or sublet all or a portion of this Lease or the Premises to an
Affiliate if (a) Tenant notifies Landlord at least 30 days prior to such Transfer; (b) Tenant delivers to Landlord, at the time of Tenant's notice, current financial statements of Tenant and the proposed transferee that are reasonably
acceptable to Landlord; and (c) Tenant delivers to Landlord, not later than the effective date of the Transfer, a written agreement reasonably acceptable to Landlord under which the transferee assumes and agrees to perform Tenant's obligations
under this Lease and to observe all terms and conditions of this Lease. Tenant will also promptly provide Landlord with copies of any documents reasonably requested by Landlord to document the status and relationship between Tenant and its
Affiliate. A Transfer to an Affiliate does not release Tenant from any liability or obligation under this Lease. Landlord's rights under Section 13.1 to recapture or share in any profit Tenant receives from a Transfer do not apply to any
Transfer this Section 13.6 permits. "Affiliate" means any person or entity that, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant. For purposes of this definition, "control" means possessing the power to
direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the entity by the ownership of a majority of the voting securities of the entity. 
 ARTICLE 14 
 DEFAULTS; REMEDIES 
 14.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following constitutes an "Event of Default" by Tenant under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant agree that the notices required by this Section 14.1
are intended to satisfy any and all notice requirements imposed by the Laws and are not in addition to any such requirements. 
 14.1.1
Failure to Pay Rent. Tenant fails to pay Basic Rent, any monthly installment of Tenant's Share of Excess Expenses or any other Additional Rent amount as and when due and such failure continues for three (3) days after Landlord
notifies Tenant. 
 14.1.2 Failure to Perform. Tenant materially breaches or fails to perform any of Tenant's nonmonetary
obligations under this Lease and the breach or failure continues for a period of fifteen (15) days after Landlord notifies Tenant of Tenant's breach or failure; provided that if Tenant cannot cure its breach or failure within a fifteen
(15) day period, Tenant's breach or failure is not an Event of Default if Tenant commences to cure its breach or failure within the fifteen (15) day period and thereafter diligently pursues the cure and effects the cure within a period of
time that does not exceed an additional fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the initial fifteen (15) day period. Notwithstanding any contrary language contained in this Section 14.1.2, Tenant is not entitled to any notice or
cure period before an uncurable breach or failure of this Lease becomes an Event of Default. 
  


					
	2040 Main Street	 	13	 	9/29/04
	Office Lease Agreement	 		 	









 14.1.3 Misrepresentation. The existence of any material misrepresentation or omission in
any financial statements, correspondence or other information provided to Landlord by or on behalf of Tenant or any Guarantor in connection with (a) Tenant's negotiation or execution of this Lease; (b) Landlord's evaluation of Tenant as a
prospective tenant at the Property; (c) any proposed or attempted Transfer; or (d) any consent or approval Tenant requests under this Lease. 
 14.1.4 Other Defaults. (a) Tenant makes a general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors; (b) a petition for adjudication of bankruptcy or for reorganization or
rearrangement is filed by Tenant; (c) a petition for adjudication of bankruptcy or for reorganization or rearrangement is filed against Tenant and is not dismissed within thirty (30) days; (d) a trustee or receiver is appointed to
take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets, substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises, or of Tenant's interest in this Lease and possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or
(e) substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or Tenant's interest in this Lease is subjected to attachment, execution or other judicial seizure not discharged within thirty (30) days. If a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that any act described in this section does not constitute an Event of Default, and the court appoints a trustee to take possession of the Premises (or if Tenant remains a debtor in possession of the Premises) and such
trustee or Tenant Transfers Tenant's interest hereunder, then Landlord is entitled to receive, as Additional Rent, the amount by which the Rent (or any other consideration) paid in connection with the Transfer exceeds the Rent otherwise payable by
Tenant under this Lease. 
 14.1.5 Prohibited Transfer. If a Transfer occurs or is attempted in violation of Article 13 of
this Lease. 
 14.1.6 Environmental Default. Tenant violates the provisions of Article 5 relating to Hazardous Materials.

 14.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord may at any time and from time to time, without notice
or demand and without preventing Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy, exercise any of the following remedies: 
 14.2.1
Termination of Tenant's Possession/Re-entry and Reletting Right. Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Property at any time by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant must immediately surrender
possession of the Property to Landlord. In such event, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's default, including without limitation (i) the worth at the time of the award of the
unpaid Rent and other charges which Landlord had earned at the time of the termination; (ii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which Landlord would have earned after termination until the time of the
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves Landlord could have reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which Tenant would have paid for the balance of the Lease
Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves Landlord could have reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount, including court costs necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately
caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses Landlord incurs in maintaining or preserving
the Property after such default, the cost of recovering possession of the Property, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation or alteration of the Property, Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection therewith, and any
real estate commission paid or payable. As used in subparts (i) and (ii) above, the "worth at the time of the award" is computed by allowing interest at the Maximum Rate. As used in subpart (iii) above, the "worth at the time of the
award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award, plus one percent (1%) (if Tenant has abandoned the Premises, Landlord shall have the option of
(i) retaking possession of the Premises and recovering from Tenant the amount specified in this Section 14.2.1 or (ii) proceeding under Section 14.2.2 or Section 14.2.3. 
 14.2.2 Maintain Right to Possession. Maintain Tenant's right to possession, in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or
not Tenant has abandoned the Property. Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the Rent as it becomes due. The Landlord has the remedy described in California Civil
Code Section 1951.4 (Landlord may continue Lease in effect after Tenant's breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). During the period Tenant is
in default, Landlord may enter the Premises and relet them, or any part of them, to third parties for Tenant's account. Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises, including brokers'
commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises required by the reletting, and like costs. Reletting can be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining Term of this Lease. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Rent due under this Lease on the
dates the Rent is due, less the Rent Landlord receives from reletting. No act by Landlord allowed by this Section 14.2.2 will terminate this Lease unless Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease. After
Tenant's default and for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, if Tenant obtains Landlord's consent, Tenant will have the right to assign or sublet its interest in this Lease, but Tenant will not be
released from liability. If Landlord elects to relet the Premises as provided in this Section 14.2.2, Rent that Landlord receives from reletting will be applied to the payment of: (i) first, any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other
than Rent due from Tenant; (ii) second, all costs, including costs, incurred by Landlord in reletting; and (iii) third, Rent due and unpaid under the Lease. After deducting the payments referred to in this Section 14.2.2, any sum
remaining from the Rent Landlord receives from reletting will be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. If, on the date 

  


					
	2040 Main Street	 	14	 	9/29/04
	Office Lease Agreement	 		 	









 
Rent is due under this Lease, the Rent received from the reletting is less than the Rent due on that date, Tenant will pay to Landlord, in addition to the
remaining Rent due, all costs, including costs for maintenance, Landlord incurred in reletting which remain after applying the Rent received from the reletting. 
 14.2.3 Other Remedies. Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under the laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Property is located. 
 14.2.4 Right of Landlord to Re-Enter. In the event of any termination of this Lease, Landlord shall have the immediate right to enter upon
and repossess the Premises, and any personal property of Tenant may be removed from the Premises and stored in any public warehouse at the risk and expense of Tenant. 
 14.3 Costs. Tenant will reimburse and compensate Landlord on demand and as Additional Rent for any actual loss Landlord incurs in connection with, resulting from or related to any breach or default of
Tenant under this Lease, regardless of whether the breach or default constitutes an Event of Default, and regardless of whether or not suit is commenced or judgment is entered. Such loss includes all reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses
(including paralegal fees, expert fees, and other professional fees and expenses) Landlord reasonably incurs investigating, negotiating, settling or enforcing any of Landlord's rights or remedies or otherwise protecting Landlord's interests under
this Lease. Tenant will also Indemnify the Landlord Parties from and against all Claims Landlord or any of the other Landlord Parties incurs if Landlord or any of the other Landlord Parties becomes or is made a party to any Claim or action
(a) instituted by Tenant or by or against any person holding any interest in the Premises by, under or through Tenant; (b) for foreclosure of any lien for labor or material furnished to or for Tenant or such other person; or
(c) otherwise arising out of or resulting from any act or omission of Tenant or such other person. In addition to the foregoing, Landlord is entitled to reimbursement of all of Landlord's fees, expenses and damages, including, but not limited
to, reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegal and other professional fees and expenses, Landlord incurs in connection with protecting its interests in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving Tenant including, without limitation, any
proceeding under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code; by exercising and advocating rights under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; by proposing a plan of reorganization and objecting to competing plans; and by filing motions for relief from
stay. Such fees and expenses are payable on demand, or, in any event, upon assumption or rejection of this Lease in bankruptcy. 
 14.4
Waiver and Release by Tenant. Tenant waives and releases all Claims Tenant may have resulting from Landlord's re-entry and taking possession of the Premises by any lawful means and removing and storing Tenant's property as permitted under
this Lease, regardless of whether this Lease is terminated and, to the fullest extent allowable under the Laws, Tenant releases and will indemnify the Landlord Parties from and against any and all Claims occasioned thereby. No such reentry is to be
considered or construed as a forcible entry by Landlord. 
 14.5 Landlord's Default. If Landlord defaults in the performance of
any of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant will notify Landlord of the default and Landlord will have thirty (30) days after receiving such notice to cure the default. If Landlord is not reasonably able to cure the default within a thirty
(30) day period, Landlord will have an additional reasonable period of time to cure the default as long as Landlord commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues the cure. In no event shall
(a) Tenant be entitled to terminate this Lease as a result of Landlord's default under this Lease or (b) Landlord be liable to Tenant or any other person for consequential, special or punitive damages, including, without limitation, lost
profits. 
 14.6 No Waiver. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the performance of any provision of this Lease or to exercise
any right or remedy upon a breach or default thereof, and no acceptance by Landlord of full or partial Rent during the continuance of any such breach or default, constitutes Landlord's waiver of any such breach or default. No waiver of any breach or
default may be implied from any omission by Landlord to take any action on account of such breach or default. None of the terms of this Lease to be kept, observed or performed by Tenant, and no breach or default thereof, may be waived, altered or
modified except by a written instrument executed by Landlord. One or more waivers by Landlord is not to be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach or default of the same provision. No statement on a payment check from Tenant or in a letter
accompanying a payment check is binding on Landlord. Landlord may, with or without notice to Tenant, negotiate such check without being bound to the conditions of any such statement. If Tenant pays any amount other than the actual amount due
Landlord, receipt or collection of such partial payment does not constitute an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may retain any such partial payment, whether restrictively endorsed or otherwise, without prejudice to Landlord's right to collect the
balance properly due. If all or any portion of any payment is dishonored for any reason, payment will not be deemed made until the entire amount due is actually collected by Landlord. The foregoing provisions apply in kind to the receipt or
collection of any amount by a lock box agent or other person on Landlord's behalf. 
 ARTICLE 15 
 CREDITORS; ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES 
 15.1 Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to (a) the Master Lease, (b) all ground leases which may now exist or hereafter be executed affecting the Building, the Project, or the
land upon which the Building and Project are situated, or both, and any and all amendments, renewals, modifications, supplements and extensions thereof; and (c) the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust which may now exist or hereafter be
executed, and any and all advances made thereunder, and interest thereon and all modifications, renewals, supplements, consolidations and replacements thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant acknowledges that Master Lessor, Landlord and
Lienholder shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated any such ground leases or any such liens to this Lease. In the event that any ground lease terminates for any reason or any mortgage or deed of trust is foreclosed or a
conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason, Tenant shall, notwithstanding any subordination, attorn to and become the tenant of the successor in interest 

  


					
	2040 Main Street	 	15	 	9/29/04
	Office Lease Agreement	 		 	









 
to Landlord, at the option of such successor in interest and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect in such event. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Lease, such Lienholder succeeding to the interest of Landlord under this Lease (a "Successor Landlord") shall not be liable for or bound by any of the following matters: (a) any offset right that Tenant may have
against any former Landlord relating to any event or occurrence before the date of attornment, including any claim for damages of any kind whatsoever as the result of any breach by a former Landlord that occurred before the date of attornment,
provided that the foregoing shall not limit either (i) Tenant’s right to exercise against Successor Landlord any offset right otherwise available to Tenant because of events occurring after the date of attornment or (ii) Successor
Landlord’s obligation to correct any conditions that existed as of the date of attornment and violate Successor Landlord’s obligations as Landlord under this Lease; (b) any payment of Rent that Tenant may have made to a former
Landlord more than thirty (30) days before the date such Rent was first due and payable under this Lease with respect to any period after the date of attornment other than, and only to the extent that, this Lease expressly required such a
prepayment; (c) any obligation (i) to pay Tenant any sum(s) that any former Landlord owed to Tenant unless such sums, if any, shall have been actually delivered to Successor Landlord by way of an assumption of escrow accounts or otherwise;
(ii) with respect to any security deposited with a former Landlord, unless such security was actually delivered to a Successor Landlord; (iii) to commence or complete any initial construction of improvements in the Premises or any
expansion or rehabilitation of existing improvements thereon; (iv) to reconstruct or repair improvements following a fire, casualty or condemnation; or (v) arising from representations and warranties related to a former Landlord;
(e) any modification or amendment of this Lease, or any waiver of the terms of this Lease, made without Successor Landlord’s written consent; or (f) any consensual or negotiated surrender, cancellation, or termination of this Lease,
in whole or in part, agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant, unless effected unilaterally by Tenant pursuant to the express terms of this Lease. Tenant shall execute and deliver, upon reasonable prior notice from Landlord, any additional documents
in such form as is designated by Landlord evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease with respect to any such ground leases or the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
from any Lienholder to whose mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease this Lease is hereafter subordinated, an agreement of non-disturbance on such Lienholder’s standard form for the benefit of Tenant.

Tenant (by way of notice of assignment of rents and leases or otherwise) of the address of Lienholder. Tenant further agrees that if Landlord fails to cure such default within the time provided for in this Lease, then Tenant will provide written
notice of such failure to Lienholder and Lienholder will have an additional thirty (30) days within which to cure the default. If the default cannot be cured within the additional thirty (30) day period, then Lienholder will have such
additional time as may be necessary to effect the cure if, within the thirty (30) day period, Lienholder has commenced and is diligently pursuing the cure (including without limitation commencing foreclosure proceedings if necessary to effect
the cure). 
 15.4 Estoppel Certificates. 
 15.4.1 Contents. Upon Landlord's written request, Tenant will execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a written statement in form satisfactory to Landlord certifying: (a) that this Lease (and
all guaranties, if any) is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been any modifications, that the Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the modifications); (b) that this Lease has not been canceled or
terminated; (c) the last date of payment of Rent and the time period covered by such payment; (d) whether there are then existing any breaches or defaults by Landlord under this Lease known to Tenant, and, if so, specifying the same;
(e) specifying any existing claims or defenses in favor of Tenant against the enforcement of this Lease (or of any guaranties); and (f) such other factual statements as Landlord, any lender, prospective lender, investor or purchaser may
request. Tenant will deliver the statement to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after Landlord's request. Landlord may give any such statement by Tenant to any lender, prospective lender, investor or purchaser of all or any part of the
Property and any such party may conclusively rely upon such statement as true and correct. 
 15.4.2 Failure to Deliver. If
Tenant does not timely deliver the statement referenced in Section 15.4.1 to Landlord, (a) Landlord may execute and deliver the statement to any third party on behalf of Tenant and (b) such failure constitutes an Event of Default
under this Lease. Further, if Tenant so fails to timely deliver the statement, Landlord and any lender, prospective lender, investor or purchaser may conclusively presume and rely that, except as otherwise represented by Landlord, (i) the terms
and provisions of this Lease have not been changed; (ii) this Lease has not been canceled or terminated; (iii) not more than one month's Rent has been paid in advance; and (iv) Landlord is not in default in the performance of any of
its obligations under this Lease. In such event, Tenant is estopped from denying the truth of such facts.

Landlord at the place then fixed for Tenant's payment of Basic Rent or as Landlord or Property Manager otherwise directs. Tenant will also inform Landlord of
all combinations on locks, safes and vaults, if any, in the Premises or on the Project. Tenant will at such time remove all of its property from the Premises and, if Landlord so requests, all specified Alterations and improvements Tenant placed on
the Premises. Tenant will promptly repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal. Tenant releases and will Indemnify Landlord from and against any Claim resulting from Tenant's failure or delay in surrendering the Premises in accordance
with this Section, including, without limitation, any Claim made by any succeeding occupant founded on such delay. All property of Tenant not removed on or before the last day of the Term is deemed abandoned. Tenant appoints Landlord as Tenant's
agent to remove, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, all of Tenant's property from the Premises upon termination of this Lease and to cause its transportation and storage for Tenant's benefit, all at the sole cost and risk of Tenant, and Landlord
will not be liable for damage, theft, misappropriation or loss thereof or in any manner in respect thereto. 
 16.2 Holding

any Rent in default or any other sum which Landlord expends by reason of Tenant's default. Tenant is not entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit. It is expressly agreed that the Security Deposit is not an advance rental deposit or a measure
of Landlord's damages in the case of Tenant's default. Upon application of all or any part of the Security Deposit, Tenant must upon demand restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Any application of the Security Deposit by Landlord
shall not be deemed to have cured Tenant's default. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, and all other provisions of Law, now or hereinafter in force, which restrict the amount or types of claim
that a landlord may make upon a security deposit or imposes upon a landlord (or its successors) any obligation with respect to the handling or return of security deposits. The Security Deposit will be released to Tenant within forty-five

September 1, 1998 as Document No. 19980582940 and any amendments thereto and rules and regulations promulgated thereunder ("Parking Declaration"). In any event, under no circumstances may Tenant's parking rights and privileges be transferred,
assigned or otherwise conveyed separate and apart from Tenant's interest in this Lease. In no event will Master Lessor or Landlord be liable for any loss, damage or theft of, to or from any vehicle at the Project or given parking rights in
accordance with this section, and Tenant releases any Claim therefor, and, as to Tenant, Tenant's employees, licensees or invitees, will indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold the Landlord Parties harmless
against any Claim therefor or in connection therewith. "Unreserved Spaces" mean vehicular parking spaces located in the Parking Facilities provided for the Building which are not designated for the exclusive use of a specific tenant or for use by
visitors to the Property, as the same may be relocated or redesignated from time to time by Landlord. "Reserved Spaces" means vehicular parking spaces located in the parking facilities provided for the Building which are designated for the exclusive
use of a specific tenant, as the same may be relocated or redesignated from time to time by Landlord.

superseded by this Lease. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Lease (other than to the Building Rules) is binding on Landlord or Tenant unless it is in writing and signed by the party to be charged with performance.

 18.7 Severability. If any covenant, condition, provision, term or agreement of this Lease is, to any extent, held invalid or

Basic Terms) claiming by, through or on behalf of it with respect to this Lease or the negotiation of this Lease. Landlord will pay any brokers named in the Basic Terms in accordance with the applicable listing agreement for the Property. The
obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 
 18.12
Tenant's Waiver of Claim. To the fullest extent allowable under the Laws, Tenant agrees that the Landlord Parties are not liable to Tenant or any other person for, and Tenant releases the Landlord Parties from and waives, any and all

 18.22 Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees that Tenant will quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the

 18.24 Nondisclosure of Lease Terms. The terms and conditions of this Lease constitute proprietary information of Landlord that Tenant will keep confidential, unless disclosure is required by a court of
competent jurisdiction or law and Tenant promptly notifies Landlord of any court order to enable Landlord to object thereto or to seek a protective order. Tenant's disclosure of the terms and conditions of this Lease could adversely affect
Landlord's ability to negotiate other leases and impair Landlord's relationship with other tenants. Accordingly, Tenant will not, without Landlord's consent (which consent Landlord may grant or withhold in its sole, absolute and arbitrary
discretion), directly or indirectly disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to any other tenant or prospective tenant of the Building or to any other person or entity other than Tenant's employees and agents who have a legitimate need to
know such information (and who will also keep the same in confidence).

 18.25 Construction of Lease and Terms. The terms and provisions of this Lease represent the
results of negotiations between Landlord and Tenant, each of which are sophisticated parties and each of which has been represented or been given the opportunity to be represented by counsel of its own choosing, and neither of which has acted under
any duress or compulsion, whether legal, economic or otherwise. Consequently, the terms and provisions of this Lease must be interpreted and construed in accordance with their usual and customary meanings, and Landlord and Tenant each waive the
application of any rule of law that ambiguous or conflicting terms or provisions contained in this Lease are to be interpreted or construed against the party who prepared the executed Lease or any earlier draft of the same. Landlord's submission of
this instrument to Tenant for examination or signature by Tenant does not constitute a reservation of or an option to lease and is not effective as a lease or otherwise until Landlord and Tenant both execute and deliver this Lease. The parties agree
that, regardless of which party provided the initial form of this Lease, drafted or modified one or more provisions of this Lease, or compiled, printed or copied this Lease, this Lease is to be construed solely as an offer from Tenant to lease the
Premises, executed by Tenant and provided to Landlord for acceptance on the terms set forth in this Lease, which acceptance and the existence of a binding agreement between Tenant and Landlord may then be evidenced only by Landlord's execution and
delivery of this Lease to Tenant.

(the "Indemnitor") will indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the party(ies) receiving the indemnity (the "Indemnitee"), with the defense to be provided by counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. Landlord and Tenant intend that all
obligations to Indemnify hereunder are (to the maximum extent allowable under California law) to be construed broadly to, upon assertion of a Claim, shift the burden of both defense and indemnity from the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor. The
Indemnitor's obligations to Indemnify shall be triggered by the mere assertion of a Claim which is, either on its face or by reasonable inference from the allegations, within the scope of any of the Indemnitor's obligations to indemnify set forth in
this Lease. It is not a condition to the Indemnitor's obligation to Indemnify that it first be determined (judicially or otherwise) that (i) the Claim is in fact within the scope of the obligation to Indemnify, (ii) the Claim has merit, or
(iii) the Indemnitor was negligent or otherwise at fault in any respect. The obligations to defend and otherwise Indemnify are intended to arise upon the mere assertion of the Claim and to continue through final adjudication, settlement or
other resolution of the Claim.
