 LEASE AGREEMENT 

THIS LEASE is entered into as of December 5, 2011, by and between PDG CARLSBAD 47 & 48, LP, a California
limited partnership, (the “Landlord”) and IRIS INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware corporation, (the “Tenant”). 

ARTICLE 1 

DESCRIPTION OF PREMISES 
 1.1 Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hires from Landlord, pursuant to the terms, conditions and uses herein set forth, that certain real property commonly known as
1891 Rutherford Road, Suite 200, Carlsbad, California and more particularly described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto (the “Premises”), including a building located on the Premises containing approximately
25,776 rentable square feet, as shown on the drawing attached hereto as Exhibit “B” (the “Premises” or “Building”). 
 1.2 Tenant Improvements. In addition to the existing improvements, the Premises shall be improved with certain tenant improvements (the “Improvements”) as more fully described in
Section 4.1 and Exhibit “C” attached hereto. 
 ARTICLE 2 

TERM 
 2.1 Lease Term. The term of this Lease shall be for Eighty Four (84) months commencing on the earlier of (i) date which is ten (10) days after Landlord notifies Tenant that the
Improvements are completed and the Premises are ready for occupancy (and such notice is factually accurate), or (ii) the date on which Tenant shall take occupancy of the Premises and commences to conduct business operations therefrom (the
“Commencement Date”). If the Commencement Date occurs on other than the first day of a month, the term of this Lease shall be extended by the number of days remaining in the first calendar month of occupancy. 

2.2 Anticipated Commencement Date. The anticipated date on which the term shall commence is May 1, 2012, (the
“Anticipated Commencement Date”). If Landlord, for any reason, cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on said date with the Improvements completed, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such
failure affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Tenant hereunder; provided that, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay rent until possession of the Premises is tendered to Tenant with the Improvements completed, except to the extent
any such delay is the result of a Tenant Delay (defined below) in which case, the Tenant shall be obligated to commence payment of the Rent on the date the Improvements would have been completed but for the Tenant Delay. The term “Tenant
Delay” shall mean an actual delay resulting from the failure of Tenant to comply with its obligations under this Lease or Tenant unreasonably interfering with the completion of the Improvements; provided that no Tenant Delay shall be deemed to
have occurred unless Tenant has failed to cure the Tenant Delay within one (1) business days following written notice thereof from Landlord. 

  
 1 








 2.3 Delay in Possession. In the event Landlord shall not have
delivered possession of the Premises with the Improvements completed within two (2) months from the Anticipated Commencement Date set forth in Section 2.2, plus periods occurring as a result of any Tenant Delay or any delays which are
beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, including, but not limited, inclement weather, strikes, acts of God, inability to obtain labor or materials, ability to secure governmental approvals or permits, governmental restrictions, civil commotion,
fire or similar causes (not to exceed sixty (60) days), Tenant may, by written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days after the expiration of said two-month period, either (i) elect to receive two (2) days of rental abatement
for each day beyond the end of such two-month period until the Improvements are so completed and the Premises is delivered to Tenant, or (ii) terminate this Lease and, upon Landlord’s return of any monies previously deposited by Tenant,
the parties shall have no further rights or liabilities towards each other. Provided further, however, that if such written notice of Tenant is not given to Landlord within said ten (10) day period, Tenant’s right to cancel this Lease
under this Section 2.3 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. 
 2.4 Supplemental
Agreement. Tenant agrees to execute a supplemental agreement within ten (10) days after receipt in form requested by Landlord which shall confirm the Commencement Date of this Lease. 

ARTICLE 3 

RENT 
 3.1 Base Monthly Rental. Tenant shall pay to Landlord at the address set forth in Section 35.10, or such other address as Landlord may advise Tenant in writing, without deduction, offset or
prior notice or demand (except as otherwise provided herein), and Landlord shall accept, as rent for the Premises the sum outlined below, per month, in lawful money of the United States payable in advance on the first day of each month of the term
of this Lease. Said monthly installments shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Base Monthly Rental.” Tenant has delivered to Landlord the Base Monthly Rental for the first month of the term hereof upon execution and delivery of this
Lease.

 3.2 Proration of Rent. In the event that the Commencement Date is not
on the first day of the month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord prior to the first day of the second full calendar month following the Commencement Date, in lieu of the Base Monthly Rental for such second month, an amount equal to the Base Monthly
Rental multiplied by a factor having as its numerator the number of days remaining from and after the Commencement Date in the month in which the Commencement Date occurs and as its denominator the number thirty. Thereafter, rent shall be payable in
accordance with the terms of Section 3.1. 
 3.3 Annual Adjustments. [Intentionally Blank]

 3.4 Additional Rent, Expenses and Costs. Tenant shall pay as additional rent (“Additional
Rent”) insurance pursuant to Section 10, taxes pursuant to Section 12, maintenance, roof and structural repairs pursuant to Sections 11.2 and 11.3, or other charges, expenses and cost provided for herein, as described and in the
manner provided in Article 13. Landlord shall have the right to reasonably estimate and collect from Tenant in advance on a monthly basis any such Additional Rent. 

3.5 Late Fees. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of the Base Monthly Rental or other
charges incurred under this Lease will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impracticable to fix. Such costs include, without limitation, processing,
administrative and accounting charges, and late charges that may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any note secured by any mortgage encumbering the Premises. If any payment of Base Monthly Rental, Excess Operating Expenses, or other charges due
from Tenant is not received by Landlord within three (3) business days following the delivery of written notice to Tenant that same is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of the greater of (i) five percent (5%) of the
overdue rent or (ii) Fifteen Dollars ($15.00) as a late charge. Late charges shall constitute Additional Rent. The parties agree that the late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of
late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the overdue amount, or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no late fee shall be due and owing with respect to the first late payment during every calendar year of this Lease unless Tenant continues to fail to pay the required amount due and owing to Landlord within
ten (10) business days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice from Landlord. 
 3.6 Security
Deposit. Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum of Forty Seven Thousand Seventy Dollars ($47,070.00), receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, as security for the full performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease. 

3.6.1 If Tenant shall be in default with respect to the payment of the Base Monthly Rental or any other covenant
contained herein, after the expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods, Landlord may use or retain all or any part of the security deposit for the payment of any sum in default, or for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend or
become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default. If any portion of said security deposit be so applied or used, Tenant shall, within five (5) business days after written notice thereof, deposit an additional amount with Landlord
sufficient to restore said security deposit to the amount set forth above and Tenant’s failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Lease. 

  
 3 








 3.6.2 If Tenant is not in default at the expiration or earlier termination
of this Lease, Landlord shall return said security deposit to Tenant within two (2) weeks after said expiration or termination of this Lease, less any amounts required, as a result of Tenant’s failure to comply with its restoration
obligations hereunder, to restore the Premises to good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, including damage resulting from the removal by Tenant of its trade fixtures or equipment. 

3.6.3 Landlord’s obligation with respect to any security deposit is that of a debtor and not as a trustee,
consequently, such sums may be commingled with rental receipts or dissipated and no interest shall accrue thereon. 
 3.6.4 In the event of the sale of the real property of which the Premises constitute a part, Landlord or its agents shall pay over to Landlord’s successor in interest the sums held as security or
advance rent and notify Tenant in writing setting forth the particularity of such transfer, including the successor’s name and address. Upon such written notification, (and provided Landlord’s successor-in-interest in fact received said
security deposit), Tenant shall have no further claim against Landlord with respect to any such security deposit and hereby waives all rights against Landlord in such regard. 

3.6.5 In the event of foreclosure by the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Premises, Landlord shall
continue to be liable for any security deposit and any such mortgagee shall have no liability or responsibility therefor. 
 3.7 Tenant shall have the right to, prior to the Commencement Date, remeasure the Premises in accordance with the standards set forth in ANSI Z65.1-1996, as promulgated by the Building Owners and Managers
Association (“BOMA Standard”), including allocation of common areas, and in the event that subsequent remeasurement of the Premises by Tenant produces a square footage number in excess of or lower than the square footage number which would
have resulted had the BOMA Standard been utilized, any payments due to Landlord from Tenant based upon the amount of square feet contained in the Premises shall be proportionally, retroactively and prospectively reduced or increased, as appropriate,
to reflect the actual number of square feet as remeasured under the BOMA Standard. 
 ARTICLE 4 

TENANT IMPROVEMENTS 
 4.1 Tenant Improvements. Subject to the provisions of Exhibit “C” of this Lease, Landlord shall cause to be constructed, for the mutual benefit of Tenant and Landlord, certain
modifications and improvements to the Premises as more fully described in Exhibit “C” attached hereto. 
 4.2 Acceptance of Premises. Subject to Landlord’s other obligations under this Lease (including the completion of the Improvements), Tenant shall accept the Premises in a boom clean, “As
Is” condition, with all personal property of Landlord and any prior tenant removed. 

  
 4 








 
However, prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost, shall provide that the roof, existing HVAC systems, mechanical, fire/life/safety, electrical and plumbing systems
serving the Premises and Building are in good working condition and shall ensure that the Premises, Building and parking areas, in their current condition and build-out, meet and, other than as a result of modifications or improvements made by
Tenant, continue to meet during the term of this Lease all current laws, codes and conditions including Building, fire and life safety and applicable Americans With Disabilities Act requirements. Prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall
provide Tenant with a current Phase I Environmental Assessment of the Premises and shall remediate any environmental violations described therein at its sole cost. Such Phase I Environmental Assessment shall be the baseline for the
pre-lease environmental condition of the Premises under the lease. The parties agree that a Phase I Environmental Assessment prepared for Isis Pharmaceuticals within six (6) months prior to the Commencement Date, with a peer review by Kasai
Consulting, shall qualify as an acceptable Phase I Environmental Assessment for purposes of this paragraph (hereinafter, the “Existing Phase I”). Landlord prior to Tenant’s occupancy shall perform testing to ensure that the
gas lines are in sound condition and free of leaks and promptly provide said results to Tenant. In addition, Landlord shall provide Tenant with confirmation that the underground sewer system is in sound condition and free of leaks. 

ARTICLE 5 

USE 
 5.1 Permitted Use of Premises. The Premises shall be used and occupied by Tenant solely for pharmaceutical, medical and biotechnology laboratory, research and development uses and any other uses
permitted under applicable law and zoning, including but not limited to general office space. 
 The Premises
are to be used for no other purposes without first obtaining the consent of Landlord. Tenant shall not commit or permit any nuisance, act or other thing which may disturb the quiet enjoyment of the other tenants of the Building. 

5.2 Compliance with Laws. Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense, shall promptly comply, or cause compliance, with
all laws, ordinances, zoning restrictions, rules, regulations, orders and requirements of any duly constituted public authorities now or hereafter affecting the use, safety, cleanliness and occupation of the Premises; provided that Tenant shall have
no obligation to perform any structural repairs or other capital improvements (unless resulting from alterations performed by Tenant or from Tenant’s particular use). 

5.3 Prohibited Uses. Tenant shall not do, bring or keep anything in or about the Premises that will cause a
cancellation of any insurance covering the Premises or the Building. Tenant shall not use the Premises in any manner that will constitute waste, nuisance or unreasonable annoyance to owners or occupants of nearby properties, provided that
Tenant’s proper and lawful use of the Premises for the contemplated use shall not constitute any such nuisance or annoyance. Subject to the foregoing, Tenant shall not use the Premises for sleeping, cooking, washing clothes, or the preparation,
manufacture, or mixing of anything that might emit any odor or objectionable noises or lights onto nearby properties, nor shall any animals or birds 

  
 5 








 
be brought in or kept in or about the Premises. Tenant shall not do anything on the Premises that will cause damage to the Building. Tenant shall place no loads upon the floors, walls or ceiling
of the Building in excess of the maximum designed load specified by Landlord or which may damage the Building. No machinery, apparatus, or other appliance shall be used or operated in or on the Premises that will in any manner injure, the Premises.

 5.4 Rules and Regulations. Provided Tenant receives reasonable advance notice of the same and
Tenant’s use of the Premises is not impaired as a result, Tenant shall comply with all nondiscriminatory rules and regulations (the “Rules and Regulations”) from time to time reasonably adopted by Landlord with respect to the
Premises. 
 ARTICLE 6 
 ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS 
 6.1 Prohibited
Alterations. Tenant shall not make any alterations, improvements or additions to the Premises, except for non-structural alterations not exceeding Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) in aggregate cost per annum over the Term of the Lease, without
obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any such improvements, excepting movable furniture and trade fixtures, shall become part of the realty and belong to Landlord. All
alterations and improvements shall be installed at Tenant’s sole cost, by a licensed contractor, in a good and workmanlike manner, and in conformity with the laws of all applicable duly constituted public authorities. 

6.2 Notice of Commencement. At least twenty (20) days prior to commencing any work relating to any
alterations, improvements or additions approved by Landlord, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of the expected date of commencement. Landlord shall have the right at any time thereafter to post and maintain on the Premises such notices as
Landlord reasonably deems necessary to protect Landlord and the Premises from mechanics’ liens, materialmen’s liens or any other liens. Tenant shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials furnished to or for Tenant for use in
improving the Premises. Tenant shall not permit any mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens to be levied against the Premises arising out of work performed, materials furnished, or obligations to have been performed on the Premises by or at the
request of Tenant. Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless against loss, damage, attorneys’ fees and all other expenses on account of claims of lien of laborers or materialmen or others for work performed or materials or supplies
furnished for Tenant or its contractors, agents or employees. If Tenant fails to remove or bond any lien(s) filed against the Premises in connection with any work performed or any work claimed to have been performed by or at the direction of Tenant
within ten (10) business days from the date of the lien(s) filing, Landlord may remove such lien(s) at Tenant’s expense and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the removal of the lien(s),
which amount shall be deemed Additional Rent, and shall include, without limitation, all sums disbursed, incurred or deposited by Landlord, including Landlord’s costs, expenses and actual attorneys’ fees, with interest thereon, at ten
percent (10%) per annum from the date of expenditure. 

  
 6 








 6.3 Trade Fixtures. Tenant may install trade fixtures, machinery or
other trade equipment in conformance with the ordinances of all applicable duly constituted public authorities. Tenant may remove any of such trade fixtures or machinery upon the termination of this Lease. In the event that Tenant installs
improvements, machinery or trade fixtures following the Commencement Date, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s election (which must have been communicated to Tenant concurrently with Landlord’s approval of any such improvements, to the extent such
approval is required), return the Premises on termination of this Lease to the same condition as existed at the Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear excepted, including the removal of improvements approved by Landlord in Section 6.1, if
Landlord’s approval was conditioned upon Tenant’s removal of said improvements. Tenant shall, in any event, repair any damage resulting from the removal of machinery or trade fixtures of Tenant. 

ARTICLE 7 

SURRENDER OF PREMISES

Tenant’s personal property and shall repair any damage and perform any restoration work caused by such removal. If Tenant fails to remove such alterations and Tenant’s personal property pursuant to the above, and such failure continues for
more than ten (10) business days after the termination of the Lease, Landlord may retain such property and all rights of Tenant with respect to it shall cease, or Landlord may place all or any portion of such property in public storage for

with attorneys’ fees and interest on said amounts, from the date of expenditure by Landlord. If the Premises are not so surrendered at the termination of this Lease, Tenant hereby agree to indemnify Landlord and its agents against all loss or
liability resulting from such delay Tenant in so surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding Tenant, losses to Landlord due to lost opportunity to lease to succeeding tenants, actual attorneys’
fees and costs. 
 ARTICLE 8 
 UTILITIES AND SERVICES 
 8.1 Utilities. Tenant shall
make all arrangements for and pay for all water, sewer, gas, heat, light, power, telephone service and any other service or utility Tenant requires at the Premises. Except as provided in Section 8.3 below, Landlord shall not be liable for any
failure or interruption of any utility service being furnished to the Premises, and no such failure or interruption shall entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease. 

  
 7 








 8.2 Landlord Service. In the event that any utilities are furnished
by Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost thereof in the manner set forth in Section 13.3. Tenant’s cost shall be the total cost shown on utility meters servicing the Premises and Landlord’s actual, out-of-pocket costs
incurred in connection with any extraordinary use which may be made by Tenant. 
 8.3 Abatement for
Untenantability. In the event that Tenant is reasonably prevented from using the Premises or any material portion thereof and does not use the same, as a result of (a) any entry by Landlord into the Premises, or alteration or construction
in the common areas or affecting the Building structure or Building systems, or any other repair, maintenance or alteration which is performed by Landlord, or which is required hereunder to be performed by Landlord and which Landlord failed to
perform after the Commencement Date, which materially interferes with Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises (or the applicable portion thereof), (b) any failure, for any reason within the Building to provide access to the Premises or
any failure caused by Landlord to provide services or utilities to the Premises, in either case to the extent such failure materially impairs Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, or (c) the presence of Hazardous Materials which have
been conclusively determined to have not been brought on the Premises by Tenant which materially impairs Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises (any such set of circumstances as set forth in items (a), (b) or (c), above, to be known as
an “Abatement Event”), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such Abatement Event, and if such Abatement Event continues for three (3) consecutive business days or seven (7) non-consecutive business days in any twelve
(12) month period (the “Eligibility Period”), then the Base Monthly Rent and all other Rent payable by Tenant hereunder on a periodic basis (collectively, “Periodic Rent”), shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be,
from the commencement of the Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using and does not use the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant
is prevented from using and does not use bears to the total rentable area of the Premises (provided, that if Tenant is prevented from using a portion of the Premises for a period of time in excess of the Eligibility Period and the remaining portion
of the Premises is not sufficient to allow Tenant to effectively conduct its business therein and Tenant in fact does not conduct business therein, then after expiration of the Eligibility Period, and for such time that Tenant continues to be so
prevented from effectively conducting its business in any portion of the Premises, Tenant’s obligations to pay Periodic Rent for the entire Premises shall be abated for such time as Tenant continues to be so prevented from using the Premises).
If Landlord has not cured an Abatement Event within two hundred seventy (270) days after Landlord’s receipt of written notice of the Abatement Event from Tenant and such Abatement Event materially interferes with Tenant’s use of the
Premises, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease during the first fifteen (15) business days of the first full calendar month following the end of such two hundred seventy (270) day period, which right may be exercised only by
delivery of notice to Landlord (the “Abatement Event Termination Notice”) during such five (5) business-day period, and shall be effective as of the date set forth in the Abatement Event Termination Notice (the “Abatement Event
Termination Date”), which Abatement Event Termination Date shall not be less than thirty (30) days, and not more than six (6) months, following the date on which Tenant delivers to Landlord an Abatement Event Termination Notice.

 10.1.1 Property Insurance—Building, Improvements.
Landlord shall obtain and keep in force a policy or policies of insurance in the name of Landlord with loss payable to Landlord and to any Lender insuring loss or damage to the Building and/or Project. The amount of such insurance shall be equal

commercially appropriate, such policy or policies by Landlord shall insure against all risks of direct physical loss or damage to include earthquake; (flood may be included if required by a Lender), including coverage for debris removal and the
enforcement of any Applicable Requirements requiring the upgrading, demolition, reconstruction or replacement of any portion of the Premises as the result of a covered loss. Said policy or policies by Landlord shall also contain an agreed valuation
provision in lieu of any coinsurance clause, waiver of subrogation, and inflation guard protection causing an increase in the annual property insurance coverage amount by a factor of not less than the adjusted U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price
Index for All Urban Consumers for the city nearest to where the Premises are located and other endorsements which Landlord may elect to maintain and which may be reasonably required by the first mortgagee or beneficiary of a deed of trust
encumbering real property of which the Premises constitute a part (“Mortgagee”). If such insurance coverage has a deductible clause, the deductible amount shall not exceed $5,000 per occurrence. 

10.1.2 Property Insurance—Loss of Rents. Landlord shall also obtain and keep in force a policy or policies in
the name of Landlord with loss payable to Landlord insuring the loss of the full Rent for one year with an extended period of indemnity for an additional 365 days (“Loss of Rents”). Said insurance shall contain an agreed valuation

$1,000,000 per occurrence with an annual aggregate of not less than $2,000,000. Tenant shall add Landlord as an additional insured by means of an endorsement at least as broad as the Insurance Service Organization’s “Additional
Insured-Managers or Landlords of Premises” Endorsement and coverage shall also 

  
 10 









 
be extended to include damage caused by heat, smoke or fumes from a hostile fire. The policy shall not contain any intra-insured exclusions as between insured persons or organizations, but shall
include coverage for liability assumed under this Lease as an “insured contract” for the performance of Tenant’s indemnity obligations under this Lease. The limits of said insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of Tenant
nor relieve Tenant of any obligation hereunder. Tenant shall provide an endorsement on its liability policy(ies) which provides that its insurance shall be primary to and not contributory with any similar insurance carried by Landlord, whose
insurance shall be considered excess insurance only. 
 The amount of such Commercial General Liability insurance shall be
increased from time to time as Landlord may reasonably determine. All such bodily injury and property damage insurance shall specifically insure the performance by Tenant of the indemnity agreement as to personal injury or property damage contained

 10.3.6 Insurance Policies. All policies of insurance to be provided by Tenant shall be issued by insurance companies, with general policy holder’s rating of not less than A- and a financial
rating of not less than Class A as rated in the most current available “Best’s” Insurance Reports, and qualified to do business in the State of California or such other rating as may be required by a Lender. Such policies shall
be issued in the names of Landlord and Tenant and, if requested by Landlord, any mortgagee. The policies provided by Tenant shall be for the mutual and joint benefit and protection of Landlord, Tenant and any mortgagee. Tenant shall not do or permit
to be done anything which invalidates the required insurance policies. Tenant shall, prior to the Commencement Date, deliver to Landlord certified copies of policies of such insurance or certificates with copies of the required endorsements
evidencing the existence and amounts of the required insurance. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to modification except after ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall, prior to the expiration


  
 11 









 
of such policies, furnish Landlord with evidence of renewals or “insurance binders” evidencing renewal thereof, or Landlord may order such insurance and charge the cost thereof to
Tenant, which amount shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. Such policies shall be for a term of at least one year, or the length of the remaining term of this Lease, whichever is less. If either Party shall fail to procure and maintain
the insurance required to be carried by it, the other Party may, but shall not be required to, procure and maintain the same. 
 10.3.7 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Tenant’s obligation to carry the insurance described in this Section may be brought within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or policies of
insurance carried and maintained by the Tenant, provided that (i) Landlord and any mortgagee shall be named as an additional insured thereunder as their interests may appear, (ii) the coverage afforded Landlord will not be reduced or
diminished by reason of the use of such blanket policy of insurance, and (iii) the requirements set forth herein are otherwise satisfied. Tenant agrees to permit Landlord at all reasonable time to inspect the policies of insurance of Tenant
covering the Premises for policies which are not required to be delivered to Landlord. 
 10.4 Release of
Subrogation Rights. Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually release each other from liability and waive all right to recover against each other for any loss from perils insured against under their respective property insurance policies, including
any extended coverage and special form endorsements to said policies; provided, however, this Section shall be inapplicable if it would have the effect, but only to the extent that it would have the effect, of invalidating any insurance coverage of
Landlord or Tenant. The parties shall obtain, if available, from their respective insurance companies, a waiver of any right of subrogation which said insurance company may have against the Landlord or the Tenant, as the case may be. 

ARTICLE 11 

CARE OF THE PREMISES 
 11.1 Care of Premises. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense keep the Premises and exterior and interior portions of windows, doors, and all other glass or plate glass fixtures in a working

 11.3 Roof and Structural and Other Maintenance Obligations of
Landlord. Landlord shall keep in good condition and repair the foundations, exterior walls, fire/life/safety systems, roof and structural components of the Building, but the cost thereof (other than any capital expenditures which shall be
amortized over the life of the improvement with the amount charged to Tenant limited to the period of the remaining term of the Lease) shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent in accordance with the manner set forth in Section 13.3. Landlord
shall have no obligation to make any such repairs until Landlord has received written notice from Tenant with respect to the need for such repairs. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default with respect with its obligation to repair unless and
until Landlord has (i) received said written notice and (ii) failed to make such repairs within a reasonable period following the receipt of said notice. Landlord shall, after receiving written notice, exercise due diligence in making such
repairs. Tenant hereby waives any provisions of law permitting Tenant to make repairs at Landlord’s expense. Landlord shall enforce any construction warranties for the benefit of Tenant to the extent that they are available.

business by reason thereof) and upon completion thereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent Landlord’s costs for making such repairs, plus interest at ten percent (10%) per annum upon demand therefor. Moreover, Tenant’s
failure to pay any of the charges in connection with the performance of its maintenance and repair obligations under this Lease will constitute a material default under the Lease. 

11.6 Action by Tenant if Landlord Fails to Perform. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Lease, if Tenant provides written notice to Landlord of an event or circumstance which requires the action of Landlord with respect to repair and/or maintenance of the Premises which Landlord is required to provide pursuant to this Lease, and
Landlord fails to commence such action within five (5) business days following the delivery of two (2) successive written notices from Tenant and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion (except in the event of an emergency
with an imminent threat to the health or safety of Tenant’s employees, or an imminent threat of substantial damage to Tenant’s property, then within two (2) business days), then, Tenant shall have the right to perform the required
action of Landlord, and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the costs thereof within thirty (30) days after presentation of a reasonably detailed invoice demonstrating the expenses incurred by Tenant. If Landlord fails to


  
 13 









 
reimburse Tenant within such thirty (30) day period, then Tenant shall be entitled to deduct from rent the costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the repair work performed by Tenant
pursuant to this Section 11.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event Tenant takes any repair action pursuant to this Section 11.6, and such work will affect the structural integrity or exterior appearance

and personal property to be separately assessed. If, however, any or all of said items shall be assessed and taxed with the real property, Tenant shall pay to Landlord such taxes as are attributable to Tenant’s trade fixtures, furnishings,
equipment and personal property within fifteen (15) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord advising Tenant of the taxes applicable to Tenant’s property. 

12.2 Real Property Taxes. Tenant shall also pay in the manner set forth in Section 13.3 any and all real

share of square feet in the Building and any special improvements constructed for the benefit of Tenant. Real estate taxes for the last year of the term of this Lease shall be prorated between Landlord and Tenant as of the expiration date of the

for other governmental services formerly provided without charge to property owners or occupants. It is the intention of Tenant and Landlord that all such new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges and all similar assessments,

Guidelines), any applicable municipal or other governmental permits and approvals. The cost of the sign(s), including the installation, maintenance and removal thereof shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. If Tenant fails to maintain its
sign(s), or if Tenant fails to remove such sign(s) upon termination of the Lease, and repair any damage caused by such removal (including without limitation, painting the building, if reasonably required by Landlord) Landlord may do so at
Tenant’s expense. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord to effect such removal, which amounts shall be deemed Additional Rent and shall include without limitation, all sums disbursed,

Tenant or Tenant’s employees, or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, without Landlord’s prior written consent in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any purported assignment or subletting

portion thereof, it shall first notify Landlord of its desire to do so and shall submit in writing to Landlord (i) the name of the proposed Subtenant or assignee; (ii) the nature of the proposed Subtenant’s or assignee’s business
to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) the terms and provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment; and (iv) such reasonable financial information as Landlord may request concerning the proposed Subtenant or assignee. Tenant agrees to
reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s actual costs and attorneys’ fees (not to exceed $2,500) incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any such requested assignment, subletting, transfer, change or ownership or
hypothecation of this Lease. 
 16.3 Excess Rent. If in connection with any assignment or sublease,
Tenant receives rent or other consideration either initially or over the term of the sublease or assignment in excess of (i) the Monthly Rent called for hereunder, plus (ii) Tenant’s direct out-of-pocket costs which Tenant certifies
to Landlord to have been incurred in connection with any sublease or assignment or otherwise in connection with providing occupancy related services to any such subtenant or assignee of a nature commonly provided by Landlords of similar space, then
promptly following its receipt thereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, fifty percent (50%) of such excess as and when received. 

16.4 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet all or a
portion of the Premises to any entity controlling Tenant, controlled by Tenant or under common control with Tenant, any entity with which Tenant has merged or consolidated, or any entity which acquires or succeeds to all or substantially all of the
assets or business of Tenant (each, a “Tenant Affiliate”), without the prior written consent of Landlord; provided, however, Tenant shall not be released from liability hereunder on account of any such assignment or sublease and Tenant
shall provide Landlord with notice of such assignment or sublease within a reasonable period of time following its effective date. 

  
 18 









 16.5 No Release of Liability. No subletting, even with the consent of
Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay the rent and perform all the other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of
any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any assignment or subletting. 
 ARTICLE 17 

ABANDONMENT 
 17.1 No Abandonment. Tenant shall not abandon the Premises at any time during the term of this Lease. If Tenant shall abandon or surrender the Premises, or be disposed by process of law, or
otherwise, Landlord may terminate this Lease, retake possession of the Premises, pursue its remedies provided herein, and any personal property or trade fixtures belonging to Tenant and left on the Premises shall, at the option of Landlord, be
deemed abandoned. In such case, Landlord may dispose of said personal property in any manner and is hereby relieved of all liability for doing so. 
 ARTICLE 18 
 BREACH BY TENANT

this Lease by Tenant: 
 18.1.1 The failure of Tenant to pay or cause to be paid when due any Base Monthly

18.1.2 The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant; 

18.1.3 The failure of Tenant to perform any term, covenant or condition, other than payment of rent, monies or charges,
required by this Lease and Tenant shall have failed to cure such failure within thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord; provided, however, that where such failure cannot reasonably be cured within the thirty (30) day period,
the Tenant shall not be in default if it has commenced such cure within the same thirty (30) day period and diligently thereafter prosecutes the same to completion which in all events must occur within ninety (90) days thereafter;


  
 19 









 18.1.4 To the extent permitted by applicable law, any act of bankruptcy

18.2 Five-Day Notice. In the event that Landlord issues a five (5) business day notice, notice of abandonment
or comparable document by reason of Tenant’s breach, and Tenant cures such default, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, the reasonable cost of preparation and delivery of same. 

18.3 No Waiver. The acceptance by Landlord of rent due hereunder after breach by Tenant will not constitute a
waiver of such breach, unless a writing to that effect has been delivered to Tenant. 
 ARTICLE 19 

REMEDIES UPON BREACH 
 19.1 Landlord’s Remedies. In the event of any breach by Tenant, in addition to other rights or remedies of Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the following remedies: 

19.1.1 Landlord may recover from Tenant the Rent, including without limitation Additional Rent, as it becomes due and any
other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all 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. Landlord may sue
monthly, annually or after such equal or unequal periods as Landlord desires for amounts due under this Section 19.1.1. The right to collect rent as it becomes due shall terminate upon the termination by Landlord of Tenant’s right to
possession. Tenant’s right to possession shall not be terminated unless and until Landlord delivers to Tenant written notice thereof; and 
 19.1.2 Landlord, either as an alternative or subsequent to exercising the remedies set forth in Section 19.1.1, may terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises by and upon delivery to
Tenant of written notice of termination. Landlord may then immediately reenter the Premises and take possession thereof pursuant to legal proceedings and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed and stored in a
public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant. No notice of termination shall be necessary in the event that Tenant has abandoned the Premises. In the event that Landlord elects to terminate Tenant’s right of
possession, Landlord may recover the following: 

  
 20 









 19.1.2.1. The worth at the time of the award of the unpaid rent which had
been earned at the time of termination. “Worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at ten percent (10%) per annum from the first day the breach occurs; 

19.1.2.2. The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after
termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided. “Worth at the time of award” shall be determined by allowing interest at the rate of ten percent
(10%) per annum from the first day a breach occurs; 
 19.1.2.3. The worth at the time of award of the
amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided. “Worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting
such amount at the discount rate at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%); and 
 19.1.2.4. Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary course of
things would be likely to result therefrom including, but not limited to, commissions and expenses of reletting, attorneys’ fees, costs of alterations and repairs, recording fees, filing fees and any other expenses customarily resulting from
obtaining possession of leased premises and re-leasing. 
 19.2 Forfeiture. It is understood that all
covenants made by Tenant herein are conditions of this Lease; therefore, in the event of any default by Tenant in fulfilling any of the same, Landlord may at any time thereafter at its option declare a forfeiture of this Lease, and any holding over
thereafter shall be construed to be a tenancy from month-to-month only, for the same rental and the same conditions, except as to term, as set forth in this Lease. 
 ARTICLE 20 
 DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION 

20.1 Landlord’s Obligation to Rebuild. If the Premises are damaged or destroyed, Landlord shall promptly and
diligently repair the Premises unless it has the right to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 20.2 below and it elects to so terminate. 
 20.2 Landlord’s Right to Terminate. Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease following damage to or destruction of the Premises if any of the following occurs: (i) insurance
proceeds together with additional amounts Tenant agrees to contribute are not available to Landlord to pay one hundred percent (100%) of the cost to fully repair the damaged Premises, excluding the deductible for which Landlord shall be
responsible; (ii) the Premises cannot, with reasonable diligence, be substantially repaired by Landlord within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of the damage or destruction; (iii) the Premises cannot be safely


  
 21 









 
repaired because of the presence of hazardous factors, including, but not limited to, earthquake faults, radiation, chemical waste and other similar dangers; or (iv) the Premises are
destroyed or damaged during the last twelve (12) months of the Term. In addition, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease following damage to or destruction of the Premises if any of the following occurs: (A) the Premises
cannot be or are not, with reasonable diligence, substantially repaired by Landlord within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of the damage or destruction or (B) the Premises are destroyed or damaged during the last twelve
(12) months of the Term. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a good faith written estimate prepared by Landlord’s contractor of the period of time required for restoration within 30 days following the date of the casualty. 

If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord may give Tenant written notice of its election to terminate within
thirty (30) days after it has knowledge of such damage or destruction, and this Lease shall terminate fifteen (15) days after the date Tenant receives such notice. If this Lease is terminated, Landlord shall, subject to the rights of its
lender(s), be entitled to receive and retain all the insurance proceeds resulting from such damage, except for those proceeds payable under policies obtained by Tenant. If Landlord elects not to terminate the Lease, Landlord shall, promptly
following the date of such damage or destruction and receipt of any amounts provided by Tenant pursuant to Section 20.2(i) above, commence the process of obtaining necessary permits and approvals, and shall commence repair of the Premises as
soon as practicable and thereafter prosecute the same diligently to completion, in which event this Lease will continue in full force and effect. 
 20.3 Limited Obligation to Repair. Landlord’s obligation, should it elect or be obligated to repair or rebuild, shall be limited to the Premises and Tenant Improvements and Tenant shall, at
its expense, replace or fully repair all Tenant’s personal property and any alterations installed by Tenant existing at the time of such damage or destruction (except to the extent Landlord’s insurance proceeds cover said alterations). If
the Premises are to be repaired in accordance with the foregoing, Landlord shall make available to Tenant any portion of insurance proceeds it receives which are allocable to the alterations constructed by Tenant pursuant to this Lease provided
Tenant is not then in default, after the expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods. 
 20.4
Abatement of Rent. Rent shall be temporarily abated proportionately, based upon the extent to which Tenant’s business operations have been impaired due to such damage or destruction, as reasonably determined by Tenant. Such abatement
shall commence upon such damage or destruction and end upon substantial completion by Landlord of the repair or reconstruction which Landlord is obligated or undertakes to do and the delivery of the Premises to Tenant. Tenant shall not be entitled
to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the Premises, damage to Tenant’s personal property or any inconvenience occasioned by such damage, repair or restoration. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of
Section 1932(2) and Section 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, and the provisions of any similar law hereinafter enacted.

 ARTICLE 21 
 CONDEMNATION 
 21.1 Total Taking—Termination.
If title to all of the Premises or so much thereof is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statue or by right of eminent domain so that reconstruction of the Premises will not result in the Premises being reasonably suitable for
Tenant’s continued occupancy for the uses and purposes permitted by this Lease, this Lease shall terminate as of the date possession of the Premises or part thereof be taken. 

21.2 Partial Taking. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the power of eminent domain, or sold
by Landlord under the threat of the exercise of such power, this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date that the condemning authority takes possession of the Premises. If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises
is taken or sold under such threat, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date that the condemning authority takes possession by delivery of written notice of such election within twenty (20) days after such party has
been notified of the taking or, in the absence thereof, within twenty (20) days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession. Each party hereby waives the provisions of Section 1265.130 of the California Code Civil Procedure
allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to termination in the event of a partial taking of the Building or Premises. 
 21.3 No Apportionment of Award. No award for any partial or entire taking shall be apportioned, it being agreed and understood that Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award for any partial or
entire taking. Tenant assigns to Landlord its interest in any award which may be made in such taking or condemnation, together with any and all rights of Tenant arising in or to the same or any part thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to give Landlord any interest in or require Tenant to assign to Landlord any separate award made to Tenant for the taking of Tenant’s personal property, for the interruption of Tenant’s business, for any leasehold value, or its moving
costs, or for the loss of its goodwill. 
 21.4 Temporary Taking. No temporary taking of the Premises
shall terminate this Lease or give Tenant any right to any abatement of Rent. Any award made to Tenant be reason of such temporary taking shall belong entirely to Tenant and Landlord shall not be entitled to share therein. Each party agrees to
execute and deliver to the other all instruments that may be required to effectuate the provisions of this Section. 
 21.5 Sale Under Threat of Condemnation. A sale made in good faith by Landlord to any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation
proceedings are pending, shall be deemed a taking under the power of eminent domain for all purposes of this Section. 

  
 23 









 ARTICLE 22 
 SURRENDER OF LEASE 
 22.1 Surrender of Lease. The
voluntary or other surrender of its interest in this Lease by Tenant or a mutual cancellation of this Lease shall not work a merger, and shall, at the election of Landlord, either terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or operate as
an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subleases or subtenancies. Landlord shall exercise its election within thirty (30) days of any such surrender or cancellation. 

ARTICLE 23 

ATTORNEYS’ FEES 
 23.1 Attorneys’ Fees. If either party institutes or is made a party to any action or proceeding to enforce or interpret this Lease, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be

 ARTICLE 24 
 SALE OF THE PREMISES BY LANDLORD 

24.1 Sale of Premises. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord may assign, in whole
or in part, Landlord’s interest in this Lease and may sell all or part of the real estate of which the Premises are a part. In the event of any sale or exchange of the Premises by Landlord and assignment by Landlord of this Lease, without the
need for the execution of any additional documents, provided the transferee assumes all of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall be and is hereby entirely freed and relieved of all liability under any and all covenants and
obligations contained in or derived from this Lease or arising out of any act, occurrence or omission relating to the Premises which occurs after the consummation of such sale, exchange, or assignment. 

ARTICLE 25

 26.1
Tenant Estoppel Certificate. Tenant shall at any time during the term of this Lease, within fifteen (15) days of written notice from Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is

Tenant’s knowledge concerning any uncured defaults with respect to Landlord’s obligations under this Lease and the nature of such defaults if they are claimed, and such other matters as Landlord may reasonably request. Any such statement
may be relied upon conclusively by any purchaser or lender having an interest in the Premises. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statements within such time shall be conclusive upon the Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, except
as and to the extent any modification has been represented by Landlord, and that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance, and that not more than one (1) month’s rent has been paid in advance. In addition, within

between the parties with respect to the Premises; (d) the date to which rent has been paid, (e) the unexpired term of this Lease, and (f) it is intended that any Landlord’s statement may be relied upon by a prospective purchaser
or lender of or investor in Tenant. 
 26.2 Tenant Financial Statements. Should Tenant no longer be a
publically held company with publically filed financial statements, then within ten (10) days after written request from Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord such financial statements as Landlord reasonably requires (but not more often
than once per calendar year) verifying the financial condition of Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant. In addition, Tenant shall deliver to any lender designated by Landlord any financial statements required by such lender to facilitate the financing
or refinancing of the Premises. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that each such financial statement is a true and accurate statement in all material respects as of the date of such statements. All financial statements shall be confidential
and shall be used only for the purposes set forth in this Lease. 
 ARTICLE 27 

SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT 
 27.1 Subordination of Lease. This Lease and Tenant’s rights under this Lease are subject and subordinate to any Mortgage, ground lease, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations,
replacements, or extensions thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Premises, provided Tenant obtains reasonable non-disturbance protection from any lender or ground lessor. The provisions of this Section shall be self-operative, and no further
instrument of subordination 

  
 25 









 
shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, however, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver any instruments that Landlord, the holder of any Mortgage, or the Landlord of any
ground lease may request to evidence such subordination. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver any such instruments, Tenant irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord as Tenant’s special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such
instruments. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant within sixty (60) days following the mutual execution and delivery of this Lease, a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement from any existing lender or ground
lessor of Landlord. 
 27.2 Attornment to Lender. If the holder of any Mortgage, or the Landlord of any
ground lease affecting the Premises, shall hereafter succeed, by foreclosure or otherwise, to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such successor as Tenant’s Landlord under this Lease, and shall promptly
execute and deliver any instruments that may be necessary to evidence such attornment, and Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant’s special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such instruments on behalf of Tenant should
Tenant refuse or fail to do so. Upon such attornment, this Lease shall continue in effect as a direct lease between such successor Landlord and Tenant upon and subject to all of the provisions of this Lease. 

ARTICLE 28 

HOLDING OVER 
 28.1 Holding Over. If Tenant should remain in possession of the Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease without executing a new lease or after Landlord has declared a forfeiture by
reason of a default by Tenant, the such holding over shall be construed as a tenancy from month-to-month, subject to all the conditions, provisions and obligations of this Lease insofar as they are applicable to a month-to-month tenancy. 

ARTICLE 29 

MORTGAGEE PROTECTION 
 29.1 Mortgagee Protection. In the event of any default on the part of Landlord, Tenant agrees to give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgage

 ARTICLE 31 

EASEMENTS 
 31.1 Easements. Landlord reserves the right, from time to time, to grant such easements, rights and dedications that Landlord deems necessary or desirable, and to cause the recordation of parcel
maps and restrictions, so long as such easements, rights, dedications, maps and restrictions do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Tenant. Tenant shall sign any documents or instruments to accomplish the foregoing upon
request of Landlord (at no cost or expense or liability to Tenant), and failure to do so shall constitute a material breach of this Lease. Tenant irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant’s special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such
documents or instructions on behalf of Tenant should Tenant refuse or fail to do so. 
 ARTICLE 32 

COVENANTS, CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS 
 32.1 Compliance with Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions. In addition to requirements imposed by law, the care of the Premises and conduct of business thereupon, among other things, are

reference. Tenant has received a copy of all applicable CC&R’s prior to its execution of this Lease, and such receipt is acknowledged hereby. 
 32.2 Associations. Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with the provisions of all applicable CC&R’s, and all modifications and additions which may from time to time be enacted
pursuant to their terms (and, with respect to any such modifications, at no additional cost, expense or liability to Tenant). Tenant shall similarly observe and comply with all requests, demand and orders otherwise made by any governing associations
created under the authority of the CC&R’s (the “Associations”). Any violation of the CC&R’s or orders of the Associations created thereby shall be a default under this Lease. However, Landlord will not be responsible to
Tenant for the nonperformance of any provisions of such CC&R’s by its tenants occupying neighboring properties, if any. 

  
 27 









 32.3 Association Fees. All payments, charge, dues, and assessments
imposed under the authority of the CC&R’s and the Associations (“Association Fees”) shall be paid by Landlord and included as part of the common area operating expenses paid by Tenant pursuant to Article 13.

Tenant’s violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant or its Subtenants shall have the right to use Hazardous Materials in the ordinary course of business and in compliance with all Hazardous Materials Laws,
under circumstances where no liability under any Hazardous Materials Laws could reasonably be anticipated.

regarding Hazardous Materials and with such insurers’ recommendations based upon prudent industry practices regarding management of Hazardous Materials. 
 34.2.3 Notice; Reporting. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing immediately after any of the following: (a) Tenant has knowledge, or has reasonable cause to believe, that any Hazardous

with any breach of any provision of this Lease directly or indirectly arising out of the use, generation, storage, release, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials by Tenant or any Subtenant, or their respective agents, contractors,
employees, licensees, or invitees and/or trespassers upon the Premises (but not by Landlord, its agents, contractors, employees, licensees or invitees), on, under or about the Premises during the Term, including, but not limited to, all foreseeable
and unforeseeable consequential damages and the cost of any Remedial Work. Neither the consent by Landlord to the use, generation, storage, release, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials, nor strict compliance with all Hazardous
Materials Laws, shall excuse Tenant from Tenant’s indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 34.2.6. The foregoing indemnity shall be in addition to and not a limitation of the indemnification provisions of Section 9 of this
Lease. Tenant’s obligations pursuant to this Section 34.2.6 shall survive the termination or expiration of the Lease. 
 34.2.7 Default. The release or discharge of any Hazardous Material or violation of any Hazardous Materials Law by Tenant or any Subtenant of Tenant shall be a material default by Tenant under the
Lease. In addition to or in lieu of the remedies available under the Lease as a result of such default, Landlord shall have the right, without terminating the Lease, to require Tenant to suspend its operations and activities on the Premises until
Landlord is satisfied that appropriate Remedial Work has been or is being adequately performed; Landlord’s election of this remedy shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord’s right thereafter to declare a default and pursue other remedies
set forth in the Lease. 
 34.3 Landlord’s Obligations. Except as set forth in the Existing
Phase I, Landlord represents and warrants that to the best of Landlord’s knowledge, as of the date of this Lease, the Premises and the Building are free of all Hazardous Materials. Except to the extent of any liability of Tenant under

arising out of or in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Materials currently existing in, under or about the Premises or released thereon by or on behalf of Landlord, including, but not limited to, all foreseeable and unforeseeable
consequential damages resulting therefrom. The foregoing indemnity shall be in addition to and not a limitation of the indemnification provisions of Section 9 of this Lease. Landlord’s obligations pursuant to this Section 34.3 shall
