d.Delivery Of Possession
/Early Occupancy.  Landlord shall deliver to Tenant, and Tenant shall accept, possession of the Leased Premises on the Delivery Date, in good, clean and working condition but otherwise in its then AS IS condition, subject only to: (a) Landlord’s completing, on or before the Lease Commencement Date, the Landlord’s Work described and defined in Paragraph 1 of the Work Letter attached as Exhibit D to and made a part of this Lease (the “Work Letter”), the terms and provisions of which are hereby incorporated into this Lease, (b)  any costs associated with ADA code compliance for the Building exterior, including “path of travel” requirements to the Building and the Leased Premises, will be Landlord’s sole expense and not passed through to Tenant throughout the Lease Term (“Landlord’s ADA Work”), and (c) Landlord shall repair, at its sole cost and expense, after receipt of Tenant’s written notice thereof, which notice must be delivered to Landlord within the first thirty (30) days after delivery of the Leased Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work completed, any defects or deficiencies (including non-compliance with applicable laws) of the roof of the Building and the Building operating systems on Levels C and D (such as, without limitation, HVAC, plumbing, electrical and life safety) which are not in good working order and/or non-compliant with applicable laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without in any way affecting the Delivery Date, Landlord agrees that following the full execution of this Lease, and Tenant’s delivery of all required insurance information, Tenant may enter the Leased Premises for the purpose of, and only for the purpose of, the planning and construction of the Tenant Improvements (as such term is defined in the Work Letter), and the installation of Tenant’s fixtures and equipment, all in furtherance of Tenant's intended operations from the Leased Premises ("Early Occupancy"). While Tenant shall not be required to pay Rent during the Early Occupancy, all other terms of this Lease, including, but not limited to Tenant’s obligations to carry all insurance required by the Lease, etc., shall be in effect during such Early Occupancy. It is acknowledged that the Early Occupancy may occur during a period that Landlord is performing the Landlord Work upon the Leased Premises, and Landlord and Tenant, and each of their employees, agents, contractors, consultants, workmen, mechanics, suppliers and invitees, shall cooperate reasonably to work in harmony with, and not unreasonably interfere with the work being performed by the other party; provided, however, that if Landlord in good faith determines that Tenant’s Early Occupancy is causing a delay in completion of the Landlord’s Work, Landlord may suspend or revoke Tenant’s Early Occupancy right upon three (3) business days’ prior written notice to Tenant, and if by the end of such notice period Tenant ceases causing such delay, such suspension or revocation shall be deemed withdrawn.  Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate (at Tenant’s sole cost) with Tenant as may be required in order for Tenant to obtain all permits and other approvals required by applicable governmental authorities in connection with the Tenant Improvements to be constructed by Tenant.

It is agreed that by accepting possession of the Leased Premises, Tenant formally accepts same and acknowledges that the Leased Premises are in the condition called for hereunder, subject only to Landlord’s completing the Landlord’s Work.  
f.Surrender Of Possession
.  Immediately prior to the expiration or upon the sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all of Tenant’s signs from the exterior of the Building and shall remove all of Tenant’s equipment, trade fixtures, furniture, supplies, wall decorations and other personal property from within the Leased Premises, the Building and the Common Areas, and shall vacate and surrender the Leased Premises, the Building, the Common Areas and the Property to Landlord in good broom clean condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted.  Tenant shall repair all damage to the Leased Premises, the exterior of the Building and the Common Areas caused by Tenant’s removal of Tenant’s property.  Tenant shall leave its telecommunications wiring and cabling labeled and/or coded sufficiently so that Landlord can readily determine the origin, destination and function of the wires and cables. Tenant shall patch and refinish, to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, all penetrations made by Tenant or its employees to the floor, walls or ceiling of the Leased Premises, whether such penetrations were made with Landlord’s approval or not.  To the extent not caused by Landlord’s lack of maintenance or repairs as required hereunder, Tenant shall repair or replace all stained or damaged ceiling tiles, wall coverings and floor coverings to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord.  Tenant shall repair all damage caused by Tenant to the exterior surface of the Building and the paved surfaces of the Common Areas and, where necessary, replace or resurface same.  In the event that the condition set forth in Paragraph 15.1(a) below is satisfied but the Term of this Lease is not extended as provided in Article 15, then, subject to the terms of Paragraph 6.1 below, Tenant shall be required to remove all Non-Standard Improvements (as defined below) and repair all damage caused by such removal, but shall not be required to remove any other alterations, modifications, or improvements.  As used herein, “Non-Standard Improvements” shall mean any alterations, modifications, or improvements that (i) affect any of the Building’s structures or materially affect any of the Building’s systems, or (ii) are visible from outside the Building, or (iii) contain Hazardous Materials (as defined in Paragraph 4.11 below), or (iv) are of a type or quantity that would not typically be installed by or for a typical tenant using space for the Permitted Use, and Non-Standard Improvements include, but are not limited to, the following: (A) raised floors, (B) voice, data, and other cabling, (C) specialty data center rooms, (D) libraries, (E) any areas requiring floor reinforcement or enhanced system requirements, (F) any internal staircase(s), (G) the portion of any fitness center exceeding ten thousand (10,000) square feet of the Leased Premises, and (H) any kitchen(s) exceeding one thousand five hundred (1,500) square feet; provided, however, in no event shall the term Non-Standard Improvements include any portion of Landlord’s Work and/or any portion of the Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall act reasonably in determining what alterations, modifications, or improvements constitute Non-Standard Improvements.  If the Leased Premises, the Building, the Common Areas and the Property are not surrendered to Landlord in the condition required by this paragraph at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Landlord may, at Tenant’s expense, so remove Tenant’s signs, property and/or improvements not so removed and make such repairs and replacements not so made or hire, at Tenant’s expense, independent contractors to perform such work.  Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord in returning the Leased Premises, the Building and the Common Areas to the required condition, together with interest on all costs so incurred from the date paid by Landlord at the Default Interest Rate until paid.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of all costs so incurred plus such interest thereon, within ten (10) days of Landlord’s billing Tenant for same.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may consent (in its sole and absolute discretion, which consent may be withheld for any reason or no reason) to accept a cash payment from Tenant in lieu of Tenant completing all or any portion of the work required pursuant to this paragraph, such consent to be in a written notice specifying the work from which Tenant shall be excused.  Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from delay by Tenant in surrendering the Leased Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding Tenant or any losses to Landlord with respect to lost opportunities to lease to succeeding tenants.
g.Accessibility
.  In accordance with California Civil Code Section 1938, Landlord hereby informs Tenant that as of the Effective Date of this Lease, the Building has not been inspected by a Certified Access Specialist (as defined in California Civil Code section 55.52(3)) (“CASp”).  Civil Code Section 1938(e) provides:
“A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the 
    4    

99090796v.12

subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises.”

Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually agree that if Tenant desires to obtain a CASP inspection, (i) the CASP inspection shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, (ii) the inspection shall be performed by a CASp that is currently certified in California and has been reasonably approved by Landlord, (iii) the CASp inspection shall take place during regular business hours with at least five (5) business day’s prior written notice to Landlord and shall not materially disrupt any of the other tenants within the Building, (iv) Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with a copy of the final report prepared in connection with the CASp inspection (the “CASp Report”), and (v) Tenant shall be solely responsible for promptly making any repair or modifications necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards that are noted in the CASp Report (the “Required Modifications”) and shall defend with competent counsel, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any claims, damages or liability resulting from Tenant’s failure to promptly make such repairs; except for the Landlord’s ADA Work referred to in Paragraph 2.4, above, which Landlord shall perform at Landlord’s sole cost and expense.  The Required Modifications shall not proceed until Landlord has approved in writing: (i) Tenant’s contractor, and (ii) complete and detailed plans and specifications for the Required Modifications.  The Required Modifications shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner in compliance with all of the terms of the Lease.  At Landlord’s sole discretion, Landlord may elect to complete the Required Modifications.  If Landlord elects to complete the Required Modifications, Landlord may forward invoices and bills for the expenses of the Required Modifications to Tenant, and Tenant shall, no later than ten (10) days prior to the due date, pay such invoices or bills and deliver satisfactory evidence of such payment to Landlord.  Alternatively, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any costs incurred by Landlord within ten (10) days of Landlord’s invoice therefor.
Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the CASp Report is to be kept strictly confidential, except as necessary for Tenant to complete repairs and correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards as noted in the CASp Report.  Accordingly, except as provided above or as may be required by law or court order, Tenant shall not release, publish or otherwise distribute (and shall not authorize or permit any other person or entity to release, publish or otherwise distribute) any information contained in the CASp Report.    Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

Article 3.
RENT, LATE CHARGES AND SECURITY DEPOSITS
a.Base Monthly Rent
.  Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date (as determined pursuant to Paragraph 2.3 above) and continuing throughout the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without prior demand therefor, in advance on the first day of each calendar month, cash or other immediately available good funds in the amount set forth as Base Monthly Rent in Article 1.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Base Monthly Rent shall be due or payable for each of the first five (5) months of the Lease Term.
b.Additional Rent
.  Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date (as determined pursuant to Paragraph 2.3 above) and continuing throughout the Lease Term, in addition to the Base Monthly Rent and to the extent not required by Landlord to be contracted for and paid directly by Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent (the “Additional Rent”), cash or other immediately available good funds in the following amounts:
(i)An amount equal to all Property Operating Expenses (as defined in Article 13) incurred or to be incurred by Landlord.  Landlord shall deliver to Tenant Landlord’s reasonable estimate of any given expense (such as Landlord’s Insurance Costs or Real Property Taxes), or group of expenses, which it anticipates will be paid or incurred for the ensuing calendar or fiscal year, as Landlord may determine, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the estimated amount of such expenses for such year in equal monthly installments during such year with the installments of Base Monthly Rent. Landlord reserves the right to revise such estimate from time to time.
(ii)Landlord’s share of the consideration received by Tenant upon certain assignments and sublettings as required by Article 7.
    5    

99090796v.12

(iii)Any legal fees and costs that Tenant is obligated to pay or reimburse to Landlord pursuant to Article 13; and
(iv)Any other charges or reimbursements due Landlord from Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease.
c.Year-End Adjustments
.  Landlord shall furnish to Tenant within four months following the end of the applicable calendar or fiscal year, as the case may be, a statement setting forth (i) the amount of such expenses paid or incurred during the just ended calendar or fiscal year, as appropriate, and (ii) the amount that Tenant has paid to Landlord for credit against such expenses for such period.  If Tenant shall have paid more than its obligation for such expenses for the stated period, Landlord shall, at its election, either (i) credit the amount of such overpayment toward the next ensuing payment or payments of Additional Rent that would otherwise be due unless the Lease has expired or terminated in which case subsection (ii) as follows shall apply, or (ii) refund in cash to Tenant the amount of such overpayment.  If such year-end statement shall show that Tenant did not pay its obligation for such expenses in full, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such underpayment within thirty (30) days from Landlord’s billing of same to Tenant.  The provisions of this Paragraph shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
d.Late Charge, And Interest On Rent In Default
.  Tenant acknowledges that the late payment by Tenant of any monthly installment of Base Monthly Rent or any Additional Rent will cause Landlord to incur certain costs and expenses not contemplated under this Lease, the exact amounts of which are extremely difficult or impractical to fix.  Such costs and expenses will include without limitation, administration and collection costs and processing and accounting expenses.  Therefore, if any installment of Base Monthly Rent is not received by Landlord from Tenant within five (5) calendar days after the same becomes due, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a late charge in an amount equal to the amount set forth in Article 1 as the “Late Charge Amount,” and in addition if any Additional Rent is not received by Landlord within five (5) calendar days after the same becomes due, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a late charge in an amount equal to 5% of the Additional Rent not so paid.  Landlord and Tenant agree that this late charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is fair compensation to Landlord for the anticipated loss Landlord would suffer by reason of Tenant’s failure to make timely payment.  In no event shall this provision for a late charge be deemed to grant to Tenant a grace period or extension of time within which to pay any rental installment or prevent Landlord from exercising any right or remedy available to Landlord upon Tenant’s failure to pay each rental installment due under this Lease when due, including the right to terminate this Lease.  If any rent remains delinquent for a period in excess of five (5) calendar days, then, in addition to such late charge, Tenant shall pay to Landlord interest on any rent that is not so paid from said fifth (5th) day at the Default Interest Rate until paid.  Regardless of the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to one (1) written five (5) day notice to cure during each calendar year prior to a late charge becoming due, and prior to interest accruing, and such Late Charge Amount shall not be due, nor shall interest accrue, if Tenant so cures within such five (5) day period.
e.Payment Of Rent
.  Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Lease, all rent shall be paid in lawful money of the United States, without any abatement, reduction or offset for any reason whatsoever, to Landlord at such address as Landlord may designate from time to time.  Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Monthly Rent and all Additional Rent shall be appropriately prorated at the commencement and expiration of the Lease Term.  The failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Rent as required pursuant to this Lease when due shall be treated the same as a failure by Tenant to pay Base Monthly Rent when due, and Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies against Tenant as Landlord would have had Tenant failed to pay the Base Monthly Rent when due. 
f.Prepaid Rent
.  Tenant shall, upon the Lease Commencement Date, pay to Landlord the amount set forth in Article 1 as First Month’s Prepaid Rent, as prepayment of rent for credit against the first installment  of Base Monthly Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder.
g.Security Deposit
.  Tenant shall deposit concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, with Landlord the amount set forth in Article 1 as the Security Deposit as security for the performance by Tenant of the terms of this Lease to be performed by Tenant, and not as prepayment of rent.  Tenant hereby grants to 
    6    

99090796v.12

Landlord a security interest in the Security Deposit, including but not limited to replenishments thereof.  Landlord may apply such portion or portions of the Security Deposit as are reasonably necessary for the following purposes: (i) to remedy any default by Tenant in the payment of Base Monthly Rent or Additional Rent or a late charge or interest on defaulted rent, or any other monetary payment obligation of Tenant under this Lease; (ii) to repair damage to the Leased Premises, the Building or the Common Areas caused or permitted to occur by Tenant; (iii) to clean and restore and repair the Leased Premises, the Building or the Common Areas following their surrender to Landlord if not surrendered in the condition required pursuant to the provisions of Article 2; (iv) to remedy any other default of Tenant including, without limitation, paying in full on Tenant’s behalf any sums claimed by materialmen or contractors of Tenant to be owing to them by Tenant for work done or improvements made at Tenant’s request to the Leased Premises; and (v) to cover any other expense, loss or damage which Landlord may at any time suffer due to Tenant’s default.  In this regard, Tenant hereby waives any restriction on the uses to which the Security Deposit may be applied as contained in Section 1950.7(c) of the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute.  In the event the Security Deposit or any portion thereof is so used, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, promptly upon demand, an amount in cash sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the full original sum.  Landlord, at Tenant’s expense, shall open an interest bearing trust account into which the Security Deposit shall be deposited, and all interest earned on the Security Deposit funds shall be for the account of Tenant and shall be distributed out of such account on an annual basis promptly following Tenant’s written request which request may be made upon or after each anniversary of the Lease Commencement Date (provided, however, in no event shall any such distribution of interest to Tenant cause the total funds in such account to be less than the amount of the Security Deposit).  Landlord has advised Tenant that Landlord is qualified and operates, and intends to continue to qualify and operate, as a “real estate investment trust” within the meaning of Section 856 et. seq. of the Code (a “REIT”) for federal income tax purposes, and therefore Tenant shall cooperate such that the interest earned on the Security Deposit is not credited to Landlord so Landlord will be in compliance with REIT regulations.  The Security Deposit shall not be used in Landlord’s ordinary business and shall be segregated from Landlord’s general accounts as noted hereinabove.  If Landlord transfers the Building or the Property during the Lease Term, Landlord shall pay or credit the Security Deposit (and any interest accrued thereon and not yet disbursed to Tenant) to any subsequent owner in conformity with the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute, in which event the transferring landlord shall be released from all liability for the return of the Security Deposit.  Tenant specifically grants to Landlord (and Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 to the contrary) a period of sixty (60) days following a surrender of the Leased Premises by Tenant to Landlord within which to inspect the Leased Premises, make required restorations and repairs, receive and verify workmen’s billings therefor, cure any other defaults, deduct any damages, and prepare a final accounting with respect to the Security Deposit.  In no event shall the Security Deposit or any portion thereof, be considered prepaid rent.  Provided that on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Lease Commencement Date Tenant’s net worth is equal to or greater than Tenant’s Net Worth at the time this Lease is entered into, the Security Deposit shall be reduced to $7,174,533.75. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant’s request for such reduction by reviewing Tenant’s financials pursuant to publicly available information within ten (10) days of Tenant’s request and promptly (not later than 10 days after request) refunding Tenant the sum of $4,304,720.25 (together with any then undistributed interest earned on the Security Deposit) such that Landlord thereafter holds a Security Deposit in the amount of $7,174,533.75.
Article 4.

Landlord shall cause such trash, garbage and waste to be regularly removed from the trash bins/garbage disposal facilities and the Property.  Subject to the foregoing removal obligation of Landlord, Tenant shall keep the interior of the Leased Premises in a clean, safe and neat condition and shall keep the Common Areas free and clear of all of Tenant’s trash, garbage, waste and/or boxes, pallets and containers containing same at all times.

Tenant agrees to assume responsibility for compliance by the Tenant Parties with the parking provisions contained herein.  Landlord reserves the right to grant easements and access rights to others for use of the parking areas on the Property, provided that such grants do not reduce the number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant in Article 1.

.  Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Paragraph 4.6, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall:  (i) be entitled to the maximum pro-rata share of monument signage, and (ii) on the exterior of Levels C and D, be entitled to the maximum pro-rata share of Building signage (in the event Tenant becomes the sole occupant of Levels A and/or B, such rights shall also extend to the exterior of such additional levels that Tenant becomes the sole occupant of), in each case (i) and (ii), to the extent 
    8    

99090796v.12

Such monument signage shall be approximately as depicted on Exhibit E, to the extent approved by the City of Palo Alto and the Ground Lessor.  The cost to construct a new monument sign on the Property, if applicable, shall be at Landlord’s sole cost and not a Property Operating Expense.  The size, location, and configuration of all signage shall be subject to Landlord’s building standards and its prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and shall be governed by and subject to the rules, regulations and permit requirements of the City of Palo Alto and the Ground Lessor.

Tenant shall not place or install on or within any portion of the Leased Premises, the exterior of the Building, the Common Areas or the Property any business identification sign which is visible from the exterior of the Leased Premises until Landlord shall have approved in writing and in its reasonable discretion the location, size, content, design, method of attachment and material to be used in the making of such sign; provided, however, that so long as such signs are normal and customary business directional or identification signs within the Building, Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord’s approval.  Any sign, once approved by Landlord, shall be installed at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and only in strict compliance with Landlord’s approval and any applicable Laws and Restrictions, using a person reasonably approved by Landlord to install same.

Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. 
h.Compliance With Insurance Requirements
.  With respect to any insurance policies required or permitted to be carried by Landlord in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall not conduct nor permit any other person to conduct any activities nor keep, store or use (or allow any other person to keep, store or use) any item or thing within the Leased Premises, the Building, the Common Areas or the Property which (i) is prohibited under the terms of any such policies, (ii) could result in the termination of the coverage afforded under any of such policies, (iii) could give to the insurance carrier the right to cancel any of such policies, or (iv) could cause an increase in the rates (over standard rates) charged for the coverage afforded under any of such policies.  Tenant shall comply with all requirements of any insurance company, insurance underwriter, or Board of Fire Underwriters which are necessary to maintain, at standard rates, the insurance coverages carried by either Landlord or Tenant pursuant to this Lease.

    9    

99090796v.12

in monetary or material non-monetary default, tenants; (iii) making necessary alterations, additions or repairs; and (iv) performing any of Tenant’s obligations when Tenant has failed to do so.  Landlord shall have the right to enter the Leased Premises during normal business hours (or as otherwise agreed), subject to Tenant’s reasonable security measures, for purposes of supplying any maintenance or services agreed to be supplied by Landlord.  Landlord shall also have the right, upon reasonable advance written notice to Tenant, to access the Building’s vertical risers and the interstitial space above Tenant’s acoustical ceiling to connect new utility and communications lines from other floors to the base Building utility lines.  Landlord shall have the right to enter the Common Areas during normal business hours for purposes of (i) inspecting the exterior of the Building and the Common Areas; (ii) posting notices of nonresponsibility (and for such purposes Tenant shall provide Landlord at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of any work to be performed on the Leased Premises, as well as notice within one (1) day after the commencement of such work); and (iii) supplying any services to be provided by Landlord.  Any entry into the Leased Premises or the Common Areas obtained by Landlord in accordance with this paragraph shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Leased Premises, or an eviction, actual or constructive of Tenant from the Leased Premises or any portion thereof. Landlord agrees to exercise the foregoing rights in a manner to attempt to minimize unreasonable interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises.
j.Use Of Common Areas
.  Tenant, in its use of the Common Areas, shall at all times keep the Common Areas in a safe condition free and clear of all materials, equipment, debris, trash (except within existing enclosed trash areas), inoperable vehicles, and other items which are not specifically permitted by Landlord to be stored or located thereon by Tenant.  If, in the opinion of Landlord, unauthorized persons are using any of the Common Areas by reason of, or under claim of, the express or implied authority or consent of Tenant, then Tenant, upon demand of Landlord, shall restrain, to the fullest extent then allowed by Law, such unauthorized use, and shall initiate such appropriate proceedings as may be required to so restrain such use.  Landlord reserves the right to grant easements and access rights to others for use of the Common Areas and shall not be liable to Tenant for any diminution in Tenant’s right to use the Common Areas as a result, provided such easements do not reduce the number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant in Article 1 or materially and negatively impact Tenant’s access to the Leased Premises or rights to use the Common Area.
k.Environmental Protection
.  Tenant’s obligations under this Paragraph 4.11 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
(i)As used herein, the term “Hazardous Materials” shall mean any toxic or hazardous substance, material or waste or any pollutant or infectious or radioactive material, including but not limited to those substances, materials or wastes regulated now or in the future under any of the following statutes or regulations and any and all of those substances included within the definitions of “hazardous substances,” “hazardous materials,” “hazardous waste,” “hazardous chemical substance or mixture,” “imminently hazardous chemical substance or mixture,” “toxic substances,” “hazardous air pollutant,” “toxic pollutant,” or “solid waste” in the (a) Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1990 (“CERCLA” or “Superfund”), as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (“SARA”), 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq., (b) Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (“RCRA”), 42 U.S.C. § 6901 et seq., (c) Federal Water Pollution Control Act (“FSPCA”), 33 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq., (d) Clean Air Act (“CAA”), 42 U.S.C. § 7401 et seq., (e) Toxic Substances Control Act (“TSCA”), 14 U.S.C. § 2601 et seq., (f) Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C. § 1801, et seq., (g) Carpenter-Presley-Tanner Hazardous Substance Account Act (“California Superfund”), Cal.

(ii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant, at its sole cost, shall comply with, and shall cause the Tenant Parties to comply with, all Laws relating to its/their storage, use and disposal of Hazardous Materials at the Property; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be responsible for contamination of the Leased Premises and/or the Building or the Property unless caused by Tenant or the Tenant Parties.  Tenant shall not store, use or dispose of any Hazardous Materials except for those Hazardous Materials listed in the Hazardous Materials management plan (“HMMP”) attached hereto as Exhibit F which Tenant shall update at least annually with Landlord if there are any changes to such plan (“Permitted Materials”) which may be used, stored and disposed of provided (i) such Permitted Materials are used, stored, transported, and disposed of in strict compliance with applicable laws, (ii) such Permitted Materials shall be limited to the materials listed on and may be used only in the quantities specified in the HMMP, and (iii) Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of all material safety data sheets and other documentation required under applicable Laws in connection with Tenant’s use of Permitted Materials as and when such documentation is provided to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction.

Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall defend, indemnify, and hold Landlord and its agents harmless from and against all claims, costs and liabilities, including attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in connection with Tenant’s storage, use and/or disposal of Hazardous Materials.  If the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Leased Premises caused by Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties results in contamination or deterioration of water or soil, then Tenant shall promptly take any and all action necessary to clean up such contamination, but the foregoing shall in no event be deemed to constitute permission by Landlord to allow the presence of such Hazardous Materials.  Tenant shall further be solely responsible for, and shall defend, indemnify, and hold Landlord and its agents harmless from and against all claims, costs and liabilities, including attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in connection with any removal, cleanup and restoration work and materials required hereunder to return the Leased Premises and any other property of whatever nature to their condition existing prior to the appearance of the Hazardous Materials, to the extent such Hazardous Materials were introduced to the Property by Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties. Likewise, Landlord shall be solely responsible for, and shall defend, indemnify, and hold Tenant and its agents harmless from and against all claims, costs and liabilities, including attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in connection with any Hazardous Materials, to the extent such Hazardous Materials were introduced to the Property by Landlord or its employees, agents and/or contractors.
(iii)Upon termination or expiration of the Lease Term, Tenant at its sole expense shall cause all Hazardous Materials placed in or about the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property by Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties, and all installations (whether interior or exterior) made by or on behalf of Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties relating to the storage, use, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials to be removed from the property and transported for use, storage or disposal in accordance and compliance with all Laws and other requirements respecting Hazardous Materials used or permitted to be used by Tenant.

1.Tenant’s occupancy of the Leased Premises is subject to the terms, provisions, and requirements of the Ground Lease.  Tenant shall comply with such terms, provisions, and requirements at all times and shall not conduct any activities or permit any activities to be conducted which would constitute a breach of the Ground Lease.  Whenever in this Lease the consent or approval of Landlord or a governmental agency is required, the consent of Ground Lessor shall also be deemed required if and to the extent Ground Lessor’s consent would be required under the Ground Lease if such actions were taken by Landlord, and there shall be no “deemed consent” of Ground Lessor under this Lease, notwithstanding that Landlord’s consent may be deemed given in certain circumstances expressly set forth herein.  
2.This Lease and the parties’ obligations hereunder are subject to the receipt of the consent and nondisturbance agreement of the Ground Lessor (collectively, the “Ground Lessor’s Consent”) within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date of this Lease. The nondisturbance agreement shall provide that, so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable cure period, its right to possession and the other terms of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding a default under, or termination of, the Ground Lease(s). Within two (2) business days after full execution of this Lease by Landlord and Tenant, Landlord will provide a fully executed copy to Ground Lessor and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Ground Lessor’s Consent, and in connection therewith shall request and use diligent efforts to have Ground Lessor include a nondisturbance agreement providing that, so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable cure period, its right to possession of the Leased Premises and the other terms of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding a default by Landlord under, or termination of, the Ground Lease.  Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Ground Lessor is not obligated to provide the foregoing nondisturbance protection and that Ground Lessor’s common practice is to provide such protection only to Landlord’s lender, not to Landlord’s sublessees.  Landlord shall be solely responsible for any fees or costs charged by the Ground Lessor in connection with the granting of the Ground Lessor’s Consent.  If Ground Lessor refuses to provide the Ground Lessor’s Consent within such 30-day period in a form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the ongoing right to terminate this Lease by providing at least a ten (10) day written notice of termination after the expiration of such 30-day period (unless the Ground Lessor’s Consent has been delivered prior to Tenant’s or Landlord’s notice of termination).  In the event this Lease is so terminated, such termination shall be effective upon the expiration of such written notice of termination, provided that any such written notice of termination shall be deemed null and void in the event the Ground Lessor’s Consent has been delivered prior to the expiration of such ten (10) day written notice of termination.  Tenant (a) acknowledges that as a condition to obtaining the Ground Lessor’s Consent, Tenant will be required to release Ground Lessor with respect to the environmental condition of the Property by signing the Ground Lessor’s Consent, which will contain a release substantially in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto, and (b) agrees to so release Ground Lessor.  If there is a conflict between the requirements of the Ground Lease and of this Lease such that compliance with this Lease would result in a breach of the Ground Lease or compliance with the Ground Lease would result in a breach of this Lease, the Ground Lease shall be controlling; otherwise, as between Landlord and Tenant, the terms of this Lease shall prevail over any inconsistent terms of the Ground Lease.  Landlord shall not terminate the Ground Lease, or take any action or fail to take any action that would result in a termination of the Ground Lease, during the Term of this Lease; and Landlord shall not enter into any modification of the Ground Lease without first obtaining the prior written consent of Tenant In the event any such modification of the Ground Lease would materially interfere with the use or occupancy of the Leased Premises for the conduct of Tenant’s business or materially increase Tenant’s costs under this Lease or in connection with the use and occupancy of the Leased Premises.

Landlord agrees that it will provide notice of any such programs to Tenant and will not enforce these obligations in a 
    13    

99090796v.12

discriminatory manner.  To the extent required by Law, or the Ground Lessor (to the extent allowed by the Ground Lease), such programs may include, without limitation:  (a) restrictions on the number of peak-hour vehicle trips and single occupancy vehicle trips generated by Tenant; (b) increased vehicle occupancy; (c) implementation of an in-house ridesharing program and an employee transportation coordinator; (d) working with employees and any Property, the Building, or area-wide ridesharing program manager; (e) instituting employer-sponsored incentives (financial or in-kind) to encourage employees to rideshare; and (f) utilizing flexible work shifts for employees.

Upon Landlord’s request from time to time, Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with a statement certified by the Tenant’s chief executive officer or chief financial officer, which shall provide the following information: (a) the names of all of Tenant’s shareholders and their ownership interests at the time thereof, provided Tenant’s shares are not publicly traded; (b) the state in which Tenant is incorporated; (c) the location of Tenant’s principal place of business; (d) information regarding a material change in the corporate structure of Tenant, including, without limitation, a merger or consolidation; and (e) any other information regarding Tenant’s ownership that Landlord reasonably requests.  Subject to the final sentence of this Paragraph 7.2, in the event of an acquisition by one entity of a controlling percentage of Tenant where this Lease is not assigned to and assumed in full by such entity, it shall be a condition to Landlord’s consent to such change in control that such entity acquiring the controlling percentage assume, as a primary obligor, all rights and obligations of Tenant under this Lease (and such entity shall execute all documents reasonably required to effectuate such assumption).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees that the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 7.2 shall not be applicable as long as the common stock of Tenant and its assigns permitted pursuant to this Lease or otherwise approved by Landlord in writing are publicly-traded on a United States national stock exchange, and such assigns have market capitalizations equal to or greater than that of Tenant and operations histories equal to or longer than that of Tenant. 
c.Landlord’s Election
.  If Tenant shall desire to assign its interest under this Lease or to sublet the Leased Premises, Tenant must first notify Landlord, in writing, of its intent to so assign or sublet, at least thirty (30) days in advance of taking any action with respect thereto. Once Tenant (or Landlord or both pursuant to the joint marketing election described below) has identified a potential assignee or sublessee, Tenant shall notify Landlord, in writing, of its intent to so assign or sublet, at least thirty (30) days in advance of the date it intends to so assign its interest in this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises but not sooner than one hundred eighty (180) days in advance of such date, specifying in detail the terms of such proposed assignment or subletting, including the name of the proposed assignee or sublessee, the proposed assignee’s or sublessee’s intended use of the Leased Premises, current financial statements (including a balance sheet, income statement and statement of cash flow, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) of such proposed assignee or sublessee, the form of documents to be used in effectuating such assignment or subletting and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request within two (2) business days of Landlord’s receipt of such notice of such intended transaction. Landlord shall have a period of ten (10) business days following receipt of such notice and the required information within which to do one of the following: (i) consent to such requested assignment or subletting subject to Tenant’s compliance with the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7.4 below, or (ii) refuse to so consent to such requested assignment or subletting and the specific reasons therefor, provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably refused, or (iii) terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Leased Premises as is the subject of the proposed assignment or subletting if the intended transaction was either a proposed assignment of the entire Lease or a proposed subletting for a term that is equal to all or substantially all of the then remaining Lease Term which, when aggregated with all other subleases then in effect, would cover more than fifty percent (50%) of the Leased Premises (such termination to be effective either (A) on the date specified in Tenant’s notice as the intended effective date of the assignment or subletting, or (B) on such tenth (10th) business day after receipt of Tenant’s notice, at Landlord’s option).  During such ten (10) business day period, Tenant covenants and agrees to supply to Landlord, upon request, all necessary or relevant information which Landlord may reasonably request respecting such proposed assignment or subletting and/or the proposed assignee or sublessee. In the event of an election by Landlord under clause (iii) above, Landlord shall have the right to enter into a direct lease with the proposed assignee or sublessee without payment of any consideration to Tenant; provided, however, within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of any notice by Landlord under clause (iii) above electing to terminate this Lease, Tenant may withdraw its request for the assignment or subletting by written notice to Landlord.  In addition, in the event Tenant desires to sublease all or a portion of the Leased Premises, Landlord shall have the right to elect to jointly market with Tenant the applicable portion (including all if applicable) of the Leased Premises for subleasing and/or direct leasing, such joint marketing election to be made, if at all, in writing and delivered to Tenant during the thirty (30) day period described in the first sentence of this Paragraph 7.3.
d.Conditions To Landlord’s Consent
.  If Landlord elects to consent, or shall have been ordered to so consent by a court of competent jurisdiction, to such requested assignment or subletting, such consent shall be expressly conditioned upon the occurrence of each of the conditions below set forth, and any purported assignment or subletting made or ordered prior to the full and complete satisfaction of each of the following conditions shall be void and, at the election of Landlord, which election may be exercised at any time following such a purported 
    19    

99090796v.12

assignment or subletting but prior to the satisfaction of each of the stated conditions, shall constitute a material default by Tenant under this Lease until cured by satisfying in full each such condition by the assignee or sublessee.  The conditions are as follows:
22.Landlord having approved in form and substance the assignment or sublease agreement and any ancillary documents which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by Landlord if the requirements of this Article 7 are otherwise complied with.
23.Each such sublessee or assignee having agreed, in writing satisfactory to Landlord and its counsel and for the benefit of Landlord, to assume, to be bound by, and to perform the obligations of this Lease to be performed by Tenant which relate to space being subleased from and after the date of such sublease or assignment.
24.Tenant having fully and completely performed all of its obligations under the terms of this Lease through and including the date of such assignment or subletting.
25.Tenant having reimbursed to Landlord all reasonable costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any such requested subletting or assignment. Tenant shall be obligated to so reimburse Landlord whether or not such subletting or assignment is completed.
26.Tenant having delivered to Landlord a complete and fully-executed duplicate original of such sublease agreement or assignment agreement (as applicable) and all related agreements.
27.Tenant having paid, or having agreed in writing to pay as to future payments, to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all assignment consideration or excess rentals to be paid to Tenant or to any other on Tenant’s behalf or for Tenant’s benefit for such assignment or subletting as follows:
i.If Tenant assigns its interest under this Lease and if all or a portion of the consideration for such assignment is to be paid by the assignee at the time of the assignment, that Tenant shall have paid to Landlord and Landlord shall have received an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the assignment consideration actually paid by the assignee; or
ii.If Tenant assigns its interest under this Lease and if Tenant is to receive all or a portion of the consideration for such assignment in future installments, that Tenant and Tenant’s assignee shall have entered into a written agreement with and for the benefit of Landlord satisfactory to Landlord and its counsel whereby Tenant and Tenant’s assignee jointly agree to pay to Landlord an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of all such future assignment consideration installments to be paid by such assignee as and when such assignment consideration is so paid; or
iii.If Tenant subleases the Leased Premises, that Tenant and Tenant’s sublessee shall have entered into a written agreement with and for the benefit of Landlord satisfactory to Landlord and its counsel whereby Tenant and Tenant’s sublessee jointly agree to pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all excess rentals as and when such excess rentals are so paid.
e.Assignment Consideration And Excess Rentals Defined
.  For purposes of this Article, including any amendment to this Article by way of addendum or other writing: (i) the term “assignment consideration” shall mean all consideration to be paid by the assignee to Tenant or to any other party on Tenant’s behalf or for Tenant’s benefit as consideration for such assignment, without deduction for any costs or expenses incurred by Tenant in connection with such assignment, except that Tenant may first deduct reasonable third party, market rate leasing commissions and attorneys’ fees paid in connection with the assignment, as well as construction costs and related design and permit fees incurred directly in connection with the assignment, and (ii) the term “excess rentals” shall mean all consideration to be paid by the sublessee to Tenant or to any other party on Tenant’s behalf or for Tenant’s benefit for the sublease of all or any part of the Leased Premises in excess of the rent due to Landlord under the terms of this Lease for the portion subleased for the same period, without deduction for any costs or expenses (including, without limitation, tenant improvements, capital improvements, building upgrades, permit fees, attorneys’ fees, and other consultants’ fees) incurred by Tenant in connection with such sublease, except that Tenant may first deduct reasonable third party, market rate leasing commissions and attorneys’ fees paid in connection with the sublease, as well as construction costs and related design and permit fees incurred directly in connection with the sublease.  Tenant agrees that the portion of any assignment consideration and/or excess rentals arising from any assignment or subletting by Tenant which is to be paid to Landlord pursuant to this Article now is and shall then be the property of Landlord and not the property of Tenant.
    20    

99090796v.12

f.Payments
.  All payments required by this Article to be made to Landlord shall be made in cash in full as and when they become due.  At the time Tenant, Tenant’s assignee or sublessee makes each such payment to Landlord, Tenant or Tenant’s assignee or sublessee, as the case may be, shall deliver to Landlord an itemized statement in reasonable detail showing the method by which the amount due Landlord was calculated and certified by the party making such payment as true and correct.
g.Good Faith
.  The rights granted to Tenant by this Article are granted in consideration of Tenant’s express covenant, which Tenant hereby makes, that all pertinent allocations which are made by Tenant between the rental value of the Leased Premises and the value of any of Tenant’s personal property which may be conveyed or leased (or services provided) generally concurrently with and which may reasonably be considered a part of the same transaction as the permitted assignment or subletting shall be made fairly, honestly and in good faith.  If Tenant shall breach this covenant, Landlord may immediately declare Tenant to be in default under the terms of this Lease and terminate this Lease and/or exercise any other rights and remedies Landlord would have under the terms of this Lease in the case of a material default by Tenant under this Lease.
h.Effect Of Landlord’s Consent
.  No subletting or assignment, even with the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its personal and primary obligation to pay rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder, and Tenant hereby agrees as follows in connection with any assignment of this Lease:   
28.The liability of Tenant under this Lease shall be primary, and in any right of action which shall accrue to Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, proceed against Tenant without having commenced any action or obtained any judgment against an assignee.  Tenant further agrees that it may be joined in any action against an assignee in connection with the said obligations of assignee and recovery may be had against Tenant in any such action.  Tenant hereby expressly waives the benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Sections 2821, 2839, 2847, 2848, 2849 and 2855 to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
29.If an assignee is in default of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord may proceed against either Tenant or the assignee, or both, or Landlord may enforce against Tenant or the assignee any rights that Landlord has under this Lease, in equity or under applicable law.  If this Lease terminates due to an assignee’s default or bankruptcy or similar debtor protection law, Landlord may enforce this Lease against Tenant, even if Landlord would be unable to enforce it against the assignee.  Tenant specifically agrees and understands that Landlord may proceed forthwith and immediately against an assignee or against Tenant following any default by an assignee.  Tenant hereby waives all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Sections 2845, 2848, 2849 and 2850, including without limitation: (i) the right to require Landlord to proceed against an assignee, proceed against or exhaust any security that Landlord holds from an assignee or pursue any other remedy in Landlord’s power; (ii) any defense to its obligations hereunder based on the termination or limitation of an assignee’s liability; and (iii) all notices of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional obligations.  Landlord shall have the right to enforce this Lease regardless of the release or discharge of an assignee by Landlord or by operation of any law relating to protection of debtors, bankruptcy, assignments for the benefit of creditors, or insolvency.
30.The obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant shall not be discharged or limited by any of the following events with respect to an assignee or Tenant:  (i) insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization arrangement, adjustment, composition, assignment for the benefits of creditors, liquidation, winding up or dissolution (each a “Financial Proceeding”); of (ii) any merger, acquisition, consolidation or change in entity structure, or any sale, lease, transfer, or other disposition of any entity’s assets, or any sale or other transfer of interests in the entity (each an “Event of Reorganization”); or (iii) any sale, exchange, assignment, hypothecation or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Landlord’s interest in the Leased Premises or this Lease.  Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant hereby expressly waives the benefits and defenses under any statute or judicial decision (including but not limited to the case styled In Re Arden, 176 F. 3d 1226 (9th Cir. 1999)) that would otherwise (i.e., were it not for such waiver) permit Tenant to claim or obtain the benefit of any so called “capped claim” available to an assignee in any Financial Proceeding.  If all or any portion of the obligations guaranteed hereunder are paid or performed and all or any part of such payment or performance is avoided or recovered, directly or indirectly, from Landlord as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, then Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect as to any such avoided or recovered payment or performance.
    21    

99090796v.12

31.The provisions of this Lease may be changed by agreement between Landlord and an assignee without the consent of or notice to Tenant, but Tenant shall not be liable to the extent such changes without its consent increase the Term of this Lease or increase the monetary obligations of such assignee.  This Lease may be assigned by Landlord or an assignee, and the Leased Premises, or a portion thereof, may be sublet by an assignee, all in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, without the consent of or notice to Tenant.  Tenant shall remain primarily liable for the performance of the Lease so assigned.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant waives the rights and benefits of California Civil Code Sections 2819 and 2820 with respect to any change to the Lease between Landlord and an assignee, and agrees that by doing so Tenant’s liability shall continue even if (i) Landlord and an assignee alter any Lease obligations, or (ii) Tenant’s remedies or rights against an assignee are impaired or suspended without Tenant’s consent by such alteration of Lease obligations.
Consent by Landlord to one or more assignments of Tenant’s interest in this Lease or to one or more sublettings of the Leased Premises shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.  No subtenant shall have any right to assign its sublease or to further sublet any portion of the sublet premises or to permit any portion of the sublet premises to be used or occupied by any other party. No sublease may be terminated or modified without Landlord’s prior written consent.  If Landlord shall have been ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction to consent to a requested assignment or subletting, or such an assignment or subletting shall have been ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction over the objection of Landlord, such assignment or subletting shall not be binding between the assignee (or sublessee) and Landlord until such time as all conditions set forth in Paragraph 7.4 above have been fully satisfied (to the extent not then satisfied) by the assignee or sublessee, including, without limitation, the payment to Landlord of all agreed assignment considerations and/or excess rentals then due Landlord.  Upon a default while a sublease is in effect, Landlord may collect directly from the sublessee all sums becoming due to Tenant under the sublease and apply this amount against any sums due Landlord by Tenant, and Tenant authorizes and directs any sublessee to make payments directly to Landlord upon notice from Landlord.  No direct collection by Landlord from any sublessee shall constitute a novation or release of Tenant or any guarantor, a consent to the sublease or a waiver of the covenant prohibiting subleases.  Landlord, as Tenant’s agent, may endorse any check, draft or other instrument payable to Tenant for sums due under a sublease, and apply the proceeds in accordance with this Lease; this agency is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
i.Permitted Transfers
.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the assignment or subletting by Tenant of all or any portion of this Lease or the Premises to (i) a parent of Tenant or a subsidiary of Tenant or Tenant’s parent, or (ii) any entity which is controlled and managed by Tenant or a parent of Tenant, or (iii) any entity which purchases all or substantially all of the assets, stock or other ownership interests of Tenant or Tenant’s parent, or (iv) any entity into which Tenant or Tenant’s parent is merged or consolidated (all such persons or entities described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) being or "Permitted Transferees" and such transactions sometimes herein referred to as a “Permitted Transfer” or “Permitted Transfers”) shall not be deemed an assignment, subletting or other transaction under this Article 7 requiring consent (hence, the aforesaid events shall not be subject to obtaining Landlord's prior consent); provided in all cases (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) that the successor entity, assignee or purchaser (a) has a net worth (calculated based on total liquid assets minus total liabilities) equal to or greater than the greater of (1) net worth of Tenant as of the effective date of the Permitted Transfer (also calculated based on total liquid assets minus total liabilities), or (2) the remaining Base Monthly Rent and estimated Property Operating Expenses payable over the remainder of the Lease Term multiplied by four (4), and (b) except in the case of an Permitted Transferee resulting from a merger or consolidation as described above where Tenant remains the surviving entity thereafter, assumes in writing, for the benefit of Landlord, this Lease and all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease; provided, however, it is agreed that the foregoing net worth requirement, and the foregoing requirement to assume all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, shall not be applicable to a Permitted Transferee that is a subtenant.  If any assignment occurs without such an assumption and/or if any assignment or subleasing occurs without Landlord’s consent in violation of the terms of this Article 7, Tenant shall be deemed for all purposes to be in material default under this Lease and the successor entity, assignee or purchaser (but not a subtenant) shall for all purposes be deemed to have unconditionally assumed in writing for the benefit of Landlord, this Lease and all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. In all events, Tenant shall remain fully liable under this Lease.  Landlord shall not have any right to receive any assignment consideration or excess rentals in connection with a Permitted Transfer, nor shall Landlord shall have the recapture/termination rights described above. Additionally, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 7, none of the following shall be considered an assignment, subletting or other transaction under this Article 7 requiring consent or be considered in determining whether a transfer of a controlling percentage has occurred: (i) any change in the ownership interests in Tenant resulting from the infusion of additional equity capital in Tenant, or an initial public offering of equity securities of Tenant that results in Tenant's 
    22    

99090796v.12

stock being traded on a national securities or over the counter market; (ii) any transfer or sale of the ownership interests in Tenant (whether voting or non-voting) (1) to the spouse(s) and/or children of a shareholder/member/partner of Tenant or Tenant’s parent, or (2) to any trust, the beneficiary(ies) of which are a shareholder/member/partner of Tenant or Tenant’s parent; and (iii) a transfer of stock or ownership interests among shareholders/members/partners of Tenant or Tenant’s parent existing as of the date of this Lease. 
Article 8.
LIMITATION ON LANDLORD’S LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY
a.Limitation On Landlord’s Liability And Release
.  Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for, and Tenant hereby releases and waives all claims and rights of recovery against Landlord and its partners, principals, members, managers, officers, agents, employees, lenders, attorneys, contractors, invitees, consultants, predecessors, successors and assigns (including without limitation prior and subsequent owners of the Property or portions thereof) (collectively, the “Landlord Indemnitees”) from, any and all liability, whether in contract, tort or on any other basis, for any injury to or any damage sustained by Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties, any damage to  property of Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties, or any loss to  business, loss of  profits or other financial loss of Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties resulting from or attributable to the condition of, the management of, the repair or maintenance of, the protection of, the supply of services or utilities to, the damage in or destruction of the Leased Premises, the Building, the Property or the Common Areas, including without limitation (i) the failure, interruption, rationing or other curtailment or cessation in the supply of electricity, water, gas or other utility service to the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises; (ii) the vandalism or forcible entry into the Building or the Leased Premises; (iii) the penetration of water into or onto any portion of the Leased Premises; (iv) the failure to provide security and/or adequate lighting in or about the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises, (v) the existence of any design or construction defects within the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises; (vi) the failure of any mechanical systems to function properly (such as the HVAC systems); (vii) the blockage of access to any portion of the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises, except that Tenant does not so release Landlord from such liability to the extent such damage was proximately caused by Landlord’s or its employees’, agents’ and/or contractors’ gross negligence, willful misconduct, or Landlord’s failure to perform an obligation expressly undertaken by Landlord pursuant to this Lease after a reasonable period of time shall have lapsed following receipt of written notice from Tenant to so perform such obligation.  In this regard, Tenant acknowledges that it is fully apprised of the provisions of Law relating to releases, and particularly to those provisions contained in Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows:
“A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”
Notwithstanding such statutory provision, and for the purpose of implementing a full and complete release and discharge, Tenant hereby (i) waives the benefit of such statutory provision and (ii) acknowledges that, subject to the exceptions specifically set forth herein, the release and discharge set forth in this paragraph is a full and complete settlement and release and discharge of all claims and is intended to include in its effect, without limitation, all claims which Tenant, as of the date hereof, does not know of or suspect to exist in its favor.

b.Tenant’s Indemnification Of Landlord
.  Tenant shall defend with competent counsel satisfactory to Landlord any claims made or legal actions filed or threatened against the Landlord Indemnitees with respect to the violation of any Law, or the death, bodily injury, personal injury, property damage, or interference with contractual or property rights suffered by any third party occurring within the Leased Premises or resulting from the use or occupancy by Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Common Areas, or resulting from the activities of Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties in or about the Leased Premises, the Building, the Common Areas or the Property, and Tenant shall indemnify and hold the Landlord Indemnitees harmless from any loss liability, penalties, or expense whatsoever (including any loss attributable to vacant space which otherwise would have been leased, but for such activities) resulting therefrom, except to the extent proximately caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its employees, agents and/or contractors.  This indemnity agreement shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

In the event Tenant does not maintain said insurance, Landlord may, in its sole discretion and without waiving any other remedies hereunder, procure said insurance and Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent the cost of said insurance plus a ten percent (10%) administrative fee.

38.Landlord may maintain any other insurance which in the opinion of its insurance broker, advisor or legal counsel is prudent to carry under the given circumstances, provided such insurance is commonly carried by owners of property similarly situated and operating under similar circumstances.

Article 10.
DAMAGE TO LEASED PREMISES

If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to either Paragraph 10.3 or 10.4, all insurance proceeds available from insurance carried by Tenant which cover loss to property that is Landlord’s property shall be paid to and become the property of Landlord, and all proceeds available from such insurance which cover loss to property which would only become the property of Landlord upon the termination of this Lease shall be paid to and remain the property of Tenant.  The determination of Landlord’s property and Tenant’s property shall be made pursuant to Paragraph 6.2.
c.Landlord’s Right To Terminate
.  Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease in the event any of the following occurs, which option may be exercised only by delivery to Tenant of a written notice of election to terminate within thirty (30) days after the date of such damage or destruction:
39.The Building is damaged by any peril covered by valid and collectible insurance actually carried by Landlord and in force at the time of such damage or destruction to such an extent that the estimated cost to restore the Building exceeds fifty percent of the then actual replacement cost thereof or cannot reasonably be substantially completed within twelve (12) months from and after the date the architect’s or construction consultant’s written opinion of the time to restore;  
40.The Building is damaged by an uninsured peril, which peril Landlord was not required to insure against pursuant to the provisions of Article 9 of this Lease, and the cost to restore the Building exceeds ten (10) percent of the then actual replacement cost of the Building; or
41.The Building is damaged by any peril and, because of the Laws or Restrictions then in force, the Building cannot be used for the Permitted Use.
d.Tenant’s Right To Terminate
.  If the Leased Premises, the Building or the Common Area are damaged by any peril and Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease or is not entitled to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Article, then as soon as reasonably practicable, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with the written opinion of Landlord’s architect or construction consultant as to when the restoration work required of Landlord with respect to the Leased Premises may be complete.  Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease (if Tenant is not then in default) in the event any of the following occurs, which option may be exercised only by delivery to Landlord of a written notice of election to terminate within twenty (20) days after Tenant receives from Landlord the estimate of the time needed to complete such restoration:
42.If the time estimated to substantially complete the restoration exceeds twelve months from and after the date the architect’s or construction consultant’s written opinion is delivered; or
43.If the damage occurred within twelve months of the last day of the Lease Term and the time estimated to substantially complete the restoration exceeds 1⁄4 of the remaining Term of the Lease from and after the date of such damage; or
44.The Building is damaged by any peril and, because of the Laws or Restrictions then in force, the Leased Premises cannot be used for the Permitted Use hereunder.

f.Abatement Of Rent

In the event of damage to the Leased Premises which does not result in the termination of this Lease, then the Base Monthly Rent (and any Additional Rent) shall be temporarily abated during the period  of Landlord’s and/or Tenant’s (as applicable) restoration, in proportion in the degree to which Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises (during the restoration period) is impaired by such damage.
Article 11.
CONDEMNATION
a.Tenant’s Right To Terminate
.  Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 11.4 below regarding temporary takings, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease if, as a result of any taking, (i) all of the Leased Premises is taken, (ii) twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Leased Premises is taken and the part of the Leased Premises that remains cannot, within a reasonable period of time, be made reasonably suitable for the continued operation of Tenant’s business, (iii) fifteen percent (15%) or more of the parking area is taken or so much of the parking area is taken that renders Tenant’s ongoing use of the Leased Premises illegal, or (iv) because of the Laws or Restrictions then in force, the Leased Premises may not be used for the Permitted Use.

Any such option to terminate by Landlord must be exercised within a reasonable period of time, to be effective as of the date possession is taken by the condemnor.
c.Restoration
.  If any part of the Leased Premises or the Building is taken and this Lease is not terminated, then Landlord shall, to the extent not prohibited by Laws or Restrictions then in force, repair any damage occasioned thereby to the remainder thereof to a condition reasonably suitable for Tenant’s continued operations and otherwise, to the extent practicable, in the manner and to the extent provided in Paragraph 10.1.
d.Temporary Taking
.  If a material portion of the Leased Premises is temporarily taken for a period of one year or less and such period does not extend beyond the Lease Expiration Date, this Lease shall remain in effect.

The rights of Landlord and Tenant regarding any condemnation shall be determined as provided in this Article, and each party hereby 
    27    

99090796v.12

waives the provisions of Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, and the provisions of any similar law hereinafter enacted, allowing either party to petition the Supreme Court to terminate this Lease and/or otherwise allocate condemnation awards between Landlord and Tenant in the event of a taking of the Leased Premises.
f.Abatement Of Rent
.  In the event of a taking of the Leased Premises which does not result in a termination of this Lease (other than a temporary taking), then, as of the date possession is taken by the condemning authority, the Base Monthly Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion that the area of that part of the Leased Premises so taken (less any addition to the area of the Leased Premises by reason of any reconstruction) bears to the area of the Leased Premises immediately prior to such taking.
g.Taking Defined
.  The term “taking” or “taken” as used in this Article 11 shall mean any transfer or conveyance of all or any portion of the Property to a public or quasi-public agency or other entity having the power of eminent domain pursuant to or as a result of the exercise of such power by such an agency, including any inverse condemnation and/or any sale or transfer by Landlord of all or any portion of the Property to such an agency under threat of condemnation or the exercise of such power.
Article 12.

48.(i) Tenant shall have sublet the Leased Premises or assigned or encumbered its interest in this Lease in violation of the provisions contained in Article 7, or (ii) any guarantor shall have assigned or delegated its rights or obligations under the applicable guaranty without first obtaining Landlord’s written consent if and as required by the terms of the applicable guaranty, in either case (i) or (ii), whether voluntarily or by operation of law; or
49.Tenant shall have abandoned the Leased Premises; or
50.Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease shall have permitted or suffered the sequestration or attachment of, or execution on, or the appointment of a custodian or receiver with respect to, all or any substantial part of the property or assets of Tenant (or such guarantor) or any property or asset essential to the conduct of Tenant’s (or such guarantor’s) business, and Tenant (or such guarantor) shall have failed to obtain a return or release of the same within thirty (30) days thereafter, or prior to sale pursuant to such sequestration, attachment or levy, whichever is earlier; or

53.Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease shall have availed itself of the protection of any debtor’s relief law, moratorium law or other similar law which does not require the prior entry of a decree or order.
b.Landlord’s Remedies
.  In the event of any default by Tenant, and without limiting Landlord’s right to indemnification as provided in Article 8.2, Landlord shall have the following remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by law or otherwise provided in this Lease, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively, or in the alternative:
54.Landlord may, at Landlord’s election, keep this Lease in effect and enforce, by an action at law or in equity, all of its rights and remedies under this Lease including, without limitation, (i) the right to recover the rent and other sums as they become due by appropriate legal action, (ii) the right to make payments required by Tenant, or perform Tenant’s obligations and be reimbursed by Tenant for the cost thereof with interest at a rate equal to the Default Interest Rate from the date the sum is paid by Landlord until Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant, and (iii) the remedies of injunctive relief and specific performance to prevent Tenant from violating the terms of this Lease and/or to compel Tenant to perform its obligations under this Lease, as the case may be.
55.Landlord may, at Landlord’s election, terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice of termination, in which event this Lease shall terminate on the date set forth for termination in such notice, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Leased Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Leased Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Leased Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor.  Any termination under this subparagraph shall not relieve Tenant from its obligation to pay to Landlord all Base Monthly Rent and Additional Rent then or thereafter due, or any other sums due or thereafter accruing to Landlord, or from any claim against Tenant for damages previously accrued or then or thereafter accruing.  In no event shall any one or more of the following actions by Landlord, in the absence of a written election by Landlord to terminate this Lease constitute a termination of this Lease:
xii.Appointment of a receiver or keeper in order to protect Landlord’s interest hereunder;
xiii.Consent to any subletting of the Leased Premises or assignment of this Lease by Tenant, whether pursuant to the provisions hereof or otherwise; or 
xiv.Any action taken by Landlord or its partners, principals, members, officers, agents, employees, or servants, which is intended to mitigate the adverse effects of any breach of this Lease by Tenant, including, without limitation, any action taken to maintain and preserve the Leased Premises on any action taken to relet the Leased Premises or any portion thereof for the account at Tenant and in the name of Tenant.
56.In the event Tenant breaches this Lease and abandons the Leased Premises, Landlord may terminate this Lease, but this Lease shall not terminate unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice of termination.  If Landlord does not terminate this Lease by giving written notice of termination, Landlord may enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right and remedies provided by California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (“lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations”), as in effect on the Effective Date of this Lease.
57.In the event Landlord terminates this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled, at Landlord’s election, to the rights and remedies provided in California Civil Code Section 1951.2, as in effect on the Effective Date of this Lease.  For purposes of computing damages pursuant to Section 1951.2, an interest rate equal to the Default Interest Rate shall be used.  Such damages shall include, without limitation:
    29    

99090796v.12

xv.The worth at the time of the award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination; plus
xvi.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 Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
xvii.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 Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, at the time of award plus one percent; plus
xviii.Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including without limitation, the following:  (i) expenses for cleaning, repairing or restoring the Leased Premises, (ii) expenses for altering, remodeling or otherwise improving the Leased Premises for the purpose of reletting, including removal of existing leasehold improvements and/or installation of additional leasehold improvements (regardless of how the same is funded, including reduction of rent, a direct payment or allowance to a new tenant, or otherwise), (iii) broker’s fees allocable to the remainder of the term of this Lease, advertising costs and other expenses of reletting the Leased Premises; (iv) costs of carrying and maintaining the Leased Premises, such as taxes, insurance premiums, utility charges and security precautions (although the foregoing shall not in any way modify Paragraph 5.3 above), (v) expenses incurred in removing, disposing of and/or storing any of Tenant’s personal property, inventory or trade fixtures remaining therein; (vi) reasonable attorney’s fees, expert witness fees, court costs and other reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord (but not limited to taxable costs) in retaking possession of the Leased Premises, establishing damages hereunder, and releasing the Leased Premises; and (vii) any other expenses, costs or damages otherwise incurred or suffered as a result of Tenant’s default; plus
xix.The unamortized amount of any tenant improvement or similar allowance paid or credited by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to this Lease or the Work Letter, to the extent not in duplication of any other recovery by Landlord under this Paragraph 12.2; plus
xx.In addition, Tenant acknowledges that an event of default under this Lease may cause Landlord to incur damages under its mortgage and related financing documents, including, but not limited to, the payment of default interest, legal fees, late charges, collection costs, and sums necessary to maintain Lender’s yield on the loaned amounts.  Accordingly, Tenant agrees that Landlord has the right to add such loan-related damages to the damages for which Tenant is responsible hereunder as a result of an event of default, to the extent not in duplication of any other recovery by Landlord under this Paragraph 12.2.
58.Pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161.1, Landlord may accept a partial payment of Rent after serving a notice pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, and may without further notice to the Tenant, commence and pursue an action to recover the difference between the amount demanded in that notice and the payment actually received.  This acceptance of such a partial payment of Rent does not constitute a waiver of any rights, including any right the Landlord may have to recover possession of the Leased Premises.  Further, Tenant agrees that any notice given by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 12.1 of this Lease shall satisfy the requirements for notice under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, and Landlord shall not be required to give any additional notice in order to be entitled to commence an unlawful detainer proceeding.
c.Landlord’s Default And Tenant’s Remedies
.  In the event Landlord fails to perform its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall nevertheless not be in default under the terms of this Lease until such time as Tenant shall have first given Landlord written notice specifying the nature of such failure to perform its obligations, and then only after Landlord shall have had thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice within which to perform such obligations; provided that, if longer than thirty (30) days is reasonably required in order to perform such obligations, Landlord shall have such longer period.  In the event of Landlord’s default as above set forth, then, and only then, Tenant may then proceed in equity or at law to compel Landlord to perform its obligations and/or to recover damages proximately caused by such failure to perform (except as and to the extent Tenant has waived its right to damages as provided in this Lease).
d.Limitation Of Tenant’s Recourse
    30    

99090796v.12

.  Tenant’s sole recourse against Landlord shall be to Landlord’s assets.  If Landlord is a corporation, trust, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, unincorporated association, or other form of business entity, Tenant agrees that (i) the obligations of Landlord under this Lease shall not constitute personal obligations of the officers, directors, trustees, partners, joint venturers, members, managers, owners, stockholders, or other principals of such business entity, and (ii) Tenant shall have recourse only to the interest of such corporation, trust, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, unincorporated association, or other form of business entity in the Property for the satisfaction of such obligations and not against the assets of such officers, directors, trustees, partners, joint venturers, members, managers, owners, stockholders or principals.  Additionally, if Landlord is a partnership or limited liability company, then Tenant covenants and agrees:
59.No partner, manager, or member of Landlord shall be sued or named as a party in any suit or action brought by Tenant with respect to any alleged breach of this Lease (except to the extent necessary to secure jurisdiction over the partnership or limited liability company and then only for that sole purpose);
60.No service of process shall be made against any partner, manager, or member of Landlord except for the sole purpose of securing jurisdiction over the partnership; and 
61.No writ of execution will ever be levied against the assets of any partner, manager, or member of Landlord other than to the extent of his or her interest in the assets of the partnership or limited liability company constituting Landlord.
Tenant further agrees that each of the foregoing covenants and agreements shall be enforceable by Landlord and by any partner or manager or member of Landlord and shall be applicable to any actual or alleged misrepresentation or nondisclosure made regarding this Lease or the Leased Premises or any actual or alleged failure, default or breach of any covenant or agreement either expressly or implicitly contained in this Lease or imposed by statute or at common law.
e.Tenant’s Waiver
.  Landlord and Tenant agree that the provisions of Paragraph 12.3 above are intended to supersede and replace the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942, and accordingly, Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942 and/or any similar or successor law regarding Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease or to make repairs and deduct the expenses of such repairs from the rent due under this Lease.
Article 13.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
a.Taxes On Tenant’s Property
.  
62.Tenant shall pay before delinquency any and all taxes, assessments, license fees, use fees, permit fees and public charges of whatever nature or description levied, assessed or imposed against Tenant or Landlord by a governmental agency arising out of, caused by reason of or based upon Tenant’s estate in this Lease, Tenant’s ownership of property, improvements made by Tenant to the Leased Premises or the Common Areas, improvements made by Landlord for Tenant’s use within the Leased Premises or the Common Areas to the extent the cost thereof constitutes Excess TI Amount (defined in subparagraph (d) below), Tenant’s use (or estimated use) of public facilities or services or Tenant’s consumption (or estimated consumption) of public utilities, energy, water or other resources (collectively, “Tenant’s Interest”).  Upon demand by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with satisfactory evidence of these payments.
63.If any such taxes, assessments, fees or public charges are levied against Landlord, Landlord’s property, the Building or the Property, or if the assessed value of the Building or the Property is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon Tenant’s Interest or on the Excess TI Amount, regardless of the validity thereof, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to pay such taxes, and if not paid and satisfactory evidence of payment delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to delinquency, then Landlord shall have the right to pay such taxes on Tenant’s behalf and to invoice Tenant for the same, in either case whether before or after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.  Tenant shall, within the earlier to occur of (a) thirty (30) days of the date it receives an invoice from Landlord setting forth the amount of such taxes, assessments, fees, or public charge so 
    31    

99090796v.12

levied, or (b) the due date of such invoice, pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the amount set forth in such invoice.  Failure by Tenant to pay the amount so invoiced within such time period shall be conclusively deemed a default by Tenant under this Lease.  Tenant shall have the right to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover from the taxing authority the amount of any such taxes, assessments, fees or public charges so paid.
64.Tenant shall not be obligated to pay or reimburse Landlord for any taxes, assessments, license fees, use fees, permit fees and public charges of whatever nature or description levied, assessed or imposed against any other tenant or Landlord by a governmental agency arising out of, caused by reason of or based upon any other tenant’s lease, any other tenant’s ownership of property, improvements made by any other tenant to any leased premises or the Common Areas, improvements made by Landlord for any other tenant’s use within its leased premises or the Common Areas, any other tenant’s use (or estimated use) of public facilities or services or any other tenant’s consumption (or estimated consumption) of public utilities, energy, water or other resources.
65.Notwithstanding the foregoing subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, it is the intent of the parties that any increase in real property taxes resulting from the improvements made by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 1 of the Work Letter, or made by Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 2 of the Work Letter up to but not in excess of $27,450,390, shall be deemed Real Property Taxes pursuant to Paragraph 13.12(a) below.  The cost of the Tenant Improvements in excess of $27,450,390 shall be defined as the “Excess TI Amount.”  If it is not clear from the real property tax bill(s) that the assessor did not include any portion of the Excess TI Amount in the real property assessment, or if it is not clear from the personal property tax bill(s) that they do not include any portion of the cost of the Tenant Improvements below the Excess TI Amount, then Landlord shall have the right to re-allocate amounts from Tenant’s Interest to Real Property Taxes, and vice versa, in order to accomplish the intent of the parties as described above, such re-allocation to be made substantially as hereinafter described, and the parties shall cooperate in providing reasonable documentation supporting the cost data required: (1) the hard and soft costs incurred by Landlord in performing the improvements pursuant to Paragraph 1 of the Work Letter (the “Cost of Landlord’s Work”) shall be determined; (2) the hard and soft costs incurred by Tenant, inclusive of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, in performing the improvements pursuant to Paragraph 2 of the Work Letter (the “Cost of the TIs”) shall be determined; (3) in addition to the other components of Real Property Taxes (including but not limited to the real property taxes based on the most current property tax bills), Real Property Taxes would include real property taxes attributable to the increase in the assessed value of the Building resulting from the Cost of the Landlord’s Work and the Cost of the TIs (the “Increased Assessment”) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is $27,450,390 plus the Cost of Landlord’s Work, and the denominator of which is the Cost of the Landlord’s Work plus the Cost of the TIs; and (4) Tenant’s Interest would include real property taxes attributable to the balance of the Increased Assessment.
66.If the Property is further reassessed for property tax purposes due to another tenant’s improvements and real property taxes are increased as a result, Tenant will not be responsible for more in the way of Real Property Taxes by virtue of the increased assessment resulting from such other tenant’s improvements than it would have been had such increase been treated using the same methodology as described in subparagraph (d) above. 
b.Holding Over
.  This Lease shall terminate without further notice on the Lease Expiration Date (as set forth in Article 1).  Any holding over by Tenant after expiration of the Lease Term shall neither constitute a renewal nor extension of this Lease nor give Tenant any rights in or to the Leased Premises except as expressly provided in this Paragraph.  Any such holding over to which Landlord has consented shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month, on the same terms and conditions herein specified insofar as applicable, except that the Base Monthly Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Monthly Rent payable during the last full month immediately preceding such holding over.  Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a holding over to which Landlord has consented, any rights of Landlord or obligations of Tenant set forth in this Lease and purporting to apply during the term of this Lease, shall nonetheless also be deemed to apply during any such hold over period. Tenant acknowledges that if Tenant holds over without Landlord’s consent, such holding over may compromise or otherwise affect Landlord’s ability to enter into new leases with prospective tenants regarding the Leased Premises. Therefore, if Tenant fails to surrender the Leased Premises upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all claims resulting 
    32    

99090796v.12

from such failure, including, without limiting the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender, and any losses suffered by Landlord, including lost profits, resulting from such failure to surrender.
c.Subordination To Mortgages
.  This Lease is subject to and subordinate to the Ground Lease and any mortgages and deeds of trust which affect the Building or the Property and which are of public record as of the Effective Date of this Lease, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if requested by Landlord, Tenant agrees, within ten (10) days after Landlord’s written request therefor, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord any and all commercially reasonable documents or instruments requested by Landlord or by the existing lessor or lender to assure the subordination of this Lease to such ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust.  However, if the lessor under any such ground lease or any lender holding any such mortgage or deed of trust shall advise Landlord that it desires or requires this Lease to be made prior and superior thereto, then, upon written request of Landlord to Tenant, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all customary or reasonable documents or instruments which Landlord and such lessor or lender deems necessary or desirable to make this Lease prior thereto.  
Tenant hereby consents to Landlord’s ground leasing the land underlying the Building or the Property and/or encumbering the Building or the Property as security for future loans on such terms as Landlord shall desire, all of which future ground leases, mortgages or deeds of trust shall be subject to and subordinate to this Lease.  However, if any lessor under any such future ground lease or any lender holding such future mortgage or deed of trust shall desire or require that this Lease be made subject to and subordinate to such future ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust, then Tenant agrees, within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s written request therefor, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord any and all commercially reasonable documents or instruments requested by Landlord or by such lessor or lender to assure the subordination of this Lease to such future ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust, but only if such lessor or lender agrees not to disturb Tenant’s quiet possession of the Leased Premises so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease.  Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver such documents or instruments within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s request therefor shall be a material default by Tenant under this Lease in the event such failure is not cured within three (3) business days of Tenant’s receipt of written notice of such failure from Landlord, and no further notice shall be required under Paragraph 12.1(c) or any other provision of this Lease, and Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies available to Landlord as Landlord would otherwise have in the case of any other material default by Tenant, it being agreed and understood by Tenant that Tenant’s failure to so deliver such documents or instruments in a timely manner could result in Landlord being unable to perform committed obligations to other third parties which were made by Landlord in reliance upon this covenant of Tenant.  
If Landlord assigns this Lease as security for a loan, Tenant agrees to execute such documents as are reasonably requested by the lender and to provide reasonable provisions in this Lease protecting such lender’s security interest which are customarily required by institutional lenders making loans secured by a deed of trust, provided that any such documentation includes a provision that Tenant’s possession and interest in this Lease will not be disturbed so long as Tenant is not in default and attorns to the record owner of the ground leasehold interest in the Leased Premises.
With respect to the existing Ground Lease, pursuant to Paragraph 4.15, above, Landlord is to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a nondisturbance agreement from the Ground Lessor concurrently with requesting the Ground Lessor’s Consent.  
d.Tenant’s Attornment Upon Foreclosure
.  Tenant shall, upon request, attorn (i) to any purchaser of the Building or the Property at any foreclosure sale or private sale conducted pursuant to any security instruments encumbering the Building or the Property, (ii) to any grantee or transferee designated in any deed given in lieu of foreclosure of any security interest encumbering the Building or the Property, or (iii) to the lessor under an underlying ground lease of the land underlying the Building or the Property, should such ground lease be terminated; provided that such purchaser, grantee or lessor recognizes Tenant’s rights under this Lease, subject in all cases to the terms and provisions of the Ground Lessor’s Consent (as defined in Paragraph 4.15 above).
e.Mortgagee Protection
.  In the event of any default on the part of Landlord, Tenant will give notice by registered mail to any Lender or lessor under any underlying ground lease who shall have requested, in writing, to Tenant that it be provided with such notice, and Tenant shall offer such Lender or lessor a reasonable opportunity

Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver such estoppel certificate within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s request therefor shall be a material default by Tenant under this Lease if such failure is not cured within three (3) business days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice of such failure from Landlord, and no further notice shall be required under Paragraph 12.1(c) or any other provision of this Lease, and Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies available to Landlord as Landlord would otherwise have in the case of any other material default by Tenant, it being agreed and understood by Tenant that Tenant’s failure to so deliver such estoppel certificate in a timely manner could result in Landlord being unable to perform committed obligations to other third parties which were made by Landlord in reliance upon this covenant of Tenant.  Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this paragraph may be relied upon by any Lender or purchaser or prospective Lender or purchaser of the Building, the Property, or any interest in them.

Landlord may make such request and Tenant shall be obligated to comply therewith: (a) once in any twelve (12) month period, or (b) in connection a prospective sale or refinancing of Landlord’s interest in the Ground Lease, or (c) in connection a prospective recapitalization of Landlord, or (d) at any time Tenant is in monetary or material non-monetary default under this Lease.  Landlord shall be entitled to disclose such financial statements or other information to its Lender, to any present or prospective principal of or investor in Landlord, or to any prospective Lender or purchaser of the Building, the Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein.  Any such financial statement or other information which is marked “confidential” or “company secrets” (or is otherwise similarly marked by Tenant) shall be confidential and shall not be disclosed by Landlord to any third party except as specifically provided in this paragraph, unless the same becomes a part of the public domain without the fault of Landlord.
h.Transfer By Landlord
. Landlord and its successors in interest shall have the right to transfer their interest in the Building, the Property, or any portion thereof at any time and to any person or entity.  In the event of any such transfer of Landlord’s entire interest in the Property, the Landlord originally named herein (and in the case of any subsequent transfer, the transferor), from the date of such transfer, shall be automatically relieved, without any further act by any person or entity, of all liability for (i) the performance of the obligations of the Landlord hereunder which may accrue after the date of such transfer if its transferee agrees to assume and perform all such obligations of the Landlord hereunder, and (ii) repayment of any unapplied portion of the Security Deposit (upon transferring or crediting the same to the transferee), and (iii) the performance of the obligations of the Landlord hereunder which have accrued before the date of transfer if its transferee agrees to assume and perform all such prior obligations of the Landlord hereunder. Tenant shall attorn to any such transferee.  After the date of any such transfer, the term “Landlord” as used herein shall mean the transferee of such interest in the Building or the Property.
i.Force Majeure
.  Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, acts of God, acts of war, terrorist acts, inability to obtain services, labor, or materials or reasonable substitutes therefor,

governmental actions including without limitation shelter in place or similar mandates, civil commotions, fire or other casualty, delay in obtaining approvals, building permits and certificates of occupancy within normal time frames, and other causes beyond the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform, except with respect to the obligations imposed with regard to Rent and other charges to be paid pursuant to this Lease (other than the potential delay in the Lease Commencement Date as provided in Paragraph 1.1 above, and except where any governmental mandates due to public health emergencies make it such that Tenant is legally prohibited from operating Tenant’s business upon the Leased Premises) (collectively, a “Force Majeure”), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, shall excuse the performance of such party for a period equal to any such prevention, delay or stoppage and, therefore, if this Lease specifies a time period for performance of an obligation of either party, that time period shall be extended by the period of any delay in such party’s performance caused by a Force Majeure.
j.Notices

Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Lease other than statutory notices shall be in writing and (i) personally delivered, (ii) sent by United States mail, registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, (iii) sent by Federal Express or similar nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) transmitted by email with a hard copy sent within one (1) business day by any of the foregoing means, and in all cases addressed as follows, and such notice shall be deemed to have been given upon the date of actual receipt or delivery (or refusal to accept delivery) at the address specified below (or such other addresses as may be specified by notice in the foregoing manner) as indicated on the return receipt or air bill:

79.The Extension Option shall be exercised, if at all, by notice of exercise given to Landlord by Tenant not earlier than fifteen months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, and not later than the later of (i) twelve months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or (ii) five (5) days after Tenant has been notified in writing that Landlord has extended the Ground Lease by at least ten (10) years as set forth in Paragraph 15.1(a) above ; and 
80.Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if Tenant is in default under any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease, either at the time Tenant exercises the Extension Option or on the commencement date of the Extension Period, Landlord shall have, in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies provided in this Lease, the right to terminate the Extension Option upon notice to Tenant.
b.Fair Market Rent
.  In the event the Extension Option is exercised in a timely fashion, this Lease shall be extended for the Extension Period upon all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, provided that the Base Monthly Rent for the Extension Period shall be the Fair Market Rent for the Leased Premises.  For purposes hereof, “Fair Market Rent” shall mean the Base Monthly Rent (including 3% annual increases) determined pursuant to the process described below.  In no event, however, shall any adjustment of Base Monthly Rent pursuant to this paragraph result in a decrease of the Base Monthly Rent for the Leased Premises below the amount due from Tenant for the preceding portion of the initial Lease Term for which Base Monthly Rent had been fixed.  
No leasing commissions shall be due or payable to any broker retained by Tenant with regard to this Lease for the Extension Period.
c.Tenant’s Election
.  Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice of exercise, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of Landlord’s estimate of the Base Monthly Rent for the Extension Period, based on the provisions of Paragraph 15.2 above.  Within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice from Landlord, Tenant shall have the right either to (i) accept Landlord’s statement of Base Monthly Rent as the Base 
    41    

99090796v.12

Monthly Rent for the Extension Period; or (ii) elect to arbitrate Landlord’s estimate of Fair Market Rent, such arbitration to be conducted pursuant to the provisions hereof.  Failure on the part of Tenant to require arbitration of Fair Market Rent within such 30day period shall be deemed Tenant’s election to arbitrate.  If Tenant elects arbitration, the arbitration shall be concluded within 90 days after the date of Tenant’s election, subject to extension for an additional 30day period if a third arbitrator is required and does not act in a timely manner.  To the extent that arbitration has not been completed prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, Tenant shall pay Base Monthly Rent at the lower of (a) the rate calculated by Landlord, or (b) 110% of the last Base Monthly Rent in effect, with the potential for an adjustment to be made once Fair Market Rent is ultimately determined by arbitration.
d.Rent Arbitration
.  In the event of arbitration, the judgment or the award rendered in any such arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction and shall be final and binding between the parties. The arbitration shall be conducted and determined in the City and County of San Francisco in accordance with the procedure set forth below.  Arbitration as described herein shall mean a proceeding as described below utilizing real estate professionals meeting the below criteria who resolve the matter among themselves as described below, and is not intended to refer to an arbitration as used in the context of litigation or requiring the involvement of JAMS or AAA.
81.Tenant shall make demand for arbitration in writing within thirty (30) days after service of Landlord’s determination of Fair Market Rent given under Paragraph 15.3 above, specifying therein the name and address of the person to act as the arbitrator on its behalf.  The arbitrator shall be qualified as a licensed California real estate broker with at least ten (10) years of leasing experience in in Palo Alto who is familiar with the Fair Market Rent of similar space in Palo Alto and who would qualify as an expert witness over objection to give opinion testimony addressed to the issue in a court of competent jurisdiction.  Failure on the part of Tenant to make a proper demand in a timely manner for such arbitration shall be deemed an election to arbitrate.  Within fifteen (15) days after the service of the demand for arbitration (or deemed demand as set forth above), Landlord shall give notice to Tenant, specifying the name and address of the person designated by Landlord to act as arbitrator on its behalf who shall be similarly qualified.  If Landlord fails to notify Tenant of the appointment of its arbitrator, within or by the time above specified, then the arbitrator appointed by Tenant shall be the arbitrator to determine the issue.
82.In the event that two arbitrators are chosen pursuant to Paragraph 15.4(a) above, the arbitrators so chosen shall, within fifteen (15) days after the second arbitrator is appointed determine the Fair Market Rent.  If the two arbitrators shall be unable to agree upon a determination of Fair Market Rent within such fifteen (15) day period, they, themselves, shall appoint a third arbitrator, who shall be a competent and impartial person with qualifications similar to those required of the first two arbitrators pursuant to Paragraph 15.4(a).  In the event they are unable to agree upon such appointment within seven (7) days after expiration of such fifteen (15) day period, the third arbitrator shall be selected by the parties themselves, if they can agree thereon, within a further period of fifteen (15) days.  If the parties do not so agree, then either party, on behalf of both, may request appointment of such a qualified person by the then Presiding Judge of the California Superior Court having jurisdiction over the County of Santa Clara, and the other party shall not raise any question as to such Judge’s full power and jurisdiction to entertain the application for and make the appointment.  The three arbitrators shall decide the dispute if it has not previously been resolved by following the procedure set forth below.
83.Where an issue cannot be resolved by agreement between the two arbitrators selected by Landlord and Tenant or settlement between the parties during the course of arbitration, the issue shall be resolved by the three arbitrators within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator in accordance with the following procedure.  The arbitrator selected by each of the parties shall state in writing his determination of the Fair Market Rent supported by the reasons therefor with counterpart copies to each party.  The arbitrators shall arrange for a simultaneous exchange of such proposed resolutions.  The role of the third arbitrator shall be to select which of the two proposed resolutions most closely approximates his determination of Fair Market Rent.  The third arbitrator shall have no right to propose a middle ground or any modification of either of the two proposed resolutions.  The resolution he chooses as most closely approximating his determination shall constitute the decision of the arbitrators and be final and binding upon the parties.
84.In the event of a failure, refusal or inability of any arbitrator to act, his successor shall be appointed by him, but in the case of the third arbitrator, his successor shall be appointed in the same manner as provided for appointment of the third arbitrator.  The arbitrators shall decide the issue within fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the third arbitrator.  Any decision in which the arbitrator appointed by Landlord and the arbitrator appointed by Tenant concur shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties.  Each party shall pay the fee and expenses of its respective arbitrator and both shall share 
    42    

99090796v.12

the fee and expenses of the third arbitrator, if any, and the attorneys’ fees and expenses of counsel for the respective parties and of witnesses shall be paid by the respective party engaging such counsel or calling such witnesses.
85.The arbitrators shall have the right to consult experts and competent authorities to obtain factual information or evidence pertaining to a determination of Fair Market Rent, but any such consultation shall be made in the presence of both parties with full right on their part to cross examine.  The arbitrators shall render their decision and award in writing with counterpart copies to each party.  The arbitrators shall have no power to modify the provisions of this Lease.
Article 16.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICE
a.Telecommunications Service.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary: (a) except as may otherwise be provided in the Work Letter, Landlord shall have no responsibility for providing to Tenant any telecommunications equipment of any kind, including but not limited to wiring and cabling, within the Leased Premises or for providing telephone, internet, or other telecommunications service or connections from the utility to the Leased Premises; and (b) Landlord makes no warranty as to the quality, continuity or availability of the telecommunications services in the Building, and Tenant hereby waives any claim against Landlord for any actual or consequential damages (including damages for loss of business) in the event Tenant’s telecommunications services in any way are interrupted, damaged or rendered less effective, except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, employees, or contractors.  Tenant accepts the telecommunications equipment in its “AS-IS” condition, and Tenant shall be solely responsible for contracting with a reliable third party vendor to assume responsibility for the maintenance and repair thereof (which contract shall contain provisions requiring such vendor to meet local and federal requirements for telecommunications material and workmanship).
Article 17.
Right of First Offer to Lease; Right of First Refusal to Lease; Purchase Option.
a.Right of First Offer to Lease.
(a)    Provided that Guardant Health, Inc. or a Permitted Assignee is then the Tenant hereunder, and occupies at least sixty percent (60%) of the Leased Premises or is the tenant of the entire Property, and is not in monetary or material non-monetary default beyond any notice and cure period expressly set forth in this Lease, then at any time after the balance of the space within the Building has been leased to other tenants (“Level A and B Tenants”), prior to entering into a lease with a third party for space which thereafter becomes available in the Building (the “ROFO Space”), Landlord shall deliver a written notice (the “Landlord’s ROFO Notice”) to Tenant setting forth the material terms upon which Landlord is willing to lease the ROFO Space to such third party.  Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Landlord’s ROFO Notice of Tenant’s election to lease the ROFO Space on the terms set forth in the Landlord’s ROFO Notice (“Tenant’s ROFO Election Notice”).  In the event Tenant delivers Tenant’s ROFO Election Notice within the time period required herein, then the parties shall within an additional period of ten (10) business days, negotiate and enter into an amendment of this Lease reflecting the terms set forth in the Landlord’s ROFO Notice and containing such conforming changes as are agreed to by Tenant and Landlord (the “ROFO Amendment”), each agreeing to be reasonable.
(b)    Failure of Tenant to deliver Tenant’s ROFO Election Notice within the forgoing twenty (20) day period shall be deemed an election by Tenant to not lease the ROFO Space.
(c)    Failure of Tenant to enter into the ROFO Amendment within the forgoing ten (10) business day period shall be deemed an election by Tenant to not lease the ROFO Space except solely in the event Landlord failed to negotiate reasonably and in good faith.
(d)    If Tenant elects or is deemed to have elected not to lease the ROFO Space, then Landlord shall be free to lease all or a portion of the ROFO Space to a third party on such terms as shall be agreed upon by Landlord and such third party.

    43    

99090796v.12

business days after Tenant’s receipt thereof.  As used in this Lease, the term “Net Effective Rental Rate” shall mean the net present value of the rent and additional rent payable under the terms of Landlord’s ROFO Notice, taking into account any allowances and the fair market value of any work to be performed by Landlord at its sole expense in connection with any such proposed transaction using a discount rate equal to the sum of that rate quoted by Wells Fargo Bank, N.T. & S. A., from time to time as its prime rate, plus two percent (2%).
(e)    Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not have the right to deliver Tenant’s ROFO Election Notice during any period that Tenant is in in monetary or material non-monetary default under any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease with respect to which it has received a written notice from Landlord if such default remains uncured, and the time periods provided for herein shall not be tolled or extended during Tenant’s cure thereof, but the foregoing shall not be read to prevent Tenant from curing the applicable default and then delivering Tenant’s ROFO Election Notice once the default is cured if such cure is completed within the applicable cure period, if any, expressly set forth in this Lease, and Tenant’s ROFO Election Notice is delivered within the time periods provided above.
(f)    Tenant’s rights under this Paragraph 17.1 shall for all purposes be subordinate to the rights (including but not limited to extension, renewal, expansion, and purchase rights) of any of the Level A and B Tenants.  
b.Right of First Refusal to Lease.
(a)    Provided that Guardant Health, Inc. or a Permitted Assignee is then the Tenant hereunder, occupies at least sixty percent (60%) of the Leased Premises or is the tenant of the entire Property, and is not in monetary or material non-monetary default beyond any notice and cure period expressly set forth in this Lease, then at any time from the Effective Date of this Lease until December 31, 2021 (the “ROFR Period”), in the event Landlord receives an offer which Landlord desires to accept (an “Acceptable Offer”), from another prospective tenant to lease designated space the balance of the Building (the “ROFO Space”), then prior to entering into a lease with such prospective tenant for the ROFO Space, Landlord shall deliver a written notice (the “Landlord’s ROFR Notice”) to Tenant setting forth the material terms of the Acceptable Offer upon which Landlord is willing to lease the ROFR Space to such prospective tenant.  Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Landlord’s ROFR Notice of Tenant’s election to lease the ROFR Space on the terms set forth in the Acceptable Offer (“Tenant’s ROFR Election Notice”).  In the event Tenant delivers Tenant’s ROFR Election Notice within the time period required herein, then the parties shall within an additional period of ten (10) business days, negotiate and enter into an amendment of this Lease reflecting the terms set forth in the Landlord’s ROFR Notice and containing such conforming changes as are agreed to by Tenant and Landlord (the “ROFR Amendment”), each agreeing to be reasonable. 
(b)    Failure of Tenant to deliver Tenant’s ROFR Election Notice within the forgoing ten (10) business day period shall be deemed an election by Tenant to not lease the ROFR Space.
(c)    Failure of Tenant to enter into the ROFR Amendment within the forgoing ten (10) business day period shall be deemed an election by Tenant to not lease the ROFR Space except solely in the event Landlord failed to negotiate reasonably and in good faith.
(d)    If Tenant elects or is deemed to have elected not to lease the ROFR Space, then Landlord shall be free to lease all or a portion of the ROFR Space to a third party on such terms as shall be agreed upon by Landlord and such third party.  In the event that Landlord proposes to do so at a Net Effective Rental Rate that is less (on a per rentable square foot basis) than ninety percent (90%) of the Net Effective Rental Rate specified in Landlord’s ROFR Notice, or Landlord does not lease the ROFR Space within 270 days after the date of the ROFR Notice, Tenant’s rights under Paragraph 17.1 shall be revived and Landlord shall deliver a revised ROFR Notice (the “Revised ROFR Notice”) offering to lease the ROFR Space to Tenant at such proposed lower rate and Tenant shall have the right to lease the ROFR Space on the terms set forth in such Revised ROFR Notice, by notice to Landlord given within ten (10) business days after Tenant’s receipt thereof.
(e)    Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not have the right to deliver Tenant’s ROFR Election Notice during any period that Tenant is in in monetary or material non-monetary default under any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease with respect to which it has received a written notice from Landlord if such default remains uncured, and the time periods provided for herein shall not be tolled or extended during Tenant’s cure thereof, but the foregoing shall not be read to prevent Tenant from curing the applicable default and then delivering Tenant’s ROFR Election Notice once the default is cured if such cure is completed within the applicable cure period, if 
    44    

99090796v.12

any, expressly set forth in this Lease, and Tenant’s ROFR Election Notice is delivered within the time periods provided above.
(f)    This Paragraph 17.2 shall be void and of no force or effect upon the expiration of the time for Tenant to lease the ROFR Space as set forth above.

(b)    Failure of Tenant to deliver Tenant’s Purchase Election Notice within the forgoing ten (10) business day period shall be deemed an election by Tenant to not acquire the Ground Lessee’s Interest.
(c)    Failure of Tenant to enter into the PSA within the forgoing ten (10) business day period shall be deemed an election by Tenant to not acquire the Ground Lessee’s Interest except solely in the event Landlord failed to negotiate in good faith.

In the event that Landlord proposes to do so at a net purchase price that is less than ninety percent (90%) of the purchase price specified in Landlord’s Sale Notice, or Landlord does sell the Ground Lessee’s Interest within 270 days after the date of Landlord’s Sale Notice, Tenant’s rights under Paragraph 17.3 shall be revived and Landlord shall deliver a revised Landlord’s Sale Notice (the “Revised Landlord’s Sale Notice”) offering to sell the Ground Lessee’s Interest to Tenant at such proposed lower price and Tenant shall have the right to purchase the Ground Lessee’s Interest on the terms set forth in such Revised Landlord’s Sale Notice, by notice to Landlord given within ten (10) business days after Tenant’s receipt thereof.
(e)    Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not have the right to deliver Tenant’s Purchase Election Notice during any period that Tenant is in in monetary or material non-monetary default under any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease with respect to which it has received a written notice from Landlord if such default remains uncured, and the time periods provided for herein shall not be tolled or extended during Tenant’s cure thereof, but the foregoing shall not be read to prevent Tenant from curing the applicable default and then delivering Tenant’s Purchase Election Notice once the default is cured if such cure is completed within the applicable cure period, if any, expressly set forth in this Lease, and Tenant’s Purchase Election Notice is delivered within the time periods provided above.
