The parties hereto agree that the lease of the Premises is upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth, and Tenant covenants as a material part of the consideration for this Lease to keep and perform each and all of such terms, covenants and conditions by it to be kept and performed and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such performance.  The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that the purpose of Exhibit A-1 is to show the approximate location of the Premises in the "Building," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below, only, and such Exhibit is not meant to constitute an agreement, representation or warranty as to the construction of the Premises, the precise area thereof or the specific location of the "Common Areas," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.3, below, or the elements thereof or of the accessways to the Premises or the "Project," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below.

Landlord shall be deemed to have tendered possession of the Premises to Tenant upon the date when Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant along with any access codes or keys necessary to access the Premises (the "Possession Date"), and no action by Tenant shall be required therefor.  If for any reason, Landlord is delayed in delivering possession of the Premises to Tenant by any particular date, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for such failure, and the validity of this Lease shall not be impaired.  Neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Premises, the Building or the Project or with respect to the suitability of any of the foregoing for the conduct of Tenant's business.

Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas, provided that Landlord shall give prior written notice to Tenant of any material changes to the Project or the Common Areas which relate to the Premises or adversely impact Tenant's use thereof, and in no event shall such closure, alterations, additions, or change of location materially and adversely affect Tenant’s use of the Premises for the Permitted Use or cause a reduction in the size of the Premises or cause a change to the layout of the Premises.  In the event of such closure, alterations, additions, or change of location, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s operations in the Premises.

  ARTICLE 2

  2.2	Option Term.

Landlord hereby grants to the Original Tenant and any "Permitted Non-Transferee Assignee" (as such term is defined in Section 14.8, below) one (1) option to extend the Lease Term for a period of three (3) years (the "Option Term"), which option shall be exercisable only by written notice delivered by

  Tenant to Landlord as provided below, provided that the following conditions (the "Option Conditions") are satisfied:  (i) as of the date of delivery of the "Option Exercise Notice," as that term is defined in Section 2.2.4, below, this Lease remains in full force and effect, Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period and has not previously been in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period more than twice, and Tenant occupies the entire Premises; (ii) as of the end of the initial Lease Term, this Lease remains in full force and effect, Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period and has not previously been in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period more than twice; and (iii)  Tenant occupies the entire Premises at the time the option to extend is exercised and as of the commencement of the Option Term.  Landlord may, at Landlord's option, exercised in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, waive any of the Option Conditions in which case the option, if otherwise properly exercised by Tenant, shall remain in full force and effect.  Upon the proper exercise of such option to extend, and provided that Tenant satisfies all of the Option Conditions (except those, if any, which are waived by Landlord), the Lease Term, as it applies to the Premises, shall be extended for a period of three (3) years.  The rights contained in this Section 2.2 shall be personal to the Original Tenant and any Permitted Non-Transferee Assignee, and may be exercised only by the Original Tenant or its Permitted Non-Transferee Assignee (and not by any other assignee, sublessee or other "Transferee," as that term is defined in Section 14.1, below, of Tenant's interest in this Lease).

  2.2.2	Option Rent.  The annual Rent payable by Tenant during the Option Term (the "Option Rent") shall be the "Fair Rental Value," as that term is defined in Section 2.2.3 below, for the Premises for the Option Term.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Base Rent component of the Option Rent shall be adjusted accordingly such that Tenant shall continue to pay Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses during the Option Term in accordance with Article 4, below.  Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in no event shall the Base Rent component of the Option Rent for the Option Term (on a per month basis) be less than the monthly Base Rent payable during the last full calendar month of the initial Lease Term.

  2.2.3	Fair Rental Value.  As used in this Lease, "Fair Rental Value" shall be equal to the rent (including additional rent and considering any "base year" or "expense stop" applicable thereto) on an annual per rentable square foot basis, including all escalations, at which, as of the commencement of the Option Term, tenants are leasing non-sublease space which is comparable in size, location and quality to the Premises, for a comparable lease term, in an arm's length transaction consummated during the twelve (12) month period prior to the date on which Landlord delivers the "Option Rent Notice," as that term is defined in Section 2.2.4, below, which comparable space is located in the Building or in comparable first-class office buildings which are comparable to the Building in terms of tenant mix, age (based upon the date of completion of construction or major renovation), quality of construction, level of services and amenities, size and appearance, and are located in the "North County Coastal" submarket of San Diego County, California ("Comparable Buildings"), taking into consideration the value of the existing improvements in the subject space, such value to be based upon the age, condition, design, quality of finishes and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same could be utilized by a general office user (but taking into consideration, as applicable, the fact that the precise tenant improvements existing in the Premises are specifically suitable to Tenant) and the following concessions (collectively, the "Concessions"):  (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; and (b) other reasonable monetary concessions being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; provided, however, that in calculating the Fair Rental Value, no consideration shall be given to (i) the fact that Landlord is or is not required to pay a real estate brokerage commission in connection with Tenant's exercise of its right to lease the subject space during the term thereof, or the fact that landlords are or are not paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with such comparable space, (ii) any period of rental abatement, if any, granted to tenants in comparable transactions in connection with the design, permitting and construction of tenant improvements in such comparable spaces, and (iii) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable space.  The Fair Rental Value shall additionally include a determination as to whether, and if so to what extent, Tenant must provide Landlord with financial security, such as a letter of credit or guaranty, for Tenant's Rent obligations during the Option Term.  Such Concessions, at Landlord's election, either (A) shall be reflected in the effective rental rate payable by Tenant (which effective rental rate shall take into consideration the total dollar value of such Concessions as amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term of the comparable transaction), in which case such Concessions evidenced in the effective rental rate shall not be granted to Tenant, or (B) shall be granted to Tenant in kind.

  2.2.4	Exercise of Option.  The option contained in this Section 2.2 shall be exercised by Tenant, if at all, only in the following manner:  (i) Tenant shall deliver written notice (the "Option Exercise Notice") to Landlord not more than twelve (12) months nor less than six (6) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, stating that Tenant is irrevocably exercising its option for the entire Premises then being leased by Tenant; and (ii) Landlord, after receipt of Tenant's notice, shall deliver notice (the "Option Rent Notice") to Tenant on or before the later of three (3) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of the Option Exercise Notice setting forth the Option Rent; provided that, within five (5) business days after the date of the Option Rent Notice, Tenant may, at its option, object to the Option Rent contained in the Option Rent Notice, in which case the parties shall follow the procedure, and the Option Rent shall be determined, as set forth in Section 2.2.5, below.

  2.2.5	Determination of Option Rent.  In the event Tenant timely and appropriately objects to  the Option Rent, Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Option Rent using reasonable, good-faith efforts.  If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within thirty (30) days following Tenant's timely and appropriate objection to the Option Rent, then Tenant's exercise of the option to extend shall be deemed rescinded and the Lease Term shall not be extended for the Option Term.

  ARTICLE 3

BASE RENT

  3.1	In General.  Tenant shall pay, without prior notice or demand, to Landlord or Landlord's agent at the management office of the Project, or, at Landlord's option, at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, by a check for currency which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for private or public debts in the United States of America, base rent ("Base Rent") as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary, payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary in advance on or before the first day of each and every calendar month during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever.  The Base Rent for the first full month of the Lease Term which occurs after the expiration of any free rent period shall be paid at the time of Tenant's execution of this Lease.  If any Rent payment date (including the Lease Commencement Date) falls on a day of the month other than the first day of such month or if any payment of Rent is for a period which is shorter than one month, the Rent for any fractional month shall accrue on a daily basis for the period from the date such payment is due to the end of such calendar month or to the end of the Lease Term at a rate per day which is equal to 1/365 of the applicable annual Rent.  All other payments or adjustments required to be made under the terms of this Lease that require proration on a time basis shall be prorated on the same basis.

  3.2	Abated Base Rent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided there is not any default by Tenant under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, Landlord hereby agrees to abate Tenant's obligation to pay fifty percent (50%) of the Base Rent during the Abatement Months (such total amount of abated Base Rent being hereinafter referred to as the "Abated Base Rent").  During such Abatement Months, Tenant will still be responsible for the payment of all other monetary obligations under this Lease.  Tenant acknowledges that any default by Tenant under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated hereunder, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain, therefore, should Tenant at any time during the Lease Term be in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, then the total sum of the Abated Base Rent so conditionally excused as of such date shall become immediately due and payable by Tenant to Landlord and any remaining Abated Base Rent shall no longer be available to Tenant as a rent credit from the date of such default.  Tenant acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Section 3.2 is intended to limit any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity under "Applicable Laws" (as such term is defined in Article 24 of this Lease) in the event of a default by Tenant under this Lease.

  ARTICLE 4

ADDITIONAL RENT

  4.1	General Terms.  In addition to paying the Base Rent specified in Article 3 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay "Tenant's Share" of the annual "Direct Expenses," as those terms are defined in Sections 1.1.6 and 1.1.2, respectively, of Exhibit C attached to this Lease, which are in excess of the amount of Direct Expenses applicable to the "Base Year," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.1 of Exhibit C attached to this Lease; provided, however, that in no event shall any decrease in Direct Expenses for any "Expense Year," as that term is defined in Section 1.1.3 of Exhibit C attached to this Lease, below Direct Expenses for the Base Year entitle Tenant to any decrease in Base Rent or any credit against sums due under this Lease.  Such payments by Tenant, together with any and all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Additional Rent", and the Base Rent and the Additional Rent are herein collectively referred to as "Rent."  All amounts due under this Article 4 as Additional Rent shall be payable for the same periods and in the same manner as the Base Rent.  Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant which survive the expiration of the Lease Term, the obligations of Tenant to pay the Additional Rent provided for in this Article 4 and Exhibit C shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term.  Landlord may upon expiration of the Lease Term deliver to Tenant an estimate of any Base Rent, Additional Rent or other obligations outstanding, and Landlord may either deduct such amount from any funds otherwise payable to Tenant upon expiration or require Tenant to pay such funds immediately.  

  4.2	Taxes and Other Charges for Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible.

  4.2.1	Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay ten (10) days before delinquency, taxes levied against Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property located in or about the Premises.  If any such taxes on Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or if the assessed value of Landlord's property is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such equipment, furniture, fixtures or any other personal property and if Landlord pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment, as the case may be.

  4.2.2	If the tenant improvements in the Premises, whether installed and/or paid for by Landlord after delivery of the Premises to Tenant or by Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which tenant improvements conforming to Landlord's "building standard" in other space in the Building are assessed, then the Tax Expenses levied against Landlord or the property by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.2.1, above.

  4.2.3	Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Tenant shall pay prior to delinquency any (i) rent tax or sales tax, service tax, transfer tax or value added tax, or any other applicable tax on the rent or services herein or otherwise respecting this Lease, (ii) taxes assessed upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Project, including the Project parking facility; or (iii) taxes assessed upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.

  4.3	Landlord's Records.  Upon Tenant's written request given not more than thirty (30) days after Tenant's receipt of a "Statement" for a particular "Expense Year" (as such terms are defined in Sections 1.3.1 and 1.1.3, respectively, of Exhibit C attached to this Lease), and provided that Tenant is not then in default under this Lease beyond the applicable notice and cure period provided in this Lease, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with such reasonable supporting documentation in connection with Direct Expenses included within such Statement as Tenant may reasonably request.  Landlord shall provide said information to Tenant within sixty (60) days after Tenant's written request therefor.  Within ninety (90) days after receipt of a Statement by Tenant (the "Audit Period"), if Tenant disputes the amount of Direct Expenses set forth in the Statement, an independent certified public accountant

  (which accountant (A) is a member of a nationally or regionally recognized certified public accounting firm which has previous experience in reviewing financial operating records of landlords of comparable commercial buildings, (B) shall not already be providing primary accounting and/or lease administration services to Tenant and shall not have provided primary accounting and/or lease administration services to Tenant in the past three (3) years, (C) is not working on a contingency fee basis [i.e., Tenant must be billed based on the actual time and materials that are incurred by the certified public accounting firm in the performance of the audit], and (D) shall not currently or in the future be providing accounting and/or lease administration services to another tenant in the Building and/or the Project in connection with a review or audit by such other tenant of Direct Expenses) designated and paid for by Tenant, may, after reasonable notice to Landlord and at reasonable times, audit Landlord's records with respect to the Statement at Landlord's corporate offices, provided Tenant is not then in default under this Lease (beyond any applicable notice and cure periods).  In connection with such audit, Tenant and Tenant's certified public accounting firm must agree in advance to follow Landlord's reasonable rules and procedures regarding the audit of Landlord's records, and shall execute a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement regarding such audit.  Any audit report prepared by Tenant's certified public accounting firm shall be delivered concurrently to Landlord and Tenant within the Audit Period.  Tenant's failure to dispute and/or audit the amount of Direct Expenses set forth in any Statement within the Audit Period shall be deemed to be Tenant's approval of such Statement and Tenant, thereafter, waives the right or ability to audit the amounts set forth in such Statement.  If after such audit, Tenant still disputes such Direct Expenses, an audit to determine the proper amount shall be made, at Tenant's expense, by an independent certified public accountant (the "Accountant") selected by Landlord and subject to Tenant's reasonable approval; provided that if such audit by the Accountant proves that Direct Expenses were overstated by more than five percent (5%), then the cost of the Accountant and the cost of such audit shall be paid for by Landlord. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant's sole right to audit Landlord's records and to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant shall be as set forth in this Section 4.3, and Tenant hereby waives any and all other rights pursuant to applicable law to audit such records and/or to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant. 

  ARTICLE 5

Tenant shall use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use set forth in Section 7 of the Summary and Tenant shall not use or permit the Premises or the Project to be used for any other purpose or purposes whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion.  

  5.2	Prohibited Uses.  Tenant further covenants and agrees that Tenant shall not use, or suffer or permit any person or persons to use, the Premises or any part thereof for any use or purpose (i) contrary to the provisions of the Rules and Regulations set forth in Exhibit E, attached hereto, (ii) in violation of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California, the ordinances, regulations or requirements of the local municipal or county governing body or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Project) including, without limitation, any such laws, ordinances, regulations or requirements relating to hazardous materials or substances, as those terms are defined by applicable laws now or hereafter in effect, (iii) in violation of the exclusive uses of the other tenants in the Project as more particularly set forth on Exhibit F attached hereto or any other exclusive use hereafter in effect of which Landlord has given Tenant written notice, or (iv) in violation of any "Underlying Documents," as such term is defined in Section 1.1.4 of Exhibit C attached hereto.

  ARTICLE 6

SERVICES AND UTILITIES

  6.1	Services and Utilities.  

  6.1.1	Landlord shall provide the currently existing electrical system and HVAC unit(s) for the Premises.  Tenant shall pay the cost of the electrical service as set forth in Section 6.2, below, and the cost of any replacement or modification, repair or replacement of such existing electrical system and HVAC unit.  Landlord hereby acknowledges that such HVAC and electrical utilities are currently available at all times for use by Tenant pursuant to separate independent controls for the Premises.

  6.1.2	Landlord shall provide city water from the regular Building outlets for Tenant's regular use in the Premises consistent with the Permitted Use and for lavatory and toilet purposes in the Common Areas.

  6.1.3	Landlord shall provide janitorial services to the Premises, except for weekends and the date of observation of the "Holidays" (as such term is defined below), in and about the Premises and window washing services in a manner consistent with other comparable buildings in the vicinity of the Building.  As used herein, "Holidays" shall mean the date of observation of New Year's Day, President's Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Memorial Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and, at Landlord's discretion, other locally or nationally recognized holidays which are observed by other buildings comparable to and in the vicinity of the Building.

  Tenant shall cooperate fully with Landlord at all times and abide by all regulations and requirements that Landlord may reasonably prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the HVAC, electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems.

  6.2	Payment of Utilities Costs.  Tenant agrees, at its own expense, to pay for all power, gas, electric current, HVAC, telephone and all similar utilities used by Tenant on the Premises (including, without limitation, all sales, use and other taxes imposed thereon by any governmental authority).  Tenant agrees to provide, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, any utility meters of the type reasonably required by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, electric current and gas are both already separately metered for the Premises.  In the event that any utilities are furnished to the Premises by Landlord, whether submetered or otherwise, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of such utilities, including a commercially reasonable administrative charge for Landlord's supervision and reimbursement for any penalties for usage or other surcharges imposed by any utility company.  If charges for any such utilities are not separately charged to Tenant by the utility company, or separately submetered to the Premises, Landlord will apportion the costs of such utilities among the tenants utilizing the utility or service on an equitable basis as reasonably determined by Landlord.  Within twenty (20) days after receipt of Landlord's statement of apportionment or statement setting forth the charges payable by Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent, the cost of such services and utilities so apportioned or so provided by Landlord.  If Landlord shall from time to time determine that the use of any such utility or service in the Premises is disproportionate to the use of other tenants, Landlord may adjust Tenant's share of the cost thereof from a date determined by Landlord to take equitable account of such disproportionate use beyond the Building's hours designated by Landlord.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord, Landlord's standard charge for any services provided to Tenant which Landlord is not specifically obligated to provide to Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease.  Tenant shall, within ten (10) days following Landlord's request therefor, provide Landlord with a copy of each utility bill that Landlord may so request.

  6.3	Interruption of Use.  Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for damages, by abatement of Rent (except as specifically set forth in Section 6.4, below) or otherwise, for failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any service (including telephone and telecommunication services), or for any diminution in the quality or quantity thereof, when such failure or delay or diminution is occasioned, in whole or in part, by breakage, repairs, replacements, or improvements, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by inability to secure electricity, gas, water, or other fuel at the Building or Project after reasonable effort to do so, by any riot or other dangerous condition, emergency, accident

  or casualty whatsoever, by act or default of Tenant or other parties (other than Landlord as set forth in Section 6.4, below), or by any other cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control; and such failures or delays or diminution shall never be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant's use and possession of the Premises or relieve Tenant from paying Rent (except as specifically set forth in Section 6.4, below) or performing any of its obligations under this Lease.  Furthermore, Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of, or injury to, property or for injury to, or interference with, Tenant's business, including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring, through or in connection with or incidental to a failure to furnish any of the services or utilities as set forth in this Article 6.

  6.4	Abatement Event.  In the event that (i) Tenant is prevented from using, and actually does not use, a material portion of the Premises as a result of either (x) any failure by Landlord to provide services to the Premises as required by Section 6.1 of this Lease or (y) a failure by Landlord to maintain the Project or Common Areas pursuant to Section 7 of this Lease, (ii) such failure is within the reasonable control of Landlord to cure, and (iii) such failure is not the result of the acts and/or omissions of Tenant and/or other "Tenant Parties," as such term is defined in Section 10.1, below (an "Abatement Event" "), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such Abatement Event, and if such Abatement Event continues for five (5) consecutive business days after Landlord's  receipt of any such notice (the "Eligibility Period"), then the Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after expiration of the Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable area of the Premises; provided, however, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, a portion of the Premises for a period of time in excess of the Eligibility Period and the remaining portion of the Premises is not sufficient to allow Tenant to effectively conduct its business therein, and if Tenant does not conduct its business from such remaining portion, then for such time after expiration of the Eligibility Period during which Tenant is so prevented from effectively conducting its business therein, the Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for the entire Premises shall be abated for such time as Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises.  If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of the Premises during such period, the Rent allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the proportion that the rentable area of such reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant from the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises.  Such right to abate Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity for an Abatement Event.  Except as provided in this Section 6.4, nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Tenant is excused from paying Rent due hereunder.

  ARTICLE 7

REPAIRS

  Tenant shall, at Tenant's own expense, keep the Premises, including all improvements, fixtures, furnishings, and systems and equipment therein (including, without limitation, plumbing fixtures and equipment such as dishwashers, garbage disposals, and insta-hot dispensers), and the floor or floors of the Building on which the Premises are located and all areas, improvements and systems exclusively serving the Premises (including, without limitation, the branch lines of the plumbing, electrical and other systems), in good order, repair and condition at all times during the Lease Term.  In addition, Tenant shall, at Tenant's own expense, but under the supervision, and subject to the prior approval of Landlord if such repair would require Landlord's consent pursuant to Article 8 below, and within any reasonable period of time specified by Landlord, promptly and adequately repair all damage to the Premises and replace or repair all damaged, broken, or worn fixtures and appurtenances, except for damage caused by ordinary wear and tear or beyond the reasonable control of Tenant; provided however, that, at Landlord's option, or if Tenant fails to make such repairs, Landlord may, but need not, make such repairs and replacements, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof, including a percentage of the cost thereof (to be uniformly established for the Building and/or the Project) sufficient to reimburse Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs or expenses arising from Landlord's involvement with such repairs and replacements forthwith upon being billed for same, which fee shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the total cost of such work.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for repairs to the exterior walls, foundation and roof of the Building, the structural portions of the floors

  of the Building, and the base building systems and equipment of the Building, except to the extent that such repairs are required due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant; provided, however, that if such repairs are due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, Landlord shall nevertheless make such repairs at Tenant's expense, or, if covered by Landlord's insurance, Tenant shall only be obligated to pay any deductible in connection therewith.  Following advance written notice to Tenant (except in the case of emergency), Landlord may, but shall not be required to, enter the Premises at all reasonable times to make such repairs, alterations, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Project or to any equipment located in the Project as Landlord shall desire or deem necessary or as Landlord may be required to do by governmental or quasi-governmental authority or court order or decree.  During any such entry by Landlord in the Premises, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid interfering with Tenant's business operations in the Premises.  Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of subsection 1 of Section 1932 and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code or under any similar law, statute, or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

  ARTICLE 8

ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS

  8.1	Landlord's Consent to Alterations.  Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises or any mechanical, plumbing or HVAC facilities or systems pertaining to the Premises (collectively, the "Alterations") without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed by Landlord, provided it shall be deemed reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any Alteration which adversely affects the structural portions or the systems or equipment of the Building or is visible from the exterior of the Building.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make Alterations following ten (10) business days' notice to Landlord, but without Landlord's prior consent, to the extent that such Alterations are decorative only (i.e., installation of carpeting or painting of the Premises).  Tenant shall be the owner of all furnishings, equipment, and personal property of any type in the Premises which are not paid for from funds provided by Landlord and not permanently affixed to the Premises (collectively, the "Personal Property"). Tenant retains all rights to applicable depreciation deductions and tax credits arising from such ownership of the Personal Property.

  8.2	Manner of Construction.  Landlord may impose, as a condition of its consent to any and all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that Tenant utilize for such purposes only contractors, subcontractors, materials, mechanics and materialmen selected by Tenant from a list provided and approved by Landlord, the requirement that upon Landlord's request, Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, remove such Alterations upon the expiration or any early termination of the Lease Term, subject to Section 8.5, below.  Tenant shall construct such Alterations and perform such repairs in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformance with any and all applicable federal, state, county or municipal laws, rules and regulations and pursuant to a valid building permit, issued by the city in which the Building is located all in conformance with Landlord's construction rules and regulations; provided, however, that prior to commencing to construct any Alteration, Tenant shall meet with Landlord to discuss Landlord's design parameters and code compliance issues.  In the event Tenant performs any Alterations in the Premises which require or give rise to governmentally required changes to the "Base Building," as that term is defined below, then Landlord shall, at Tenant's expense, make such changes to the Base Building.  The "Base Building" shall include the structural portions of the Building, and the public restrooms, elevators, exit stairwells and the systems and equipment located in the internal core of the Building on the floor or floors on which the Premises are located.  In performing the work of any such Alterations, Tenant shall have the work performed in such manner so as not to obstruct access to the Project or any portion thereof, by any other tenant of the Project, and so as not to obstruct the business of Landlord or other tenants in the Project.  Tenant shall not use (and upon notice from Landlord shall cease using) contractors, services, workmen, labor, materials or equipment that, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, would disturb labor harmony with the workforce or trades engaged in performing other work, labor or services in or about the Building, Project or Common Areas and/or that otherwise results in picketing or other labor disturbances at the Project and/or areas adjacent thereto.  In addition to Tenant's obligations under Article 9 of this Lease, upon completion

  of any Alterations, Tenant agrees to cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the recorder of the county in which the Building is located in accordance with Section 8182 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, and Tenant shall deliver to the Project construction manager a reproducible copy of the "as built" drawings of the Alterations as well as all permits, approvals and other documents issued by any governmental agency in connection with the Alterations.

  8.3	Payment for Improvements.  If payment is made by Tenant directly to contractors, Tenant shall (i) comply with Landlord's requirements for final lien releases and waivers in connection with Tenant's payment for work to contractors, and (ii) sign Landlord's standard contractor's rules and regulations.  If Tenant orders any work directly from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the cost of such work to compensate Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs and expenses arising from Landlord's involvement with such work.  If Tenant does not order any work directly from Landlord, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with Landlord's review of such work.  At Landlord's option, prior to the commencement of construction of any Alteration, Tenant shall provide Landlord with the reasonably anticipated cost thereof, which Landlord shall disburse during construction pursuant to Landlord's standard, commercially reasonable disbursement procedure.

  8.4	Construction Insurance.  In addition to the requirements of Article 10 of this Lease, in the event that Tenant makes any Alterations, prior to the commencement of such Alterations, Tenant shall provide Landlord with evidence that Tenant carries "Builder's All Risk" insurance in an amount approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably require, it being understood and agreed that all of such Alterations shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to Article 10 of this Lease immediately upon completion thereof.  In addition, Tenant's contractors and subcontractors shall be required to carry Commercial General Liability Insurance in an amount approved by Landlord and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of Article 10 of this Lease.  Landlord may, in its discretion, require Tenant to obtain a lien and completion bond or some alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-obligee.

  8.5	Landlord's Property.  All Alterations, improvements, fixtures, equipment and/or appurtenances which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises, from time to time, shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and shall be and become the property of Landlord, except that Tenant may remove any Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment which Tenant can substantiate to Landlord have not been paid for with any Tenant improvement allowance funds provided to Tenant by Landlord, provided Tenant repairs any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and returns the affected portion of the Premises to a building standard tenant improved condition as reasonably determined by Landlord.  Furthermore, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant prior to the end of the Lease Term, or given following any earlier termination of this Lease, require Tenant, at Tenant's expense, to remove any Alterations and/or improvements and/or systems and equipment within the Premises and to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and return the affected portion of the Premises to a building standard tenant improved condition as reasonably determined by Landlord; provided, however, if, in connection with its notice to Landlord with respect to any such Alterations, (x) Tenant requests Landlord’s decision with regard to the removal of such Alterations, and (y) Landlord thereafter agrees in writing to waive the removal requirement with regard to such Alterations, then Tenant shall not be required to so remove such Alterations.  If Tenant fails to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal of any Alterations and/or improvements and/or systems and equipment in the Premises and return the affected portion of the Premises to a building standard tenant improved condition as reasonably determined by Landlord, Landlord may do so and may charge the cost thereof to Tenant.  Tenant hereby protects, defends, indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from any liability, cost, obligation, expense or claim of lien in any manner relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing of any such Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment in, on or about the Premises, which obligations of Tenant shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

  8.6	Initial Alterations.  Tenant, following the Possession Date and payment to Landlord of all prepaid Rent amounts and the Security Deposits required under the Lease, shall have the right to perform alterations and improvements in the Premises (the "Initial Alterations") in accordance with plans to be prepared by Tenant and

  approved in advance by Landlord (the "Approved Plans").  The Initial Alterations shall be treated as Alterations under this Article 8 and Tenant and its contractors shall not have the right to perform Initial Alterations in the Premises unless and until Tenant has complied with all of the terms and conditions of this Article 8.  Tenant shall be required to obtain all permits and approvals, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, which are required to construct the Initial Alterations.  Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time tenant improvement allowance (the "Allowance") in the amount of up to, but not exceeding, Four Dollars ($4.00) per rentable square foot of the Premises for the costs relating to the Initial Alterations.  Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any cash payment or credit against Rent or otherwise for any unused portion of the Allowance which is not used to pay for the Initial Alterations.  Provided that Tenant is not in default of any of its obligations under this Lease, then following Tenant's substantial completion of the Initial Alterations and Tenant's commencement of business operations from the Premises, Landlord shall make a one-time disbursement from the Allowance in the form of a check made payable to Tenant for the costs incurred by Tenant for the Initial Alterations, which disbursement shall be made by Landlord within thirty (30) days following receipt of the following from Tenant: (A) a written request for payment from Tenant; (B) invoices from all subcontractors, laborers, materialmen and suppliers ("Tenant's Agents") used by Tenant in connection with the Initial Alterations for labor rendered and materials delivered to the Premises for the Initial Alterations; (C) executed unconditional mechanics' lien releases from all of Tenant's Agents in such form and content as required by Landlord; (D) a certificate of occupancy for the Premises; and (E) all other information reasonably requested by Landlord.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.6 to the contrary, in no event will Tenant be entitled to receive any portion of the Allowance with respect to any of the Initial Alterations that have not been completed within nine (9) months after the Lease Commencement Date. 

  ARTICLE 9

COVENANT AGAINST LIENS

  Tenant shall keep the Project and Premises free from any liens or encumbrances arising out of the work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant, and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, judgments or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of same or in connection therewith.  Tenant shall give Landlord notice at least twenty (20) days prior to the commencement of any such work on the Premises (or such additional time as may be necessary under applicable laws) to afford Landlord the opportunity of posting and recording appropriate notices of non-responsibility.  Tenant shall remove any such lien or encumbrance by bond or otherwise within ten (10) business days after notice by Landlord, and if Tenant shall fail to do so, Landlord may pay the amount necessary to remove such lien or encumbrance, without being responsible for investigating the validity thereof.  The amount so paid shall be deemed Additional Rent under this Lease payable upon demand, without limitation as to other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease.  Nothing contained in this Lease shall authorize Tenant to do any act which shall subject Landlord's title to the Building or Premises to any liens or encumbrances whether claimed by operation of law or express or implied contract.  Any claim to a lien or encumbrance upon the Building or Premises arising in connection with any such work or respecting the Premises not performed by or at the request of Landlord shall be null and void, or at Landlord's option shall attach only against Tenant's interest in the Premises and shall in all respects be subordinate to Landlord's title to the Project, Building and Premises.

  ARTICLE 10

INSURANCE

  10.1	Indemnification and Waiver.  Tenant hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises from any cause whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any personal injuries resulting from a slip and fall in, upon or about the Premises) and agrees that Landlord, its partners, subpartners and their respective officers, agents, and employees (collectively, "Landlord Parties") shall not be liable for, and are hereby released from any responsibility for, any damage either to person or property or resulting from the loss of use thereof, which damage is sustained by Tenant or by other persons claiming through Tenant, except in each case to the extent arising out of Landlord’s gross negligence of willful misconduct.  Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, and

  hold harmless the Landlord Parties from any and all loss, cost, damage, expense and liability (including without limitation court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) (collectively, "Claims") incurred in connection with or arising from any cause in, on or about the Premises (including, but not limited to, a slip and fall), any acts, omissions or negligence of Tenant or of any person claiming by, through or under Tenant, "Transferees" (as such term is defined in Section 14.1 below), or of the contractors, agents, servants, employees, invitees, guests or licensees of Tenant or its Transferees or any such person (collectively, "Tenant Parties"), in, on or about the Project or any breach of the terms of this Lease, either prior to, during, or after the expiration of the Lease Term, provided that Tenant's indemnity shall, in no event, extend to loss of profits, loss of business or other consequential damages incurred by Landlord or any Landlord Parties.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.1 to the contrary, the foregoing assumption of risk, release and indemnity shall not apply to any Claims to the extent resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord Parties, and not insured (or required to be insured) by Tenant under this Lease (collectively, the "Excluded Claims"), and Landlord shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless Tenant and Tenant's officers, agents and employees (collectively, "Tenant Parties") from and against any such Excluded Claims, but only to the extent Landlord's liability is not waived and released by Tenant pursuant to the terms of Section 10.5 of this Lease (provided, however, that Landlord's indemnity shall, in no event, extend to loss of profits, loss of business or other consequential damages incurred by Tenant or any Tenant Parties).  Each party's agreement to indemnify the other pursuant to this Section 10.1 is not intended and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.  Should Landlord be named as a defendant in any suit brought against Tenant in connection with or arising out of Tenant's occupancy of the Premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord its costs and expenses incurred in such suit, including without limitation, its actual professional fees such as reasonable appraisers', accountants' and attorneys' fees.  The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease with respect to any claims or liability arising in connection with any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination.  

  10.2	Tenant's Compliance With Landlord's Fire and Casualty Insurance.  Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, comply with all insurance company requirements pertaining to the use of the Premises.  If Tenant's conduct or use of the Premises causes any increase in the premium for such insurance policies then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any such increase. Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations or requirements of the American Insurance Association (formerly the National Board of Fire Underwriters) and with any similar body.

  10.3	Tenant's Insurance.  Tenant shall maintain the following coverages in the following amounts.  Landlord makes no representation or warranty to Tenant that the amount of insurance required to be carried by Tenant under the terms of this Lease is adequate to fully protect Tenant's interests.  Tenant is encouraged to evaluate its insurance needs and obtain whatever additional types or amounts of insurance that it may deem desirable or appropriate.

  10.3.1	Commercial General Liability Insurance on an occurrence form covering the insured against claims of bodily injury, personal injury and property damage (including loss of use thereof) arising out of Tenant's operations, and contractual liabilities (covering the performance by Tenant of its indemnity agreements) including a Broad Form endorsement covering the insuring provisions of this Lease and the performance by Tenant of the indemnity agreements set forth in Section 10.1 of this Lease, and including products and completed operations coverage, for limits of liability on a per location basis of not less than:

  the Premises installed by, for, or at the expense of Tenant, (ii) the Initial Alterations and any other improvements which exist in the Premises as of the Lease Commencement Date (excluding the Base Building) (the "Original Improvements"), and (iii) all other improvements, alterations and additions to the Premises.  Such insurance shall be written on an "all risks" of physical loss or damage basis, for the full replacement cost value (subject to reasonable deductible amounts) new without deduction for depreciation of the covered items and in amounts that meet any co-insurance clauses of the policies of insurance and shall include coverage for damage or other loss caused by fire or other peril including, but not limited to, vandalism and malicious mischief, theft, water damage of any type, including sprinkler leakage, bursting or stoppage of pipes, and explosion, and providing business interruption coverage for a period of one year.

  10.3.3	Worker's Compensation and Employer's Liability or other similar insurance pursuant to all applicable state and local statutes and regulations.

  10.4	Form of Policies.  The minimum limits of policies of insurance required of Tenant under this Lease shall in no event limit the liability of Tenant under this Lease.  Such insurance shall (i) name Landlord, and any other party the Landlord so specifies, as an additional insured, including Landlord's managing agent, if any; (ii) specifically cover the liability assumed by Tenant under this Lease, including, but not limited to, Tenant's obligations under Section 10.1 of this Lease; (iii) be issued by an insurance company which is approved in advance by Landlord and licensed to do business in the State of California; (iv) be primary and noncontributory insurance as to all claims thereunder and provide that any insurance carried by Landlord is excess and is non-contributing with any insurance requirement of Tenant; (v) be in form and content reasonably acceptable to Landlord; and (vi) provide that said insurance shall not be canceled or coverage changed unless thirty (30) days' prior written notice shall have been given to Landlord and any mortgagee of Landlord.  Tenant shall deliver said policy or policies or certificates thereof to Landlord on or before the Lease Commencement Date and at least thirty (30) days before the expiration dates thereof.  Further, Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to request copies of policies of Tenant's insurance required hereunder, which Tenant shall thereafter provide within ten (10) business days.  In the event Tenant shall fail to procure such insurance, or to deliver such policies or certificate, Landlord may, at its option, procure such policies for the account of Tenant, and the cost thereof shall be paid to Landlord within five (5) days after delivery to Tenant of bills therefor.

  10.5	Subrogation.  Landlord and Tenant intend that their respective property loss risks shall be borne by reasonable insurance carriers to the extent above provided, and Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to look solely to, and seek recovery only from, their respective insurance carriers in the event of a property loss to the extent that such coverage is agreed to be provided hereunder.  The parties each hereby waive all rights and claims against each other for such losses, and waive all rights of subrogation of their respective insurers, provided such waiver of subrogation shall not affect the right of the insured to recover thereunder.  The parties agree that their respective insurance policies are now, or shall be, endorsed such that the waiver of subrogation shall not affect the right of the insured to recover thereunder, so long as no material additional premium is charged therefor.

  10.6	Additional Insurance Obligations.  Tenant shall carry and maintain during the entire Lease Term, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, increased amounts of the insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Article 10 and such other reasonable types of insurance coverage and in such reasonable amounts covering the Premises and Tenant's operations therein, as may be reasonably requested by Landlord, but in no event in excess of the amounts and types of insurance then being required by landlords of buildings comparable to and in the vicinity of the Building.

DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION

  11.1	Repair of Damage to Premises by Landlord.  Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any damage to the Premises resulting from fire or any other casualty ("Casualty").  If the Premises or any Common Areas serving or providing access to the Premises shall be damaged by Casualty, Landlord shall promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord's reasonable control, and

  subject to all other terms of this Article 11, restore the Base Building and such Common Areas.  Such restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the Base Building and the Common Areas prior to the Casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Building or Project or any other modifications to the Common Areas deemed desirable by Landlord, which are consistent with the character of the Project, provided that access to the Premises and any common restrooms serving the Premises shall not be materially impaired.  Upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises, upon notice (the "Landlord Repair Notice") to Tenant from Landlord, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant's insurance required under Section 10.3 of this Lease, and Landlord shall repair any injury or damage to the Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Original Improvements to their original condition; provided that if the cost of such repair by Landlord exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant's insurance carrier, as assigned by Tenant, the cost of such repairs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord prior to Landlord's commencement of repair of the damage.  In the event that Landlord does not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice within sixty (60) days following the date the Casualty becomes known to Landlord, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair any injury or damage to the Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Original Improvements to their original condition, provided that, in such event, Tenant shall have no obligation to assign any insurance proceeds whatsoever to Landlord.  Whether or not Landlord delivers a Landlord Repair Notice, prior to the commencement of construction, Tenant shall submit to Landlord, for Landlord's review and approval, all plans, specifications and working drawings relating thereto, and Landlord shall select the contractors to perform such improvement work.  Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its visitors, or injury to Tenant's business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof; provided however, that if a Casualty shall have damaged the Premises or Common Areas necessary to Tenant's occupancy, and the Premises are not occupied by Tenant as a result thereof, then during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy, the Rent shall be abated in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which is unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises.  In the event that Landlord shall not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice, Tenant's right to rent abatement pursuant to the preceding sentence shall terminate as of the date which is reasonably determined by Landlord to be the date Tenant should have completed repairs to the Premises assuming Tenant used reasonable due diligence in connection therewith.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Article 11, the parties hereby agree as follows:  (i) the closure of the Project, the Building, the Common Areas, or any part thereof to protect public health shall not constitute a Casualty for purposes of this Lease, (ii) Casualty covered by this Article 11 shall require that the physical or structural integrity of the Premises, the Project, the Building, or the Common Areas is degraded as a direct result of such occurrence, and (iii) a Casualty under this Article 11 shall not be deemed to occur merely because Tenant is unable to productively use the Premises in the event that the physical and structural integrity of the Premises is undamaged.

  11.2	Landlord's Option to Repair.  Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises, Building and/or Project, and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building or Project shall be damaged by Casualty, whether or not the Premises are affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) in Landlord's reasonable judgment, repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums); (ii) the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground lease, as the case may be; (iii) the damage is not fully covered by Landlord's insurance policies; (iv) Landlord decides to rebuild the Building or Common Areas so that they will be substantially different structurally or architecturally; (v) the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term (provided that if Tenant validly exercises its option to extend the Lease Term pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Lease within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s termination notice, this subsection (v) shall not apply); or (vi) any owner of any other portion of the Project, other than Landlord, does not intend to repair the damage to such portion of the Project; provided, however, that if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord's termination right as provided above, and the repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after being commenced, Tenant may elect, no earlier

  than sixty (60) days after the date of the damage and not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.2, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease under this Section 11.2 only if each of the following conditions is satisfied: (a) the damage to the Project by Casualty was not caused by the gross negligence or intentional act of Tenant or its partners or subpartners and their respective officers, agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors; (b) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease; (c) as a result of the damage, Tenant cannot reasonably conduct business from the Premises; and, (d) as a result of the damage to the Project, Tenant does not occupy or use the Premises at all.

  11.3	Waiver of Statutory Provisions.  The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 11, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project, and any statute or regulation of the State of California, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project.

  ARTICLE 12

NONWAIVER

  No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived by either party hereto unless expressly waived in a writing signed thereby.  The waiver by either party hereto of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained.  The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent.  No acceptance of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to receive the full amount due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment or any letter accompanying such check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the full amount due.  No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Lease Term or of Tenant's right of possession hereunder, or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Lease Term or affect any notice given Tenant prior to the receipt of such monies, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit, or after final judgment for possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment.

  ARTICLE 13

CONDEMNATION

  If the whole or any part of the Premises, Building or Project shall be taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if any adjacent property or street shall be so taken or condemned, or reconfigured or vacated by such authority in such manner as to require the use, reconstruction or remodeling of any part of the Premises, Building or Project, or if Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument in lieu of such taking by eminent domain or condemnation, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the authority.  If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable square feet of the Premises is taken, or if access to the Premises is substantially impaired, in each case for a period in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the authority.  Tenant shall not because of such taking assert any claim against Landlord or the authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award or payment in connection therewith, except that Tenant

  shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant's personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claims do not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant.  All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination.  If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Rent shall be proportionately abated.  Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 13, in the event of a temporary taking of all or any portion of the Premises for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less, then this Lease shall not terminate but the Base Rent and the Additional Rent shall be abated for the period of such taking in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises.  Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease, the following governmental actions shall not constitute a taking or condemnation, either permanent or temporary: (i) an action that requires Tenant's business or the Building or Project to close during the Lease Term, and (ii) an action taken for the purpose of protecting public safety (e.g., to protect against acts of war, the spread of communicable diseases, or an infestation), and no such governmental actions shall entitle Tenant to any compensation from Landlord or any authority, or Rent abatement or any other remedy under this Lease.

  ARTICLE 14

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

  14.1	Transfers.  Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit any assignment, or other transfer of this Lease or any interest hereunder by operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or enter into any license or concession agreements or otherwise permit the occupancy or use of the Premises or any part thereof by any persons other than Tenant and its employees and contractors (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as "Transfers" and any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "Transferee").  If Tenant desires Landlord's consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the "Transfer Notice") shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the Transfer, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice, (ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the "Subject Space"), (iii) all of the terms of the proposed Transfer and the consideration therefor, including calculation of the "Transfer Premium", as that term is defined in Section 14.3 below, in connection with such Transfer, the name and address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing executed and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer, including all existing operative documents to be executed to evidence such Transfer or the agreements incidental or related to such Transfer, provided that Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to utilize Landlord's commercially reasonable, standard  form of consent agreement in connection with the documentation of such Transfer, further provided that Landlord, at Tenant or any Transferee’s request, shall enter into a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement with respect to such documents, (iv) current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer, partner or owner thereof, business credit and personal references and history of the proposed Transferee and any other information reasonably required by Landlord which will enable Landlord to determine the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of the proposed Transferee, nature of such Transferee's business and proposed use of the Subject Space, and (v) an executed estoppel certificate from Tenant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G.  Any Transfer made without Landlord's prior written consent shall, at Landlord's option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at Landlord's option, constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease.  Whether or not Landlord consents to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable review and processing fees, as well as any reasonable professional fees (including, without limitation, attorneys', accountants', architects', engineers' and consultants' fees) incurred by Landlord, within thirty (30) days after written request by Landlord, not to exceed $2,500 for any single Transfer.

  14.2	Landlord's Consent.  Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice.  Without

  limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:

  14.2.1	The Transferee is, in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment, of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Project;

  14.2.2	The Transferee intends to use the Subject Space for purposes which are not permitted under this Lease;

  14.2.3	The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof or a nonprofit organization;

  14.2.4	The rent charged by Tenant to such Transferee during the term of such Transfer, calculated using a present value analysis, is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rent being quoted by Landlord at the time of such Transfer for comparable space in the Project for a comparable term, calculated using a present value analysis;

  14.2.5	The Transferee does not have reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities to be undertaken in connection with the Transfer, in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment ;

  14.2.6	The proposed Transfer would cause a violation of another lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease; or

  14.2.7	Either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee, (i) occupies space in the Project at the time of the request for consent, or (ii) is negotiating with Landlord or has negotiated with Landlord during the six (6) month period immediately preceding the date Landlord receives the Transfer Notice, to lease space in the Project.

  Landlord shall respond to Tenant’s request for a transfer within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof.  If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.2 (and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord may have under Section 14.4 of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord's consent, but not later than the expiration of said six-month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any material changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the Transfer Notice (i) such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section 14.2, or (ii) which would cause the proposed Transfer to be more favorable to the Transferee than the terms set forth in Tenant's original Transfer Notice, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this Article 14 (including Landlord's right of recapture, if any, under Section 14.4 of this Lease).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under Section 14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 14, its remedies shall be a suit for contract damages (other than damages for injury to, or interference with, Tenant's business including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring), an injunction for the relief sought and monetary damages, or declaratory judgment, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee.

  14.3	Transfer Premium.  If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which the parties hereby agree is reasonable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any "Transfer Premium," as that term is defined in this Section 14.3, received by Tenant from such Transferee.  "Transfer Premium" shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by such Transferee in connection with the Transfer in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the Premises is transferred.  "Transfer Premium" shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection with such

  Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such Transfer.  The determination of the amount of Landlord's applicable share of the Transfer Premium shall be made on a monthly basis as rent or other consideration is received by Tenant under the Transfer.  

  14.4	Intentionally Omitted.

  14.5	Effect of Transfer.  If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the terms and conditions of this Lease shall in no way be deemed to have been waived or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, promptly after execution, an original executed copy of all documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (iv) Tenant shall furnish upon Landlord's request a complete statement, certified by an independent certified public accountant, or Tenant's chief financial officer, setting forth in detail the computation of any Transfer Premium Tenant has derived and shall derive from such Transfer, and (v) no Transfer relating to this Lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto, whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall relieve Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease from any liability under this Lease, including, without limitation, in connection with the Subject Space.  In the event that Tenant subleases all or any portion of the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Article 14, Tenant shall require such subtenant to carry and maintain the same insurance coverage terms and limits as are required of Tenant, in accordance with the terms of Article 10 of this Lease.  

  14.6	Additional Transfers.  For purposes of this Lease, the term "Transfer" shall also include (i) if Tenant is a partnership, the withdrawal or change, voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the partners, or transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of partnership interests, within a twelve (12)-month period, or the dissolution of the partnership without immediate reconstitution thereof, and (ii) if Tenant is a closely held corporation (i.e., whose stock is not publicly held and not traded through an exchange or over the counter), (A) the dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant or (B) the sale or other transfer of an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting shares of Tenant (other than to immediate family members by reason of gift or death), within a twelve (12)-month period, or (C) the sale, mortgage, hypothecation or pledge of an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) or more of the value of the unencumbered assets of Tenant within a twelve (12)-month period. In furtherance of the foregoing, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord acknowledges that the Original Tenant named herein is a publicly traded corporation which has equity interests trading on the NASDAQ stock exchange, and Landlord hereby agrees that, for so long as the named Tenant remains a publicly-traded corporation, any transfer of its equity interests whatsoever, including, without limitation, any sale, redemption, split, buy-back, ESOP, consolidation, or by acquisition (in whatever form) of another entity, whether or not such transfer or transfers results in a change in control, shall not be a "Transfer" for purposes of this Lease and shall in no way require Landlord’s consent or be subject to the terms of this Article 14.

  14.7	Occurrence of Default.  Any Transfer hereunder shall be subordinate and subject to the provisions of this Lease, and if this Lease shall be terminated during the term of any Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to:  (i) treat such Transfer as cancelled and repossess the Subject Space by any lawful means, or (ii) require that such Transferee attorn to and recognize Landlord as its landlord under any such Transfer.  If Tenant shall be in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Tenant's agent and attorney-in-fact, to direct any Transferee to make all payments under or in connection with the Transfer directly to Landlord (which Landlord shall apply towards Tenant's obligations under this Lease) until such default is cured.  Such Transferee shall rely on any representation by Landlord that Tenant is in default hereunder, without any need for confirmation thereof by Tenant.  Upon any assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing all obligations and covenants of Tenant thereafter to be performed or observed under this Lease.  No collection or acceptance of rent by Landlord from any Transferee shall be deemed a waiver of any provision of this Article 14 or the approval of any Transferee or a release of Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, whether theretofore or thereafter accruing.  In no event shall Landlord's enforcement of any provision of this Lease against any Transferee be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to enforce any term of this Lease against Tenant or any other person.  If Tenant's obligations hereunder have been guaranteed, Landlord's consent to any Transfer shall not be effective unless the guarantor also consents to such Transfer.

  14.8	Non-Transfers.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 14, (i) an assignment of Tenant's interest in this Lease, or a subletting of all or a portion of the Premises, to an affiliate of Tenant (i.e., an entity which is controlled by, controls, or is under common control with, Tenant), (ii) an assignment of Tenant's interest in this Lease to an entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or (iii) an assignment of Tenant's interest in this Lease to an entity which is the resulting entity of a merger or consolidation of Tenant during the Lease Term, shall not be deemed a Transfer under this Article 14 (any such assignment or subletting described in items (i) through (iii) of this Section 14.8 hereinafter referred to as a "Permitted Non-Transfer" and any such assignee or sublessee pursuant to a Permitted Non-Transfer hereinafter referred to as a "Permitted Non-Transferee"), provided that (A) Tenant notifies Landlord of any such Permitted Non-Transfer and promptly supplies Landlord with any documents or information reasonably requested by Landlord regarding such Permitted Non-Transfer or such Permitted Non-Transferee, (B) such Permitted Non-Transfer is not a subterfuge by Tenant to avoid its obligations under this Lease, and (C) such Permitted Non-Transferee shall have a tangible net worth (not including good will as an asset) computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("Net Worth") at least equal to the greater of (1) the Net Worth of Tenant immediately prior to such Permitted Non-Transfer, or (2) the Net Worth of the Original Tenant on the date of this Lease.  As used in this Section 14.8, "control" shall mean the ownership, directly or indirectly, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting interest in, any person or entity.  As used herein, a "Permitted Non-Transferee Assignee" shall mean a Permitted Non-Transferee which is an assignee of Tenant's entire interest in this Lease.

  ARTICLE 15

SURRENDER OF PREMISES; OWNERSHIP AND 
REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES

  15.1	Surrender of Premises.  No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically acknowledged in writing by Landlord.  The delivery of keys to the Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated.  The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or subtenancies affecting the Premises or terminate any or all such sublessees or subtenancies.

  15.2	Removal of Tenant Property by Tenant.  Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in broom clean, good condition as when Tenant took possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear, casualty, condemnation, and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted.  Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, free-standing cabinet work, movable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal.

  ARTICLE 16

HOLDING OVER

  If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination thereof, such tenancy shall be a tenancy‐at‐sufferance, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such

  case Rent shall be payable at a daily rate equal to the product of (i) the daily Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease, and (ii) a percentage equal to 150% during the first two (2) months immediately following the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, and 200% thereafter.  Such tenancy shall be subject to every other applicable term, covenant and agreement contained herein.  Nothing contained in this Article 16 shall be construed as consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease.  If Tenant holds over without Landlord's express written consent, and tenders payment of rent for any period beyond the expiration of the Lease Term by way of check (whether directly to Landlord, its agents, or to a lock box) or wire transfer, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the cashing of such check or acceptance of such wire shall be considered inadvertent and not be construed as creating a month-to-month tenancy, provided Landlord refunds such payment to Tenant promptly upon learning that such check has been cashed or wire transfer received.  The provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law.  If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.  Tenant agrees that any proceedings necessary to recover possession of the Premises, whether before or after expiration of the Lease Term, shall be considered an action to enforce the terms of this Lease for purposes of the awarding of any attorney’s fees in connection therewith.

  ARTICLE 17

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES

  Within ten (10) business days following a request in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit G, attached hereto (or such other commercially reasonable form as may be required by any prospective or existing mortgagee or purchaser of the Project, or any portion thereof, including in foreclosure proceedings), indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Landlord's mortgagee or prospective mortgagee.  Any such certificate may be relied upon by any prospective or existing mortgagee or purchaser of all or any portion of the Project.  At any time during the Lease Term, but not more than once per calendar year (except in connection with a sale, financing or refinancing of the Project or any portion thereof, or if Tenant is in monetary default under this Lease beyond any applicable cure periods), Landlord may require Tenant to provide Landlord with a current financial statement and financial statements of the two (2) years prior to the current financial statement year.  Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, if such is the normal practice of Tenant, shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant.  This requirement shall not apply to Tenant so long as Tenant is, or is directly or indirectly owned by, a publicly traded company.  Failure of Tenant to timely execute, acknowledge and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception.  

  ARTICLE 18

SUBORDINATION

  This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future ground or underlying leases of the Building or Project and to the lien of any mortgage, trust deed or other hypothecation for security now or hereafter in force against the Building or Project or any part thereof, if any, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages, trust deeds or other hypothecation for security, or the lessors under such ground lease or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto.  Such subordination shall be effective without the necessity of the execution by Tenant of any additional document for the

  purpose of evidencing or effecting such subordination.  Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed in lieu thereof (or if any ground lease is terminated), to attorn, without any deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the lienholder or purchaser or any successors thereto upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof (or to the ground lessor), if so requested to do so by such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor as the lessor under this Lease, provided such lienholder or purchaser or ground lessor shall agree to accept this Lease and not disturb Tenant's occupancy, so long as Tenant timely pays the rent and observes and performs the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be observed and performed by Tenant.  Upon such attornment, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if it were a direct lease between the successor Landlord and Tenant, upon all of the terms, conditions, and covenants as set forth herein; provided, however, such successor Landlord shall in no event be (i) bound by any payment of Rent for more than one month in advance, (ii) bound by any material amendment or modification of this Lease made without the consent of such lienholder or the ground lessor, (iii) liable for damages for any breach of any prior landlord, (iv) subject to any offsets, defenses or counterclaims that Tenant may have against any prior landlord, or (v) liable to Tenant for any security deposit unless it is actually delivered to such successor landlord.  Landlord's interest herein may be assigned as security at any time to any lienholder.  Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days of request by Landlord, or any such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor, execute such further commercially reasonable instruments or assurances as the requesting party may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any such mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases; provided that any subordination agreement requested must include non-disturbance provisions consistent with this Article 18, and the attornment of Tenant as provided herein.  Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale.

  Tenant agrees to give any lienholder, by registered or certified mail, a copy of any notice of default served upon Landlord by Tenant, provided that prior to such notice Tenant has received notice (by way of recording of an assignment of rents and leases, or otherwise) of the address of such lienholder.  Tenant further agrees that if Landlord fails to cure such default, then such lienholder shall have an additional thirty (30) days after the later of receipt of notice thereof or the expiration of any time period imposed on Landlord to cure, within which to cure such default or if such default cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary to cure such default (including commencement of foreclosure proceedings).  

  ARTICLE 19

DEFAULTS; REMEDIES

  19.1	Events of Default.  The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default of this Lease by Tenant:

  19.1.1	Any failure by Tenant to pay any Rent or any other charge required to be paid under this Lease, or any part thereof, when due, provided that Tenant shall have the opportunity to cure such default for a period of five (5) days after written notice of the default from Landlord to Tenant (provided that Landlord shall only be obligated to provide such notice to Tenant one (1) time during any calendar year); or

  19.1.2	Except where a specific time period is otherwise set forth for Tenant's performance in this Lease, in which event the failure to perform by Tenant within such time period shall be a default by Tenant under this Section 19.1.2, any failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other provision, covenant or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant where such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that if the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within a thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if it diligently commences such cure within such period and thereafter diligently proceeds to rectify and cure such default; or

  19.1.3	Abandonment of all or a substantial portion of the Premises by Tenant if accompanied by the non-payment of Rent as and when due; or

  19.1.4	The failure by Tenant to observe or perform according to the provisions of Articles 5, 14, 17 or 18 of this Lease where, in each instance, such failure continues for more than three (3) days after notice from Landlord that such obligation is past due.

  Any notices to be provided by Landlord under this Section 19.1 shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under Section 1161 et seq. of the Code of Civil Procedure, and may be served on Tenant in the manner allowed for service of notices under this Lease.

  19.2	Remedies Upon Default.  Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity (all of which remedies shall be distinct, separate and cumulative), the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies (including, without limitation, during any eviction moratorium, to the extent allowed by Applicable Law), each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever.

  19.2.1	Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the 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 Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim or damages therefor; and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:

  (i)	The worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus

  (ii)	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

  (iii)	The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

  (iv)	Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, specifically including but not limited to, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant; and

  (v)	At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.

  The term "rent" as used in this Section 19.2 shall be deemed to be and to mean all sums of every nature required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, whether to Landlord or to others.  As used in Sections 19.2.1(i) and (ii), above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by allowing interest at the rate set forth in Article 25 of this Lease, but in no case greater than the maximum amount of such interest permitted by law.  As used in Section 19.2.1(iii) above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be 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 (1%).  

  19.2.2	Landlord shall have the remedy described in 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 the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations).  Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.

  19.2.3	Landlord shall at all times have the rights and remedies (which shall be cumulative with each other and cumulative and in addition to those rights and remedies available under Sections 19.2.1 and 19.2.2, above, or any law or other provision of this Lease), without prior demand or notice except as required by applicable law, to seek any declaratory, injunctive or other equitable relief, and specifically enforce this Lease, or restrain or enjoin a violation or breach of any provision hereof.

  19.3	Subleases of Tenant.  Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this Article 19, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord's sole discretion, succeed to Tenant's interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements.  In the event of Landlord's election to succeed to Tenant's interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.

  19.4	Efforts to Relet.  No re-entry or repossession, repairs, maintenance, changes, alterations and additions, reletting, appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord's interests hereunder, or any other action or omission by Landlord shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease or Tenant's right to possession, or to accept a surrender of the Premises, nor shall same operate to release Tenant in whole or in part from any of Tenant's obligations hereunder, unless express written notice of such intention is sent by Landlord to Tenant.  Tenant hereby irrevocably waives any right otherwise available under any law to redeem or reinstate this Lease.

  19.5	Landlord Default.  Landlord shall be in default under this Lease if Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder following the Lease Commencement Date and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after Tenant delivers to Landlord written notice specifying such failure; however, if such failure cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period, but Landlord commences to cure such failure within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently pursues the curing thereof to completion, then Landlord shall not be in default hereunder or liable for damages therefor.  Except where the provisions of this Lease grant Tenant an express, exclusive remedy, or expressly deny Tenant a remedy, Tenant's exclusive remedy for Landlord's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease shall be limited to damages, injunctive relief, or specific performance; in each case, Landlord's liability or obligations with respect to any such remedy shall be limited as provided in Section 29.13.

  ARTICLE 20

COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT

  Landlord covenants that Tenant, on paying the Rent, charges for services and other payments herein reserved and on keeping, observing and performing all the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept, observed and performed, shall, during the Lease Term, peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises subject to the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements hereof without interference by any persons lawfully claiming by or through Landlord.  The foregoing covenant is in lieu of any other covenant express or implied.

  ARTICLE 21

SECURITY DEPOSIT

  Concurrently with Tenant's execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a security deposit (the "Security Deposit") in the amount set forth in Section 8 of the Summary, as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this Lease.  If Tenant defaults with respect to any provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, the removal of property and the repair of resultant damage, Landlord may, without notice to Tenant, but shall not be required to apply all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default and Tenant shall, upon demand therefor, restore the Security Deposit to its original amount (including, without limitation, during any eviction moratorium, to

  the extent allowed by Applicable Law).  Any unapplied portion of the Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant, or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder, within sixty (60) days following the expiration of the Lease Term.  Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit.  Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, or any successor statute and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, which (i) establish the time frame by which a landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (ii) provide that a landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by a tenant or to clean the premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in this Section above and/or those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage caused by Tenant's default of this Lease, including, but not limited to, all damages or rent due upon termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code.

SIGNS

  23.1	Identifying Signage.  Tenant's identifying signage on the floor of the Building and on one (1) strip in the lobby directory for the Building shall be provided by Landlord, at Landlord's initial cost, and such signage shall be comparable to that used by Landlord for other tenants and shall comply with Landlord's then-current Building standard signage program.

  23.2	Prohibited Signage and Other Items.  Any signs, notices, logos, pictures, names or advertisements which are installed and that have not been separately approved by Landlord may be removed without notice by Landlord at the sole expense of Tenant.  Tenant may not install any signs on the exterior or roof of the Project or the Common Areas.  Any signs, window coverings, or blinds (even if the same are located behind the Landlord-approved window coverings for the Building), or other items visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building, shall be subject to the prior approval of Landlord, in its sole discretion.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, the entrance to and from the Premises and the exterior storefront of the Premises shall conform with Landlord's building standard for the Project in all respects as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, any glass surfaces, door frames, window mullions, shades or blinds, suite identification signage, and lettering font for any signage, and the dimensions, coloring, materials and specifications for the foregoing.

  ARTICLE 24

COMPLIANCE WITH LAW

  Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises or the Project which will in any way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or other rule, directive, order, regulation, guideline, or requirement of any governmental entity or governmental agency now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated (collectively, "Applicable Laws").  At its sole cost and expense, Tenant shall promptly comply with all Applicable Laws which relate to (i) Tenant's use of, or requirements to cease or reduce Tenant's business operations in or Tenant's use of, the Premises, (ii) tenant improvements in the Premises (including, without limitation, any Alterations), or (iii) the Base Building, but as to the Base Building, only to the extent such obligations are triggered by tenant improvements in the Premises (including, without limitation any Alterations) or Tenant's use of the Premises for non-typical general office use.  Should any standard or regulation now or hereafter be imposed on Landlord or Tenant by a state, federal or local governmental body charged with the establishment, regulation and enforcement of occupational, health or safety standards for employers, employees, landlords or tenants, then Tenant agrees, at its sole cost and expense, to comply promptly with such standards or regulations.  Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to make

  all alterations to the Premises as are required to comply with the governmental rules, regulations, requirements or standards described in this Article 24.  The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.

  For purposes of Section 1938(a) of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges, that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp).  As required by Section 1938(e) of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby states as follows:  "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law.  Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant.  The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises."  In furtherance of the foregoing, notwithstanding anything in this Article 24 to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:  (a) any CASp inspection requested by Tenant shall be conducted, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, by a CASp designated by Landlord, and only in accordance with Landlord's reasonable rules and requirements; and (b) Tenant, at its cost, is responsible for making any repairs within the Premises to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards; and, if anything done by or for Tenant in its use or occupancy of the Premises shall require repairs to the Building or Project (outside the Premises) to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, for the cost to Landlord of performing such repairs.

  ARTICLE 25

LATE CHARGES

  If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt of written notice from Landlord that said amount is due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount plus any reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due hereunder.  The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner.  In addition to the late charge described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid within ten (10) days after the date they are due shall bear interest from the date when due until paid at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the annual "Bank Prime Loan" rate cited in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release Publication H.15, published on the first Tuesday of each calendar month (or such other comparable index as Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably agree upon if such rate ceases to be published) plus two (2) percentage points, and (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.

  ARTICLE 26

LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT; PAYMENTS BY TENANT

  26.1	Landlord's Cure.  All covenants and agreements to be kept or performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent, except to the extent, if any, otherwise expressly provided herein.  If Tenant shall fail to perform any obligation under this Lease, and such failure shall continue in excess of the time allowed under Section 19.1.2, above, unless a specific time period is otherwise stated in this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant's part without waiving its rights based upon any default of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligations hereunder.

Tenant's obligations under this Section 26.2 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term.

  ARTICLE 27

ENTRY BY LANDLORD

  Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times and upon reasonable written notice to Tenant of at least twenty-four (24) hours (except in the case of an emergency), which notice may be provided pursuant to e-mail, to enter the Premises to (i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, or to current or prospective mortgagees, ground or underlying lessors or insurers or, during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, to prospective tenants; (iii) post notices of nonresponsibility; or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the Building, or for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building or the Building's systems and equipment.  Such entry rights are subject to Tenant's right to escort Landlord or Landlord's representatives through the Premises, provided that Tenant's failure to have an agent of Tenant present at the time of Landlord's entry shall not prevent or otherwise delay Landlord's entry.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 27, Landlord may enter the Premises at any time to (A) perform services required of Landlord, including janitorial service; (B) take possession due to any breach of this Lease in the manner provided herein; and (C) perform any covenants of Tenant which Tenant fails to perform.  Landlord may make any such entries without the abatement of Rent, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, and may take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes.  Tenant hereby waives any claims for damages or for any injuries or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby.  For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant.  In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises.  Any entry into the Premises by Landlord in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises.  No provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as otherwise expressly agreed to be performed by Landlord herein.

  ARTICLE 28

TENANT PARKING

  Tenant shall be permitted to use, commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, the amount of parking spaces set forth in Section 9 of the Summary, leased free of charge through the initial Lease Term, on a monthly basis throughout the Lease Term, which parking spaces shall pertain to the Project parking facility.  Tenant's continued right to use the parking spaces is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all reasonable rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the parking facility where the parking spaces are located (including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord and the prohibition of vehicle repair and maintenance activities in the Project's parking facilities), Tenant's cooperation in seeing that Tenant's employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations and Tenant not being in default under this Lease.  Tenant's use of the Project parking facility shall be at Tenant's sole risk and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever for damage to the vehicles of Tenant, its employees and/or visitors, or for other personal injury or property damage or theft relating to or connected with the parking rights granted herein or any of Tenant's, its employees' and/or visitors' use of the parking facilities.  Tenant's rights hereunder are subject to

  the terms of any Underlying Documents.  Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the Project parking facility at any time and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease, from time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Project parking facility for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements, provided that, for any interruption in use of Tenant’s parking spaces reasonably expected to exceed fifteen (15) consecutive business days, Landlord shall provide replacement parking, which may be off-site if within one quarter mile of the Project, or further, if coupled with reasonable shuttle service.  Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord.  The parking spaces rented by Tenant pursuant to this Article 28 are provided to Tenant solely for use by Tenant's own personnel and such spaces may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord's prior approval.  Tenant may validate visitor parking by such method or methods as the Landlord may establish, at the validation rate from time to time generally applicable to visitor parking.

The party incurring the Force Majeure (the "Affected Party") shall notify the other party as soon as reasonably possible of the particulars and likely duration of the Force Majeure event, and shall use diligent good faith efforts to avoid or minimize the adverse effects of such Force Majeure.  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.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, no event of Force Majeure shall (i) excuse Tenant's obligations to pay Rent and other charges due pursuant to this Lease, (ii) be grounds for Tenant to abate any portion of Rent due pursuant to this Lease, or entitle either party to terminate this Lease, except as allowed pursuant to Articles 11 and 13 of this Lease, (iii) excuse Tenant's obligations under Articles 5 and 24 of this Lease, or (iv) extend the occurrence of the Lease Commencement Date.

In addition to the foregoing, Operating Expenses shall also include: (1) all costs of maintaining, managing, reporting, commissioning, and re-commissioning the Project or any part thereof which is designed, renovated, modified, upgraded and/or built to be sustainable and conform with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star ® rating system and/or Design to Earn Energy Star 71 ("Energy Star Rating System"), the Green Building Initiative’s Green GlobesTM for Continual Improvement of Existing Buildings ("Green GlobesTM-CIEB") standards, the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ("LEED") rating system, or any similar program or rating system of any successor to any of the foregoing entities or of any federal, state or municipal governmental or quasi-governmental authority; (2) all costs of applying, reporting and commissioning the Project or any portion thereof to seek certification under the Energy Star Rating system, Green GlobesTM-CIEB, LEED rating system, or other similar rating system; and (3) all costs of alterations, installations, improvements, replacements, repairs and equipment whether structural or non-structural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, and whether or not required by this Lease incurred (x) in connection with any of the foregoing or (y) to contribute to the slowing of global warming, the lowering of the Project's carbon footprint or the saving of energy consumed in the Project (whether such saving is of tenant electricity or base Project energy) or (z) to comply with any "Applicable Laws," as that term is defined in Article 24 of this Lease, ordinances, rules and regulations then in effect which are intended to lower the Project's carbon footprint or save energy.

  (v)	costs associated with the operation of the business of the partnership or entity which constitutes the Landlord, as the same are distinguished from the costs of operation of the Project (which shall specifically include, but not be limited to, accounting costs associated with the operation of the Project).  Costs associated with the operation of the business of the partnership or entity which constitutes the Landlord include costs of partnership accounting and legal matters, costs of defending any lawsuits with any mortgagee (except as the actions of the Tenant may be in issue), costs of selling, syndicating, financing, mortgaging or hypothecating any of the Landlord's interest in the Project, and costs incurred in connection with any disputes between Landlord and its employees, between Landlord and Project management, or between Landlord and other tenants or occupants;

  the presence of such hazardous material or substance, in the state, and under the conditions, that it then exists in the Building or on the Project, would have then required the removal of such hazardous material or substance or other remedial or containment action with respect thereto, but only to the extent those laws were then being actively enforced by the applicable government authority.

  If Landlord is not furnishing any particular work or service (the cost of which, if performed by Landlord, would be included in Operating Expenses) to a tenant who has undertaken to perform such work or service in lieu of the performance thereof by Landlord, Operating Expenses shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the additional Operating Expenses which would reasonably have been incurred during such period by Landlord if it had at its own expense furnished such work or service to such tenant.  If the Project is not one hundred percent (100%) occupied during all or a portion of any Expense Year (including, without limitation, if any portion of the Project is unleased or is leased, but is not then being used by a tenant in the ordinary course of its business), Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment to the components of Operating Expenses for such Expense Year to determine the amount of Operating Expenses that would have been incurred had the Project been one hundred percent (100%) occupied; and the amount so determined shall be deemed to have been the amount of Operating Expenses for such Expense Year.  For purposes hereof, cost savings in components of Operating Expenses arising by reason of the cessation of use by tenants at the Project due to a Casualty, Force Majeure or other extraordinary circumstances are considered variable Operating Expenses that may be grossed up in Operating Expenses.  If Operating Expenses for the Base Year include amortized costs, or costs (including, but not limited to, costs of personnel, insurance, and increased or new services) relating to extraordinary circumstances, including, but not limited to, Casualty, or Force Majeure, boycotts, strikes, conservation surcharges, embargoes or shortages, then at such time as such costs are no longer applicable, the increased Operating Expenses attributable thereto shall be excluded from the Base Year Operating Expenses.  In no event shall the components of Direct Expenses for any Expense Year related to Project insurance, security or utility costs be less than the components of Direct Expenses related to Project insurance, security or utility costs, respectively, in the Base Year.

  1.1.5	Taxes.

  1.1.5.1	"Tax Expenses" shall mean all federal, state, county, or local governmental or municipal taxes, fees, charges or other impositions of every kind and nature, whether general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, (including, without limitation, real estate taxes, general and special assessments, transit taxes, leasehold taxes or taxes based upon the receipt of rent, including gross receipts or sales taxes applicable to the receipt of rent, unless required to be paid by Tenant, personal property taxes imposed upon the fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems and equipment, appurtenances, furniture and other personal property used in connection with the Project, or any portion thereof), which shall be paid or accrued during any Expense Year (without regard to any different fiscal year used by such governmental or municipal authority) because of or in connection with the ownership, leasing and operation of the Project, or any portion thereof.

  1.1.5.2	Tax Expenses shall include, without limitation:  (i) any tax on the rent, right to rent or other income from the Project, or any portion thereof, or as against the business of leasing the Project, or any portion thereof; (ii) any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in addition to, or in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real property tax, it being acknowledged by Tenant and Landlord that Proposition 13 was adopted by the voters of the State of California in the June 1978 election ("Proposition 13") and that assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such services as fire protection, street, sidewalk and road maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental services formerly provided without charge to property owners or occupants, and, in further recognition of the decrease in the level and quality of governmental services and amenities as a result of Proposition 13, Tax Expenses shall also include any governmental or private assessments or the Project's contribution towards a governmental or private cost-sharing agreement for the purpose of augmenting or improving the quality of services and amenities normally provided by governmental agencies; (iii) any assessment, tax, fee, levy, or charge allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or the Rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any business or gross income tax or excise tax with respect to the receipt of such rent, or upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operating, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof; and (iv) any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge, upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.

  1.1.5.3	Any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and consultants' fees) incurred in attempting to protest, reduce or minimize Tax Expenses shall be included in Tax Expenses in the Expense Year such expenses are incurred, provided that Landlord undertakes such challenges in good faith, with a reasonable expectation such challenge will be successful.  Tax refunds shall be credited against Tax Expenses and refunded to Tenant regardless of when received, based on the Expense Year to which the refund is applicable, provided that in no event shall the amount to be refunded to Tenant for any such Expense Year exceed the total amount paid by Tenant as Additional Rent under this Exhibit C for such Expense Year.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, (a) only Landlord may institute proceedings to reduce Tax Expenses and the filing of any such proceeding by Tenant without Landlord's consent shall constitute an event of default by Tenant under this Lease, and (b) Landlord shall not be obligated to file any application or institute any proceeding seeking a reduction in Tax Expenses. If Tax Expenses for any period during the Lease Term or any extension thereof are increased after payment thereof for any reason, including, without limitation, error or reassessment by applicable governmental or municipal authorities, Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand Tenant's Share of any such increased Tax Expenses.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 1.1.5 (except as set forth in Section 1.1.5.1, above), there shall be excluded from Tax Expenses (i) all excess profits taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes, federal and state income taxes, and other taxes to the extent applicable to Landlord's general or net income (as opposed to rents, receipts or income attributable to operations at the Project), (ii) any items included as Operating Expenses, (iii) any items paid by Tenant under Section 4.2 of this Lease, and (iv) any fees, penalties, interest or other expenses incurred as a result of the late payment of any Tax Expense (unless due to the actions or omissions of Tenant).  

  1.1.5.4	The amount of Tax Expenses for the Base Year attributable to the valuation of the Project, inclusive of tenant improvements, shall be known as the "Base Taxes".  If in any comparison year subsequent to the Base Year, the amount of Tax Expenses decreases below the amount of Base Taxes, then for purposes of all subsequent comparison years, including the comparison year in which such decrease in Tax Expenses occurred, the Base Taxes, and therefore the Base Year, shall be decreased by an amount equal to the decrease in Tax Expenses.

  1.1.6	"Tenant's Share" shall mean the percentage set forth in Section 6 of the Summary.  In the event either the Premises and/or the Project is expanded or reduced, Tenant's Share shall be appropriately adjusted, and, as to the Expense Year in which such change occurs, Tenant's Share for such year shall be determined on the basis of the number of days during such Expense Year that each such Tenant's Share was in effect.

  1.2	Allocation of Direct Expenses.  

  1.2.1	Method of Allocation.  The parties acknowledge that the Building is a part of a multi-building project and that the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Project (i.e., the Direct Expenses) should be shared proportionally between the tenants of the Building and the tenants of the Other Buildings in the Project.  Accordingly, as set forth in Section 1.1, above, Direct Expenses (which consist of Operating Expenses and Tax Expenses) are determined annually for the Project as a whole, and a portion of the Direct Expenses, which portion shall be reasonably determined by Landlord on an equitable and proportional basis, shall be allocated to the tenants of the Building (as opposed to the tenants of the Other Buildings in the Project) and such portion shall be the Direct Expenses for purposes of this Lease.  Such portion of Direct Expenses allocated to the tenants of the Building shall include all Direct Expenses attributable solely to the Building and an equitable portion of the Direct Expenses attributable to the Project as a whole.  As provided in Section 1.3 below, Tenant shall pay its proportionate share of Direct Expenses based upon the "Excess" (as defined below) amount commencing as of the initial month following the Base Year.

  1.2.2	Cost Pools.  Subject and in addition to the provisions of Section 1.2.1 above, Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to: (i) equitably allocate and prorate some or all of the Direct Expenses among different tenants of the Project and/or different buildings of the Project and/or on a building-by-building basis (the "Cost Pools"), in Landlord's discretion; and (ii) include or exclude existing or future buildings in the Project for purposes of determining some or all of the Direct Expenses and/or the provision of various services and amenities thereto, including allocation of Direct Expenses in any such Cost Pools.  Such Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, the office space tenants or occupants of a building of the Project or of the Project, and the retail space

  tenants or occupants of a building of the Project or of the Project.  The Direct Expenses within each such Cost Pool shall be allocated and charged to the tenants within such Cost Pool in an equitable manner.

  1.3	Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent.  If for any Expense Year ending or commencing within the Lease Term, Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for such Expense Year exceeds Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses applicable to the Base Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Section 1.3.1, below, and as Additional Rent, an amount equal to the excess (the "Excess").

  1.3.1	Statement of Actual Direct Expenses and Payment by Tenant.  Landlord shall endeavor to give to Tenant following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the "Statement") which shall state the Direct Expenses incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount of the Excess.  Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year commencing or ending during the Lease Term, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, the full amount of the Excess for such Expense Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as "Estimated Excess," as that term is defined in Section 1.3.2, below, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Excess than the actual Excess, Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of Tenant's overpayment against Rent next due under this Lease.  The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord or Tenant from enforcing its rights under this Exhibit C.  Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord such amount, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Excess than the actual Excess, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days, deliver a check payable to Tenant in the amount of the overpayment or apply such overpayment against any unpaid Rent.  The provisions of this Section 1.3.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.  Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Tenant shall not be responsible for Tenant's Share of any Direct Expenses attributable to any Expense Year which was first billed to Tenant more than twelve (12) months after the date (the "Cutoff Datexe "Cutoff Date"") which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the applicable Expense Year or (ii) the Lease Expiration Date, except that Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant's Share of any Direct Expenses levied by any governmental authority or by any public utility company at any time following the applicable Cutoff Date which are attributable to any Expense Year occurring prior to such Cutoff Date, so long as Landlord delivers to Tenant a bill and supplemental Statement for such amounts within twelve (12) months following Landlord's receipt of the applicable bill therefor.

  1.3.2	Statement of Estimated Direct Expenses.  In addition, Landlord shall endeavor to give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the "Estimate Statement") which shall set forth Landlord's reasonable estimate (the "Estimate") of what the total amount of Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the estimated excess (the "Estimated Excess") as calculated by comparing the Direct Expenses for such Expense Year, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to the amount of Direct Expenses for the Base Year.  The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Excess under this Exhibit C, nor shall Landlord be prohibited from revising any Estimate Statement or Estimated Excess theretofore delivered to the extent necessary.  Thereafter, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, a fraction of the Estimated Excess for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 1.3.2).  Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year, including the month of such payment, and twelve (12) as its denominator.  Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished (which Landlord shall have the right to deliver to Tenant at any time), Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.

  4.	No furniture, freight or equipment of any kind shall be brought into the Building without prior notice to Landlord.

Exhibit 10.1

CS Disco, Inc.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

Each member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) who is not also serving as an employee of or consultant to CS Disco, Inc. (the “Company”) or any of its subsidiaries (each such member, an “Eligible Director”) will receive the compensation described in this Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy (this “Policy”) for his or her Board service upon and following the date of the underwriting agreement between the Company and the underwriters managing the initial public offering of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to which the Common Stock is priced in such initial public offering (such date, the “Effective Date”). This Policy is effective as of the Effective Date and may be amended at any time in the sole discretion of the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board. An Eligible Director may decline all or any portion of his or her compensation by giving notice to the Company prior to the date cash may be paid or equity awards are to be granted, as the case may be. 

A. Annual Cash Compensation

All annual cash fees are vested upon payment and are payable to Eligible Directors in equal quarterly installments in arrears on the last day of each of the Company’s fiscal quarters in which the service occurred (each such date, the “Retainer Accrual Date”). If an Eligible Director joins the Board or a committee of the Board other than the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Company, each annual retainer set forth below will be pro-rated based on days served in the applicable fiscal year, with the pro-rated amount paid for the first fiscal quarter that the Eligible Director provides the service and regular full quarterly payments thereafter; provided, however, that if the Eligible Director leaves service prior to the last day of a fiscal quarter, the fee for such fiscal quarter will be pro-rated. 

1.         Annual Board Service Retainer: 
a.All Eligible Directors: $33,500
b.Independent Chair of the Board Service Retainer (in addition to Eligible Director Service Retainer): $25,000

2.         Annual Committee Chair Service Retainer:
a.Chair of the Audit Committee: $20,000
b.Chair of the Compensation Committee: $12,000
c.Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee: $7,500

3.         Annual Committee Member Service Retainer (not applicable to Committee Chairs):
a.Member of the Audit Committee: $8,500
b.Member of the Compensation Committee: $5,000
c.Member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee: $3,900

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Eligible Director who (i) is affiliated or associated with any of the Company’s fund investors and (ii) was serving on the Board as of the Effective Date shall be 

eligible for cash compensation as set forth above until the date of the Annual Meeting held in 2024. 

B. Equity Compensation 

The equity compensation set forth below will be granted under the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan or any successor plan (the “Plan”). All equity compensation granted under this Policy will be in the form of RSUs (as defined in the Plan). All RSUs granted under this Policy will vest as described below subject to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Services (as defined in the Plan) through such vesting dates on the terms specified below; provided, however, that all RSUs granted under this Policy will accelerate and vest in full upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), subject in each case to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service through such date.

1.Initial Grant. For each Eligible Director who is first elected or appointed to the Board following the Effective Date, on the date of such Eligible Director’s initial election or appointment to the Board (or, if such date is not a market trading day, the first market trading day thereafter) (the “Initial Grant Date”), such Eligible Director will be automatically, and without further action by the Board or Compensation Committee of the Board, granted RSUs (the “Initial Grant RSUs”). The Initial Grant RSUs will have an aggregate grant date fair value, as calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“FASB ASC Topic 718”), that is equal to $300,000. 

The Initial Grant RSUs will vest in 12 equal quarterly installments measured from the Initial Grant Date. Vesting of the Initial Grant RSUs is subject in all cases to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service (as defined in the Plan) through each such applicable vesting date.

2.Refresher Grants. On the date of each annual meeting of the Company stockholders held after the Effective Date (an “Annual Meeting”), each Eligible Director who: (i) has served as a non-employee member of the Board for at least six months prior to such Annual Meeting and (ii) continues to serve as a non-employee member of the Board following such Annual Meeting, will be automatically, and without further action by the Board or Compensation Committee of the Board, granted RSUs (the “Refresher Grant RSUs”) on such date (the “Refresher Grant Date”); provided, however, that no Eligible Director who (i) is affiliated or associated with any of the Company’s fund investors and (ii) was serving on the Board as of the Effective Date shall be eligible for a Refresher Grant RSU until the date of the Annual Meeting held in 2024. The Refresher Grant RSUs will have an aggregate grant date fair value, as calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, that is equal to $150,000. 

The Refresher Grant RSUs will vest in four equal quarterly installments measured from the Refresher Grant Date, provided that the Refresher Grant RSUs shall become fully vested as of the day immediately preceding the next Annual Meeting, if sooner. Vesting of the Refresher Grant RSUs is subject in all cases to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service (as defined in the Plan) through each such applicable vesting date.

3.Elections to Receive a Retainer Grant in Lieu of Cash Retainer. Each Eligible Director may elect to receive all of his or her Annual Board Service Retainer payable under A(1)(a) above, beginning with the first calendar year that commences after the Effective Date and any subsequent calendar year, into an RSU Award (each, a “Retainer Grant”) in accordance with this Section 3 (such election, a “Retainer Grant Election”). If an Eligible Director timely makes a Retainer Grant Election pursuant to this Section 3, the Retainer Grant shall be automatically granted to each Eligible Director on January 1 of each year (or if such date is not a market trading day, the first market trading day thereafter) and will have an aggregate grant date fair value, as calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, equal to the amount of Annual Board Service Retainer otherwise expected to be payable to such Eligible Director for the upcoming calendar year under A(1)(a) above. The Retainer Grant will vest in four equal installments on each Retainer Accrual Date during the year, subject to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service (as defined in the Plan) through each such applicable vesting date.

An Eligible Director may only make a Retainer Grant Election before the start of the calendar year to which such election relates and during a period in which the Company is not in a quarterly or special blackout period and the Eligible Director is not aware of any material non-public information. Each Retainer Grant Election must be timely submitted to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (or such other individual as the Company designates) in writing and subject to any other conditions specified by the Board or Compensation Committee of the Board. An Eligible Director who fails to make a timely Retainer Grant Election will not receive a Retainer Grant and instead will receive the Annual Board Service Retainer payable under A(1)(a) above in cash.

C. Non-Employee Director Compensation Limit

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate value of all compensation granted or paid, as applicable, to any individual for service as a Non-Employee Director (as defined in the Plan) shall in no event exceed the limits set forth in Section 3(d) of the Plan.
