EXHIBIT A
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT
1.Grant.  The Company hereby grants to the individual named in the Notice of Grant (“Participant”) under the Plan, an Award of Restricted Stock Units (the “Award”), subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Award Agreement, including the Notice of Grant, these Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Unit Grant and the Country-Specific Terms and Conditions (the “Appendix”) and the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference.  Subject to Section 19(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail.
2.Company’s Obligation to Pay.  Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share on the date it vests.  Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the manner set forth in Sections 3 or 4 of this Award Agreement, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Restricted Stock Units.  Prior to the actual payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.  Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Sections 3 or 4 of this Award Agreement will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, to his or her estate) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any Tax-Related Items as set forth in Section 8 of this Award Agreement.  Subject to the provisions of Section 4 of this Award Agreement, such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in whole Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case within the period of sixty (60) days following the vesting date.  In no event will Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to specify the taxable year of the payment of any Restricted Stock Units payable under this Award Agreement.
3.Vesting Schedule.  Except as provided in Section 4 of this Award Agreement, and subject to Section 5 of this Award Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant.  Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs.
4.Administrator Discretion.  The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan.  If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator.  For U.S. taxpayers, the payment of Shares vesting pursuant to this Section 4 shall in all cases be paid at a time or in a manner that is exempt from, or complies with, Section 409A.

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to death, and if (x) Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless  Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares to Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death.  It is the intent of this Award Agreement that it and all payments and benefits hereunder be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or so comply.  Each payment payable under this Award Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).  For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any final U.S. Treasury Regulations and U.S. Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time.
5.Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, the balance of the Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider for any or no reason and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate.
6.Death of Participant.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, if so allowed by the Administrator in its sole discretion, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate.  Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is employed outside the United States, Participant is not permitted to designate a beneficiary under this Award Agreement.
7.Forfeiture. This Award may be forfeited for cause (for purposes of example only, violations of confidentiality or failure to comply with other Service Provider conduct terms and conditions).
8.Responsibility for Taxes.  
(a)    Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, Participant’s employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.  Further, notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no Shares will be issued to Participant, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares.  Prior to vesting and/or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items.  

(b)    In this regard, Participant authorizes and directs the Company and any brokerage firm or transfer agent determined acceptable to the Company to automatically sell on Participant’s behalf a whole number of Shares from those Shares issued to Participant upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units as the Company determines to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items, with the sale proceeds paid to the Company or the Employer for remittance to the appropriate taxing authorities.  It is the Company’s intent that the mandatory sale of Shares to cover withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items imposed by the Company pursuant to this Section 8(b) comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Exchange Act and be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).  For purposes of the foregoing, Participant acknowledges that Participant is not aware of any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any securities of the Company as of the Date of Grant stated in the Notice of Grant; provided that if Participant is in possession of such material nonpublic information as of the Date of Grant, then the mandatory sale of Shares pursuant to this Section 8(b) shall become a binding contract as of the first date thereafter on which Participant is not in possession of material nonpublic information and as of the date any sales are effected pursuant to this Section 8(b), Participant will not effect such sales on the basis of material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any securities of the Company of which Participant was aware at the Date of Grant.  
(c)    If the automatic sale of Shares provided for under Section 8(b) is prohibited by a legal, contractual or regulatory restriction applicable to Participant or to the broker or transfer agent effecting the sale, or is prevented by a market disruption or similar issue, or if the Tax-Related Items withholding obligation arises at a time other than the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or at a time when the Shares are not publicly traded, then the withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items may be satisfied in one or more of the following manners, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, if permissible under applicable local law, the Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit or require Participant to satisfy such Tax-Related Items, in whole or in part (without limitation) (i) by paying cash, (ii) by electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a fair market value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld, (iii) by delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a fair market value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or (iv) by the Company and/or the Employer withholding Tax-Related Items from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company and/or the Employer. 
(d)    The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock equivalent.  If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.  
(e)    Participant hereby agrees that the Company does not have a duty to design or administer the Plan or Participant’s Restricted Stock Units in a manner that minimizes Participant’s liabilities for Tax-Related Items and that the Company and the Employer make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of Participant’s Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement or the receipt of any dividends and/or dividend equivalents.  In addition, if Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

9.Nature of Grant.  In accepting the award, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a)the Award of Restricted Stock Units is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards of Restricted Stock Units, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units, even if Restricted Stock Units have been awarded in the past; 
(b)all decisions with respect to future Restricted Stock Units or other awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 
(c)the Award of Restricted Stock Units and Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment or service relationship and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company and/or the Employer to terminate Participant’s status as a Service Provider, if any;
(d)Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; 
(e)the Award of Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; 
(f)the Award of Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments; 
(g)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; 
(h)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from the forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from the termination of Participant as a Service Provider (for any reason whatsoever whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment or other laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or otherwise rendering services, or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and in consideration of the award of the Restricted Stock Units to which Participant is otherwise not entitled, Participant agrees not to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer;
(i)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of same, are not granted in consideration for, or in connection with the service Participant may provide as a director of a Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company; and
(j)neither the Company, the Employer nor any Parent or Subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the U.S. Dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award of Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of sale of Shares acquired upon settlement. 
10.Data Privacy Information and Consent

(a)Data Collection and Usage.  The Company and the Employer may collect, process and use certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.  The legal basis, where required, for the processing of Data is the Participant’s consent.
(b)Stock Plan Administration Service Providers.  The Company may transfer Data to third parties which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.  The Company may select different service providers or additional service providers and share Data with such other provider serving in a similar manner.  Participant may be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, with such agreement being a condition to the ability to participate in the Plan.
(c)International Data Transfers.  The Company and some of its service providers are based in the United States.  Participant’s country or jurisdiction may have different data privacy laws and protections than the United States.  For example, the European Commission has issued a limited adequacy finding with respect to the United States that applies only to the extent companies register for the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program, which is open to companies subject to Federal Trade Commission jurisdiction and which the Company does participate in with respect to employee data.  The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the transfer of Data is the Participant’s consent.
(d)Data Retention.  The Company will hold and use the Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Participant’s participation in the Plan, or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and security laws.  
(e)Voluntariness and Consequences of Consent Denial or Withdrawal.  Participation in the Plan is voluntary and Participant is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis.  If Participant does not consent, or if Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Participant’s salary from or service with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards to Participant or administer or maintain such awards.  
(f)Data Subject Rights.  Participant may have a number of rights under data privacy laws in Participant’s jurisdiction.  Depending on where Participant is based, such rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Data the Company processes, (ii) rectify incorrect Data, (iii) delete Data, (iv) restrict processing of Data, (v) transport Data, (vi) lodge complaints with competent authorities in Participant’s jurisdiction, and/or (vii) receive a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of Data.  To receive clarification regarding these rights or to exercise these rights, Participant can contact his or her local human resources representative.

			
	By accepting the Restricted Stock Units and indicating consent via the Company’s acceptance procedure, Participant is declaring that he or she agrees with the data processing practices described herein and consents to the collection, processing and use of Data by the Company and the transfer of Data to the recipients mentioned above, including recipients located in countries which do not have an adequate level of protection from a European (or other non-U.S.) data protection law perspective, for the purposes described above.

11.Rights as Stockholder.  Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant.  After such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and the receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.
12.No Guarantee of Continued Service.  PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY OR THE EMPLOYER, AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER.  PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY OR THE EMPLOYER TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.
13.Address for Notices.  Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Award Agreement will be addressed to the Company at Rimini Street, Inc., 3993 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 500, Las Vegas, NV USA 89169 or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.
14.Grant is Not Transferable.  Except to the limited extent provided in Section 6, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and may not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process.  Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.
15.Binding Agreement.  Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this Award Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

16.Additional Conditions to Issuance of Shares.  If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration, qualification or rule compliance of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state, federal or foreign law, the tax code and related regulations or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to Participant (or his or her estate) hereunder, such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, rule compliance, consent or approval will have been completed, effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company.  Where the Company determines that the delivery of the payment of any Shares will violate any state, federal or foreign securities or exchange laws or other applicable laws, the Company will defer delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the delivery of Shares will no longer cause such violation.  The Company has sole discretion in its efforts to meet the requirements of any such local, state, federal or foreign law or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority or securities exchange.  
17.Administrator Authority.  The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Award Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any Restricted Stock Units have vested).  All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons.  No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Award Agreement.
18.Electronic Delivery and Acceptance.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to Restricted Stock Units awarded under the Plan or future Restricted Stock Units that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or request Participant’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means.  Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.
19.Captions.  Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Award Agreement.
20.Agreement Severable.  In the event that any provision in this Award Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Award Agreement.
21.No Advice Regarding Grant.  The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares.  Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
22.Modifications to the Award Agreement.  This Award Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties on the subjects covered.  Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting this Award Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein.  Modifications to this Award Agreement or the Plan can be made only in an express written contract executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Award Agreement, the Company reserves the right to revise this Award Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable for any legal or administrative reasons, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Participant, including but not limited to the compliance with Section 409A.

23.Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan.  By accepting this award, Participant expressly warrants that he or she has received an Award of Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, and has received, read and understood a description of the Plan.  Participant understands that the Plan is discretionary in nature, established voluntarily by the Company and may be amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan.
24.Governing Law and Venue.  This Award Agreement will be governed by the laws of California, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.  For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under this Award of Restricted Stock Units or this Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of California, and agree that such litigation will be conducted in the courts of Alameda County, California, or the federal courts for the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where the Award of Restricted Stock Units is made and/or to be performed.
25.Language.  If Participant has received this Award Agreement, or any other document related to this Award of Restricted Stock Units and/or the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.
26.Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws.  Participant acknowledges that, depending on Participant’s country, Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect his or her ability to acquire or sell the Shares or rights to the Shares under the Plan during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws in Participant’s country).  Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy.  Participant acknowledges that it is Participant’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and Participant is advised to speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter. 
27.Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Requirements.  Participant acknowledges that there may be certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or hold Shares acquired under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends paid on Shares acquired under the Plan) in a brokerage or bank account outside Participant’s country.  Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country.  Participant may also be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of participating in the Plan to Participant’s country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt.  Participant acknowledges that it is her or her responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and Participant should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter. 
28.Country-Specific Terms and Conditions.  Notwithstanding any provisions in this Award Agreement, this Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the country-specific terms and conditions for Participant’s country set forth in the Appendix attached to this Award Agreement as Exhibit B.  Moreover, if Participant relocates to one of the countries included therein, the terms and conditions for such country will apply to Participant to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons.  The Appendix constitutes part of this Award Agreement.
29.Imposition of Other Requirements.  The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Award of Restricted Stock Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

30.Waiver.  Participant acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Award Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Award Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by Participant or any other participant.

Certain capitalized terms used but not defined in this Appendix have the meanings set forth in the Plan and/or in the Award Agreement.
Terms and Conditions
This Appendix contains additional terms and conditions that shall be applicable to the Award of Restricted Stock Units granted to Participant if he or she is an employee and resides and/or works in one of the countries listed below.  If Participant is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which Participant is currently residing and/or working, or if Participant relocates to another country after the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company will, in its discretion, determine the extent to which the terms and conditions contained herein will be applicable to Participant. 
Notifications 
This Appendix may also include information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which Participant should be aware with respect to participation in the Plan.  The information is based on the securities, exchange control, and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of March 2020.  Such laws are often complex and change frequently.  As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Participant not rely on the information contained herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time Participant vests in the Restricted Stock Units or sells Shares acquired under the Plan.
In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of a particular result.  Accordingly, Participant should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in his or her country may apply to Participant’s situation.
Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which Participant is currently residing and/or working, or if Participant relocates to another country after the award of the Restricted Stock Units, the notifications contained herein may not be applicable to Participant in the same manner.

Securities Law Information.  Participant is permitted to sell Shares acquired under the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided that the sale of Shares takes place outside Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed.
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information.  Canadian residents are required to report to the tax authorities any specified foreign property held outside of Canada (including Restricted Stock Units and Shares acquired under the Plan) annually on form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) if the total cost of the specified foreign property exceeds C$100,000 at any time during the year.

For purposes of such reporting, Shares acquired under the Plan may be reported at their adjusted cost base.  The adjusted cost basis of a Share is generally equal to the fair market value of such Share at the time of acquisition; however, if Participant owns other Shares (e.g., acquired under other circumstances or at another time), the adjusted cost basis may have to be averaged with the adjusted cost basis of other Shares.  Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor to ensure compliance with applicable reporting obligations. 
CHINA
Terms and Conditions
The following terms and conditions apply only to Participant if Participant is subject to the exchange control restrictions and regulations in China, including the requirements imposed by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

Immediate Sale Restriction.  Due to exchange control laws in the People’s Republic of China, Participant understands and agrees that the Company may require that any Shares acquired upon the vesting and settlement of the Restricted Stock Units be immediately sold.  If the Company, in its discretion, does not exercise its right to require the automatic sale of Shares issuable upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, as described in the preceding sentence, Participant understands and agrees that any Shares acquired by Participant under the Plan must be sold no later than six (6) months after Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, or within any other such time frame as permitted by the Company or required by the China SAFE.  Participant understands that any Shares acquired by Participant under the Plan that have not been sold within six (6) months of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider will be automatically sold by a designated broker at the Company’s discretion, pursuant to this authorization by Participant. 
Participant agrees that the Company is authorized to instruct the designated broker to assist with the mandatory sale of such Shares (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), and Participant expressly authorizes the designated broker to complete the sale of such Shares.  Participant also agrees to sign any agreements, forms and/or consents that may be reasonably requested by Company (or the designated broker) to effectuate the sale of the Shares (including, without limitation, as to the transfers of the proceeds and other exchange control matters noted below) and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company with respect to such matters, provided that Participant shall not be permitted to exercise any influence over how, when or whether the sales occur.  Participant acknowledges that the designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price.  Due to fluctuations in the Share price and/or applicable exchange rates between vesting and (if later) the date on which the Shares are sold, the amount of proceeds ultimately distributed to Participant may be more or less than the market value of the Shares upon vesting (which is the amount relevant to determining Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items).  Participant understands and agrees that the Company is not responsible for the amount of any loss Participant may incur and the Company assumes no liability for any fluctuations in the Share price and/or any applicable exchange rate. 
Upon the sale of Shares, the Company agrees to pay the cash proceeds from the sale (less any Tax-Related Items, brokerage fees or commissions) to Participant in accordance with the applicable exchange control laws and regulations including but not limited to, the restrictions set forth in this Appendix for China below under “Exchange Control Requirements.”

Exchange Control Requirements. By accepting this Award of Restricted Stock Units, Participant understands and agrees that, pursuant to local exchange control requirements, Participant will be required to repatriate the cash proceeds from the immediate sale of the Shares to China.  Participant further understands that, under local law, such repatriation of cash proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control account established by the Company and/or its Chinese Subsidiary, and Participant hereby consents and agrees that any proceeds from the sale of any Shares Participant acquires may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Participant. Participant further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.  The proceeds may be paid to Participant in U.S. dollars or in local currency, at the Company’s discretion.  If the proceeds are paid in U.S. dollars, Participant understands and agrees that he or she will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China (if Participant does not already have one) so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account. If the proceeds are paid in local currency, Participant further understands and agrees that the Company or its Chinese Subsidiary is under no obligation to secure any particular exchange conversion rate and there may be delays in converting the cash proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions.  Participant agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the cash proceeds are received and the time the cash proceeds are distributed to Participant through the special account described above.  Participant further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future to facilitate compliance with China exchange control requirements.

You are eligible to participate under the Plan if, at the time of the offer, you are a Service Provider and meet the eligibility requirements established under the Plan.
6.    WHAT ARE THE MATERIAL TERMS OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS?
(a)    What are Restricted Stock Units? 
The Restricted Stock Units represent the right to receive a corresponding number of Shares upon fulfilment of the vesting conditions set out in your Award Agreement.  The Restricted Stock Units are considered “restricted” because they will be subject to forfeiture and restrictions on transfer until they vest.  The restrictions are set forth in the Award Agreement.
(b)    Do I have to pay any money to receive the Restricted Stock Units?
You pay no monetary consideration to receive the Restricted Stock Units nor do you pay any price to receive the Shares upon vesting.
(c)    How many Shares will I receive upon vesting of my Restricted Stock Units?
The details of your Restricted Stock Units and the number of Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units are set out in the Award Agreement.
(d)    When do I become a stockholder?
    You are not a stockholder merely as a result of holding Restricted Stock Units.  The Restricted Stock Units will not entitle you to vote or receive dividends, notices of shareholder meetings, proxy statements or other materials provided to stockholders until the restrictions lapse, at which time the Restricted Stock Units will vest and will be settled in Shares.  You are not considered an owner of the Shares unless and until the Shares are issued to you upon vesting.
(e)        Can I transfer the Restricted Stock Units to someone else? 
The Restricted Stock Units are non-transferable; however, once Shares are issued upon vesting, the Shares will be freely tradeable (subject to Company policies and applicable laws regarding insider trading).
7.    WHAT IS A SHARE OF COMMON STOCK IN THE COMPANY?
Common stock of a U.S. corporation is analogous to an ordinary share of an Australian corporation.  Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for every Share held in the Company.
The Shares are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”) and are traded under the symbol “RMNI.”

Shares are not liable to any further calls for payment of capital or for other assessment by the Company and have no sinking fund provisions, pre-emptive rights, conversion rights or redemption provisions.
8.    HOW CAN I OBTAIN UPDATED INDICATIVE EXAMPLES OF THE CURRENT MARKET PRICE IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS?
You may ascertain the current market price of the Shares traded on the NASDAQ at http://www.nasdaq.com under the code “RMNI.”  The Australian dollar equivalent of that price can be obtained at http://www.rba.gov.au/statistics/frequency/exchange-rates.html.
9.    WHAT ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS APPLY TO AUSTRALIAN RESIDENTS' PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN?
Australian Participants should have regard to risk factors relevant to investment in securities generally and, in particular, to the holding of Shares.
For example, the price at which the Shares are quoted on the NASDAQ may increase or decrease due to a number of factors.  There is no guarantee that the price of the Shares will increase.  Factors which may affect the price of the Shares include fluctuations in the domestic and international market for listed stocks, general economic conditions, including interest rates, inflation rates, commodity and oil prices, changes to government fiscal, monetary or regulatory policies, legislation or regulation, the nature of the markets in which the Company operates and general operational and business risks.
More information about potential factors that could affect the Company’s business and financial results is included in the Company’s most recent annual report which is available upon request.  
In addition, you should be aware that in addition to fluctuations in the Share price, the value of any Shares issued pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units will be affected by the U.S./Australian dollar exchange rate.  Participation in the Plan involves certain risks related to fluctuations in these rates of exchange.
10.    PLAN MODIFICATION, TERMINATION ETC.
The Administrator may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.
11.    WHAT ARE THE AUSTRALIAN TAXATION CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN?
Please refer to the description of the tax consequences of participation in the Plan contained in the Australian Employee Information Supplement.
12.    WHAT ARE THE U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN?
Australian residents (who are not U.S. citizens or U.S. tax residents) will not be subject to U.S. tax by reason only of the grant and vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the sale of Shares.  However, liability for U.S. taxes may accrue if an Australian resident is otherwise subject to U.S. taxes.

The above is an indication only of the likely U.S. taxation consequences for Australian residents awarded Restricted Stock Units under the Plan.  Australian residents should seek their own advice as to the U.S. taxation consequences of Plan participation.

These tax ramifications shall apply to, and shall be borne solely by, such Eligible 102 Participant.
d.Each 102 Trustee Grant (whether a 102 Capital Gains Track Grant or a 102 Ordinary Income Track Grant, as applicable) shall be subject to the relevant terms of Section 102 and the ITO, which shall be deemed an integral part of the 102 Trustee Grant, and shall prevail over any term contained in the Plan, this SubPlan or any agreement that is not consistent therewith with respect to such 102 Trustee Grant.
e.Any provision of the ITO and any additional terms required by the ITA not expressly specified in this SubPlan or in the Award Agreement, as applicable, which are necessary to receive or maintain any tax benefit pursuant the Section 102, shall be binding on the Eligible 102 Participant.
f.The Trustee and the Eligible 102 Participant granted a 102 Trustee Grant shall comply with the ITO.  For the avoidance of doubt, it is reiterated that compliance with the ITO specifically includes compliance with the Rules.
g.Further, the Eligible 102 Participant agrees to execute any and all documents that the Company, the Employer, or the Trustee may reasonably determine to be necessary in order to comply with the provision of any Applicable Laws and Section 102.
h.The Trustee will not perform any transaction or act regarding the Awards and/or the Shares issued pursuant to the Awards, including transferring, selling, seizing, assigning, hypothecating or pledging (willingly or unwillingly), disposing or assigning the Awards or any Shares, and will not give any power of attorney regarding the Awards and/or the Shares issued pursuant to the Awards, in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and as permitted by the Plan, unless all the taxes are paid to the ITA, or the Trustee ensures that taxes will be paid.  If the Awards and/or the Shares issued pursuant to the Awards are transferred by will or by the laws or descent and distribution, Section 102 and its regulations, including the Rules, will apply to the heirs or the transferees of the Eligible 102 Participant.

i.Before releasing or selling the Awards and/or Shares subject to the Awards, the Trustee will receive a written confirmation from the relevant Employer that all requirements for such release and transfer have been fulfilled according to the terms of the Plan, any applicable agreement and any Applicable Laws and Section 102.
j.In the event that the Trustee shall hold Shares in trust, it shall not be required with respect to such Shares to participate in any stockholder meetings of the Company and/or to represent the beneficiaries of such Shares as stockholders in the Company.  The Trustee will provide a proxy to the person or persons designated by the Administrator.
k.For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan: (1) no Award granted as a 102 Trustee Grant may be settled for cash payment or any other form of consideration, unless and to the extent permitted under Section 102 or as expressly authorized by the ITA; (2) no Option qualifying as a Section 102 Trustee Grant shall be exercisable by the surrender of Shares or withholding of otherwise deliverable Shares, and withholding tax obligations will not be satisfied with respect to an Award and/or the Shares by withholding Shares otherwise deliverable upon grant, exercise or vesting of the Award, as applicable, unless and to the extent permitted under Section 102 or as expressly authorized by the ITA; and (3) the grant of Performance Shares or Performance Units under Section 102 and the implementation of an Exchange Program are subject to confirmation by the ITA.
4.Assignability
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sub-Plan, as long as Awards or Shares are held by the Trustee on behalf of the Eligible 102 Participant, all rights of the Eligible 102 Participant over the Awards and/or the Shares are personal and cannot be transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. 
5.Tax Consequences
a.Any tax consequences arising from the grant, vesting, exercise or Realization of any Awards, or from the issuance of Shares covered thereby, or from any other event or act of the Company, any Employer, the Trustee, and/or the Eligible 102 Participant, shall be borne solely by the Eligible 102 Participant.  The Company, Employer, and/or the Trustee shall withhold taxes according to the requirements under Applicable Laws, Section 102, the Rules, regulations and any tax ruling issued by the ITA with respect to such Awards and Shares.
b.Furthermore, the Eligible 102 Participant shall agree to indemnify the Company, any Employer, and/or the Trustee and hold them harmless against and from any and all liability for any such tax or interest or penalty thereon, including, without any limitation, liabilities relating to the necessity to withhold or to have withheld any such tax from any payment made to the Eligible 102 Participant. 

c.The Company, any Employer, and/or the Trustee may make such provisions and take such steps as they may deem necessary or appropriate to meet mandatory withholding requirements required by Applicable Laws and Section 102 with respect to Awards and/or the Shares and the grant, vesting, exercise and/or Realization or other disposition thereof, including (but not limited to) (i) deducting the amount so required to be withheld from the Eligible 102 Participant’s salary or other amounts payable to the Eligible 102 Participant, to the maximum extent permitted under law, (ii) requiring the Eligible 102 Participant to pay to the Company or any Employer the amount so required to be withheld as a condition of the issuance, delivery, distribution or release of the Awards or any Shares subject to Awards, and/or (iii) by agreeing to the exercise of Options and/or sale of Shares, whether or not held by the Trustee, to cover such liability.  In addition, the Eligible 102 Participant will be required to pay any amount that exceeds the tax to be withheld and transferred to the ITA, pursuant to Section 102, Applicable Laws, regulations, rules with respect to such Awards and Shares. 
d.The Company, any Employer and/or the Trustee shall not be required to release any Awards and/or Shares to the Eligible 102 Participant until all required tax withholding has been performed.
e.For the avoidance of doubt, the Company makes no representation or assurance that all of the Awards granted as Section 102 Awards shall be eligible for the tax benefits pursuant to Section 102.

Landlord and Tenant agree that said letting and hiring is upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth.  Tenant covenants, as a material part of the consideration for this Lease, to keep and perform each and all of said terms, covenants and conditions for which Tenant is liable and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such performance.
Prior to the commencing of the term of this Lease, Landlord shall cause the Expansion Premises and the Common Areas on the first (1st) floor of the Building to be improved by the Tenant Improvements described in the Work Letter marked EXHIBIT B attached hereto. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure, incur any obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with the Lease or the ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises or the Project.
ARTICLE 1
TERM
1.1    Commencement Date.  The term of this Lease shall commence on the date which is the later of:
(a)    July 1, 2019, or 
(b)     subject to Tenant Delay (as hereinafter defined), the date on which the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Complete (as hereinafter defined).
The Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be "Substantially Complete" on the earliest of the date on which:  (1) a temporary certificate of occupancy or a reasonably substantial equivalent such as a sign-off from a building inspector is issued by the City of Pleasanton (the "City"), or (2) Tenant first occupies all or any portion of the Expansion Premises.  
2

The Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be Substantially Complete despite minor “punch list” items which shall be completed by Landlord within a reasonable time.
If a Tenant Delay occurs, the Commencement Date shall be and mean the later of July 1, 2019 or the date upon which the Tenant Improvements would have been Substantially Complete but for any Tenant Delay.  As used herein, a “Tenant Delay” shall be and mean each day of delay in the commencement or performance of the Tenant Improvements that occurs (a) because Tenant fails to timely furnish any information or deliver or approve any required documents (whether preliminary, interim revisions or final), pricing estimates, construction bids, and the like, (b) because of any change by Tenant to the Plans and Specification, Working Drawings or Final Working Drawings (each of which are hereinafter defined), (c) because Tenant fails to attend any meeting with Landlord, the architect, any design professional, or any contractor, or their respective employees or representatives, as may be required or scheduled hereunder or otherwise necessary in connection with the preparation or completion of any construction documents, such as the Plans and Specification, Working Drawings or Final Working Drawings, or in connection with the performance of the Tenant Improvements, (d) because of any specification by Tenant of materials or installations in addition to or other than Landlord’s standard finish-out materials, or (e) Tenant fails to deposit any Overage (as hereinafter defined) with Landlord as and when required hereunder.
1.1.1    The date that the Lease commences in accordance with this Article 1 shall be referred to herein as the "Commencement Date".  
1.1.2    On and after the Commencement Date, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect until January 31, 2027 (“Expiration Date”) or until this Lease is terminated as otherwise provided herein.  As soon as the Commencement Date is determined, Tenant shall execute a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F acknowledging, among other things, the (a) Commencement Date, (b) the Expiration Date and (c) Tenant's acceptance of the Expansion Premises.  Tenant's failure to execute the Commencement Date Memorandum shall not affect Tenant's liability hereunder.  
1.1.3    Reference in this Lease to a "Lease Year" shall mean each successive twelve month period commencing with the Commencement Date.
1.1.4    Landlord and Tenant estimate that the Commencement Date shall be July 1, 2019, but such estimate is not and shall not be deemed to be a representation or warranty by Landlord that Premises shall be ready for Tenant's occupancy on such date.
1.1.5    Landlord shall provide Tenant with limited access to the Expansion Premises at such times as may be designated by Landlord in light of construction work by Landlord in the Expansion Premises for a period of approximately two (2) weeks prior to the date which Landlord anticipates being the Commencement Date for the sole purpose of permitting Tenant to ready the Expansion Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, so that Tenant’s access does not interfere with the performance of Landlord’s work in the Expansion Premises.  
3

Tenant's access to the Expansion Premises during the period of time prior to the Commencement Date shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease (including the Rules and Regulations and such other rules and regulations as Landlord may reasonably impose), other than the payment of Rent and the expiration date of the Lease shall not be advanced by such access by Tenant of the Expansion Premises prior to the Commencement Date.  Tenant shall not interfere with Landlord’s performance of Landlord’s work in the Expansion Premises.   
 ARTICLE 2
POSSESSION
2.1    Lease in Full Force and Effect. Tenant agrees that, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant on the anticipated Commencement Date, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, but in such event the Term of this Lease shall not commence until Landlord tenders possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant with the Tenant Improvements substantially completed or Tenant opens for business in the Expansion Premises.  If Landlord completes construction of the Tenant Improvements prior to the scheduled Commencement Date, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant upon such completion and the term of this Lease shall thereupon commence.
2.2.    Acceptance by Tenant.  Tenant has determined that the Premises are acceptable for Tenant's use and Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any broker or agent has made any representations or warranties in connection with the physical condition of the Premises or their fitness for Tenant's use upon which Tenant has relied directly or indirectly for any purpose.  Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure, incur any obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with this Lease or the ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises or the Project.  Tenant's possession of the Premises during the period of time, if any, prior to the Commencement Date, shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease and shall not advance the Expiration Date. Rent shall be paid for such period at the rate stated in Article 3, prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month, and shall be due and payable to Landlord on or before the Commencement Date.

If the Term commences or ends on a date other than the first or last day of a month, Base Rent shall be prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month.  Tenant shall pay Landlord the Rent (as hereinafter defined) due under this Lease without any deduction or offset whatsoever by Tenant, foreseeable or unforeseeable.  
3.2    Additional Rent.  In addition to the Base Rent, Tenant agrees to pay as additional rental (the "Additional Rent" and together with the Base Rent, the "Rent") the amount of rental adjustments and all other charges required by this Lease.  All sums other than the Base Rent that 
6

Tenant is obligated to pay under this Lease will be Additional Rent, whether or not such sums are designated as Additional Rent.
3.3    Late Charge and Interest.  Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the late payment of any Rent will cause Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection costs, processing and accounting expenses, and increased debt service (the "Delinquency Costs"). If Landlord has not received any installment of Rent when due, Tenant shall pay a late charge (the "Late Charge") equal to twelve percent (12%) of the delinquent amount. Tenant agrees that the Late Charge represents a reasonable estimate of the Delinquency Costs that will be incurred by Landlord.  In addition, Tenant shall pay interest on all delinquent amounts from the date the amount was due until the date the amount is paid in full at a rate per annum (the "Applicable Interest Rate") equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum interest rate permitted by law or (b) five percent (5%) above the reference rate (the "Reference Rate") publicly announced by Bank of America, NA. (or if Bank of America, NA. ceases to exist, the largest bank then headquartered in the State of California) (the "Bank").  If the Bank discontinues use of the Reference Rate, then the term "Reference Rate" will mean the announced rate charged by the Bank, from time to time instead of the Reference Rate. Landlord and Tenant agree that it is difficult to ascertain the damage that Landlord will suffer as a result of the late payment of any Rent and that the Late Charge and interest are the best estimates of the damage that Landlord will suffer in the event of late payment. If a Late Charge becomes payable for any two (2) installments of Rent within any twelve (12) month period, then all Rent will automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance.
ARTICLE 4

(C)    Tenant acknowledges that the Premises are subject to assessments levied to secure bonds sold by the City of Pleasanton pursuant to Consolidated Reassessment District 1993-1.  Such Assessments shall be Tenant’s responsibility throughout the term of this Lease.  Tenant hereby consents to the formation of any other districts formed for maintenance, utilities, landscaping, lighting, special service zones, fire district, water district, road extensions, traffic mitigation, sports facilities or other improvements in the Project or Bernal Corporate Park and to the re-financing of any assessment districts, provided that payment of any of the foregoing shall be Tenant’s responsibility.  Tenant hereby waives any right of notice and protest in connection with the formation and continued existence of the assessment districts.  Tenant shall execute all documents, including, but not limited to, petitions and formal waivers of notice and protest of formation, evidencing such consent and waiver upon request of Landlord or the City of Pleasanton.

(b)    Payment of Direct Expenses.
(i)    If Tenant's Percentage of the Direct Expenses paid or incurred by Landlord for any calendar year exceeds the Direct Expenses Base included in Base Rent, then 
9

Tenant shall pay such excess as Additional Rent.
(ii)    In addition, for each year after the first calendar year, or portion thereof, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Percentage of Landlord's estimate of the amount by which Direct Expenses for that year shall exceed the Direct Expenses Base (the "Landlord's Estimate").  This estimated amount shall be divided into twelve equal monthly installments.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord without offset or deduction, concurrently with the regular monthly Base Rent payment next due following the receipt of such statement, an amount equal to one monthly installment multiplied by the number of months from January in the calendar year in which said statement is submitted to the month of such payment, both months inclusive.  Subsequent installments shall be payable concurrently with the regular monthly Base Rent payments for the balance of that calendar year and shall continue until the next calendar year's statement is rendered.
(iii)    As soon as possible after the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a statement showing the amount of Tenant's Percentage of Direct Expenses, the amount of Landlord's Estimate actually paid by Tenant and the amount of the Direct Expenses Base. Thereafter, Landlord shall reconcile the above amounts and shall either bill Tenant for the balance due (payable on demand by Landlord) or credit any overpayment by Tenant towards the next monthly installment of Landlord's Estimate falling due, as the case may be.  For purposes of making these calculations, in no event shall Tenant's Percentage of the Direct Expenses be deemed to be less than the Direct Expenses Base.
(c)    Tenant's obligation to pay Tenant's Percentage of Direct Expenses shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.  Tenant's Percentage of Direct Expenses shall be paid by Tenant when due even though the Term has expired and/or Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Percentage of Direct Expenses for the year in which this Lease terminates, Tenant shall immediately pay any increase due over the estimated expenses paid and, conversely, any overpayment made in the event said expenses decrease shall be rebated by Landlord to Tenant.
ARTICLE 5
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Landlord acknowledges that, pursuant to the Original Lease, Tenant deposited with Landlord the sum of One Hundred Seventy-nine Thousand Seven Hundred Sixty-eight and 51/100 Dollars ($179,768.51) [to be confirmed by landlord] (“Existing Deposit”) which Landlord shall continue to hold during the Term upon the terms and conditions of this Lease.  Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the additional sum of Twenty-eight Thousand Two Hundred Fifty-one and 16/100 Dollars ($28,251.16) (the "Additional Security Deposit" and collectively with the Existing Deposit, the “Security Deposit”).  The Security Deposit (in the total amount of Two Hundred Eight Thousand Nineteen and 67/100 Dollars ($208,019.67)) [TOTAL amount of security deposit represents last month’s rent] shall be held by Landlord as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of Tenant's obligations hereunder.  If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including 
10

but not limited to the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply or retain all or any part of this Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default.  If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, upon demand, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount.  Tenant's failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease.  Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on the Security Deposit.  If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform all of its obligations under this Lease, and if Tenant is not in default under this Lease, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interests hereunder) after the expiration of the Term and after Landlord after such time as any amount due from Tenant in accordance with Article 4 hereof has been determined and paid in full.  Tenant hereby waives the benefit of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 with regards to such Security Deposit, it being agreed and understood that Landlord shall have the right, upon an Event of Default, to apply the Security Deposit to satisfy the payment of future Rent obligations.
ARTICLE 6
USE
Tenant shall use the Premises for general office use consistent with the character of a first class office building, during such business hours as are typical to a software company operating in a first class office building, and shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose without Landlord's prior written consent except that the Expansion Premises shall be used for the purpose of training employees and software training sessions directly related to Tenant’s business operations.  Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises in violation of law or of the certificate of occupancy issued for the Building or Project, and shall, upon written notice from Landlord, discontinue any use of the Premises which is declared by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to be a violation of law or of said certificate of occupancy.  Tenant shall comply with any direction of any governmental authority having jurisdiction which shall, by reason of the nature of Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, impose any duty upon Tenant or Landlord with respect to the Premises or with respect to the use or occupation thereof.  Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which will invalidate or increase the cost of any fire, extended coverage or any other insurance policy covering the Building and/or Project and/or property located therein and shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations and requirements of the Insurance Service Offices, formerly known as the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau or any other organization performing a similar function.  Tenant shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse Landlord for any additional premium charged for such policy by reason of Tenant's failure to comply with the provisions of this Article.  Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way obstruct or interfere with access to the Project, or use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about 
11

the Premises.  Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises.  Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has recorded covenants, conditions and restrictions against the Premises on February 18, 1987 as Instrument Number 87/046032 in the Official Records of Alameda County, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of Koll Center Pleasanton on October 5, 1993 as Instrument Number 93366552, as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Declaration of Easement and Maintenance Agreement on July 31, 1997 as Instrument Number 97191415, as further amended by that certain Third Amendment to Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions on November 17, 2000 as Instrument Number 2000341937, as further amended by that certain Fourth Amendment to Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions on August 17, 2000 as Instrument Number 2000341939 (as amended, the "CC&Rs").  Tenant's use of the Premises shall be subject to and Tenant shall comply with the CC&Rs, as the same may be amended from time to time, and all Applicable Laws.  Tenant acknowledges that there have been and may be from time to time recorded easements and/or declarations granting or declaring easements for parking, utilities, fire or emergency access, and other matters.  Tenant's use of the Premises shall be subject to and Tenant shall comply with any and all such easements and declarations.  Tenant's use of the Premises shall be subject to such guidelines as may from time to time be prepared by Landlord or the Bernal Corporate Park Owner's Association in their sole discretion.  Tenant acknowledges that governmental entities with jurisdiction over the Premises may, from time to time promulgate laws, rules, plans and regulations affecting the use of the Premises, including, but not limited to, traffic management plans and energy conservation plans.  Tenant's use of the Premises shall be subject to and Tenant shall comply with any and all such laws, rules, plans, and regulations.

If Tenant does store, use or dispose of any "Hazardous Materials" (as hereinafter defined), Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing at least ten (10) days prior to their first appearance on the Premises.  As used herein, "Hazardous Materials" means any chemical, substance, material, controlled substance, object, condition, waste, living organism or combination thereof, whether solid, semi solid, liquid or gaseous, which is or may be hazardous to human health or safety or to the environment due to its radioactivity, ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, explosivity, toxicity, carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, phytotoxicity, infectiousness or other harmful or potentially harmful properties or effects, including, without limitation, tobacco smoke, petroleum and petroleum products, asbestos, radon, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), refrigerants (including those substances defined in the Environmental Protection Agency's "Refrigerant Recycling Rule," as amended from time to time) and all of those chemicals, substances, materials, controlled substances, objects, conditions, wastes, living organisms or combinations thereof which are now or become in the future listed, defined or regulated in any manner by any Environmental Law based upon, directly or indirectly, such properties or effects.

ARTICLE 7
NOTICES
Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder must be in writing and may be given by personal delivery or by mail, and if given by mail shall be deemed sufficiently given if sent by registered or certified mail addressed to Tenant at the Project or to Landlord at its address set forth at the end of this Lease.  Either party may specify a different address for notice purposes by written notice to the other except that the Landlord may in any event use the Premises as Tenant's address for notice purposes.

Tenant warrants that it knows of no other real estate broker or agent who is or might be entitled to a commission in connection with the Lease.  If Tenant has dealt with any other person or real estate broker with respect to leasing or renting space in the Project, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the payment of any fee due said person or firm and Tenant shall hold Landlord free and harmless against any liability in respect thereto, including attorneys' fees and costs.
ARTICLE 9
HOLDING OVER; SURRENDER 
9.1    Holding Over.  If Tenant holds over the Premises or any part thereof after expiration of the Term, such holding over shall, at Landlord's option, constitute a month-to-month tenancy, at a rent equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the greater of (a) the then fair market value of the base rent for the Premises as determined by Landlord and (b) the Base Rent in effect immediately prior to such holding over and shall otherwise be on all the other terms and conditions of this Lease.  The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall not be construed as Landlord's permission for Tenant to hold over.  Acceptance of Rent by Landlord following expiration or termination shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease or extension of the Term except as specifically set forth above.  If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss or liability resulting from or arising out of Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises, including, but not limited to, any amounts required to be paid to any tenant or prospective tenant who was to have occupied the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and any related attorneys' fees and brokerage commissions.
9.2    Surrender.  Upon the termination of this Lease or Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, Tenant will surrender the Premises broom clean, together with all keys, in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall patch and fill all holes within the Premises.  Unless requested not to do so by Landlord, Tenant shall also remove all 
13

alterations or improvements made by it, or made by Landlord at Tenant's request or direction, to the Premises (which removal shall include restoration if and to the extent necessary to return the Premises to its condition at the Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear excluded), other than the Tenant Improvements (except that Tenant shall remove the Reception Desk referenced in Section 4.2 of the Work Letter and the sliding glass doors referenced in Section 4.4 of the Work Letter).  In no event may Tenant remove from the Premises any mechanical or electrical systems or any wiring or any other aspect of any systems within the Premises. Conditions existing because of Tenant's failure to perform maintenance, repairs or replacements shall not be deemed "reasonable wear and tear."
ARTICLE 10
TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY
(a)    Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, at least ten (10) days before delinquency, all taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises.  If any such taxes on Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and if Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, 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 portion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment.
(b)    If the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, whether installed, and/or paid for by Landlord or 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 "Project Standard," in other space in the Project are assessed, then the real property taxes and assessment levied against the Project 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 10(a), above.  If the records of the County Assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining whether said Tenant Improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than Landlord's Project Standard, such records shall be binding on both the Landlord and the Tenant.  If the records of the County Assessor are not available or sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for making said determination, the actual cost of construction shall be used.
14

ARTICLE 11
CONDITION OF PREMISES
Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises or the Project or with respect to the suitability of either for the conduct of Tenant's business.  The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Project were in satisfactory condition at such time.
ARTICLE 12
ALTERATIONS
(a)    Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements in or to the Premises without Landlord's prior written consent, and then only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord.  Tenant agrees that there shall be no construction or partitions or other obstructions which might interfere with Landlord's free access to mechanical installations or service facilities of the Building or Project or interfere with the moving of Landlord's equipment to or from the enclosures containing said installations or facilities.  All such work shall be done at such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time designate.  Tenant covenants and agrees that all work done by Tenant shall be performed in full compliance with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, regulations and requirements of all governmental agencies, offices, and boards having jurisdiction, and in full compliance with the rules, regulations and requirements of the Insurance Service Offices formerly known as the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau, and of any similar body.  Before commencing any work, Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten days written notice of the proposed commencement of such work and shall, if required by Landlord, secure at Tenant's own cost and expense, a completion and lien indemnity bond, satisfactory to Landlord, for said work.  Tenant further covenants and agrees that any mechanic's lien filed against the Premises or against the Building or Project for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within ten days after the filing thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant.  All alterations, additions or improvements upon the Premises made by either party, including (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) all wallcovering, built-in cabinet work, paneling and the like, shall, unless Landlord elects otherwise, become the property of Landlord, and shall remain upon, and be surrendered with the Premises, as a part thereof, at the end of the term hereof, except that Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, require Tenant to remove all partitions, counters, railings and the like installed by Tenant, and Tenant shall repair all damage resulting from such removal or, at Landlord's option, shall pay to Landlord all costs arising from such removal.  
(b)    All articles of personal property and all business and trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture and movable partitions owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises shall be and remain the property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant at any time during the lease term when Tenant is not in default hereunder.  If Tenant shall fail to remove all of its effects from the Premises upon termination of this Lease for any cause whatsoever, Landlord may, at its option, remove the same in any manner that Landlord shall 
15

choose, and store said effects without liability to Tenant for loss thereof.  In such event, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord upon demand any and all expenses incurred in such removal, including court costs and attorneys' fees and storage charges on such effects for any length of time that the same shall be in Landlord's possession.  Landlord may, at its option, without notice, sell said effects, or any of the same, at private sale and without legal process, for such price as Landlord may obtain and apply the proceeds of such sale upon any amounts due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord and upon the expense incident to the removal and sale of said effects.
ARTICLE 13

Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall keep, maintain and preserve the Premises in first class condition and repair (including contracting with a professional, insured janitorial service provider to provide janitorial services to the Project five (5) days per week, which janitorial services shall include interior and exterior window washing and cleaning all bathrooms in the Building) and shall, when and if needed, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, make all repairs to the Premises and the restrooms in the Building, and every part thereof, including, without limitation, Tenant's trade fixtures, installations, equipment and other personal property items within the Premises.  All such repairs, maintenance and replacements by Tenant shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner.  Tenant shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term hereof, surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as when received, usual and ordinary wear and tear excepted.  Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair, decorate or paint the Premises or any part thereof.  Tenant acknowledges, agrees and affirms that Landlord has made no representations to Tenant respecting the condition of the Premises or the Project.  Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole expense, be responsible for repairing any area damaged by Tenant, Tenant's agents, employees, invitees and visitors.  All repairs and replacements by Tenant shall be made and performed:  (a) at Tenant's cost and expense and at such time and in such manner as Landlord may reasonably designate, (b) by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, (c) so that same shall be at least equal in quality, value and utility to the original work or installation (d) in a manner and using equipment and materials that will not interfere with or impair the operations, use or occupation of the Building or any of the mechanical, electrical, plumbing or other systems in the Building or the Project, and (e) in accordance with the Rules and Regulations attached hereto as EXHIBIT D and all Applicable Laws. In the event Tenant fails, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, to maintain the Premises in accordance with the obligations under the Lease, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter the Premises and perform such maintenance, repairs or refurbishing at Tenant's sole cost and expense (including a sum for overhead to Landlord equal to ten percent (10%) of the cost of the maintenance, repairs or refurbishing).  Tenant shall maintain written records of maintenance and repairs, as required by any Applicable Law, and shall use certified technicians to perform such maintenance and repairs, as so required. Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord, full and complete copies of all service or maintenance contracts entered into by Tenant for the Premises.

Anything contained in Section 13.1 above to the contrary  notwithstanding, as items of Operating Expenses, Landlord shall repair and maintain the structural portions of the Building, including the foundations and roof structure.  Landlord shall repair and maintain the basic plumbing, elevators, life safety systems and other building systems, heating, ventilating, air conditioning and electrical systems installed or furnished by Landlord, and perform roof repair and maintenance to the Premises.  Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make any such repairs or to perform any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for an unreasonable time after written notice of the need of such repairs or maintenance is given to Landlord by Tenant.  Landlord shall not be required to make any repair resulting from (i) any alteration or modification to the Building or to mechanical equipment within the Building performed by, or on behalf of, Tenant or to special equipment or systems installed by, or on behalf of, Tenant, (ii) the installation, use or operation of Tenant's property, fixtures and equipment, (iii) the moving of Tenant's property in or out of the Building or in and about the Premises, (iv) Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises in violation of Section 6 of this Lease or in a manner not contemplated by the parties at the time of the execution of this Lease, (v) the acts or omissions of Tenant or any employees, agents, customers, visitors, invitees, licensees, contractors, assignees or subtenants of Tenant (individually, a "Tenant Party" and collectively, "Tenant's Parties"), (vi) fire and other casualty, except as provided by Section 21 of this Lease or (vii) condemnation, except as provided in Section 22 of this Lease. Landlord shall have no obligation to make repairs under this Section 13.2 until a reasonable time after (a) Landlord first becomes aware of the need for such repairs, or (b) receipt of written notice from Tenant of the need for such repairs, whichever is earlier.  There shall be no abatement of Rent during the performance of such work. Except for the initial Tenant Improvements, if any, provided for in the Work Letter,  Landlord shall have no obligation during the Term of this Lease to remodel, repair, improve, decorate or paint any part of the Premises or to clean, repair or replace carpeting or window coverings.  Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for injury or damage that may result from any defect in the construction or condition of the Premises, nor for any damage that may result from interruption of Tenant's use of the Premises during any repairs by Landlord.  Tenant waives any right to repair the Premises, the Building and/or the Common Area at the expense of Landlord under any Applicable Laws including without limitation Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code.
ARTICLE 14
LIENS
Tenant shall not permit any mechanic's, materialmen's or other liens to be filed against the Building or Project, nor against Tenant's leasehold interest in the Premises.  Landlord shall have the right at all reasonable times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices which it deems necessary for protection from such liens.  If any such liens are filed, Landlord may, without waiving its rights and remedies based on such breach of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any of its obligations, cause such liens to be released by any means it shall deem proper, including payments in satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such lien.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord at once, upon notice by Landlord, any sum paid by Landlord to remove such liens, 
17

together with interest at the maximum rate per annum permitted by law from the date of such payment by Landlord.
ARTICLE 15
ENTRY BY LANDLORD AND RESERVED RIGHTS OF LANDLORD
Landlord shall at any and all times have the right to enter the Premises for any lawful reason and/or to undertake the following, without limitation:  to inspect the Premises; to supply any service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder; to show the Premises to prospective purchasers or tenants; to post notices of nonresponsibility, to alter, improve or repair the Premises or any other portion of the Building or Project; to install, use, maintain, repair, alter, relocate or replace any pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, equipment or other facilities in the Common Areas or the Building or Project; to grant easements on the Project, dedicate for public use portions thereof and record covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project and/or amendments to existing CC&Rs which do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises; change the name of the Building or Project; affix reasonable signs and displays; and, during the last nine (9) months of the Term, place signs for the rental of and show the Premises to prospective tenants, all without being deemed guilty of any eviction of Tenant and without abatement of Rent.  Landlord may, in order to carry out any of the foregoing purposes, erect scaffolding and other necessary structures where required by the character of the work to be performed.  Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss in, upon and about the Premises.  Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all doors in the Premises.  Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises.  Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means, or otherwise, shall not be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into the Premises, or any eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, and any damages caused on account thereof shall be paid by Tenant.  It is understood and agreed that no provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as otherwise expressly agreed herein by Landlord.
ARTICLE 16
UTILITIES AND SERVICES
Tenant shall be solely responsible to furnish or cause to be furnished to the Premises the utilities and services described in the Standards for Utilities and Services, attached hereto as EXHIBIT C, subject to the conditions and in accordance with the standards set forth therein.  Tenant shall timely pay all utilities bills as and when due, and no later than ten (10) days prior to delinquency.  Landlord's failure to furnish any of the foregoing items for any reason whatsoever shall not result in any liability to Landlord.  In addition, Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of such failure, no eviction of Tenant shall result from such failure and Tenant shall not be relieved from the performance of any covenant or agreement 
18

in this Lease because of such failure.  In the event of any failure, stoppage or interruption thereof, Tenant shall diligently attempt to resume service promptly.
ARTICLE 17
BANKRUPTCY
If Tenant shall file a petition in bankruptcy under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code as then in effect, or if Tenant shall be adjudicated a bankrupt in involuntary bankruptcy proceedings and such adjudication shall not have been vacated within thirty days from the date thereof, or if a receiver or trustee shall be appointed of Tenant's property and the order appointing such receiver or trustee shall not be set aside or vacated within thirty days after the entry thereof, or if Tenant shall assign Tenant's estate or effects for the benefit of creditors, or if this Lease shall, by operation of law or otherwise, pass to any person or persons other than Tenant, then in any such event Landlord may terminate this Lease, if Landlord so elects, with or without notice of such election and with or without entry or action by Landlord.  In such case, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, Landlord, in addition to any and all rights and remedies allowed by law or equity, shall, upon such termination, be entitled to recover damages in the amount provided in Article 23 hereof.  Neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant or by virtue of any statute or order of any court shall be entitled to possession of the Premises but shall surrender the Premises to Landlord.  Nothing contained herein shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to recover damages by reason of any such termination equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved; whether or not such amount is greater, equal to, or less than the amount of damages recoverable under the provisions of this Article 17.
ARTICLE 18
INDEMNIFICATION
Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord's affiliated entities, and each of their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties, costs, liabilities, and expenses, including all costs, attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon (“collectively, “Claims”), arising at any time during or after the Term as a result (directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (a) any default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant's part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, or (b) Tenant's use of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant's business or any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or any Tenant Party in or about the Premises, the Building, the Common Area or other portions of the Project, regardless of where in or about the Project such Claims arise or are incurred. The foregoing indemnity obligation shall include, without limitation, any claim by any Tenant Party for any injury or illness caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by any furniture, carpeting, draperies, stoves or any other materials on the Premises.  Tenant, as a 
19

material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to person in, upon or about the Project from any cause whatsoever.  The obligations of Tenant under this Article 18 shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to any Claims or liability arising prior to such termination.
ARTICLE 19
DAMAGE TO TENANT'S PROPERTY
Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for (i) any damage to any property entrusted to employees of the Project, (ii) loss or damage to any property by theft or otherwise, (iii) any injury or damage to property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Project or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing work therein or from the roof, street or sub-surface or from any other place or resulting from dampness or from any other cause whatsoever.  Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for interference with light or other incorporeal hereditaments, nor shall Landlord be liable for any damage caused by latent defect in the Premises or in the Project.

ARTICLE 20
INSURANCE
(a)    Tenant shall, during the term hereof and any other period of occupancy, at its sole cost and expense, keep in full force and effect the following insurance:
(i)    Standard form property insurance insuring against the perils of fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended coverage ("All-Risk") and sprinkler leakage.  This insurance policy shall be upon all property owned by Tenant, for which Tenant is legally liable or that was installed at Tenant's expense, and which is located in the Project including, without limitation, furniture, fittings, installations, fixtures (other than Tenant improvements installed by Landlord), and any other personal property in an amount not less than ninety percent (90%) of the full replacement cost thereof.  In the event that there shall be a dispute as to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the decision of Landlord or any mortgagees of Landlord shall be conclusive.  This insurance policy shall also be upon direct or indirect loss of Tenant's earnings attributable to Tenant's inability to use fully or obtain access to the Premises or Project in an amount as will properly reimburse Tenant.  Such policy shall name Landlord and any mortgagees of Landlord as insured parties, as their respective interests may appear.
(ii)    Commercial General Liability Insurance insuring Tenant against any liability arising out of the lease, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises, the Project and all areas appurtenant thereto.  Such insurance shall be in the amount of $5,000,000 Combined Single Limit for injury to, or death of one or more persons in an occurrence, and for damage to tangible property (including loss of use) in an occurrence, with such liability amount to be

adjusted from year to year to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index.  The policy shall insure the hazards of premises and operation, independent contractors, contractual liability (covering the Indemnity contained in Section 18 hereof) and shall (1) name Landlord as an additional insured, and (2) contain a cross liability provision, and (3) contain a provision that "the insurance provided the Landlord hereunder shall be primary and non-contributing with any other insurance available to the Landlord."
(iii)    Workers' Compensation and Employer's Liability insurance (as required by state law).
(iv)    Rental loss insurance in an amount equal to all unpaid Rent which would be due for a period of eighteen (18) months under the Lease.  The amount of such rental loss insurance shall be increased from time to time during the Term as and when the Rent increases (including estimated increases in Additional Rent as reasonably determined by Landlord).
(v)    Tenant shall obtain and maintain loss of income and extra expense insurance in amounts as will reimburse Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earnings attributable to all peril commonly insured against by prudent lessees in the business of Tenant or attributable to prevention of access to the Premises as a result of such perils.
(vi)    Any other form or forms of insurance as Tenant or Landlord or any mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in form, in amounts and for insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would protect itself.
 (b)    All policies shall be written in a form satisfactory to Landlord and shall be taken out with insurance companies holding a General Policyholders Rating of "A" and a Financial Rating of "X" or better, as set forth in the most current issue of Bests Insurance Guide.  Within ten (10) days after the execution of this Lease, and as a condition precedent to Landlord’s obligation to deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of policies or certificates evidencing the existence of the amounts and forms of coverage satisfactory to Landlord.  No such policy shall be cancelable or reducible in coverage except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord.  Tenant shall, within ten days prior to the expiration of such policies, furnish Landlord with renewals or "binders" thereof, or Landlord may order such insurance and charge the cost thereof to Tenant as additional rent.  If Landlord obtains any insurance that is the responsibility of Tenant under this section, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written statement setting forth the cost of any such insurance and showing in reasonable detail the manner in which it has been computed.  All insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant covering the Premises, including but not limited to contents, fire, and casualty insurance, shall to the extent permitted by law expressly waive any right on the part of the insurer against the Landlord.   The failure of any insurance policy to include such waiver clause or endorsement shall not affect the validity of this Lease.

ARTICLE 21
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
21.1    Casualty.  If the Premises or Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice to Landlord.  Within thirty (30) days after receipt from Tenant of such written notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the necessary repairs can reasonably be made:  (a) within ninety (90) days; (b) in more than ninety (90) days but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days; or (c) in more than one hundred eighty (180) days, in each case after the date of the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed.
21.1.1    Less Than 90 Days.  If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed within ninety (90) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed, this Lease shall not terminate and, provided that insurance proceeds are available to pay for the full repair of all damage, Landlord shall repair the Premises to the extent of insurance proceeds actually collected by Landlord, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant's Property which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by or for the benefit of Tenant.  If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord's repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises) from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
21.1.2      Greater Than 90 Days.  If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed in more than ninety (90) days but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed, then Landlord shall have the option of:  (a) terminating the Lease effective upon the occurrence of such damage, in which event the Base Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises; or (b) electing to repair the Premises, provided insurance proceeds are available to pay for the full repair of all damage (except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant's Property).  If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord's repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises) from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period the Premises are unfit for occupancy.  In the event that Landlord should fail to substantially complete such repairs within one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the 
22

Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed (such period to be extended for delays caused by Tenant or because of any items of Force Majeure (as hereinafter defined), and Tenant has not reoccupied the Premises, Tenant shall have the right, as Tenant's exclusive remedy, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such one hundred eighty(180) day period, and provided that such repairs have not been substantially completed within such ten (10) day period, to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord as Tenant's exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights of Tenant hereunder shall cease and terminate thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of such notice.
21.1.3    Greater Than 180 Days.  If the Premises or Building should be so damaged that rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the issuance of permits for the necessary repair or reconstruction of the portion of the Building or Premises which was damaged or destroyed, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord specifying such time period of repair; and this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises. In the event that neither party elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall commence and prosecute to completion the repairs to the Building or Premises, provided insurance proceeds are available to pay for the repair of all damage (except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant's Property). If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord's repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises), from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period that the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
21.1.4    Casualty During the Last Year of the Lease Term.  Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if the Premises or the Building shall be damaged within the last year of the Lease Term, and if the cost to repair or reconstruct the portion of the Building or the Premises which was damaged or destroyed shall exceed $10,000, then, irrespective of the time necessary to complete such repair or reconstruction, Landlord shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate the Lease effective upon the occurrence of such damage, in which event the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises.  The foregoing right shall be in addition to any other right and option of Landlord under this Article 21.
21.2    Uninsured Casualty.  Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay to Landlord Tenant's share of any deductible or retention amount payable under the property insurance for the Building.  In the event that the Premises or any portion of the Building is damaged to the extent Tenant is unable to use the Premises and such damage is not covered by insurance proceeds received by Landlord or in the event that the holder of any indebtedness secured by the Premises requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord's option, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, either (i) to repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Landlord's expense, or (ii) to give written notice to 
23

Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Landlord's intention to terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage.  In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall have the right within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice to give written notice to Landlord of Tenant's commitment to pay the cost of repair of such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Landlord shall make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible subject to the following conditions:  Tenant shall deposit with Landlord Landlord's estimated cost of such repairs not later than five (5) business days prior to Landlord's commencement of the repair work.  If the cost of such repairs exceeds the amount deposited, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such excess cost within ten (10) business days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord.  Any amount deposited by Tenant in excess of the cost of such repairs shall be refunded within thirty (30) days of Landlord's final payment to Landlord's contractor.  If Tenant does not give such notice within the ten (10) day period, or fails to make such deposit as required, Landlord shall have the right, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, to immediately terminate this Lease to be effective as of the date of the occurrence of the damage.  
21.3    Waiver.  With respect to any damage or destruction which Landlord is obligated to repair or may elect to repair, Tenant waives all rights to terminate this Lease pursuant to rights otherwise presently or hereafter accorded by law, including without limitation any rights granted under Section 1932, subdivision 2, and Section 1933, of the California Civil Code.
ARTICLE 22
EMINENT DOMAIN
22.1    Total Condemnation.  If all of the Premises is condemned by eminent domain, inversely condemned or sold under threat of condemnation for any public or quasi-public use or purpose ("Condemned"), this Lease shall terminate as of the earlier of the date the condemning authority takes title to or possession of the Premises, and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of termination.
22.2    Partial Condemnation.  If any portion of the Premises or the Building is Condemned and such partial condemnation materially impairs Tenant's ability to use the Premises for Tenant's business as reasonably determined by Landlord, Landlord shall have the option in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion of either (i) relocating Tenant to comparable space within the Project or (ii) terminating this Lease as of the earlier of the date title vests in the condemning authority or as of the date an order of immediate possession is issued and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of termination.  If such partial condemnation does not materially impair Tenant's ability to use the Premises for the business of Tenant, Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to the extent of any condemnation proceeds recovered by Landlord, excluding the portion thereof lost in such condemnation, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that after the date of such title vesting or order of immediate possession Rent shall be adjusted as reasonably determined by Landlord.
24

22.3    Award.  If the Premises are wholly or partially Condemned, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award paid for such condemnation, and Tenant waives any claim to any part of the award from Landlord or the condemning authority; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to recover from the condemning authority such compensation as may be separately awarded to Tenant in connection with costs in removing Tenant’s merchandise, furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements and equipment to a new location.  No condemnation of any kind shall be construed to constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant or a breach of any express or implied covenant of quiet enjoyment.  Tenant hereby waives the effect of Sections 1265.120 and 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
22.4    Temporary Condemnation.  In the event of a temporary condemnation not extending beyond the Term, this Lease shall remain in effect, Tenant shall continue to pay Rent and Tenant shall receive any award made for such condemnation except damages to any of Landlord's property.  If a temporary condemnation is for a period which extends beyond the Term, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of initial occupancy by the condemning authority and any such award shall be distributed in accordance with the preceding section.  If a temporary condemnation remains in effect at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord the reasonable cost of performing any obligations required of Tenant with respect to the surrender of the Premises.
ARTICLE 23
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
23.1    Event of Default.  The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default (an "Event of Default") hereunder by Tenant:
(i)    The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant.  Abandonment is herein defined to include, but is not limited to, any absence by Tenant from the Premises for five (5) business days or longer.
(ii)    The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or additional rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due.
(iii)    The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the express or implied covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than as specified in Section 23.1(a)(i) or (ii) above.
(iv)    (1) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (2) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within thirty (30) days); (3)  the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (4)  the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of 
25

substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease where such seizure is not discharged within thirty days.
(v)    The making of any material misrepresentation or omission by Tenant or any successor in interest of Tenant in any materials delivered by or on behalf of Tenant to Landlord or Landlord's lender pursuant to this Lease.
(vi)    The occurrence of an Event of Default set forth in any of the foregoing clauses (iv) or (v) with respect to any guarantor of this Lease, if applicable.
(vii)    Any failure of Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease to comply with the terms of Section 49(b) hereof.
23.2.    Remedies.  
23.2.1    Termination.  In the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant (which notice shall be in lieu of any notice required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, et seq.) and, on the date specified in such notice, this Lease shall terminate unless on or before such date all arrears of Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease and all costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other Events of Default at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord.
23.2.2    Repossession.  Following termination, without prejudice to other remedies Landlord may have, Landlord may (i) peaceably re-enter the Premises upon voluntary surrender by Tenant or remove Tenant therefrom and any other persons occupying the Premises, using such legal proceedings as may be available; (ii) repossess the Premises or relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term), at such rental and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in Landlord's sole discretion shall determine, with the right to make reasonable alterations and repairs to the Premises; and (iii) remove all personal property therefrom.
23.2.3    Unpaid Rent/Sums Expended by Landlord.  Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies of a landlord provided by Applicable Law, including the right to recover from Tenant:  (a) the worth, at the time of award, of the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination, (b)the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned after the date of termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (c) the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (d) all unamortized free rent, if any, (e) any and all unamortized sums expended by Landlord for tenant improvements and leasing commissions, and (f) any other amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's default. The phrase "worth, at the time of award," as used in (a) and (b) above, shall 
26

be computed at the Applicable Interest Rate, and as used in (c) above, 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%).  The items referenced in (d) and (e) shall be amortized on a straight line basis over the length of the Term of this Lease.
23.2.4    Continuation.  Even though an Event of Default may have occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession; and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 ("lessor" may continue the 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) to recover Rent as it becomes due. Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may, during the period Tenant is in default, enter the Premises and relet the same, or any portion thereof, to third parties for Tenant's account and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, brokers' commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises and like costs.  Reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining Term. Tenant shall continue to pay the Rent on the date the same is due. No act by Landlord hereunder, including acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease, shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease.  In the event that Landlord elects to relet the Premises, the rent that Landlord receives from reletting shall be applied to the payment of, first, any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Rent and Additional Rent; second, all costs, including maintenance, incurred by Landlord in reletting; and, third, Base Rent and Additional Rent under this Lease. After deducting the payments referred to above, any sum remaining from the rental Landlord receives from reletting shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord. If, on the date Rent is due under this Lease, the rent received from the reletting is less than the Rent due on that date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the remaining Rent due, all costs, including maintenance, which Landlord incurred in reletting the Premises that remain after applying the rent received from reletting as provided hereinabove. So long as this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall have the right to remedy any default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises, to cause a receiver to be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to add to the Rent payable hereunder all of Landlord's reasonable costs in so doing, including without limitation attorney's fees and costs, with interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure.  Landlord shall have no duty to relet the Premises so long as it has other unleased space available in the Project.
23.2.5    Cumulative.  Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and shall not preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of Rent; and 
27

Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue other remedies.
ARTICLE 24
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
24.1    Tenant shall not voluntarily assign or encumber its interest in this Lease or in the Premises, or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or allow any other person or entity to occupy or use all or any part of the Premises, without first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent.  Any assignment, encumbrance or sublease without Landlord's prior written consent shall be voidable, at Landlord's election, and shall constitute a default and at the option of the Landlord shall result in a termination of this Lease.  No consent to assignment, encumbrance, or sublease shall constitute a further waiver of the provisions of this section.  Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's intent to sublease, encumber or assign this Lease and Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written notice, elect one of the following:
(a)    Consent to such proposed assignment, encumbrance or sublease;
(b)    Refuse such consent, which refusal shall be on reasonable grounds; or
(c)    Recapture the entire Premises, or at Lender's election, such part as Tenant desires to sublease or assign, in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord.
In the event Landlord consents to an assignment or sublease in accordance with this Lease, the Base Rent per month under this Lease shall be increased to the fair market  value as reasonably determined by Landlord, to be effective on the effective date of such assignment or sublease; provided that in no event shall the amount of Base Rent be lower than the amount of Base Rent Tenant is then paying under the Lease.
24.2    As a condition for granting its consent to any assignment, encumbrance or sublease, sixty (60) days prior to any anticipated assignment or sublease Tenant shall give Landlord and Landlord's lender written notice (the "Assignment Notice"), which shall set forth the name, address and business of the proposed assignee or sublessee, information (including references) concerning the character, ownership, and financial condition of the proposed assignee or sublessee, and the Assignment Date, any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the proposed assignee or sublessee, and the consideration of all other material terms and conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease, all in such detail as Landlord shall reasonably require.  If Landlord requests additional detail, the Assignment Notice shall not be deemed to have been received until Landlord receives such additional detail, and Landlord may withhold consent to any assignment or sublease until such additional detail is provided to it.  Further, Landlord may require that the sublessee or assignee remit directly to Landlord on a monthly basis, all monies due to Tenant by said assignee or sublessee.
24.3    The consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not be construed as relieving Tenant or any assignee of this Lease or sublessee of the Premises from obtaining the 
28

express written consent of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting or as releasing Tenant or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant from any liability or obligation hereunder whether or not then accrued.  Regardless of whether or not Landlord shall consent to an assignment or sublease, Tenant shall pay Landlord all of Landlord's attorneys' fees and administrative costs incurred in connection with evaluating the Assignment Notice immediately upon demand.  This section shall be fully applicable to all further sales, hypothecations, transfers, assignments and subleases of any portion of the Premises by any successor or assignee of Tenant, or any sublessee of the Premises.
24.4    As used in this section, the subletting of substantially all of the Premises for substantially all of the remaining term of this Lease shall be deemed an assignment rather than a sublease.  The assignment, sale or transfer of a twenty-five (25%) interest in Tenant shall be deemed an assignment requiring Landlord's consent hereunder.  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall consent to the assignment, sale or transfer if the Assignment Notice states that Tenant desires to assign the Lease to any entity into which Tenant is merged, with which Tenant is consolidated or which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, provided that the assignee first executes, acknowledges and delivers to Landlord an agreement whereby the assignee agrees to be bound by all of the covenants and agreements in this Lease which Tenant has agreed to keep, observe or perform, that the assignee agrees that the provisions of this section shall be binding upon it as if it were the original Tenant hereunder and that the assignee shall have a net worth (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied) immediately after such assignment which is at least equal to the net worth (as so determined) of Tenant: (1) at the commencement of this Lease or (2) immediately before such assignment; whichever is greater.
24.5    Except as provided above, Landlord's consent to any sublease or assignment shall not be unreasonably withheld.  A condition to such consent shall be delivery by Tenant to Landlord of a true copy of the sublease or assignment agreement.  If for any proposed assignment or sublease Tenant receives rent or other consideration, either initially or over the term of the assignment or sublease, in excess of the Rent called for hereunder (as such Rent is adjusted pursuant to Section 24.1), or, in case of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such rent fairly allocable to such portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments called for hereunder are taken into account, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent hereunder one hundred percent (100%) of the excess of each such payment of rent or other consideration received by Tenant promptly after its receipt.  Landlord's waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall not relieve Tenant from any obligation under this lease.  For the purpose of this section, the Rent for each square foot of floor space in the Premises shall be deemed equal.
29

ARTICLE 25
SUBORDINATION; MORTGAGEE PROTECTION 
25.1    Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all ground leases, master leases and the lien of all mortgages and deeds of trust which now or hereafter affect the Premises or the Project or Landlord's interest therein, the CC&Rs and all amendments thereto, all without the necessity of Tenant's executing further instruments to effect such subordination.  If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord's request whatever documentation that may reasonably be required to further effect the provisions of this section including, without limitation, a Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement in such form as may be required by Landlord's lender.  Should any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust request that this Lease and Tenant's rights hereunder be made superior, rather than subordinate, to the mortgage or deed of trust, then Tenant will, within ten (10) days after written request, execute and deliver such agreement as may be required by such holder in order to effectuate and evidence such superiority of the Lease to the mortgage or deed of trust.
25.2    Attornment.  Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant will recognize as its landlord under this Lease and shall attorn to any person succeeding to the interest of Landlord in respect of the land and the buildings governed by this Lease upon any foreclosure of any mortgage upon such land or buildings or upon the execution of any deed in lieu of foreclosure in respect to such deed of trust.  If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming its attornment as provided for herein; provided, however, that no such beneficiary or successor- in-interest shall be bound by any payment of Base Rent for more than one (1) month in advance, or any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the express written consent of such beneficiary where such consent is required under applicable loan documents.
25.3    Mortgagee Protection.  Tenant agrees to give Landlord's lender or any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust secured by the Project, by registered or certified mail or nationally recognized overnight delivery service, a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord by Tenant, provided that, prior to such notice, Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of service on Tenant of a copy of assignment of rents and leases or otherwise) of the address of such lender or such holder of a mortgage or deed of trust.  Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within sixty (60) days after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced within such sixty (60) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then Landlord's lender or the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust shall have an additional ninety (90) days within which to cure or correct such default (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if such holder of any mortgage or deed of trust has commenced within such ninety (90) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Landlord's lender or any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust have any obligation to cure any default of the Landlord.
30

ARTICLE 26
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
(a)    Within ten days following any written request which Landlord or Landlord's lender may make from time to time, Tenant shall duly execute (and if required by Landlord or Landlord's lender, have such signature acknowledged) and deliver to Landlord and Landlord's lender, an estoppel certificate in the form then in use by Landlord or its lender.  Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Article 26 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Building or Project or any interest therein.
    (b)    Tenant's failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be an Event of Default hereunder and shall conclusive upon Tenant:  
(i)    That this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord,
(ii)    That there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance,
(iii)    That not more than one month's rental has been paid in advance; and
(iv)    That Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against Rent hereunder.
If Landlord's lender should require that this Lease be amended (other than in the description of the Premises, the Term, the Permitted Use, the Rent or as will substantially, materially and adversely affect the rights of Tenant), Landlord shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, which notice shall be accompanied by a Lease supplement embodying such amendments.  Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the receipt of Landlord's notice, execute and deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement.  If Tenant fails to deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord's notice, Tenant shall be deemed to have given Landlord a power of attorney to execute such supplement on behalf of Tenant.
ARTICLE 27
SIGNAGE
Except as expressly permitted in this Article 27, Tenant shall not, without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) install or maintain signage in any location in, on or about the Premises, the Building, the Project, or Bernal Corporate Park and shall not display or erect any Tenant identification sign, display or other advertising material that is visible from the exterior of the Building.  
(a)    During the Term, and subject to the remainder of this Article 27, Tenant shall have the following signage rights (collectively, “Tenant’s Signs”): (i) the right to maintain the 
31

following signage which exists as of the date of this Lease: _________  (“Existing Signage”), (ii) the right to design, prepare and install, at Tenant’s sole cost, one (1) parapet sign on the eastern exterior wall of the Building (facing Valley Avenue) in a location to be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant (and subject to approval by the City of Pleasanton) (“Parapet Signage”), and (iii) the right to maintain Tenant’s existing sign panels upon the monument sign located on Koll Center Parkway and/or to modify or replace such existing sign panels at Tenant’s cost (“Monument Signage”), provided, however, that in no event shall Tenant modify, replace or remove the “Sycamore Terrace” designation thereon.  Landlord shall have the right to reasonably approve of the color, size, place and materials of all of Tenant’s Signs.  
(b)     Tenant shall pay for the cost of Tenant’s Signs to be permitted, designed, prepared, installed and maintained in good condition and repair.

The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant or 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.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted.  Tenant agrees and acknowledges that the foregoing provides actual and sufficient knowledge to Tenant, pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161.1(c), that acceptance of a partial rent payment by Landlord does not constitute a waiver of any of Landlord's rights under said Section 1161.1(c).

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Tenant shall have no right to exercise the Renewal Option (or if the Renewal Option is exercised, but the following conditions are not satisfied, then the exercise of the Renewal Option shall be void) if: (i) there has been materially adverse change in the financial condition of the Tenant, as of the Commencement Date, or (ii) if the net worth (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied) of the Tenant at the time it desires to exercise the Renewal Option or as of the commencement date of the Extension Term is less than the net worth (as so determined) of Tenant: (1) at the Commencement Date or (2) mutual execution and delivery of this Lease, whichever is greater.

Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Substantially Complete the Restroom Remodel in accordance with the “Preliminary Schedule” prepared by Metcon TI, Inc. dated March 3, 2019 attached hereto as Exhibit G-1, subject to Tenant Delays and events of Force Majeure.

The Refurbishment Items shall be considered Alterations as defined in this Lease and shall be performed in accordance with the terms of this Lease.  No unused portion of the Tenant Refurbishment Allowance shall be applicable toward Rent.  When Tenant has completed Refurbishment Items in compliance with the Lease and so long as no Event of Default has occurred (after applicable notice and cure periods), and provided that Landlord has received no notice of the filing or threatened filing of any mechanic's or materialmen's lien, Landlord shall disburse to Tenant, no more than once per calendar quarter, the amount of Tenant Refurbishment Allowance due to Tenant within ten (10) business days after the last to occur of the following: Landlord's receipt of (i) invoices from Tenant and/or all of Tenant's contractors, subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers retained directly or indirectly by Tenant for labor rendered and materials delivered to the Premises (“Tenant's

ARTICLE 59
CIVIL CODE SECTION 1938 DISCLOSURE

Pursuant to Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby advises Tenant that as of the date of this Lease neither the Premises, the Building nor the Project have undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist.  Further, pursuant to Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord notifies Tenant of the following:  “A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the Premises and determine whether the Premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law.  Although California state law does not require a CASp inspection of the Premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the 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 any such CASp inspection, the payment of the costs and fees for the CASp inspection and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the Premises.”  Therefore and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord and Tenant agree that (a) Tenant may, at its option and at its sole cost, cause a CASp to inspect the Premises and determine whether the Premises complies with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under California law, (b) the parties shall mutually coordinate and reasonably approve of the timing of any such CASp inspection so that Landlord may, at its option, have a representative present during such inspection, and (c) Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost of any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the Premises, in the Building or at the Project identified by any such CASp inspection, and if any alterations and repairs to other portions of the Building or the Project are required as a result of Tenant’s CASp inspection then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, for the cost to Landlord of performing such alterations and repairs; provided, however, unless such repair or alterations relate solely to other alterations to the Premises which Tenant is obligated to, //or elects to, remove upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term (in which case Tenant shall simultaneously also remove any CASp identified alterations and repairs), Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any repairs or alterations made pursuant to a CASp inspection under this Article 59.
