All such Base Rent shall be payable by Tenant in accordance with the
terms of Section 6.A of the Lease, provided that upon Tenant's
execution and delivery of this Amendment to Landlord, Tenant shall pay
to Landlord the Base Rent for the Expansion Space for the period of
September 10-30, 2001.
Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the foregoing schedule is based on
the assumption that the Expansion Effective Date is September 10, 2001.
If the Expansion Effective Date is other than September 10, 2001, the
schedule set forth above with respect to the payment of any
installment(s) of Base Rent for the Expansion Space shall be
appropriately adjusted on a per diem basis to reflect the actual
Expansion Effective Date, and the actual Expansion Effective Date shall
be set forth in a confirmation letter to be prepared by Landlord.

Rent rate shall not be postponed as a result of an adjustment of the
Expansion Effective Date as provided above.
III. ADDITIONAL SECURITY DEPOSIT. Upon Tenant's execution and delivery of
this Amendment to Landlord, Tenant shall pay Landlord the sum of
$503,000.00 (the "Additional Security") which shall be added to and
become part of the Security Deposit required pursuant to Article 19 of
the Lease, provided that Tenant shall have the right to instead deliver
such Additional Security to Landlord in the form of an amendment to the
existing Letter of Credit previously provided by Tenant to Landlord
pursuant to Section 39.G of the Lease (the "Existing L-C"), and in such
event the terms of Article 19 and Section 39.G of the Lease, as amended
by this Amendment, shall apply. In the event that Tenant elects to
deliver the Additional Security to Landlord in the form of an amendment
to the Existing L-C, then Tenant shall deliver the amendment to the
Existing L-C to Landlord within 5 days following Tenant's execution and
delivery of this Amendment to Landlord. The Additional Security shall
constitute additional security for payment of Rent and the performance
of the other terms and conditions of the Lease, as amended, by Tenant.
Accordingly, simultaneous with Tenant's execution and delivery of this
Amendment to Landlord, the Security Deposit is increased from
$275,000.00 to $778,000.00. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of
Article 19 of the Lease or Section 39.G of the Lease, provided that
Tenant is not then in default under the Lease, as amended, and provided
further that Tenant has not been in material default under the Lease,
as amended, on more than 3 occasions during the Expansion Term, the
Security Deposit required to be held by Landlord shall be reduced as

to Landlord in the form of cash, then Landlord shall determine, in
Landlord's sole discretion, whether the Letter of Credit or the cash
portion of the Security Deposit, or a combination of both, shall be
reduced pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section III, and
if Landlord determines that the cash portion of the Security Deposit
shall be reduced, then Landlord shall apply the amount of such
reduction against Tenant's Base Rent obligations for the next
succeeding months of the Term (until such amount has been fully
credited against Base Rent). In the event that Tenant delivers the
Additional Security to Landlord in the form of an amendment to the
Existing L-C, then the Existing L-C shall be amended so that the
beneficiary thereof is the Landlord named in this Amendment, and the

Expansion Space. If Tenant takes possession of the Expansion Space

conditions of the Lease and this Amendment, and Tenant shall pay Base
Rent and Additional Rent as applicable to the Expansion Space to
Landlord on a per diem basis for each day of occupancy prior to the

WORK LETTER
This Exhibit is attached to and made a part of that certain First
Amendment to Lease (the "Amendment") dated as of the _________ day of September,
2001, by and between EOP - MARINA BUSINESS CENTER, L.L.C., A DELAWARE LIMITED
LIABILITY COMPANY ("Landlord") and CANCERVAX CORPORATION, A DELAWARE CORPORATION
("Tenant") for space in the Building located at 4503 Glencoe Avenue, Marina del
Rey, California.
As used in this Work Letter, the "Premises" shall be deemed to mean only the
Expansion Space, as defined in the attached Amendment.
I. ALTERATIONS AND ALLOWANCE.
A. Tenant, following the delivery of the Premises by Landlord and
the full and final execution and delivery of the Amendment to
which this Exhibit is attached and all prepaid rental and
security deposits required under such agreement, shall have
the right to perform alterations and improvements in the
Premises (the "Expansion Space Alterations"). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Tenant and its contractors shall not have the
right to perform Expansion Space Alterations in the Premises
unless and until Tenant has complied with all of the terms and
conditions of Article 12 of the Lease and has obtained the
approval by Landlord of the final plans and specifications for
the Expansion Space Alterations (the "Plans") and the
contractors to be retained by Tenant to perform such Expansion
Space Alterations. Tenant shall be responsible for all
elements of the design of Tenant's Plans (including, without
limitation, compliance with law, functionality of design, the
structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the
premises and the placement of Tenant's furniture, appliances
and equipment), and Landlord's approval of Tenant's Plans
shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for
such design. Landlord's approval of the contractors to perform
the Expansion Space Alterations shall not be unreasonably
withheld. The parties agree that Landlord's approval of the
general contractor to perform the Expansion Space Alterations
shall not be considered to be unreasonably withheld if any
such general contractor (i) does not have trade references
reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (ii) does not maintain
insurance of the type(s) and in the amount(s) as required by
Landlord, in Landlord's sole discretion, (iii) does not have
the ability to be bonded for the work in an amount of no less
than 150% of the total estimated cost of the Expansion Space
Alterations, (iv) does not provide current financial
statements reasonably acceptable to Landlord, or (v) is not
licensed as a contractor in the State of California. Tenant
acknowledges the foregoing is not intended to be an exclusive
list of the reasons why Landlord may reasonably withhold its
consent to a general contractor. In addition to being
responsible for the construction of the Expansion Space
Alterations, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense,
be responsible for the demolition and removal of any existing
improvements in the Premises or the Original Premises, to the
extent any such demolition and removal is necessary.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article 12 of the
Lease, Tenant shall not be required to pay an administration
fee in connection with Landlord's oversight of the Expansion
Space Alterations.
B. Provided Tenant is not in default, Landlord agrees to
contribute the sum of $503,000.00 ($20.00 per rentable square
foot of the Premises) (the "Allowance") toward the cost of
performing the Expansion Space Alterations in preparation of
Tenant's occupancy of the Premises. The Allowance may only be
used for (i) the cost of preparing design and construction
documents and mechanical and electrical plans for the
Expansion Space Alterations, (ii) hard costs in connection
with the Expansion Space Alterations, and (iii) consulting
fees associated with the validation of the Expansion Space
Alterations. The Allowance, less a 10% retainage (which
retainage shall be payable as part of the final draw), shall
be paid to Tenant or, at Landlord's option, to the order of
the general contractor that performs the Expansion Space
Alterations, in periodic disbursements within 30 days after
receipt of the following documentation: (i) an application for
payment and sworn statement of contractor substantially in the
form of AIA Document G-702 covering all work for which
disbursement is to be made to a date specified therein; (ii) a
certification from an AIA architect substantially in the form
of the Architect's Certificate for Payment which is located on
AIA Document G702,
-9-
<PAGE>
Application and Certificate of Payment; (iii) contractor's,
subcontractor's and material supplier's waivers of liens which
shall cover all Expansion Space Alterations for which
disbursement is being requested and all other statements and
forms required for compliance with the mechanics' lien laws of
the State of California, together with all such invoices,
contracts, or other supporting data as Landlord or Landlord's
mortgagee may reasonably require; (iv) a cost breakdown for
each trade or subcontractor performing the Expansion Space
Alterations; (v) plans and specifications for the Expansion
Space Alterations, together with a certificate from an AIA
architect that such plans and specifications comply in all
material respects with all laws affecting the Building,
Project and Premises; (vi) copies of all construction
contracts for the Expansion Space Alterations, together with
copies of all change orders, if any; and (vii) a request to
disburse from Tenant containing an approval by Tenant of the
work done and a good faith estimate of the cost to complete
the Expansion Space Alterations. Upon completion of the
Expansion Space Alterations, and prior to final disbursement
of the Allowance, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with: (1)
general contractor and architect's completion affidavits, (2)
full and final waivers of lien, (3) receipted bills covering
all labor and materials expended and used, (4) as-built plans
of the Expansion Space Alterations, and (5) the certification
of Tenant and its architect that the Expansion Space
Alterations have been installed in a good and workmanlike
manner in accordance with the approved Plans, and in
accordance with applicable laws, codes and ordinances. In no
event shall Landlord be required to disburse the Allowance
more than one time per month. If the Expansion Space
Alterations exceed the Allowance, Tenant shall be entitled to
the Allowance in accordance with the terms hereof, but each
individual disbursement of the Allowance shall be disbursed in
the proportion that the Allowance bears to the total cost for
the Expansion Space Alterations, less the 10% retainage
referenced above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to disburse any
portion of the Allowance during the continuance of an uncured
default under the Lease, and Landlord's obligation to disburse
shall only resume when and if such default is cured.
C. In no event shall the Allowance be used for the purchase of
equipment, furniture or other items of personal property of
Tenant. If Tenant does not submit a request for payment of the
entire Allowance to Landlord in accordance with the provisions
contained in this Exhibit by August 14, 2002, any unused
amount shall accrue to the sole benefit of Landlord, it being
understood that Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit,
abatement or other concession in connection therewith. Tenant
shall be responsible for all applicable state sales or use
taxes, if any, payable in connection with the Expansion Space
Alterations and/or Allowance.
D. Commencing on the date which shall be mutually agreed upon by
Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall hold weekly meetings at a
reasonable time, with the architect and the contractor
retained by Tenant regarding the progress of the preparation
of Plans and the construction of the Expansion Space
Alterations, which meetings shall be held at a location
reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and Landlord and/or its
agents shall receive prior notice of, and shall have the right
to attend, all such meetings. Upon Landlord's request, certain
of "Tenant's Agents" (defined in Section F, below) shall
attend such meetings. In addition, minutes shall be taken at
all such meetings, a copy of which minutes shall be promptly
delivered to Landlord. One such meeting each month shall
include the review of the contractor's current request for
payment.
E. Tenant agrees to accept the Premises in its "as-is" condition
and configuration, it being agreed that Landlord shall not be
required to perform any work (subject to Landlord's
obligations under Article 10 of the Lease during the Expansion
Term) or, except as provided above with respect to the
Allowance, incur any costs in connection with the construction
or demolition of any improvements in the Premises.
F. Tenant's indemnity of Landlord as set forth in Article 8 of
the Lease shall also apply with respect to any and all costs,
losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way
to any act or omission of Tenant or Tenant's employees,
agents, customers, visitors, invitees, licensees, contractors,
