Lease Forms
- Start a state-specific lease for the rental of commercial property. Specify the term and rent due, as well as whether the landlord or tenant is responsible for property taxes, insurance, and maintenance and repairs.
- When a tenant vacates commercial property before the lease term has expired, it may be able to rent the premises to a third party. The tenant would be the sublessor and the third party would be the sublessee. Besides preparing a sublease, both parties will want to review the provisions for assignment or subletting in the original lease agreement between the landlord and the sublessor.
- Tenants of residential property should prepare a sublease agreement if they are seeking to sublease a room or the entire apartment or house to a third party. All parties should review the original lease agreement to see if there are any restrictions on subletting or assigning the premises.
- Triple net leases are a type of commercial leases where the tenant has to pay for property taxes, insurance, utilities, and maintenance, in addition to the monthly rent.
- When renting an office space, tenants should understand the amount of the rent and duration of the lease. Other important terms include whether the space can be subleased, which parties are responsible for maintenance, and whether any furniture and furnishings will be provided.

maintaining and repairing the Project, including all costs, expenditures, fees
and charges for: (A) operation, maintenance and repair of the Project (including

landscaping); (B) utilities and services (including telecommunications
facilities and equipment, recycling programs and trash removal), and associated
supplies and materials; (C) compensation (including employment taxes and fringe
benefits) for persons who perform duties in connection with the operation,

replacements, repairs or improvements required to comply with Laws, with
interest on the unamortized balance at the rate paid by Landlord on funds
borrowed to finance such capital improvements (or, if Landlord finances such
improvements out of Landlord's funds without borrowing, the rate that Landlord
would have paid to borrow such funds, as reasonably determined by Landlord),
over such useful life as Landlord shall reasonably determine in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles; (H) an office for the management of
the Project, including expenses of furnishing and equipping such office and the
rental value of any space occupied for such purposes; (I) property management
fees reasonably charged by owners of commercial projects in the geographical
area of the Project; (J) accounting, legal and other professional services
incurred in connection with the operation of the Project and the calculation of
Operating Costs and Taxes; (K) a reasonable allowance for depreciation on

areas of the Project, any fitness center in the Development, the fees and
charges from the Seaport Centre Owners Association and any other fees and
expenses shared with the Development); and (N) any other cost, expenditure, fee
or charge, whether or not hereinbefore described, which in accordance with
generally accepted property management practices would be considered an expense
of managing, operating, maintaining and repairing the Project. Operating Costs
for any calendar year during which average occupancy of the Project is less than
one hundred percent (100%) shall be calculated based upon the Operating Costs
that would have been incurred if the Project had an average occupancy of one
hundred percent (100%) during the entire calendar year.
Operating Costs shall not include (i) costs of special services rendered to
individual tenants (including Tenant) for which a special charge is made; (ii)
interest and principal payments, including penalties and late charges thereon,
on loans or indebtedness secured by the Building; (iii) costs of improvements

tenants in the Project) directly to the applicable public utility company; (vii)

the Operating Costs used by Landlord in determining Tenant's Share of Operating
Costs exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the actual Operating Costs incurred
by Landlord in connection with the Project, and Landlord shall not recover the
costs of any items more than once.
(4) "TAXES" means: all real property taxes and general, special or
district assessments or other governmental impositions, of whatever kind, nature
or origin, imposed on or by reason of the ownership or use of the Project;
governmental charges, fees or
6.
<PAGE>
assessments for transit or traffic mitigation (including area-wide traffic
improvement assessments and transportation system management fees), housing,
police, fire or other governmental service or purported benefits to the Project;
personal property taxes assessed on the personal property of Landlord used in
the operation of the Project; service payments in lieu of taxes and taxes and
assessments of every kind and nature whatsoever levied or assessed in addition
to, in lieu of or in substitution for existing or additional, real or personal
property taxes on the Project or the personal property described above; any
increases in the foregoing caused by changes in assessed valuation, tax rate or
other factors or circumstances; and the reasonable cost of contesting by
appropriate proceedings the amount or validity of any taxes, assessments or
charges described above. Taxes shall not include any state and federal personal
or corporate income taxes measured by the income of Landlord from all sources
(other than taxes on rent at the Property), as well as any franchise,
inheritance, or estate, succession, gift tax, or capital levy. Landlord agrees
that for the purpose of this Lease any special assessments or special taxes for
public improvements to the property will be amortized, with interest at the rate
payable to the assessing or taxing authority, over the maximum time Landlord is
permitted to pay such special assessment or special tax without penalty. To the
extent paid by Tenant or other tenants as "Tenant's Taxes" (as defined in
Section 8 - Tenant's Taxes), "Tenant's Taxes" shall be excluded from Taxes.
(5) "TENANT'S SHARE" means the Rentable Area of the Premises
divided by the total Rentable Area of the Project, as set forth in the Basic
Lease Information. If the Rentable Area of the Project is changed or the
Rentable Area of the Premises is changed by Tenant's leasing of additional space
hereunder or for any other reason, Tenant's Share shall be adjusted accordingly.
(B) Additional Rent.
----------------
(1) Tenant shall pay Landlord as "ADDITIONAL RENT" for each
calendar year or portion thereof during the Term Tenant's Share of the sum of
(x) the amount of Operating Costs, and (y) the amount of Taxes.
(2) Prior to the Commencement Date and each calendar year
thereafter, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord's estimate of Operating
Costs, Taxes and Tenant's Additional Rent for the following calendar year (or
first partial year following the Commencement Date). Commencing on the
Commencement Date, and in subsequent calendar years, on the first day of January
of each calendar year and continuing on the first day of every month thereafter
in such year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one-twelfth (1/12th) of the
Additional Rent, as reasonably estimated by Landlord for such full calendar
year. If Landlord thereafter reasonably estimates that Operating Costs or Taxes
for such year will vary from Landlord's prior estimate, Landlord may, by notice
to Tenant, revise the estimate for such year (and Additional Rent shall
thereafter be payable based on the revised estimate).
(3) As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each
calendar year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement with respect to such
year, showing Operating Costs, Taxes and Additional Rent for the year, and the
total payments made by Tenant with respect thereto. Unless Tenant raises any
objections to Landlord's statement within ninety (90) days after receipt of the
same, such statement shall conclusively be deemed correct and Tenant
7.
<PAGE>
shall have no right thereafter to dispute such statement or any item therein or
the computation of Additional Rent based thereon. If Tenant does object to such
statement, then Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable verification of
the figures shown on the statement and the parties shall negotiate in good faith
to resolve any disputes. Any objection of Tenant to Landlord's statement and
resolution of any dispute shall not postpone the time for payment of any amounts
due Tenant or Landlord based on Landlord's statement, nor shall any failure of
Landlord to deliver Landlord's statement in a timely manner relieve Tenant of
Tenant's obligation to pay any amounts due Landlord based on Landlord's
statement.
(4) If Tenant's Additional Rent as finally determined for any
calendar year exceeds the total payments made by Tenant on account thereof,
Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within twenty (20) days of Tenant's
receipt of Landlord's statement. If the total payments made by Tenant on account
thereof exceed Tenant's Additional Rent as finally determined for such year,
Tenant's excess payment shall be credited toward the rent next due from Tenant
under this Lease. For any partial calendar year at the beginning or end of the
Term, Additional Rent shall be prorated on the basis of a 365-day year by
computing Tenant's Share of the Operating Costs and Taxes for the entire year
and then prorating such amount for the number of days during such year included
in the Term. Notwithstanding the termination of this Lease, Landlord shall pay
to Tenant or Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as the case may be, within twenty
(20) days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's final statement for the calendar
year in which this Lease terminates, the difference between Tenant's Additional
Rent for that year, as finally determined by Landlord, and the total amount
previously paid by Tenant on account thereof.
If for any reason Taxes for any year during the Term are reduced, refunded
or otherwise changed, Tenant's Additional Rent shall be adjusted accordingly.
If Taxes are temporarily reduced as a result of space in the Project being
leased to a tenant that is entitled to an exemption from property taxes or other
taxes, then for purposes of determining Additional Rent for each year in which
Taxes are reduced by any such exemption, Taxes for such year shall be calculated
on the basis of the amount the Taxes for the year would have been in the absence
of the exemption. The obligations of Landlord to refund any overpayment of
Additional Rent and of Tenant to pay any Additional Rent not previously paid
shall survive the expiration of the Term.
3.3 Payment of Rent. All amounts payable or reimbursable by Tenant under
---------------
this Lease, including late charges and interest (collectively, "RENT"), shall
constitute rent and shall be payable and recoverable as rent in the manner
provided in this Lease. All sums payable to Landlord on demand under the terms
of this Lease shall be payable within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice
from Landlord of the amounts due. All rent shall be paid without offset;
recoupment or deduction in lawful money of the United States of America to
Landlord at Landlord's Address for Payment of Rent as set forth in the Basic
Lease Information, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord
may from time to time designate.
4. SECURITY DEPOSIT. On execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with
Landlord the amount specified in the Basic Lease Information as the Security
Deposit, if any (the "SECURITY DEPOSIT"), as security for the performance of
Tenant's obligations under this Lease. Landlord may (but shall have no
obligation to) use the Security Deposit or any portion thereof to cure any Event
of Default under this Lease or to compensate Landlord for any damage Landlord
incurs as a result of Tenant's failure to perform any of Tenant's obligations
hereunder. In such
8.
<PAGE>
event Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand an amount sufficient to replenish
the Security Deposit. If Tenant is not in default at the expiration or
termination of this Lease, then within thirty (30) days after Tenant vacates the
Premises Landlord shall return to Tenant the Security Deposit or the balance
thereof then held by Landlord and not applied as provided above. Landlord may
commingle the Security Deposit with Landlord's general and other funds. Landlord
shall not be required to pay interest on the Security Deposit to Tenant.
5. USE AND COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
5.1 Use. The Premises shall be used and occupied solely for the purposes
---
of (a) general business offices, (b) research and development, and (c) a limited
amount of light manufacturing, and for no other use or purpose. Tenant shall

the Premises (and make any repairs, alterations or improvements as required to

Premises. Tenant shall not do, bring, keep or sell anything in or about the
Premises that is prohibited by, or that will cause a cancellation of or an
increase in the existing premium for, any insurance policy covering the Property

prior consent of Landlord, (i) bring into the Building or the Premises anything
that may cause substantial noise, odor or vibration, overload the floors in the
Premises or the Building or any of the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning
("HVAC"), mechanical, elevator, plumbing, electrical, fire protection, life

(C) Compliance. Tenant shall at Tenant's expense promptly take all
----------
actions required by any governmental agency or entity in connection with or as a
result of the Handling by Tenant of Hazardous Materials at or about the Premises
or Property, including inspection and testing, performing all cleanup, removal
and remediation work required with respect to those Hazardous Materials,
complying with all closure requirements and post-closure monitoring, and filing
all required reports or plans. All of the foregoing work and all Handling by
Tenant of all Hazardous Materials shall be performed in a good, safe and
workmanlike manner by consultants qualified and licensed to undertake such work
and in a manner that will not interfere with any other tenant's quiet enjoyment
of the Property or Landlord's use, operation, leasing and sale of the Property.
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord prior to delivery to any governmental agency,
or promptly after receipt from any such agency, copies of all permits,
manifests, closure or remedial action plans, notices, and all other documents
relating to the Handling by Tenant of Hazardous Materials at or about the
Premises or Property. If any lien attaches to the Premises or the Property in
connection with or as a result of the Handling by Tenant of Hazardous Materials,
and Tenant does not cause the same to be released, by payment, bonding or
otherwise, within twenty (20) days after the attachment thereof, Landlord shall
have the right but not the obligation to cause the same to be released and any
sums expended by Landlord (plus Landlord's administrative costs) in connection
therewith shall be payable by Tenant on demand.
(D) Landlord's Rights. Landlord shall have the right, but not the
-----------------
obligation, to enter the Premises at any reasonable time, upon reasonable notice
(and without any notice requirement for any emergency) (i) to confirm Tenant's
compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.2, and (ii) to perform Tenant's
obligations under this Section if Tenant has failed to do so after reasonable
notice to Tenant. Landlord shall also have the right to engage qualified
Hazardous Materials consultants to inspect the Premises and review the Handling
by Tenant of Hazardous Materials, including review of all permits, reports,
plans, and other documents regarding same. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on
demand the costs of Landlord's consultants' fees and all costs incurred by
Landlord in performing Tenant's obligations under this Section. Landlord shall
use reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant's business
caused by Landlord's entry into the Premises, but Landlord shall not be
responsible for any interference caused thereby.
(E) Tenant's Indemnification. Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend,
------------------------
protect and hold harmless Landlord and its partners or members and its or their
partners, members, directors, officers, shareholders, employees and agents from
all Environmental Losses and all other claims, actions, losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses of every kind, including reasonable attorneys',
experts' and consultants' fees and costs, incurred at any time and arising from
or in connection with the Handling by Tenant of Hazardous Materials at or about
the Property or Tenant's failure to comply in full with all Environmental
Requirements with respect to the Premises.
(F) Landlord's Responsibilities. Landlord shall not use any of the
---------------------------
Land or Building for any activities involving the use, generation, handling,
release, threatened release, treatment, storage, discharge, disposal or
transportation of any Hazardous Materials, except in such quantity or
concentration that is customarily used, stored or disposed in the ordinary
course of the business so long as such activity duly complies with applicable
Laws and good business practice. If Landlord violates the foregoing covenant
resulting in an Environmental Claim (as
11.
<PAGE>
hereinafter defined) with respect to the Premises, then Landlord agrees to (a)
notify Tenant immediately of any such Environmental Claim and (b) clean up any
contamination in full compliance with all applicable Laws. The costs of any
Environmental Claim for Hazardous Materials (x) existing on the Land, or
included in the Building, on the Commencement Date of this Lease, (y) caused by
underground flow of Hazardous Materials shall not be included in Operating
Costs. "Environmental - Claim" means any claim, demand, action, cause of action,
suit, damage, punitive damage, fine, penalty, expense, liability, criminal
liability, judgment, or governmental investigation relating to remediation or
compliance with requirements of Laws covering Hazardous Materials. The term
"Environmental Claim" also includes any costs incurred in responding to efforts
to require remediation and any claim based upon any asserted or actual breach or
violation of any requirements of any Laws covering Hazardous Materials.
(G) Third Parties. Except as provided in the immediately preceding
-------------
subsection (f), if any third party (other than Landlord or its representatives,
any other tenant in the Project, or Tenant or its representatives) places
Hazardous Materials on the Property, then Landlord shall have the right to
include the costs of remediation and removal in Operating Costs, subject to the
provisions of Section 3.2 of this Lease.
6. TENANT IMPROVEMENTS & ALTERATIONS.
6.1 Landlord and Tenant shall perform their respective obligations with
respect to design and construction of any improvements to be constructed and
installed in the Premises (the "TENANT IMPROVEMENTS"), as provided in the
Construction Rider. Except for any Tenant Improvements to be constructed by
Tenant as provided in the Construction Rider, Tenant shall not make any
alterations, improvements or changes to the Premises, including installation of
any security system or telephone or data communication wiring, ("ALTERATIONS"),
without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding any other provision contained
herein, Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord's prior consent for
minor, non-structural Alterations that (a) do not affect any of the Building
Systems, (b) are not visible from the exterior of the Premises, and (c) cost
less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000), so long as Tenant gives Landlord
notice of the proposed Alterations at least ten (10) days prior to commencing
the Alterations and complies with all of the following provisions (except that
Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord's approval of any plans or
specifications therefor). Any such Alterations shall be completed by Tenant at
Tenant's sole cost and expense: (i) with due diligence, in a good and
workmanlike manner, using new materials; (ii) in compliance with plans and
specifications approved by Landlord; (iii) in compliance with reasonable
construction rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord from time to time;
(iv) in accordance with all applicable Laws (including all work, whether
structural or non-structural, inside or outside the Premises, required to comply
fully with all applicable Laws and necessitated by Tenant's work); and (v)
subject to all conditions which Landlord may in Landlord's discretion impose.
Such conditions may include requirements for Tenant to: (i) provide payment or
performance bonds or additional insurance (from Tenant or Tenant's contractors,
subcontractors or design professionals); (ii) use contractors or subcontractors
approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and use
contractors designated by Landlord for Alterations affecting the structure of
the Building, the Building Systems and the life safety systems of the Building;
(iii) for all Alterations costing more than One Hundred Thousand and 00/100
Dollars ($ 100,000.00) either (x) use Commercial Interior
12.
<PAGE>
Contractors ("CIC"), which is Landlord's contractor for such Alterations, or (y)
pay to Landlord a construction management fee, at market rates, for supervising
contractors other than CIC and (iv) remove all or part of the Alterations prior
to or upon expiration or termination of the Term, as designated in writing by
Landlord at the time Tenant requests Landlord's consent to the Alteration. If
any work outside the Premises, or any work on or adjustment to any of the
Building Systems, is required in connection with or as a result of Tenant's
work, such work shall be performed at Tenant's expense by contractors designated
by Landlord. Landlord's right to review and approve (or withhold approval of)
Tenant's plans, drawings, specifications, contractor(s) and other aspects of
construction work proposed by Tenant is intended solely to protect Landlord, the
Property and Landlord's interests. No approval or consent by Landlord shall be
deemed or construed to be a representation or warranty by Landlord as to the
adequacy, sufficiency, fitness or suitability thereof or compliance thereof with
applicable Laws or other requirements. Except as otherwise provided in
Landlord's consent, all Alterations shall upon installation become part of the
realty and be the property of Landlord.
6.2 Before making any Alterations, Tenant shall submit to Landlord for
Landlord's prior approval reasonably detailed final plans and specifications
prepared by a licensed architect or engineer, a copy of the construction
contract, including the name of the contractor and all subcontractors proposed
by Tenant to make the Alterations and a copy of the contractor's license.
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any reasonable expenses incurred
by Landlord in connection with any Alterations made by Tenant, including
reasonable fees charged by Landlord's contractors or consultants to review plans
and specifications prepared by Tenant and to update the existing as-built plans
and specifications of the Building to reflect the Alterations. Tenant shall
obtain all applicable permits, authorizations and governmental approvals and
deliver copies of the same to Landlord before commencement of any Alterations.
6.3 Tenant shall keep the Premises and the Project free and clear of all
liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations
incurred by Tenant. If any such lien attaches to the Premises or the Project,
and Tenant does not cause the same to be released by payment, bonding or
otherwise within twenty (20) days after the attachment thereof, Landlord shall
have the right but not the obligation to cause the same to be released, and any
sums expended by Landlord (plus Landlord's reasonable administrative costs) in
connection therewith shall be payable by Tenant on demand with interest thereon
from the date of expenditure by Landlord at the Interest Rate (as defined in
Section 16.2 - Interest). Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) days'
notice prior to the commencement of any Alterations and cooperate with Landlord
in posting and maintaining notices of non-responsibility in connection
therewith.
6.4 Subject to the provisions of Section 5 - Use and Compliance with Laws
and the foregoing provisions of this Section, Tenant may install and maintain
furnishings, equipment, movable partitions, business equipment and other trade
fixtures ("TRADE FIXTURES") in the Premises, provided that the Trade Fixtures do
not become an integral part of the Premises or the Building. Tenant shall
promptly repair any damage to the Premises or the Building caused by any
installation or removal of such Trade Fixtures.

7. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS.
7.1 By taking possession of the Premises Tenant agrees that the Premises
are then in a good and tenantable condition. Tenant shall be responsible to
clean, maintain and repair the Premises, including providing janitorial services
and disposal of trash; and to that end, during the Term, Tenant, at Tenant's
expense but under the direction of Landlord, shall repair and maintain the
Premises, including, without limitation, any elevator, the heating, ventilating
and air conditioning system or systems serving the Premises, the electrical and
plumbing systems serving the Premises, including the lighting and plumbing
fixtures, the restrooms serving the Premises, interior stairways in the

Premises, in a first class condition, and keep the Premises in a clean, safe and
orderly condition. Prior to the Commencement Date Tenant shall provide Landlord
with a copy of a service contract with a licensed commercial Heating,
Ventilating and Air-conditioning maintenance company (which contract and company
shall be subject to Landlord's prior approval, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), to maintain, on an ongoing basis (at least quarterly), the
heating, ventilating and air-conditioning system serving the Premises. Tenant
acknowledges that the sewer piping at the Development is made of ABS plastic.
Accordingly, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent may be
granted or withheld in Landlord's sole discretion, Tenant shall allow only
ordinary domestic sewage to be placed in the sewer system from the Premises.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL TENANT EVER PLACE, OR ALLOW TO BE PLACED, ANY
ESTERS OR KETONES (USUALLY FOUND IN SOLVENTS TO CLEAN UP PETROLEUM PRODUCTS) IN
THE DRAINS OR SEWER SYSTEM, FROM THE PREMISES.

caulk exterior window joints and concrete slabs and (e) paint the exterior of

subject to the terms and conditions contained in Section 3.2 of this Lease;
provided, however, if any maintenance or repair of electrical, water and
sanitary sewer systems outside the Building is caused by Tenant's misuse of such
system, the costs of such maintenance and repair shall not constitute a capital
expenditure for the purposes of Section 3.2 of this Lease. Landlord shall be
under no obligation to inspect the Premises. Tenant shall promptly report in
writing to Landlord any defective condition known to Tenant which Landlord is
required to repair. As a material part of the consideration for this Lease,
Tenant hereby waives any benefits of any applicable existing or future Law,
including the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(l), 1941 and
1942, that allows a tenant to make repairs at its landlord's expense.
7.3 Landlord hereby reserves the right, at any time and from time to time,
without liability to Tenant, and without constituting an eviction, constructive
or otherwise, or entitling Tenant to any abatement of rent or to terminate this
Lease or otherwise releasing Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations under this
Lease:
14.
<PAGE>
(A) To make alterations, additions, repairs, improvements to or in or
to decrease the size of area of, all or any part of the Building, the fixtures
and equipment therein, and the Building Systems (except that Landlord shall not

result of any fire or other casualty, or Condemnation);
(B) To change the Building's name or street address;

imposes mandatory or voluntary controls or guidelines on Landlord or the
Property relating to the use or conservation of energy or utilities or the
reduction of automobile or other emissions or reduction or management of traffic
or parking on the Property (collectively "CONTROLS"), to comply with such
Controls, whether mandatory or voluntary, or make any alterations to the
Property related thereto.
(F) In exercising its rights under this Section 7.3, Landlord agrees
to use reasonable efforts to minimize any interruption to or disruption of
Tenant's use of the Premises.
8. TENANT'S TAXES. "TENANT'S TAXES" shall mean (a) all taxes, assessments,
license fees and other governmental charges or impositions levied or assessed
against or with respect to Tenant's personal property or Trade Fixtures in the
Premises, whether any such imposition is levied directly against Tenant or
levied against Landlord or the Property, (b) all rental, excise, sales or
transaction privilege taxes arising out of this Lease (excluding, however, state
and federal personal or corporate income taxes measured by the income of
Landlord from all sources) imposed by any taxing authority upon Landlord or upon
Landlord's receipt of any rent payable by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this
Lease ("RENTAL TAX"), and (c) any increase in Taxes attributable to inclusion of
a value placed on Tenant's personal property, Trade Fixtures or Alterations.
Tenant shall pay any Rental Tax to Landlord in addition to and at the same time
as Base Rent is payable under this Lease, and shall pay all other Tenant's Taxes
before delinquency (and, at Landlord's request, shall furnish Landlord
satisfactory evidence thereof). If Landlord pays Tenant's Taxes or any portion

(A) If the temperature otherwise maintained in any portion of the
Premises by the HVAC systems of the Building is affected as a result of any
lights, machines or equipment used by Tenant in the Premises, then Landlord
shall have the right to install any machinery or equipment reasonably necessary
to restore the temperature, including modifications to the standard air-
conditioning equipment. The cost of any such equipment and modifications,
including the cost of installation and any additional cost of operation and
maintenance of the same, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

failure or inability to provide any services or utilities to the Premises or
Building for any reason (a "SERVICE FAILURE"), such Service Failure shall not,
regardless of its duration, impose upon Landlord any liability whatsoever,
constitute an eviction of Tenant, constructive or otherwise, entitle Tenant to
an abatement of rent or to terminate this Lease or otherwise release Tenant from
any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease. Tenant hereby waives any benefits
of any applicable existing or future Law, including the provisions of California
Civil Code Section 1932(l), permitting the termination of this Lease due to such
interruption, failure or inability.

Visitors; and (iv) designate separate limits for the Property. Each policy of

provided to Landlord, its partners, property managers and Mortgagees; and (v)

property, commercial property insurance providing coverage, on an "all risk" or
"special form" basis, in an amount equal to at least 90% of the full replacement
cost of the covered property. Tenant may carry such insurance under a blanket
policy, provided that such policy provides coverage equivalent to a separate
policy. During the Term, the proceeds from any such policies of insurance shall
be used for the repair or replacement of the Alterations, Trade Fixtures and
personal property so insured. Landlord shall be provided coverage under such
insurance to the extent of its insurable interest and, if requested by Landlord,
both Landlord and Tenant shall sign all documents reasonably necessary or proper
in connection with the settlement of any claim or loss under such insurance.

Section, including any endorsement effecting the additional insured status, is
in full force and effect and that premiums therefor have been paid.
(D) Updating Coverage. Tenant shall increase the amounts of insurance
-----------------

-------------------------
Tenant, and not less than thirty (30) days prior to expiration of any policy
thereafter, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord a certificate of insurance
reflecting that the insurance required by this Section is in force, accompanied
by an endorsement showing the required additional insureds satisfactory to
Landlord in substance and form. Notwithstanding the requirements of this
paragraph, Tenant shall at Landlord's request provide to Landlord a certified
copy of each insurance policy required to be in force at any time pursuant to
the requirements of this Lease or its Exhibits.
11.2 Landlord's Insurance. During the Term, to the extent such coverages

11.3 Mutual Waiver of Right of Recovery & Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord
----------------------------------------------------------
and Tenant each hereby waive any right of recovery against each other and the
partners, managers, members, shareholders, officers, directors and authorized
representatives of each other for any loss or damage that is covered by any
policy of property insurance maintained by either party (or required by this
Lease to be maintained) with respect to the Premises or the Property or any
operation therein, regardless of cause, including negligence (active or passive)
of the party benefiting from the waiver. If any such policy of insurance
relating to this Lease or to the Premises or the Property does not permit the
foregoing waiver or if the coverage under any such policy would be invalidated
as a result of such waiver, the party maintaining such policy shall obtain from
the insurer under such policy a waiver of all right of recovery by way of
subrogation against either party in connection with any claim, loss or damage
covered by Such policy.

repair from the date of the casualty until substantial completion of Landlord's
repair of the affected portion of the Premises as required under this Lease. In

interference with Tenant's business or property arising from fire or other
casualty or by reason of any repairs to any part of the Property necessitated by
such casualty.

made available for such purpose, at Landlord's sole option) to make the required
repairs;
(C) If the Building is damaged or destroyed to the extent that, in
the reasonable judgment of Landlord, the cost to repair and restore the Building

(D) If the fire or other casualty occurs during the last year of the
Term.
If any of the circumstances described in subparagraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) of

hundred and twenty (120) days after the date of the casualty, specifying whether
Landlord elects to terminate this Lease as provided above and, if not,
Landlord's estimate of the time required to complete Landlord's repair
obligations under this Lease.

---------------------------
Premises are rendered untenantable or inaccessible by damage to all or any part
of the Property from fire or other casualty, and Landlord does not elect to

(A) "AWARD" shall mean all compensation, sums, or anything of value
awarded, paid or received on a total or partial Condemnation.
(B) "CONDEMNATION" shall mean (i) a permanent taking (or a temporary
taking for a period extending beyond the end of the Term) pursuant to the
exercise of the power of condemnation or eminent domain by any public or quasi-
public authority, private corporation or individual having such power
("CONDEMNOR"), whether by legal proceedings or otherwise, or
20.
<PAGE>
(ii) a voluntary sale or transfer by Landlord to any such authority, either
under threat of condemnation or while legal proceedings for condemnation are
pending.
(C) "DATE OF CONDEMNATION" shall mean the earlier of the date that
title to the property taken is vested in the Condemnor or the date the Condemnor
has the right to possession of the property being condemned.
13.2 Effect on Lease.
---------------
(A) If more than one-third (1 /3) of the Premises is taken by
Condemnation, this Lease shall terminate as of the Date of Condemnation. If one-
third (1/3) or less of the Premises is taken by Condemnation, this Lease shall
remain in effect; provided, however, that if the portion of the Premises
remaining after the Condemnation will be unsuitable for Tenant's continued use,
then upon notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies
Tenant of the Condemnation, Tenant may terminate this Lease effective as of the
Date of Condemnation.
(B) If twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Project or of the
parcel(s) of land on which the Building is situated or of the Parking Facility
or of the floor area in the Building is taken by Condemnation, or if as a result
of any Condemnation the Building is no longer reasonably suitable for use as an
office building, whether or not any portion of the Premises is taken, Landlord
may elect to terminate this Lease, effective as of the Date of Condemnation, by
notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the Date of Condemnation.
(C) If all or a portion of the Premises is temporarily taken by a
Condemnor for a period not extending beyond the end of the Term, this Lease
shall remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Restoration. If this Lease is not terminated as provided in Section
-----------
13.2 - Effect on Lease, Landlord, at its expense, shall diligently proceed to
repair and restore the Premises to substantially its former condition (to the
extent permitted by then applicable Laws) and/or repair and restore the Building
to an architecturally complete office building; provided, however, that
Landlord's obligations to so repair and restore shall be limited to the amount
of any Award received by Landlord and not required to be paid to any Mortgagee
(as defined in Section 20.2 below). In no event shall Landlord have any
obligation to repair or replace any improvements in the Premises beyond the
amount of any Award received by Landlord for such repair or to repair or replace
any of Tenant's personal property, Trade Fixtures, or Alterations.
13.4 Abatement and Reduction of Rent. If any portion of the Premises is
-------------------------------
taken in a Condemnation or is rendered permanently untenantable by repairs
necessitated by the Condemnation, and this Lease is not terminated, the Base
Rent and Additional Rent payable under this Lease shall be proportionally
reduced as of the Date of Condemnation based upon the percentage of rentable
square feet in the Premises so taken or rendered permanently untenantable. In
addition, if this Lease remains in effect following a Condemnation and Landlord
proceeds to repair and restore the Premises, the Base Rent and Additional Rent
payable under this Lease shall be abated during the period of such repair or
restoration to the extent such repairs prevent Tenant's use of the Premises.
21.
<PAGE>
13.5 Awards. Any Award made shall be paid to Landlord, and Tenant hereby
------
assigns to Landlord, and waives all interest in or claim to, any such Award,
including any claim for the value of the unexpired Term; provided, however, that
Tenant shall be entitled to receive, or to prosecute a separate claim for, an
Award for a temporary taking of the Premises or a portion thereof by a Condemnor
where this Lease is not terminated (to the extent such Award relates to the
unexpired Term), or an Award or portion thereof separately designated for
relocation and moving expenses or the interruption of or damage to Tenant's
business or as compensation for Tenant's personal property, Trade Fixtures or
Alterations.
13.6 Waiver. Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive the provisions of
------
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 and any other applicable
existing or future Law allowing either party to petition for a termination of
this Lease upon a partial taking of the Premises and/or the Property.
14. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
14.1 Landlord's Consent Required. Tenant shall not assign this Lease or
---------------------------
any interest therein, or sublet or license or permit the use or occupancy of the
Premises or any part thereof by or for the benefit of anyone other than Tenant,
or in any other manner transfer all or any part of Tenant's interest under this
Lease (each and all a "TRANSFER"), without the prior written consent of
Landlord, which consent (subject to the other provisions of this Section 14)
shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Tenant is a business entity, any direct
or indirect transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of the ownership interest of
the entity (whether in a single transaction or in the aggregate through more
than one transaction) shall be deemed a Transfer. A public offering of Tenant's
stock shall not constitute a Transfer under the provisions of this Lease.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not
mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber this Lease or all or any
part of Tenant's interest under this Lease.
14.2 Reasonable Consent.
-------------------
(A) Prior to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall submit in writing to
Landlord (i) the name and legal composition of the proposed assignee, subtenant,
user or other transferee (each a "PROPOSED TRANSFEREE"); (ii) the nature of the
business proposed to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) a current balance
sheet, income statements for the last two years and such other reasonable
financial and other information concerning the Proposed Transferee as Landlord
may request; and (iv) a copy of the proposed assignment, sublease or other
agreement governing the proposed Transfer. Within fifteen (15) Business Days
after Landlord receives all such information it shall notify Tenant whether it
approves or disapproves such Transfer or if it elects to proceed under Section
14.7 - Landlord's Right to Space.
(B) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, among other circumstances
for which Landlord could reasonably withhold consent to a proposed Transfer, it
shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold consent where (i) the Proposed
Transferee does not intend itself to occupy the entire portion of the Premises
assigned or sublet, (ii) Landlord reasonably disapproves of the Proposed
Transferee's business operating ability or history, reputation or
creditworthiness or the nature or character of the business to be conducted by
the Proposed
22.
<PAGE>
Transferee at the Premises, (iii) the Proposed Transferee is a governmental
agency or unit or an existing tenant in the Project, unless, in the case of an
existing tenant, Landlord does not have space available for lease containing the
same or more square feet as is contained in the Premises to accommodate the
existing tenant's expansion or renewal in the Project, (iv) the proposed
Transfer would violate any "exclusive" rights of any tenants in the Project, (v)
Landlord or Landlord's agent has shown space in the Project to the Proposed
Transferee or responded to any inquiries from the Proposed Transferee or the
Proposed Transferee's agent concerning availability of space in the Project, at
any time within the preceding six months, or (vi) Landlord otherwise determines
that the proposed Transfer would have the effect of materially decreasing the
financial value of the Project or increasing the expenses associated with
operating, maintaining and repairing the Project. In no event may Tenant
publicly advertise all or any portion of the Premises for assignment or sublease
at a rental less than that then sought by Landlord for a direct lease (non-
sublease) of comparable space in the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant may employ a broker who advertises on a commercial multiple listing
service in order to offer the Premises for assignment or sublease.
14.3 Excess Consideration. If Landlord consents to the Transfer, Landlord
--------------------
shall be entitled to receive as Additional Rent hereunder, fifty percent (50%)
of all "Sublease Profits" (as defined below). "Sublease Profits" shall mean any
consideration paid by the Transferee for the assignment or sublease and, in the
case of a sublease, the excess of the rent and other consideration payable by
the subtenant over the amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder
applicable to the subleased space, less any and all direct, out-of-pocket
expenses and cash concessions, including costs for necessary Alterations,
attorneys' fees (not to exceed One Thousand and 00/ 100 Dollars [$ 1,000.00] in
attorneys' fees) and brokerage commission, paid by Tenant to procure the
assignee or subtenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, within
twenty (20) days after receipt by Tenant, any such excess consideration paid by
any transferee (the "TRANSFEREE") for the Transfer provided any capital
expenditures and brokerage commissions in connection with any sublease shall be
amortized over the term of the sublease.
14.4 No Release Of Tenant. No consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall
--------------------
relieve Tenant of any obligation to be performed by Tenant under this Lease,
whether occurring before or after such consent, assignment, subletting or other
Transfer. Each Transferee shall be jointly and severally liable with Tenant
(and Tenant shall be jointly and severally liable with each Transferee) for the
payment of rent (or, in the case of a sublease, rent in the amount set forth in
the sublease) and for the performance of all other terms and provisions of this
Lease. The consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall not relieve Tenant or any
such Transferee from the obligation to obtain Landlord's express prior written
consent to any subsequent Transfer by Tenant or any Transferee. The acceptance
of rent by Landlord from any other person (whether or not such person is an
occupant of the Premises) shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any
provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any Transfer.
14.5 Expenses and Attorneys' Fees. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand
----------------------------
all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees not to exceed One
Thousand and 00/ 100 Dollars [$ 1,000.00] for each request for Landlord's
consent to a proposed Transfer) incurred by Landlord in connection with
reviewing or consenting to any proposed Transfer (including any
23.
<PAGE>
request for consent to, or any waiver of Landlord's rights in connection with,
any security interest in any of Tenant's property at the Premises).
14.6 Effectiveness of Transfer. Prior to the date on which any permitted
-------------------------
Transfer (whether or not requiring Landlord's consent) becomes effective, Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord a counterpart of the fully executed Transfer document
and Landlord's standard form of Consent to Assignment or Consent to Sublease
executed by Tenant and the Transferee in which each of Tenant and the Transferee
confirms its obligations pursuant to this Lease. Failure or refusal of a
Transferee to execute any such instrument shall not release or discharge the
Transferee from liability as provided herein. The voluntary, involuntary or
other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation by Landlord
and Tenant, shall not work a merger, and any such surrender or cancellation
shall, at the option of Landlord, either terminate all or any existing subleases
or operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subleases.
14.7 Landlord's Right to Space. Notwithstanding any of the above
-------------------------
provisions of this Section to the contrary, if Tenant notifies Landlord that it
desires to enter into a Transfer, Landlord, in lieu of consenting to such
Transfer, may elect (x) in the case of an assignment or a sublease of the entire
Premises, to terminate this Lease, or (y) in the case of a sublease of less than
the entire Premises, to terminate this Lease as it relates to the space proposed
to be subleased by Tenant. In such event, this Lease will terminate (or the
space proposed to be subleased will be removed from the Premises subject to this
Lease and the Base Rent and Tenant's Share under this Lease shall be
proportionately reduced) on the date the Transfer was proposed to be effective,
and Landlord may lease such space to any party, including the prospective
Transferee identified by Tenant.
14.8 Assignment of Sublease Rents. Tenant hereby absolutely and
----------------------------
irrevocably assigns to Landlord any and all rights to receive rent and other
consideration from any sublease and agrees that Landlord, as assignee or as
attorney-in-fact for Tenant solely for purposes of collecting rent and other
consideration from any sublessee, or a receiver for Tenant appointed on
Landlord's application may (but shall not be obligated to) collect such rents
and other consideration and apply the same toward Tenant's obligations to
Landlord under this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord grants to Tenant at
all times prior to occurrence of any breach or default by Tenant a revocable
license to collect such rents (which license shall automatically and without
notice be and be deemed to have been revoked and terminated immediately upon any
Event of Default).
14.9 Transfer to Affiliate. Notwithstanding any provision contained in the
---------------------
Section 14 to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right, without the consent of
Landlord, upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord, to transfer
Tenant's interest in this Lease to an "Affiliate" of Tenant, and the provisions
of Sections 14.2, 14.3 and 14.7 shall not apply with respect to the transfer to
the Affiliate, but the transfer to the Affiliate shall be subject to all other
terms and conditions of this Lease, including the provisions of this Section
14.9. Tenant shall remain liable under this Lease after any such transfer. For
the purposes of this Article 14, the term "Affiliate" of Tenant shall mean and
refer to any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with
Tenant or Tenant's parent, as the case may be, or any corporation or other
entity resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant, or to any person or
entity which acquires at least ninety percent (90%) of all the assets of Tenant
as a going concern. "Control" as used herein
24.
<PAGE>
shall mean the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause
the direction of the management and policies of such controlled entity; and the
ownership, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its
affairs, of at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting interest in any entity.
Notwithstanding Tenant's right to Transfer to an Affiliate pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 14.9, Tenant may not, through use of its rights under
this Article 14 in two or more transactions (whether separate transactions or
steps or phases of a single transaction), at one time or over time, whether by
first assigning this Lease to a subsidiary and then merging the subsidiary into
another entity or selling the stock of the subsidiary or by other means, assign
or sublease the Premises, or transfer control of Tenant, to any person or entity
which is not a subsidiary, affiliate or controlling corporation of the original
Tenant, as then constituted, existing prior to the commencement of such
transactions, without first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent pursuant
to the provisions of Section 14.2.
15. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.
15.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall
-----------------
constitute an "EVENT OF DEFAULT" by Tenant:
(A) Tenant fails to make any payment of rent when due, or any amount
required to replenish the security deposit as provided in Section 4 above, if
payment in full is not received by Landlord within three (3) days after written
notice that it is due.
(B) Tenant abandons the Premises, together with Tenant's failure to
pay Rent when due.
(C) Tenant fails timely to deliver any subordination document,
estoppel certificate or financial statement requested by Landlord within the
applicable time period specified in Sections 20 - Encumbrances - and 21 -
Estoppel Certificates and Financial Statements - below.
(D) Tenant violates the restrictions on Transfer set forth in Section
14 -Assignment and Subletting.
(E) Tenant ceases doing business as a going concern; makes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors; is adjudicated an insolvent, files a
petition (or files an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition)
seeking relief under any under any state or federal bankruptcy or other statute,
law or regulation affecting creditors' rights; all or substantially all of
Tenant's assets are subject to judicial seizure or attachment and are not
released within 60 days, or Tenant consents to or acquiesces in the appointment
of a trustee, receiver or liquidator for Tenant or for all or any substantial
part of Tenant's assets.
(F) Tenant fails, within ninety (90) days after the commencement of
any proceedings against Tenant seeking relief under any state or federal
bankruptcy or other statute, law or regulation affecting creditors' rights, to
have such proceedings dismissed, or Tenant fails, within ninety (90) days after
an appointment, without Tenant's consent or acquiescence, of any trustee,
receiver or liquidator for Tenant or for all or any substantial part of Tenant's
assets, to have such appointment vacated.
25.
<PAGE>
(G) Tenant fails to perform or comply with any provision of this
Lease other than those described in (a) through (f) above, and does not fully
cure such failure within thirty (30) days after notice to Tenant or, if such
failure cannot be cured within such thirty (30)-day period, Tenant fails within
such thirty (30)-day period to commence, and thereafter diligently proceed with,
all actions necessary to cure such failure as soon as reasonably possible but in
all events within one hundred twenty (120) days of such notice; provided,
however, that if Landlord in Landlord's reasonable judgment determines that such
failure will not be cured by Tenant within such one hundred twenty (120) days,
then such failure shall constitute an Event of Default immediately upon such
notice to Tenant.
15.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord shall
--------
have the following remedies, which shall not be exclusive but shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedies now or hereafter
allowed by law:
(A) Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the
Premises at any time by written notice to Tenant. Tenant expressly acknowledges
that in the absence of such written notice from Landlord, no other act of
Landlord, including re-entry into the Premises, efforts to relet the Premises,
reletting of the Premises for Tenant's account, storage of Tenant's personal
property and Trade Fixtures, acceptance of keys to the Premises from Tenant or
exercise of any other rights and remedies under this Section, shall constitute
an acceptance of Tenant's surrender of the Premises or constitute a termination
of this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession of the Premises. Upon such
termination in writing of Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, as
herein provided, this Lease shall terminate and Landlord shall be entitled to
recover damages from Tenant as provided in California Civil Code Section 1951.2
and any other applicable existing or future Law providing for recovery of
damages for such breach, including the worth at the time of award of the amount
by which the rent which would be payable by Tenant hereunder for the remainder
of the Term after the date of the award of damages, including Additional Rent as
reasonably estimated by Landlord, exceeds the amount of such rental loss as
Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, discounted at the discount
rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco for member banks at
the time of the award plus one percent (1%).
(B) Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code
Section 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant's breach
and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to
sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations).
(C) Landlord may cure the Event of Default at Tenant's expense. If
Landlord pays any sum or incurs any expense in curing the Event of Default,
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for the amount of such payment or
expense with interest at the Interest Rate from the date the sum is paid or the
expense is incurred until Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant.
(D) Landlord may remove all Tenant's property from the Premises, and
such property may be stored by Landlord in a public warehouse or elsewhere at
the sole cost and for the account of Tenant. If Landlord does not elect to store
any or all of Tenant's property left in the Premises, Landlord may consider such
property to be abandoned by Tenant, and Landlord
26.
<PAGE>
may thereupon dispose of such property in any manner deemed appropriate by
Landlord. Any proceeds realized by Landlord on the disposal of any such property
shall be applied first to offset all expenses of storage and sale, then credited
against Tenant's outstanding obligations to Landlord under this Lease, and any
balance remaining after satisfaction of all obligations of Tenant under this
Lease shall be delivered to Tenant.
16. LATE CHARGE AND INTEREST.
16.1 Late Charge. If any payment of rent is not received by Landlord
-----------
within five (5) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant that the
payment is past due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand as a late charge an
additional amount equal to four percent (4%) of the overdue payment; provided,
however, if Landlord has given Tenant written notice two (2) or more times in
any consecutive twelve (12) month period that a payment of rent is past due,
then Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand commencing with the third (3rd) past
due payment in any twelve (12) month period, and continuing with each past due
payment thereafter in such twelve (12) month period, as a late charge an
additional amount equal to four percent (4%) of the overdue payment without any
requirement of additional notice that such payment is past due. A late charge
shall not be imposed more than once on any particular installment not paid when
due, but imposition of a late charge on any payment not made when due does not
eliminate or supersede late charges imposed on other (prior) payments not made
when due or preclude imposition of a late charge on other installments or
payments not made when due.
16.2 Interest. In addition to the late charges referred to above, which
--------
are intended to defray Landlord's costs resulting from late payments, any
payment from Tenant to Landlord not paid when due shall at Landlord's option
bear interest from the date due until paid to Landlord by Tenant at the rate of
fifteen percent (15%) per annum or the maximum lawful rate that Landlord may
charge to Tenant under applicable laws, whichever is less (the "INTEREST RATE").
Acceptance of any late charge and/or interest shall not constitute a waiver of
Tenant's default with respect to the overdue sum or prevent Landlord from
exercising any of its other rights and remedies under this Lease.
17. WAIVER. No provisions of this Lease shall be deemed waived by either party
unless such waiver is in a writing signed by the waiving party. The waiver by
either party of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall not be deemed a
waiver of such provision or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other
provision of this Lease. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or
remedy of either party upon any default by the other party shall impair such
right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Landlord's acceptance of any
payments of rent due under this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of any
default by Tenant under this Lease (including Tenant's recurrent failure to
timely pay rent) other than Tenant's nonpayment of the accepted sums, and no
endorsement or statement on any check or on any letter accompanying any check or
payment shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction. The consent to or approval
by either party of any act by the other party requiring the first party's
consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary the
consenting or approving party's consent to or approval of any subsequent act by
the other party.
27.
<PAGE>
18. ENTRY, INSPECTION AND CLOSURE. Upon reasonable oral or written notice to
Tenant (and without notice in emergencies), Landlord and its authorized
representatives may enter the Premises at all reasonable times to: (a) determine
whether the Premises are in good condition, (b) determine whether Tenant is
complying with its obligations under this Lease, (c) perform any maintenance or
repair of the Premises or the Building that Landlord has the right or obligation
to perform, (d) install or repair improvements for other tenants where access to
the Premises is required for such installation or repair, (e) serve, post or
keep posted any notices required or allowed under the provisions of this Lease,
(f) show the Premises to prospective brokers, agents, buyers, transferees, or
Mortgagees, or (g) do any other act or thing necessary for the safety or
preservation of the Premises or the Building. In addition, Landlord shall show
the Premises to prospective tenants upon prior reasonable oral or notice to
Tenant during the last twelve (12) months of the Term. When reasonably
necessary Landlord may temporarily close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators
or other facilities in the Building without liability to Tenant by reason of
such closure. Landlord shall conduct its activities under this Section in a
manner that will minimize inconvenience to Tenant without incurring additional
expense to Landlord. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to an abatement of
rent on account of any entry by Landlord, and Landlord shall not be liable in
any manner for any inconvenience, loss of business or other damage to Tenant or
other persons arising out of Landlord's entry on the Premises in accordance with
this Section. No action by Landlord pursuant to this paragraph shall constitute
an eviction of Tenant, constructive or otherwise, entitle Tenant to an abatement
of rent or to terminate this Lease or otherwise release Tenant from any of
Tenant's obligations under this Lease.
19. SURRENDER AND HOLDING OVER.
19.1 Surrender. Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant
---------
shall surrender the Premises and all Tenant Improvements and Alterations to
Landlord broom-clean and in good condition, except for reasonable wear and tear,
damage from casualty or condemnation and any changes resulting from approved
Alterations; provided, however, that on or before the expiration or termination
of this Lease Tenant shall remove all telephone and other cabling installed in
the Building by Tenant and remove from the Premises all Tenant's personal
property and any Trade Fixtures and all Alterations that Landlord has elected to
require Tenant to remove as provided in Section 6.1 - Tenant Improvements &
Alterations, and repair any damage caused by such removal; provided, however,
upon expiration or termination of this Lease Tenant shall not be obligated to
remove any Hazardous Material from the Property unless Handled by Tenant at the
Property. If such removal is not completed on or before the expiration or
termination of the Term, Landlord shall have the right (but no obligation) to
remove the same, and Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand for all costs of
removal and storage thereof and for the rental value of the Premises for the
period from the end of the Term through the end of the time reasonably required
for such removal. Landlord shall also have the right to retain or dispose of
all or any portion of such property if Tenant does not pay all such costs and
retrieve the property within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord (in which
event title to all such property described in Landlord's notice shall be
transferred to and vest in Landlord). Tenant waives all Claims against Landlord
for any damage or loss to Tenant resulting from Landlord's removal, storage,
retention, or disposition of any such property. Upon expiration or termination
of this Lease or of Tenant's possession, whichever is earliest, Tenant shall
surrender all keys to the Premises or any other part of the Building and shall
deliver to Landlord all keys for or make known to Landlord the combination of
locks on all safes, cabinets and vaults that may be located
28.
<PAGE>
in the Premises. Tenant's obligations under this Section shall survive the
expiration or termination of this Lease.
19.2 Holding Over. If Tenant (directly or through any Transferee or other
------------
successor-in-interest of Tenant) remains in possession of the Premises after the
expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant's continued possession shall be
on the basis of a tenancy at the sufferance of Landlord. No act or omission by
Landlord, other than its specific written consent, shall constitute permission
for Tenant to continue in possession of the Premises, and if such consent is
given or declared to have been given by a court judgment, Landlord may terminate
Tenant's holdover tenancy at any time upon seven (7) days written notice. In
such event, Tenant shall continue to comply with or perform all the terms and
obligations of Tenant under this Lease, except that the monthly Base Rent during
Tenant's holding over shall be twice the Base Rent payable in the last full
month prior to the termination hereof. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after
such termination shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease; and
nothing contained in this provision shall be deemed to waive Landlord's right of
re-entry or any other right hereunder or at law. Tenant shall indemnify, defend
and hold Landlord harmless from and against all Claims arising or resulting
directly or indirectly from Tenant's failure to timely surrender the Premises,
including (i) any rent payable by or any loss, cost, or damages claimed by any
prospective tenant of the Premises, and (ii) Landlord's damages as a result of
such prospective tenant rescinding or refusing to enter into the prospective
lease of the Premises by reason of such failure to timely surrender the
Premises.
20. ENCUMBRANCES.
20.1 Subordination. This Lease is expressly made subject and subordinate
-------------
to any mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease, underlying lease or like
encumbrance affecting any part of the Property or any interest of Landlord
therein which is now existing or hereafter executed or recorded ("ENCUMBRANCE");
provided, however, that such subordination shall only be effective, as to future
Encumbrances, if the holder of the Encumbrance agrees in writing that this Lease
shall survive the termination of the Encumbrance by lapse of time, foreclosure
or otherwise so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any
applicable notice and cure period. Provided the conditions of the preceding
sentence are satisfied, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, within ten
(10) Business Days after written request therefor by Landlord and in a form
reasonably requested by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing the
subordination of this Lease with respect to any such Encumbrance and the
nondisturbance agreement of the holder of any such Encumbrance. If the interest
of Landlord-in the Property is transferred pursuant to or in lieu of proceedings
for enforcement of any Encumbrance, Tenant shall immediately and automatically
attorn to the new owner, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect
as a direct lease between the transferee and Tenant on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Lease. Landlord agrees to use reasonable good faith efforts
to obtain, at Tenant's cost and expense, within 60 days after execution of this
Lease, a Subordination, Attornment and Non-Disturbance Agreement (the "SNDA")
from the holder of any Encumbrance existing at the date of this Lease pursuant
to the provisions contained above; provided, however, Landlord's failure to
obtain an SNDA shall not affect the validity of this Lease.
29.
<PAGE>
20.2 Mortgagee Protection. Tenant agrees to give any holder of any
--------------------
Encumbrance covering any part of the Property ("MORTGAGEE"), by registered mail,
a copy of any notice of default served upon Landlord, provided that prior to
such notice Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of notice of assignment
of rents and leases, or otherwise) of the address of such Mortgagee. If
Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days from the
effective date of such notice of default, then the Mortgagee shall have an
additional thirty (30) days within which to cure such default or if such default
cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary
to cure such default (including the time necessary to foreclose or otherwise
terminate its Encumbrance, if necessary to effect such cure), and this Lease
shall not be terminated so long as such remedies are being diligently pursued.
21. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
21.1 Estoppel Certificates. Within ten (10) Business Days after written
---------------------
request therefor, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, in a form
provided by or satisfactory to Landlord, a certificate stating that this Lease
is in full force and effect, describing any amendments or modifications hereto,
acknowledging that this Lease is subordinate or prior, as the case may be, to
any Encumbrance and stating any other information Landlord may reasonably
request, including the Term, the monthly Base Rent, the date to which Rent has
been paid, the amount of any security deposit or prepaid rent, whether either
party hereto is in default under the terms of the Lease, and whether Landlord
has completed its construction obligations hereunder (if any). If Tenant fails
timely to execute and deliver such certificate as provided above, then Landlord
and the addressee of such certificate shall be entitled to rely upon the
information contained in the certificate submitted to Tenant as true, correct
and complete, and Tenant shall be estopped from later denying, contradicting or
taking any position inconsistent with the information contained in such
certificate. Any person or entity purchasing, acquiring an interest in or
extending financing with respect to the Property shall be entitled to rely upon
any such certificate. If Tenant fails to deliver such certificate within ten
(10) Business Days after Landlord's second written request therefor, Tenant
shall be liable to Landlord for any damages incurred by Landlord including any
profits or other benefits from any financing of the Property or any interest
therein which are lost or made unavailable as a result, directly or indirectly,
of Tenant's failure or refusal to timely execute or deliver such estoppel
certificate.
21.2 Financial Statements. Within ten (10) Business Days after written
--------------------
request therefor, but not more than once a year, Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord a copy of the financial statements (including at least a year end
balance sheet and a statement of profit and loss) of Tenant (and of each
guarantor of Tenant's obligations under this Lease) for each of the two most
recently completed years, prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles (and, if such is Tenant's normal practice, audited by an
independent certified public accountant), all then available subsequent interim
statements, and such other financial information as may reasonably be requested
by Landlord or required by any Mortgagee. Landlord shall not disclose details of
such financial statements except (x) pursuant to court proceedings, and (y) to
Landlord's (a) directors, (b) shareholders, (c) officers, (d) those employees of
Landlord and of Landlord's agents who have a need to know, (e) accountants, (f)
auditors, (g) lenders and/or Mortgagee, (h) purchasers, (i) potential lenders
and/or Mortgagees and purchasers, and (j) attorneys. Landlord shall use all
reasonable efforts to prevent such persons or employees of such entities from
disclosing details of Tenant's financial statements.

any way related to this Lease, the non-prevailing party shall pay to the
prevailing party all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs and expenses of any
type incurred by the prevailing party in connection with any action or
proceeding (including any appeal and the enforcement of any judgment or award),
whether or not the dispute is litigated or prosecuted to final judgment. The
"prevailing party" shall be determined based upon an assessment of which party's
major arguments or positions taken in the action or proceeding could fairly be
said to have prevailed (whether by compromise, settlement, abandonment by the
other party of its claim or defense, final decision, after any appeals, or
otherwise) over the other party's major arguments or positions on major disputed
issues.

leaving the Building, requiring identification for access to the Building,
evacuation of the Building for cause, suspected cause, or for drill purposes,

Tenant or its Representatives or Visitors for the implementation or exercise of,
or the failure to implement or exercise, any security measures for the Premises
or the Project, or for any resulting disturbance of Tenant's use or enjoyment of
the Premises.
26. FORCE MAJEURE. If either Landlord or Tenant is delayed, interrupted or
prevented from performing any of its obligations under this Lease (other than,
with respect to Tenant the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other
charge payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease), including Landlord's
obligations under the Construction Rider and such delay, interruption or
prevention is due to fire, act of God, governmental act or failure to act, labor
dispute, unavailability of materials or any cause outside the reasonable control
of Landlord or
31.
<PAGE>
Tenant, then the time for performance of the affected obligations of Landlord or
Tenant, as the case may be, shall be extended for a period equivalent to the
period of such delay, interruption or prevention. The inability to pay money
shall in no event constitute force majeure.

this Lease, as well as any reasonable rules and regulations hereafter adopted by

(collectively, the "BUILDING RULES"). Landlord shall not be responsible to
Tenant or to any other person for any violation of, or failure to observe, the
Building Rules by any other tenant or other person.
28. LANDLORD'S LIABILITY. The term "Landlord," as used in this Lease, shall
mean only the owner or owners of the Building at the time in question. In the
event of any conveyance of title to the Building, then from and after the date
of such conveyance, upon such transferee's written recognition of this Lease,
the transferor Landlord shall be relieved of all liability with respect to
Landlord's obligations to be performed under this Lease after the date of such
conveyance. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Lease, the
liability of Landlord for its obligations under this Lease is limited solely to
Landlord's interest in the Building as the same may from time to time be
encumbered, and no personal liability shall at any time be asserted or
enforceable against any other assets of Landlord or against Landlord's partners
or members or its or their respective partners, shareholders, members,
directors, officers or managers on account of any of Landlord's obligations or
actions under this Lease.
29. CONSENTS AND APPROVALS.
29.1 Determination in Good Faith. Wherever the consent, approval, judgment
---------------------------
or determination of Landlord is required or permitted under this Lease, Landlord
may exercise its good faith business judgment in granting or withholding such
consent or approval or in making such judgment or determination without
reference to any extrinsic standard of reasonableness, unless the specific
provision contained in this Lease providing for such consent, approval, judgment
or determination specifies that Landlord's consent or approval is not to be
unreasonably withheld, or that such judgment or determination is to be
reasonable, or otherwise specifies the standards under which Landlord may
withhold its consent. If it is determined that Landlord failed to give its
consent where it was required to do so under this Lease, Tenant shall be
entitled to injunctive relief but shall not to be entitled to monetary damages
or to terminate this Lease for such failure.
29.2 No Liability Imposed on Landlord. The review and/or approval by
--------------------------------
Landlord of any item or matter to be reviewed or approved by Landlord under the
terms of this Lease or any Exhibits or Addenda hereto shall not impose upon
Landlord any liability for the accuracy or sufficiency of any such item or
matter or the quality or suitability of such item for its intended use. Any such
review or approval is for the sole purpose of protecting Landlord's interest in
the Property, and no third parties, including Tenant or the Representatives and
Visitors of Tenant or any person or entity claiming by, through or under Tenant,
shall have any rights as a consequence thereof.

finder who might be entitled to a fee or commission for this Lease other than

31. RELOCATION OF PREMISES. [Intentionally Deleted).
32. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Lease, including the Exhibits and any Addenda
attached hereto, and the documents referred to herein, if any, constitute the
entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the leasing of
space by Tenant in the Building, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous
agreements, understandings, proposals and other representations by or between
Landlord and Tenant, whether written or oral, all of which are merged herein.
Neither Landlord nor Landlord's agents have made any representations or
warranties with respect to the Premises, the Building, the Project or this Lease
except as expressly set forth herein, and no rights, easements or licenses shall
be acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise unless expressly set forth
herein. The submission of this Lease for examination does not constitute an
option for the Premises and this Lease shall become effective as a binding
agreement only upon execution and delivery thereof by Landlord to Tenant.
33. MISCELLANEOUS. This Lease may not be amended or modified except by a
writing signed by Landlord and Tenant. Subject to Section 14 - Assignment and
Subletting and Section 28 - Landlord's Liability, this Lease shall be binding on
and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors,
assigns and legal representatives. The determination that any provisions hereof
may be void, invalid, illegal or unenforceable shall not impair any other
provisions hereof and all such other provisions of this Lease shall remain in
full force and effect. The unenforceability, invalidity or illegality of any
provision of this Lease under particular circumstances shall not render
unenforceable, invalid or illegal other provisions of this Lease, or the same
provisions under other circumstances. This Lease shall be construed and
interpreted in accordance with the laws (excluding conflict of laws principles)
of the State in which the Building is located. The provisions of this Lease
shall be construed in accordance with the fair meaning of the language used and
shall not be strictly construed against either party, even if such party drafted
the provision in question. When required by the context of this Lease, the
singular includes the plural. Wherever the term "including" is used in this
Lease, it shall be interpreted as meaning "including, but not limited to" the
matter or matters thereafter enumerated. The captions contained in this Lease
are for purposes of convenience only and are not to be used to interpret or
construe this Lease. If more than one person or entity is identified as Tenant
hereunder, the obligations of each and all of them under this Lease shall be
joint and several. Time is of the essence with respect to this Lease, except as
to the conditions relating to the
33.
<PAGE>
delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant. Neither Landlord nor Tenant
shall record this Lease.
34. AUTHORITY. If Tenant is a corporation, partnership, limited liability
company or other form of business entity, each of the persons executing this
Lease on behalf of Tenant warrants and represents that Tenant is a duly
organized and validly existing entity, that Tenant has full right and authority
to enter into this Lease and that the persons signing on behalf of Tenant are
authorized to do so and have the power to bind Tenant to this Lease. Tenant
shall provide Landlord upon request with evidence reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord confirming the foregoing representations.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have entered into this Lease as of
the date first above written.

CONSTRUCTION RIDER
------------------
1. Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall with reasonable diligence through a
-------------------
contractor selected by Tenant construct and install in the Premises the
improvements and fixtures provided for in this Construction Rider ("TENANT
IMPROVEMENTS"). Landlord shall have the right to review and approve Tenant's
contractor based on its qualifications, including quality of work,
creditworthiness, and experience. Tenant agrees to allow Landlord's contractor,
Commercial Interior Contractors ("CIC"), to bid on such work. Tenant recognizes
and agrees that CIC is an affiliate of Landlord. Upon request by Landlord,
Tenant shall designate in writing an individual authorized to act as Tenant's
Representative with respect to all approvals, directions- and authorizations
pursuant to this Construction Rider.
1.1 Plans. The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed substantially
-----
as shown on the conceptual space plan for the Premises prepared by a space
planner mutually agreeable to Landlord and Tenant, which space planner will be
retained by Tenant as the space planner for the Premises ("SPACE PLANNER"), to
prepare a space plan ("SPACE PLAN") reasonably acceptable to Landlord and
Tenant.
As soon as may be reasonably practicable after requested by Tenant,
the Space Planner will prepare and deliver to Landlord and Tenant detailed plans
and specifications sufficient to permit the construction of the Tenant
Improvements by Tenant's contractor ("CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS"). Tenant's
contractor will provide Landlord and Tenant with a cost estimate for the work
shown in the Construction Documents. Landlord and Tenant shall respond to the
Construction Documents and cost estimate within three (3) Business Days after
receipt thereof, specifying any changes or modifications Landlord and Tenant
desire in the Construction Documents. The Space Planner will then revise the
Construction Documents and resubmit them to Landlord and Tenant for their
approval and Tenant's contractor will provide Landlord and Tenant with a revised
cost estimate. Landlord and Tenant shall approve or disapprove the same within
three (3) Business Days after receipt. The revised Construction Documents and
cost estimate, as approved by Tenant and Landlord, are hereinafter referred to
as the "FINAL CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS" and "FINAL COST ESTIMATE," respectively.
Additional interior decorating services and advice on the furnishing and
decoration of the Premises, such as the selection of fixtures, furnishings or
design of mill work, shall be provided by Tenant at its expense, but shall be
subject to the reasonable approval of Landlord.
Exhibit B, Page 1.
<PAGE>
1.2 Construction. Upon approval by Landlord and Tenant of the Final
------------
Construction Documents and the Final Cost Estimate, Tenant shall proceed with
reasonable diligence to cause the Tenant Improvements to be Substantially
Completed by Tenant's contractor.
The Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be "SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETED"
when they have been completed in accordance with the Final Construction
Documents except for finishing details, minor omissions, decorations and
mechanical adjustments of the type normally found on an architectural "punch
list". (The definition of Substantially Completed shall also define the terms
"SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION" and "SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE.")
Following Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord and
Tenant shall inspect the Premises and jointly prepare a "punch list" of agreed
items of construction remaining to be completed. Tenant shall cause Tenant's
contractor to complete the items set forth in the punch list as soon as
reasonably possible using commercially reasonable efforts.
1.3 Cost of Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall contribute up to
---------------------------
Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) (the "ALLOWANCE"), toward the
cost of the design (including preparation of space plans and Construction
Documents), construction and installation of the Tenant Improvements. The
balance, if any, of the cost of the Tenant Improvements ("ADDITIONAL COST")
shall be paid by Tenant. As construction of Tenant Improvements progresses,
within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives from Tenant each request for
payment, which request shall be accompanied by "Supporting Information,"
Landlord shall disburse portions of the Allowance to Tenant based upon an
invoice from Tenant's contractor for work completed in construction of Tenant
Improvements; provided, however, Landlord shall not be obligated to disburse
portions of the Allowance more often than once per month. The "Supporting
Information" shall include (a) an invoice from Tenant's contractor based upon
work then completed, less (i) previous disbursements and (ii) retainage of ten
percent (10%), (b) a cost breakdown of the work completed by trade or category,
with the amount of previous disbursements by trade or category, and (c)
conditional and unconditional lien releases from Tenant's contractor and the
applicable subcontractors and suppliers. In no event shall Landlord be obligated
to contribute more than the Allowance toward all the costs of the Tenant
Improvements and any permits and inspections required in connection with the
construction thereof.
1.4. Changes. If Tenant requests any change, addition or alteration in
-------
or to any Final Construction Documents ("CHANGES") Tenant shall cause the Space
Planner to prepare additional Plans implementing such Change. As soon as
practicable after the completion of such additional Construction Documents,
Tenant's contractor shall notify Landlord and Tenant of the estimated cost of
the Changes. Within three (3) Business Days after receipt of such cost estimate,
Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant approves the Change. If
Tenant approves the Change, Tenant's contractor shall proceed with the Change
and Tenant shall be liable for any Additional Cost resulting from the Change. If
Tenant fails to approve the Change within such three (3) Business Day period,
construction of the Tenant Improvements shall proceed as provided in accordance
with the original Construction Documents.
Exhibit B, Page 2.
<PAGE>
1.5 Delays. Tenant shall be responsible for, and shall pay to
------
Landlord, any and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with
any delay in the commencement or completion of any Tenant Improvements and any
increase in the cost of Tenant Improvements caused by (i) Tenant's failure to
submit information to the Space Planner or approve any Space Plan, Construction
Documents or cost estimates within the time periods required herein, (ii) any
delays in obtaining any items or materials constituting part of the Tenant
Improvements requested by Tenant, (iii) any Changes, or (iv) any other delay
requested or caused by Tenant (collectively, "TENANT DELAYS").
2. Delivery of Premises. [Intentionally Deleted].
--------------------
3. Access to Premises. Landlord shall allow Tenant and Tenant's
------------------
Representatives to enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date to permit
Tenant to make the Premises ready for its use and occupancy; provided, however,
that prior to such entry of the Premises, Tenant shall provide evidence
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that Tenant's insurance, as described in
Section 11.1 - Tenant's Insurance of the Lease, shall be in effect as of the
time of such entry.
Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable in any way for any
injury, loss or damage which may occur to any of Tenant's property placed upon
or installed in the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, the same being at
Tenant's sole risk, and Tenant shall be liable for all injury, loss or damage to
persons or property arising as a result of such entry into the Premises by
Tenant or its Representatives.
4. Ownership of Tenant Improvements. All Tenant Improvements, whether
--------------------------------
installed by Landlord or Tenant, shall become a part of the Premises, shall be
the property of Landlord and, subject to the provisions of the Lease, shall be
surrendered by Tenant with the Premises, without any compensation to Tenant, at
the expiration or termination of the Lease in accordance with the provisions of
the Lease. Upon expiration or termination of this Lease Tenant shall in the
manufacturing portion of the Premises, in the areas shown on Exhibit A-3
attached to this Lease, (a) restore any carpet and (b) remove any interior walls
installed by Tenant to be office space.
