the Building (approximately 1,350 square feet), including but not limited to the Trash Room, Main Electrical Room and common access walkway, as determined by Landlord's architect. Tenant's obligation to pay Base Rent for the Premises shall commence on the Term Commencement Date. Upon completion of Landlord's Work, Landlord's architect shall certify to Landlord the rentable square feet of the Premises, measured from the outside of exterior walls of the building, but including areas below the "dripline" in the exterior entrances, to the midpoint of any interior demising walls plus Tenant's proportionate share of Building Common areas which include utility rooms (trash and electrical rooms), common access walkway etc. Landlord's architect's certification of rentable square feet for the Premises shall be binding upon both Landlord and Tenant for all purposes under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant currently estimate that the rentable square feet of the Premises and the Base Rent for the Premises will be as stated in the Basic Lease Information. Upon receipt of the architect's certification of rentable square feet, the actual Base Rent shall be determined and, if requested by Landlord or Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment of this Lease which states the actual Base Rent as so determined. Upon determination of the actual Base Rent for the Premises, Landlord and Tenant shall adjust, if necessary, the Base Rent deposited by Tenant for the first full month of the Term as provided in Paragraph 6.B. below, and Tenant's share of Operating Costs, as defined in Paragraph 7A. theretofore paid.

Base Rent and Estimated Basic Operating Costs as defined in Paragraph 7.A. for the first full month of the Term (based upon the estimated rentable area as hereinabove provided) shall be paid by Tenant upon Tenant's execution of this Lease. If the obligation for payment of Base Rent commences on other than the first day of a month, then Base Rent (calculated at the rate applicable to the second full month of the Term) for the partial month shall be prorated on the basis of the actual number of days in the month.
C. Additional Rent. All monies other than Base Rent required to be paid by Tenant hereunder, including, but not limited to, the interest and late charges described in Paragraph 26.D., any monies spent by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 29., and Tenant's Proportionate Share of Basic Operating Costs, as specified in Paragraph 7 of this Lease, shall be considered additional rent ("Additional Rent").

BASIC OPERATING COST

in the Basic Lease Information. "Basic Operating Costs" shall mean all expenses and costs of every kind and nature which Landlord shall pay or become obligated to pay because of or in connection with the management, maintenance, preservation and operation of the Premises and the Building (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied) including but not limited to the following:
(1) Taxes. All real property taxes, including those resulting from any increase in the value of the Building and/or the real property upon which the Building is located, possessory interest taxes, business or license taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such taxes or fees, annual or periodic license or use fees, excises, transit charges, housing fund assessments, open space charges, assessments, levies, fees or charges general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen, of any kind (including fees "in-lieu" of any such tax or assessment) which are assessed, levied, charged, confirmed, or imposed by any public authority upon the real property upon which the Building is located, the Building, its operations or the Rent (or any portion or component thereof) (all of the foregoing being hereinafter collectively referred to as "real property taxes"), or any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax previously included within the definition of real property taxes, or any additional tax the nature of which was previously included within the definition of real property taxes, except (a) inheritance or estate taxes imposed upon or assessed against the Premises, or any part thereof or interest therein, (b) taxes computed upon the basis of net income of Landlord or the owner of any interest therein, except as otherwise provided in the following sentence. Basic Operating Costs shall also include any taxes, assessments, or any other fees imposed by any public authority upon or measured by the monthly rental or other charges payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any gross income tax or excise tax levied by the local governmental authority in which the Building is located, the federal government, or any other governmental body with respect to receipt of such rental, or upon, with respect to or by reason of the development, possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof, or upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises. In the event that it shall not be lawful for Tenant to reimburse Landlord for all or any part of such taxes, the Base Rent payable to Landlord under this Lease shall be revised to net to Landlord the same net rental after imposition of any such taxes on Landlord as would have been payable to Landlord prior to the payment of any such taxes. If Landlord at any time during the Term of this Lease or within two (2) years after termination of this Lease shall receive a refund of real property taxes applicable to a period within the Term of this Lease for which Tenant has paid real property taxes hereunder, Landlord shall refund to Tenant Tenant's proportionate share of said refund if Tenant is not then in Default or was not in Default at the termination of the Lease, as the case may be. If Tenant timely pays real property taxes to Landlord, Landlord alone shall be responsible for any fines, penalties, interest and other charges that result from any late payment of taxes by Landlord.
(2) Insurance. All insurance premiums and costs, including but not limited to, any deductible amounts, premiums and costs of insurance incurred by Landlord, as more fully set forth in Paragraph 8.A. herein.
(3) Repairs and Improvements. The cost of all repairs, replacements and general maintenance for the Premises and the Building (except for those repairs expressly made the financial responsibility of Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, repairs to the extent paid for by proceeds of insurance or by Tenant or other third parties, and alterations attributable solely to tenants of the Building other than Tenant) Tenant shall
10
not be responsible for the cost of repairs to tenant-occupied spaces which are part of the Building other than the Premises. Such repairs, replacements, and general maintenance shall include the cost of any capital improvements made to or capital assets acquired for the Building or the Premises after the Term Commencement Date that are intended by Landlord to reduce any other Basic Operating Cost, are reasonably necessary for the health and safety of the occupants of the Building, or are made to the Building by Landlord after the date of this Lease and are required under any governmental law or regulation, such costs or allocable portions thereof to be amortized over the useful life of the improvement, as determined by the Landlord, together with interest on the unamortized balance at the "prime rate" charged at the time such improvements or capital assets are constructed or acquired by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (San Francisco) plus two (2) percentage points, but in no event more than the maximum rate permitted by law.
(4) Services. To the extent such expenses are not the obligation of Tenant under other provisions of this Lease, all expenses relating to maintenance, janitorial and service agreements and services, and costs of supplies and equipment used in operating and maintaining the Premises and the Building and the equipment therein and the adjacent sidewalks, driveways, parking and service areas, including, without limitation, alarm service, window cleaning, elevator maintenance, the Building exterior maintenance and landscaping.
(5) Utilities. To the extent such expenses are not the obligation of Tenant under other provisions of this Lease, the cost of all utilities which benefit all or a portion of the Premises or the Building,
(6) Management Fee. A management and accounting cost recovery fee equal to three (3%) percent of the sum of Base Rent.
(7) Legal and Accounting. Legal and accounting expenses relating to the Building other than legal expenses related to negotiating leases with tenants and/or prospective tenants in the Building, and any costs or expenses otherwise reimbursable to Landlord, including, without limitation, any costs or expenses reimbursed by policies of insurance carried by Landlord or required to be carried by Landlord under this Lease, and any cost or expenses reimbursable by any tenant within the Building pursuant to Such tenant's lease in the Building, Accounting expenses shall be limited to preparation of annual reconciliation of estimated and actual Operating Costs.
In the event that the Building is not fully occupied during any fiscal year of the Term as determined by Landlord, an adjustment shall be made in computing the Basic Operating Costs for such year so that Tenant pays an equitable portion of all variable items of Basic Operating Costs, as reasonably determined by Landlord; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be entitled to collect in excess of one hundred (100%) percent of the total Basic Operating Costs from all of the tenants in the Building including Tenant.
Basic Operating Costs shall not include specific costs incurred for the account of, separately billed to and paid by specific tenants. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in any instance wherein Landlord, in Landlord's sole discretion, deems Tenant to be responsible for any amounts greater than Tenant's Proportionate Share, Landlord shall have the right to allocate costs in any manner Landlord reasonably deems appropriate.
B. Payment of Estimated Basic Operating Cost. "Estimated Basic Operating Costs" for any particular year shall mean Landlord's estimate of the Basic Operating Cost for such fiscal year made prior to commencement of such fiscal year as hereinafter provided. Landlord shall have
11
the right from time to time to revise its fiscal year and interim accounting periods so long as the periods as so revised are reconciled with prior periods in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied in a consistent manner. Within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date of this Lease, and during the last month of each fiscal year during the Term, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the Estimated Basic Operating Costs for the ensuing fiscal year. During the Early Possession period, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Estimated Basic Operating Cost for the fiscal year to which the Estimated Basic Operating Cost applies in monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month prior to the Lease Commencement Date, in advance. Following the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Estimated Basic Operating Cost with the Base Rent for the fiscal year to which the Estimated Basic Operating Cost applies in monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month during such year, in advance. If at any time during the course of the fiscal year, Landlord determines that Basic Operating Cost is projected to vary from the then Estimated Basic Operating Cost by more than Ten percent (10%), Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, revise the Estimated Basic Operating Cost for the balance of such fiscal year, and Tenant's monthly installments for the remainder of such year shall be adjusted so that by the end of such fiscal year Tenant has paid to Landlord Tenant's Proportionate Share of the revised Estimated Basic Operating Cost for such year. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Estimated Basic Operating Cost for the Premises (calculated on the estimated rentable square feet) for the first full month of the Term. Upon final determination of the rentable square feet of the Premises and useable square feet of the Building, Landlord and Tenant shall adjust such estimated payment.
C. Computation of Basic Operating Cost Adjustment. "Basic Operating Cost Adjustment" shall mean the difference between Estimated Basic Operating Cost and Basic Operation Cost for any fiscal year determined as hereinafter provided. Within One Hundred Twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, as determined by Landlord, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of Basic Operating Cost for the fiscal year just ended, accompanied by a computation of Basic Operating Cost Adjustment. If such statement shows that Tenant's payment based upon Estimated Basic Operating Cost is less than Tenant's Proportionate Share of Basic Operating Cost, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference within twenty (20) days after receipt of such statement. If such statement shows that Tenant's payments of Estimated Basic Operating Cost exceed Tenant's Proportionate Share of Basic Operating Cost, then (provided that Tenant is not in Default under this Lease) Landlord shall credit the difference against the Estimated Basic Operating Cost payment next due. If this Lease has been terminated or the Term hereof has expired prior to the date of such statement, then the Basic Operating Cost Adjustment shall be paid by the appropriate party within twenty (20) days after the date of delivery of the statement and this obligation shall survive termination of the Lease. Should this Lease commence or terminate at any time other than the first day of the fiscal year, Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Basic Operating Cost adjustment shall be prorated by reference to the exact number of calendar days during such fiscal year that this Lease is in effect.
12
D. Net Lease. This shall be a net Lease and Base Rent shall be paid to Landlord absolutely net of all costs and expenses, except as specifically provided to the contrary in this Lease. The provisions for payment of Basic Operating Cost and the Basic Operating Cost Adjustment are intended to pass on to Tenant and reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses of the nature described in Paragraph 7.A. incurred in connection with the management, maintenance, preservation and operation of the Building and such additional facilities now and in subsequent years as may be determined by Landlord to be necessary to the Building.
E. Tenant Audit. In the event that Tenant shall dispute the amount set forth in any statement provided by Landlord under Paragraph 7.B or 7.C above, Tenant shall have the right, not later than sixty (60) days following the receipt of such statement and upon the condition that Tenant shall have paid Landlord the full amount that has been invoiced, to cause Landlord's books and records with respect to Basic Operating Cost for such fiscal year to be audited by certified public accountants selected by Tenant and subject to Landlord's reasonable right of approval. The Basic Operating Cost Adjustment shall be appropriately adjusted on the basis of such audit and the appropriate party shall pay to the other all amounts found by such audit to be owing within thirty (30) days. If such audit discloses a liability for a refund in excess of five percent (5%) of Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Basic Operating Cost Adjustment previously reported, the cost of such audit shall be borne by Landlord; otherwise the cost of such audit shall be paid by Tenant. If Tenant shall not request an audit in accordance with the provisions of this Paragraph 7.E within sixty (60) days after receipt of Landlord's statement provided pursuant to Paragraph 7.B or 7.C, such statement shall be final and binding for all purposes hereof.
INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION
B. Tenant's Insurance.
(1) Property Insurance. Tenant shall procure at Tenant's sole cost and expense and keep in effect from the date of this Lease and at all times until the end of the Term, insurance on all personal property, Fixtures and all improvements made by or for Tenant to the Premises, insuring such property for the full replacement value of such property, exclusive of reasonable deductibles.
(2) Liability Insurance. Tenant shall procure at Tenant's sole cost and expense and keep in effect from the date of this Lease and at all times until the end of the Term either Comprehensive General Liability insurance or Commercial General Liability insurance applying to the use and occupancy of the Premises and the Building, and any part of
13
either, and any areas adjacent thereto, and the business operated by Tenant, or by any other occupant on the Premises, Such insurance shall include Broad Form Contractual Liability insurance coverage insuring all of Tenant's indemnity obligations under this Lease. Such coverage shall have a minimum combined single limit of liability of at least Two Million and no/100th Dollars ($2,000,000.00), and a general aggregate limit of Five Million and no/100th Dollars ($5,000,000.00). All such policies shall be written to apply to all bodily injury, property damage or loss, personal injury and other covered loss, however occasioned, occurring during the policy term, shall be endorsed to add Landlord and Landlord's members, agents and employees, and any party of which Tenant has been notified holding an interest to which this Lease may be subordinated as an additional insured, and shall provide that such coverage shall be primary as it pertains to the Premises and that any insurance maintained by Landlord pertaining to the Premises shall be excess insurance only. Such coverage shall also contain endorsements: (i) deleting any employee exclusion on personal injury coverage; (ii) including employees as additional insureds; (iii) deleting any liquor liability exclusion; and (iv) providing for coverage of employer's automobile non-ownership liability. All such insurance shall provide for severability of interests; shall provide that an act or omission of one of the named insureds shall not reduce or avoid coverage to the other named insureds; and shall afford coverage for all claims based on acts, omissions, injury and damage, which claims occurred or arose (or the onset of which occurred or arose) in whole or in part during the policy period. Said coverage shall be written on an "occurrence" basis, if available. If an "occurrence" basis form is not available, Tenant must purchase "tail" coverage for the most number of years available, and tenant must also purchase "tail" coverage if the retroactive date of an "occurrence" basis form is changed so as to leave a gap in coverage for occurrences that might have occurred in prior years. If a "claims made" policy is ever used, the policy must be endorsed so that Landlord is given the right to purchase "tail" coverage should Tenant for any reason not do so or if the policy is to be canceled for nonpayment of premium.
(3) General Insurance Requirements. All coverages described in this Paragraph 8.B shall be endorsed to provide Landlord with thirty (30) days' notice of cancellation or change in terms. If at any time during the Term the amount or coverage of insurance which Tenant is required to carry under this Paragraph 8.B is, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, materially less than the amount or type of insurance coverage typically carried by owners or tenants of properties located in the general area in which the Premises are located which are similar to and operated for similar purposes as the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to increase the amount or change the types of insurance coverage required under this Paragraph 8.B. All insurance policies required to be carried under this Lease shall be written by companies rated A or better in "Best's Insurance Guide" and authorized to do business in California.

Tenant has not fulfilled its obligation with respect to repairs and cleanup of the Premises or any other Tenant obligations as set forth in this Lease, then Landlord shall have the right to perform any such obligations as it deems necessary at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and any time required by Landlord to complete such obligations shall be considered a period of holding over and the terms of this Paragraph 25 shall apply.
DEFAULT
(1) Abandonment. Abandonment of the Premises for a continuous period in excess of thirty (30) business days will not be an Event of Default so long as Tenant timely performs all other monetary and non-monetary obligations under this Lease and keeps the Premises locked and secured. Tenant waives any right to notice Tenant may have under Section 1951.3 of the Civil Code of the State of California, the terms of this Paragraph 26.A being deemed such notice to Tenant as required by said Section 1951.3.

(3) Other Obligations.

25
B. Remedies Upon Default.
(1) Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant, and on the date specified in such notice, Tenant's right to possession shall terminate, and this Lease shall terminate unless on or before such date all arrears of rental and all other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other Events of Default of this Lease by Tenant at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord. At any time after such termination, Landlord may recover possession of the Premises or any part thereof and expel and remove therefrom Tenant and any other person occupying the same, by any lawful means, and again repossess and enjoy the Premises without prejudice to any of the remedies that Landlord may have under this Lease, or at law or equity by reason of Tenant's Default or of such termination.
(2) Continuation After Default. Even though an Event of Default may have occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession under Paragraph 26.B(1) hereof, and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including without limitation, the right to recover Rent as it becomes due, and Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may exercise all of the rights and remedies of a landlord under Section 1951.4 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor code section. Acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute an election to terminate Tenant's right to possession.
C. Damages After Default. Should Landlord terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 26.B(l) hereof, Landlord shall have the rights and remedies of a Landlord provided by Section 1951.2 of the Civil Code of the State of California, or successor code sections. Upon such termination, in addition to any other rights and remedies to which Landlord may be entitled under applicable law, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant: (1) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rent and other amounts which had been earned at the time of termination, (2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (3) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that the Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and (4) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom. The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in (1) and (2), above shall be computed at the lesser of the "prime rate," as announced from time to time by Wells Fargo, N.A. (San Francisco) plus five (5) percentage points, or the maximum interest rate allowed by law ("Applicable Interest Rate"). The "worth at the time of award" of the amount referred to in (3) above shall be computed by discounting such amount at the Federal Discount Rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award plus one percent (1%). If this Lease provides for any periods during the Term during which Tenant is not required to pay Base Rent or if Tenant otherwise receives a Rent concession, then upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant shall owe to Landlord the full amount of such Base Rent or value of such Rent concession, plus interest at the Applicable Interest Rate, calculated from the date that such Base Rent or Rent concession would have been payable.
26
D. Late Charge. If any installment of Rent is not received by the Landlord from the Tenant by the Fifth (5th) day of each calendar month, such amount shall bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date on which said payment shall be due until the date on which Landlord shall receive said payment. In addition, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to six percent (6%) of the delinquency, to compensate Landlord for the loss of the use of the amount not paid and the administrative costs caused by the delinquency, the parties agreeing that Landlord's damage by virtue of such delinquencies would be difficult to compute and the amount stated herein represents a reasonable estimate thereof. This provision shall not relieve Tenant of Tenant's obligation to pay Rent at the time and in the manner herein specified.
E. Remedies Cumulative. All rights, privileges and elections or remedies of the parties are cumulative and not alternative, to the extent permitted by law and except as otherwise provided herein.
