1.1 LEASE COMMENCEMENT DATE AND LEASE TERM. Subject to Paragraph 2.4 below, the
term of this Lease shall begin, and the Lease Commencement Date shall be deemed
to have occurred, on the Intended Commencement Date, as set forth in Article 1
(the "Lease Commencement Date"). The term of this Lease shall in all events end
on the Lease Expiration Date (as set forth in Article 1). The Lease Term shall
be that period of time commencing on the Lease Commencement Date and ending on
the Lease Expiration Date (the "Lease Term").
1.2 DELIVERY OF POSSESSION. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant possession of the
Leased Premises at such time as the Improvement Work (as defined in Paragraph
2.5 below) is deemed "Substantially Complete" as defined in the Work Letter. If
Landlord is unable to so deliver possession of the Leased Premises to Tenant in
the agreed condition on or before the Intended Commencement Date, Landlord shall
not be in default under this Lease, nor shall this Lease be void, voidable or
cancelable by Tenant until the lapse of ninety (90) days after the Intended
Commencement Date (the "delivery grace period"). In the event Landlord is (a) up
to fifteen (15) days late but less than thirty (30) days late (beyond the
Intended Commencement Date) in delivering the Leased Premises to Tenant, Tenant

the Leased Premises to Tenant by reason of Force Majeure or the action or
inaction of Tenant. If Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Leased
Premises in the agreed condition to Tenant within ninety (90) days after the
Intended Commencement Date (including any extension thereof by reason of Force
Majeure or the actions or inactions of Tenant), then Tenant's sole remedy shall
be to terminate this Lease, and in no event shall Landlord be liable in damages
to Tenant for such delay. Tenant may not terminate this Lease at any time after
the date Landlord notifies Tenant that the Leased Premises have been put into
the agreed condition and are available for delivery to Tenant, unless Landlord's
notice is not given in good faith.
1.3 PERFORMANCE OF IMPROVEMENT WORK; ACCEPTANCE OF POSSESSION. Landlord shall,
pursuant to the work letter attached as Exhibit C hereto and made a part of this
Lease (the "Work Letter"), perform the work and make the installations in the
Leased Premises substantially as set forth in the Work Letter (such work and
installations hereinafter referred to as the "Improvement Work"). Without
limiting the foregoing, Landlord agrees to deliver in good working order the
roof surface and all existing plumbing, lighting, heating, ventilating and air
conditioning systems within the Leased Premises. It is agreed that by occupying
the Leased Premises, Tenant formally accepts same and acknowledges that the
Leased Premises are in the condition called for hereunder, subject to normal
punchlist items specified by Tenant to Landlord in writing within ten (10) days
of such occupancy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may elect to construct
the Improvement Work (and use Tenant's own contractor) by written notice to
Landlord within five (5) business days after it receives a bid from Webcor
(Landlord's Contractor) for construction of the Improvement Work. In the event
Tenant elects to construct the Improvement work using Tenant's own contractor,
Landlord and Tenant agree to amend this Lease and Work Letter to so provide, and
to provide that the Lease Commencement Date will be a fixed date of March 1,
2000 (regardless of completion of the Improvement Work) and Landlord shall agree
to deliver to Tenant the Building Shell (as defined in the Work Letter) upon
full execution of such amendment.
1.4 SURRENDER OF POSSESSION. Immediately prior to the expiration or upon the
sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all of Tenant's signs from
the exterior of the Building and shall remove all of Tenant's equipment, trade
fixtures, furniture, supplies, wall decorations and other personal property from
within the Leased Premises, the Building and the Outside Areas, and shall vacate
and surrender the Leased Premises, the Building, the Outside Areas and the
Property to Landlord in the same condition, broom clean, as existed at the Lease
Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall repair all
damage to the Leased Premises, the exterior of the Building and the Outside
Areas caused by Tenant's removal of Tenant's property. Tenant shall patch and
refinish, to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction, all penetrations made by Tenant
or its employees to the floor, walls or ceiling of the Leased Premises, whether
such penetrations were made with Landlord's approval or not. Tenant shall repair
all damage caused by Tenant to the exterior surface of the Building and the
paved surfaces of the Outside Areas and, where necessary, replace or resurface
same. Additionally, to the extent that Landlord shall have notified or is deemed
to have notified Tenant in writing at the time the improvements were completed
that it desired to have certain improvements made by Tenant or at the request of
Tenant removed at the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease, Tenant
shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease, remove any such
improvements constructed or installed by Landlord or Tenant and repair all
damage caused by such removal. If the Leased Premises, the Building, the Outside
Areas and the Property are not surrendered to Landlord in the condition required
by this paragraph at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease,
Landlord may, at Tenant's expense, so remove Tenant's signs, property and/or
improvements not so removed and make such repairs and replacements not so made
or hire, at Tenant's expense, independent contractors to perform such work.
Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord in
returning the Leased Premises, the Building and the Outside Areas to the
required condition, together with interest on all costs so incurred from the
date paid by Landlord at the then maximum rate of interest not prohibited or
made usurious by law until paid. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of all
costs so incurred plus such interest thereon, within ten (10) days of Landlord's
billing Tenant for same. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against loss or
liability resulting from delay by Tenant in surrendering the Leased Premises,
including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding Tenant or any
4.

losses to Landlord with respect to lost opportunities to lease to succeeding
tenants.
ARTICLE 3
RENT, LATE CHARGES AND SECURITY DEPOSITS
3.1 BASE MONTHLY RENT. Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date (as determined
pursuant to Paragraph 2.3 above) and continuing throughout the Lease Term,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without prior demand therefor, in advance on the
first day of each calendar month, the amount set forth as "Base Monthly Rent" in
Article 1 (the "Base Monthly Rent").
3.2 ADDITIONAL RENT. Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date (as determined
pursuant to Paragraph 2.3 above) and continuing throughout the Lease Term, in
addition to the Base Monthly Rent and to the extent not required by Landlord to
be contracted for and paid directly by Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as
additional rent (the "Additional Rent") the following amounts:
(a) An amount equal to all Property Operating Expenses (as defined in
Article 13) incurred by Landlord. Payment shall be made by whichever of the
following methods (or combination of methods) is (are) from time to time
designated by Landlord:
(i) Landlord may forward invoices or bills for such expenses to
Tenant, and Tenant shall, no later than ten (10) days prior to the due date, pay
such invoices or bills and deliver satisfactory evidence of such payment to
Landlord, and/or
(ii) Landlord may bill to Tenant, on a periodic basis not more
frequently than monthly, the amount of such expenses (or group of expenses) as
paid or incurred by Landlord, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of
such expenses within ten days after receipt of a written bill therefor from
Landlord, and/or
(iii) Landlord may deliver to Tenant Landlord's reasonable estimate
of any given expense (such as Landlord's Insurance Costs or Real Property
Taxes), or group of expenses, which it anticipates will be paid or incurred for
the ensuing calendar or fiscal year, as Landlord may determine, and Tenant shall
pay to Landlord an amount equal to the estimated amount of such expenses for
such year in equal monthly installments during such year with the installments
of Base Monthly Rent.
Landlord reserves the right to change from time to time the methods of billing
Tenant for any given expense or group of expenses or the periodic basis on which
such expenses are billed.
(a) Landlord's share of the consideration received by Tenant upon
certain assignments and sublettings as required by Article 7.
(b) Any legal fees and costs that Tenant is obligated to pay or
reimburse to Landlord pursuant to Article 13; and
(c) Any other charges or reimbursements due Landlord from Tenant
pursuant to the terms of this Lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may elect by written notice to Tenant to
have Tenant pay Real Property Taxes or any portion thereof directly to the
applicable taxing authority, in which case Tenant shall make such payments and
deliver satisfactory evidence of payment to Landlord no later than ten (10) days
before such Real Property Taxes become delinquent.
3.2 YEAR-END ADJUSTMENTS. If Landlord shall have elected to bill Tenant for the
Property Operating Expenses (or any group of such expenses) on an estimated
basis in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3.2(a)(iii) above, Landlord
shall furnish to Tenant within three months following the end of the applicable
calendar or fiscal year, as the case may be, a statement setting forth (i) the
amount of such expenses paid or incurred during the just ended calendar or
fiscal year, as appropriate, and (ii) the amount that Tenant has paid to
Landlord for credit against such expenses for such period. If Tenant shall have
paid more than its obligation for such expenses for the stated period, Landlord
shall, at its election, either (i) credit the amount of such overpayment toward
the next ensuing payment or payments of Additional Rent that would otherwise be
due or (ii) refund in cash to Tenant the amount of such overpayment. If such
year-end statement shall show that Tenant did not pay its obligation for such
expenses in full, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such
underpayment within ten days from Landlord's billing of same to Tenant. The
provisions of this Paragraph shall survive the expiration or sooner termination
of this Lease.
3.3 LATE CHARGE, AND INTEREST ON RENT IN DEFAULT. Tenant acknowledges that the
late payment by Tenant of any monthly installment of Base Monthly Rent or any
Additional Rent will cause Landlord to incur certain costs and expenses not
contemplated under this Lease, the exact amounts of which are extremely
difficult or impractical to fix. Such costs and expenses will include without
limitation, administration and collection costs and processing and accounting
expenses. Therefor, if any installment of Base Monthly Rent is not received by
Landlord from Tenant within five (5) calendar days after the same becomes due,
Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a late charge in an amount equal to the
amount set forth in Article 1 as the "Late Charge Amount," and if any Additional
Rent is not received by Landlord when the same becomes due, Tenant shall
immediately pay to Landlord a late charge in an
5.
<PAGE> 6
amount equal to 5% of the Additional Rent not so paid. Landlord and Tenant agree
that this late charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and
expenses and is fair compensation to Landlord for the anticipated loss Landlord
would suffer by reason of Tenant's failure to make timely payment. In no event
shall this provision for a late charge be deemed to grant to Tenant a grace
period or extension of time within which to pay any rental installment or
prevent Landlord from exercising any right or remedy available to Landlord upon
Tenant's failure to pay each rental installment due under this Lease when due,
including the right to terminate this Lease. If any rent remains delinquent for
a period in excess of five (5) calendar days, then, in addition to such late
charge, Tenant shall pay to Landlord interest on any rent that is not so paid
from said tenth day at the then maximum rate of interest not prohibited or made
usurious by Law until paid.
3.4 PAYMENT OF RENT. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Lease,
all rent shall be paid in lawful money of the United States, without any
abatement, reduction or offset for any reason whatsoever, to Landlord at such
address as Landlord may designate from time to time. Tenant's obligation to pay
Base Monthly Rent and all Additional Rent shall be appropriately prorated at the
commencement and expiration of the Lease Term. The failure by Tenant to pay any
Additional Rent as required pursuant to this Lease when due shall be treated the
same as a failure by Tenant to pay Base Monthly Rent when due, and Landlord
shall have the same rights and remedies against Tenant as Landlord would have
had Tenant failed to pay the Base Monthly Rent when due.
3.5 PREPAID RENT. Tenant shall, upon execution of this Lease, pay to Landlord
the amount set forth in Article 1 as "First Month's Prepaid Rent" as prepayment
of rent for credit against the first payment of Base Monthly Rent due hereunder.
3.6 SECURITY DEPOSIT.
(a) Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, no later than the Lease
Commencement Date, the amount set forth in Article 1 as the "Security Deposit"
as security for the performance by Tenant of the terms of this Lease to be
performed by Tenant, and not as prepayment of rent. In the event (1) Tenant does
not elect to use the Additional Allowance as set forth in Section 4 of the Work
Letter and (2) Tenant elects to fund any amount of the cost for the Tenant
Improvements above the amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (such amount
the "Tenant Contribution") and provided that Tenant is not then in default (and
has never been in default) under this Lease, then following completion of the
Improvement Work and payment in full by Tenant of the Tenant Contribution, the
Security Deposit shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Tenant Contribution,
up to a maximum of $573,006.75. In addition, in the event (i) Tenant reports net
profits for eight (8) consecutive quarters (as shown on its quarterly financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles), and (ii) Tenant has achieved a market capitalization of
$8,000,000,000 for four (4) consecutive quarters (as shown on its quarterly
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles) and provided that Tenant is not then in default (and has never been
in default) under this Lease, upon Tenant's written request to Landlord (which
request shall include supporting documentation), the Security Deposit shall be
reduced to an amount equal to one month of the Base Monthly Rent then in effect.
(b) Landlord may apply such portion or portions of the Security Deposit
as are reasonably necessary for the following purposes: (i) to remedy any
default by Tenant in the payment of Base Monthly Rent or Additional Rent or a
late charge or interest on defaulted rent, or any other monetary payment
obligation of Tenant under this Lease; (ii) to repair damage to the Leased
Premises, the Building or the Outside Areas caused or permitted to occur by
Tenant; (iii) to clean and restore and repair the Leased Premises, the Building
or the Outside Areas following their surrender to Landlord if not surrendered in
the condition required pursuant to the provisions of Article 2, and (iv) to
remedy any other default of Tenant to the extent permitted by Law including,
without limitation, failure of Tenant to comply with the terms of Paragraph 6.4
hereof. In this regard, Tenant hereby waives any restriction on the uses to
which the Security Deposit may be applied as contained in Section 1950.7(c) of
the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute. In the event the
Security Deposit or any portion thereof is so used, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, promptly upon demand, an amount in cash sufficient to restore the
Security Deposit to the full original sum. If Tenant fails to promptly restore
the Security Deposit and if Tenant shall have paid to Landlord any sums as "Last
Month's Prepaid Rent," Landlord may, in addition to any other remedy Landlord
may have under this Lease, reduce the amount of Tenant's Last Month's Prepaid
Rent by transferring all or portions of such Last Month's Prepaid Rent to
Tenant's Security Deposit until such Security Deposit is restored to the amount
set forth in Article 1. Landlord shall not be deemed a trustee of the Security
Deposit. Landlord may use the Security Deposit in Landlord's ordinary business
and shall not be required to segregate it from Landlord's general accounts.
Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit. If
Landlord transfers the Building or the Property during the Lease Term, Landlord
shall pay the Security Deposit to any subsequent owner in conformity with the
provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and/or any successor
statute, in which event the transferring landlord shall be released from all
liability for the return of the Security Deposit. Tenant specifically grants to
Landlord (and Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code
Section 1950.7 to the contrary) a period of sixty (60) days following a
surrender of the Leased Premises by Tenant to Landlord within which to inspect
the Leased Premises, make required restorations and repairs, receive and verify
workmen's billings therefor, and prepare a final accounting with respect to the
Security Deposit. In no event shall the Security Deposit or any portion thereof,
be considered prepaid rent.

abide, observe, or comply. Tenant's obligations hereunder shall survive the
expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
4.8 COMPLIANCE WITH INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS. With respect to any insurance
policies required or permitted to be carried by Landlord in accordance with the
provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall not conduct nor permit any other person

the Outside Areas or the Property which (i) is prohibited under the terms of any
such policies, (ii) could result in the termination of the coverage afforded
under any of such policies, (iii) could give to the insurance carrier the right

opinion of Landlord, unauthorized persons are using any of the Outside Areas by
reason of, or under claim of, the express or implied authority or consent of
Tenant, then Tenant, upon demand of Landlord, shall restrain, to the fullest
extent then allowed by Law, such unauthorized use, and shall initiate such
appropriate proceedings as may be required to so restrain such use. Landlord

disposal of Hazardous Materials; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be
responsible for contamination of the Leased Premises by Hazardous Materials
existing as of the date the Leased Premises are delivered to Tenant (whether
before or after the Scheduled Delivery Date) unless caused by Tenant. Tenant
shall not store, use or dispose of any Hazardous Materials except for those
Hazardous Materials listed in a Hazardous Materials management plan ("HMMP")
which Tenant shall deliver to Landlord upon execution of this Lease and update

Permitted Materials as and when such documentation is provided to any regulatory
authority having jurisdiction, in no event shall Tenant cause or permit to be

underlying or adjacent to the Building any Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall be
solely responsible for and shall defend, indemnify, and hold Landlord and its
agents harmless from and against all claims, costs and liabilities, including
attorneys' fees and costs, arising out of or in connection with Tenant's
storage, use and/or disposal of Hazardous Materials. If the presence of
Hazardous Materials on the Leased Premises caused or permitted by Tenant results
in contamination or deterioration of water or soil, then Tenant shall promptly
take any and all action necessary to clean up such contamination, but the
foregoing shall in no event be deemed to constitute permission by Landlord to
allow the presence of such Hazardous Materials. At any time prior to the
expiration of the Lease Term if Tenant has a reasonable basis to suspect that
there has been any release or the presence of Hazardous Materials in the ground
or ground water on the Leased Premises which did not exist upon commencement of
the Lease Term, Tenant shall have the right to conduct appropriate tests of
water and soil and to deliver to Landlord the results of such tests to
demonstrate that no contamination in excess of permitted levels has occurred as
a result of Tenant's use of the Leased Premises. Tenant shall further be solely
responsible for, and shall defend, indemnify, and hold Landlord and its agents
harmless from and against all claims, costs and liabilities, including
attorneys' fees and costs, arising out of or in connection with any removal,
cleanup and restoration work and materials required hereunder to return the
Leased Premises and any other property of whatever nature to their condition at
the time the Leased Premises were delivered to Tenant.
(c) Upon termination or expiration of the Lease, Tenant at its sole
expense shall cause all Hazardous Materials placed in or about the Leased
Premises, the Building and/or the Property by Tenant, its agents, contractors,
or invitees, and all installations (whether interior or exterior) made by or on
behalf of Tenant relating to the storage, use, disposal or transportation of
Hazardous Materials to be removed from the property and transported for use,
storage or disposal in accordance and compliance with all Laws and other
requirements respecting Hazardous Materials used or permitted to be used by
Tenant. Tenant shall apply for and shall obtain from all appropriate regulatory
authorities (including any applicable fire department or regional water quality
control board) all permits, approvals and clearances necessary for the closure
of the Property and shall take all other actions as may be required to complete
the closure of the Building and the Property. In addition, prior to vacating the
Leased Premises, Tenant shall undertake and submit to Landlord an environmental
site assessment from an environmental consulting company reasonably acceptable
to Landlord which site assessment shall evidence Tenant's compliance with this
Paragraph 4.11.
(d) At any time prior to expiration of the Lease term, subject to
reasonable prior notice (not less than forty-eight (48) hours) and Tenant's
reasonable security requirements and provided such activities do not
unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Tenant's business at the Leased
Premises, Landlord shall have the right to enter in and upon the Property,
Building and Leased Premises in order to conduct appropriate tests of water and
soil to determine whether levels of any Hazardous Materials in excess of legally
permissible levels has occurred as a result of Tenant's use thereof. Landlord
shall furnish copies of all such test results and reports to Tenant and, at
Tenant's option and cost, shall permit split sampling for testing and analysis
by Tenant. Such testing shall be at Tenant's expense if Landlord has a
reasonable basis for suspecting and confirms the presence of Hazardous Materials
in the soil or surface or ground water in, on, under, or about the Property, the
Building or the Leased Premises, which has been caused by or resulted from the
activities of Tenant, its agents, contractors, or invitees.
(e) Landlord may voluntarily cooperate in a reasonable manner with the
efforts of all governmental agencies in reducing actual or potential
environmental damage. Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease or to
any reduction in or abatement of rent by reason of such compliance or
cooperation. Tenant agrees at all times to cooperate fully with the requirements
and recommendations of governmental agencies regulating, or otherwise involved
in, the protection of the environment.
4.12 RULES AND REGULATIONS. In the event Redback Networks Inc. is no longer the
sole tenant of the Leased Premises, Landlord shall have the right from time to
time to establish reasonable rules and regulations and/or amendments or
additions thereto respecting the use of the Leased Premises and the Outside
Areas for the care and orderly management of the Property. Upon delivery to
Tenant of a copy of such rules and regulations or any amendments or additions
thereto, Tenant shall comply with such rules and regulations. A violation by
Tenant of any of such rules and regulations shall constitute a default by Tenant
under this Lease. If there is a conflict between the rules and regulations and
any of the provisions of this Lease, the provisions of this Lease shall prevail.
Landlord

without the consent or joinder of Tenant, such easements, rights of way and
dedications that Landlord deems necessary, and to cause the recordation of
parcel maps and restrictions, so long as such easements, rights of way and
dedications not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Leased Premises by
Tenant. Tenant agrees to execute any documents reasonably requested by Landlord
to effectuate any such easement rights, dedications, maps or restrictions.

hereby reserves to itself and its designees rights of access, use and occupancy

ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS
7.1 BY TENANT. Tenant shall not make any alterations to or modifications of the
Leased Premises or construct any improvements within the Leased Premises until
Landlord shall have first approved, in writing, the plans and specifications
therefor, which approval may be withheld in Landlord's reasonable discretion.
Landlord's approval shall be deemed given if not denied by Landlord in a written
notice to Tenant delivered within fifteen (15) days following receipt of
Tenant's written request. Tenant's written request shall also contain a request
for Landlord to elect whether or not it will require Tenant to remove the
subject alterations, modifications or improvements at the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease. If such additional request is not included, Landlord
may make such election at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease
(and for purposes of Tenant's removal obligations set forth in Section 2.6
above, Landlord shall be deemed to have made the election at the time the
alterations, modifications or improvements were completed). All such
modifications, alterations or improvements, once so approved, shall be made,
constructed or installed by Tenant at Tenant's expense (including all permit
fees and governmental charges related thereto), using a licensed contractor
first approved by Landlord, in substantial compliance with the Landlord-approved
plans and specifications therefor. All work undertaken by Tenant shall be done
in accordance with all Laws and in a good and workmanlike manner using new
materials of good quality. Tenant shall not commence the making of any such
modifications or alterations or the construction of any such improvements until
(i) all required governmental approvals and permits shall have been obtained,
(ii) all requirements regarding insurance imposed by this Lease have been
satisfied, (iii) Tenant shall have given Landlord at least five (5) business
days prior written notice of its intention to commence such work so that
Landlord may post and file notices of non-responsibility, and (iv) if requested

builder's risk insurance in an amount satisfactory to Landlord in its reasonable
discretion to cover any perils relating to the proposed work not covered by
insurance carried by Tenant pursuant to Article 9. In no event shall Tenant make
any modification, alterations or improvements whatsoever to the Outside Areas or
the exterior or structural components of the Building including, without
limitation, any cuts or penetrations in the floor, roof or exterior walls of the
Leased Premises. As used in this Article, the term "modifications, alterations
and/or improvements" shall include, without limitation, the installation of
additional electrical outlets, overhead lighting fixtures, drains, sinks,
partitions, doorways, or the like. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant,
without Landlord's prior written consent, shall be permitted to make
non-structural alterations to the Building, provided that: (a) such alterations
do not exceed $50,000 individually or $200,000 in the aggregate, (b) Tenant
shall timely provide Landlord the notice no less than ten (10) days prior to
commencing such alterations , (c) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within
thirty (30) days of completion of the alteration and deliver to Landlord a set

construction changes made, and (d) Tenant shall, upon Landlord's request, remove
the alteration at the termination of the Lease and restore the Leased Premises
to their condition prior to such alteration.
7.2 OWNERSHIP OF IMPROVEMENTS. All modifications, alterations and
improvements made or added to the Leased Premises by Tenant (other than Tenant's
inventory, equipment, movable furniture, wall decorations and trade fixtures)
shall be deemed real property and a part of the Leased Premises, but shall
remain the property of Tenant during the Lease, and Tenant hereby covenants and
agrees not to grant a security interest in any such items to any party other
than Landlord. Any such modifications, alterations or improvements, once
completed, shall not be altered or removed from the Leased Premises during the
Lease Term without Landlord's written approval first obtained in accordance with
the provisions of Paragraph 6.1 above. At the expiration or sooner termination
of this Lease, all such modifications, alterations and improvements other than
Tenant's inventory, equipment, movable
11.
<PAGE> 12
furniture, wall decorations and trade fixtures, shall automatically become the
property of Landlord and shall be surrendered to Landlord as part of the Leased
Premises as required pursuant to Article 2, unless Landlord shall require Tenant
to remove any of such modifications, alterations or improvements in accordance
with the provisions of Article 2, in which case Tenant shall so remove same.
Landlord shall have no obligations to reimburse Tenant for all or any portion of
the cost or value of any such modifications, alterations or improvements so
surrendered to Landlord. All modifications, alterations or improvements which
are installed or constructed on or attached to the Leased Premises by Landlord
and/or at Landlord's expense shall be deemed real property and a part of the
Leased Premises and shall be property of Landlord. All lighting, plumbing,
electrical, heating, ventilating and air conditioning fixtures, partitioning,
window coverings, wall coverings and floor coverings installed by Tenant shall
be deemed improvements to the Leased Premises and not trade fixtures of Tenant.
7.3 ALTERATIONS REQUIRED BY LAW. Tenant shall make all modifications,
alterations and improvements to the Leased Premises, at its sole cost, that are
required by any Law because of (i) Tenant's use or occupancy of the Leased
Premises, the Building, the Outside Areas or the Property, (ii) Tenant's
application for any permit or governmental approval, or (iii) Tenant's making of
any modifications, alterations or improvements to or within the Leased Premises.
If Landlord shall, at any time during the Lease Term, be required by any
governmental authority to make any modifications, alterations or improvements to
the Building or the Property, or if due to any change in those Laws applicable
to commercial buildings generally, capital improvements are required to the
Leased Premises (except for modifications, alterations or improvements covered
by (i), (ii) or (iii) above) Landlord shall perform such modifications,
alterations or improvements and the cost incurred by Landlord in making such
modifications, alterations or improvements, including interest at a rate equal
to the greater of (a) 12%, or (b) the sum of that rate quoted by Wells Fargo
Bank, N.T. & S.A. from time to time as its prime rate, plus two percent (2%)
("Wells Prime Plus Two") (but in no event more than the maximum rate of interest
not prohibited or made usurious), shall be amortized by Landlord over the useful
life of such modifications, alterations or improvements, as determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the monthly
amortized cost of such modifications, alterations and improvements as so
amortized shall be considered a Property Maintenance Cost.
7.4 LIENS. Tenant shall keep the Property and every part thereof free from any
lien, and shall pay when due all bills arising out of any work performed,
materials furnished, or obligations incurred by Tenant, its agents, employees or
contractors relating to the Property. If any such claim of lien is recorded
against Tenant's interest in this Lease, the Property or any part thereof,
Tenant shall bond against, discharge or otherwise cause such lien to be entirely
released within ten days after the same has been recorded. Tenant's failure to
do so shall be conclusively deemed a material default under the terms of this
Lease.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING BY TENANT
8.1 BY TENANT. Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Premises or any portion
thereof or assign its interest in this Lease, whether voluntarily or by
operation of Law, without Landlord's prior written consent which shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Any attempted subletting or assignment without Landlord's
prior written consent, at Landlord's election, shall constitute a default by
Tenant under the terms of this Lease. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from
any person or entity other than Tenant, or the acceptance of rent by Landlord
from Tenant with knowledge of a violation of the provisions of this paragraph,
shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Article
or this Lease or to be a consent to any subletting by Tenant or any assignment
of Tenant's interest in this Lease. Without limiting the circumstances in which
it may be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to an assignment or
subletting, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that it shall be reasonable for
Landlord to withhold its consent in the following instances:
(a) the proposed assignee or sublessee is a governmental agency;
(b) in Landlord's reasonable judgment, the use of the Leased Premises
by the proposed assignee or sublessee would involve occupancy by other than for
a Permitted Use, would entail any alterations which would lessen the value of
the leasehold improvements in the Leased Premises, or would require increased
services by Landlord;
(c) in Landlord's reasonable judgment, the financial worth of the
proposed assignee is less than that of Tenant or does not meet the credit
standards applied by Landlord;
(d) the proposed assignee or sublessee (or any of its affiliates) has
been in material default under a lease, has been in litigation with a previous
landlord, or in the ten years prior to the assignment or sublease has filed for
bankruptcy protection, has been the subject of an involuntary bankruptcy, or has
been adjudged insolvent;
(e) Landlord has experienced a previous default by or is in litigation
with the proposed assignee or sublessee;
(f) in Landlord's reasonable judgment, the Leased Premises, or the
relevant part thereof, will be used in a manner that will violate any negative
covenant as to use contained in this Lease;
(g) the use of the Leased Premises by the proposed assignee or
sublessee will violate any applicable law, ordinance or regulation;
12.
<PAGE> 13
(h) the proposed assignee or sublessee is, as of the date of this
Lease, a tenant in the Building;
(i) the proposed assignment or sublease fails to include all of the
terms and provisions required to be included therein pursuant to this Article 7;
(j) Tenant is in default of any obligation of Tenant under this Lease,
or Tenant has defaulted under this Lease on three or more occasions during the
12 months preceding the date that Tenant shall request consent; or
(k) in the case of a subletting of less than the entire Leased
Premises, if the subletting would result in the division of the Leased Premises
into more than two subparcels or would require improvements to be made outside
of the Leased Premises.
8.2 MERGER, REORGANIZATION, OR SALE OF ASSETS. Any dissolution, merger,
consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant, or the sale or other transfer
in the aggregate over the Lease Term of a controlling percentage of the capital
stock of Tenant, or the sale or transfer of all or a substantial portion of the
assets of Tenant, shall be deemed a voluntary assignment of Tenant's interest in
this Lease. The phrase "controlling percentage" means the ownership of and the
right to vote stock possessing more than fifty percent of the total combined
voting power of all classes of Tenant's capital stock issued, outstanding and
entitled to vote for the election of directors. If Tenant is a partnership, a
withdrawal or change, voluntary, involuntary or by operation of Law, of any
general partner, or the dissolution of the partnership, shall be deemed a
voluntary assignment of Tenant's interest in this Lease. Upon Landlord's request
from time to time, Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with a statement
certified by the Tenant's chief operating officer, which shall provide the
following information: (a) the names of all of Tenant's shareholders and their
ownership interests at the time thereof, provided Tenant's shares are not
publicly traded; (b) the state in which Tenant is incorporated; (c) the location
of Tenant's principal place of business; (d) information regarding a material
change in the corporate structure of Tenant, including, without limitation, a
merger or consolidation; and (e) any other information regarding Tenant's
ownership that Landlord reasonably requests. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant may, without Landlord's prior written consent and without being subject
to any of the provisions of this Article 7, including without limitation,
Landlord's right to recapture any portion of the Leased Premises, sublet the
Leased Premises or assign this Lease to (individually, a "Permitted Assignee,"
collectively, "Permitted Assignees"): (i) a subsidiary, affiliate, division,
corporation or joint venture controlling, controlled by or under common control
with Tenant; (ii) a successor corporation related to Tenant by merger,
consolidation, nonbankruptcy reorganization, or government action; or (iii)
Tenant, after the sale or transfer of a controlling percentage of the capital
stock of Tenant; provided that any Permitted Assignee under (i), (ii) or (iii)
above has a market capitalization on the effective date of the assignment or
sublease which is equal to or greater than Tenant.
8.3 LANDLORD'S ELECTION. If Tenant shall desire to assign its interest under the
Lease or to sublet the Leased Premises, Tenant must first notify Landlord, in
writing, of its intent to so assign or sublet, at least thirty (30) days in
advance of the date it intends to so assign its interest in this Lease or sublet
the Leased Premises but not sooner than one hundred eighty days in advance of
such date, specifying in detail the terms of such proposed assignment or
subletting, including the name of the proposed assignee or sublessee, the
property assignee's or sublessee's intended use of the Leased Premises, current
financial statements (including a balance sheet, income statement and statement
of cash flow, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles) of such proposed assignee or sublessee, the form of documents to be
used in effectuating such assignment or subletting and such other information as
Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall have a period of ten (10)
business days following receipt of such notice and the required information
within which to do one of the following: (i) consent to such requested
assignment or subletting subject to Tenant's compliance with the conditions set
forth in Paragraph 7.4 below, or (ii) refuse to so consent to such requested
assignment or subletting, provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably
refused, or (iii) terminate this Lease as to the portion (including all) of the
Leased Premises that is the subject of the proposed assignment or subletting if
Tenant proposes to assign or sublet fifty percent (50%) or more of the total
space leased by Tenant from Landlord in the Project (pursuant to this Lease and
all other leases between Landlord and Tenant). During such ten (10) business day
period, Tenant covenants and agrees to supply to Landlord, upon request, all
necessary or relevant information which Landlord may reasonably request
respecting such proposed assignment or subletting and/or the proposed assignee
or sublessee.
8.4 CONDITIONS TO LANDLORD'S CONSENT. If Landlord elects to consent, or shall
have been ordered to so consent by a court of competent jurisdiction, to such
requested assignment or subletting, such consent shall be expressly conditioned
upon the occurrence of each of the conditions below set forth, and any purported
assignment or subletting made or ordered prior to the full and complete
satisfaction of each of the following conditions shall be void and, at the
election of Landlord, which election may be exercised at any time following such
a purported assignment or subletting but prior to the satisfaction of each of
the stated conditions, shall constitute a material default by Tenant under this
Lease until cured by satisfying in full each such condition by the assignee or
sublessee. The conditions are as follows:
(a) Landlord having approved in form and substance the assignment or
sublease agreement and any ancillary documents, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld by Landlord if the requirements of this Article 7 are
otherwise complied with.
(b) Each such sublessee or assignee having agreed, in writing
satisfactory to Landlord and its counsel and for the benefit of Landlord, to
assume, to be bound by, and to perform the obligations of this Lease to be
performed by Tenant which relate to space being subleased.
13.
<PAGE> 14
(c) Tenant having fully and completely performed all of its obligations
under the terms of this Lease through and including the date of such assignment
or subletting.
(d) Tenant having reimbursed to Landlord all reasonable costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord in conjunction with the
processing and documentation of any such requested subletting or assignment.
(e) Tenant having delivered to Landlord a complete and fully-executed
duplicate original of such sublease agreement or assignment agreement (as
applicable) and all related agreements.
(f) Tenant having paid, or having agreed in writing to pay as to future
payments, to Landlord the assignment consideration or excess rentals to be paid
to Tenant or to any other on Tenant's behalf or for Tenant's benefit for such
assignment or subletting as follows:
(i) If Tenant assigns its interest under this Lease and if all or a
portion of the consideration for such assignment is to be paid by the assignee
at the time of the assignment, that Tenant shall have paid to Landlord and
Landlord shall have received an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the
assignment consideration so paid or to be paid (whichever is the greater) at the
time of the assignment by the assignee; or
(ii) If Tenant assigns its interest under this Lease and if Tenant
is to receive all or a portion of the consideration for such assignment in
future installments, that Tenant and Tenant's assignee shall have entered into a
written agreement with and for the benefit of Landlord satisfactory to Landlord
and its counsel whereby Tenant and Tenant's assignee jointly agree to pay to
Landlord an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of all such future assignment
consideration installments to be paid by such assignee as and when such
assignment consideration is so paid.
(iii) If Tenant subleases the Leased Premises, that Tenant and
Tenant's sublessee shall have entered into a written agreement with and for the
benefit of Landlord satisfactory to Landlord and its counsel whereby Tenant and
Tenant's sublessee jointly agree to pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all
excess rentals to be paid by such sublessee as and when such excess rentals are
so paid.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event either (1) Tenant has assigned or
proposes to assign its interest in this Lease and any other lease between
Landlord and Tenant for space in the Project equal to or exceeding 99,870 square
feet; or (2) Tenant has sublet or proposes to sublet 99,870 or more square feet
of the total space in the Project leased by Tenant (pursuant to this Lease and
all other leases between Landlord and Tenant), then Landlord shall be entitled
to one hundred percent (100%) of the assignment consideration or excess rentals,
as applicable, in connection with any assignment or sublease, payable as set
forth in (i) through (iii) above.
8.4 ASSIGNMENT CONSIDERATION AND EXCESS RENTALS DEFINED. For purposes of this
Article, including any amendment to this Article by way of addendum or other
writing, the term "assignment consideration" shall mean all consideration to be
paid by the assignee to Tenant or to any other party on Tenant's behalf or for
Tenant's benefit as consideration for such assignment, after deduction for
reasonable leasing commissions and reasonable legal fees paid by Tenant in
connection with such assignment but without deductions for any other costs or
expenses (including, without limitation, tenant improvements, capital
improvements, building upgrades, permit fees, and other consultants' fees)
incurred by Tenant in connection with such assignment, and the term "excess
rentals" shall mean all consideration to be paid by the sublessee to Tenant or
to any other party on Tenant's behalf or for Tenant's benefit for the sublease
of all or any portion of the Leased Premises in excess of the rent due to
Landlord under the terms of this Lease for the portion so subleased for the same
period, after deduction for reasonable leasing commissions and reasonable legal
fees paid by Tenant in connection with such assignment but without deductions
for any other costs or expenses (including, without limitation, tenant
improvements, capital improvements, building upgrades, permit fees, and other
consultants' fees) incurred by Tenant in connection with such sublease. Tenant
agrees that the portion of any assignment consideration and/or excess rentals
arising from any assignment or subletting by Tenant which is to be paid to
Landlord pursuant to this Article now is and shall then be the property of
Landlord and not the property of Tenant.
8.5 PAYMENTS. All payments required by this Article to be made to Landlord shall
be made in cash in full as and when they become due. At the time Tenant,
Tenant's assignee or sublessee makes each such payment to Landlord, Tenant or
Tenant's assignee or sublessee, as the case may be, shall deliver to Landlord an
itemized statement in reasonable detail showing the method by which the amount
due Landlord was calculated and certified by the party making such payment as
true and correct.
8.6 GOOD FAITH. The rights granted to Tenant by this Article are granted in
consideration of Tenant's express covenant that all pertinent allocations which
are made by Tenant between the rental value of the Leased Premises and the value
of any of Tenant's personal property which may be conveyed or leased generally
concurrently with and which may reasonably be considered a part of the same
transaction as the permitted assignment or subletting shall be made fairly,
honestly and in good faith. If Tenant shall breach this covenant, Landlord may
immediately declare Tenant to be in default under the terms of this Lease and
terminate this Lease and/or exercise any other rights and remedies Landlord
would have under the terms of this Lease in the case of a material default by
Tenant under this Lease.
8.7 EFFECT OF LANDLORD'S CONSENT. No subletting or assignment, even with the
consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its personal and primary obligation
to pay rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed
14.
<PAGE> 15
by Tenant hereunder. Consent by Landlord to one or more assignments of Tenant's
interest in this Lease or to one or more sublettings of the Leased Premises
shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.
If Landlord shall have been ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction to
consent to a requested assignment or subletting, or such an assignment or
subletting shall have been ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction over the
objection of Landlord, such assignment or subletting shall not be binding
between the assignee (or sublessee) and Landlord until such time as all
conditions set forth in Paragraph 7.4 above have been fully satisfied (to the
extent not then satisfied) by the assignee or sublessee, including, without
limitation, the payment to Landlord of all agreed assignment considerations
and/or excess rentals then due Landlord.
ARTICLE 10
LIMITATION ON LANDLORD'S LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY
10.1 LIMITATION ON LANDLORD'S LIABILITY AND RELEASE. Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant for, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord and its partners,
principals, members, officers, agents, employees, lenders, attorneys, and
consultants from, any and all liability, whether in contract, tort or on any
other basis, for any injury to or any damage sustained by Tenant, Tenant's
agents, employees, contractors or invitees, any damage to Tenant's property, or
any loss to Tenant's business, loss of Tenant's profits or other financial loss
of Tenant resulting from or attributable to the condition of, the management of,
the repair or maintenance of, the protection of, the supply of services or
utilities to, the damage in or destruction of the Leased Premises, the Building,
the Property or the Outside Areas, including without limitation (i) the failure,
interruption, rationing or other curtailment or cessation in the supply of
electricity, water, gas or other utility service to the Property, the Building
or the Leased Premises; (ii) the vandalism or forcible entry into the Building
or the Leased Premises; (iii) the penetration of water into or onto any portion
of the Leased Premises; (iv) the failure to provide security and/or adequate
lighting in or about the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises, (v) the
existence of any design or construction defects within the Property, the
Building or the Leased Premises; (vi) the failure of any mechanical systems to
function properly (such as the HVAC systems); (vii) the blockage of access to
any portion of the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises, except that
Tenant does not so release Landlord from such liability to the extent such
damage was proximately caused by Landlord's active negligence, willful
misconduct, or Landlord's failure to perform an obligation expressly undertaken
pursuant to this Lease after a reasonable period of time shall have lapsed
following receipt of written notice from Tenant to so perform such obligation.
In this regard, Tenant acknowledges that it is fully apprised of the provisions
of Law relating to releases, and particularly to those provisions contained in
Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows:
"A general release does not extend to claims which the
creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the
time of executing the release, which if known by him must have
materially affected his settlement with the debtor."
Notwithstanding such statutory provision, and for the purpose of implementing a
full and complete release and discharge, Tenant hereby (i) waives the benefit of
such statutory provision and (ii) acknowledges that, subject to the exceptions
specifically set forth herein, the release and discharge set forth in this
paragraph is a full and complete settlement and release and discharge of all
claims and is intended to include in its effect, without limitation, all claims
which Tenant, as of the date hereof, does not know of or suspect to exist in its
favor.
10.2 TENANT'S INDEMNIFICATION OF LANDLORD. Tenant shall defend with competent
counsel satisfactory to Landlord any claims made or legal actions filed or
threatened against Landlord with respect to the violation of any Law, or the
death, bodily injury, personal injury, property damage, or interference with
contractual or property rights suffered by any third party occurring within the
Leased Premises or resulting from Tenant's use or occupancy of the Leased
Premises, the Building or the Outside Areas, or resulting from Tenant's
activities in or about the Leased Premises, the Building, the Outside Areas or
the Property, and Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord, Landlord's partners,
principals, members, employees, agents and contractors harmless from any loss
liability, penalties, or expense whatsoever (including any loss attributable to
vacant space which otherwise would have been leased, but for such activities)
resulting therefrom, except to the extent proximately caused by the active
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's default under this
Lease (after notice and opportunity to cure as specified in Paragraph 12.3).
This indemnity agreement shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of
this Lease.
ARTICLE 12

(b) Each policy of liability insurance required to be carried by Tenant
pursuant to this paragraph or actually carried by Tenant with respect to the

required by subparagraph (a)(vii) above, name Landlord, and such others as are
designated by Landlord, as additional insureds; (ii) shall be primary insurance

(30) days prior written notice to Landlord and (ii) shall contain a waiver

officers, employees, agents and contractors.
(c) Prior to the time Tenant or any of its contractors enters the
Leased Premises, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, with respect to each policy
of insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Article, a copy
of such policy (appropriately authenticated by the insurer as having been
issued, premium paid) or a certificate of the insurer certifying in form
satisfactory to Landlord that a policy has been issued, premium paid, providing
the coverage required by this Paragraph and containing the provisions specified
herein. With respect to each renewal or replacement of any such insurance, the
requirements of this Paragraph must be complied with not less than thirty days
prior to the expiration or cancellation of the policies being renewed or
replaced. Landlord may, at any time and from time to time, inspect and/or copy
any and all insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this
Article. If Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, advisor or counsel reasonably
determines at any time that the amount of coverage set forth in Paragraph 9.1(a)
for any policy of insurance Tenant is required to carry pursuant to this Article
is not adequate, then Tenant shall increase the amount of coverage for such
insurance to such greater amount as Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, advisor
or counsel reasonably deems adequate.

(a) Landlord shall maintain, as the minimum coverage required of it by

Landlord (and such others as Landlord may designate) against loss from physical

of the full actual replacement cost thereof and against loss of rents for a
period of not less than six months. Such fire and property damage insurance, at

commonly excluded from such coverage by Landlord's then property damage insurer;
(ii) may provide coverage for physical damage to the improvements so insured for
up to the entire full actual replacement cost thereof; (iii) may be endorsed to

property, inventory, and trade fixtures, or any modifications, alterations or
improvements made or constructed by Tenant to or within the Leased Premises.
16.
<PAGE> 17
Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such insurance at
competitive rates.
(b) Landlord shall maintain commercial general liability insurance
insuring Landlord (and such others as are designated by Landlord) against
liability for personal injury, bodily injury, death, and damage to property
occurring in, on or about, or resulting from the use or occupancy of the
Property, or any portion thereof, with combined single limit coverage of at
least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000). Landlord may carry such greater
coverage as Landlord or Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, advisor or counsel
may from time to time determine is reasonably necessary for the adequate
protection of Landlord and the Property.
(c) Landlord may maintain any other insurance which in the opinion of
its insurance broker, advisor or legal counsel is prudent in carry under the
given circumstances, provided such insurance is commonly carried by owners of
property similarly situated and operating under similar circumstances.
12.3 MUTUAL WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Landlord hereby releases Tenant, its
respective partners, principals, members, officers, agents, employees and
servants, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord and its respective partners,
principals, members, officers, agents, employees and servants, from any and all

the Leased Premises or the Property which is caused by or results from a peril
or event or happening which is covered by insurance required to be carried by
this Lease and in force at the time of the loss by the party sustaining such
loss; provided, however, that such waiver shall be effective only to the extent
permitted by the insurance covering such loss and to the extent such insurance
is not prejudiced thereby.
ARTICLE 14
DAMAGE TO LEASED PREMISES
14.1 LANDLORD'S DUTY TO RESTORE. If the Leased Premises, the Building or the
Outside Area are damaged by any peril after the Effective Date of this Lease,
Landlord shall restore the same, as and when required by this paragraph, unless
this Lease is terminated by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 10.3 or by Tenant
pursuant to Paragraph 10.4. If this Lease is not so terminated, then upon the
issuance of all necessary governmental permits, Landlord shall commence and
diligently prosecute to completion the restoration of the Leased Premises, the
Building or the Outside Area, as the case may be, to the extent then allowed by
law, to substantially the same condition in which it existed as of the Lease
Commencement Date. Landlord's obligation to restore shall be limited to the
improvements constructed by Landlord. Landlord shall have no obligation to
restore any alterations, modifications or improvements made by Tenant to the
Leased Premises or any of Tenant's personal property, inventory or trade
fixtures. Upon completion of the restoration by Landlord, Tenant shall forthwith
replace or fully repair all of Tenant's personal property, inventory, trade
fixtures and other improvements constructed by Tenant to like or similar
conditions as existed at the time immediately prior to such damage or
destruction.
14.2 INSURANCE PROCEEDS. All insurance proceeds available from the fire and
property damage insurance carried by Landlord shall be paid to and become the
property of Landlord. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to either Paragraph
10.3 or 10.4, all insurance proceeds available from insurance carried by Tenant
which cover loss of property that is Landlord's property or was paid for with
the Tenant Improvement Allowance (as set forth in the Work Letter) or was
installed or constructed by Landlord shall be paid to and become the property of
Landlord, and the remainder of such proceeds shall be paid to and become the
property of Tenant. If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to either Paragraph
10.3 or 10.4, all insurance proceeds available from insurance carried by Tenant
which cover loss to property that is Landlord's property shall be paid to and
become the property of Landlord, and all proceeds available from such insurance
which cover loss to property which would only become the property of Landlord
upon the termination of this Lease shall be paid to and remain the property of
Tenant. The determination of Landlord's property and Tenant's property shall be
made pursuant to Paragraph 6.2.
14.3 LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE. Landlord shall have the option to terminate
this Lease in the event any of the following occurs, which option may be
exercised only by delivery to Tenant of a written notice of election to
terminate within thirty days after the date of such damage or destruction:
(a) The Building is damaged by any peril covered by valid and
collectible insurance actually carried by Landlord and in force at the time of
such damage or destruction (an "insured peril") to such an extent that the
estimated cost to restore the Building exceeds the lesser of (i) the insurance
proceeds (less any deductible amount) available from insurance actually carried
by Landlord, or (ii) fifty percent of the then actual replacement cost thereof;
(b) The Building is damaged by an uninsured peril whose repair cost
exceeds ten percent (10%) of the replacement cost of the Building, which peril
Landlord was not required to insure against pursuant to the provisions of
Article 9 of this Lease.
(c) The Building is damaged by any peril and, because of the laws then
in force, the Building (i) cannot be restored at reasonable cost or (ii) if
restored, cannot be used for the same use being made thereof before such damage.
14.4 TENANT'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE. If the Leased Premises, the Building or the
Outside Area are damaged by any peril and Landlord does not elect to terminate
this Lease or is not entitled to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Article,
then as soon as reasonably practicable, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with the
written opinion of Landlord's architect or construction consultant as to when
the restoration work required of Landlord may be complete. Tenant
17.
<PAGE> 18
shall have the option to terminate this Lease in the event any of the following
occurs, which option may be exercised only by delivery to Landlord of a written
notice of election to terminate within twenty (20) days after Tenant receives
from Landlord the estimate of the time needed to complete such restoration:
(a) If the time estimated to substantially complete the restoration
exceeds twelve months from and after the date the architect's or construction
consultant's written opinion is delivered; or
(b) If the damage occurred within twelve months of the last day of the
Lease Term and the time estimated to substantially complete the restoration
exceeds one hundred eighty days from and after the date such restoration is
commenced.
14.4 TENANT'S WAIVER. Landlord and Tenant agree that the provisions of Paragraph
10.4 above, captioned "Tenant's Right To Terminate", are intended to supersede
and replace the provisions contained in California Civil Code, Section 1932,
Subdivision 2, and California Civil Code, Section 1934, and accordingly, Tenant
hereby waives the provisions of such Civil Code Sections and the provisions of
any successor Civil Code Sections or similar laws hereinafter enacted.
14.5 ABATEMENT OF RENT. In the event of damage to the Leased Premises which does
not result in the termination of this Lease, the Base Monthly Rent (and any
Additional Rent) shall be temporarily abated during the period of restoration in
proportion in the degree to which Tenant's use of the Leased Premises is
impaired by such damage.
ARTICLE 15
CONDEMNATION

below regarding temporary takings, Tenant shall have the option to terminate
this Lease if, as a result of any taking, (i) all of the Leased Premises is
taken, or (ii) twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Leased Premises is taken
and the part of the Leased Premises that remains cannot, within a reasonable
period of time, be made reasonably suitable for the continued operation of
Tenant's business. Tenant must exercise such option within a reasonable period

of that portion of the Leased Premises that is condemned is taken by the
condemnor or (ii) the date Tenant vacated the Leased Premises.

Premises is taken, (ii) twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Leased Premises
is taken and the part of the Leased Premises that remains cannot, within a
reasonable period of time, be made reasonably suitable for the continued
operation of Tenant's business, or (iii) because of the laws then in force, the
Leased Premises may not be used for the same use being made before such taking,
whether or not restored as required by Paragraph 11.3 below. Any such option to
terminate by Landlord must be exercised within a reasonable period of time, to
be effective as of the date possession is taken by the condemnor.
15.3 RESTORATION. If any part of the Leased Premises or the Building is taken
and this Lease is not terminated, then Landlord shall, to the extent not
prohibited by laws then in force, repair any damage occasioned thereby to the
remainder thereof to a condition reasonably suitable for Tenant's continued
operations and otherwise, to the extent practicable, in the manner and to the
extent provided in Paragraph 10.1.
15.4 TEMPORARY TAKING. If a portion of the Leased Premises is temporarily taken
for a period of one year or less and such period does not extend beyond the
Lease Expiration Date, this Lease shall remain in effect. If any portion of the
Leased Premises is temporarily taken for a period which exceeds one year or
which extends beyond the Lease Expiration Date, then the rights of Landlord and
Tenant shall be determined in accordance with Paragraphs 11.1 and 11.2 above.
15.5 DIVISION OF CONDEMNATION AWARD. Any award made for any taking of the
Property, the Building, or the Leased Premises, or any portion thereof, shall
belong to and be paid to Landlord, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all of
its right, title and interest in any such award; provided, however, that Tenant
shall be entitled to receive any portion of the award that is made specifically
(i) for the taking of personal property, inventory or trade fixtures belonging
to Tenant, (ii) for the interruption of Tenant's business or its moving costs,
or (iii) for the value of any leasehold improvements installed and paid for by
Tenant. The rights of Landlord and Tenant regarding any condemnation shall be
determined as provided in this Article, and each party hereby waives the
provisions of Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, and
the provisions of any similar law hereinafter enacted, allowing either party to
petition the Supreme Court to terminate this Lease and/or otherwise allocate
condemnation awards between Landlord and Tenant in the event of a taking of the
Leased Premises.
15.6 ABATEMENT OF RENT. In the event of a taking of the Leased Premises which
does not result in a termination of this Lease (other than a temporary taking),
then, as of the date possession is taken by the condemning authority, the Base
Monthly Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion that the area of that part
of the Leased Premises so taken (less any addition to the area of the Leased
Premises by reason of any reconstruction) bears to the area of the Leased
Premises immediately prior to such taking.
15.7 TAKING DEFINED. The term "taking" or "taken" as used in this Article 11
shall mean any transfer or conveyance of all or any portion of the Property to a
public or quasi-public agency or other entity having the power of eminent
18.
<PAGE> 19
domain pursuant to or as a result of the exercise of such power by such an
agency, including any inverse condemnation and/or any sale or transfer by
Landlord of all or any portion of the Property to such an agency under threat of
condemnation or the exercise of such power. Landlord and Tenant shall each give
the other prompt notice after receiving notice of a proposed taking.

limiting Landlord's right to indemnification as provided in Article 8.2,
Landlord shall have the following remedies, in addition to all other rights and
remedies provided by law or otherwise provided in this Lease, to which Landlord
may resort cumulatively, or in the alternative:
(a) Landlord may, at Landlord's election, keep this Lease in effect and
enforce, by an action at law or in equity, all of its rights and remedies under
this Lease including, without limitation, (i) the right to recover the rent and
other sums as they become due by appropriate legal action, (ii) the right to
make payments required by Tenant, or perform Tenant's obligations and be
reimbursed by Tenant for the cost thereof with interest at the then maximum rate
of interest not prohibited by law from the date the sum is paid by Landlord
until Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant, and (iii) the remedies of injunctive
relief and specific performance to prevent Tenant from violating the terms of
this Lease and/or to compel Tenant to perform its obligations under this Lease,
as the case may be.
(b) Landlord may, at Landlord's election, terminate this Lease by
giving Tenant written notice of termination, in which event this Lease shall
terminate on the date set forth for termination in such notice, in which event
Tenant shall immediately surrender the Leased Premises to Landlord, and if
Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which
it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession
of the Leased Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may
be occupying the Leased Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for

any claim against Tenant for damages previously accrued or then or thereafter
accruing. In no event shall any one or more of the following actions by
Landlord, in the absence of a written election by Landlord to terminate this
Lease constitute a termination of this Lease:
(i) Appointment of a receiver or keeper in order to protect
Landlord's interest hereunder;
(ii) Consent to any subletting of the Leased Premises or assignment
of this Lease by Tenant, whether pursuant to the provisions hereof or otherwise;
or
(iii) Any action taken by Landlord or its partners, principals,
members, officers, agents, employees, or servants, which is intended to mitigate
the adverse effects of any breach of this Lease by Tenant, including, without
limitation, any action taken to maintain and preserve the Leased Premises on any
action taken to relet the Leased Premises or any portion thereof for the account
at Tenant and in the name of Tenant.
(c) In the event Tenant breaches this Lease and abandons the Leased
Premises, Landlord may terminate this Lease, but this Lease shall not terminate
unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice of termination. If Landlord does not
terminate this Lease by giving written notice of termination, Landlord may
enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right and
remedies provided by California Civil Code Section 1951.4 ("lessor may continue
lease in effect after lessee's breach and abandonment and recover rent as it
becomes due, if lessee has right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable
limitations"), as in effect on the Effective Date of this Lease.
(d) In the event Landlord terminates this Lease, Landlord shall be
entitled, at Landlord's election, to the rights and remedies provided in
California Civil Code Section 1951.2, as in effect on the Effective Date of this
Lease. For purposes of computing damages pursuant to Section 1951.2, an interest
rate equal to the maximum rate of interest then not prohibited by law shall be
used where permitted. Such damages shall include, without limitation:
(i) The worth at the time of the award of the unpaid rent which had
been earned at the time of termination;
(ii) 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 rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided,
computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve
Bank of San Francisco, at the time of award plus one percent; and
(iii) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all
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, including without limitation, the following: (i) expenses for
cleaning, repairing or restoring the Leased Premises, (ii) expenses for
altering, remodeling or otherwise improving the Leased Premises for the purpose
of reletting, including removal of existing leasehold improvements and/or
installation of additional leasehold improvements (regardless of how the same is
funded, including reduction of rent, a direct payment or allowance to a new
tenant, or otherwise), (iii) broker's fees allocable to the remainder of the
term of this Lease, advertising costs and other expenses of reletting the Leased
Premises; (iv) costs of carrying and maintaining the Leased Premises, such as
taxes, insurance premiums, utility charges and security precautions, (v)
expenses incurred in removing, disposing of and/or storing any of Tenant's
personal property, inventory or trade fixtures remaining therein; (vi)
reasonable attorney's fees, expert witness fees, court costs and other
reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord (but not limited to taxable costs) in
retaking possession of the Leased Premises, establishing damages hereunder, and
releasing the Leased Premises; and (vii) any other expenses, costs or damages
otherwise incurred or suffered as a result of Tenant's default.
16.2 LANDLORD'S DEFAULT AND TENANT'S REMEDIES. In the event Landlord fails to
perform its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall nevertheless not be in
default under the terms of this Lease until such time as Tenant shall have first
given Landlord written notice specifying the nature of such failure to perform
its obligations, and then only after Landlord shall have had thirty (30) days
following its receipt of such notice within which to perform such obligations;
provided that, if longer than thirty (30) days is
