(iv) 1. PREMISES. 1.1 Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant the Building and that -------- portion of the Lot (or all thereof if the Building constitutes the material improvement thereon) upon which the same is situated (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Premises") as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto. --------- 1.2 Reserved Rights. Landlord reserves the right to enter the Premises --------------- upon reasonable notice to Tenant (except in case of an emergency) and/or to undertake the following: inspect the Premises and/or the performance by Tenant of the terms and conditions hereof; grant easements on the Project, dedicate for public use portions thereof and record covenants, conditions and restrictions ("CC&R's") affecting the Project and/or amendments to existing CC&R's which do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises; change the name of the Project; and, during the last nine (9) months of the Term, show the Premises to prospective tenants. 2. TERM. ---- 2.1 Lease Term and Commencement Date. The Term of the Lease shall be for a -------------------------------- period of sixty (60) months, subject to extension in accordance with Section 20 below. The Term shall commence (the "Commencement Date") on the first day of the first full calendar month following the Possession Date (as defined in Section 2.2.2), except that if the Possession Date occurs on the first day of a month, that day shall also be the Commencement Date. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, upon request by Landlord, a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C acknowledging (i) the Commencement Date (and, --------- if requested, the Possession Date and Rent Commencement Date, as defined below), (ii) the final square footage of the Premises, and (iii) Tenant's acceptance of the Premises. 2.2 Possession. ---------- 2.2.1 Landlord's Possession. Tenant acknowledges that the Premises --------------------- are currently occupied by an existing tenant thereof and that Landlord's delivery of possession of the Premises is contingent upon such tenant vacating the Premises. Landlord presently anticipates that the current tenant will vacate the Premises and restore possession thereof to Landlord on or about September 1 1996 and Landlord shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover possession on such date or as soon as practicable thereafter. In the event that Landlord does not recover possession of the Premises on or before such date, as a result of the failure of the existing tenant to vacate the Premises on or before such date, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability therefor and such failure shall not affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of either party hereunder, provided, however, that if the existing tenant fails to vacate the Premises on or before November 1, 1996 (subject to Force Majeure events), either Landlord or Tenant may, at its option, by written notice to the other party given within ten (10) days thereafter, terminate this Lease, in which event Landlord shall return to Tenant all funds paid in advance and the Parties shall be discharged from all further obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 2.2, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay Base Rent for its use and occupancy of the Premises until the Rent Commencement Date, as defined in Section 3.1. 2.2.2 Tender of Possession to Tenant. Landlord shall tender ------------------------------ possession of the Premises to Tenant as soon as practicable following the date on which Landlord receives possession thereof. Tenant's possession and use of the Premises from the date on which Landlord tenders possession thereof to Tenant (the "Possession Date") to the Commencement Date (the "Early Possession Period") shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease. During the Early Possession Period, Tenant shall (i) arrange for and pay for all utilities delivered to the Premises (ii) arrange for, and maintain in effect, the insurance coverages required to be obtained by Tenant pursuant to Section 7.2 of this Lease, (iii) pay to Landlord as and when due, all sums payable to Landlord hereunder, including, without limitation. amounts payable for Real Property Taxes (as defined in Section 5) and insurance premiums, and (iv) perform all other obligations required by Tenant pursuant to this Lease. 2.2.3 Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall arrange for the ------------------- construction of certain Tenant improvements (as defined in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B) in accordance with and subject to the terms of the --------- Work Letter. Landlord shall commence the construction of the Tenant improvements and diligently pursue such construction to completion as soon as reasonably practicable following the Possession Date. Tenant's use of the Premises shall not unreasonably interfere with Landlord's contractor(s) or otherwise impede the completion of the Tenant Improvements. The construction of the Tenant improvements shall not delay the occurrence of the Commencement Date. Tenant has determined that the Premises are acceptable for Tenant's use and Tenant acknowledges that, except as set forth in the Work Letter, neither Landlord nor any broker or agent has made any representations or warranties in connection with the physical condition of the Premises or their fitness for Tenant's use upon which Tenant has relied directly or indirectly for any purpose. 2.2.4 Substantial Completion. The Tenant improvements shall be ---------------------- deemed to be "Substantially Complete" on the date on which Landlord files or causes to be filed with the City in which the Premises are located (if required) and 1. delivers to Tenant an architect's notice of substantial completion, or similar written notice that the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Complete. As used herein, the term "Substantially Complete" means that the Tenant Improvements have been constructed in substantial compliance with the applicable plans and specifications, except only minor "punchlist" items. Landlord shall promptly complete such punchlist items to the reasonable satisfaction of Tenant. 3. RENT. ---- 3.1 Rent. ---- 3.1.1 Tenant's obligation to pay Base Rent shall commence on the first (1st) calendar day following the date on which the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Complete and possession of the Premises has been tendered to Tenant (the "Rent Commencement Date"). Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at Landlord's Address for Payment of Rent designated in the Basic Lease Information, or at such other address as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing to Tenant for the payment of Rent, the Base Rent, without notice, demand, offset or deduction, in advance, on the first day of each calendar month. Upon the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the first month's Base Rent. Base Rent for the period from the Rent Commencement Date to the first day of the next calendar month shall be prorated on a per diem basis. All sums other than Base Rent which Tenant is obligated to pay under this Lease shall be deemed to be additional rent due hereunder, whether or not such sums are designated "additional rent." The term "Rent" means the Base Rent and all additional rent payable hereunder. 3.1.2 As set forth in the Basic Lease Information, the initial Base Rent shall be the sum of $74,800.00 per month which is calculated on the basis of $0.34 per square foot. Tenant acknowledges that the Premises contains approximately 220,000 rentable square feet of space. The parties acknowledge that such measurement is an estimate and that the Base Rent shall not be adjusted on the basis of a difference in the actual number of rentable square feet. 3.2 Late Charge and Interest. The late payment of any Rent will cause ------------------------ Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection costs and processing and accounting expenses and increased debt service ("Delinquency Costs"). If Landlord has not received any installment of Rent within ten (l0) days after such amount is due, Tenant shall pay a late charge of five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount, which is agreed to represent a reasonable estimate of the Delinquency Costs incurred by Landlord. In addition, all such delinquent amounts shall bear interest from the date such amount was due until paid in full at a rate per annum ("Applicable Interest Rate") equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum interest rate permitted by law or (b) five percent (5%) above the rate publicly announced by Bank of America, N.A. (or if Bank of America, N.A. ceases to exist, the largest bank then headquartered in the State of California ("Bank") as its "Reference Rate." If the use of the announced Reference Rate is discontinued by the Bank, then the term Reference Rate shall mean the announced rate charged by the Bank which is, from time to time, substituted for the Reference Rate. Landlord and Tenant recognize that the damage which Landlord shall suffer as a result of Tenant's failure to pay such amounts is difficult to ascertain and said late charge and interest are the best estimate of the damage which Landlord shall suffer in the event of late payment If a late charge becomes payable for any three (3) installments of Rent within any twelve (l2) month period, then the Rent shall automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance. 3.3 Intentionally Omitted. --------------------- 4. UTILITIES. Tenant shall make all arrangements for and shall pay all charges --------- for heat, water, gas, electricity, telephone and any other utilities used on or provided to the Premises including, without limitation, paying any deposits and "hook up charges." Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for interruption in or curtailment of any utility service, nor shall any such interruption or curtailment constitute constructive eviction or grounds for rental abatement. The cost of maintaining and repairing the plumbing, electrical distribution, and mechanical systems, and other utility installations shall be borne by the parties as provided in Section 8. 5. TAXES. ----- 5.1 Real Property Taxes. Landlord shall pay to the proper taxing ------------------- authorities as the same become due all Real Property Taxes applicable to the Premises, subject to reimbursement by Tenant as provided below. The term "Real Property Taxes" shall be the sum of the following: all real property taxes, 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 and traffic charges, housing fund assessments, open space charges, child care fees, school, sewer and parking fees or any other assessments, levies, fees, executions or charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen (including fees "in-lieu" of any such tax or assessment) which are assessed, levied, charged, conferred or imposed by any public authority upon the Premises (or any real property comprising any portion thereof) or its operations, together with all taxes, assessments or other fees imposed by any public authority upon or measured by any Rent or other charges payable hereunder, including any gross receipts tax or excise tax levied by any governmental authority with respect to receipt of rental income, 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 documentary transfer taxes upon this transaction or 2. any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest in the Premises, together with any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax previously included within the aforesaid definition or any additional tax the nature of which was previously included within the aforesaid definition, together with the costs and expenses (including attorneys and expert witness fees and costs) of challenging any of the foregoing or seeking the reduction in or abatement, redemption or return of any of the foregoing, but only to the extent of any such reduction, abatement, redemption or return. Nothing contained in this Lease shall require Tenant to pay any franchise, corporate, estate or inheritance tax of Landlord, or any income, profits or revenue tax or charge upon the net income of Landlord. 5.1.1 Reimbursement By Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an ----------------------- amount equal to the Real Property Taxes then due within fifteen (15) days after delivery to Tenant by Landlord of an invoice for the same, together with a copy of the corresponding tax bill. Landlord may, at Landlord's option, deliver statements from different taxing authorities at different times or deliver all such statements at one time; provided however, that Landlord shall not change the method of invoicing Tenant for Real Property Taxes more than one (1) time in each three (3) year period and, in each case, shall give Tenant thirty (30) days notice prior to any change in such method of invoicing Tenant. In addition, Landlord may elect to collect such Real Property Taxes from Tenant in advance, on a monthly or quarterly basis, based upon Landlord's reasonable estimate of such Real Property Taxes. If the amount of monthly or quarterly payments for estimated Real Property Taxes received by Landlord from Tenant is more or less than the actual Real Property Taxes due, an appropriate adjustment shall be made by Landlord and Tenant. 5.1.2 Partial Years. Real Property Taxes for partial tax fiscal ------------- years, if any, falling within the Term, shall be prorated. Tenant's obligations for Real Property Taxes for the last full or partial year of the Term shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 5.2 Personal Property Taxes. Prior to delinquency, Tenant shall pay all ----------------------- taxes and assessments levied upon trade fixtures, alterations, additions, improvements, inventories and other personal property located and/or installed on the Premises by Tenant; and Tenant shall provide Landlord copies of receipts for payment of all such taxes and assessments. To the extent any such taxes are not separately assessed or billed to Tenant, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof as invoiced by Landlord. 6. TRIPLE NET LEASE. It is intended that this Lease be a "triple net lease." ---------------- and that the Rent to be paid hereunder by Tenant will be received by Landlord without any deduction or offset whatsoever by Tenant, foreseeable or unforeseeable. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure, incur any obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with this Lease or the ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord monthly, as additional rent, for all costs and fees reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with the management of this Lease and the Premises including the cost of those services which are customarily performed by a property management services company. 7. INSURANCE. --------- 7.1 Landlord. Landlord shall maintain insurance insuring the Building -------- against fire and extended coverage (including, if Landlord elects, "all risk" coverage, earthquake/volcanic action, flood and/or surface water insurance) for the full replacement cost of the Building, with deductibles and the form and endorsements of such coverage as selected by Landlord, together with rental abatement insurance against loss of Rent in an amount equal to the amount of Rent for a period of at least twelve (12) months commencing on the date of loss. Landlord may also carry such other insurance as Landlord may deem prudent or advisable, including, without limitation, liability insurance in such amounts and on such terms as Landlord shall determine. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the premiums then due within fifteen (15) days after delivery to Tenant by Landlord of an invoice for any such premiums. Landlord may, at Landlord's option, elect to collect such premiums from Tenant in advance, on a monthly or quarterly basis, based upon Landlord's reasonable estimate of such premiums. If the amount of monthly or quarterly payments for estimated premiums received by Landlord from Tenant are more or less than the actual premiums due, an appropriate adjustment shall be made by Landlord and Tenant. 7.2 Tenant. Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, obtain and keep in force at ------ all times the following insurance: 7.2.1 Commercial General Liability Insurance (Occurrence Form). A ------------------------------------------------------- policy of commercial general liability insurance (occurrence form) having a combined single limit of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000.000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) aggregate per location if Tenant has multiple locations, providing coverage for, among other things, blanket contractual liability, premises, products/completed operations and personal and advertising injury coverage, with deletion of (a) the exclusion for operations within fifty (50) feet of a railroad track (railroad protective liability), if applicable, and (b) the exclusion for explosion, collapse or underground hazard, if applicable, and, if necessary, Tenant shall provide for restoration of the aggregate limit; 3. 7.2.2 Automobile Liability Insurance.

Each certificate shall expressly provide that such policies shall not be cancelable or otherwise subject to modification except after sixty (60) days prior written notice to the parties named as additional insured in this Lease (except in the case of cancellation for nonpayment of premium in which case cancellation shall not take effect until at least (10) days' notice has been given to Landlord).

The limits of insurance maintained by Tenant shall not limit Tenant's liability under this Lease. 7.3.5 Mutual Waiver of Subrogation. Tenant waives any right to ---------------------------- recover against Landlord for claims for damages to Tenant's Property to the extent covered, or required by this Lease to be covered by insurance.

So long as this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall have the right to remedy any default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises, to cause a receiver to be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to add to the Rent payable hereunder all of Landlord's reasonable costs in so doing, with interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure. 14.3 Cumulative. Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein or ---------- now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and shall not preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of Rent; and Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue other remedies. 15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign, sublet or otherwise ------------------------- transfer, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, the Premises or any part thereof without Landlord's prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The merger of Tenant with any other entity or the transfer of any controlling or managing ownership or beneficial interest in Tenant, or the assignment of a substantial portion of the assets of Tenant, whether or not located at the Premises, shall constitute an assignment hereunder. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet any or all of the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice thereof with copies of all related documents and agreements associated with the assignment or sublease, including without limitation, the financial statements of any proposed assignee or subtenant, forty-five (45) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the assignment or sublease. Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the review of such documentation plus an administrative fee of Three Hundred Fifty Dollars ($350.00) for each proposed transfer. Landlord shall have a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice and all related documents and agreements to notify Tenant in writing of Landlord's approval or disapproval of the proposed assignment or sublease. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant in writing of such election, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such assignment or subletting. This Lease may not be assigned by operation of law. Any purported assignment or subletting contrary to the provisions hereof shall be void and shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. If Tenant receives rent or other consideration for any such transfer in excess of the Rent, or in case of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such Rent that is fairly allocable to such portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments required hereunder are appropriately taken into account, Tenant shall pay landlord fifty percent (50%) of the difference between each such payment of rent or other consideration and the Rent required hereunder. During any period in which an Event of Default (as defined in Section 14.1) remains uncured, Landlord may, without waiving any other rights or remedies, collect rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved and apportion any excess rent so collected in accordance with the terms of the preceding sentence. Tenant shall continue to be liable as a principal and not as a guarantor or surety to the same extent as though no assignment or subletting had been made. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this Lease or amendments or modifications to the Lease by assignees of Tenant without notifying Tenant or any successor of Tenant and without obtaining their consent. No permitted transfer shall be effective until there has been delivered to Landlord a counterpart of the transfer instrument in which the transferee agrees to be and remain jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the payment of Rent pertaining to the Premises and for the performance of all the terms and provisions of this Lease relating thereto arising on or after the date of the transfer. Subject to the provisions hereof and provided Landlord receives thirty (30) days prior written notice and a true and correct copy of the assignment instrument. Landlord hereby consents to the assignment of Tenant's interest in and to this Lease to any wholly owned subsidiary of Tenant. 16. ESTOPPEL ATTORNMENT AND SUBORDINATION. ------------------------------------- l6.l Estoppel. Within ten (l0) days after request by Landlord, Tenant -------- shall deliver an Estoppel certificate duly executed (and acknowledged if required by any lender), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, or in such --------- other form as may be acceptable to the lender, which form may include some or all of the provisions contained in Exhibit G, to any proposed mortgagee, --------- purchaser or Landlord. Tenant's failure to deliver said statement in such time period shall be an Event of Default hereunder and shall be conclusive upon Tenant that (a) this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord; (b) there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance and Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against Rent hereunder, and (c) no more than one month's Base Rent has been paid in advance. If any financier should require that this Lease be amended (other than in the description of the Premises, the Term, the Permitted Use, the Rent or as will substantially, materially and adversely affect the rights of Tenant), Landlord shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, which notice shall be accompanied by a Lease supplement embodying such amendments. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the receipt of Landlord's notice, meet and confer with Landlord in good faith with respect to such proposed amendments. l6.2 Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all ------------- ground leases and the lien of all mortgages and deeds of trust which now or hereafter affect the Premises or the Project or Landlord's interest therein, and all amendments thereto, all without the necessity of Tenant's executing further instruments to effect such subordination. If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord's request whatever documentation that may 11. reasonably be required to further effect the provisions of this paragraph. With respect to any new mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Premises after the date of this Lease, Landlord shall use its best efforts to obtain from such mortgagee or beneficiary under the deed of trust a non-disturbance agreement in such party's usual and customary form protecting the interest of Tenant hereunder. l6.3 Attornment. In the event of a foreclosure proceeding, the exercise ---------- of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust or the termination of a ground lease, Tenant shall, if requested, attorn to the purchaser thereupon and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease; provided, however, Tenant's obligation to attorn to such purchaser shall be conditioned upon Tenant's receipt of a non-disturbance agreement protecting the interest of Tenant hereunder. 17.

The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by ------ Tenant or a mutual cancellation thereof or a termination by Landlord shall not work a merger and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate all or any existing subtenancies or may, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subtenancies. 17.1.12 Headings.

Tenant shall remove all such signs and graphics prior to the termination of this Lease. Such installations and removals shall be made in such manner as to avoid injury or defacement of the Premises; and Tenant shall repair any injury or defacement, including without limitation, discoloration caused by such installation or removal. 17.3 Waiver. No waiver of any default or breach hereunder shall be ------ implied from any omission to take action on account thereof, notwithstanding any custom and practice or course of dealing. No waiver by either party of any provision under this Lease shall be effective unless in writing and signed by such party.

The obligations of Landlord under this Lease ----------------------- are not personal obligations of the individual partners, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Landlord; and Tenant shall look solely to the Premises for satisfaction of any liability of Landlord and shall not look to other assets of Landlord nor seek recourse against the assets of the individual partners, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Landlord. Whenever Landlord transfers its interest, Landlord shall be automatically released from further performance under this Lease and from all further liabilities and expenses hereunder and the transferee of Landlord's interest shall assume all liabilities and obligations of Landlord hereunder from the date of such transfer. 17.6 Notices.

If Tenant holds over the Premises or any part ------------ thereof after expiration of the Term, such holding over shall constitute a month-to-month tenancy, at a rent equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Base Rent in effect immediately prior to such holding over and shall otherwise be on all the other terms and conditions of this Lease. This paragraph shall not be construed as Landlord's permission for Tenant to hold over.

If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss or liability resulting from or arising out of Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises, including, but not limited to, any amounts required to be paid to any tenant or prospective tenant who was to have occupied the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and any related attorneys' fees and brokerage commissions. l7.9.2 Surrender.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Lease as of the date set forth above. "Landlord" "Tenant" CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, MOHAWK INDUSTRIES. INC., a Delaware corporation a Georgia corporation By: /s/ [SIGNATURE ILLEGIBLE] By: /s/ [SIGNATURE ILLEGIBLE] ---------------------------- ---------------------------- Its: VP Its: PRESIDENT --------------------------- ------------------------ Date: 12-4-95 Date: 11-28-95 --------------------------- ------------------------ ADDENDUM TO LEASE ----------------- THIS ADDENDUM TO LEASE ("Addendum") is attached to and constitutes an integral part of the Lease between CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, as Landlord, and MOHAWK INDUSTRIES, INC., as Tenant. The terms of this Addendum shall be incorporated in the Lease for all purposes. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of the Lease and the provisions of this Addendum, this Addendum shall control. THE FOLLOWING NEW SECTIONS ARE HEREBY ADDED TO THE LEASE WHICH STATE IN THEIR ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS: 18. Force Majeure Event. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Force Majeure ------------------- Event" shall mean and include the following: any delay caused by any action, inaction, order, ruling, moratorium, regulation, statute, condition or other decision of any governmental agency having jurisdiction over any portion of the Project, over the construction anticipated to occur thereon or over any uses thereof, or by fire, flood, inclement weather, strikes, lockouts or other labor or industrial disturbance (whether or not on the part of agents or employees of either party hereto engaged in the construction of the Premises), civil disturbance, order of any government, court or regulatory body claiming jurisdiction or otherwise, act of public enemy, war, riot, sabotage, blockade, embargo, failure or inability to secure materials, supplies or labor through ordinary sources by reason of shortages or priority, discovery of hazardous or toxic materials, earthquake, or other natural disaster, or any cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control (excluding financial inability) of the party whose performance is required, or any of its contractors or other representatives, whether or not similar to any of the causes hereinabove stated. 19. CPI Adjustment. Effective as of the first day of the thirty-first (31st) -------------- month of the Term (the "CPI Adjustment Date"), the Base Rent in effect immediately before the CPI Adjustment Date shall be increased, in accordance with the percentage increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index, to an amount which is equal to the product of (i) the Index (as hereinafter defined) for the third month preceding the CPI Adjustment Date, multiplied by (ii) the initial Base Rent set forth in the Basic Lease Information, divided by (iii) the Basic Index (as hereinafter defined); provided, however, in no event shall the Base Rent (as adjusted) in effect immediately prior to the CPI Adjustment Date be decreased, nor shall it be increased as a result of a CPI adjustment by more than six percent (6%) per Lease Year, compounded annually. The "Index" shall mean the Consumer Price Index, All Items, 1982-1984 = 100, All Urban Consumers, for the Los Angeles/Riverside/Anaheim Area, as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, or its successor index, and the "Basic Index" shall mean the Index published for the third month preceding the Commencement Date.

As soon as such calculation is made, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord the amount of any underpayment of Base Rent for the month(s) that may have elapsed. In the event the compilation or publication of the Index shall be transferred to any other governmental department, bureau or agency or shall be discontinued, the index most nearly the same as the Index shall be used to make such calculation. 15. 20. Options to Extend. ----------------- 20.1 Terms of Options. Provided (i) Tenant is not in default under the ---------------- terms of this Lease at the time each renewal option is exercised or at the commencement of the applicable Extension Term (as hereinafter defined), (ii) Tenant is occupying at least ninety percent (90%) of the Premises, including any expansion space, and (iii) Landlord has not given more than two (2) notices of default in any twelve (12) month period for nonpayment of monetary obligations, Tenant shall have two (2) options to renew this Lease for an additional period of sixty (60) months each (the "First and Second Extension Terms").

Base Rent shall be increased (but not decreased) as set forth below. There shall be no additional extension terms beyond the Extension Terms set forth herein. Tenant must exercise its options to extend this Lease by giving Landlord written notice of its election to do so not less than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the end of the initial Term, or the First Extension Term, as applicable. Any notice not given in a timely manner shall be void, and Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its extension rights.

Effective as of the first day ------------------------------------- of the First Extension Term, and on the first day of the thirty-first (31st) month thereafter (the "First Extension CPI Adjustment Date(s)"), the monthly Base Rent shall be increased in accordance with the percentage increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index, calculated in the manner set forth in Section 19; provided, however, in no event shall the Base Rent (as adjusted) in effect immediately prior to the applicable First Extension CPI Adjustment Date be decreased, nor shall it be increased as a result of a CPI adjustment by more than six percent (6%) per Lease Year, compounded annually. 20.3 Base Rent During Second Extension Term. The monthly Base Rent payable -------------------------------------- for the first thirty (30) months of the Second Extension Term shall be increased (but not decreased) to 98% of the fair market rental rate ("Market Rent") to be determined as follows: 20.3.1 Agreement on Base Rent. Landlord and Tenant shall have thirty ---------------------- (30) days after Landlord receives the exercise notice in which to agree on the Base Rent during the Second Extension Term. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 20.3 to the contrary, in no event shall the Base Rent for the Second Extension Term be less than the Base Rent in effect immediately prior to the Second Extension Term. 20.3.2 Appraisal. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the --------- Base Rent for the Second Extension Term within such thirty (30) day period, then within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the thirty (30) day period, each party, by giving notice to the other party, shall appoint a real estate appraiser who is a current member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, with at least five (5) years of experience appraising building space comparable to the Premises in the city and county where the Premises is located to determine the Market Rent. Market Rent shall mean the monthly amount per rentable square foot in the Premises that a willing, non-equity new tenant would pay and a willing landlord would accept at arm's length for space in a comparable building or buildings, with comparable tenant improvements, in a comparable location, giving appropriate consideration to monthly rental rates per rentable square foot, the presence or absence of rent escalation clauses such as operating expense and tax pass-throughs, length of lease term, size and location of premises being leased and other 16. generally applicable terms and conditions of tenancy for a similar building or buildings. If the two (2) appraisers are unable to agree on the Market Rent for the Second Extension Term within twenty (20) days, they shall select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications stated in this Section within five (5) days after the last day the two (2) appraisers are given to set the Market Rent for the Second Extension Term. The third appraiser, however selected, shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either party. Within twenty (20) days after the selection of the third appraiser, a majority of the appraisers shall set the Market Rent for the Second Extension Term. If a majority of the appraisers is unable to set the Market Rent within the twenty (20) day period, the two (2) closest appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by two (2). The resulting quotient shall be the Market Rent for the first thirty (30) months of the Second Extension Term. Each party shall be responsible for the costs, charges and fees of the appraiser appointed by that party plus one-half of the cost of the third appraiser. 20.3.3 Amendment of Lease. Immediately after the Base Rent is ------------------ determined pursuant to this Section 20.3, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease stating the new Base Rent in effect. 20.3.4 Base Rent Increase During Second Extension Term. Effective ----------------------------------------------- as of the first day of the thirty-first (31st) month of the Second Extension Term (the "Second Extension CPI Adjustment Date"), the monthly Base Rent shall be increased in accordance with the percentage increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index, calculated in the manner set forth in Section 19; except that the Index shall be multiplied by the monthly Base Rent payable during the first thirty (30) months of the Second Extension Term, and the Basic Index shall mean the Index published for the third month preceding the commencement of the Second Extension Term; provided, however, in no event shall the Base Rent in effect after the Second Extension CPI Adjustment Date be less than the Base Rent in effect immediately preceding the Second Extension CPI Adjustment Date.

If said Exhibit is not attached, the Space Plan shall be prepared by Landlord and submitted to Tenant for approval, which approval shall be given within five (5) days following receipt thereof, and evidenced by Tenant's signature thereon.

The Change Order Cost shall include all costs associated with the Change Order, including, without limitation, architectural fees and construction costs, as conclusively determined by the Architect and the General Contractor, respectively, together with a five percent (5%) fee of these costs as reimbursement for the expense of administration and coordination of such Change Order by Landlord.

(iv) 1. PREMISES. -------- 1.1 Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant the Building and that -------- portion of the Lot (or all thereof if the Building constitutes the material improvement thereon) upon which the same is situated (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Premises") as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto. --------- 1.2 Reserved Rights. Landlord reserves the right to enter the Premises --------------- upon reasonable notice to Tenant (except in case of an emergency) and/or to undertake the following: inspect the Premises and/or the performance by Tenant of the terms and conditions hereof; grant easements on the Project, dedicate for public use portions thereof and record covenants, conditions and restrictions ("CC&R's") affecting the Project and/or amendments to existing CC&R's which do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises; change the name of the Project; and, during the last nine (9) months of the Term, show the Premises to prospective tenants. 2. TERM. ---- 2.1 Lease Term and Commencement Date. The Term of the Lease shall be for a -------------------------------- period of sixty (60) months, subject to extension in accordance with Section 20 below. The Term shall commence (the "Commencement Date") on the first day of the first full calendar month following the Possession Date (as defined in Section 2.2.2), except that if the Possession Date occurs on the first day of a month, that day shall also be the Commencement Date. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, upon request by Landlord, a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C acknowledging (i) the Commencement Date (and, --------- if requested, the Possession Date and Rent Commencement Date, as defined below), (ii) the final square footage of the Premises, and (iii) Tenant's acceptance of the Premises. 2.2 Possession. ---------- 2.2.1 Landlord's Possession. Tenant acknowledges that the Premises --------------------- are currently occupied by an existing tenant thereof and that Landlord's delivery of possession of the Premises is contingent upon such tenant vacating the Premises. Landlord presently anticipates that the current tenant will vacate the Premises and restore possession thereof to Landlord on or about September 1, 1996 and Landlord shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover possession on such date or as soon as practicable thereafter. In the event that Landlord does not recover possession of the Premises on or before such date, as a result of the failure of the existing tenant to vacate the Premises on or before such date, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability therefor and such failure shall not affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of either party hereunder, provided, however, that if the existing tenant fails to vacate the Premises on or before November 1, 1996 (subject to Force Majeure events), either Landlord or Tenant may, at its option, by written notice to the other party given within ten (10) days thereafter, terminate this Lease, in which event Landlord shall return to Tenant all funds paid in advance and the Parties shall be discharged from all further obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 2.2, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay Base Rent for its use and occupancy of the Premises until the Rent Commencement Date, as defined in Section 3.1. 2.2.2 Tender of Possession to Tenant. Landlord shall tender ------------------------------ possession of the Premises to Tenant as soon as practicable following the date on which Landlord receives possession thereof. Tenant's possession and use of the Premises from the date, on which Landlord tenders possession thereof to Tenant (the "Possession Date") to the Commencement Date (the "Early Possession Period") shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease. During the Early Possession Period, Tenant shall (i) arrange for and pay for all utilities delivered to the Premises, (ii) arrange for, and maintain in effect, the insurance coverages required to be obtained by Tenant pursuant to Section 7.2 of this Lease, (iii) pay to Landlord, as and when due, all sums payable to Landlord hereunder, including, without limitation, amounts payable for Real Property Taxes (as defined in Section 5) and insurance premiums, and (iv) perform all other obligations required by Tenant pursuant to this Lease. 2.2.3 Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall arrange for the ------------------- construction of certain Tenant Improvements (as defined in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B) in accordance with and subject to the terms of the --------- Work Letter. Landlord shall commence the construction of the Tenant improvements and diligently pursue such construction to completion as soon as reasonably practicable following the Possession Date. Tenant's use of the Premises shall not unreasonably interfere with Landlord's contractor(s) or otherwise impede the completion of the Tenant improvements. The construction of the Tenant Improvements shall not delay the occurrence of the Commencement Date. Tenant has determined that the Premises are acceptable for Tenant's use and Tenant acknowledges that, except as set forth in the Work Letter, neither Landlord nor any broker or agent has made any representations or warranties in connection with the physical condition of the Premises or their fitness for Tenant's use upon which Tenant has relied directly or indirectly for any purpose. 2.2.4 Substantial Completion. The Tenant Improvements shall be deemed ---------------------- to be "Substantially Complete" on the date on which Landlord files or causes to be filed with the City in which the Premises are located (if required) and 1. delivers to Tenant an architect's notice of substantial completion, or similar written notice that the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Complete. As used herein, the term "Substantially Complete" means that the Tenant Improvements have been constructed in substantial compliance with the applicable plans and specifications, except only minor "punchlist" items. Landlord shall promptly complete such punchlist items to the reasonable satisfaction of Tenant. 3. RENT. ---- 3.1 Rent. ---- 3.1.1 Tenant's obligation to pay Base Rent shall commence on the first (1st) calendar day following the date on which the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Complete and possession of the Premises has been tendered to Tenant (the "Rent Commencement Date"). Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at Landlord's Address for Payment of Rent designated in the Basic Lease Information, or at such other address as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing to Tenant for the payment of Rent, the Base Rent, without notice, demand, offset or deduction, in advance, on the first day of each calendar month. Upon the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the first month's Base Rent. Base Rent for the period from the Rent Commencement Date to the first day of the next calendar month shall be prorated on a per diem basis. All sums other than Base Rent which Tenant is obligated to pay under this Lease shall be deemed to be additional rent due hereunder, whether or not such sums are designated "additional rent." The term "Rent" means the Base Rent and all additional rent payable hereunder. 3.1.2 As set forth in the Basic Lease Information, the initial Base Rent shall be the sum of $74,800.00 per month, which is calculated on the basis of $0.34 per square foot. Tenant acknowledges that the Premises contains approximately 220,000 rentable square feet of space. The parties acknowledge that such measurement is an estimate and that the Base Rent shall not be adjusted on the basis of a difference in the actual number of rentable square feet. 3.2 Late Charge and Interest. The late payment of any Rent will cause ------------------------ Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection costs and processing and accounting expenses and increased debt service ("Delinquency Costs"). If Landlord has not received any installment of Rent within ten (10) days after such amount is due, Tenant shall pay a late charge of five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount, which is agreed to represent a reasonable estimate of the Delinquency Costs incurred by Landlord. In addition, all such delinquent amounts shall bear interest from the date such amount was due until paid in full at a rate per annum ("Applicable Interest Rate") equal to the lesser of(a) the maximum interest rate permitted by law or (b) five percent (5%) above the rate publicly announced by Bank of America, N.A. (or if Bank of America, N.A. ceases to exist, the largest bank then headquartered in the State of California ("Bank") as its "Reference Rate." If the use of the announced Reference Rate is discontinued by the Bank, then the term Reference Rate shall mean the announced rate charged by the Bank which is, from time to time, substituted for the Reference Rate. Landlord and Tenant recognize that the damage which Landlord shall suffer as a result of Tenant's failure to pay such amounts is difficult to ascertain and said late charge and interest are the best estimate of the damage which Landlord shall suffer in the event of late payment. If a late charge becomes payable for any three (3) installments of Rent within any twelve (12) month period, then the Rent shall automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance. 3.3 Intentionally Omitted. --------------------- 4. UTILITIES. Tenant shall make all arrangements for and shall pay all charges --------- for heat, water, gas, electricity, telephone and any other utilities used on or provided to the Premises including, without limitation, paying any deposits and "hook up charges." Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for interruption in or curtailment of any utility service, nor shall any such interruption or curtailment constitute constructive eviction or grounds for rental abatement. The cost of maintaining and repairing the plumbing, electrical distribution, and mechanical systems, and other utility installations shall be borne by the parties as provided in Section 8. 5. TAXES. ----- 5.1 Real Property Taxes. Landlord shall pay to the proper taxing ------------------- authorities as the same become due all Real Property Taxes applicable to the Premises, subject to reimbursement by Tenant as provided below. The term "Real Property Taxes" shall be the sum of the following: all real property taxes, 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 and traffic charges, housing fund assessments, open space charges, child care fees, school, sewer and parking fees or any other assessments, levies, fees, exactions or charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen (including fees "in-lieu" of any such tax or assessment) which are assessed, levied, charged, conferred or imposed by any public authority upon the Premises (or any real property comprising any portion thereof) or its operations, together with all taxes, assessments or other fees imposed by any public authority upon or measured by any Rent or other charges payable hereunder, including any gross receipts tax or excise tax levied by any governmental authority with respect to receipt of rental income, 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 documentary transfer taxes upon this transaction or 2. any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest in the Premises, together with any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax previously included within the aforesaid definition or any additional tax the nature of which was previously included within the aforesaid definition, together with the costs and expenses (including attorneys and expert witness fees and costs) of challenging any of the foregoing or seeking the reduction in or abatement, redemption or return of any of the foregoing, but only to the extent of any such reduction, abatement, redemption or return. Nothing contained in this Lease shall require Tenant to pay any franchise, corporate, estate or inheritance tax of Landlord, or any income, profits or revenue tax or charge upon the net income of Landlord. 5.1.1 Reimbursement By Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount ----------------------- equal to the Real Property Taxes then due within fifteen (15) days after delivery to Tenant by Landlord of an invoice for the same, together with a copy of the corresponding tax bill. Landlord may, at Landlord's option, deliver statements from different taxing authorities at different times or deliver all such statements at one time; provided, however, that Landlord shall not change the method of invoicing Tenant for Real Property Taxes more than one (1) time in each three (3) year period and, in each case, shall give Tenant thirty (30) days notice prior to any change in such method of invoicing Tenant. In addition, Landlord may elect to collect such Real Property Taxes from Tenant in advance, on a monthly or quarterly basis, based upon Landlord's reasonable estimate of such Real Property Taxes. If the amount of monthly or quarterly payments for estimated Real Property Taxes received by Landlord from Tenant is more or less than the actual Real Property Taxes due, an appropriate adjustment shall be made by Landlord and Tenant. 5.1.2 Partial Years. Real Property Taxes for partial tax fiscal ------------- years, if any, falling within the Term, shall be prorated. Tenant's obligations for Real Property Taxes for the last full or partial year of the Term shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 5.2 Personal Property Taxes. Prior to delinquency, Tenant shall pay all ----------------------- taxes and assessments levied upon trade fixtures, alterations, additions, improvements, inventories and other personal property located and/or installed on the Premises by Tenant; and Tenant shall provide Landlord copies of receipts for payment of all such taxes and assessments. To the extent any such taxes are not separately assessed or billed to Tenant, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof as invoiced by Landlord. 6. TRIPLE NET LEASE. It is intended that this Lease be a "triple net lease," ---------------- and that the Rent to be paid hereunder by Tenant will be received by Landlord without any deduction or offset whatsoever by Tenant, foreseeable or unforeseeable. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure, incur any obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with this Lease or the ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord monthly, as additional rent, for all costs and fees reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with the management of this Lease and the Premises including the cost of those services which are customarily performed by a property management services company. 7. INSURANCE. --------- 7.1 Landlord. Landlord shall maintain insurance insuring the Building -------- against fire and extended coverage (including, if Landlord elects, "all risk" coverage, earthquake/volcanic action, flood and/or surface water insurance) for the full replacement cost of the Building, with deductibles and the form and endorsements of such coverage as selected by Landlord, together with rental abatement insurance against loss of Rent in an amount equal to the amount of Rent for a period of at least twelve (12) months commencing on the date of loss. Landlord may also carry such other insurance as Landlord may deem prudent or advisable, including, without limitation, liability insurance in such amounts and on such terms as Landlord shall determine. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the premiums then due within fifteen (15) days after delivery to Tenant by Landlord of an invoice for any such premiums. Landlord may, at Landlord's option, elect to collect such premiums from Tenant in advance, on a monthly or quarterly basis, based upon Landlord's reasonable estimate of such premiums. If the amount of monthly or quarterly payments for estimated premiums received by Landlord from Tenant are more or less than the actual premiums due, an appropriate adjustment shall be made by Landlord and Tenant. 7.2 Tenant. Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, obtain and keep in force at ------ all times the following insurance: 7.2.1 Commercial General Liability Insurance (Occurrence Form). A -------------------------------------------------------- policy of commercial general liability insurance (occurrence form) having a combined single limit of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) aggregate per location if Tenant has multiple locations, providing coverage for, among other things, blanket contractual liability, premises, products/completed operations and personal and advertising injury coverage, with deletion of (a) the exclusion for operations within fifty (50) feet of a railroad track (railroad protective liability), if applicable, and (b) the exclusion for explosion, collapse or underground hazard, if applicable, and, if necessary, Tenant shall provide for restoration of the aggregate limit. 3. 7.2.2 Automobile Liability Insurance.

In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall have the right (but not the obligation) within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice to give written notice to landlord of Tenant's intention to pay the cost of repair of such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, Landlord shall make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such repairs within fifteen (15) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord. If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord's repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period that the Premises are unfit for occupancy.

If such partial condemnation does not materially impair Tenant's ability to use the Premises for the business of Tenant, Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to the extent of any condemnation proceeds recovered by Landlord, excluding the portion thereof lost in such condemnation, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that after the date of such title vesting Rent shall be adjusted as reasonably determined by Landlord. 13.3 Award. If the Premises are wholly or partially Condemned, Landlord ----- shall be entitled to the entire award paid for such condemnation, and Tenant waives any claim to any part of the award from Landlord or the condemning authority; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to recover from Landlord such compensation, if any, as may be specifically awarded to Landlord in connection with costs in removing Tenant's merchandise, furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements and equipment to a new location. No condemnation of any kind shall be construed to constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant or a breach of any express or implied covenant of quiet enjoyment. 13.4 Temporary Condemnation.

Landlord shall have all the rights and ----------- remedies of a landlord provided by applicable law, including the right to recover from Tenant: (a) the worth, at the time of award, of the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination, (b) the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned after the date of termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (c) the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, and (d) any other amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's default, The phrase "worth, at the time of award," as used in (a) and (b) above, shall be computed at the Applicable Interest Rate, and as used in (c) above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%). 14.2.2 Continuation. Even though an Event of Default may have ------------ occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession; and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent as it becomes due. Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may, during the period Tenant is in default, enter the Premises and relet the same, or any portion thereof, to third parties for Tenant's account and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, brokers' commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises and like costs.

No act by Landlord hereunder, including acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease, shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease. In the event that Landlord elects to relet the Premises, the rent that Landlord receives from reletting shall be applied to the payment of, first, any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Rent and Real Property Taxes; second, all costs, including maintenance, incurred by Landlord in reletting; and, third, Base Rent and Real Property Taxes under this Lease. After deducting the payments referred to above, any sum remaining from the rental Landlord receives from reletting shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. In no event, and notwithstanding anything in Section 15 to the contrary, shall Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord. If, on the date Rent is due under this Lease, the rent received from the reletting is less than the Rent due on that date. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the remaining 10. Rent due, all costs, including maintenance, which Landlord incurred in reletting the Premises that remain after applying the rent received from reletting as provided hereinabove. So long as this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall have the right to remedy any default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises, to cause a receiver to be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to add to the Rent payable hereunder all of Landlord's reasonable costs in so doing, with interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure. 14.3 Cumulative. Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein or ---------- now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and shall not preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of Rent; and Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue other remedies. 15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign, sublet or otherwise ------------------------- transfer, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, the Premises or any part thereof without Landlord's prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The merger of Tenant with any other entity or the transfer of any controlling or managing ownership or beneficial interest in Tenant, or the assignment of a substantial portion of the assets of Tenant, whether or not located at the Premises, shall constitute an assignment hereunder. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet any or all of the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice thereof with copies of all related documents and agreements associated with the assignment or sublease, including without limitation, the financial statements of any proposed assignee or subtenant, forty-five (45) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the assignment or sublease. Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the review of such documentation plus an administrative fee of Three Hundred Fifty Dollars ($350.00) for each proposed transfer. Landlord shall have a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice and all related documents and agreements to notify Tenant in writing of Landlord's approval or disapproval of the proposed assignment or sublease. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant in writing of such election, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such assignment or subletting. This Lease may not be assigned by operation of law. Any purported assignment or subletting contrary to the provisions hereof shall be void and shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. If Tenant receives rent or other consideration for any such transfer in excess of the Rent, or in case of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such Rent that is fairly allocable to such portion after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments required hereunder are appropriately taken into account, Tenant shall pay Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the difference between each such payment of rent or other consideration and the Rent required hereunder. During any period in which an Event of Default (as defined in Section 14.1) remains uncured, Landlord may, without waiving any other rights or remedies, collect rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved and apportion any excess rent so collected in accordance with the terms of the preceding sentence. Tenant shall continue to be liable as a principal and not as a guarantor or surety to the same extent as though no assignment or subletting had been made. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this Lease or amendments or modifications to the Lease by assignees of Tenant without notifying Tenant or any successor of Tenant and without obtaining their consent. No permitted transfer shall be effective until there has been delivered to Landlord a counterpart of the transfer instrument in which the transferee agrees to be and remain jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the payment of Rent pertaining to the Premises and for the performance of all the terms and provisions of this Lease relating thereto arising on or after the date of the transfer. Subject to the provisions hereof and provided Landlord receives thirty (30) days prior written notice and a true and correct copy of the assignment instrument. Landlord hereby consents to the assignment of Tenant's interest in and to this Lease to any wholly owned subsidiary of Tenant. 16.

For purposes of this Lease, the term "Force Majeure ------------------- Event" shall mean and include the following: any delay caused by any action, inaction, order, ruling, moratorium, regulation, statute, condition or other decision of any governmental agency having jurisdiction over any portion of the Project, over the construction anticipated to occur thereon or over any uses thereof, or by fire, flood, inclement weather, strikes, lockouts or other labor or industrial disturbance (whether or not on the part of agents or employees of either party hereto engaged in the construction of the Premises), civil disturbance, order of any government, court or regulatory body claiming jurisdiction or otherwise, act of public enemy, war, riot, sabotage, blockade, embargo, failure or inability to secure materials, supplies or labor through ordinary sources by reason of shortages or priority, discovery of hazardous or toxic materials, earthquake, or other natural disaster, or any cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control (excluding financial inability) of the party whose performance is required, or any of its contractors or other representatives, whether or not similar to any of the causes hereinabove stated. 19. CPI Adjustment. Effective as of the first day of the thirty-first (31st) -------------- month of the Term (the "CPI Adjustment Date"), the Base Rent in effect immediately before the CPI Adjustment Date shall be increased, in accordance with the percentage increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index, to an amount which is equal to the product of (i) the Index (as hereinafter defined) for the third month preceding the CPI Adjustment Date, multiplied by (ii) the initial Base Rent set forth in the Basic Lease Information, divided by (iii) the Basic Index (as hereinafter defined); provided, however, in no event shall the Base Rent (as adjusted) in effect immediately prior to the CPI Adjustment Date be decreased, nor shall it be increased as a result of a CPI adjustment by more than six percent (6%) per Lease Year, compounded annually.

If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the --------- Base Rent for the Second Extension Term within such thirty (30) day period, then within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the thirty (30) day period, each party, by giving notice to the other party, shall appoint a real estate appraiser who is a current member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, with at least five (5) years of experience appraising building space comparable to the Premises in the city and county where the Premises is located to determine the Market Rent. Market Rent shall mean the monthly amount per rentable square foot in the Premises that a willing, non-equity new tenant would pay and a willing landlord would accept at arm's length for space in a comparable building or buildings, with comparable tenant improvements, in a comparable location, giving appropriate consideration to monthly rental rates per rentable square foot, the presence or absence of rent escalation clauses such as operating expense and tax pass-throughs, length of lease term, size and location of premises being leased and other 16. generally applicable terms and conditions of tenancy for a similar building or buildings. If the two (2) appraisers are unable to agree on the Market Rent for the Second Extension Term within twenty (20) days, they shall select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications stated in this Section within five (5) days after the last day the two (2) appraisers are given to set the Market Rent for the Second Extension Term.

The resulting quotient shall be the Market Rent for the first thirty (30) months of the Second Extension Term. Each party shall be responsible for the costs, charges and fees of the appraiser appointed by that party plus one-half of the cost of the third appraiser. 20.3.3 Amendment of Lease.
