8.3 PROHIBITED USES.
(a) Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or
about the Premises, nor bring or keep anything therein which will in any way
increase the existing premium rate or affect any fire or other insurance upon

any insurance policy covering the Building or any part of the Building or any
of the Building's contents, nor shall Tenant sell or permit to be kept, used
or sold in or about the Premises any articles which may be prohibited by a

nuisance in or about the Premises. Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be

expense, promptly comply with all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental

occupancy of the Premises, excluding structural changes not relating to or

Tenant's improvements or acts. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to
the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant shall not be responsible for
compliance with any laws, codes, ordinances or other governmental directives
where such compliance is not related specifically to Tenant's use and
occupancy of the Premises. For example, if any governmental authority should
require the Building or the Premises to be structurally strengthened against
earthquake, or should require the removal of asbestos from the Premises and

improvements are allowed by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly pay all contracts
and materialmen, so as to eliminate the possibility of a lien attaching to the
Building or the Land, and should any such lien be made or filed, for any reason,
Tenant shall discharge the same within ten (10) days after written request by
Landlord or, with the written consent of the Landlord, Tenant may obtain a bond,
in an amount satisfactory to Landlord, insuring the discharge of any mechanic's
lien or liens for labor or materials arising out of work by Tenant upon the

11.3 TOTAL DESTRUCTION. In the event the Premises are totally destroyed
or the Premises cannot be restored as required in this Lease, or as required
under applicable laws, notwithstanding the availability of insurance proceeds,
this Lease shall terminate as of the date of damage.
11.4 LANDLORD'S OBLIGATIONS. Landlord shall not be required to repair any
injury or damage by fire or other cause, or to make any restoration or
replacement of any panelings, decorations, partitions, railing, floor covering,
office fixtures or any other improvements or property installed in the Premises
by Tenant or at the direction or indirect expense of Tenant.
11.5 TENANT'S CLAIMS AGAINST LANDLORD. Except for abatement of rent, if
any, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for any damage suffered by
reason of any such damage, destruction repair or restoration unless such damage
is caused by the intentional act or negligence of Landlord or Landlord's
designated agents or employees.
ARTICLE XII: CONDEMNATION
11
If all or any part of the Premises is taken or appropriated for public
or quasi-public use by right of eminent domain with or without litigation or
transferred by agreement in connection with such public or quasi-public use,
Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right within thirty (30) days of
receipt of notice of taking, to terminate this Lease as of the date
possession is taken by the condemning authority; provided, however, that
before Tenant may terminate this Lease by reason of taking or appropriation,
such taking or appropriation shall be of such an extent and nature as to
substantially handicap, impede or impair Tenant's use of the Premises. If any
part of the Building other than the Premises shall be so taken or
appropriated, Landlord shall have the right at Landlord's option to terminate
this Lease. No award for any entire taking shall be apportioned, and Tenant
hereby assigns to Landlord any award which may be made in such taking or
condemnation, together with any and all rights of Tenant now or hereafter
arising in or to the award of any portion thereof; provided, however, that
nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in or
to require Tenant to assign to Landlord any award made to Tenant for the
taking of personal property belonging to Tenant, and for the interruption of
or damage to Tenant's business. In the event of a partial taking which does
not result in a termination of this Lease, the Base Monthly Rent shall be
abated in the proportion which the part of the Premises so made unusable
bears to the rented area of the Premises; and any award made to Tenant by
reason of any such temporary taking shall belong entirely to Tenant, and
Landlord shall not be entitled to any portion thereof.
ARTICLE XIII: ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
13.1 LANDLORD'S CONSENT REQUIRED. Tenant shall not assign, transfer,
mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest therein
either voluntarily or involuntarily by operation of law or otherwise, and Tenant
shall not sublet the Premises or any part thereof, without the prior written
consent of Landlord, and any attempt to do so shall be wholly void and shall, at
Landlord's election constitute a default under this Lease.
13.2 REASONABLE CONSENT. If Tenant complies with the following
conditions, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold Landlord's consent to the
subletting of the Premises or any portion thereof or the assignment of this
Lease. Tenant shall submit in writing to Landlord (a) the name and legal
composition of the proposed subtenant or assignee; (b) the nature of the
business proposed to be carried on in the Premises; (c) the terms and provisions
of the proposed sublease; and (d) such reasonable financial information as
Landlord may request concerning the proposed subtenant or assignee.
13.3. NO RELEASE OF TENANT. No consent by Landlord to any assignment
or subletting by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any obligation to be
performed by Tenant under this Lease, whether occurring before or after such
consent, assignment or subletting. The consent by Landlord to any assignment
or subletting shall not relieve Tenant from the obligation to obtain
Landlord's express written consent to any other assignment or subletting. The
acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person or legal entity shall
not be deemed to be a waiver by assignment, subletting or other transfer.
Consent to one assignment, subletting or other transfer shall not be deemed
to constitute consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting or other
transfer.
12
13.4 INCREASED EXPENSES. Tenant shall pay Landlord the amounts of any
increase in costs or expenses incident to the occupancy of the Premises by
such assignee or subtenant, including but not limited to, any increase in
Landlord's insurance premiums and reasonable attorney's fees incurred in
connection with giving such consent.
13.5 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant may not assign this Lease or
sublet the Premises, or any portion thereof, without Landlord's prior written
consent, except to any entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under
common control with Tenant; to any entity which results from a merger of,
reorganization of, or consolidation with Tenant; to any entity engaged in a
joint venture with Tenant; or to any entity which acquires substantially all
of the stock or assets of Tenant, as a going concern, with respect to the
business that is being conducted in the Premises (hereinafter each a
'Permitted Transfer'). In addition, a sale or transfer of the capital stock
of Tenant shall be deemed a Permitted Transfer if (1) such sale or transfer
occurs in connection with any BONA FIDE financing or capitalization for the
benefit of Tenant, or (2) Tenant is or becomes a publicly traded corporation.
Landlord shall have no right to terminate the Lease in connection with, and
shall have no right to any sums or other economic consideration resulting
from any Permitted Transfer. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding Tenant
shall remain jointly or severly liable for the Lease.
ARTICLE XIV: SUBORDINATION, QUIET ENJOYMENT AND ATTORNMENT
14.1 SUBORDINATION. Subject to Tenant's receipt of a reasonably
satisfactory non-disturbance agreement the approval of which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, this Lease at Landlord's option shall be
subject and subordinate to the lien of any mortgages or deed of trust in any
amount or amounts whatsoever now or hereafter placed on or against the Land,
the Building, on or against Landlord's interest or estate therein, without
the necessity of the execution and delivery of any further instruments on the
part of Tenant to effectuate such subordinations.
14.2 SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT. Subject to Tenant's receipt of a
reasonably satisfactory non-disturbance agreement the approval of which shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Tenant shall execute and deliver
upon demand, without charge therefor, such further instruments evidencing
such subordination of this Lease to the lien of any such mortgages or deeds
of trust as may be required by Landlord. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints
Landlord as Tenant's attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest (which power
shall not be affected by the disability of Tenant) to execute and deliver any
such agreements, instruments, releases or other documents.
14.3 QUIET ENJOYMENT. Upon paying rent and other sums or amounts due
under the Lease, and performing Tenant's covenants and conditions under the
Lease, Tenant shall and may peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the
Premises for the term of this Lease, subject, however, to the terms,
covenants and conditions of this Lease and of any mortgage or deed of trust
described in Section 14.1.
14.4 ATTORNMENT. In the event of foreclosure or the exercise of the
power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust made by Landlord covering the
Premises or the Building, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser upon any such
foreclosure or sale and recognize such
13
purchaser as the Landlord under this Lease, provided said purchaser expressly
agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Lease.
ARTICLE XV: DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
15.1 DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute
a material default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:
(a) Any failure by Tenant to pay the Base Monthly Rent, Base
Monthly Rent Adjustments or any other monetary sums required to be paid under
this Lease, where such failure continues for five (5) business days after
written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant:
(b) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant;
(c) A failure by Tenant to observe and perform any other terms,
covenants or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant,
where such failure continues for twenty (20) days after written notice
thereof by Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of the
default cannot reasonably be cured within the twenty (20) days period, Tenant
shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall within the twenty (20)
day period commence action to cure the default and thereafter diligently
prosecutes the same to completion;
(d) The making by Tenant of any general assignment or general
arrangement for the benefit of creditors; the filing by or against Tenant or
a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or of a petition for
reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless,
in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within
sixty (60) days); the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession
of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of
Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant
within sixty (60) days; or the attachment, execution, or other judicial
seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of
Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within
sixty (60) days.
15.2 NONEXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. In the event of any such material default by
Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to continue this Lease in full force and
effect and to collect all Base Monthly Rent, Base Monthly Rent Adjustments, and
other fees to be paid by Tenant under this Lease as and when due. During any
period that Tenant is in default, Landlord shall have the right, pursuant to
legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, to enter and
take possession of the Premises, without terminating this Lease, for the purpose
of reletting the Premises or any part thereof and making any alterations and
repairs that may be necessary or desirable in connection with such reletting.
Any such reletting or relettings may be for such term or terms (including
periods that exceed the balance of the term of this Lease), and upon such other
terms, covenants and conditions as Landlord may in Landlord's sole discretion
deem advisable. Upon each and any such reletting , the rent or rents received by
Landlord from such reletting shall be applied as follows: (1) to the payment of
any indebtedness (other than rent) due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; (2) to
the payment of costs and expenses of such reletting, including brokerage fees,
attorney's fees, court costs, and costs of any alterations or repairs; (3) to
the payment of Base Monthly Rent, Base Monthly
14
Rent Adjustments and other amounts due and unpaid hereunder; and (4) the
residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future
Base Monthly Rent, Base Monthly Rent Adjustments and other amounts as they
become due and payable hereunder. If the rent or rents received during any
month and applied as provided above shall be insufficient to cover all such
amounts including the Base Monthly Rent, Base Monthly Rent Adjustments and
other amounts to be paid by Tenant pursuant to this Lease for such month,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord any deficiency; such deficiencies shall be
calculated and paid monthly. No entry or taking possession of the Premises by
Landlord shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this
Lease, unless Landlord gives written notice of such election to Tenant or
unless such termination shall be decreed by a court of competent
jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any reletting by Landlord without termination,
Landlord may at any time thereafter terminate this Lease for such previous
default by giving written notice thereof to Tenant.
(b) Terminate Tenant's right to possession by notice to Tenant,
in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately
surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. In such event Landlord
shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by
reason of Tenant's default, including without limitation the following: (1)
all unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of such termination
(together with interest thereon at the rate of eighteen (18%) per annum to
the time of award) plus (2) the amount by which the unpaid rent which would
have been earned after termination until the time of award (together with
interest thereon at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum) exceeds
the amount of such rental loss that is proved could have been reasonably
avoided; and (3) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all
the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's
obligations under this Lease as may be permitted form time to time. Upon any
such re-entry, Landlord shall have the right to make any reasonable repairs,
alterations or modifications to the Premises which Landlord in Landlord's
reasonable discretion deems reasonable and necessary.
15.3 ADDITIONAL REMEDIES, COSTS AND EXPENSES. In addition to the
nonexclusive remedies provided in Section 15.2 above, Landlord shall have all
remedies now or hereafter provided by law for enforcing the provisions of
this Lease and Landlord's rights hereunder. In the event of any default under
this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees and court costs, incurred by
Landlord (with or without suit and before or after judgment) in obtaining
possession of the Premises, in collecting any Base Monthly Rent and any
adjustments thereto or other amounts due under the terms of this Lease and in
enforcing the provisions of this Lease or any right of Landlord under this
Lease.
15.4 DEFAULT BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall not be in default unless
Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within a
reasonable time, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after written
notice by Tenant to Landlord, specifying the nature of Landlord's default;
provided, however, that if the nature of the Landlord's obligation is such
that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance, then Landlord
shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within the thirty
(30) day period and thereafter proceeds with reasonable diligence and in good
faith to complete the required performance.
15
ARTICLE XVI: ENTRY BY LANDLORD
Landlord shall, during the term of this Lease, have the right to enter
the Premises to inspect the same at reasonable time and upon reasonable
notice to Tenant (taking into consideration the nature of Tenant's business),
to submit the Premises to prospective purchasers or tenant (but only after
Tenant's normal business hours) and to alter, improve or repair the Premises
and any portion of the Building without abatement of rent. Landlord may for
that purpose erect scaffolding and other necessary structures where
reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed; provided
however, that the entrance to the Premises shall not be blocked thereby, and
further provided that the business of Tenant shall not be interfered with
unreasonably. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times
have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and
about the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults and safes. Landlord shall have
the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open the
doors in an emergency, in order to obtain entry to the Premises, and any
entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by such means or otherwise shall
not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or
unlawful entry into, a detainer of the Premises, or any eviction of Tenant
from the Premises or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Article XVI, Landlord shall provide Tenant with at least 48 hours' prior
actual notice before entering the Premises. In the event of an emergency, the
determination of which shall require Landlord to be reasonable, Landlord
shall use its best efforts to provide Tenant with notice reasonable in such
situation.

Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation of this Lease shall, at Landlord's
election, terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies, or may, at

subleases or subtenancies provided, however, that such surrender, cancellation
or termination shall not relieve Tenant of any obligation under this Lease.
20.10 HOLDING OVER. If Tenant remains in possession of all or any part of
