After reasonable notice, except in emergencies where no such notice shall be required, Landlord, its agents and representatives, shall have the right to enter the Premises to inspect the same, to clean, to perform such work as may be permitted or required hereunder, to make repairs or alterations to the Premises or Project or to other tenant spaces therein, to deal with emergencies, to post such notices as may be permitted or required by law to prevent the perfection of liens against Landlord's interest in the Project or to exhibit the Premises to prospective tenants, purchasers, encumbrances or others, or for any other purpose as Landlord may deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's business operations. Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement of Rent by reason of the exercise of any such right of entry. Six months prior to the end of the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to erect on the Premises and/or Project a suitable sign indicating that the Premises are available for lease. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to vacating the premises and shall meet with Landlord for a joint inspection of the Premises at the time of vacating. In the event of Tenant's failure to give such notice or participate in such joint inspection, Landlord's inspection at or after Tenant's vacating the Premises shall conclusively be deemed correct for purposes of determining Tenant's responsibility for repairs and restoration. UTILITIES 15. Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, heat, air conditioning, light, power, telephone, sewer, sprinkler charges and other utilities and services used on or from the Premises, together with any taxes, penalties, surcharges or the like pertaining thereto, and maintenance charges for utilities and shall furnish all electric light bulbs, ballasts and tubes. If any such services are not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay a reasonable proportion, as determined by Landlord, of all charges jointly serving other premises. Landlord shall not be liable for any damages directly or indirectly resulting from nor shall the Rent or any monies owed Landlord under this Lease herein reserved be abated by reason of (a) the installation, use or interruption of use of any equipment used in connection with the furnishing of any of the foregoing utilities and services, (b) failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any such utilities or services when such failure or delay is caused by acts of God or the elements, labor disturbances of any character, any other accidents or other conditions beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, or (c) the limitation, curtailment, rationing or restriction on use of water, electricity, gas or any other form of energy or any other service or utility whatsoever serving the Premises or Project. Landlord shall be entitled to cooperate voluntarily and in a reasonable manner in the efforts of national, state or local governmental agencies or utility suppliers in reducing energy or other resource consumption. The obligation to 9 10 make services available hereunder shall be subject to the limitations of any such voluntary, reasonable program. SHOULD AN INTERRUPTION OF SERVICES OR UTILITIES THAT HAS BEEN CAUSED BY LANDLORD'S NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT RENDER THE PREMISES UNTENANTABLE FOR A PERIOD LONGER THAN FORTY EIGHT (48) HOURS, LANDLORD WILL ABATE BASE RENT FOR EACH 24 HOUR PERIOD THEREAFTER UNTIL PREMISES CAN, IN LANDLORD'S OPINION, BE OCCUPIED AGAIN, REDUCED BY TENANT'S PROCEEDS FROM ANY BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR OTHER INSURANCE. SUBORDINATION 16. TENANT SHALL, UPON LANDLORD'S REQUEST, SUBORDINATE THIS LEASE TO ANY FIRST LIEN OR GROUND LEASE HEREAFTER PLACED BY LANDLORD UPON TIRE PREMISES, PROVIDED THE LENDER OR GROUND LESSOR EXECUTED A NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT ASSURING TENANT THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING ANY DEFAULT BY LANDLORD TO THE LENDER OR GROUND LESSOR, OR ANY FORECLOSURE OR DEED IN LIEU THEREOF OR ANY TERMINATION OF THE GROUND LEASE, TENANT'S RIGHTS UNDER THIS LEASE SHALL CONTINUE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT AND ITS POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES SHALL REMAIN UNDISTURBED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS LEASE, IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO TENANT AND ITS COUNSEL. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 17. At the request of Landlord, Tenant shall provide to Landlord its current financial statements or other information discussing financial worth which Landlord shall use solely for purposes of this Lease and in connection with the ownership, management and disposition of the property subject hereto. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES 18. Tenant agrees from time to time within ten (10) days after request of Landlord, to deliver to Landlord, or Landlord's designee, an estoppel certificate stating that this Lease is in full force and effect, the date to which Rent has been paid, the unexpired portion of this Lease and such other matters pertaining to this Lease as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. Failure by Tenant to execute and deliver such certificate shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and acknowledgment by Tenant that the statements included are true and correct without exception. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this paragraph may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Project or any interest therein. The parties agree that Tenant's obligation to furnish such estoppel certificates in a timely fashion is a material inducement for Landlord's execution of the Lease. SECURITY DEPOSIT 19. Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord upon execution of this Lease, a Security Deposit as stated in the Basic Lease Information which sum shall be held by Landlord, without obligation for interest, as security for the performance of Tenant's covenants and obligations under this Lease, it being expressly understood and agreed that such deposit is not an advance rental deposit or a measure of damages incurred by Landlord in case of Tenant's default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy provided herein or provided by law, use such fund to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of Rent or other payments due to Landlord hereunder, and any other damage, injury, expense or liability caused by such event of default, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Although the Security Deposit shall be deemed the property of Landlord, any remaining balance of such deposit shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant at such time after termination of this Lease that all of the Tenant's obligations under this Lease have been fulfilled. TENANT'S REMEDIES 20. Tenant shall look solely to Landlord's interest in the Project for recovery of any judgment from Landlord. Landlord, or if Landlord is a partnership, its partners whether general or limited, or if it is a corporation, its directors, officers or shareholders, shall never be personally liable for any such judgment. Any lien obtained to enforce any such judgment and any levy of execution thereon shall be subject and subordinate to any lien, mortgage or deed of trust on the Project. 10 11 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING 21. A. Tenant shall not assign or sublet the Premises or any part thereof without Landlord's prior written approval, except as provided herein. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet any or all of the Premises, AND PROVIDED TENANT IS NOT AND HAS NOT BEEN IN MATERIAL DEFAULT DURING THE TERM OF THIS LEASE, FOR WHICH TENANT HAS RECEIVED WRITTEN NOTICE OF THE DEFAULT AND TENANT HAS FAILED TO CURE AS PROVIDED IN THIS LEASE, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice SIXTY (60) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the assignment or sublease. Landlord shall then have a period of FIFTEEN (15) days following receipt of such notice to notify Tenant in writing that Landlord elects to permit Tenant to assign this Lease or sublet such space, subject, however, to Landlord's prior written approval of the proposed assignee or subtenant and of any related documents or agreements associated with the assignment or sublease, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld so long as the use of the Premises by such proposed assignee or subtenant would be a Permitted Use and would not in Landlord's opinion MATERIALLY increase occupant density of the Project, the proposed assignee or subtenant is of sound financial condition. Written approval by Landlord of the proposed assignee or subtenant shall be required. Failure by Landlord to approve a proposed assignee or subtenant shall not cause a termination of this Lease. LANDLORD SHALL APPROVE, DISAPPROVE AS DEFINED ABOVE WITHIN FORTY-FIVE (45) DAYS OF RECEIPT OF TENANT'S FIRST NOTICE OF DESIRE TO ASSIGN OR SUBLEASE. B. Any Rent or other consideration realized by Tenant under any such sublease or assignment in excess of the Rent payable hereunder, after amortization of (1) the reasonable cost of any improvements which Tenant has made for the purpose of assigning or subletting all or part of the Premises and (2) reasonable subletting and assignment costs, shall be divided and paid, ten percent (10%) to Tenant, ninety percent (90%) to Landlord. C. In any subletting or assignment undertaken by Tenant, Tenant shall diligently seek to obtain the maximum rental amount available in the marketplace for such subletting or assignment. D. If Tenant is a corporation, a transfer of corporate shares by sale, assignment, bequest, inheritance, operation of law or other disposition (including such a transfer to or by a receiver or trustee in federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceedings), so as to result in a change in the present control of such corporation or any of its parent corporations by the person or persons owning a majority of said corporate shares, shall constitute an assignment for purposes of this paragraph. E. If Tenant is a partnership, joint venture or other unincorporated business form, a transfer of the interest of persons, firms or entities responsible for managerial control of Tenant by sale, assignment, bequest, inheritance, or operation of law or other disposition, so as to result in a change in the present control of said entity and/or a change in the identity of the persons responsible for the general credit obligations of said entity shall constitute an assignment for all purposes of this paragraph. F. No assignment or subletting by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any obligations under this Lease. Any assignment or subletting which conflicts with the provisions hereof shall be void. G. ANY PROVISION IN THIS LEASE TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING, LANDLORD'S CONSENT SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED FOR A TRANSFER: (a) TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY WHO CONTROLS, IS CONTROLLED BY OR IS UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH TENANT; (b) TO ANY CORPORATION RESULTING FROM THE MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION WITH TENANT (PROVIDED THAT TENANT'S ABILITY TO PERFORM ALL OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS LEASE ARE IN NO WAY REDUCED, AND THE OCCUPANCY DENSITY OF THE PREMISES IS NOT MATERIALLY INCREASED, AS A RESULT OF SUCH MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION); OR (c) TO ANY PERSON OR LEGAL ENTITY HAVING A CONSOLIDATED NET WORTH WITH TENANT OF AT LEAST $30,000,000, WHICH ACQUIRES ALL THE ASSETS OF TENANT AS A GOING CONCERN OF THE BUSINESS BEING CONDUCTED ON THE PREMISES (EACH OF THE FOREGOING IS HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS A "TENANT AFFILIATE"); PROVIDED THAT BEFORE SUCH ASSIGNMENT SHALL BE EFFECTIVE, (a) SAID TENANT AFFILIATE SHALL ASSUME, IN FULL, THE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT UNDER THIS LEASE, (b) LANDLORD SHALL BE GIVEN WRITTEN NOTICE OF SUCH ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION AND (c) THE USE OF THE PREMISES BY THE TENANT AFFILIATE SHALL BE AS SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPH 4. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS PARAGRAPH, THE TERM "CONTROL" MEANS POSSESSION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OF THE POWER TO DIRECT OR CAUSE THE DIRECTION OF THE MANAGEMENT, AFFAIRS AND POLICIES OF ANYONE, WHETHER THROUGH THE OWNERSHIP OF VOTING SECURITIES, BY CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE. QUIET ENJOYMENT 22. Landlord represents that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease and that Tenant, upon paying the Rent and performing its other covenants and agreements herein set forth, shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term hereof without hindrance or molestation from Landlord, subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease. CONDEMNATION 23. A. If the whole, or any substantial portion of the Project of which the Premises are a part, should be taken or condemned for any public use under governmental law, ordinance, or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and the taking would prevent or materially interfere with the Permitted Use of the Premises, this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this lease, effective when the physical taking of said Premises shall have occurred. 11 12 B. If a portion of the Project of which the Premises are a part should be taken or condemned for any public use under any governmental law, ordinance, or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and this Lease is not terminated as provided in subparagraph 23.A. above, this Lease shall not terminate, but the Rent payable hereunder during the unexpired portion of the Lease shall be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances. C. Landlord shall be entitled to any and all payment, income, rent, award, or any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with such taking or conveyance and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or otherwise for the value of any unexpired portion of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, any compensation specifically awarded Tenant for loss of business, Tenant's personal property, moving cost or loss of goodwill, shall be and remain the property of Tenant. CASUALTY DAMAGE 24. A. If the Premises should be damaged or destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice thereof to Landlord. Within thirty (30) days of such notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether in Landlord's opinion such repairs can be made either (1) within ninety (90) days, (2) in more than ninety (90) days, but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days, or (3) in more than one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such notice; Landlord's determination shall be binding on Tenant. B. If the Premises should be damaged by fire, tornado or other casualty but only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can in Landlord's estimation be completed within ninety (90) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, this Lease shall not terminate, and Landlord shall at its sole cost and expense thereupon proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair the Premises to substantially the condition in which they existed prior to such damage, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by Tenant. If the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the Rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable shall be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances. C. If the Premises should be damaged by fire, tornado or other casualty, but only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can in Landlord's estimation be completed in more than ninety (90) days but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days, then Landlord shall have the option of either (1) terminating the Lease effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage, in which event the Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of the Lease, or (2) electing to rebuild or repair the Premises to substantially the condition in which they existed prior to such damage except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by Tenant. If the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the Rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable shall be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances. In the event that Landlord should fail to complete such repairs and rebuilding within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, such period of time to be extended for delays caused by the fault or neglect of Tenant or because of acts of God, acts of public agencies, labor disputes, strikes, fires, freight embargoes, rainy or stormy weather, inability to obtain materials, supplies or fuels, or delay of the contractors or subcontractors due to such causes or other contingencies beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, Tenant may at its option terminate this Lease by delivering thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination to Landlord as Tenant's exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate. D. If the Premises should be so damaged by fire, tornado, or other casualty that rebuilding or repairs cannot in Landlord's estimation be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage. E. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that holder of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after such requirement is made by any such holder, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate. F. The provision of Section 1942, Subdivision 2, and Section 1933, Subdivision 4, of the Civil Code of California is superseded by the foregoing. HOLDING OVER 25. IF IN LANDLORD'S OPINION ACTIVE NEGOTIATION OF A RENEWAL IS NOT UNDERWAY AND PROGRESSING, AND IF Tenant retains possession of the Premises or any portion thereof without Landlord's consent following the expiration of the Lease or sooner termination for any reason, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord for each day of such retention ONE AND A HALF TIMES the amount of the daily rental for the first month prior to the date of expiration or termination. IN THE EVENT OF A RENEWAL OF THE LEASE, SAID HOLD OVER MONIES WILL BE APPLIED TO THE RENEWAL PERIOD AT THE RENEWAL RATE. Tenant shall also indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any loss or liability resulting from delay by Tenant in 12 13 surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord following expiration or termination shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease, and nothing contained in this paragraph shall waive Landlord's right of reentry or any other right. Tenant shall be only a tenant at sufferance, whether or not Landlord accepts any Rent from Tenant while Tenant is holding over without Landlord's written consent. Additionally, in the event that upon termination of the Lease, Tenant has not fulfilled its obligation with respect to repairs and cleanup of the Premises or any other Tenant obligations as set forth in this Lease, then Landlord shall have the right to perform any such obligations as it deems necessary at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and the terms of this paragraph shall apply. DEFAULT 26. A. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default on the part of Tenant: (2) NONPAYMENT OF RENT. Failure to pay any installment of Rent or any other amount due and payable hereunder upon the date when said payment is due, such failure continuing without cure by payment of the delinquent Rent and late charge or other obligations for a period of five (5) days after written notice and demand; provided, however, that except as expressly otherwise provided herein, Landlord shall not be required to provide such notice more than twice during the Term, the third such non-payment constituting default for all purposes hereof without requirements of notice. (3) OTHER OBLIGATIONS. Failure to perform any obligations, agreement or covenant under this Lease other than those matters specified in subparagraphs (1) and (2) of this subparagraph 26A, such failure continuing for fifteen (15) days after written notice of such failure, or such longer period as Landlord determines to be necessary to remedy such default, provided that Tenant shall continuously and diligently pursue such remedy at all times until such default is cured. (4) GENERAL ASSIGNMENT. A general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors. (5) BANKRUPTCY. The filing of any voluntary petition in bankruptcy by Tenant, or the filing of an involuntary petition by Tenant's creditors, which involuntary petition remains undischarged for a period of thirty (30) days. In the event that under applicable law, the trustee in bankruptcy or Tenant has the right to affirm this Lease and continue to perform the obligation of Tenant hereunder, such trustee or Tenant shall, in such time period as may be permitted by the bankruptcy court having jurisdiction, cure all defaults of Tenant hereunder outstanding as of the date of the affirmance of this Lease and provide to Landlord such adequate assurances as may be necessary to ensure Landlord of the continued performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease. (6) RECEIVERSHIP. The employment of a receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets of the Premises, if such attachment or other seizure remains undismissed or undischarged for a period of ten (10) days after the levy thereof. (7) ATTACHMENT. The attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of all or substantially all of Tenant's assets of the Premises, if such attachment or other seizure remains undismissed or undischarged for a period of ten (10) days after the levy thereof. B. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. (1) RENT. All failures to pay any monetary obligation to be paid by Tenant under this Lease shall be construed as obligations for payment of Rent. (2) TERMINATION. In the event of the occurrence of any event of default, Landlord shall have the right, with or without notice or demand, to immediately terminate this Lease, and at any time thereafter recover possession of the Premises or any part thereof and expel and remove therefrom Tenant and any other person occupying the same, by any lawful means, and again repossess and enjoy the Premises without prejudice to any of the remedies that Landlord may have under this Lease, or at law or equity by reason of Tenant's default or of such termination. (3) CONTINUATION AFTER DEFAULT. Even though Tenant has breached this Lease and/or abandoned the Premises, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession under Paragraph 26.B.(2) hereof, and Landlord may enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease, including, but without limitation, the right to recover Rent as it becomes due, and Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may exercise all of the rights and remedies of a Landlord under Section 1951.4 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor code section. Acts of maintenance preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute an election to terminate Tenant's right to possession. 13 14 C. DAMAGES UPON TERMINATION. Should Landlord terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 26.B.(2) hereof, Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies of a Landlord provided by Section 1951.2 of the Civil Code of the State of California, or successor code sections. Upon such termination, in addition to any other rights and remedies to which Landlord may be entitled under applicable law, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant: (1) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rent and other amounts which had been earned at the time of termination, (2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that the Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (3) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that the Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, and (4) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under the lease or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom. The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in (1) and (2) above shall be computed with interest at the maximum rate allowed by law. The "worth at the time of award" of the amount referred to in (3) above shall be computed by discounting such amount at the Federal Discount Rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award plus one percent (1%). D. LATE CHARGE. In addition to its other remedies, Landlord shall have the right without notice or demand to add to the amount of any payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, and which is not paid on or before the date the same is due, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the delinquency for each month or portion thereof that the delinquency remains outstanding to compensate Landlord for the loss of the use of the amount not paid and the administrative costs caused by the delinquency, the parties agreeing that Landlord's damage by virtue of such delinquencies would be difficult to compute and the amount stated herein represents a reasonable estimate thereof. E. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. All rights, privileges and elections or remedies of the parties are cumulative and not alternative to the extent permitted by law and except as otherwise provided herein. LIENS 27. Tenant shall keep the premises free from liens arising out of or related to work performed, materials or supplies furnished or obligations incurred by Tenant or in connection with work made, suffered or done by Tenant in or on the Premises or Project. In the event that Tenant shall not, within ten (10) days following the imposition of any such lien, cause the same to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right, but not the obligation, to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All sums paid by Landlord on behalf of Tenant and all expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therefore shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant on demand with interest at the maximum rate allowable by law. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices permitted or required by law, or which Landlord shall deem proper, for the protection of Landlord, the Premises, the Project and any other party having an interest herein, from mechanics' and materialmen's liens, and Tenant shall give Landlord not less than ten (10) business days prior written notice of the commencement of any work in the Premises or Project which could lawfully give rise to a claim for mechanics' or materialmen's lien. TRANSFERS BY LANDLORD 29. In the event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the Project, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability upon any of the covenants or conditions, express or implied, herein contained in favor of Tenant, and in such event Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor in interests of Landlord in and to this Lease. This Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Tenant agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee. 14 15 RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM TENANT'S COVENANTS 30. All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and without any abatement of Rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money other than Rent, required to be paid by it hereunder, or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, and such failure shall continue for ten (10) days after notice thereof by Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to do so, and without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of the Tenant, make any such payment or perform any such act on the Tenant's part to be made or performed. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permitted by law from the date of such payment by the Landlord shall be payable to Landlord on demand, and Tenant covenants to pay such sums, and Landlord shall have, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, the same right and remedies in the event of the nonpayment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Rent. WAIVER 31. If either Landlord or Tenant waives the performance of any term, covenant or condition contained in this Lease, such waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition contained herein. The acceptance of rent by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time Landlord accepted such Rent. Failure by Landlord to enforce any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease for any length of time shall not be deemed to waive or to decrease the right of Landlord to insist thereafter upon strict performance by Tenant. Waiver of Landlord of any term, covenant or condition contained in this Lease may only be made by a written document signed by Landlord. NOTICES 32. Each provision of this Lease or of any applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements with reference to the sending, mailing or delivery of any notice or the making of any payment by Landlord or Tenant to the other shall be deemed to be complied with when and if the following steps are taken: A. All Rent and other payments required to be made by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be payable to Landlord at the address set forth in the Basic Lease Information, or at such other address as Landlord may specify from time to time by written notice delivered in accordance herewith. Tenant's obligation to pay Rent and any other amounts to Landlord under the terms of this Lease shall not be deemed satisfied until such Rent and other amounts have been actually received by Landlord. B. All notices, demands, consents and approvals which may or are required to be given by either party to the other hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been fully given when deposited in the United States mail, certified or registered, postage prepaid, or express mail or confirmed facsimile and addressed to the party to be notified at the address for such party specified in the Basic Lease Information or to such other place as the party to be notified may from time to time designate by at least fifteen (15) days notice to the notifying party. Tenant appoints as its agent to receive the service of all default notices and notice of commencement of unlawful detainer proceedings the persons named in the Basic Lease Information in addition to the person in charge of or apparently in charge of or occupying the Premises at the time, and, if there is no such person, then such service may be made by mailing to the persons named in the Basic Lease Information and attaching the same on the main entrance of the Premises. ATTORNEYS' FEES 33. In the event either party places the enforcement of this Lease, or any part thereof, or the collection of any Rent due, or to become due hereunder, or recovery of the possession of the Premises in the hands of an attorney or files suit upon the same, the prevailing party shall recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 34. This Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Landlord, its successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Tenant, its successors, and to the extent assignment may be approved by Landlord hereunder, Tenant's assigns. FORCE MAJEURE 35. Whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for action to be taken by Landlord, Landlord shall not be liable or responsible for, and there shall be excluded from the computation for any such period of time, any delays due to strike, riots, acts of God, shortages of labor or materials, war, governmental laws, regulations or restrictions or any other causes of any kind whatsoever which are beyond the control of Landlord. MISCELLANEOUS 36. A. The term "Tenant" or any pronoun used in place thereof shall indicate and include the masculine or feminine, the singular or plural number, individuals, firms or corporations, and their and each of their respective successors, executors, administrators and permitted assigns, according to the context hereof. B. Time is of the essence regarding this Lease and all of its provisions. C. This Lease shall in all respects be governed by the laws of the State of California. D. This Lease, together with its exhibits, contains all the agreements of the parties hereto and supersedes any previous negotiations. 15 16 E. There have been no representations made by the Landlord or understandings made between the parties other than those set forth in this Lease and its exhibits. F. This Lease may not be modified except by a written instrument by the parties hereto. G. If, for any reason whatsoever, any of the provisions hereof shall be unenforceable or ineffective, all of the other provisions shall be and remain in full force and effect. ONE TIME RIGHT TO CANCEL 37. Tenant shall be granted a one time right to cancel this Lease, provided that Tenant is not, and has not been, in material default throughout this Lease, for which Tenant has received written notice of the default and Tenant has failed to cure as provided in this Lease. Termination will occur on the first day of the thirty-seventh (37th) month only if activated by Tenant giving Landlord at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice of its intent together with a payment of all unamortized costs incurred by Landlord for the tenant improvements outlined in Exhibit C and Exhibit C-l attached hereto, including permits and space planning costs and using straight line amortization, plus three months rent equivalent to the 37th, 38th and 39th months base rent plus operating expenses ("Cancellation Fee"). Nonpayment of the 37th month base rent equivalent from the Cancellation Fee at time of said notice, lack of written notification per the above outlined schedule, or any material event of default whatsoever during the term of this Lease for which Tenant has received written notice of the default and Tenant has failed to cure as provided in this Lease renders this paragraph null and void. The balance of the Cancellation Fee (the unamortized construction costs plus the 38th and 39th month base rent equivalent plus the operating costs for the 37th through the 39th month) shall be due on the effective date of termination. 38. LEASE EFFECTIVE DATE. Submission of this instrument for examination or signature by Tenant does not constitute a reservation or option for lease, and it is not effective as a lease or otherwise until execution by Landlord and Tenant. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Lease according to the dates listed below. "Landlord" "Tenant" SPIEKER PROPERTIES, L.

CLUP Comprehensive Land Use Plan 1990 [PHOTOGRAPH OF JET FIGHTER PLANE] Naval Air Station Miramar San Diego, California AIRPORT NOISE/LAND USE COMPATIBILITY MATRIX IMPLEMENTATION DIRECTIVES All the uses specified are "compatible" up to the noise level indicated. Specified uses are also allowed as "conditionally compatible" in the noise levels shown if two specific conditions are met and certified by the local general purpose agency: - Proposed buildings will be noise attenuated to the level shown on the matrix based on an acoustical study submitted along with building plans. - In the case of discretionary actions, such as approval of subdivisions, zoning changes, or conditional use permits, an aviation easement for noise shall be required to be recorded with the County Recorder as a condition of approval of the project. A copy shall also be filed with the affected airport operator. For all property transactions, appropriate legal notice shall be given to all purchasers, lessees and renters of property in "conditionally compatible" areas which clearly describes the potential for impacts from airplane noise associated with airport operations. Notice will also be provided as required on the State Real Estate Disclosure form. Identified uses proposed in noisier areas than the level indicated on the matrix are considered "incompatible." The directives below relate to the specific "conditionally compatible" land use categories identified by number on the matrix. 3. New schools, preschools and libraries located within the CNEL 60-65 contours must be subjected to an acoustical study to assure that interior levels will not exceed CNEL 45. 4. New residential and related uses located within the CNEL 60-65 contours must be subjected to an acoustical study to assure that interior levels will not exceed CNEL 45. Appropriate legal notice shall be provided to purchasers, lessees, and renters of properties in this conditionally compatible zone in the manner previously described. "Residential hotels" are defined as those that have 75% or more of accommodations occupied by permanent guests (staying more than 30 days) or those hotels which have at least 50 percent of their accommodations containing kitchens. 5. Transient Lodging is defined as hotels and motels, membership lodgings (Y's etc.), suite or apartment hotels, hotels, or other temporary residence units, not defined as residential hotels, above. Within the CNEL 60-70 contours, buildings must be subjected to an acoustical study to assure that interior levels do not exceed CNEL 45. Appropriate legal notice shall be provided to purchasers, lessees, and renters of properties in this conditionally compatible zone in the manner previously described. 6. Office buildings include many types of office and service uses: business and business services; finance, insurance, real estate; personal services; professional (medical, legal and educational); and government, research and development and others. Within the CNEL 65-70 contours, buildings must be subjected to an acoustical study to assure that interior levels do not exceed CNEL 50. Appropriate legal notice shall be provided to purchasers, lessees, and renters of properties in this conditionally compatible zone in the manner previously described. 8. For new commercial retail uses located within the CNEL 65-75 contours, buildings must be subjected to an acoustical study to assure that interior levels do not exceed CNEL 50. Appropriate legal notice shall be provided to purchasers, lessees, and renters of properties in this conditionally compatible zone in the manner previously described. 22 23 WHAT IS THE CLUP? The Naval Air Station (NAS) Miramar Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP) represents Navy and community recommendations for achieving compatible development near the air station. The CLUP was prepared by the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) under authority of Article 3.5 of the California Public Utilities Code. The CLUP also incorporates recommendations of the Navy's Air Installation Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ) program, part of a nation-wide planning effort by the Department of Defense to look at accident potential and noise impacts around each military air installation in the United States. The goals of the CLUP are to: * Protect NAS Miramar from incompatible land uses; * Provide criteria for the orderly growth of the area surrounding the air station; * Safeguard the general welfare of those inhabitants within the vicinity of the air station by protecting them from the adverse effects of aircraft noise and accident potential; and * Ensure that no obstructions or other hazards affect navigable airspace. WHY IS THERE A PROBLEM? Many military and civilian airfields were originally constructed in the open countryside. Over the years pressures to house a growing population meant people tended to move onto land near airfields. This nearby land normally has established access routes, and in many cases offers the advantages of living or working close to a major employment base. Meanwhile the level of air traffic has increased. These counteracting trends can cause problems for the air facility as well as local residents. Specifically, problems arise when use of the land is not controlled for compatibility with air operations. Although noise impact areas no longer grow at rates experienced in the 1970's (and have actually decreased at NAS Miramar), the land near all airfields will continue to have high noise levels and potential for aircraft accidents. Land near airfields is suitable for certain types of development, such as agriculture or industrial uses, but may not be suitable for other types of development. Land near NAS Miramar consists of a mix of residential, commercial and industrial uses. For the most part, these developments are considered compatible with the current land use plan. COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION Land use compatibility is a shared concern of the Navy, the public, and the local government agencies who have planning and zoning authority. The decision makers for the local government have the key responsibility for taking actions that preserve land use compatibility. The cooperative action of all parties helps to resolve land use compatibility problems. NAVY ROLE IN THE ECONOMY More than 11,000 military and 2,500 civilian personnel work at NAS Miramar. Nearly 2,500 bachelor and 615 married military personnel (with 1,000 dependents) live at the air facility. An additional 1800 military, with 5,500 dependents live in military housing off station with the rest living in the surrounding communities. All totalled -- military, civilians and dependents -- NAS Miramar has an extended family of nearly 30,000. NAS Miramar is part of the naval complex in San Diego County. Over 175,000 Department of Defense personnel work in San Diego with a total economic impact to the community of $9.5 billion annually. NAS Miramar accounts for over $700 million of this total. Overall, one in five dollars in the San Diego economy is a Navy dollar. INSTALLATION MISSION NAS Miramar is the home of the jet fighter and early warning aircraft of the Pacific Fleet. The mission of the station is to maintain and operate facilities and provide services and materials to support operations of aviation activities and units of the operating forces of the Navy. WHAT IS NAS MIRAMAR DOING? The people stationed at NAS Miramar are aware of their responsibility to minimize noise levels and hazards for the residents of nearby communities. Since 1974, noise complaints at NAS Miramar have decreased from a high of over 2,000 to 210 in 1991. This decrease resulted from the installation of hush houses to suppress ground engine runups, noise abatement procedures, and changes in aircraft mix. MORE INFORMATION Copies of the NAS Miramar CLUP may be obtained from SANDAG. Information on height restrictions and obstruction determination can be obtained from the Federal Aviation Administration or NAS Miramar. Information on land use compatibility may be obtained from the Community Planning Liaison Office at NAS Miramar.

The noise descriptor used in this study is CNEL, which stands for Community Noise Equivalent Level. CNEL is the weighted average sound level for a 24-hour day. It is calculated by weighing evening and night operations five and ten times more than day operations, respectively, to adjust for the increased irritation caused by noise during evening and night hours. The depicted noise footprint ranges from 60 dB CNEL to 75 dB CNEL. The Accident Potential Zones represent areas that are overflown by aircraft and, therefore, more susceptible to accidents. The three APZs are APZ II, APZ I, and the Clear Zone; each progressively closer to the runway and potentially of more concern. The Land Use Compatibility Guidelines for noise and APZs promote compatible development near the air station. The guidelines recommend restricting noise sensitive development in the high noise zones, and restricting population density within the APZs. Zones of highest noise and accident potential have the smallest range of compatible land use. [VICINITY MAP] Heights and Obstructions In addition to noise and APZ considerations, height restrictions are necessary to insure that no object will interfere with the safe operation of aircraft or deny operational capability of the air station. Any development proposal that includes an object over 200 feet above ground level (AGL) or which penetrates the 100:1 slope extending 20,000 feet from the nearest point of the nearest runway must be submitted to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for an obstruction evaluation. SANDAG and NAS Miramar must also be notified of these proposals by the applicant. The following should also be examined for compatibility: - Uses that release into the air any substance that would impair visibility or otherwise interfere with the operation of aircraft (e.g., dust, smoke, or steam). - Uses which emit or reflect light that would interfere with aircrew vision. - Uses that produce emissions which would interfere with aircraft communications systems, navigation systems or other electrical systems. - Uses which attract birds, such as (but not limited to) sanitary landfills, maintenance of feed stations, growing certain types of vegetation, etc. 24 25 Airport Noise/Land Use Compatibility Matrix
