42. Self-Dealing and Arm’s Length Transactions: All expenditures for which reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement is sought shall be the result of arm’slength transactions and not the result of, or motivated by, self-dealing on the part of the Grantee or any employee or agent of the Grantee. For purposes of this provision, “arm’s-length transactions” are those in which both parties are on equal footing and fair market forces are at play, such as when multiple vendors are invited to compete for an entity’s business and the entity chooses the lowest of the resulting bids. “Self-dealing” is involved where an individual or entity is obligated to act as a trustee or fiduciary, as when handling public funds, and chooses to act in a manner that will benefit the individual or entity, directly or indirectly, to the detriment of, and in conflict with, the public purpose for which all grant monies are to be expended.

43. Severability: If any part of this Agreement is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, such provisions will be voided and severed from this Agreement, but the remainder of the provisions in the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

44. Site Visits: The Grantee shall allow the State Library to access and conduct site visits, with reasonable notice, at which grant funds are expended and related work being performed at any time during the performance of the work and for up to ninety (90) days after completion of the work, or until all issues related to the grant project have been resolved. A site visit may include, but not be limited to, monitoring the use of grant funds, providing technical assistance when needed, and visiting the State funded project.

45. Termination: The Agreement shall be subject to termination by the State Librarian or designee upon notice to the Grantee at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of termination. In the event this Agreement is terminated, the Grantee shall deliver to the State Librarian copies of all reports, accounting, data, and materials prepared up to the date of termination. The State Librarian shall determine and pay the Grantee for necessary and appropriate expenditures and obligations up to the date of termination which have not been covered by prior installments previously paid to the Grantee. Upon such termination, the unused portion of the grant award must be returned to the State Library within 45 days. If funding has been advanced to the Grantee, any unobligated balances, as determined by the State Librarian, shall be returned to the State Library within 45 days of the notice of termination.

46. Timeline: Time is of the essence to this Agreement. It is mutually agreed between the parties that the Budget and the implementation plan included therein are part of the Agreement.

47. Unused Funds: At the end-of-term Grantee agrees to return any unexpended or unaccounted for funds to the State Library, or to submit a written request for an extension of the grant period. Funds will be considered unexpended or unaccounted if they were: (1) not used for their intended purpose, or (2) used inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

Funds will also be considered unaccounted for, and must be returned, if the proposal outcomes or deliverables are materially incomplete by the end-of-term or earlier termination, as determined by the State Library in its sole discretion.

48. Waiver of Rights: The State Library shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by State Library. No delay or omission on the part of State Library in exercising any rights shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by State Library of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of State Library’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by California State Library, nor any course of dealing between the State Library and Grantee, shall constitute a waiver of any of State Library’s rights or of any of Grantee’s obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of State Library is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by State Library in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the State Library.

49. Work Products: Grantee shall provide the State Library with copies of all final products identified in the Work Plan and Application. Grantee shall also provide the State Library with copies of all public education and advertising material produced pursuant to this Agreement.

50. Worker’s Compensation: The State of California will not provide Workers’ Compensation insurance for Grantee or Grantee’s employees or contract personnel. If Grantee hires employees to perform services required by this Agreement, Grantee shall provide Workers’ Compensation insurance for them.

The Grantee is aware of Labor Code Section 3700, which requires every employer to be insured against liability for Workers’ Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the Labor Code, and the Grantee agrees to comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the work of this Agreement.

RE: Contractor and Grantee Compliance with Economic Sanctions Imposed in Response to Russia’s Actions in Ukraine
Dear Grantee,
You are receiving this notification because you currently have an active grant through the California State Library.

On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (EO) regarding sanctions in response to Russian aggression in Ukraine. The EO is located at https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/3.4.22-Russia-Ukraine-Executive-Order.pdf.

The EO directs all agencies and departments that are subject to the Governor’s authority to take certain immediate steps, including notifying all contractors and grantees of their obligations to comply with existing economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia's actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law.

This correspondence serves as a notice under the EO that as a contractor or grantee, compliance with the economic sanctions imposed in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine is required, including with respect to, but not limited to, the federal executive orders identified in the EO and the sanctions identified on the U.S. Department of the Treasury website (https://home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/financial-sanctions/sanctions-programs-and-countryinformation/ukraine-russia-related-sanctions). Failure to comply may result in the termination of contracts or grants, as applicable.

Please note that for any agreements or grants valued at $5 million or more, a separate notification will be sent outlining additional requirements specified under the EO.

As a transplant and new resident of Stockton (I moved here from Brooklyn NY in 2017) the first thing I noticed was how artistic this city is. My new kids book is also titled "Two-0-Ninosaur" about moving to Stockton from NYC. It's my way of saying thank you to the 209 for being such a good city to raise my family. I would like to continue to show the world how beautiful and artsy this city is. And possibly find ways to bring other artists here.

APPROVE A MOTION TO TERMINATE THE DOWNTOWN INFRASTRUCTURE INFILL

INCENTIVE REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENTS WITH OPEN WINDOW PROJECT, LLC AND OWP PHASE 2, LP, AND DE-OBLIGATE AND REPROGRAM FUNDS

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a motion:

1. Approving the Termination Agreement (Attachment A) of the Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive Reimbursement Agreements for Open Window Project, LLC and OWP Phase 2 LP;

2. Approving the de-obligation and reprogramming of $1,400,000 CDBG funds to be made available through the Annual Action Plan approval process;

3. Approving the de-obligation of the Open Window Project and the budget appropriation of $1,940,000 in General Fund to stay in the Downtown Infill Infrastructure Reimbursement Program; and

4. Authorizing the City Manager, or designee, to take all the necessary and appropriate actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this motion, including execution of the Termination Agreement and performing all City actions discussed therein.

Summary
On July 07, 2015, the City Council approved a Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive Reimbursement (“DIIIR”) Program to support infill development in the downtown core (Attachment B - Resolution 2015-07-07-1502). In 2016, the City executed a DIIIR Agreement with Open Window Project, LLC (“OWP1”) for up to $3.8 million to assist with Phase I of its Open Window Project (the “Project”) (Attachment C - Reimbursement Agreement Phase I). In 2019, the City executed a second DIIIR with OWP Phase 2, LP (“OWP2”) for Phase II of the Project (Attachment C - Reimbursement Agreement Phase II). From 2016-2020, the Project experienced multiple changes to the scope resulting in three amendments to the DIIIR Agreement for Phase I, including a drastic reduction in residential units and commercial space. On January 11, 2022, Council approved, at the request of OWP1, the revocation of the Open Window Project Master Development Plan (“MDP”) and termination of the Development Agreement (“DA”) associated with the Project, attached as (Attachment E - Resolution 2022-01-11-1602). Staff now recommends the termination of both DIIIR Agreements with OWP1 and OWP2 through the approval of the recommended motion.

DISCUSSION
Background
To support infill development in the downtown core, the City Council approved a new incentive program titled the Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive Reimbursement Program in July 2015. In February 2016, the City approved a MDP and DA for the Project, encompassing approximately 15 square blocks within the downtown Stockton core. In the MDP and DA, Phase I of the Project originally consisted of approximately 200 residential units and 92,000 square feet of commercial space.

On November 29, 2016, OWP1 entered into a DIIIR Agreement with the City for up to $3.8 million to assist with Phase I of the Project. On May 16, 2017, OWP1 and the City executed the first amendment to the DIIIR Phase I Agreement which caused an early release of $760,000 in funding to OWP1 (Attachment F - Reimbursement Agreement Phase I Amendment 1). It secured said funding with a lien on seven properties owned by OWP1: 510, 532, and 544 East Miner Avenue, 221 North American Street, 617 East Channel Street, 621 East Channel Street, and 210 North American Street (the “Liens”). On December 19, 2017, OWP1 and the City executed the second amendment to the DIIIR Phase I Agreement authorizing an additional $2.38 million in DIIIR funding for a new total of $6.18 million (Attachment G - Reimbursement Agreement Phase I Amendment 2). The scope for Phase I of the Project increased to 261 residential units, of which 231 would be market-rate units and 92,000 square feet of commercial space.

A second DIIIR Agreement was executed on August 12, 2019, for up to $1.8 million to assist with Phase II of the Project. In July 16, 2020, a third DIIIR amendment to the Phase I Agreement was executed, decreasing the Phase I OWP Project scope to 129 market-rate residential units and 54,263 square feet of commercial space (Attachment H - Reimbursement Agreement Phase I Amendment 3). The City reduced reimbursable funding from $6.18 to $4.95 million.

At the January 11, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council approved, at the request of OWP1, the revocation of the MDP and termination of the DA.

Present Situation
Over the course of the last seven years, Staff has actively engaged with the Developer to discuss project progress relating to the DIIIR Agreement, changes in the housing market and demands, as well as compliance with the MDP and DA. From discussions held through December 2022 and January 2023, City staff and the Developer agreed on the present proposal to terminate the DIIIR Phase I and Phase II Agreements, both effective immediately upon execution of the Termination Agreement. OWP1 will return funds in the amount of $193,162.90 back to the DIIIR program based on a payment schedule outlined in the Termination Agreement: this amount was calculated from the $760,000 advanced in 2017, less eligible expenses already incurred by OWP1 on development of the project. In addition, the de-obligation of the Open Window Project will reduce the General Fund contract liability by $1,940,000. Staff recommends keeping the $1,940,000 General Fund budget appropriation in the DIIIR program. In support of the DIIIR program, Economic Development Department’s General Fund, Business Development Division will retain the $1,900,00 budget appropriation. As for the $1,400,000 CDBG funds, the City will reprogram back to CDBG. Future annual estimated costs will be included in the annual budget appropriation process. The release of City of Stockton Page 2 of 3 Printed on 2/2/2023
powered by Legistar™
635
File #: 23-0080, Version: 1
the Liens on Open Window properties will occur upon mutual agreement of an acceptable plan during OWP1’s payment schedule for the return of the $193,162.90. The Termination Agreement stipulates additional terms and conditions.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
A total of $760,000 was disbursed to OWP in General Fund and $400,000 in Community Development Block Grant (“CDBG”) funding was re-assigned to the Medici project. Termination of the DIIIR Agreements will result in a repayment of funds totaling $193,162.90 back to the DIIIR program.

In addition, the de-obligation of the OWP will reduce the General Fund contract liability by $1,940,000. Staff recommends keeping the $1,940,000 General Fund budget appropriation in the DIIIR program. In support of the DIIIR program, Economic Development Department’s General Fund, Business Development Division will retain the $1,940,000 budget appropriation. As for the $1,400,000 CDBG funds, the City will reprogram back to CDBG. Future annual estimated costs will be included in the annual budget appropriation process.

F. DEVELOPER will secure all necessary permits and design and construct the Improvements in the manner required pursuant to applicable laws, including the City of Stockton Municipal Code and standards, all at DEVELOPER'S expense, subject to reimbursement as provided in this Agreement.

1 THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE

DOWNTOWN INFRASTRUCTURE INFILL INCENTIVE REIMBURSEMENT

AGREEMENT

OPEN WINDOWN PROJECT, LLC, PHASE I
This Third Amendment (the “Third Amendment”) is entered into as of ___________________________ by and between Open Window Project, LLC, a California limited liability company, (the “DEVELOPER”), and the City of Stockton, a municipal corporation (the “CITY”).

RECITALS
A. In February 2016, CITY approved a Master Development Plan (MDP) and Development Agreement for the Open Window Project (the “Project”), which encompasses approximately 15 square blocks within the Downtown Stockton core.

B. Phase I of the Project originally consisted of approximately 200 residential units and 92,000 s.f. of commercial space.

C. In July 2015, the City Council approved a Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive Program to support infill development in the downtown core.

D. On November 29, 2016, DEVELOPER entered into a Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive Reimbursement Agreement (as amended, Agreement) with CITY for up to $3.8 million to assist with Phase I of the Project.

E. On May 9, 2017, the City Council approved an Amendment to the Reimbursement Agreement authorizing the release of $760,000 of funding to DEVELOPER and securing said funding with a lien on seven (7) properties owned by DEVELOPER.

F. In 2017 the scope for Phase I of the Project changed significantly with additional residential units and encompassing an additional city block. The change in scope would require considerable infrastructure improvements above the amount Council initially approved in November 2016.

G. On October 3, 2017, the City Council approved a Second Amendment (as amended, Second Amendment) to the Reimbursement Agreement authorizing an additional $2.38 million in Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive funding for a total of $6.18 million.

H. The scope for Phase I of the Project has changed with a decrease in the overall number of market-rate residential units and reduction of commercial space. The revised project scope will now include 129 market-rate residential units and 54,263 s.f. of commercial/retail space. This change in scope will require fewer eligible infrastructure ATTACHMENT H 725
EXHIBIT 1
2 improvements. As such, the CITY will reduce the amount in Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive funding from $6.18 million to a Third Amendment total of $4.95 million.

AMENDMENT
The Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive Reimbursement Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

1. The CITY and DEVELOPER agree to amend Section 2.A and 2.C decreasing the maximum reimbursement of funds to DEVELOPER from $6.18 million to $4.95 million.

2. The CITY and DEVELOPER agree to amend Section 2.A as follows:
“Pursuant to the guidelines and regulations herein defined, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in this Section 2, CITY agrees to reimburse DEVELOPER for the cost of improvements in the total amount of $4.95 million.”

3. The CITY and DEVELOPER agree to amend Section 2.B.ii decreasing the minimum number of new market-rate residential units from 231 to 129 and minimum square footage of new/newly renovated commercial space from 90,000 s.f. to 55,299 s.f..

4. The CITY and DEVELOPER agree to amend Section 2.C as follows: “Once the conditions in 2.B above have been satisfied as determined by CITY and subject to the limitations in 2.A above, CITY shall provide reimbursement payments to DEVELOPER, in the total amount of $4.95 million, in progress payments as follows.” The percentages of the progress payments identified in Section 2.C.i through 2.C.v will remain the same, with the actual dollar amount of each progress payment revised to reflect the new reimbursement total of $4.95 million.

5. All other terms and provisions of the Downtown Infrastructure Infill Incentive Reimbursement Agreement are unchanged and remain in full force and effect. //

REDUCTION OF LEASED PREMISES AND LEASE EXTENSION FOR 400 EAST MAIN STREET

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution:

1. Approving a Second Lease Amendment with Chris Neilson, as duly appointed Receiver (Landlord), to reduce the premises currently being leased by City on the seventh floor and extend the lease term for the third and fourth floor at 400 East Main Street; and

2. Authorizing the City Manager, or designee, to take all the necessary and appropriate actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution.

Summary
The City acquired the Waterfront Office Towers in 2018 to serve as a permanent City Hall. With the current construction schedule for City Hall at the Waterfront Towers, the City must retain offices at 400 East Main Street through March 2025. The Landlord and the City have negotiated to reduce leased space (eliminating City offices on the seventh floor) and extend the lease term. With the reduction of space on the seventh floor, the City will realize an estimated savings of $348,814.08 for the lease obligation through March 31, 2025, should the Council approve the Second Lease Amendment.

DISCUSSION
Background
On February 25, 2015, the City entered into an agreement with William J. Hoffman, duly appointed Receiver (Landlord), to lease office space at 400 East Main Street for an eight-year term, with the option to extend the lease up to an additional four years (Attachment A - Lease). On October 16, 2018, City Council approved a resolution authorizing a first amendment to the standard office lease for reduction of the leased premises and discounted prepayment of the remaining lease obligation. (Attachment B - Resolution 2018-10-16-1402). In March 2021, the Superior Court of the State of California approved a new receiver (Landlord), Chris Neilson.

Under the current terms, the City is leasing a total of 60,829 SF as shown below:

File #: 22-1203, Version: 1
Present Situation
The current lease term ends on March 31, 2023, with options to extend the full lease in one-year periods through March 31, 2027. The City will require office space through 2025 while construction continues at the Waterfront Towers. During the lease negotiation, the reduction of leased space on the seventh floor was determined to be feasible. As such, the City and Landlord wish to execute a second amendment to the current lease to reduce the premises being leased on the seventh floor by the City and extend the current lease term for the third and fourth floors through March 31, 2025. The City will realize a total savings of more than $348k given the reduction of leased space.

The following are the proposed terms of the Second Lease Amendment, which is included as Exhibit 1 to the Resolution:

Give Back Premises: Reduction of leased space - seventh floor 9,344 SF. The City will retain leased space on the third and fourth floors totaling 51,485 SF.

Retained Premises
Prepayment:

The City shall make monthly lease payments of $80,081.23, beginning March 2023.

Parking: The City shall be entitled to 95 total parking stalls with 26 reserved.

Under this amendment, the City may elect to exercise an early termination option for the third and/or fourth floors, with a 45-day prior written notice, reducing the monthly rent by $40,056.73 per month, if the City exercises the termination option for just one of the two floors.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
Approval of the Second Lease Amendment would decrease the City’s monthly lease obligation for the two-year period of March 31, 2023 through March 31, 2025, from $94,615.15 to $80,081.23, resulting in a total savings of $348,814.08. The City will use lease savings to offset the costs of the Waterfront Office Towers tenant improvements and other City Hall move-related costs.

ARTICLE 1
TERM

1.1 Commencement Date. The Term shall commence on February 25, 2015, the “Commencement Date”.

1.2 Extension Options. Tenant shall have the option (each, an “Extension Option”) to extend the term of the Lease for four consecutive one-year terms (each, an “Extension Term”) upon prior written notice (“Tenant’s Election Notice”) to Landlord no later than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the then current Term of the Lease; provided, however, that at the time Tenant gives Tenant’s Election Notice to Landlord, and for the remainder of the then existing Term of the Lease, there is (i) no event of default by Tenant under the Lease and (ii) Tenant has not entered into a Transfer as to the Premises that are subject to such extension, whether or not consented to by Landlord. During any such Extension Term, the provisions of the Lease, as it may be amended in writing executed by each party to the Lease prior to the date of the commencement of such Extension Term, shall continue in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall accept the Premises in their then “AS-IS” condition, and there shall be no abatement of Rent, nor shall there be credit or allowance given to Tenant for improvements to the Premises solely as the result of Tenant exercising either Extension Term. The Basic Monthly Rent for each Extension Term shall be in the amount set forth in Item 5 of the Basic Lease Provisions.

Landlord and Tenant understand and agree that Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Election Notice shall bind Tenant to the applicable Extension Term. In no event shall Tenant have the right to exercise any Extension Option unless it has properly exercised the applicable prior Extension Option.

ARTICLE 2
RENT

2.1 Basic Monthly Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without prior notice or demand, without offset or deduction, and in addition to all other amounts payable by Tenant hereunder, annual rent, in equal monthly installments, in the amount set forth in Item 5 of the Basic Lease Provisions (“Basic Monthly Rent”), provided that monthly Landlord shall provide an invoice of any and all expenses (other than Basic Monthly Rent) that may be due and payable by Tenant hereunder, including without limitation any interest on past due rent or Late Fees (defined below), if any (the “Rent Expenses”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any failure by Landlord to provide such an invoice excuse Tenant’s failure to pay Basic Monthly Rent as and when due.

The Basic Monthly Rent and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be paid to Landlord in advance on the first day of each month during the Term, without deduction, offset or abatement, in lawful money of the United States of America at the office of Landlord in the Building, or to such place as Landlord may designate in writing.

Basic Monthly Rent and any other Rent (as defined in Section 2.5) due under this Lease for any period during the Term, which is for less than one (1) month, shall be a prorated ATTACHMENT A 735
5 42893660v.16
portion of the monthly amount due, based upon the actual number of days in that particular month.

Landlord shall have the right to accept all Rent and other payments, whether full or partial, and to negotiate checks in payment thereof without any waiver of rights, irrespective of any conditions to the contrary sought to be imposed by Tenant. Rent shall be deemed paid to Landlord when received by Landlord, or its designee, at Landlord’s address, or at such other address as Landlord shall have designated.

2.2 Interest on Past Due Rent. Basic Monthly Rent and any other Rent not paid when due shall bear interest from the date due until the date paid at the Federal Reserve Board Discount Rate, as of such due date, plus three percent (3%) per annum (“Interest Rate”). The payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default or modify any obligations of Tenant under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Interest Rate shall not accrue on Rent Expenses unless any payment thereof is not received by Landlord within five (5) days of Tenant’s receipt of an email therefor pursuant to Section 2.1.

2.3 Late Fee. Tenant acknowledges that the late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain. Such costs may include, without limitation, administrative costs, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord.

Accordingly, if any installment of Rent shall not be received by Landlord within five (5) days after the date that such amount is due and payable, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the interest provided above in Section 2.2, a late fee in the amount of five percent (5%) of the amount of such Rent (“Late Fee”). The parties agree that such Late Fee represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment by Tenant.

Acceptance of such Late Fee by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of its rights or remedies hereunder. Any such Late Fee shall be due and payable by Tenant within five (5) business days after delivery of Landlord’s written notice thereof to Tenant and, if not paid when due, shall be added to the next installment of Basic Monthly Rent due and payable hereunder.

The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to fix Landlord’s actual damages in such event. The interest provided for in Section 2.2 and the Late Fee are separate and cumulative and are in addition to and shall not diminish or represent a substitute for any or all of Landlord’s rights or remedies under any other provision of this Lease. If a Late Fee is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for any three (3) installments of Basic Monthly Rent during any twelve (12) month period, then all further Basic Monthly Rent shall, at Landlord’s sole option, automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance, rather than monthly, notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary. If any interest or late fees shall be due from Tenant hereunder, then upon receipt of any funds from Tenant, Landlord shall credit and apply such funds first to such interest or late fees, and then to any other monetary obligations of Tenant under this Lease, all in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion.

2.4 Security Deposit. Tenant deposited with Main Street Stockton the sum of $111,668.20 (the “Prior Security Deposit”) as the security deposit under the terms of the Prior Lease, which Prior Security Deposit has been delivered to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”). Concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, (i) Landlord shall obtain from Trustee the Prior Security Deposit, which Tenant agrees is hereby delivered to Landlord as a partial Security Deposit under this Lease, and (ii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord ATTACHMENT A 736
6 42893660v.16
the additional sum of $97,646.58 for the remainder of the Security Deposit, which amount represents the difference between the amount of the Prior Security Deposit and the total amount specified in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions (“Security Deposit”). The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all terms covenants and conditions of this Lease by Tenant. Tenant agrees that Landlord may apply the Security Deposit to remedy any failure by Tenant to repair or maintain the Premises, to perform any other obligations hereunder, and for past due Rent and future Rent damages that Landlord may recover under the Civil Code of California and any other Regulations now or hereafter in effect. If Tenant has kept and performed all terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease during the Term, Landlord shall, upon the expiration or termination hereof, promptly return any unapplied portion of the Security Deposit to Tenant, or the last permitted assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder. Should Landlord use or apply any portion of the Security Deposit pursuant to the foregoing, Tenant shall replenish the Security Deposit to the amount required under the Lease within ten (10) business days after receipt of written notice from Landlord. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on any Security Deposit. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of Section 1950.7 of the Civil Code of California and any similar Regulation (defined below) now or hereafter in effect.

2.5 Rent. As used herein, “Additional Rent” means all amounts required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease other than Basic Monthly Rent, and “Rent” means, collectively, Basic Monthly Rent and Additional Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all Rent to be paid by Tenant to Landlord shall be delivered to Landlord at the notice address for CBRE set forth in Section 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions, until such time as Landlord may notify Tenant, in accordance with the terms of Section 18.13 hereof, that Landlord wishes for Tenant to deliver any and all Rent to another address.

ARTICLE 3

SIGNAGE

4.3 Interruption of Standard Services. Landlord shall not be in default hereunder or liable for any damages directly or indirectly resulting from the inadequacy, defect or failure in the supply of any service described in Section 4.1 caused by (i) the installation or repair of any equipment in connection with the furnishing of utilities or services, (ii) acts of God or the elements, labor disturbances of any character, any other accidents or any other conditions beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, or by the making of repairs or improvements to the Premises or the Project, or (iii) the limitation, curtailment, rationing or restriction imposed by any governmental agency or service or utility supplier on use of water or electricity, gas or any other form of energy or any other service or utility whatsoever serving the Premises or the Project.

Furthermore, Landlord shall be entitled, without any obligation or compensation to Tenant, to cooperate voluntarily in a reasonable manner with the efforts of national, state or local governmental agencies or service or utility suppliers in reducing the consumption of energy or other resources; if Landlord shall so cooperate, Tenant shall also reasonably cooperate therewith.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the tenth (10th) consecutive day of a failure to supply any of the services described in Section 4.1, to the extent within Landlord’s reasonable control, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Basic Monthly Rent beginning from the first day of such failure, until such time as such utilities are restored. If such utilities cannot be restored within forty-five (45) days, to the extent within Landlord’s control, Tenant may terminate this Lease by fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Landlord; provided, however, if Tenant does not elect to ATTACHMENT A 740
10 42893660v.16
terminate this Lease it shall be entitled to abate Basic Monthly Rental until such time as such utilities are restored, commencing on the tenth (10th) consecutive day of such failure to supply services.

4.4 Common Facilities. The term “Common Facilities” as used in this Lease means all areas and facilities within the exterior boundaries of the Project which are provided and designated from time to time by Landlord for the general use and convenience of Tenant and some or all other tenants of the Project and their respective employees, invitees or other visitors.

Tenant, its employees and invitees shall have the nonexclusive right to use the Common Facilities along with others entitled to use same, subject to Landlord’s rights and duties as hereinafter set forth and subject to the other provisions of this Lease. Without Tenant’s consent and without liability to Tenant, and provided that Landlord uses reasonable efforts to minimize any resultant interference with Tenant’s use of and access to the Premises, Landlord may do the following:
(a) Establish and enforce reasonable rules and regulations concerning the maintenance, management, use and operation of the Common Facilities; (b) Close off any of the Common Facilities to whatever extent required in the reasonable opinion of Landlord and its counsel to prevent a dedication of any of the Common Facilities or the accrual of any rights by any person or the public to the Common Facilities; provided, that in no event shall Tenant’s access to the Premises be completely or unreasonably restricted;
(c) Close any of the Common Facilities for maintenance, repair, alteration or improvement purposes;
(d) Select, appoint and/or contract with any person for the purpose of operating and maintaining the Common Facilities; and
(e) Change the size, use, shape or nature of any of the Common Facilities.

4.5 Parking. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right, so long as this Lease remains in full force and effect, and subject to applicable rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord from time to time, to use the number of reserved and unreserved parking spaces specified in the Basic Lease Provisions in the Parking Garage, upon such terms and conditions as may be specified in the Basic Lease Provisions. Landlord shall have certain rights and authority relating to the use and control of the Parking Garage, including, without limitation, the right to rearrange or relocate the parking spaces and improvements in the Parking Garage, to close all or any portion of the Parking Garage for the purpose of maintaining, repairing, restoring, altering or improving same, and to do and perform such other acts in, to and with respect to the Parking Garage at the sole discretion of Landlord; provided that, if Landlord closes all or any portion of the Parking Garage or relocates Tenant’s parking spaces, Landlord will use reasonable efforts to provide to Tenant alternate parking arrangements within a reasonable distance of the Parking Garage; provided, that such alternate parking arrangements must be within the Project. Tenant may not sell, assign or transfer its parking rights under this Lease, except pursuant to a Transfer (as defined in Section 8.1) consented to by Landlord or a Permitted Transfer (as defined in Section 8.3); provided, however, that Tenant may rent any or all of Tenant’s Spaces to any employees, consultants, advisors, vendors and subcontractors of Tenant working in the Building.

Tenant and its invitees, visitors and customers shall also have the right to use in common with ATTACHMENT A 741
11 42893660v.16
other tenants of the Building and their invitees, visitors and customers and the general public any portions of the Parking Garage designated for public use, subject to the rates, rules and regulations, and any other charges, fees and taxes to be collected by Landlord, for such Parking Garage. Landlord reserves the right to establish and alter, from time to time, all such rates, rules and regulations. Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty as to the suitability of the Parking Garage or as to the availability of parking spaces in the Parking Garage for the conduct of Tenant’s business except as set forth in the Basic Lease Provisions and in this Lease. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Tenant shall be solely responsible for the enforcement of its right to use the Reserved Spaces within the specified location in the Parking Garage, and Landlord shall not have any obligation or liability to Tenant therefor; provided, however, that Tenant hereby agrees to notify any employees or contractors that may be operating any Building security system of any enforcement action proposed to be taken by Tenant at least one (1) hour prior to Tenant taking such enforcement action and shall provide such employees and/or contractors with a summary of the enforcement action proposed to be taken. Landlord may, but is not required, to reasonably assist Tenant in the enforcement of its right to the Reserved Spaces if Tenant complies with the notice requirements contained in the immediately preceding sentence, requests such assistance and provides Landlord with the information necessary to permit Landlord or any employees or contractors that may be operating any Building security system to provide such assistance.

4.6 Excess Utilities. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, use in the Premises any apparatus, device, machine or equipment using excess water; nor shall Tenant connect any apparatus or device to sources of water except through existing water pipes in the Premises. If Tenant shall require excess water or any other resource (except for electricity and bandwidth for telecommunications) in excess of that customarily supplied for use of similar premises as general office space, service centers, and technology space, Tenant shall first request the consent of Landlord and obtain, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any additional consent required from governmental authorities. In the event that (i) Landlord gives its consent or (ii) Landlord determines, in Landlord’s sole judgment, that Tenant’s use of Premises has resulted in Tenant consuming excess water or any other resource (except for electricity and bandwidth for telecommunications) and, in either case any such additional governmental consent is obtained, then Landlord may cause a separate metering device to be installed in the Premises so as to measure the amount of the resource consumed within the Premises. The cost of any such separate metering device including, but not limited to, the cost of installation, maintenance and repair thereof shall be paid by Tenant. Tenant shall promptly pay the cost of all excess resources consumed within the Premises, together with any additional administrative expense incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Landlord be required to provide bandwith services to the Premises, and all such services shall be provided by Tenant (or Tenant shall arrange for the provision of such services), at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.

4.7 Payment as Additional Rent. Any sums payable under this Article 4 shall be considered Additional Rent and may be added to any installment of Rent thereafter becoming due, and Landlord shall have the same remedies for a default in payment of such sums as for a default in the payment of any other Rent.

4.8 Landlord to Maintain. Subject to the provisions of Sections 6.3 and 4.9 and Article 12, Landlord shall maintain in reasonably good order and condition the Common Facilities, Parking Garage, the foundation and structural portions of the Building (including, ATTACHMENT A 742
12 42893660v.16
without limitation, the structural soundness of the roof (structure and membrane), foundations, the exterior walls of the Building, and load bearing walls), and the Building systems providing the services and utilities to be furnished by Landlord pursuant to Section 4.1 above (including, without limitation, the Building HVAC, all wiring, plumbing, other conduits and utility lines and pipes).

4.9 Tenant to Maintain. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall be required to maintain and, if necessary or desirable, repair, at its sole cost and expense, with contractors approved by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) each of the Tenant’s HVAC chillers installed by Tenant (regardless of whether such chillers were installed prior or subsequent to the date hereof), which are used solely for the purpose of cooling all or any part of the technology or communications equipment on the Premises (collectively, the “Tenant’s HVAC Chillers”). In connection with Tenant’s maintenance or repair of the Tenant’s HVAC Chillers, Tenant shall be permitted access to Tenant’s HVAC Chillers upon twenty-four (24) hours prior written notice to Landlord, and, notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Tenant same-day access to Tenant’s HVAC Chillers for the purpose of maintaining or repairing same, if Tenant’s request for such access is received by Landlord between the hours of approximately 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding Landlord designated holidays; provided, however, that in the event of an emergency, access will be provided at other times as soon as practicable at Tenant’s cost.

4.10 Building Security; Premises Security. Tenant shall (or shall cause a third party to) provide, maintain and operate, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, a security system or service, which shall function as the primary security for the Premises at any time during which a Permitted City Council Meeting (as hereinafter defined) is to take place within the City Council Chambers (“Tenant’s Security”). All employees and contractors operating Tenant’s Security shall coordinate with Landlord and any employees and contractors operating any Building security system to ensure that Tenant’s Security does not interfere with, or unduly burden, the operation of any Building security system. If the security provided for the Building needs to be increased or additional Building security costs are incurred by Landlord as a result of any Permitted City Council Meeting occurring on Premises, or for any other reason in connection with Tenant’s use of Suite 124 as the City Council Chambers, then Tenant shall be responsible for, and shall promptly reimburse Landlord for, any such increased costs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall remain responsible for any costs for which Tenant is required to reimburse Landlord under the terms hereof in connection with Landlord’s maintenance and provision of any Building security. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted, at its sole discretion, cost and expense, to maintain and operate an additional security system or service within the Premises (including, but not limited to, placing additional security personnel within the Premises), which may, upon Tenant’s election, function as the primary security for the Premises (the “Optional Primary Security”). Upon such an election by Tenant, employees and contractors operating such Optional Primary Security for the Premises shall coordinate with Landlord and any employees and contractors operating any Building security system to ensure that (i) such Optional Primary Security does not interfere with, or unduly burden, the operation of any Building security system, and (ii), to the extent such Optional Primary Security (or any portion thereof) is in the form of an electronic security system rather than additional security personnel, Landlord (or Landlord’s property manager) has reasonable access to such Optional Primary Security (or applicable portion thereof), to ensure such Optional Primary Security (or ATTACHMENT A 743
13 42893660v.16
applicable portion thereof) does not unduly burden or interfere with any other tenant’s use and occupancy of the Building.

Upon request, Landlord will advise Tenant of Landlord’s approved contractor(s). After the date of execution of this Lease, if Tenant makes any alterations or improvements to the Premises, Tenant shall pay a construction administration fee, if any, owed to Landlord’s property manager pursuant to the then existing management agreement between Landlord and Landlord’s property manager.

All such sums paid by Landlord and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall be considered Additional Rent and shall be payable to it by Tenant on demand with interest at the Interest Rate (as defined in Section 2.2). Landlord may require, at Landlord’s sole option, that Tenant cause to be provided to Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, a performance and labor and materials payment bond acceptable to Landlord with respect to any improvements, additions or alterations to the Premises. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices permitted or required by applicable Regulation (defined below), or which Landlord shall deem proper, for the protection of Landlord, the Project and any other party having an interest therein from mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens, and Tenant shall give Landlord at least five (5) business days’ prior written notice of commencement of any work on the Premises.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default by Tenant occurs under this Section 7.2more than two (2) times in any calendar year, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Landlord under Article 13 hereof, Landlord may terminate Tenant’s right to use Suite 124 as the City Council Chambers for the remainder of the Lease Term, in which case, this Section 7.2 shall be of no further force or effect.

(a) Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Project which will, in any way, obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building, or injure or annoy them, or allow the Premises or the Project to be used for any improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain, or permit any nuisance or waste in, on, or about the Project.

ATTACHMENT A 747
17 42893660v.16
(b) Tenant shall not use the Premises or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises or the Project which shall: (i) conflict with any law, statute, ordinance, or governmental rule or regulation now in force or that may hereafter be enacted or promulgated (including without limitation the Americans with Disabilities Act, as the same may be amended from time to time), the requirements of the Certificate of Occupancy for the Building or with the requirements of any covenant, condition or restriction affecting the Project (collectively, “Regulations,” and individually, a “Regulation”); or (ii) except as a result of a Permitted Use, increase the rate for any fire insurance in effect for the Building or cause a cancellation of such insurance or otherwise negatively affect said insurance in any manner. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly comply with all Regulations in force or which may hereafter be in force, and with the requirements of any fire insurance underwriters or other similar body affecting the use and occupancy of the Premises; provided, that in no event shall Tenant be required to make any (x) structural improvements or capital expenditures, including, but not limited to, capital improvements, capital repairs, capital equipment, and capital tools, or (y) rental payments or other related expenses incurred in connection with leasing equipment ordinarily considered to be of capital nature to the Premises; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall be subject in all respects to any and all indemnification obligations of Tenant set forth herein.

7.4 [Intentionally Omitted].

7.5 Load and Equipment Limits. Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor of the Premises which exceeds the load per square foot which such floor was designed to carry, as determined by Landlord or Landlord’s structural engineer, but in no event greater than that allowed under the current applicable building code. The cost of any such determination made by Landlord’s structural engineer shall be paid for by Tenant upon demand. Tenant shall not install business machines or mechanical equipment which cause noise or vibration to such a degree as to be objectionable to Landlord or other Building tenants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant represents and warrants that Tenant has been in possession of the Premises prior to the execution of this Lease, and any and all improvements existing at the Premises, and equipment located at the Premises, is permitted and not in violation of this Lease. Additionally, as of the Commencement Date and for the duration of this Lease, any action taken by Tenant to maintain, supplement, improve or replace such improvements or equipment, as permitted under this Lease, will not be deemed to violate this Section 7.6.

7.6 Notice. Tenant shall give Landlord prompt notice of any damage to or defective condition in any part or appurtenance of the Building’s mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC or other systems serving, located in, or passing through the Premises.

7.7 Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay before delinquency all taxes, assessments, license fees, and other charges that are levied and assessed against Tenant’s trade fixtures and other personal property installed or located in or on the Premises, and that become payable during the Term (the “Personal Property Taxes”). On demand by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with satisfactory evidence of these payments. If any taxes on Tenant’s personal property are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property, or if the assessed value of the Building and other improvements in which the Premises are located is increased by the inclusion of a value placed on Tenant’s personal property or leasehold improvements, as determined by Landlord, and if Landlord pays the taxes on any of these items or the taxes based on the increased assessment of these items, Tenant, on demand, shall immediately reimburse Landlord ATTACHMENT A 748
18 42893660v.16
for the sum of the taxes levied against Landlord, or the proportion of the taxes resulting from the increase in Landlord’s assessment. Landlord shall have the right to pay (and Tenant shall have the obligation to reimburse Landlord for) any and all Personal Property Taxes regardless of the validity of the levy.

7.8 Real Estate Taxes. To the extent Real Estate Taxes (as hereinafter defined) are levied or assessed against the Project, Landlord shall pay before delinquency all such Real Estate Taxes; provided, however that Landlord shall have the right to undertake an action or proceeding against the applicable collecting authority seeking an abatement of Real Estate Taxes or a reduction in the valuation of the Project (or any portion thereof) and/or contest the applicability of any Real Estate Taxes. In any instance where any such permitted action or proceeding is being undertaken by Landlord, Tenant shall cooperate reasonably with Landlord, and execute any and all documents reasonably required in connection therewith. Landlord shall be entitled to any refund of Real Estate Taxes received by Tenant or Landlord, whether or not such refund was a result of actions or proceedings instituted by Landlord. As used herein the term “Real Estate Taxes” means any form of assessment, levy, charge, tax, or imposition imposed by any authority having the direct power to tax, including any city, county, state or federal government, or any school, agricultural, lighting, drainage or other improvement or special assessment district thereof, or any other governmental charge, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, which may be assessed against any legal or equitable interest of Landlord in the Project, but specifically excluding any and all Personal Property Taxes.

7.9 Possessory Tax. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall pay, before delinquency, all possessory interest or use taxes, assessments, or fees levied or assessed upon the Premises, or any portion thereof.

ARTICLE 8

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

8.1 Transfer. Tenant shall not cause or permit any of the following without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (any of the following, a “Transfer”): (a) assign, mortgage, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer, voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise, any interest in this Lease, the term or estate hereby granted, or any interest hereunder; (b) permit the Premises or any part thereof to be utilized by anyone other than Tenant (whether as concessionaire, franchisee, licensee, permittee or otherwise); or (c) except as hereinafter provided, sublet or offer or advertise for subletting the Premises or any part thereof. Tenant shall not permit any transferee to further assign, sublease, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer any such interest, without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent. In determining whether to grant consent to a Transfer, Landlord may consider various factors including, without limitation, the following:
(w) business criteria relating to the proposed transferee’s background, experience, reputation, general operating ability and ability to perform Lease obligations, and potential for succeeding in its business, (x) financial criteria relating to the proposed transferee’s financial responsibility, credit rating and capitalization, (y) the identity and personal characteristics of the proposed transferee and its invitees and guests, and (z) the nature of the proposed use and business of the proposed transferee and its effect on the tenant mix of the Building. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord hereby reserves the right to reasonably condition consent to any Transfer upon Landlord’s determination that (i) the proposed transferee is at least as ATTACHMENT A 749
19 42893660v.16
financially and morally responsible as Tenant then is, or was upon the execution hereof, whichever is greater, and (ii) the proposed transferee shall use the Premises in compliance with all applicable Regulations. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, but subject to Landlord’s agreement not to unreasonably withhold consent as set forth in the first sentence of this Section 8.1, Tenant shall not enter into any proposed Transfer (1) with a prospective tenant that is negotiating directly with Landlord to lease space in the Building, (2) at a time when Landlord is offering space for lease in the Building of similar size and for a similar term as that space being offered by Tenant for sublease or assignment within the Building, or (3) that would result in (A) detraction from the first-class character or image of the Building or diminution in the value thereof, (B) the Premises being occupied by more than one (1) tenant, or (C) a breach by Landlord of any then-existing exclusive right in favor of any other tenant of the Building, any loan obligation or agreement, any covenants, conditions and restrictions of record, or any insurance policy. Any Transfer entered into without Landlord’s consent, shall be voidable and, at Landlord’s election, shall constitute a default under this Lease. All Transfers are subject to Section 11.1.

8.2 Notice and Procedure. If at any time or from time to time during the Term, Tenant desires to enter into a Transfer, then at least thirty (30) days, but not more than one hundred twenty (120) days, prior to the date when Tenant desires the Transfer to be effective (the “Transfer Date”), Tenant shall give Landlord a notice (the “Notice”) which shall set forth the name, address and business of the proposed assignee or sublessee, information concerning the character of the proposed assignee or sublessee (including financial statements, business, credit and personal references and history), a detailed description of the space proposed to be assigned or sublet, which must be a single, self-contained unit (the “Space”), any rights of the proposed assignee or sublessee to use Tenant’s improvements, the intended Transfer Date, and the fixed rent and/or other consideration and all other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, all in such detail as Landlord may reasonably require. If Landlord reasonably requests reasonable additional detail, the Notice shall not be deemed to have been received until Landlord receives such reasonably requested reasonable additional detail. Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by giving notice to Tenant at any time within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Notice (the “Option Period”) (a) in the case of an assignment or sublease, to terminate this Lease as to the Space as of the Transfer Date, in which event Tenant shall be relieved of all further obligations hereunder as to the Space; or (b) in the case of a sublease, to sublease the Space from Tenant upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Notice, except that the rent shall be the lower of the per square foot Rent described in Articles 2 and 3 payable under this Lease for the Space, or that part of the rent and other consideration set forth in the Notice which is applicable to the Space. If Landlord exercises its option to sublet the Space, then Tenant shall sublet the Space to Landlord upon the terms and conditions set forth in clause (b) above; provided: (i) Landlord shall at all times under such sublease have the right and option further to sublet the Space without obtaining Tenant’s consent or sharing any of the economic consideration received by Landlord; (ii) the provisions of Section 7.2 shall not be applicable thereto; (iii) Landlord and its subtenants shall have the right to use in common with Tenant all lavatories, corridors and lobbies which are within the Premises and the use of which is reasonably required for the use of the Space; (iv) Tenant shall have no right of set-off or abatement or any other right to assert a default hereunder by reason of any default by Landlord under such sublease; and (v) Landlord’s liability under such sublease shall not be deemed assumed or taken subject to by any successor to Landlord’s interest under this Lease. Should Landlord fail to exercise either option within the Option Period, such failure shall not constitute Landlord’s consent to the Transfer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the ATTACHMENT A 750
20 42893660v.16
foregoing Landlord recapture right shall not apply to any proposed sublease of a portion of the Premises for a term of one (1) year or less. If Landlord elects not to exercise either option, then Tenant shall be free to enter into the Transfer subject to the following conditions:
(a) The Transfer shall be on the same terms set forth in the Notice given to Landlord;
(b) No Transfer shall be valid and no assignee or sublessee shall take possession of the Space until Landlord has consented in writing to the Transfer and an executed counterpart of the assignment or sublease has been delivered to Landlord; (c) In no event shall any assignee or sublessee (with the exception of Landlord should Landlord elect to sublet the Space pursuant to subsection (b) above) have a right to further assign or sublet the Space;
(d) The Transfer shall not result in more than two portions of the Premises being sublet at any one time during the Term by more than two different sublessees; (e) If the Lease shall be assigned, or the Premises shall be sublet, Landlord may collect Rent directly from any such assignee or sublessee, as the case may be, in the event of default by Tenant; and
(f) Fifty percent (50%) of any sums or other economic consideration received by Tenant as a result of any Transfer, whether denominated rent or otherwise, which exceed, in the aggregate, the total sums which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease (prorated as to any sublease to reflect obligations allocable to that portion of the Premises subject to such sublease) shall be payable to Landlord as Additional Rent under this Lease, without affecting or reducing any other obligation of Tenant hereunder. Amounts payable under this Section by Tenant to Landlord shall be based on figures net of any costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the transaction in question. The provisions of this Section shall apply regardless of whether the Transfer is made in compliance with the provisions of this Lease. Any payments made to Landlord pursuant to this Section shall not cure any default under this Lease arising from any Transfer. Tenant shall not artificially structure any Transfer in order to reduce the amount payable to Landlord under this Section, nor shall Tenant take any other steps for the purpose of circumventing its obligation to pay amounts to Landlord under this Section; in the event that Tenant does same, Tenant shall be in default of this Lease and the amount payable to Landlord under this Section shall be the amount that would have been payable to Landlord had same not occurred plus a late fee on such amount (as described in Section 2.3). Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a statement within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar year in which any part of the Term occurs specifying as to such calendar year, and within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, specifying with respect to the elapsed portion of the calendar year in which such expiration or termination occurs, each Transfer in effect during the period covered by such statement and the date of its execution and delivery, the number of square feet of the rentable area demised thereby, and the term thereof; and a computation in reasonable detail showing: (i) the amounts (if any) paid and payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Article 8 with respect to any Transfer for the period covered by such statement, and (ii) the amounts (if any) paid and payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Article 8 with respect to any payments received from a sublessee or assignee during such period but which relate to an earlier period.

ATTACHMENT A 751
21 42893660v.16

8.3 Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall have the right, without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, but subject to the terms hereof, to do any of the following (each, a “Permitted Transfer”) (i) transfer to a Permitted Transferee any interest in this Lease, the term or estate hereby granted, or any interest hereunder or (ii) sublet the Premises or any part thereof to a Permitted Transferee. For the purposes hereof, a “Permitted Transferee” means an entity that (a) controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant, (b) results from the transfer of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets or stock, or (c) results from the merger or consolidation of Tenant with another entity. If Tenant desires to enter into a Permitted Transfer, Tenant shall, as a condition to the effectiveness of such Permitted Transfer hereunder, at least thirty (30) days prior to the date when Tenant desires the Permitted Transfer to be effective, provide Landlord with written notice of such Permitted Transfer, together with detailed evidence of the financial condition of the Permitted Transferee, the proposed form of sublease or assignment and such other information as Landlord, in the exercise of its business judgment, shall request. As used in this Section, “control” means ownership of voting securities sufficient to elect a majority of the board of directors of a corporation, or analogous ownership interests of non-corporate entities.

8.4 Continuing Liability of Tenant. Regardless of Landlord’s consent to a Transfer or Tenant entering into a Permitted Transfer, no subletting, assignment or other transfer shall release Tenant’s obligation or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof.

Consent to one Transfer shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent Transfer. If any assignee of Tenant or any successor of Tenant defaults in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee or successor. In no event shall Landlord’s enforcement of any provision of this Lease against any assignee be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to enforce any term of this Lease against Tenant or any other person. Landlord may consent to subsequent Transfers or amendments or modifications to this Lease with assignees of Tenant, without notifying Tenant, any successor of Tenant, or any guarantor under this Lease, and without obtaining its or their consent thereto, and such action shall not relieve Tenant of its liability under this Lease.

8.5 Bankruptcy Case. Tenant filed a petition for chapter 9 relief on June 28, 2012, which case is pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of California (the “Bankruptcy Court”) under Case No. 12-32118 (the “Bankruptcy Case”). Tenant hereby represents and warrants that it has received any Bankruptcy Court approval legally required to enter into this Lease and to honor all of its obligations hereunder.

8.6 Subsequent Bankruptcy Case. In the event that the Bankruptcy Case is dismissed, and Tenant subsequently files another petition for chapter 9 relief (initiating the “Subsequent Bankruptcy Case”) and an order for relief is entered in the Subsequent Bankruptcy Case, Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code shall apply to the Lease. In addition to the requirements of Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, if Tenant proposes to assume and assign this Lease pursuant to Section 365 to any person or entity who has made or accepted a bona fide offer to accept an assignment of the Lease on terms acceptable to Tenant, then notice of the proposed assignment setting forth (a) the name and address of the proposed assignee, (b) all of the terms and conditions of the offer and proposed assignment, and (c) the adequate assurance to be furnished by the proposed assignee of its future performance under the Lease, shall be given to Landlord by Tenant no later than twenty (20) days after Tenant has made or received such offer, but in no ATTACHMENT A 752
22 42893660v.16
event later than ten (10) days prior to the date on which Tenant applies to a court of competent jurisdiction for authority and approval to enter into the proposed assignment. Landlord shall have the prior right and option, to be exercised by notice to Tenant given at any time prior to the date on which the court order authorizing such assignment becomes final and non-appealable, to receive an assignment of this Lease upon the same terms and conditions, and for the same consideration, if any, as the proposed assignee, less any brokerage commissions which may otherwise be payable out of the consideration to be paid by the proposed assignee for the assignment of this Lease. If this Lease is assigned in a Subsequent Bankruptcy Case pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, Landlord (i) may require from the assignee a deposit or other security for the performance of its obligations under this Lease in an amount substantially the same as would have been required by Landlord upon the initial leasing to a tenant similar to the assignee; and (ii) shall receive, as Additional Rent, the sums and economic consideration described in this Article 8. Any person or entity to which this Lease is assigned, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be deemed, without further act or documentation, to have assumed all of the Tenant’s obligations arising under this Lease on and after the date of such assignment. Any such assignee shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument confirming such assumption. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s rights or remedies under the Bankruptcy Code to oppose any assumption and/or assignment of this Lease, to require a timely performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, or to regain possession of the Premises if this Lease has neither been assumed nor rejected within sixty (60) days after the date of the order for relief or within such additional time as a court of competent jurisdiction may have fixed. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, all amounts payable by Tenant to or on behalf of Landlord under this Lease, whether or not expressly denominated as Rent, shall constitute rent for the purposes of Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code.

8.7 Fees to Landlord. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee of $1,000 plus Landlord’s costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’, accountants’, architects’, engineers’ and consultants’ fees in an amount not to exceed $2,000) incurred in connection with the processing and documentation of any Transfer (whether or not the Transfer is approved by Landlord or actually occurs) or any Permitted Transfer.

ARTICLE 9

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Tenant’s Waiver of Claims and Indemnity. Tenant, to the extent permitted by applicable Regulation, waives all claims for loss, theft or damage to property and for injuries to persons, including death, in, upon or about the Premises or the Project, from any cause whatsoever except loss, damage or injury caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, whether caused by water leakage of any character from the roof, walls, basement or any other portion of the Premises or the Project, or by gas, fire, oil or electricity, or by any interruption of utilities or services, or by any tenant, occupant or other person, or by any other cause whatsoever in, on or about the Premises or the Project. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Lease, neither Landlord, nor its members, officers, agents, managers, contractors, servants, employees or invitees (collectively, with Landlord, the “Landlord Parties”) shall in any event be liable for consequential damages hereunder. Tenant indemnifies, defends, protects and holds Landlord and the other Landlord Parties harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, damage or ATTACHMENT A 753
23 42893660v.16
expense (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising out of or resulting from Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, the Building, the Common Facilities or any other area within the Project (including, but not limited to, any additional expense that may be incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s use of Suite 124 as the City Council Chambers, which expense Landlord would not otherwise have incurred if Suite 124 was used solely for general office purposes between the hours of approximately 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.), including, but not limited to, if caused by, or resulting from, any act or omission of any agent, employee or third-party contractor of Tenant, whether prior to, or following, the Lease Commencement Date, other than that caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its partners, agents, servants or employees. If any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord or any other Landlord Party by reason of any such matter, Tenant shall, upon Landlord’s request, defend same at Tenant’s expense by counsel selected by Tenant that is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

9.2 Negligence of Third Parties. Neither Landlord nor any other Landlord Party shall be liable to Tenant for any damage by or from any act of negligence of any tenant or other occupant of the Project, except as set forth in Section 9.3. Tenant agrees to pay for all damage to the Premises or the Project, as well as all damage to tenants or occupants thereof caused by Tenant’s misuse, overuse, overloading or neglect of the Premises or the Project, the apparatus, improvements or appurtenances thereof, or caused by any licensee, contractor, agent, guest, invitee or employee of Tenant.

9.3 Landlord Indemnity. Landlord shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless Tenant and its agents, from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, costs, damages, injuries or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees or invitees.

ARTICLE 10

INSURANCE

10.1 Insurance to be Carried by Tenant. Tenant shall during the Term, at its sole cost and expense, obtain and maintain the following types of insurance:
(a) A policy or policies of property insurance in the name of Tenant covering Tenant’s leasehold improvements and any property of Tenant located on, or used in connection with, the Premises, including, but not limited to, furniture, additions and fixtures, and providing protection against all perils included within the classification of fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, theft, terrorism, special extended peril (all risk) and sprinkler leakage, in an amount equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the replacement cost thereof from time to time (including, without limitation, cost of debris removal), with an agreed amount endorsement, and providing protection against loss of income and extra expense; (b) Commercial general liability insurance with a combined single limit of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence in the name of Tenant (naming Landlord as an additional insured thereunder, and, if requested by Landlord, naming any manager of any of the Premises or the Project, and any mortgagee, trust deed holder, ground lessor or secured party with an interest in this Lease, or any portion of the Project, as additional insureds thereunder); such policy shall specifically include, without limitation, personal injury, broad form property ATTACHMENT A 754
24 42893660v.16
damage, and contractual liability coverage, the last of which shall cover the insuring provisions of this Lease and the performance by Tenant of the indemnity agreements in Article 9 above; such policy shall contain cross-liability endorsements and shall provide coverage on an occurrence basis; the amount of such insurance required hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as reasonably requested by Landlord;
(c) Worker’s Compensation insurance coverage as required by applicable Regulation, together with employer’s liability insurance coverage; (d) Business Interruption insurance in such amounts as will reimburse Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earnings attributable to all perils commonly insured against by prudent tenants (in the reasonable judgment of Landlord or its lenders (“Landlord’s Lenders”) or attributable to prevention of access to the Premises or to the Building as a result of such perils; and
(e) Any other form or forms of insurance as Landlord or Landlord’s Lenders may reasonably require from time to time in form, in amounts and for insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would protect itself (in the reasonable judgment of Landlord or Landlord’s Lenders) , provided that if Tenant elects to insure under a Joint Powers Agreement as permitted by this Section 10.1 such other forms of insurance as may become required pursuant to this Section 10.1(e) shall only be required if provided for under the Joint Powers Agreement.

Each policy evidencing insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Article shall contain a provision showing Landlord, Landlord’s Lenders and Landlord’s property manager, and any other parties in interest as designated by Landlord, as additional named insureds.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 10 to the contrary, at the inception of this Lease and for the duration of this Lease if so elected by Tenant, Tenant shall be permitted to maintain, in lieu of any insurance required hereunder, self-insurance or other insurance coverage programs including without limitation an insurance pooling arrangement or Joint Powers Agreement; provided, however, that (a) Tenant shall be required to maintain commercial general liability insurance as required under Sections 10.1(b) and 10.2 in the amount of any self-insured retention or deductible provided for under the Joint Powers Agreement; and (b) the right to self-insure shall not be granted to any assignee of Tenant.

10.2 Policy Forms and Delivery. Unless otherwise maintained by Tenant as permitted under Section 10.1, all policies shall be taken out from insurers licensed in California, acceptable to Landlord and in form satisfactory to Landlord. All policies must be issued by insurers with a policy holder rating of “A-VIII” or better and a financial rating of “X” in the most recent version of Best’s Key Rating Guide. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any deductible amounts under said policies shall be subject to Landlord’s approval. Tenant agrees that certificates of such insurance shall be delivered to Landlord as soon as practicable after the placing of the required insurance, but in no event later than thirty (30) days prior to the date Tenant takes possession of the Premises. All policies shall require at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord, and to any other additional insureds thereunder, by the insurer prior to termination, cancellation or material change in such insurance. Tenant shall, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any of such policies, furnish Landlord with a renewal or binder therefor. Tenant may carry insurance under a so-called “blanket” policy, provided that such policy provides that the amount of insurance required hereunder shall not be prejudiced by ATTACHMENT A 755
25 42893660v.16
other losses covered thereby, and as otherwise approved by Landlord. All insurance policies carried by Tenant shall be primary with respect to, and non-contributory with, any other insurance available to Landlord. Such policies shall provide that the interests of Landlord and any other additional insureds designated by Landlord shall not be invalidated due to any breach or violation of any warranties, representations or declarations contained in such policies or the applications therefor. Upon failure of Tenant to procure, maintain and place such insurance and pay all premiums and charges therefor, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, purchase such insurance, and in such event, Tenant shall pay all premiums and charges therefor to Landlord as Additional Rent within five (5) days after demand.

10.3 Use of Proceeds. In the event of damage or destruction to the leasehold improvements in the Premises covered by insurance required to be taken out by Tenant pursuant to this Article, Tenant shall use the proceeds of such insurance for the purposes of repairing or restoring such leasehold improvements. In the event of damage or destruction of the Building entitling Landlord or Tenant to terminate this Lease pursuant to Article 12 hereof, if the Premises have also been damaged, Tenant will pay to Landlord that portion of its insurance proceeds relating to the leasehold improvements in the Premises that were paid for by Landlord.

10.4 Landlord’s Insurance. During the Term, Landlord shall keep and maintain property insurance for the Project in such amounts, and with such coverages, and Landlord may keep and maintain such other insurance (including, but not limited to, earthquake insurance), as Landlord may reasonably determine or as any of Landlord’s Lenders may require. Tenant acknowledges that it shall not be a named insured in such policies and that it has no right to receive any proceeds from any such insurance policies carried by Landlord. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Landlord shall not be required to carry insurance covering the property described in Subsection 10.1(a) above or covering flood or earthquake.

10.5 Waiver of Subrogation; Indemnities. Landlord and Tenant waive their respective right of recovery against the other and their respective managers, officers, directors, partners, agents and employees to the extent damage or liability is insured against under a policy or policies of insurance required to be carried hereunder, whether or not such damage or liability may be attributable to the negligence or act of either party or its respective agents, invitees, contractors, servants or employees. Such waiver by each party shall be effective for the benefit of the other party notwithstanding any failure by the waiving party to carry the insurance required by the provisions of this Lease. Each insurance policy required to be carried by either Landlord or Tenant shall include such a waiver of the insurer’s rights of subrogation. Where liability or damage to the Premises is insured against under both the policy or policies of insurance carried by Landlord and the policy or policies of insurance carried by Tenant, to the extent that insurance proceeds are available from the policy or policies of insurance carried by the party bearing the responsibility to indemnify with respect to such liability or damage, such waiver shall not limit, restrict or alter any indemnity made by Landlord or Tenant hereunder and the insurance proceeds available from the policy or policies of insurance carried by the party bearing responsibility to indemnify with respect to such liability or damage shall be applied to the liability or the repair of such damage prior to the application of the insurance proceeds available from the policy or policies of insurance carried by the other party.

10.6 Premium Increases. Tenant shall pay any increases in insurance premiums relating to property in the Project (whether such insurance is maintained by Landlord or Tenant) ATTACHMENT A 756
26 42893660v.16
to the extent that any such increase is specified by the insurance carrier as being caused by Tenant’s acts or omissions or use or occupancy of the Premises.

10.7 Landlord’s Insurance.
(a) Liability Insurance. During the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense obtain and keep in full force and effect comprehensive general liability insurance insuring Landlord against any and all liability arising out of its control of the Project. Said insurance shall be in an aggregate coverage amount equal to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), with excess general liability insurance coverage of Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000). Any insurance policies hereunder may be “blanket policies.” (b) Property Insurance. During the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall obtain and keep in force during the Term a policy or policies of insurance covering loss or damage to the Building and the Project exclusive of the cost of excavations, foundations and footings, in the amount of Forty-Three Million Dollars ($43,000,000), or such lesser amount deemed sufficient by Landlord to protect its interest in the Project, providing protection against all perils included within the classification of fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, plate glass (subject to the perils of the basic policy), sprinkler leakage, earthquake caused sprinkler leakage, and such other perils as Landlord deems advisable or may be required by a lender having a lien on the Building.

ARTICLE 11
TRANSFER OF LANDLORD’S INTEREST

11.1 Transfer Rights. In the event of a transfer of all or any portion of Landlord’s interest in this Lease or the Project, other than a transfer for security purposes only, Landlord shall, upon consummation of such transfer, be released from any liability relating to obligations or covenants thereafter to be performed or observed under this Lease, and, in such event, Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlord’s successor in interest with respect to any such liability.

Landlord may transfer or credit any security deposit or prepaid Rent to Landlord’s successor in interest, and upon such transfer or credit Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability therefor, provided that Landlord’s successor-in-interest expressly acknowledges the rights of Tenant, as tenant, under this Lease.

11.2 Tenant Cooperation. If Landlord transfers the Project to a governmental or nonprofit entity that is able to utilize tax-exempt financing to purchase the Project, then Tenant covenants and agrees to reasonably cooperate, at no cost or expense to Tenant, with Landlord and the prospective purchaser in order to facilitate the issuance of tax exempt debt. Any right of the Tenant to transfer or sublease all or any portion of the Premises pursuant to Article 8 is subject to this covenant, and if the Tenant has entered into a sublease that, in the reasonable discretion of a prospective purchaser, precludes the use of tax exempt financing, then Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts, at no cost or expense to Tenant, to terminate or amend any such sublease arrangement to help facilitate the issuance of such tax exempt debt.

ARTICLE 12

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

12.1 Repair or Termination.
(a) If the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty of the type insured by Landlord, then the damage shall be repaired by Landlord, provided such repairs can reasonably be made within one hundred twenty (120) days after the commencement of repairs without the payment of overtime or other premiums and that the insurance proceeds are sufficient to pay the costs of such repairs. Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the damage if Landlord concludes the damage can be so repaired. Until such repairs are completed, Basic Monthly Rent shall be abated in proportion to the part of the Premises which is unusable by Tenant in the conduct of its business (but there shall be no abatement of Rent by reason of any portion of the Premises being unusable for a period of fifteen (15) days or less). If the damage is due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or its employees, then there shall be no abatement of Rent. Except for such rental abatement, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord with respect to any such damage or repairs. If Landlord is required or elects to restore the Premises, then Landlord shall not be required to restore alterations made by Tenant, Tenant’s improvements, trade fixtures or personal property, including but not limited to any paneling, decorations, railings, floor coverings, alterations, additions or fixtures installed on the Premises by or at the expense of Tenant, such items being the sole responsibility of Tenant to restore, and any damage caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any of its agents, contractors, employees, invitees or guests shall be promptly repaired by Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord.
(b) Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make any such repairs if such failure is caused by accidents, strikes, lockouts or other conditions beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.
(c) If such repairs cannot reasonably be made within such one hundred twenty (120) days with or without the payment of overtime or other premiums, or if such repairs will cost more than the available insurance proceeds, then Landlord may, at its option, make such repairs within a reasonable time, and, in such event, this Lease shall continue in effect and the Basic Monthly Rent shall be abated in the manner provided above. Landlord’s election to make such repairs must be evidenced by written notice to Tenant advising Tenant within forty five (45) days after the occurrence of the damage whether or not Landlord will make such repairs. If Landlord does not so elect to make such repairs then Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the damage, terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage and Landlord shall refund to Tenant any Rent previously paid for any period of time subsequent to such termination. (d) With respect to any damage and repairs, Tenant waives the provisions of Section 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the Civil Code of California or any successor statute thereto or similar statute hereinafter enacted.
(e) All proceeds of any insurance maintained by Tenant or Landlord upon the Premises (including insurance on Tenant improvements) shall be used to pay for the repairs to ATTACHMENT A 758
28 42893660v.16
the property covered by said insurance, to the extent that repairs are made pursuant to this Article.
(f) Landlord shall not have any obligation whatsoever to repair, reconstruct, or restore the Premises or any portion of the Building when the damage occurs during the last eighteen (18) months of the Term.

12.2 Loss of Enjoyment. No damages, compensation or claim shall be payable by Landlord to Tenant for any inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance of Tenant arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises or the Project, including, but not limited to, the Building or the Common Facilities, performed by Landlord or its agents. Landlord shall use good faith efforts to effect such repair or restoration promptly and in such manner as not unreasonably to interfere with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises.

12.3 Automatic Termination. A total destruction of the Building shall automatically terminate this Lease as of the date of such total destruction.

ARTICLE 13

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

13.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:
(a) Any failure by Tenant to pay any Rent, as and when due, where such failure continues for three (3) days after written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant; (b) The abandonment of the Premises, or any significant portion thereof, by Tenant;
(c) The appointment of a 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 forty-five (45) days; 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 forty-five (45) days; (d) Any failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of its obligations under that certain Real Property Option Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions of even date herewith entered into by and between Four Hundred Main Street LLC and Tenant; (e) If any mechanics’ lien is filed or recorded against the Project or the Premises, and such lien results from the actions or omissions of Tenant or any subtenant (or any contractor, consultant, agent, employee, or invitee of Tenant or any subtenant), and Tenant fails either to (i) cause any such mechanics’ lien to be released within ten (10) business days after the date the same comes to the attention of Tenant or to (ii) post a bond or other security agreement in the amount of such mechanics’ lien, in the event Tenant elects, in its sole discretion, to dispute same;
(f) At Landlord’s sole option, Tenant’s failure to observe or perform according to the provisions of Article 10 (excluding any provision regarding payment of Rent, ATTACHMENT A 759
29 42893660v.16
which shall be governed by Subsection (a) above), Article 15, Section 18.11, or Section 7.2 hereof within (10) days after demand from Landlord; and (g) Any failure by Tenant to observe and perform any other provision of this Lease (other than the provisions described in (a) through (f) of this Section 13.1) or the Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Exhibit “C”, where such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that in the event that any such cure cannot reasonably be completed within such thirty (30) day period, and provided further that Tenant has commenced and is diligently pursuing such cure, Tenant shall have an additional period of thirty (30) days to complete such cure.

The notices referred to in Subsections (a) and (g) above, shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under Section 1161, et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any successor statute thereto or similar statute hereinafter enacted

13.2 Landlord’s Remedies.
(a) In the event of any default by Tenant, as defined herein, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the immediate option to (but shall not be obligated to) terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving Tenant written notice of such election to terminate; provided, that Tenant has been afforded all applicable notice and cure periods permitted under this Lease. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant all of the following, to the extent permitted by applicable Regulations:
(i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) 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 that portion of rental loss which Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss which Tenant proves reasonably could be avoided; plus
(iv) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, unamortized brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and advertising expenses incurred by Landlord (in each case regarding both this Lease and any new lease with any new tenant regarding the Premises), any expenses of remodeling the Premises and the cost of restoring said Premises to the condition required under this Lease; plus (v) At Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable Regulations.

For purposes of Subsection 13.2(a), the “time of award” means the date upon which the judgment in any action brought by Landlord against Tenant by reason of such default is entered or such earlier date as the court may determine. As used in (i) and (ii) above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the maximum interest rate allowed by ATTACHMENT A 760
30 42893660v.16
applicable Regulation. As used in (iii) above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank at San Francisco at the time of award, plus one (1) percentage point. Tenant agrees that such charges shall be recoverable by Landlord under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1174(b) or any similar, successor or related Regulation. Further, Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1174(c) and California Civil Code Section 1951.7 or any other similar, successor or related Regulation providing for Tenant’s right to satisfy any judgment in order to prevent a forfeiture of this Lease or requiring Landlord to deliver written notice to Tenant of any reletting of the Premises.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, including, but not limited to, anything contained in clause (ii) or (iii) above, Landlord hereby acknowledges that Tenant is a municipality, and, as a result thereof, certain Landlord remedies set forth in this Section 13.2(a) may not be enforceable under applicable Regulations, including, but not limited to, under Article XVI, Section 18(a) of the California Constitution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that, in accordance with the terms hereof, Landlord shall be entitled to receive all remedies under this Lease to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Regulations. This Section 13.2(a) is subject to the express condition that at no time shall Tenant be required to pay to Landlord any amount under the terms hereof that could subject Landlord to either civil or criminal liability as a result of such amount being in excess of the amount permitted by applicable Regulations. If by the terms of this Section 13.2(a), Tenant is at any time required or obligated to make a payment to Landlord in excess of the amount permitted by applicable Regulations, then such remedies expressly permitted hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent required by applicable Regulations. (b) In the event of any such default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right, with or without terminating this Lease, to reenter the Premises to remove all persons and property from the Premises. Such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant, and such property shall be released only upon Tenant’s payment of such charges, together with all sums due and owing under this Lease.

If Tenant does not reclaim such property within the period permitted by applicable Regulation, Landlord may sell such property in accordance with applicable Regulation and apply the proceeds of such sale to any sums due and owing hereunder, or retain said property, granting Tenant credit against sums due and owing hereunder for the reasonable value of such property. (c) In the event of the abandonment of the Premises by Tenant or in the event of any default by Tenant, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in this Section and, until Landlord does elect to terminate this Lease, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease. Specifically, Landlord has the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations).
(d) Landlord shall not, by any reentry or other act, be deemed to have accepted any surrender by Tenant of the Premises or Tenant’s interest therein, or be deemed to have terminated this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, unless Landlord shall have notified Tenant in writing that it has so elected to terminate this Lease.

ATTACHMENT A 761
31 42893660v.16
(e) Landlord may suspend or discontinue all or any of the services specified in Article 4 during the continuance of any default of the Lease; and no such suspension or discontinuance will be deemed or construed to be an eviction, constructive or actual, or an ejection of Tenant.
(f) If Landlord reenters the Premises, Tenant shall have no claims for damages that may be caused by Landlord’s reentering or removing and storing the property of Tenant, and indemnifies, defends, protects and holds Landlord harmless from all losses, costs, expenses (including attorney’s fees and court costs) or damages occasioned by Landlord. No such entry shall be considered or deemed to be a forcible entry by Landlord. (g) All rights, options, and remedies of Landlord contained in this Lease shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one of them shall be exclusive of the other, and Landlord shall have the right to pursue any one or all of such remedies or any other remedy or relief which may be provided by applicable Regulations, whether or not stated in this Lease. The exercise of any one or more of such rights or remedies shall not impair Landlord’s right to exercise any other right or remedy including, without limitation, any and all rights and remedies of Landlord under California Civil Code Section 1951.8, California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 et seq., or any similar, successor or related Regulation. (h) Nothing in this Section 13.2, and no termination pursuant to any other provision of this Lease, shall be deemed to affect Landlord’s right to indemnification for liability or liabilities arising prior to the termination of this Lease under the indemnification clause or clauses contained in this Lease.
(i) Tenant hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any sublessee, upon receipt of a written notice from Landlord stating that Tenant is in default hereunder, to pay to Landlord directly the rent and income due and to become due under such sublease. Tenant agrees that such sublessee shall have the right to rely upon any such statement and request by Landlord, and that such sublessee shall pay rent and income to Landlord without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether such default exists and notwithstanding any notice or claim from Tenant to the contrary. Tenant shall have no right or claim against such sublessee or Landlord for any such rent or income so paid by such sublessee to Landlord. Landlord shall not, by reason of any direct collection of rent or income from a sublessee, be deemed liable to such sublessee for any failure of Tenant to perform and comply with any of Tenant’s obligations under such sublease.
(j) To the extent permitted by applicable Regulation, Tenant hereby waives all provisions of, or protection under, any Regulations of the State of California or other applicable jurisdiction to the extent same are inconsistent and in conflict with specific terms and provisions hereof.

13.3 Landlord’s Event of Default.
(a) Unless a shorter period of time is specified by which Landlord is required to perform an obligation under this Lease, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default under this Lease unless and until it has failed to perform any of its obligations hereunder within thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord specifying the manner in which Landlord has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its performance, ATTACHMENT A 762
32 42893660v.16
then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion. In the event of a default by Landlord hereunder, the extent of Landlord’s liability shall be strictly limited to and shall not extend beyond Landlord’s interest in the Building. (b) If Landlord fails to cure a default within the time period described in this Lease, and if such default renders all or any part of the Premises untenantable or unusable for Tenant’s ordinary business, Tenant shall have the option to cure the default, in addition to any other remedies permitted by applicable Regulations. Should Tenant elect to cure the default, all reasonable costs associated with such cure, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (if any), shall be reimbursed by Landlord to Tenant following receipt of Tenant’s invoice for said costs. If Landlord’s default hereunder prevents Tenant’s use of the Premises in accordance with the Permitted Uses set forth in Section 10 of the Basic Lease Provisions, there shall be an abatement of Basic Monthly Rent for the period of such non-use.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Lease, and subject to the terms of the Order Appointing Receiver, it is specifically understood and agreed, such agreement being a primary consideration for the execution of this Lease by Landlord, that (a) there shall be absolutely no personal liability on the part of Landlord or any other Landlord Party (as hereinafter defined) to Tenant with respect to any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, (b) Tenant waives all claims, demands and causes of action (collectively, the “Claims”) against Landlord and the other Landlord Parties in the event of any breach by Landlord of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Landlord, other than Claims against Landlord based on Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (c) Tenant shall look solely to the Premises, and any other portion of the Property, as such terms is defined in the Order Appointing Receiver, for the satisfaction of each and every remedy of Tenant in the event of any breach by Landlord of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Landlord, or any other matter in connection with this Lease or the Premises, such exculpation of liability to be absolute and without any exception whatsoever.

ARTICLE 14

EMINENT DOMAIN
If (i) twenty five percent (25%) or more of the rentable space in the Building or Parking Garage, or (ii) after restoration, such portion of the Premises as in Tenant’s reasonable judgment makes the balance of the Premises untenantable or otherwise unsuitable for Tenant’s use and requirements, shall be lawfully taken or condemned or conveyed under threat of such taking or condemnation, for any public or quasi-public use or purpose (such taking, condemnation or conveyance being referred to herein as a “Taking”), then either party hereto may immediately terminate this Lease by serving written notice upon the other party hereto within thirty (30) days thereafter. If twenty five percent (25%) or more of the Project excluding the Premises shall be taken or appropriated under the power of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof, Landlord may so terminate this Lease by serving written notice upon the other party hereto within thirty (30) days thereafter. Tenant shall not be required to assign to Landlord any portion of an award/settlement made by reason of such Taking to Tenant. If a material part of the Building is condemned or taken or if a substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall, in Landlord’s opinion, be necessary or desirable as a result of such Taking, Landlord may terminate ATTACHMENT A 763
33 42893660v.16
this Lease by written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of the Taking. If a part of the Premises shall be so taken, appropriated or conveyed and neither party hereto shall elect to so terminate this Lease, (a) Basic Monthly Rent payable hereunder shall be abated in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises so taken, appropriated or conveyed bears to the rentable area of the entire Premises, and (b) if the Premises shall have been damaged as a consequence of such partial taking, appropriation or conveyance, Landlord shall, to the extent of any severance damages received by Landlord, restore the Premises continuing under this Lease; however, Landlord shall not be required to repair or restore any damage to the property of Tenant or to make any repairs to or restoration of any alterations, additions, fixtures or improvements installed on the Premises by or at the expense of Tenant, and Tenant shall pay any amount in excess of such severance damages required to complete such repairs or restoration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, if the temporary use or occupancy of any part of the Premises shall be taken or appropriated under the power of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof during the Term, this Lease shall be and remain unaffected by such taking, appropriation or conveyance and Tenant shall continue to pay in full all Rent payable hereunder by Tenant during the Term; in the event of any such temporary taking, appropriation or conveyance, Tenant shall be entitled to receive a separate award (not reducing Landlord’s award) as compensation for loss of the use or occupancy of the Premises during the Term. To the extent that it is inconsistent with the above, each party waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the superior court to terminate the Lease in the event of a partial taking of the Premises.

ARTICLE 15

SUBORDINATION
Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, this Lease is subject and subordinate to all declarations of restrictions, ground leases, deeds of trust or other security interests of any kind now or hereafter encumbering or affecting the Project or any portion thereof; subject, however, to the qualification that so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, its peaceful use and occupancy of the Premises under this Lease shall not be impaired, restricted or terminated by any such mortgagee, beneficiary, secured party or ground lessor whose interest arises after the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated any such ground leases, deeds of trust or other security interests to this Lease.

In the event of foreclosure or exercise of any power of sale under any deed of trust superior to this Lease, Tenant, upon demand, shall attorn to the purchaser at any foreclosure sale or sale pursuant to the exercise of any power of sale, in which event this Lease shall not terminate and Tenant shall automatically be and become the tenant of the purchaser; provided, however, no landlord or purchaser at any foreclosure sale or sale pursuant to the exercise of any power of sale, or any successor thereto shall be liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including Landlord) or be subject to any offsets, counterclaims, or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including Landlord), or be bound by any Rent which Tenant might have paid in advance to any prior landlord (including Landlord) for a period in excess of one month or by any Security Deposit or other prepaid charge which Tenant might have paid in advance to any prior landlord (including Landlord), or be bound by an agreement or modification of this Lease made after Tenant has written notice of the interest of such party, without the prior written consent of such party, or be obligated to repair the Premises in the event of total or substantial damage beyond that which can reasonably be accomplished from the net proceeds of ATTACHMENT A 764
34 42893660v.16
insurance made available to such landlord. Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, not less than ten (10) business days after demand by Landlord or any lienholder or successor in interest, and in a commercially reasonable form requested thereby, any commercially reasonable additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease and the attornment of Tenant with respect to any such ground leases, deeds of trust or other security interests; provided, that such entities agree to the non-disturbance of Tenant’s rights as tenant under this Lease if Tenant is not in default hereunder. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute, deliver and record any such documents in the name and on behalf of Tenant if Tenant fails to do same pursuant to the foregoing. Upon request by Tenant, Landlord shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain execution by Landlord’s Lenders of a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement. Moreover, if, in connection with the obtainment of financing for the Project or any portion thereof, a prospective lender requests reasonable modifications hereto as a condition to the furnishing of such financing, Tenant shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent thereto, provided such modifications do not increase the obligations of Tenant hereunder or adversely affect Tenant’s rights hereunder.

ARTICLE 16
SURRENDER OF PREMISES; REMOVAL OF PROPERTY

16.1 Tenant’s Removal of Property. Upon the expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall quit and surrender possession of the Premises, and all repairs, changes, alterations, additions and improvements thereto, to Landlord in as good order, condition and repair as the same are now or hereafter may be improved by Landlord or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are Landlord’s obligation excepted, and in a reasonable state of cleanliness. In such event, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove from the Premises all debris, rubbish, furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, free-standing cabinet work, moveable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises and all similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, including, but not limited to, any and all telecommunications or other cabling equipment, but excluding the two 8” pipes running from the Premises to the Building roof. Unless otherwise requested to do so by Landlord, however, Tenant shall not remove any additions or improvements to the Premises, such as carpet, interior partition walls and doors, “built-ins”, shelves, built-in fixtures or other similar items, it being understood and agreed that such items are and shall remain the property of Landlord. Tenant shall also repair, at its expense, all damage to the Premises resulting from such removal; provided, however, that Landlord also may elect, in its sole discretion, and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to repair all or any amount of damage anywhere in or on the Project caused by such removal of any property, reasonable wear and tear accepted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant elects to remove its HVAC Chillers located on the roof of the Building, Landlord shall obtain from Landlord’s property manager a third party estimate for the repair of the damage likely to be caused by such removal (the “Damage Repair”), and the amount of such estimate shall be deposited in immediately available funds (the “Deposit”) with Landlord or its property manager before such HVAC Chillers may be removed by Tenant. Within three Business Days following the completion of the Damage Repair to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, and delivery of an unconditional lien release to Landlord (if the Damage Repair is undertaken by non-Tenant contractors), Landlord shall return the Deposit to Tenant. Tenant shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term hereof, deliver to Landlord all keys to all doors in, upon and ATTACHMENT A 765
35 42893660v.16
about the Premises including, but not limited to, all keys to any vault or safe to remain on the Premises.

16.2 Abandoned Property. Whenever Landlord shall reenter the Premises as provided in this Lease, any property of Tenant not removed by Tenant upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease or within ten (10) business days after a termination by reason of Tenant’s default, as provided in this Lease, shall be considered abandoned, and Landlord may remove any or all such items and dispose of same in any manner or store the same in a public warehouse or elsewhere for the account and at the expense and risk of Tenant.

ARTICLE 17
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS; EXCESSIVE BURDEN; WASTE
Tenant shall not cause or permit any nuisance in or about the Premises or the Project, nor shall Tenant cause or permit any Hazardous Materials (as hereinafter defined) to be brought to the Premises or the Project or used, handled, stored, released or disposed of in, under or about the Premises, Building or any other portion of the Project except for ordinary and general office and technology supplies typically used in the ordinary course of business within office buildings and technology centers and in full compliance with all applicable Regulations. Tenant shall not conduct business or other activity in or about the Premises of such a nature as to place an unreasonable or excessive burden upon the Common Facilities. Tenant shall not commit or suffer the commission of any waste in or about the Premises or the Project. As used in this Lease, the term “Hazardous Materials” means and includes any hazardous or toxic materials, substances or wastes as now or hereafter designated under any Regulation, including, without limitation, asbestos, petroleum, petroleum hydrocarbons and petroleum based products, urea formaldehyde and other chlorofluorocarbons. Tenant indemnifies, defends, protects and holds Landlord and the other Landlord Parties harmless from all costs, damages, liens and expenses (including attorney’s fees and court costs) related to Tenant’s breach of any provision of this Article 17.

ARTICLE 18

MISCELLANEOUS

18.1 Landlord’s Inspection and Maintenance. Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents at all reasonable times to enter the Premises for the purpose of inspecting the same and/or for the purpose of protecting the interest therein of Landlord, and to take all required materials and equipment into the Premises and perform all required work therein; provided, that Landlord uses commercially reasonably efforts to avoid interfering with Tenant’s business operations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, except in the case of an emergency, Landlord must provide twenty-four (24) hours prior written notice to Tenant of its intent to enter the Premises and must permit a representative of Tenant to be present at all times if Tenant so desires; provided, however, that, if no Tenant representative is available within seventy-two (72) hours of Landlord’s prior written notice, Landlord shall nonetheless be entitled to proceed.

18.2 Exhibition of Premises. Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents to enter and pass through the Premises at all reasonable hours to:
(a) Post notices of nonresponsibility; and
ATTACHMENT A 766
36 42893660v.16
(b) Exhibit the Premises to holders of encumbrances and to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or lessees of the Building.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at all times Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to (i) interfere with Tenant’s business operations at the Premises, or (ii) upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord, enter (except in the case of an emergency) into specifically identified locations within the Premises, such as storage areas, filing cabinets, or other storage locations, which locations contain confidential information that Tenant is not permitted by applicable law to allow unauthorized persons access to, such locations to be identified in writing by Tenant in its reasonable discretion in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that Landlord shall, at all times during the Term of this Lease, have all access to the Premises as may be necessary or reasonably desirable to Landlord to permit Landlord to fulfill its obligations under this Lease. If during the last month of the Term, Tenant shall have removed substantially all of Tenant’s property and personnel from the Premises, Landlord may enter the Premises and repair, alter and redecorate the same, without abatement of Rent and without liability to Tenant, and such acts shall have no effect on this Lease.

18.3 Rights Reserved by Landlord. Landlord reserves the following rights, exercisable without liability to Tenant for (a) damage or injury to property, person or business, (b) causing an actual or constructive eviction from the Premises, or (c) disturbing Tenant’s use or possession of the Premises:
(a) To name the Project and to change the name or street address of the Project;
(b) To install and maintain all signs on the exterior and interior of the Project; (c) To have pass keys to the Premises and all doors within the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes and any rooms housing servers and any rooms containing sensitive and confidential materials (collectively, the “Confidential Areas”), as determined by Tenant in its reasonable discretion, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem necessary or proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to any portion of the Premises, and any entry to the Premises or portions thereof obtained by Landlord by any of such means or otherwise shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof; (d) To enter the Premises for the purpose of making inspections, repairs, alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises or the Project and to take all steps as may be necessary or desirable for the safety, protection, maintenance or preservation of the Premises or the Project or Landlord’s interest therein, or as may be necessary or desirable for the operation or improvement of the Project or in order to comply with applicable Regulations; and (e) To change the arrangement and/or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Building, provided that such changes do not unreasonably interfere with the suitability of the Premises for Tenant’s use.

Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, ATTACHMENT A 767
37 42893660v.16
and any other loss occasioned thereby, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 18.3, except in the case of an emergency, Landlord will not have, and will not be granted, access to any of the Confidential Areas without (i) obtaining Tenant’s prior written consent to such access and (ii) permitting a representative of Tenant to be present at all times during such access.

18.4 Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant, upon paying the Rent and performing all of its obligations under this Lease, shall peaceably and quietly enjoy the Premises, subject to the terms of this Lease and to any mortgage, lease, or other agreement to which this Lease may be subordinate.

18.5 Force Majeure. Any prevention, delay or stoppage of work to be performed by Landlord or Tenant which is due to strikes, labor disputes, inability to obtain labor, materials, equipment or reasonable substitutes therefor, acts of God, governmental restrictions or regulations or controls, judicial orders, enemy or hostile government actions, civil commotion, fire or other casualty, or other causes beyond the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform hereunder, shall excuse performance of the work by that party for a period equal to the duration of that prevention, delay or stoppage. Nothing in this Section, however, shall excuse or delay Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent or other charges under this Lease.

18.6 Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same Lease.

18.7 No Option. The submission of this Lease to Tenant shall be for examination purposes only, and does not and shall not constitute a reservation of or option for Tenant to lease, or otherwise create any interest of Tenant in the Premises or any other premises within the Project. Execution of this Lease by Tenant and its return to Landlord shall not be binding on Landlord notwithstanding any time interval, until Landlord has, in fact, signed and delivered this Lease to Tenant.

18.8 Further Assurances. The parties agree to promptly sign all documents reasonably requested to give effect to the provisions of this Lease.

18.9 Mortgagee Protection. Tenant agrees to send by (i) United States certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (ii) any nationally recognized courier service (such as FedEx), for next-day delivery, to be confirmed in writing by such courier or other method prescribed by Landlord, to any first deed of trust beneficiary of Landlord whose address has been furnished to Tenant, a copy of any notice of default served by Tenant on Landlord. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.3, if Landlord fails to cure such default within the time provided for in this Lease, such beneficiary shall have an additional thirty (30) days to cure such default; provided that if such default cannot reasonably be cured within that thirty (30) day period, then such beneficiary shall have such additional time to cure the default as is reasonably necessary under the circumstances.

18.10 Attorneys’ Fees. If either party incurs any expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees, in connection with any action instituted by either party by reason of any dispute under this Lease or any default or alleged default of the other party, the party prevailing in such action shall be entitled to recover its reasonable expenses from the other party. The term ATTACHMENT A 768
38 42893660v.16
“prevailing party” means the party obtaining substantially the relief sought, whether by compromise, settlement or judgment.

18.11 Tenant’s Certificates. Within ten (10) days after any written request which either party may make from time to time, such requested party (the “Requested Party”) shall execute and deliver to the other party (the “Requesting Party”) a certificate (the “Certificate”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “D” and hereby made a part hereof. Any failure by the Requested Party to so execute and deliver the Certificate shall, at the Requesting Party’s election, constitute a certification by the Requested Party that the statements which may be included in the Certificate (as same may have been so amended or supplemented) are true and correct, except as the Requesting Party shall otherwise indicate. Landlord and Tenant intend that the Certificate may be relied upon by either party’s Lenders, and any prospective lender, purchaser, subtenant or assignee.

18.12 Holding Over.
(a) If Tenant, with Landlord’s written consent, remains in possession of all or any portion of the Premises after the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, such holding over shall be deemed to constitute a tenancy from month to month only, upon such terms and conditions hereof as existed at the expiration or termination of the Term; provided, however, during such holding over, Basic Monthly Rent shall be the Basic Monthly Rent in effect immediately prior to such expiration or termination or such other amount mutually agreed upon between Tenant and Landlord, and any and all options and rights of first refusal or other preferential rights of Tenant shall be deemed to have lapsed and to be of no further force or effect. Landlord may terminate such tenancy from month to month by giving Tenant at least thirty (30) days written notice thereof at any time. Acceptance by Landlord of any Rent after such expiration or termination shall not be deemed to constitute Landlord’s consent to such holding over.
(b) If Tenant, without Landlord’s express, written consent, remains in possession of all or any portion of the Premises after the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Landlord under other provisions of this Lease or at law or in equity, Tenant shall be treated as a Tenant at sufferance only, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease so far as applicable, but at a Basic Monthly Rent equal to the greater of (i) one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Basic Monthly Rent applicable to the Premises immediately prior to the date of such expiration or earlier termination; or (ii) one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the prevailing market rate for buildings of similar quality and use in the same geographic area as the Premises (as reasonably determined by Landlord) for the Premises in effect on the date of such expiration or earlier termination. Acceptance by Landlord of any Rent after such expiration or termination shall not constitute a consent to a hold over hereunder or result in an extension of this Lease. Any and all options and rights of first refusal or other preferential rights of Tenant shall be deemed to have lapsed and to be of no further force or effect. Tenant shall pay an entire month’s Rent, with Basic Monthly Rent calculated in accordance with this Section 18.12. (c) If, for any reason, Tenant fails to surrender the Premises on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease (including upon the expiration of any subsequent month-tomonth tenancy consented to by Landlord pursuant to Section 18.12(a) above), then, in addition to, and by no means in lieu of, the other provisions of this Section 18.12, all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord under the provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify, protect, ATTACHMENT A 769
39 42893660v.16
defend (by counsel approved in writing by Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, court costs and any and all consequential damages awarded as a result thereof) resulting from such failure to surrender, including, without limitation, any claim made by any succeeding tenant based thereon, and Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that if Tenant holds over without Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for any net loss, liability or expense, that Landlord may suffer as a result, including lost rent (net of expenses). Landlord shall, in addition, continue to have all remedies for holdover as may be available to Landlord under other provisions of this Lease or at law or in equity. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

18.13 Notices. All notices, which Landlord or Tenant may be required or may desire to serve on the other shall be in writing and shall be served by personal delivery, by mailing the same by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or sent by a nationally recognized courier service (such as Fed Ex) for next-day delivery, to be confirmed in writing by such courier, addressed as set forth in the Basic Lease Provisions or addressed to such other address or addresses as either Landlord or Tenant may from time to time designate to the other in writing in accordance with this Article. Notices, demands and other communications given in the foregoing manner shall be deemed given when actually received or refused by the party to whom sent, unless mailed, in which event same shall be deemed given on the day of actual delivery as shown by the addressee’s registered or certified mail receipt or at the expiration of the third (3rd) business day after the date of mailing, whichever first occurs.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but by no means limiting the foregoing, until such time as Landlord may otherwise notify Tenant in writing in accordance with the terms hereof, all communications to be delivered by Tenant to Landlord shall be delivered to Landlord at both of Landlord’s addresses for notices set forth in Section 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions, and no notice shall be deemed received by Landlord until such notice has been received by Landlord at both such addresses.

18.14 Rules and Regulations. Tenant agrees to abide by and comply with the Rules and Regulations delivered to Tenant by Landlord from time to time. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any violation of such Rules and Regulations by any other tenant. In the event of any inconsistencies between this Lease and the Rules and Regulations, the language of this Lease shall prevail. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to amend and modify the Rules and Regulations. Landlord shall have no liability for its failure to enforce the Rules and Regulations against any other lessee in the Building.

18.15 Governing Laws. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

18.16 Headings and Titles. The marginal titles to the Articles of this Lease are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part hereof.

18.17 Heirs and Assigns. Subject to the limitations on assignment, subletting and transfers, this Lease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

18.18 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of every provision of this Lease.

ATTACHMENT A 770

18.19 Severability. If any condition or provision of this Lease shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent under any applicable Regulations or by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby, and each condition and provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Regulation.

18.20 Authority. Each individual executing this Lease on behalf of a party hereto represents and warrants that she or he is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of such party and that this Lease is binding upon such party in accordance with its terms.

18.21 Rentable Square Feet. All references to “rentable square feet” in this Lease refer to rentable square feet measured in accordance with ANSI/BOMA Z65.3 2009.

18.22 No Light, Air or View Easement. Any diminution or shutting off of light, air or view by any structure which may be erected on lands adjacent to the Project (whether or not by Landlord) shall not in any way affect this Lease or impose any liability on Landlord and shall not entitle Tenant to any reduction of Rent.

18.23 Entire Agreement. This Lease, along with any Exhibits affixed hereto, constitutes the entire and exclusive agreement between Landlord and Tenant relative to the Premises. This Lease may not be changed, modified, abandoned or discharged, in whole or in part, nor any of its provisions waived, except by a written instrument which is executed by both parties hereto.

18.24 Recording. Neither this Lease, nor any memorandum hereof shall be recorded without Landlord’s prior written consent.

18.25 Joint and Several Liability. If Tenant is comprised of more than one person or entity, then the obligations hereunder imposed upon such persons and entities shall be joint and several.

18.26 Confidentiality. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Lease are confidential and constitute proprietary information of Landlord. Disclosure of the terms hereof may adversely affect the ability of Landlord to negotiate other leases and impair Landlord’s relationship with other tenants. Accordingly, Tenant agrees, except as may be required by any laws of the State of California applicable to Tenant or leases made and to be performed in the State of California, that it, and its partners, members, officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, shall not intentionally and voluntarily disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to any newspaper or other publication or any other tenant or apparent prospective tenant of the Project or any real estate agent (other than the broker(s) identified in the Basic Lease Provisions), either directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Landlord; provided, however, Tenant may disclose the terms to prospective subtenants or assignees under this Lease, to any other public entity or public official to which Tenant is required to disclose the terms of this Lease as a result of Tenant being a public entity, and to its attorneys and accountants, in each case, on a “need-to-know” basis, provided all of the same are instructed as to the confidentiality hereof.

18.27 No Representations or Warranties. Neither Landlord nor Landlord’s agents or attorneys have made any representations or warranties with respect to the Premises, the Building, the Real Property, the Common Facilities or this Lease, except as expressly set forth herein, and no rights, easements or licenses are or shall be acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise.

ATTACHMENT A 771
41 42893660v.16

18.28 Exculpation. In no event shall any Landlord Party be liable for the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease. Tenant shall look solely to Landlord to enforce Landlord’s obligations hereunder and shall not seek any damages against any Landlord Party.

The liability of Landlord for Landlord’s obligations under this Lease shall not exceed and shall be limited to Landlord’s interest in the Building, and Tenant shall not look to any other property or assets of Landlord or any other Landlord Party in seeking either to enforce Landlord’s obligations under this Lease or to satisfy a judgment for Landlord’s failure to perform such obligations.

18.29 Consents. Tenant hereby waives any monetary claim against Landlord which it may have based upon any assertion that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed any requested consent, and Tenant agrees that its sole remedy shall be an action or proceeding to enforce any such provision or for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment. In the event of such a determination, the requested consent shall be deemed to have been granted; however, Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for its refusal to give such consent. The sole remedy for Landlord’s unreasonably withholding or delaying of consent shall be as provided in this Section.

18.30 Waiver. The failure of Landlord to exercise its rights in connection with any breach or violation of any term, covenant, or condition herein contained, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptances of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. Waiver by Landlord of any term, covenant or condition contained in this Lease may only be made by a written document signed by Landlord.

18.31 No Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate any and all existing subleases or subtenancies, or operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subleases or subtenancies. No act or omission of Landlord or any representative thereof shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of any surrender, and no surrender shall be deemed to have occurred, unless in a writing executed by Landlord and approved in writing by any of Landlord’s Lenders, should such approval be required under the terms of any loan agreement, mortgage or deed of trust, as the case may be.

18.32 Form of Payment; Business Days. Rent and all other sums payable under this Lease must be paid in lawful money of the United States of America. As used in this Lease, “business day” means any day excluding (a) Saturday, (b) Sunday, (c) any day which is a legal holiday under the laws of the State of California, and (d) any day on which banking institutions located in such state are generally not open for the conduct of regular business.

18.33 Cumulative Remedies. None of Landlord’s rights or remedies hereunder shall be deemed to be exclusive, but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other rights and remedies hereunder and at law and in equity.

18.34 Mutual Covenants. Each provision of this Lease performable by Tenant shall be deemed to be both a covenant of Tenant and a condition to Landlord’s performance hereunder.

ATTACHMENT A 772
42 42893660v.16

18.35 Relationship. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed to create the relationship of principal and agent, partnership, joint venture or any other relationship between the parties hereto, other than the relationship of landlord and tenant.

18.36 Modification. This Lease may not be modified except by a written document executed by the parties hereto.

18.37 Representations and Warranties. Neither Landlord nor any broker, agent or representative thereof has made any warranty or representation with respect to the tenant mix of the Building, the identity of prospective or other tenants of the Building, or otherwise except as explicitly set forth herein.

18.38 Construction. The language in all parts of this Lease shall be in all cases construed simply according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against Landlord or Tenant.

The principal of construction against draftsmen shall have no application in the interpretation of this Lease. Any reference to any Section herein shall be deemed to include all subsections thereof unless otherwise specified or reasonably required from the context. Any reference to “days” or “months” herein shall refer to calendar days or months, respectively, unless specifically provided to the contrary. The terms “herein”, “hereunder” and “hereof” as used in this Lease mean “in this Lease”, “under this Lease” and “of this Lease”, respectively, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Lease.

18.39 Exhibits. Any and all exhibits and addenda referred to in this Lease are incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth herein.

18.40 Other Agreements. Tenant hereby warrants and represents that neither its execution of nor performance under this Lease shall cause Tenant to be in violation of any agreement, instrument, contract or Regulation by which Tenant is bound. Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord against any loss, cost, damage or liability including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of Tenant’s breach of this warranty and representation.

18.41 Discrimination. Tenant covenants by and for itself, its successors and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, and this Lease is made and accepted upon and subject to the following conditions: That there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of any person or group of persons, on account of sex, marital status, age, race, color, religion, creed, national origin or ancestry, in the leasing, subleasing, renting, transferring, use, occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of the Premises herein leased, nor shall Tenant itself, or any person claiming under or through it, establish or permit such practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, sublessees, subtenants or vendees in the Premises.
