in such Property identified in the applicable Lease Supplement.
Section 2.2. Acceptance Procedure. The Lessee hereby agrees that
the execution and delivery by it of a Lease Supplement on or as of each
Acquisition Date shall, without further act, constitute the irrevocable
acceptance by the Lessee of the Property set forth in such Lease Supplement for

set forth therein and herein, and that such Property shall be deemed to be
included in the leasehold estate of this Master Lease and shall be subject to

Basic Rent to the Lessor on each Scheduled Payment Date, on the date required
under Section 20.2(h) in connection with the Lessee's exercise of the
Remarketing Option and, with respect to any Property, on any date on which this
Master Lease shall terminate with respect to such Property.
(b) Neither the Lessee's inability or failure to take possession
of all or any portion of any Property when delivered by the Lessor, nor the
inability or failure of the Lessor to deliver all or any portion of any Property
to the Lessee on the Acquisition Date therefor, whether or not attributable to
any act or omission of the Lessee or any act or omission of the Lessor, or for
any other reason whatsoever, shall delay or otherwise affect the Lessee's
obligation to pay Rent for such Property in accordance with the terms of this
Master Lease.
Section 3.2. Payment of Rent. Rent shall be paid absolutely net to
each Person entitled thereto, so that this Master Lease shall yield to such
Person the full amount thereof, without setoff, deduction or reduction.
Section 3.3. Supplemental Rent. The Lessee shall pay to the Lessor
or any other Person entitled thereto any and all Supplemental Rent promptly as
the same shall become due and payable, and if the Lessee fails to pay any

shall be overdue and on any payment of Supplemental Rent not paid when due for
the period from the due date until the same shall be paid. The expiration or
other termination of the Lessee's obligations to pay Basic Rent hereunder shall
not limit or modify the obligations of the Lessee with respect to Supplemental
Rent. Unless expressly provided otherwise in this Master Lease or in the
Participation Agreement, in the event of any failure on the part of the Lessee
to pay and discharge any Supplemental Rent as and when due, the Lessee shall

Supplemental Rent.

the Lessee to the Lessor under this Master Lease or any other Operative Document
shall be made by the Lessee to the Administrative Agent as assignee of the
Lessor under the Assignment of Lease and Rent (or, if all Loans and all other

Section 4.1. Quiet Enjoyment. Subject to the terms of each of the
Operative Documents, the Lessee shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy
each Property for the Lease Term, free of any claim or other action by the
Lessor or anyone claiming by, through or under the Lessor with respect to any
matters arising from and after the Acquisition Date. Such right of quiet

any assignee thereof otherwise to initiate legal action to enforce, the
obligations of the Lessee under this Master Lease.
Section 4.2. Right to Inspect. During the Lease Term, the Lessee
shall upon reasonable notice (except that no notice shall be required if a Lease

Administrative Agent or any Participant, make available to such Person the books
and records of the Lessee relating to such Property; provided that all such

lease. Any present or future law to the contrary notwithstanding, this Master
Lease shall not terminate, nor shall the Lessee be entitled to any abatement,
suspension, deferment, reduction, setoff, counterclaim or defense with respect
to the Rent, nor shall the obligations of the Lessee hereunder be affected
(except as expressly herein permitted and by performance of the obligations in
connection therewith) by reason of: (i) any defect in the condition,
merchantability, design, construction, quality or fitness for use of any
Property or any part thereof, or the failure of any Property to comply with all
Requirements of Law, including any inability to occupy or use any Property by
reason of such non-compliance; (ii) any damage to, removal, abandonment,
salvage, loss, contamination of or Release from, scrapping or destruction of or
any requisition or taking of any Property or any part thereof; (iii) any
restriction, prevention or curtailment of or interference with the construction

-4-

Property; (v) any change, waiver, extension, indulgence or other action or
omission or breach in respect of any obligation or liability of or by the
Administrative Agent or any Participant; (vi) any bankruptcy, insolvency,

proceedings relating to the Lessee, the Administrative Agent, any Participant or
any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Master Lease by any
trustee or receiver of the Lessee, the Administrative Agent, any Participant or
any other Person, or by any court in any such proceeding; (vii) any claim that

or (xii) any other cause or circumstances whether similar or dissimilar to the

the foregoing. The Lessee's agreement in this Section 5.1 shall not affect any
claim, action or right the Lessee may have against the Lessor or any other
Participant. The parties intend that the obligations of the Lessee hereunder
shall be covenants and agreements that are separate and independent from any
obligations of the Lessor hereunder or under any other Operative Documents, and
the obligations of the Lessee shall continue unaffected unless such obligations
shall have been modified or terminated in accordance with an express provision
of this Master Lease.
Section 5.2. No Termination or Abatement. The Lessee shall remain
obligated under this Master Lease in accordance with its terms and shall not
take any action to terminate, rescind or avoid this Master Lease (except as
provided herein), notwithstanding any action for bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other proceeding affecting any
Participant, or any action with respect to this Master Lease which may be taken
by any trustee, receiver or liquidator of any Participant or by any court with
respect to any Participant. The Lessee hereby waives, to the extent permitted by
law, all right (i) to terminate or surrender this Master Lease (except as
provided herein) or (ii) to avail itself of any abatement, suspension,
deferment, reduction, setoff, counterclaim or defense with respect to any Rent.
The Lessee shall remain obligated under this Master Lease in accordance with its
terms and the Lessee hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law, any and all
rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise to modify or to avoid
strict compliance with its obligations under this Master Lease. Notwithstanding

conditions contained in this Master Lease and the Lease Supplements.

excess of 20% of the Property Cost of such Property.
All Modifications shall remain part of the realty and shall be subject
to this Master Lease and the applicable Lease Supplement(s) and title thereto
shall immediately vest in the Lessor. So long as no Lease Event of Default has

fixtures, machinery, equipment, inventory or other property belonging to the
Lessee or third parties and may remove the same at any time during the Lease
Term, subject, however, to the terms of Section 9.1(a); provided, however, that
any trade fixtures placed on a Property do not impair the marketability, value,
utility or useful life of such Property; provided, further, however, that the
Lessee shall keep and maintain at each Property and shall not remove from any
Property any Equipment (except for removal in connection with the maintenance,
repair or replacement of such Equipment).
Section 10.2. Notice to the Lessor and Administrative Agent. If the
Lessee reasonably expects the cost of any Modification to exceed 20% of the
Property Cost of the relevant Property, the Lessee shall deliver to the Lessor
and the Administrative Agent a brief written narrative of the work to be
performed in connection with such Modification prior to making such Modification
and an Officer's Certificate stating that such work when completed will not
impair the marketability, value, utility or useful life of the Property.

INSURANCE
Section 13.1. Required Insurance. (a) Liability Insurance. During
the Lease Term for each Property, the Lessee shall procure and carry commercial
general liability insurance for claims for injuries or death sustained by
persons or damage to property while on such Property and such other public
liability coverages as are ordinarily procured by the Lessee or its Affiliates
who own or operate similar properties, but in any case shall provide liability
coverage of at least $50,000,000 per occurrence. Such insurance shall be on
terms and in amounts that are no less favorable than insurance maintained by the
Lessee or such Affiliates with respect to similar properties that they own or
lease. The policy shall also specifically provide that the policy shall be
considered primary insurance which shall apply to any loss or claim before any
contribution by any insurance which the Lessor, the Administrative Agent and any
Lender may have in force.
(b) Worker's Compensation Laws. The Lessee shall, in connection
with any Modifications and the operation of the Properties, comply with the
applicable workers' compensation laws.
(c) Hazard and Other Insurance. During the Lease Term for each
Property, the Lessee shall keep, or cause to be kept, each Property insured
against loss or damage by fire, windstorm, environmental risks and other risks
(and during any Modification, builders' all-risk insurance) on terms and in
amounts that are no less favorable than insurance covering other similar
properties owned or leased by the Lessee or its Affiliates; provided that the
Lessee shall also obtain (i) with respect to any Property located at a site that
shall have been assigned a seismic zone factor of 4 under the Uniform Building
Code published from time to time by the International Conference of Building
Officials, coverage for earthquake (provided such coverage is maintained by
owners of similar properties and in accordance with normal industry practice)
and (ii) with respect to any Property located within an area identified as a
special flood hazard area by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, coverage
for flood. The Lessor acknowledges that the Lessee does not currently maintain
earthquake insurance. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 13.1(c) and
the terms of Section 14.2, all insurance proceeds in respect of any loss or
occurrence for which the proceeds related thereto are (i) less than or equal to
$3,000,000, in the absence of the occurrence and continuance of a Lease Event of
Default, shall be adjusted by and paid to the Lessee for application toward the
reconstruction, repair or refurbishment of such Property, and (ii) greater than
$3,000,000 shall be adjusted by the Lessee and the Lessor working together to
jointly resolve such insurance claim (unless a Lease Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, in which case such proceeds shall be adjusted solely
by the Lessor) and held by the Lessor for application in accordance with Article
XIV.
(d) Deductibles. During the Lease Term, the insurance required to
be obtained by the Lessee under this Section 13.1 may be subject to such
deductible amounts and self-insured retentions as is consistent with the
Lessee's or its Affiliates' practice for other properties similar to the
Properties owned or leased by the Lessee or its Affiliates; provided that such
deductible amounts and self-insured retentions shall not exceed $1,000,000 with
respect to the insurance required by Section 13.1(a) and $1,000,000 with respect
to the insurance required by Section
-12-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
13.1(c). Such insurance may be carried under blanket policies maintained by or
on behalf of the Lessee so long as such policies otherwise comply with the
provisions of this Section 13.1.
Section 13.2. Insurance Coverage. During the Lease Term for each
Property, the Lessee shall cause the insurance required to be maintained by the
Lessee under Section 13.1(a) or 13.1(c), to comply with the provisions of this
Section 13.2. All insurance required under Section 13.1 shall be at the sole
cost and expense of the Lessee.
(a) On each Acquisition Date, the Lessee shall furnish the Lessor
and the Administrative Agent with certificates showing the insurance required
under Section 13.1 to be in effect. Such certificates shall include a provision
for no less than thirty (30) days' advance written notice by the insurer to the
Lessor and the Administrative Agent in the event of cancellation or reduction of
such insurance.
(b) The Lessee agrees that the insurance policy or policies
required by Section 13.1(a) shall (i) name the Administrative Agent, the Lessor
and each Lender as additional insureds (including any insurance policy
maintained in connection with the construction of any Modifications) and (ii)
include an appropriate clause pursuant to which such policy shall provide that
it will not be invalidated should the Lessee waive, in writing, prior to a loss,
any or all rights of recovery against any party for losses covered by such
policy, and that the insurance in favor of the Lessor, the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders and their respective rights under and interests in such policies
shall not be invalidated or reduced by any act or omission (including breach of
warranty) or negligence of the Lessee or any other Person having any interest in
the Property. The Lessee hereby waives any and all such rights against the
Lessor, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to the extent of payments made
under such policies. All insurance policies required by Section 13.1(c) shall
name the Administrative Agent as loss payee pursuant to a standard mortgagee
loss payee endorsement.
(c) All such insurance shall be written by reputable insurance
companies that are financially sound and solvent and otherwise reasonably
appropriate considering the amount and type of insurance being provided by such
companies and which shall have a rating by A.M. Best's Key Rating Guide of not
less than "A" and a "Financial Performance Rating" of at least "VIII" and shall
be otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Lenders and the Lessor.
(d) The Lessee shall pay at its sole cost and expense as they
become due all premiums for the insurance required by this Article XIII, and
shall renew or replace each policy prior to the expiration date thereof. During
the Lease Term, the Lessee shall, at the time each of the Lessee's insurance
policies is renewed (but in no event less frequently than once each year),
deliver to the Lessor and the Administrative Agent certificates of insurance
evidencing that all insurance required by this Article XIII is being maintained
by the Lessee and is in effect. Such certificates shall include a provision for
no less than thirty (30) days' advance written notice by the insurer to the
Administrative Agent and the Lessor in the event of cancellation or any material
reduction of such insurance.

have occurred and be continuing, (B) such Casualty or Condemnation is an Event
of Loss or (C) the amount of such proceeds, award or compensation equals or
exceeds $2,000,000, then such award, compensation or insurance proceeds shall be

Casualty with respect to any Property for which the reasonable anticipated cost
of restoration equals or exceeds 5% of the Property Cost of such Property or of
an actual, pending or threatened Condemnation of any material interest in the
Property, the Lessor or the Lessee, as the case may be, shall give notice
thereof to the other and to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent promptly
after the receipt of such notice.
(d) Repair. If this Master Lease shall continue in full force and
effect with respect to any Property following a Casualty or Condemnation

is not sufficient to restore such Property in accordance with this clause (d),
the Lessee shall pay the shortfall), promptly and diligently repair any damage
to such Property caused by such Casualty or Condemnation in conformity with the
requirements of Article XIII and Sections 8.3, 9.1 and 10.1 using the Plans and

so as to restore such Property to at least the same or similar condition,
operation, function and value as existed immediately prior to such Casualty or
Condemnation with such Modifications as the Lessee may elect in accordance with
Section 10.1. In such event, title to such Property shall remain with the Lessor
subject to the terms of this Master Lease. Upon completion of such restoration,
the Lessee shall furnish to the Lessor and the Administrative Agent a
Responsible Officer's Certificate confirming that such restoration has been
completed pursuant to this Master Lease.

proceedings under Title IV of ERISA to terminate, to impose liability
(other than for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA) in respect of, or
to cause a trustee to be appointed to administer any such Plan, or a
condition shall exist which would entitle the PBGC to obtain a decree
adjudicating that any such Plan must be terminated; or
(l) any Operative Document to which the Lessee is a party
or any Lien granted by the Lessee under any Operative Document shall,
in whole or in part, terminate, cease to be effective against, or
(other than as expressly provided therein) cease to be the legal,
valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Lessee other than as
permitted under, or pursuant to the terms of, or in connection with a
transaction permitted by, any Operative Document; or
(m) the Lessee shall directly or indirectly contest the
effectiveness, validity, binding nature or enforceability of any

Section 16.2. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Lease Event of
Default and at any time thereafter, the Lessor may, so long as such Lease Event
of Default is continuing, do one or more of the following (and in such order) as
the Lessor in its sole discretion shall determine, without limiting any other
right or remedy the Lessor may have on account of such Lease Event of Default
(including, without limitation, the obligation of the Lessee to purchase all of
the Properties as set forth in Section 18.3):
(a) The Lessor may (i) declare the entire outstanding
Lease Balance to be due and payable together with accrued unpaid Rent
and any other amounts payable under the Operative Documents, (ii)
declare the Commitments to be terminated, whereupon the same shall be
of no further force or effect; provided, however, that in the event of
an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the
Lessee or any of its Subsidiaries under the Bankruptcy Code, (A) the
obligation of each Participant to make Advances shall automatically be
terminated and (B) the Advances, all interest and Yield thereon and all
other amounts payable under the Operative Documents shall automatically
become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or
any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Lessee or (iii) make demand upon the Lessee;
(b) The Lessor may, by notice to the Lessee, rescind or
terminate this Master Lease as of the date specified in such notice;
provided, however, (i) no reletting, reentry or taking of possession of
any Property (or any portion thereof) by the Lessor (or its agents)
will be construed as an election on the Lessor's part to terminate this
Master Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to the
Lessee, (ii) notwithstanding
-20-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
any reletting, reentry or taking of possession, the Lessor may at any
time thereafter elect to terminate this Master Lease for a continuing
Lease Event of Default and (iii) no act or thing done by the Lessor or
any of its agents, representatives or employees and no agreement
accepting a surrender of any Property shall be valid unless the same be
made in writing and executed by the Lessor;
(c) The Lessor may (i) demand that the Lessee, and the
Lessee shall upon the written demand of the Lessor, return all of the
Properties promptly to the Lessor in the manner and condition required
by, and otherwise in accordance with all of the provisions of, Articles
VII and IX and Section 8.3 hereof as if the Properties were being
returned at the end of the Lease Term, and the Lessor shall not be
liable for the reimbursement of the Lessee for any costs and expenses
incurred by the Lessee in connection therewith, and (ii) without
prejudice to any other remedy which the Lessor may have for possession
of the Properties, and to the extent and in the manner permitted by
Applicable Law, enter upon the Property and take immediate possession
of (to the exclusion of the Lessee) the Properties or any part thereof
and expel or remove the Lessee and any other Person who may be
occupying any Property, by summary proceedings or otherwise, all
without liability to the Lessor for or by reason of such entry or
taking of possession, whether for the restoration of damage to property
caused by such taking or otherwise and, in addition to the other
damages of the Lessor, the Lessee shall be responsible for all costs
and expenses incurred by the Lessor, the Administrative Agent and/or
the Lenders in connection with any reletting, including, without
limitation, reasonable brokers' fees and all costs of any alterations
or repairs required to be made by the Lessor so that the Properties
achieve the standard of condition required by this Master Lease;
(d) As more fully set forth in Section 16.4 hereof and in
each Lease Supplement (and consistent with the intent of the parties as
detailed in Article XXV hereof), the Lessor may exercise all remedies
available to a mortgagee, secured party, beneficiary or trustee under
law or equity, including, to the extent permitted by law, the right to
sell all or any part of the Properties at public or private sale, as
the Lessor may determine;
(e) The Lessor may, at its option, elect not to terminate
this Master Lease and continue to collect all Basic Rent, Supplemental
Rent, and all other amounts due to the Lessor (together with all costs
of collection) and enforce the Lessee's obligations under this Master
Lease as and when the same become due, or are to be performed, and at
the option of the Lessor, upon any abandonment of any Property by the
Lessee or re-entry of same by the Lessor, the Lessor may, in its sole
and absolute discretion, elect not to terminate this Master Lease and
may make the necessary repairs in order to relet any Property, and
relet such Property or any part thereof for such term or terms (which
may be for a term extending beyond the Lease Term of this Master Lease)
and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions
as the Lessor in its reasonable discretion may deem advisable; and upon
each such reletting, all rentals actually received by the Lessor from
such reletting shall be applied to the Lessee's obligations hereunder
and under the other Operative Documents in the manner provided in
Section 7.6(a) or (c), as applicable, of the Participation Agreement.
If such rentals received from such reletting
-21-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
during any period are less than the Rent to be paid during that period
by the Lessee hereunder, the Lessee shall pay any deficiency, as
calculated by the Lessor, to the Administrative Agent on the next
Scheduled Payment Date;
(f) Unless all of the Properties have been sold in their
entirety, the Lessor may, whether or not the Lessor shall have
exercised or shall thereafter at any time exercise any of its rights
under clause (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 16.2 with respect to any
or all of the Properties or any portions thereof, demand, by written
notice to the Lessee specifying a date not earlier than twenty (20)
days after the date of such notice, that the Lessee purchase, on the
date specified in such notice, all of the unsold Properties in
accordance with the provisions of Article XXI and Section 18.2;
(g) The Lessor may exercise any other right or remedy
that may be available to it under Applicable Law, or proceed by
appropriate court action (legal or equitable) to enforce the terms
hereof or to recover damages for the breach hereof. Separate suits may
be brought to collect any such damages for any period(s), and such
suits shall not in any manner prejudice the Lessor's rights to collect
any such damages for any subsequent period(s), or the Lessor may defer
any such suit until after the expiration of the Lease Term, in which
event such suit shall be deemed not to have accrued until the
expiration of the Lease Term;
(h) The Lessor may retain and apply against the Lease
Balance all sums which the Lessor would, absent such Lease Event of
Default, be required to pay to, or turn over to, the Lessee pursuant to
the terms of this Master Lease; or
(i) The Lessor, to the extent permitted by Applicable
Law, as a matter of right and without notice to the Lessee, shall have
the right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a
receiver or receivers of any part of each Property, and the Lessee
hereby irrevocably consents to any such appointment. Any such receivers
shall have all of the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or
similar cases and all of the powers and duties of the Lessor in case of
entry, and shall continue as such and exercise such powers until the
date of confirmation of the sale of the applicable Property unless such
receivership is sooner terminated.
The Lessor shall be entitled to enforce payment of the indebtedness and
performance of the obligations secured hereby and to exercise all rights and
powers under this instrument or under any of the other Operative Documents or
other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding some or
all of the obligations secured hereby may now or hereafter be otherwise secured,
whether by mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment
or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this instrument nor its enforcement
shall prejudice or in any manner affect the Lessor's right to realize upon or
enforce any other security now or hereafter held by the Lessor, it being agreed
that the Lessor shall be entitled to enforce this instrument and any other
security now or hereafter held by the Lessor in such order and manner as the
Lessor may determine in its absolute discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon
or reserved to the Lessor is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein
or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other
-22-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Operative Documents to the
Lessor or to which it may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently
or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by
the Lessor. In no event shall the Lessor, in the exercise of the remedies
provided in this instrument (including, without limitation, in connection with
the assignment of rents to the Lessor, or the appointment of a receiver and the
entry of such receiver onto all or any part of the Properties), be deemed a
"mortgagee in possession," and the Lessor shall not in any way be made liable
for any act, either of commission or omission, in connection with the exercise
of such remedies.
If requested by the Lessor in connection with the exercise of its
remedies pursuant to this Section 16.2, the Lessee hereby agrees to enter into
an operating agreement with respect to the Properties in connection therewith to
serve as the operator of the Properties on market terms established in good
faith and reasonably acceptable to the Lessor.
Section 16.3. Waiver of Certain Rights. (a) To the maximum extent
permitted by law, the Lessee hereby waives the benefit of any appraisement,
valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereafter
in force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale of any Property
or any interest therein and (b) if this Master Lease shall be terminated
pursuant to Section 16.2, the Lessee waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, (i) any notice of re-entry or the institution of legal proceedings to
obtain re-entry or possession; (ii) any right of redemption, re-entry or
repossession; (iii) the benefit of any laws now or hereafter in force exempting
property from liability for rent or for debt or limiting the Lessor with respect
to the election of remedies; and (iv) any other rights which might otherwise
limit or modify any of the Lessor's rights or remedies under this Article XVI.
Section 16.4. Deed of Trust Remedies. Without limiting any other
remedies set forth in this Master Lease, and also, without limiting the
generality of Article XXV hereof, the Lessor may proceed by a suit or suits in
equity or at law, whether for a foreclosure hereunder or under the Lease
Supplements, or (to the extent permitted by law) for the sale of each Property,
pursuant to a power of sale, or against the Lessee on a recourse basis for the
Lease Balance, or for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement
contained herein or in aid of the execution of any power granted herein, or for
the appointment of a receiver pending any foreclosure hereunder (or under the
Lease Supplements) or the sale of any Property, or for the enforcement of any
other appropriate legal or equitable remedy. The Lessor shall have all rights
available to a beneficiary under a deed of trust or a secured party under the
laws of the state where the relevant Property is located, including, without
limitation, all rights granted under the specific statutes referenced in each
Lease Supplement, if any (each such statute, as amended, is hereinafter referred
to as a "Mortgage Foreclosure Act"). In the event that any provisions of this
Master Lease shall be inconsistent with any Mortgage Foreclosure Act, the
provisions of such Mortgage Foreclosure Act shall take precedence over such
provision of this Master Lease, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
any other provision of this Master Lease that can be construed in a manner
consistent with such Mortgage Foreclosure Act. If any provision of this Master
Lease shall grant the Lessor any rights or remedies upon default of the Lessee
which are more limited than the rights that would otherwise be vested in the
Lessor under such Mortgage Foreclosure Act in the absence of such provision, the
Lessor shall be vested with the rights
-23-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
granted in such Mortgage Foreclosure Act to the full extent permitted by law.
The Lessee agrees that the agreements of the Lessee herein contained shall be
specifically enforceable by injunction or any other appropriate equitable remedy
and that for the purpose of any suit brought under this subparagraph, the Lessee
hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of laches and
any applicable statute of limitations. In the event of foreclosure, the Lessee
authorizes and empowers the Lessor to effect insurance upon the Properties in
amounts aforesaid for a period covering the time of redemption from foreclosure
sale provided by law, and if necessary therefor, to cancel any or all existing
insurance policies required to be maintained under this Master Lease.
Section 16.5. Excess Proceeds; Return of Properties. If, pursuant
to the exercise by the Lessor of its remedies pursuant to Section 16.2 or 16.4,
the Lessor shall have received an amount equal to the Lease Balance, then the
Lessor shall promptly remit to the Lessee any excess amounts received by the
Lessor and, at the sole cost and expense of the Lessee, transfer to the Lessee
(or its designee) all of the Lessor's remaining right, title and interest (if
any) in the Properties in accordance with Section 21.1.
ARTICLE XVII
LESSOR'S RIGHT TO CURE
Section 17.1. The Lessor's Right to Cure the Lessee's Lease
Defaults. The Lessor, without waiving or releasing any obligation or Lease Event
of Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) remedy any Lease Event of
Default for the account and at the sole cost and expense of the Lessee,
including the failure by the Lessee to maintain the insurance required by
Article XIII, and may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and
notwithstanding any right of quiet enjoyment in favor of the Lessee, enter upon
any Property for such purpose and take all such action thereon as may be
necessary or appropriate therefor. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of
the Lessee. All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses so incurred
(including fees and expenses of counsel), together with interest thereon at the
Overdue Rate from the date on which such sums or expenses are paid by the
Lessor, shall be paid by the Lessee to the Lessor as Supplemental Rent.
ARTICLE XVIII
PURCHASE PROVISIONS
Section 18.1. Purchase of Properties. Subject to the conditions
contained herein, and without limitation of the Lessee's purchase obligation
pursuant to Section 18.2 or 18.3, the Lessee shall have the irrevocable option
on any Scheduled Payment Date during the Lease Term to purchase all, but not
less than all (except as set forth in Section 15.14 of the Participation
Agreement), of the Properties subject to this Master Lease (the "Purchase
Option") at a price equal to the aggregate Lease Balance (or, in the case of the
Partial Purchase Option under Section 15.14 of the Participation Agreement, the
Property Balance with respect to any such Property) on the date of such purchase
(as the case may be, the "Purchase Option Price"). The
-24-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
Lessee's exercise of its option pursuant to this Section 18.1 shall be subject
to the following conditions:
(i) the Lessee shall have delivered a Purchase Notice to
the Lessor and the Administrative Agent not less than thirty (30) days
prior to such purchase, specifying the date of such purchase (and, if
the purchase is for less than all of the Properties, specify the
Property subject to such purchase); and
(ii) the Lessee shall not have delivered (or, if
delivered, shall not have failed to rescind) a written notice of the
Lessee's exercise of the Remarketing Option pursuant to Section
20.1(a).
If the Lessee exercises its option pursuant to this Section 18.1 then,
upon the Administrative Agent's receipt of all amounts due in connection
therewith, the Lessor shall transfer to the Lessee or its designees all of the
Lessor's right, title and interest in and to the Properties in accordance with
the procedures set forth in Section 21.1(a), such transfer to be effective as of
the date specified in the Purchase Notice. The Lessee may designate, in a notice
given to the Lessor and the Administrative Agent not less than ten (10) Business
Days prior to the closing of such purchase (time being of the essence), the
transferee or transferees to whom the conveyance shall be made (if other than to
the Lessee), in which case such conveyance shall (subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein) be made to such designee; provided, however, that
such designation of a transferee or transferees shall not cause the Lessee to be
released, fully or partially, from any of its obligations under this Master
Lease, including, without limitation, the obligation to pay to the Lessor the
Lease Balance on the date specified in the Purchase Notice.
Section 18.2. Expiration Date Purchase Obligation. Unless (a) the
Lessee shall have properly exercised its option pursuant to Section 18.1 and
purchased all of the Properties pursuant thereto, or (b) the Lessee shall have
properly exercised the Remarketing Option and shall have fulfilled all of the
requirements of Article XX, then, subject to the terms, conditions and
provisions set forth in this Article, and in accordance with the terms of
Section 21.1(a), the Lessee (or its designee) shall purchase from the Lessor,
and the Lessor shall convey to the Lessee (or its designee), on the Expiration
Date all of the interest of the Lessor in all of the Properties for an amount
equal to the Lease Balance. The Lessee may designate, in a notice given to the
Lessor and the Administrative Agent not less than ten (10) Business Days prior
to the closing of such purchase (time being of the essence), the transferee or
transferees to whom the conveyance shall be made (if other than to the Lessee),
in which case such conveyance shall (subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein) be made to such designee; provided, however, that such designation
of a transferee or transferees shall not cause the Lessee to be released, fully
or partially, from any of its obligations under this Master Lease, including,
without limitation, the obligation to pay the Lessor the Lease Balance on such
Expiration Date.
Section 18.3. Acceleration of Purchase Obligation. The Lessee shall
be obligated to purchase for an amount equal to the Lease Balance all of the
interest of the Lessor in all of the Properties (notwithstanding any prior
election to exercise its Purchase Option pursuant to Section 18.1) automatically
and without notice upon the occurrence of any Lease Event of
-25-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
Default described in clause (i) of Section 16.1. Any purchase under this Section
18.3 shall be in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 21.1(a).
Section 18.4. Failure to Elect Options. IN THE EVENT THE LESSEE
FAILS TO ELECT AN OPTION WITH RESPECT TO A PROPERTY UNDER SECTION 18.1 OR 20.1
AT LEAST 180 DAYS PRIOR TO THE END OF THE LEASE TERM THEN IN EFFECT, THE LESSEE
WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE ELECTED TO PURCHASE SUCH PROPERTY PURSUANT TO SECTION
18.2.
ARTICLE XIX
[INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]
ARTICLE XX
REMARKETING OPTION
Section 20.1. Option to Remarket. Subject to the fulfillment of
each of the conditions set forth in this Section 20.1 and Section 20.2
(collectively, the "Return Conditions"), the Lessee shall have the option (the
"Remarketing Option") to remarket and complete the sale of all, but not less
than all, of the Properties for the Lessor.
The Lessee's effective exercise and consummation of the Remarketing
Option shall be subject to the due and timely fulfillment of each of the
following provisions and the provisions of Section 20.2 as of the dates set
forth below:
(a) On the date not later than one hundred eighty (180) days prior
to the Expiration Date, the Lessee shall give to the Lessor and the
Administrative Agent written notice of the Lessee's exercise of the Remarketing
Option.
(b) Not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the
Expiration Date, the Lessee shall deliver to the Lessor an Environmental Audit
for each Property. Each Environmental Audit shall be prepared by an
environmental consultant selected by the Lessor in the Lessor's discretion and
shall contain conclusions satisfactory to the Lessor as to the environmental
status of such Property. If any such Environmental Audit indicates any
exceptions calling for a Phase Two environmental assessment, the Lessee shall
have also delivered prior to the Expiration Date a Phase Two environmental
assessment by such environmental consultant and a written statement by such
environmental consultant indicating that all such exceptions have been remedied
in compliance with Applicable Law.
(c) On the date of the Lessee's notice to the Lessor of the
Lessee's exercise of the Remarketing Option, no Lease Event of Default or Lease
Default shall exist, and, thereafter, no Lease Event of Default or Lease Default
shall occur.
-26-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
(d) The Lessee shall have completed all Modifications, restoration
and rebuilding of each Property pursuant to Sections 10.1 and 14.2 (as the case
may be) and shall have fulfilled all of the conditions and requirements in
connection therewith pursuant to such Sections, in each case prior to the date
on which the Lessor receives the Lessee's notice of the Lessee's intention to
exercise the Remarketing Option (time being of the essence), regardless of
whether the same shall be within the Lessee's control. The Lessee shall have
also paid the cost of all Modifications commenced prior to the Expiration Date.
The Lessee shall not have been excused pursuant to Section 12.1 from complying
with any Applicable Law that involved the extension of the ultimate imposition
of such Applicable Law beyond the Expiration Date. Any Permitted Property Liens
(other than Lessor Liens) on each Property that were contested by the Lessee
shall have been removed and the Lessor shall have received evidence satisfactory
to it that all Liens (other than Lessor Liens and uncontested Permitted Property
Liens of the type described in clauses (i), (vii), (ix) and (x) of the
definition thereof) have been removed.
Section 20.2. Procedures During Remarketing. (a) During the
Marketing Period, the Lessee shall, as nonexclusive agent for the Lessor, use
its best efforts to sell the interest of the Lessor in each Property for which
the Remarketing Option has been exercised and will attempt to obtain the highest
purchase price therefor and for not less than the Fair Market Sales Value. The
Lessee will be responsible for hiring brokers (if the Lessee so elects) and
making each Property available for inspection by prospective purchasers. The
Lessee shall promptly upon request permit inspection of each Property and any
maintenance records relating to each Property by the Lessor, any Participant and
any potential purchasers, and the Lessee shall otherwise do all things necessary
to sell and deliver possession of each Property to any purchaser. All such
marketing of the Properties shall be at the Lessee's sole expense.
(b) The Lessee shall use best efforts to procure written bids from
one or more bona fide prospective purchasers. No such purchaser shall be the
Lessee or any Affiliate thereof. Each written offer must specify the Expiration
Date as the closing date. The Lessor shall have the right, but shall be under no
duty, to solicit bids, to inquire into the efforts of the Lessee to obtain bids
or otherwise to take action in connection with any such sale.
(c) The Lessee shall submit all bids to the Lessor promptly upon
receipt, and the Lessor will have the right to submit any one or more bids. Any
sale by the Lessee shall be for the highest cash bid submitted to the Lessor.
The Lessor shall determine the highest bid prior to the end of the Marketing
Period, but in any event, the Lessor shall have no obligation to approve any bid
for any Property unless the highest bid for such Property equals or exceeds the
Property Cost for such Property plus all Permitted Sales Costs therefor. All
bids shall be on an all-cash basis.
(d) In connection with any such sale of any Property, the Lessee
will provide to the purchaser all customary "seller's" indemnities (including,
without limitation, an environmental indemnity to the extent the same are
required by the purchaser) and representations and warranties regarding title,
absence of Liens (other than Permitted Property Liens of the type described in
clause (i), (vii), (viii) or (x) of the definition thereof) and the condition of
such Property. The Lessee shall have obtained, at its cost and expense, all
required governmental and regulatory consents and approvals and shall have made
all filings as required by Applicable Law in order to carry out and complete the
transfer of such Property. As to the Lessor, any such sale
-27-
Lam Research Corporation Amended and Restated Master Lease
shall be made on an "as is, with all faults" basis without representation or
warranty by the Lessor other than the absence of Lessor Liens attributable to
the Lessor.
(e) Subject to the reimbursement obligations set forth in clause
(h) below, the Lessee shall pay directly, and not from the sale proceeds, all
prorations, credits, costs and expenses of the sale of each Property, whether
incurred by the Lessor or the Lessee, including, without limitation, the cost of
all title insurance, surveys, environmental reports, appraisals, transfer taxes,
the attorneys' fees of the Lessor, the Lessee's attorneys' fees, commissions,
escrow fees, recording fees, and all applicable documentary and other transfer
taxes.
(f) The Lessee shall pay to the Administrative Agent on or prior
to the Expiration Date (or in the case of Supplemental Rent, to the Person
entitled thereto) an amount equal to the Maximum Recourse Amount for each
Property plus all accrued and unpaid Rent (including Supplemental Rent, if any)
for each Property and all other amounts hereunder which have accrued or will
accrue prior to or as of the Expiration Date with respect to each Property, in
the type of funds specified in Section 3.4 hereof.
(g) The Lessee shall pay to the Administrative Agent on or prior
to the Expiration Date the amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to
Section 13.2 of the Participation Agreement.
(h) The sale of each Property shall be consummated on the
Expiration Date and the gross proceeds (the "Gross Remarketing Proceeds") of the
sale of each Property (less any marketing, closing or other costs, prorations or
commissions incurred by the Lessor) shall be paid directly to the Administrative
Agent. If the sale of any Property is consummated during the Marketing Period,
then, upon the Administrative Agent's timely receipt of the Gross Remarketing
Proceeds thereof and all other amounts due to the Administrative Agent, the
Lessor and the Participants under this Master Lease and the other Operative
Documents (including all amounts due pursuant to clause (f) above and Article
XIII of the Participation Agreement), the Administrative Agent shall apply such
Gross Remarketing Proceeds, first, to the payment of Permitted Sales Costs, and
second, as set forth in Section 7.4 of the Participation Agreement. If the Gross
Remarketing Proceeds from such sale (if any) of a Property exceeds the sum of
(i) the aggregate Property Balance for such Property being sold as of such date
minus the Maximum Recourse Amount, and other amounts paid to Administrative
Agent pursuant to clause (f) above for such Property plus (ii) all Permitted
Sales Costs with respect to such Property, then the excess shall be paid to the
Lessee on the Expiration Date.
(i) Except as expressly set forth herein, the Lessee shall have no
right, power or authority to bind the Lessor or any Participant in connection
with any proposed sale of any Property.
(j) During the Marketing Period, the obligation of the Lessee to
pay Rent (including the installment of Rent due on the Expiration Date) shall
continue undiminished until payment in full of the Lease Balance and all other
amounts due to the Participants under the Operative Documents to which the
Lessee is a party.

Section 20.3. Remedies for Failed Remarketing. If the Lessee
effectively elects the Remarketing Option with respect to any Property and each
of the conditions and requirements in Sections 20.1 and 20.2 shall have been
satisfied, but nevertheless the Lessee is unable to obtain bids satisfactory to
the Lessor, and the sale of a Property is not consummated prior to the end of
the Marketing Period, the Lessor shall by written notice to the Lessee choose
one or both of the following remedies (which election may be changed at any
time):
(a) Continue Remarketing Efforts. At the request of the
Lessor, the Lessee shall continue to market such Property on behalf of
the Lessor for up to an additional six (6) months and at the sole cost

(viii) all claims and causes of action arising from or otherwise related to any

indebtedness and Subject Obligations herein described, a portion of the above
described collateral being located upon the Subject Land; provided however that,
without limiting the foregoing, the Mortgaged Property shall not include any
inventory of the Lessee.
6. Remedies. Without limiting any other remedies set forth
herein, in the event that a court of competent jurisdiction rules that each of
the Master Lease and this Lease Supplement constitutes a deed of trust or other
secured financing with respect to the Subject Property as is the intent of the
parties pursuant to Article XXV of the Master Lease, then the Lessor and the
Lessee agree that upon a Lease Event of Default, the Beneficiary may declare all
sums secured hereby immediately due and payable by delivery to the Trustee of
written declaration of default
-5-
and demand for the sale and of written notice of default and of election to
cause to be sold the Subject Property which notice the Trustee shall cause to be
filed for record to the extent required by law. The Beneficiary also shall
deposit with the Trustee the Lease Supplement and all documents evidencing the
Lease Balance and expenditures secured hereby.
After the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following
the recordation of said notice of default, and notice of sale having been given
as then required by law, the Trustee, without demand on the Lessee, shall sell
the Mortgaged Property at the time and place fixed by it in said notice of sale,
either as a whole or in separate parcels, and in such order as it may determine
at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United
States, payable at time of sale. The Trustee may postpone sale of all or any
portion of the Mortgaged Property by public announcement at such time and place
of sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public
announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement. The Trustee shall
deliver to such purchaser its deed conveying the property so sold, but without
any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed of any
matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any
person, including the Lessee, the Trustee, or the Beneficiary as hereinafter
defined, may purchase at such sale. The Lessee shall have all rights available
to a Trustor under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property
is located except to the extent waived in the Operative Documents. The Lessee
agrees that the agreements of the Lessee herein contained shall be specifically
enforceable by injunction or any other appropriate equitable remedy and that for
the purpose of any suit brought under this subparagraph, the Lessee hereby
waives the defense of laches and any applicable statute of limitations.
After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of the Trustee and of this
trust, including cost of evidence of title in connection with sale, the Trustee
shall apply to proceeds of sale to payment of: all sums expended under the terms
hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at the amount allowed by law in
effect at the date hereof; all other sums then secured hereby; and the
remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto. In the
event of foreclosure, the Lessee authorizes and empowers the Trustee or the
Beneficiary to effect insurance upon the Subject Property in amounts aforesaid
for a period covering the time of redemption from foreclosure sale provided by
law, and if necessary therefor, to cancel any or all existing insurance
policies. In connection with any sale or sales hereunder, Beneficiary may elect
to treat to the fullest extent permitted by law any of the Mortgaged Property
which consists of a right in action or which is property that can be severed
from the real property covered hereby or any improvements thereon without
causing structural damage thereto as if the same were personal property, and
dispose of the same in accordance with applicable law, separate and apart from
the sale of real property. Any sale of any personal property hereunder shall be
conducted in any manner permitted by Section 9604 or any other applicable
section of the California Commercial Code. Where the Mortgaged Property consists
of real and personal property or fixtures whether or not such personal property
is located on or within the real property, the Beneficiary may elect in its
discretion to exercise its rights and remedies against any or all of the real
property, personal property, and fixtures in such order and manner as is now or
hereafter permitted by applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Beneficiary may, in its sole and absolute discretion and without
regard to the adequacy of its security, elect to proceed against any or all of
the real property, personal property and
-6-
fixtures in any manner permitted under Section 9604(a)(1) of the California
Commercial Code; and if the Beneficiary elects to proceed in the manner
permitted under Section 9604(a)(1)(B) of the California Commercial Code, the
power of sale herein granted shall be exercisable with respect to all or any of
the real property, personal property and fixtures covered hereby, as designated
by the Beneficiary, and the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to
conduct any such sale of any real property, personal property and fixtures in
accordance with the procedures applicable to real property. Where the Mortgaged
Property consists of real property and personal property, any reinstatement of
the obligation secured hereby, following default and an election by Beneficiary
to accelerate the maturity of said obligation, which is made by the Beneficiary
or any other person or entity permitted to exercise the right of reinstatement
under Section 2924c of the California Civil Code or any successor statute, shall
not, in accordance with the terms of California Commercial Code Section
9604(a)(3)(C), prohibit the Beneficiary from conducting a sale or other
disposition of any personal property or fixtures or from otherwise proceeding
against or continuing to proceed against any personal property or fixtures in
any manner permitted by the California Commercial Code; nor shall any such
reinstatement invalidate, rescind or otherwise affect any sale, disposition or
other proceedings held, conducted or instituted with respect to any personal
property or fixtures prior to such reinstatement or pending at the time of such
reinstatement. Any sums paid to the Beneficiary in effecting any reinstatement
pursuant to Section 2924c of the California Civil Code shall be applied to the
secured obligation and to the Beneficiary's and the Trustee's reasonable costs
and expenses in the manner required by Section 2924c. Should the Beneficiary
elect to sell any portion of the Mortgaged Property which is real property or
which is personal property or fixtures that Beneficiary has elected under
Section 9604(a)(1)(b) of the California Commercial Code to sell together with
real property in accordance with the laws governing a sale of real property, the
Beneficiary or the Trustee shall give such notice of default and election to
sell as may then be required by law. Any requirement of the California
Commercial Code for reasonable notification shall be met by mailing written
notice to the Lessee at its address above set forth at least ten (10) days prior
to the sale or other event for which such notice is required. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Lease Supplement, the Lessee, in accordance
with the applicable laws of the State of California and applicable provisions of
the California Rules of Procedure, or of any other general or local law or rules
or regulations of the State of California relating to deeds of trust does hereby
declare and assent to the passage of a decree to sell the Mortgaged Property by
the equity court having jurisdiction for the sale thereof and the Trustee
appointed by such decree of court shall have, subject to the terms of the decree
of court, the same authority and power to sell on the terms and conditions
herein set forth. This assent to decree shall not be exhausted in the event the
proceeding is dismissed before the indebtedness secured hereby is paid in full.
7. Non-Responsibility. Nothing contained in this Lease Supplement
shall be construed as constituting the consent or request of the Lessor, the
Administrative Agent, or any other Participant, expressed or implied, to or for
the performance by any contractor, mechanic, laborer, materialman, supplier or
vendor of any labor or services or for the furnishing of any materials for any
construction, alteration, addition, repair or demolition of or to the Subject
Property or any part thereof. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT NEITHER THE LESSOR NOR
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY LENDER IS OR SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LABOR,
SERVICES OR MATERIALS FURNISHED OR TO BE FURNISHED TO THE LESSEE, OR TO ANYONE
HOLDING THE
-7-
SUBJECT PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF THROUGH OR UNDER THE LESSEE, AND THAT NO
MECHANIC'S OR OTHER LIENS FOR ANY SUCH LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIALS SHALL ATTACH
TO OR AFFECT THE INTEREST OF THE LESSOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER
IN AND TO THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
8. Ratification. The terms and provisions of the Master Lease are
hereby ratified and confirmed and remain in full force and effect. In the event
of any conflict between the terms of the Master Lease and the terms of this
Lease Supplement, the terms of the Master Lease shall control.
9. GOVERNING LAW. THIS LEASE SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
10. Counterpart Execution. This Lease Supplement may be executed
in any number of counterparts and by each of the parties hereto in separate
counterparts, all such counterparts together constituting but one and the same
instrument.
11. Maximum Recourse Amount. The percentage applicable to the
calculation of the Maximum Recourse Amount for the Subject Property is set forth
on Schedule III to the Participation Agreement.
