Improvements for Tenant shall be constructed in accordance with the plans and specifications, and other terms and conditions, set forth in Exhibit C. Said work shall be at the expense of Landlord and/or Tenant as set forth in Exhibit C and shall in each case be performed in a prompt, diligent and workmanlike manner. Tenant covenants, as a material part of the consideration of this lease, to perform and observe each and all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth below, and this lease is made upon the condition of such performance and observance. 1. USE Tenant shall use the Premises for office, research and development, and light manufacturing, and other related uses, and shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose. 2. TERM (a) The term, subject to paragraphs 2(b) and 3, shall commence on December 1, 1987 and end on September 27, 1989 unless sooner termination as hereinafter provided.

(b) Possession of the Premises shall not be deemed tendered and the term shall not commence until the first to occur of the following: (1) Upon substantial completion of all work to be done by Landlord pursuant to Exhibit C (exclusive of telephones or other communication systems and punchlist items) and the receipt of a Certificate of Occupancy from the proper governmental agency (or the -1- receipt of a final building permit acknowledging completion and permitting occupancy of the Premises from the City of San Jose); if no such certificate or permit is required then certification by Landlord's architect or contractor that the Landlord's construction work has been completed; or (2) Upon the occupancy of the Premises by an (?) Tenant's operating personnel, provided however that Tenant, at its sole risk and expense, may, subject to Landlord's reasonable consent, and without causing commencement of the term, install prior to commencement telephone, computer terminal wiring, and equipment and items for storage to the extent permitted by applicable laws provided same does not interfere with Landlord's construction work. It is agreed that Landlord shall in no manner or event (excepting the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its employees or agents) be liable or responsible for damage to, or caused by, Tenant's equipment prior to commencement. Tenant shall not use non-union personnel for such installation prior to commencement without Landlord's prior written approval; or (3) If Landlord is prevented from or delayed from (?) completing its work under Exhibit C due to the acts or omissions of Tenant, then upon the date by which such work would have been completed (?) but for such acts or omissions by Tenant. 3. POSSESSION If Landlord for any reason cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant at the date of commencement set forth in paragraph 2(a), this lease shall not be void or voidable and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage on account thereof. Except as set forth in Exhibit C, Tenant shall not be liable for rent until Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant, as defined in paragraph (?). If the term commences on a date other than specified in 2(a) above, the parties shall immediately execute an amendment to this lease stating the actual date of commencement. Notwithstanding the above, the period of delay shall not exceed ninety (90) days from December 1, 1987 plus (?) number of days of delay caused by Tenant or by strike or other causes beyond Landlord's reasonable control. If the period of delay exceeds the allowable delay, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage on account thereof, but Tenant may, at its option, declare this lease void, and, if Tenant so elects, all amounts deposited with Landlord shall be returned to Tenant. If the delay exceeds ninety (90) days and Tenant does not elect to terminate, and if none of such ninety (90) days of delay has been caused by Tenant, then Tenant shall receive one (1) additional day free monthly rent for every day of delay not caused by Tenant, or by strike, or other causes beyond Landlord's reasonable control, beyond the 90 day period set forth above. 4. MONTHLY RENT (a) MONTHLY RENT. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent for the premises, in advance and subject to adjustment as provided in paragraph 5, the sum of nineteen thousand two hundred seventy-two and 72/100 Dollars ($19,272.72) on or before the first day of the first full calendar month of the term and on or before the first day of each and every successive calendar -2- month. Rent for any partial month shall be payable in advance and shall be prorated at the rate of 1/30th of the monthly rent per day. (b) PLACE OF PAYMENT. All rent and other amounts (?) Landlord hereunder shall be paid to Landlord, without deduction or offset (?) in lawful money of the United States of America, at the office of Landlord at 3945 Freedom Circle, Suite 1000, Santa Clara, CA 95054, or to such other person or place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. (c) FIRST MONTH'S RENT. Landlord acknowledges receipt from Tenant, on the execution hereof, of the sum nineteen thousand two hundred seventy-two and 72/100 ($19,272.72) to be applied against the rent for the first full month of the term for which rent is due. (d) SECURITY DEPOSIT. Concurrently with Tenant's execution of this lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an unconditional and irrevocable Letter of Credit in the amount of nineteen thousand two hundred seventy-two and 72/100 dollars ($19,272.72) to secure the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease to be kept and performed by Tenant. The Letter of Credit shall be available by draft at sight, subject only to receipt by the bank of a notarized statement from Birk S. McCandless or Steven E. Sund stating that the amount demanded is due and owing to Landlord by reason of the default of Tenant. The Letter of Credit shall by its terms expire not less than one year from the date issued, provided that said Letter of Credit shall be renewed by Tenant for successive periods of not less than one year each to and including not less than ten (10) days after the termination of this lease. The bank's written renewal of the Letter of Credit shall in each case be delivered to Landlord not less than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration date of the then outstanding Letter of Credit. Tenant's failure to so deliver, renew (including specifically but not limited to the delivery to Landlord of such renewal not less than ninety (90) days prior to expiration of the Letter of Credit) and maintain such Letter of Credit shall be a material breach of this lease*. If Tenant fails to comply with any provision of this lease, including without limitation the payment of rent and other amounts due Landlord after ten (10) days' written notice to Tenant, Landlord may immediately and without further notice resort to said Letter of Credit and use or apply all or any part of same to compensate Landlord for any loss and expense occasioned thereby and for the payment of any amount due Landlord under the terms of this lease, or if Tenant's default consists of the failure to renew said Letter of Credit, then to deposit the full amount thereof (less any amount required otherwise to compensate Landlord for its loss and expense) as a cash security deposit to be held by Landlord as if Tenant had deposited the same as provided below. If any portion of said Letter of Credit is used as specified above, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, restore the Letter of Credit to its original amount, except that if Tenant is reasonably and in good faith contesting in a court of law *, excepting only that Tenant's failure to so renew the Letter of Credit shall constitute a breach thereof only if it fails to so renew the Letter of Credit after not less than ten (10) days written notice thereof from Landlord. -3- Landlord's resort to the Letter of Credit, then Tenant shall not be obligated to restore the Letter of Credit while such action is pending. Tenant's failure to restore the Letter of Credit as required herein shall be a material breach of this lease. Landlord's resort to said Letter of Credit shall in no way or manner constitute an acceptance of or waiver of such failure by Tenant to comply with this lease; nor shall resort to said Letter of Credit terminate, or permit Tenant to terminate, or constitute a forfeiture of or be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate, this lease; nor shall such resort affect Landlord's remedies otherwise available under this lease or at law. Tenant may at any time during the term, deposit with Landlord a cash deposit of nineteen thousand two hundred seventy-two and 72/100 ($19,272.72) as a security deposit in lieu of the aforementioned Letter of Credit, in which event said Letter of Credit shall be promptly returned to Tenant. If Tenant thereafter defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease including but not limited to the provisions relating to the payment of rent and other amounts due Landlord, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of such security deposit for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend by reason of Tenant's default or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default. If any portion of said deposit is so used, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, deposit in cash with Landlord in the amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to its original amount; Tenant's failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep this security deposit separate from its general funds and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit. At the termination of this Lease, the security deposit or the unused balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant after Tenant vacates the Premises. 5. ADJUSTMENT OF MONTHLY RENT The monthly rent provided for in paragraph 4(a) shall not be adjusted. If this lease commences on any date other than the first day of a month, then Landlord shall promptly prepare a statement within a reasonable time following lease commencement which prorates the initial rent due as set forth in paragraph 4 (a) and states the actual adjustment and termination dates of the lease. -4- 6. RESTRICTION ON USE Tenant shall not do or permit to be done in or about the Premises or the Project, nor bring or keep or permit to be brought or (?) in or about the Premises or Project, anything which is prohibited by or will in any way increase the existing rate of (or otherwise affect) (?) or any other insurance covering the Project or any part thereof or any of its contents therein (unless in any such case, Tenant agrees in advance to pay any such increase), or will cause a cancellation of any insurance covering the Project or any part thereof, or any of its contents. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything in or about the Premises or Project which will constitute waste or which will unreasonably obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Project or injure or unreasonably annoy them, or use or allow the Premises to be used for any unlawful purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in or about the Premises or the Project. No loudspeaker or other device, system or apparatus which can be heard outside the Premises shall be used in or at the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant shall not use the Premises for sleeping, washing clothes, cooking (except in the lunch room) or the preparation, manufacture or mixing of anything that might emit any unreasonable and objectionable odor, noises or lights into the adjoining premises or common areas, or Project. Tenant shall not do anything on the Premises that will cause damage to the Project or the building in which the Premises are located and the Premises shall not be overloaded. No machinery, apparatus or other appliance shall be used or operated in or on the Premises that will so injure, vibrate or shake the Premises so as to damage the building. Landlord shall be the reasonable judge of whether such odors, noises, lights or vibrations are such as to violate the provisions of this paragraph. No waste materials or refuse shall be dumped upon or permitted to remain upon any part of the Premises or outside of the building proper except in trash containers placed inside exterior enclosures designated for that purpose by Landlord, or inside of the building proper where designated; and no toxic or hazardous materials shall be disposed of through the plumbing or sewage system. No materials, supplies, equipment, -5- finished products or semifinished products, raw materials or articles of any nature shall be stored or permitted to remain outside of the building proper. Only occasional retail sales shall be made on the Premises. 7. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS Tenant shall, in connection with its use and occupation of the Premises, at its sole cost and expense, promptly observe and (?) with (i) all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental rules, regulations or requirements now or hereafter in effect, (ii) with the requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter constituted and (iii) with any direction or occupancy certificate issued pursuant to law by any public authority; provided, however, that no such failure shall be deemed a breach of these provisions if Tenant, immediately upon notification, commences to remedy or rectify said failure. (See also paragraph 50). The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any action against Tenant, whether Landlord (?) a party thereto or not, that Tenant has violated any such law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule, regulation, requirement, direction or provision, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Notwithstanding the above and except as otherwise specifically provided in Exhibit C, Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, make any additions or changes to the Premises as may be required to bring the Premises into compliance with laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental rules, regulations or requirements in effect at the commencement date of this lease. 8. ALTERATIONS Tenant shall not make or suffer to be made any alteration, addition or improvement to or of the Premises or any part thereof (collectively referred to herein as "alterations") without (1) the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be delayed by more than two (2) weeks (and if Landlord has not responded within two weeks then Landlord shall be deemed to have consented thereto), and (ii) a valid building permit issued by the appropriate governmental authority; provided, however, that if such permit is not required, then it shall be sufficient that the alteration, addition (?) improvement be in compliance with applicable governmental regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may make alterations costing five thousand and no/100 ($5,000) or less without the prior written consent of Landlord but shall, in such event, promptly inform Landlord of the nature of the alteration, the cost thereof and the contractor engaged or prepared to be engaged to perform such work, and all such work shall be done pursuant to a valid building permit (or, if no such permit is required then in accordance with applicable governmental regulations). -6- Any alteration made by Tenant (excluding moveable furniture and trade fixtures not attached to the Premises) shall at once become a part of the Premises and belong to Landlord. Without limiting the foregoing, all heating, lighting, electrical (including all wiring, conduit, outlets, drops, buss ducts, main and subpanels), air conditioning, partitioning, drapery and carpet installations made by Tenant regardless of how attached to the Premises, together with all other alterations that have become an integral part of the building in which the Premises are a part, shall be and become part of the Premises and belong to Landlord upon installation and shall not be deemed trade fixtures, (except as specifically permitted by this paragraph 8) shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the termination of the lease. At any time during the lease term, Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense and on not less than thirty (30) days' prior notice to Landlord, remove and keep any alteration originally made by Tenant at its cost and expense, provided that Tenant shall repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal and restore the affected area to the condition existing prior to such alteration; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may not remove such alteration, to the extent they constitute Standard Tenant Improvements, within the last twelve (12) months of the lease term. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of the term, Landlord may, at its sole option, require Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to promptly both remove any alteration made by Tenant during the term and Tenant shall repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal. Nothing herein shall restrict Tenant's right to remove its moveable furniture or trade fixtures, providing that any movable furniture and equipment or trade fixtures remaining on the Premises at the expiration or other termination of the term shall become the property of Landlord unless promptly removed by Tenant. Any alteration (including the removal of past alterations) by Tenant shall be made by Tenant at its sole risk, cost and expense. Alterations requiring Landlord's consent (and the removal of past alterations where such work costs in excess of $5,000) shall be made only after Landlord's written approval of any contractor or person selected by Tenant for that purpose, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld. If during the term any alteration, addition or change (?) the Premises is required by law, regulation, ordinance or order of any public authority, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly make the same. If during the term any alteration or change to the Common Area (or to the Project or building in which the Premises is located and it being, in Landlord's judgment, impractical for the affected tenants to individually make such alterations, additions or changes) is required by law, regulation, ordinance or order of any public or quasi-public authority the cost of such alteration or change shall be a Common Area Change and Tenant shall pay its percentage share of said costs to Landlord as provided in paragraph 16. (See also paragraph 50). -7- 9. REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE By entry hereunder Tenant accepts the Premises as being in good and sanitary order, condition and repair (excepting only "punchlist items" provided however that such acceptance shall not be deemed a waiver with respect to structural defects, non-compliance with applicable laws or other items not reasonably ascertainable on walk through inspection). Except as expressly provided below, Tenant shall at its cost keep and maintain the entire Premises and every part thereof including, without limitations, the windows, window frames, plate glass, glazing, truck doors, doors and all door hardware, the interior walls and partitions, lighting and the electrical and plumbing systems. Tenant shall also repair and maintain the heating and air conditioning systems (unless Landlord has elected to keep and maintain the heating and air conditioning systems as provided below) which shall include, without limitation, a periodic maintenance agreement with a reputable and licensed heating and air conditioning service company. If Tenant's use of the heating and air conditioning systems is limited to normal business hours (8 a.m. to 6 p.m.), such agreement shall provide for service at least as often as every 60 days; if Tenant's use of the heating or air conditioning systems extends beyond such normal business hours, this service shall be as often as may be required by Landlord; and in any event such service shall meet all warranty enforcement requirements of such equipment and comply with all manufacturer recommended maintenance. Landlord may elect, at its option, to keep and maintain the heating and air conditioning systems of the Premises and in such event, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full cost of such maintenance and of repairs to such systems. In no case shall Tenant be obligated for repairs and maintenance for (i) structural elements of the building (ii) defects in construction work of Landlord, (iii) repairs or maintenance arising from defaults of Landlord under this Lease, (iv) items which Landlord is obligated to restore pursuant to paragraph 17. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 17, Landlord shall keep and maintain at its cost and expense the roof, structural elements, exterior walls of the buildings constituting the Project and Common Area in good order and repair. Landlord agrees to repair or correct, at its cost and expense, all defects in design, materials and workmanship in the Premises and Project which materially affect Tenant's use or occupancy thereof, provided such obligation of Landlord shall not extend to design criteria and/or specifications for computer rooms or other special improvement areas specifically provided by Tenant. If any repairs or maintenance is required because of an act or omission of Tenant, or its agents, employees or invitees, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full costs of such repairs of maintenance. 10. LIENS Tenant shall keep the Premises and the Project free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within ten (10) days following notice of the imposition of such lien, cause the same to be released of record, Landlord shall have, in addition -8- to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right, but no obligation, to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien, sums paid by Landlord for such purpose, and all expenses incurred by (?) connection therewith, shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant on demand with interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. Landlord shall have right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices permitted or required by law, or which Landlord shall deem proper for the protection of Landlord, the Premises and the Project and any other parties having an interest therein, from mechanics' and materialmen's liens and like liens. Tenant shall give Landlord at least fifteen (15) days' prior notice of the date of commencement of any construction on the Premises in order to permit the posting of such notices. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph 10, Tenant shall have the right to contest the correctness or validity of any lien referenced in this paragraph 10 if, promptly after written demand by Landlord, Tenant procures and records a lien release (?) bond issued by a corporation authorized to issue surety bonds in California, or delivers to Landlord a Letter of Credit or other suitable security in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, in an amount equal to the amount of the claim of lien. 11. INSURANCE Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall keep in force during the term (i) public liability insurance with limits of at least $2,000,000 per occurrence for injuries to or death of persons occurring in, on or about the Premises or the Project and property damage insurance with limits of at least $2,000,000 per occurrence and (ii) Worker's Compensation insurance as required by the State of California. All such policies shall be primary and shall provide that said insurance shall not be cancelled or reduced except upon at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord. Further, Tenant's public liability insurance shall name Landlord or Additional Insured using ISO Bureau For G109 or G112001 (or a successor form); shall contain cross-liability endorsements; and shall be issued by an insurance company admitted to transact business in the State of California. Landlord agrees to pay on demand up to $25.00 for the Additional Insured Endorsement. Tenant shall, prior to the commencement of the term, provide Landlord with a completed Certificate of Insurance using Acord Form 25, a blank copy of which is attached to this lease. Tenant agrees to increase the coverages or otherwise comply with changes in connection with said public liability, property damage and Worker's Compensation Insurance as Landlord or Landlord's lender may from time to time require. Landlord shall obtain and keep in force a policy or policies of insurance covering loss or damage to the Premises, in the amount of the full replacement value thereof, providing protection against those perils included within the classification of "all risk" insurance, with increased cost of reconstruction and contingent liability (including -9- demolition) and flood and/or earthquake insurance if available, plus a policy of rental income insurance in the amount of 100% of twelve (12) months' rent (including sums paid as additional rent) and such other insurance as Landlord or Landlord's lender may from time to time require. The cost of all such insurance purchased by Landlord, plus any charges deferred payment of premiums and any deductible paid by Landlord, shall (?) Common Area Charges and Tenant shall pay its percentage share of such costs as provided in paragraph 16 (provided that if the loss is not due to an act or omission of Tenant or its agents, employees or invitees, any such deductible paid by Landlord shall be amortized and included in Common Area Charges at the rate of 1/120th thereof per month through the remaining term of this lease, and in such event there shall also be included Common Area Charges interest at the rate of twelve (12%) on the balance of such deductible remaining from time to time). If insurance costs are increased due to Tenant's use of the Premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full cost of such increase not less than ten (10) days before Landlord is obligated to pay such increased premium (but not less than ten (10) days after Landlord delivers to Tenant a statement from landlord's insurance carrier stating the amount of the increase and the reason therefor). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be obligated to pay any portion of premiums for earthquake insurance if Landlord sells the Project or Premises unless earthquake insurance is the (?) customary for buildings in the same general location in the County of Santa Clara and of substantially similar type, construction and use, or such insurance is required by purchaser's lender. If insurance costs are increased due to Tenant's use of the Premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full cost of such increase. Tenant shall be named as an additional insured in Landlord's insurance policy. Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive any and all rights of recovery against one another for real or personal property loss or damage occurring to the Premises, the Project, or any part thereof, or any personal property therein, from perils insured against under fire and extended insurance and any other property insurance policies existing for the benefit of the respective parties and each party shall cause each such insurance policy obtained by it to provide that the insurance company waives all rights of recovery by way of subrogation against either party in connection with any loss or damage covered by such policy. If additional premiums must be paid, Tenant shall pay such additional premiums necessary to obtain such waver. A copy of the Waiver of Subrogation in favor of Landlord shall be attached to the Tenant's completed Acord Form 25. Tenant shall be named as an additional insured on Landlord's policy and Tenant's rights are subject to a mortgage loss payee clause that Landlord's lender may require. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove contained, Tenant shall be responsible for carrying, and shall pay the cost of, any casual insurance as Tenant deems appropriate with respect to any Tenant's personal property and fixtures and any tenant improvements not the property of Landlord. -10- 12. UTILITIES AND SERVICES Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, light, heat, (?), electricity, telephone, trash pickup, sewer charges and all other services supplied to or consumed on the Premises. In the event that any service is not separately metered to the Premises, the cost of such utility services shall be a Common Area Charge and Tenant shall pay its percentage share of such cost to Landlord as provided in paragraph 16. In addition, the cost of any utility service supplied to the Common Area shall be a Common Area Charge and Tenant shall pay its percentage share of such cost to Landlord as provided in paragraph 16. If Tenant's use of any such utility service is materially in excess of the average furnished to the other tenants of the Project and such utility service is not separately metered, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full cost of such excess, or Landlord may cause such utility service to be separately metered, in which case Tenant shall pay the full cost of installing the separate meter. Landlord shall not be liable for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to, any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of the failure by any person or entity to furnish any of the foregoing utility services when such failure is caused by any cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. 13. TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES All real estate taxes and assessments and other taxes, fees and charges of every kind or nature levied or assessed against the Project or any part thereof during the term by any federal, state, county, regional, municipal or other governmental or quasi-public authority shall be a Common Area Charge and payable by Tenant as set forth in paragraph 16. To the extent that any taxes set forth in this paragraph 13 for which Tenant is responsible decrease, Tenant's proportionate share of such taxes shall be reduced accordingly by means of reducing Tenant's share of the Common Area charge. By way of illustration and not limitation, "other taxes, fees and charges" as used herein include any and all taxes payable by Landlord (other than state and federal personal or corporate income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources, premium taxes or Landlord's franchise, estate, inheritance, successions, or gift taxes), whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties hereto, (i) upon, allocable to, or measured by the rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any gross income or excise tax levied by the local, state or federal government with respect to the receipt of such rent, (ii) upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operating, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use of occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any part thereof, (iii) upon or measured by the value of Tenant's personal property or leasehold improvements located in the Premises, (iv) upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or estate in the Premises, (v) upon or with respect to parking or the number of persons employed in or about the Project, and (vi) any tax, license, franchise free or other imposition upon Landlord which is otherwise measured by or based in whole or in part upon the Project or any -11- portion thereof. If Landlord contests any such tax, fee or charge, the cost and expense incurred by Landlord thereby shall also be a Common Area Charge and payable by Tenant as set forth in paragraph 16. In the event the Premises and any improvements installed therein by Tenant or Landlord are valued by the assessor disproportionately higher or lower than those (?) of other tenants in the building or Project or in the event alterations (?) improvements are made to the Premises, Tenant's percentage share of such taxes, assessments, fees and/or charges shall be readjusted upward or downward accordingly and Tenant agrees to pay such readjusted share. Such determination shall be made by Landlord from the respective valuations assigned in the assessor's work sheet or such other information was may (?) reasonably available and Landlord's determination thereof shall be conclusive. Tenant at its cost shall have the right at any time to seek a reduction in the assessed valuation of the Premises or the Project or to contest any real property taxes, assessments, fees or other taxes and charges that are to be paid by Tenant; provided, however, that any such contest or proceeding shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense and provided further that Tenant shall hold Landlord and the Premises and the Project harmless therefrom. Landlord shall not be required to join in any proceeding or contest brought by Tenant unless the provisions of any law require that the proceeding or contest be brought by or in the name of Landlord or any owner of the Premises. In that case Landlord shall cooperate and join in the proceeding or contest or permit it to be brought in Landlord's name as long as Landlord is not required to bear any cost. If Tenant seeks to reduce or contest any such tax, assessment, fee or other charge and if requested by Tenant, Landlord agrees to pay such tax assessment, fee or charge under protest and to otherwise deal with the appropriate authority in a manner consistent with Tenant's contest or proceeding and the applicable rules, regulations or procedures of such authority. In the event Tenant obtains any refund attributable to the Premises, such refund shall belong to Tenant. Tenant agrees to pay, before delinquency, any and all taxes levied or assessed during the term hereof upon Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises, including carpeting and other property installed by Tenant notwithstanding that such carpeting or other property has become a part of the Premises. All taxes or other charges due under this paragraph 13 shall be prorated to reflect the portion of any such tax or charge attributable to the period between the commencement and termination dates of the lease. 14. ENTRY BY LANDLORD Landlord reserves, and shall at all reasonable times have, the right to enter the Premises, (i) to inspect the Premises, (ii) to supply services to be provided by Landlord hereunder, (iii) to show the Premises to prospective purchasers or lenders and put 'for sale' signs thereon, (iv) during the last six months of the term, or during any period when Tenant is in default, to show the Premises to prospective tenants and to put 'for lease' signs thereon, (v) to post notices required or allowed by this lease or by law, (vi) to alter, improve or repair the Premises and -12- any portion of the Project, and (vii) to erect scaffolding and other necessary structures in or through the Premises or the Project where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed. Except to the extent Landlord is negligent, or engages in willful misconduct, the exercise of its right of entry hereunder, Landlord shall not be liable in any manner for any inconvenience, disturbance, loss of business, nuisance or other damage arising from Landlord's entry and acts pursuant to this (?) paragraph and Tenant shall not be entitled to an abatement or reduction in rent if Landlord exercises any rights reserved in this paragraph. For (?) each of the foregoing purposes, Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises. Any entry by Landlord to the Premises pursuant to this paragraph shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into (?) a detainer of the Premises or an eviction, actual or constructive, of (?) Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof. Landlord shall also have the right at any time to change the name (provided that such name is not the name of one of Tenant's major competitors) or designation by which (?) Project is commonly known. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph 14, Landlord may not enter the Premises, except in the case of an emergency, unless (i) Landlord has given Tenant at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior notice of its intent to enter and (ii) such inspection is subject to the reasonable security requirements of Tenant, and (iii) such entry by Landlord shall not materially and unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises. Landlord shall not materially block or obstruct Tenant's front entrance, nor erect scaffolding within the Premises unless reasonably required in order for Landlord to fulfill its obligations under this lease. 15. COMMON AREA Subject to the terms and conditions of this lease and such rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe, Tenant and Tenant's employees, invitees and customers shall, in common with other occupants of the Project in which the Premises are located, (?) and their respective employees, invitees and customers and others entitled to the use thereof, have the nonexclusive right to use the access roads, parking areas and facilities provided and designated by Landlord for the general use and convenience of the occupants of the Project, which areas and facilities are referred to herein as "Common Area". This right shall terminate upon the termination of this lease. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to make changes in the shape, size, location, amount and extent of the Common Area provided that such changes do not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Tenant's business. Landlord further reserves the right to promulgate such rules and regulations relating to the use of the Common Area, and any part thereof, as Landlord may deem appropriate for the best interests of the occupants of the Project. The rules and regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant and Tenant shall abide by them and cooperate in their observance. Such rules and regu- -13- lations may be amended by Landlord from time to time, with or without advance notice, but shall not unreasonably and materially diminish Tenant's use of the Premises or the Common Area. Tenant shall be assigned the use of no less than one hundred seventeen (117) parking spaces in the Common Area as designated from time to time by Landlord. Landlord agrees to label at its expense (?) to ten (10) visitors stalls; and Landlord, at the request and expense of Tenant agrees to label the remaining (107) parking spaces. It is agreed that Landlord is not responsible for policing any of such parking spaces. Tenant shall not at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant's trucks or other vehicles, or the trucks or other vehicles of others, adjacent to loading areas so as to interfere in any way with the use of such areas; nor shall Tenant at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant's vehicles or trucks, or the vehicles or trucks of Tenant's suppliers or others, in any portion of the Common Area not designated by Landlord for such use by Tenant. Tenant shall not park or permit any inoperative vehicle or equipment to be parked on any portion of the Common Area. Landlord shall operate, manage and maintain the Common Area. The manner in which the Common Area shall be operated, managed and maintained and the expenditures for such operation, management and maintenance shall be at the sole, but reasonable, discretion of Landlord. The cost of such maintenance, operation and management, including but not limited to landscaping, repair of paving, parking lots and sidewalks, security services and salaries and employee benefits (including union benefits) of on-site and accounting personnel engaged in such maintenance and operations management (but excluding payments on loans or ground leases, brokerage commission and costs directly related to leasing the Project, damages caused by other tenants or their employees or agents, the cost of repair or correction of construction defects, and management fees in excess of the five percent (5%) referred to in paragraph 16 below) shall be a Common Area Charge and Tenant shall pay to Landlord its percentage share of such costs as provided in paragraph 16. 16. COMMON AREA CHARGES Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, an amount equal to 28.7% (29,424 [divided by] 102,528 square feet) of the total Common Area Charges as defined in this lease. Tenant further agrees that Common Area Charges shall include an additional 5% of the actual expenditures for the aggregate of all other Common Area Charges in order to compensate Landlord for accounting and processing services. Tenant's percentage share of Common Area Charges shall be paid as follows: At or prior to the commencement of the term and to the commencement of each calendar year of the term, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written estimate of total Common Area Charges during the balance of the calendar year in which the term commences and each succeeding calendar year, respectively. Tenant shall pay, as additional rent, on the first day of each month during the calendar year (or portion thereof) covered by such estimate, its percentage months share of Common Area Charges as shown on such estimate. Within thirty (30) days of the end of -14- each calendar year and of the end of the term, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of actual Common Area Charges incurred for the preceding year, or, in the case of a statement after the end of the term, covering the year in which the lease terminates. If such statement shows that Tenant has paid less than its actual percentage then Tenant shall on demand pay to Landlord the amount of such deficiency. If such statement shows that Tenant has paid more than its percentage share then Landlord shall, at its option, promptly refund such excess to Tenant or credit the amount thereof to the rent next becoming due from Tenant. Landlord reserves the right to revise any estimate of Common Area Charges if actual or projected Common Area Charges show an increase or decrease in excess of 10% from any earlier estimate for the same period. In such event, Landlord shall deliver the revised estimate to Tenant, together with an explanation of the reasons therefor, and Tenant shall revise its payments accordingly. Landlord's and Tenant's obligations with respect to adjustments at the end of the term of this lease shall survive such termination. Landlord shall allow Tenant reasonable access to Landlord's books and records respecting Common Area Charges. Tenant shall be entitled to cause a certified public accountant to perform an audit of the statement of actual Common Area Charges for the preceding year, and in the event such audit shall establish that the amount shown on such statement overstates by more than two percent (2%) the amount Tenant is liable for then Landlord shall promptly reimburse to Tenant any sums overpaid by Tenant, together with interest on the overpaid amounts at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum and the cost of such audit. In the event such audit shall not establish such overstatement, Tenant shall pay the entire cost of such audit. 17. DAMAGE BY FIRE; CASUALTY In the event the Premises are damaged by any casualty which is covered under an insurance policy required to be maintained pursuant to paragraph 11, or in the event the Premises are damaged by any casualty not covered under an insurance policy required to be maintained pursuant to paragraph 11 and the cost of restoration is less than fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00), Landlord shall be entitled to the use of all insurance proceeds and shall repair such damage and restore the Premises to substantially the condition existing prior to such damage, and this lease shall continue in full force and effect provided however in the event the Premises cannot be reasonably and lawfully restored within nine (9) months of the date of such damage, either party may terminate this Lease effective upon written notice of termination given to the other party within thirty (30) days of the date of such damage. Tenant shall on demand pay to Landlord the amount equal to the deductible under any such insurance, except as provided in paragraph 11. In the event the Premises are damaged by any casualty not covered under an insurance policy required to be maintained pursuant to paragraph 11 and the cost of restoration is fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) or more, Landlord may, at Landlord's option, either (i) repair such damage, at Landlord's expense, as soon as reasonably possible in which event this lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) -15- give written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damages of Landlord's intention to cancel and terminate this lease as of the date of the occurrence of the damages; provided, however, that if such damage is caused by an act or omission to act of Tenant or its agent, servants or employees, then Tenant shall repair such damage promptly at its sole cost and expense. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this lease pursuant hereto, Tenant shall have the right within ten (10) days after receipt of the required notice to notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's intention to repair such damage at Tenant's expense, without reimbursement from Landlord, in which event the lease shall continue to full force and effect and Tenant shall proceed to make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible. If Tenant does not give such notice within the ten (10) day period, this lease shall be cancelled and terminated as of the date of the occurrence of such damage. Under no circumstances shall Landlord be required to repair any injury or damage by fire or other cause, or to make any restoration or replacement of, any of Tenant's personal property, trade fixtures or property leased from third parties, whether or not the same is attached to the Premises. If the Premises are totally destroyed during the term from any cause (including any destruction required by any authorized public authority), whether or not covered by the insurance required under paragraph 11, this lease shall automatically terminate as of the date of such total destruction; provided, however, that if the Premises can reasonably and lawfully be repaired or restored within nine (9) months of the date of destruction to substantially the condition existing prior to such destruction and if the proceeds of the insurance payable to the Landlord by reason of such destruction is sufficient to pay the cost of such repair or restoration, then the said insurance proceeds shall be so applied, Landlord shall promptly repair and restore the Premises and this lease shall continue, without interruption, in full force and effect. If the Premises are totally destroyed during the last twelve (12) months of the term, Landlord may at Landlord's option cancel and terminate this lease as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Tenant of Landlord's election to do so within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such damage. If the Premises are partially or totally destroyed or damaged and Landlord or Tenant repair them pursuant to this lease, the rent payable hereunder for the period during which such damage and repair continues shall be abated in proportion to the square footage rendered unusable to Tenant or Tenant's business operations by reason of such damage or destruction. 18. INDEMNIFICATION Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of property in or about the Premises or the Project by or from any cause whatsoever except the negligence or wilful misconduct of Landlord or its authorized representatives. Except as to injury to persons or damage to property the principal cause of which is the negligence or wilful misconduct of Landlord or its authorized representatives, Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord -16- against any liability, loss, damage or expense, including attorney fees arising out of any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of property occurring in, on or about the Premises from any cause whatsoever. Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord against any liability, loss, damage, or expense, including attorney fees, arising (i) out of the failure of Tenant to observe or comply with laws or other requirements as set forth in paragraph 7, or (ii) by reason of any labor or service performed for, or materials used or furnished to, Tenant or any contractor engaged by Tenant with respect to the Premises. The provision of this paragraph shall survive the expiration of earlier termination of this lease. In no event shall Tenant's obligations to hold Landlord harmless and indemnify Landlord include (i) liability, loss, damage or expense arising from defects in Landlord's construction work or from defaults by Landlord under this Lease and, (ii) liability, loss, damage or expense arising from the acts or omissions of other tenants in the property. 19. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING Tenant shall not voluntarily assign, encumber or otherwise transfer its interest in this lease or in the Premises, or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or allow any other person or entity to occupy or use all or any part of the Premises, without first obtaining Landlord's written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any assignment, encumbrance or sublease without Landlord's election, shall constitute a default. If Tenant desires to sublet or assign all or any portion of the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice thereof, specifying the projected commencement date of the proposed sublet or assignment (which date shall be not less than fifteen (15) days or more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of such notice), the portions of the Premises proposed to be sublet or assigned and the identity of the proposed assignee or subtenant. Tenant shall further provide Landlord with such other information concerning the proposed assignee or subtenant as reasonably requested by Landlord. Except as set forth below, Landlord shall inform Tenant of Landlord's consent, or lack of consent, to the proposed sublet or assignment within ten (10) days from the date of receipt by Landlord of the notice from Tenant and Landlord's failure to respond within such time shall be deemed to be a consent to such sublet or assignment, provided that if Landlord has not received such other information concerning the proposed assignee or subtenant then such period shall be extended to three (3) days after the receipt of such information. In the case of any proposed assignment, or in the case of a proposed sublet of all of the Premises at a time when Tenant has not occupied the Premises or if the proposed sublet is for the entire Premises fora sublet term ending within the last twelve (12) months of the term of this lease, Landlord shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to be delivered to Tenant within thirty (30) days of receipt of Tenant's notice to terminate this lease effective as of the date specified in Tenant's notice as the proposed commencement date of the assignment or sublease. If Landlord does not elect to terminate this lease and if Landlord consents in writing to the proposed assignment of sublet, Tenant shall be -17- free to assign or sublet all or a portion of the Premises subject to the following conditions: (i) any sublease shall be on the same terms set forth in the notice given to Landlord; (ii) no sublease shall be valid (?) no subtenant shall take possession of the sublet premises until an executed counterpart of such sublease has been delivered to Landlord; (iii) no subtenant shall have a further right to sublet without Landlord's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; (iv) except as to a sublet for a portion of the Premises during the first eighteen (18) months of the term, one-half of any sums or other economic consideration received by Tenant as a result of such assignment or sublet (except rent or other payments received which are attributable to the amortization over the term of this lease of the cost of leasehold improvements constructed for such assignees or subtenant, and brokerage fees) whether denominated rentals or otherwise, which exceed, in the aggregate, the total sums which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this lease (prorated 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; and (v) no sublet or assignment shall release Tenant of Tenant's obligation or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the 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 assignment or sublet shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or sublet. In the event of default by any assignee of Tenant or any successor of Tenant 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 provided that Landlord gives Tenant notice of such default and five (5) days to cure same. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or sublets or this lease or amendments or modifications to this lease with assignees of Tenant, without notifying Tenant, or any successor of Tenant and without obtaining its or their consent thereto and such action shall not relieve Tenant of liability under this lease. Notwithstanding the above provisions of this paragraph 19, Tenant may, without obtaining the consent of Landlord and without Landlord having the right to terminate this lease as set forth above, assign or sublease the whole or any part of the Premises to any corporation or other entity which acquires or is acquired by Circadian or which results from a merger or consolidation with Circadian or which either controls or is controlled by Circadian or which is controlled by any of the foregoing, provided that (i) Tenant shall continue to be fully obligated for the timely performance of all the terms, covenants, agreements and conditions of this lease and (ii) such assignee or subtenant agrees in writing to be subject to and governed by all of the terms, covenants, agreements and conditions of this lease and such agreement by assignee or subtenant is promptly given to Tenant. Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of any such assignment or sublease as provided above in this paragraph 19, and any such assignment or subletting shall be subject to the conditions for other assignments and sublettings set forth above. -18- No interest of Tenant in this lease shall be assignable by operation of law (including, without limitation, the transfer of this lease by testacy or intestacy). Each of the following acts shall be considered an involuntary assignment: (i) if Tenant is or becomes bankrupt or insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or institutes (or has instituted against it) a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Act in which Tenant is the bankrupt; or if Tenant is a partnership or consists of more than one person or entity, if any partner of the partnership or other person or entity is or becomes bankrupt or insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) if a writ of attachment or execution is levied on this lease; or (iii) if, in any proceeding or action to which Tenant is a party, a receiver is appointed with authority to take possession of the Premises. An involuntary assignment shall constitute a default by Tenant and Landlord shall have the right to elect to terminate this lease, in which case this lease shall (?) be treated as an asset of Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a writ of attachment or execution is levied on this lease then Tenant shall have seven (7) days in which to remove same, and if an involuntary proceeding in bankruptcy is brought against Tenant then Tenant shall have thirty (30) days to have such proceedings dismissed. Tenant immediately and irrevocably assigns to Landlord as security for Tenant's obligations under this lease, all rent from any subletting of all or a part of the Premises as permitted by this lease, and Landlord, as assignee and as attorney-in-fact for Tenant, or a receiver of Tenant appointed on Landlord's application, any collect such rent and apply it toward Tenant's obligations under this lease; except that, until the occurrence of an act of default by Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to collect such rent, subject to promptly forwarding to Landlord any portion thereof to which Landlord is entitled pursuant to this paragraph 19. 20. DEFAULT The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant: (i) failure to pay any rent or other sum payable hereunder within ten (10) days of written notice from Landlord of failure to make such payment when due; (ii) abandonment of the Premises; or (iii) failure to perform any other term, covenant or condition of this lease (?) the failure to perform is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof has been given to Tenant (provided that if such default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, Tenant shall not be (?) default within the thirty (30) days period and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the default). The notice referred to in (iii) above shall specify the alleged default and the applicable lease provisions and shall demand that Tenant perform the provisions of this lease within the applicable period of time and no such notice shall be deemed a forfeiture or termination of this lease unless Landlord so elects in the notice. In the event of a default by Tenant, then Landlord, in addition to any other rights and remedies at law or in equity, shall have the right either to terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises -19- and thereby terminate this lease or, from time to time and without terminate on this lease relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account and in the name of Tenant for such term and on such terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. Should Landlord elect to keep this lease in full force and effect, Landlord shall have the right to enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this lease, including but not limited to the right to recover and to relet the Premises. If Landlord relets the Premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, the costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting and shall be applied (i) to the payment of any indebtedness due hereunder, other than monthly rent, from Tenant to Landlord; (ii) to the payment of the cost of any repairs necessary to return the Premises to good condition normal wear and tear excepted, including the cost of alterations and the cost of storing any of Tenant's property left on the Premises at the time of reletting; and (iii) to the payment of monthly rent due and unpaid hereunder. The residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent or damages in the event of termination as the same may become due and payable hereunder and the balance, if any at the end of the term of this lease, shall be paid by Tenant. Should the monthly rent and Common Area Charges received from time to time from such reletting during any month be less than that agreed to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. No such reletting of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as election on its part to terminate this lease unless a notice of such intention is given to tenant or unless the termination hereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this lease for such previous breach, provided it has not been cured. Should Landlord at any time terminate this lease for any breach, in addition to any other remedy it may have it shall have the immediate right of entry and may remove all persons and property from the Premises and, in addition to all its other rights and remedies, shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages it may incur by reason of such breach, including the cost of recovering the Premises and including (i) all amounts that would have fallen due as rent between the time of termination of this lease and the time of the judgment or other award plus interest on the balance at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per year, but less the avails of relettings and attornments; (ii) the worth at the time of the judgment or other award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant provides could be reasonably avoided; (iii) 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. "Worth" as used in this provision is computed by discounting the total at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the judgment or award plus one percent (1%). Property removed from the Premises may be stored in a public or private warehouse or elsewhere at -20- the sole cost and expense of Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not immediately pay the cost of storage of such property after the same has been stored for a period of thirty (30) days or more, Landlord may sell any or all there of at a public or private sale in such manner and at such times and places at Landlord in its sole discretion may deem proper, without notice to or demand upon Tenant. Any proof by Tenant under subparagraphs (2) and (3) or section 1951.2(a) of the California Civil Code of the amount of rental loss that could be reasonably avoided shall be made in the following manner: Landlord and Tenant shall each select a licensed real estate broker in the business of renting property at the same type and use as the Premises in the same geographical vicinity. Such two real estate brokers shall select a third licensed real estate broker, and the three licensed real estate brokers so selected shall determine the amount of the rental loss that could be reasonably avoided for the balance of the terms after the time of award. The decision of the majority of said licensed real estate brokers shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto. 21. LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE TENANT'S DEFAULT Landlord, at any time after Tenant commits a default, can cure the default at Tenant's cost. If Landlord at any time, by reason of Tenant's default, pays any sum or does any act that requires the payment of any sum, the sum paid by Landlord shall be due immediately from Tenant to Landlord at the time the sum is paid, and if paid at a later date shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less, from the date the sum is paid by Landlord until Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant. This sum, together with interest on it, shall be additional rent. 22. EMINENT DOMAIN If all or any part of the Premises shall be taken by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof, this lease shall terminate as to any portion of the Premises so taken or conveyed on the date when title vests in the condemnor, and Landlord shall be entitled to any and all payments, income rent or award (or any interest therein) which may be paid or made in connection with such taking or conveyance. Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or otherwise for the value of any unexpired term of this lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to, (i) the value of relocation expenses of Tenant necessitated by such taking, and (ii) any compensation for deprecation to and loss or removal of equipment and fixtures, but in each case only to the extent the condemning authority makes a separate award therefor or specifically identifies a portion of the award as being therefor. Each party waives the provisions of Section 1265.130 of the Code of Civil Procedure (which section allows either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this lease in the event of a partial taking of the Premises). If any action or proceeding is commenced for such taking of the Premises or any portion thereof or of any other space in the Project, or if Landlord is advised in writing by any entity or body having -21- the right of power of condemnation of its intention to condemn the Premises or any portion thereof or of any other space in the Project, or if Landlord is advised in writing by an entity or body having the right (?) power of condemnation of its intention to condemn the Premises or any portion thereof or of any other space in the Project, and Landlord shall decide to discontinue the use and operation of the Project or decide to demolish, alter or rebuild the Project, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this lease by giving Tenant written notice thereof within sixty (60) days of the date of receipt of said written advice or the commencement of said action or proceeding. Such termination shall take place on the last day of the calendar month next following the month in which such notice is given or the date on which title shall vest in the condemnor, whichever occurs first. In the event of a partial taking, or conveyance in lieu thereof, of the Premises and twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the number of square feet in the Premises are taken, or of the Common Area and the Premises thereby fails to meet applicable governmental rules and regulations concerning the minimum number of parking spaces for similar zoned premises in the City of San Jose or if twenty percent (20%) or more of Tenant's parking spaces are taken, then Tenant may terminate this lease. Any election by Tenant to so terminate shall be by written notice given to Landlord within sixty (60) days from the date of such taking or conveyance and shall be effective on receipt of such written notice by Landlord. If a portion of the Premises be taken by power of eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall terminate this lease then this lease shall continue in full force and effect as to the part of the Premises not so taken or conveyed and all payments of rental shall be apportioned as of the date of such taking or conveyance so that thereafter the amounts to be paid by Tenant shall be in the ratio that the area of the portion of the Premises not so taken bears to the total area of the Premises prior to such taking. 23. COVENANT TO SURRENDER On the last day of the term or on the effective date of any earlier termination, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord the Premises and all of Tenant's improvements and alterations in their condition existing as of the commencement of the term (reasonable wear and tear excepted), with all originally painted interior walls washed if marked or damaged, interior vinyl covered walls cleaned and repaired or replaced if marked or damaged, all carpets shampooed and cleaned, the air conditioning and heating system serviced and repaired by a reputable and licensed service firm (unless Landlord has elected to maintain such system pursuant to paragraph 9 above) and all floors cleaned and waxed; all to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord. Tenant shall remove all of Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures, together with improvements or alterations that Tenant is obligated or has the option to remove pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 8, from the Premises, and all such property not removed shall be deemed abandoned. At Tenant's request, Landlord shall inspect the Premises on the last day of the term and if Tenant has performed its obligation under this paragraph 23, Landlord agrees to acknowledge same in writing. -22- If the premises are not surrendered as required in (?) paragraph, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against (i) all expenses incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises in the manner and condition required by paragraphs 8 and 23, ((?) loss of rent by reason of Tenant's failure to so surrender the Premises and consequent delay in the commencement date of any subsequent lease with another party covering all or a portion of the Premises, and (iii) losses or damage arising from the cancellation of any subsequent lease covering the Premises or any portion thereof by reason of Tenant's failure to so surrender the Premises; provided that Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to mitigate these damages. It is agreed between Landlord and Tenants that the provisions of this paragraph shall survive termination of this lease. 24. TENANT'S QUITCLAIM At the expiration or earlier termination of this lease, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord, within ten (10) days after written demand from Landlord to Tenant, any quitclaim deed or other document required by any reputable title company, licensed to operate in the State of California, to remove the cloud or encumbrance created by this lease from the real property of which the Premises are a part. This obligation shall survive said expiration or termination. 25. HOLDING OVER Any holding over after the expiration or termination of this lease (with the written consent of Landlord delivered to Tenant) shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month at the monthly rent, as adjusted, in effect on the date of such expiration or termination. All provisions of this lease, except those pertaining to the terms and any option to extend, shall apply to the month to month tenancy. This provisions of this paragraph are in addition to, and do not affect, Landlord's right of re-entry or other rights hereunder or provided by law. If Tenant shall retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof without Landlord's consent following the expiration or sooner termination of this lease for any reason, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord for each day of such retention double the amount of the daily rental in effect during the last month prior to the date of such expiration or termination. Acceptance of rent by Landlord following expiration or termination shall not constitute a renewal of this lease, and nothing contained in this paragraph shall waive Landlord's right of re-entry or any other right. Tenant shall be only a Tenant at sufferance, whether or not Landlord accepts any rent from Tenant, while Tenant is holding over without Landlord's written consent. 26. SUBORDINATION In the event Landlord's title or leasehold interest is now or hereafter encumbered in order to secure a loan from an institutional lender to Landlord, Tenant shall, at the request of Landlord or the lender, execute in writing an agreement subordinating its rights under this lease to the lien of such encumbrance, or, if so requested, agreeing -23- that the lien of lender's encumbrance shall be or remain subject and subordinate to the rights of Tenant under this lease. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord the attorney in fact of Tenant to execute, deliver and record any such instrument or instruments for and in the name and on behalf of Tenant. Notwithstanding any such subordination, Tenant's (?) possession under this lease shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default and so long as Tenant shall pay all amounts due hereunder and otherwise observe and perform all provisions of this lease. If Landlord or such lender requests from Tenant such agreement subordinating its rights, Landlord shall, if Tenant so requests, deliver to Tenant a non-disturbance agreement from each and every lender holding a mortgage or deed of trust encumbering all or any portion of the Premises and which is then prior and superior to this lease, which non-disturbance agreement shall provided that such lender agrees that Tenant's possession and quiet enjoyment of the Premises shall not be disturbed by such lender so long as Tenant performs all of its obligations under this lease, and which shall otherwise be in form reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and such lender. 27. CERTIFICATE OF ESTOPPEL Each party shall, within ten (10) days after request therefor, execute and deliver to the other party, in recordable form, a certificate stating that the lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications. The certificate shall also state the amount of the monthly rent, the date to which monthly rent has been paid in advance, the amount of the security deposit and/or prepaid monthly rent, and, if the request is made by Landlord, shall include such other items as Landlord or Landlord's lender may reasonably request. Failure to deliver such certificate within such time shall constitute a conclusive acknowledgment by the party failing to deliver the certificate that the lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified except as may be represented by the party requesting the certificate. Any such certificate requested by Landlord may be conclusively relief upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises or Project. Further, within ten (10) days following written request made from time to time by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord current financial statements of Tenant, provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to deliver such financial statements more often than twice per year. 28. SALE BY LANDLORD In the event the original Landlord hereunder, or any successor owner of the Project or Premises, shall sell or convey the Project or Premises, all liabilities and obligations on the part of the original Landlord, or such successor owner, under this lease accruing thereafter shall terminate, provided all such liabilities and obligations shall be assumed and be binding upon the new owner. Tenant agrees to attorn to such new owner and to look solely to such new owner for performance of any and all such liabilities and obligations arising under this lease. Landlord or its successors shall give prompt notice to Tenant of any such sale or conveyance. -24- 29. ATTORNMENT TO LENDER OR THIRD PARTY In the event the interest of Landlord in the land and buildings in which the Premises are located (whether such interest of Landlord is a fee title interest or a leasehold interest) is encumbered deed of trust, and such interest is acquired by a lender or any other third party through judicial foreclosure or by exercise of a power of (?) at private trustee's foreclosure sale, Tenant hereby agrees to attorn (?) the purchaser at any such foreclosure to sale and to recognize such purchaser as the Landlord under this lease, provided such attornment does not disturb Tenant's leasehold interest. 30. DEFAULT BY LANDLORD Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within a reasonable time, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligations is such that more than sixty (60) days are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. If Landlord is in default of this lease, and as a consequence Tenant recovers a money judgment against Landlord, the judgment shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received on execution of the judgment and levy against the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Project of which the Premises are a part, and out of rent or other income from such real property receivables by Landlord or out of the consideration received by Landlord from the sale or other disposition of all or any part of Landlord's right, title and interest in the Project of which the Premises are a part. Neither Landlord nor any of the partners comprising the partnership designated as Landlord shall be personally liable for any deficiency. 31. CONSTRUCTION CHANGES It is understood that the description of the Premises and the location of ductwork, plumbing and other facilities therein are subject to such minor changes as Landlord or Landlord's architect determines to be desirable in the course of construction of the Premises and/or the improvements constructed or being constructed hereon, and no such changes or any changes in plans for any other portions of the Project, shall affect this lease or entitle Tenant to any reduction of rent hereunder or result in any liability of Landlord to Tenant unless such changes materially interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises. 32. MEASUREMENT OF PREMISES Tenant understands and agrees that any reference to square footage of the Premises is approximate only and includes all interior partitions and columns, one-half of exterior walls, and one-half -25- of the partitions separating the Premises from the rest of the Project and any outside entry overhang, if applicable. Tenant waives any claim against Landlord regarding the accuracy of any such measurement and agrees that there shall not be any adjustment in monthly rent or Common Area Charges or other amounts payable hereunder by reason of inaccuracies in such measurement. 33. EXHIBITS AND ATTACHMENTS All exhibits and attachments to this lease are a part hereof. 34. ATTORNEYS FEES If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party all expenses of litigation, including, without limitation, travel expenses, attorney fees, expert witness fees, trial and appellate court costs, and deposition and transcript expenses. If either party becomes a party to any litigation concerning this lease, the Premises, or the Project by reason of any act or commission of the other party or its authorized representatives, the party that causes the other party to become involved in the litigation shall be liable to that party for all expenses of litigation, including, without limitation, travel expenses, attorney fees, expert witness fees, trial and appellate court costs, and deposition and transcript expenses. 35. SURRENDER The voluntary or other surrender of this lease or the Premises by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation of this lease, shall not (?) a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall either terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or operate as an assignment to Landlord or all or any such subleases or subtenancies. 36. WAIVER No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent or other payments shall not constitute a waiver of any other default and acceptance of partial payments shall not be construed as a waiver of the balance of such payment due. No act or conduct of Landlord, including, without limitation, the acceptance of keys to the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant before the expiration of the term. Only a written notice from Landlord to Tenant shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and accomplish a termination of this lease. Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring a Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waiver or tender unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Tenant. Any waiver by Landlord of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this lease. -26- 37. EASEMENTS; AIRSPACE RIGHTS Landlord reserves the right to alter the boundaries of the Project and grant easements and dedicate for public use portions of the Project without Tenant's consent, provided that no such grant or dedication shall interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises or otherwise cause Tenant to incur cost or expense. From time to time, and upon Landlord's demand, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord, or in accordance with Landlord's instructions, and any all documents, instruments, maps or plats necessary to effectuate Tenant's covenants hereunder. This lease confers no rights either with regard to the subsurface of the land on which the Premises are located or with regard to airspace above the ceiling of the Premises. Tenant agrees that no diminution or shutting off of light or view by a structure which is or may be erected (whether or not by Landlord) on property adjacent to the building of which the Premises area a part or to property adjacent thereto, shall in any way affect this lease, or entitle Tenant to any reduction of rent or result in any liability of Landlord to Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not have the right to materially block or obstruct the main entrance to the Premises. 38. RULES AND REGULATIONS Landlord shall have the right from time to time to promulgate reasonable rules and regulations for the safety, care and cleanliness of the Premises, the Project and the Common Area, or for the preservations of good order. On delivery of a copy of such rules and regulations to Tenant, Tenant shall comply with the rules and regulations and a violation of any of them shall constitute a default by Tenant under this lease. If there is a conflict between the rules and regulations and any of the provisions of this lease, the provisions of this lease shall prevail. Landlord shall make all reasonable efforts to enforce the rules and regulations uniformly against all tenants in the Project, and no such rules and regulations shall require Tenant to pay additional rent under this lease. Such rules and regulations may be amended by Landlord from time to time with or without advance notice. 39. NOTICES All notices, demands, requests, consents and other communications which may be given or are required to be given by either party to the other shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently made and delivered if personally served or if sent by United States first class mail, postage prepaid. All such communications from Landlord to Tenant shall be addressed to Tenant at the Premises. All such communications by Tenant to Landlord shall be sent to Landlord at its offices at 3945 Freedom Circle, Suite 1000, Santa Clara, California 95054. Either party may change its address by notifying the other of such change. Each such communication shall be deemed received on the date of the personal service or mailing thereof in the manner herein provided, as the case may be. -27- 40. NAME Tenant shall not use the name of the Project for any purpose other than as the address of the business conducted by Tenant in the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. 41. GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY This lease shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. If any provision of this lease shall be invalid, unenforceable or ineffective for any reason whatsoever, all other provisions hereof shall be and remain in full force and effect. 42. DEFINITIONS As used in this lease, the following words and phrases shall have the following meanings: AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE: any officer, agent, employee or independent contractor retained or employed by either party, acting within authority given him by that party. ENCUMBRANCE: any deed of trust, mortgage or other written security device or agreement affecting the Premises or the Project that constitutes security for the payment of a debt or performance of an obligation, and the note or obligation secured by such deed of trust, mortgage or other written security device or agreement. LENDER: the beneficiary, mortgagee or other holder of an encumbrance, as defined above. LIEN: a charge imposed on the Premises by someone other than Landlord, by which the Premises are made security for the performance of an act. Most of the liens referred to in this lease are mechanic's liens. MAINTENANCE: repairs, replacement, repainting and cleaning. PERSON: one or more human beings, or legal entities or other artificial persons, including, without limitation, partnerships, corporations, trusts, estates, associations and any combination of human being and legal entities. PROVISION: any term, agreement, covenant, condition, clause, qualification, restriction, reservation or other stipulation in the lease that defines or otherwise controls, establishes or limits the performance required or permitted by either party. RENT: monthly rent, additional rent, Common Area Charges, and all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord required by this lease or arising by subsequent actions of the parties made pursuant to this lease. -28- Words used in any gender include other genders. If there be more than (?) one Tenant, the obligations of Tenant hereunder are joint and several. All provisions whether covenants or conditions, on the part of Tenant shall be deemed to be both covenants and conditions. The paragraph headings are for convenience of reference only and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any provision hereof. 43. TIME Time is of the essence of this lease and of each and all of its provisions. 44. EXAMINATION OF LEASE Submission of this lease for examination or signature (?)by Tenant does not constitute a reservation or option for a lease, and this lease is not effective until its execution and delivery by both Landlord and Tenant. 45. INTEREST ON PAST DUE OBLIGATIONS; LATE CHARGE Any amount due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from when due until paid, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this lease. In addition, Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of monthly rent, or of Tenant's monthly Common Area Charge, or of any other amount due Landlord from Tenant, will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impractical to fix. Such costs include, without limitation, processing and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed on Landlord, e.g., by the terms of any encumbrance and note secured by any encumbrance covering the Premises. Therefore, if any such payment due from Tenant is not received by Landlord when due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of four percent (4%) of the overdue payment as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord. (?) notice to Tenant of failure to pay shall be required prior to the imposition of such interest and/or late charge, and any notice period provided for in paragraph 20 shall not affect the imposition of such interest and/or late charge. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees to forego the late charge and interest on past due obligations no more than twice each lease year, provided that Tenant pays the past-due obligation in full within (5) days following notice to Tenant of such past-due obligation. -29- 46. ENTIRE AGREEMENT This lease, including any exhibits and attachments, constitutes the entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant relative to the Premises and this lease and the exhibits and attachments may be altered, amended or revoked only an instrument in writing signed by both Landlord and Tenant. Landlord and Tenant agree hereby that all prior contemporaneous oral agreements between and among themselves or their agents or representatives relative to the leasing of the Premises are merged in or revoked by this lease. 47. CORPORATE AUTHORITY Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, prior to or at the execution of this lease, a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of Tenant authorizing the execution of this lease and naming officers that are authorized to execute this lease on behalf of Tenant, which copy shall be certified by Tenant's president or secretary as correct and in full force and effect. 48. RECORDING Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this lease or short form memorandum hereof without the consent of the other. 49. REAL ESTATE BROKERS Each Party represents that it has not had dealings with any real estate broker, finder or other person with respect to this lease in any manner, except Cornish & Carey. Each party shall hold harmless the other party from all damages resulting from any claims that may be asserted against the other party by any broker, finder or other person with whom the other party has or purportedly has dealt, and relating to this Lease (including but not limited to any extensions thereof). Landlord shall be solely responsible for paying the commission to Cornish & Carey. 50. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraphs (?) and 8, (i) as to any required capital improvement to the Premises having useful life of more than one year and which is not required by reason of Tenant's specific purposes or activities of the Premises, Landlord shall make such capital improvement and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent and in equal monthly installments over the remaining term of this lease, the fraction of the cost of such capital improvement equal to the remaining term of this Lease over the useful life of such capital improvement; (ii) as to any required capital improvement to the Common Area having a useful life of more than one year and which is not required by Tenant's specific purposes or activities of the Premises, the cost thereof shall be included within Common Area Charges proportionately over the useful life of such capital improvement: and (iii) the sum of Tenant's payments under subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above shall not exceed fifteen -30- percent (15%) of the monthly rent payable during the concurrent month. Any determination of useful life, as such term is used in this paragraph 50, shall be reasonably made by Landlord. 51. OPTION TO EXTEND TERM Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the option to extend the term under all the provisions contained in this lease, except for the monthly rent, for one five year period ("Extended Term") following the expiration of the initial term set forth in paragraph 2 ("Initial Term"). The monthly rent for the Extended Term shall be marked rent as determined below, to be increased at the rate of 6% to 8% (as determined below) over the previous year's monthly rent on each one year anniversary date during the Extended Term, provided that in no event shall the monthly rent at the commencement of the Extended Term be less than the monthly rent in effect at the expiration of the Initial Term. Tenant must give written notice to Landlord of its intention to exercise this option at least six (6) months before the expiration of the Initial Term. The parties shall have forty-five (45) days after Landlord receives the notice of exercise in which to negotiate and agree on the market rent (and the precise annual adjustment percentage within the range of 6% to 8%) for the Extended Term. If the parties are unable to agree on the market rent and such annual adjustment percentage within this forty-five (45) day negotiating period, the market rent and such annual adjustment percentage shall be determined in the following manner: (i) Landlord and Tenant shall each select a licensed real estate broker with not less than five years' experience in the business of commercial leasing of property of the same type and use as the Premises and in the same geographical vicinity, (ii) such two real estate brokers shall select a third similarly qualified broker, and the three brokers so selected shall determine the market rent, (iii) the decision of the majority of said brokers shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto, and (iv) the brokers shall base their determination of the market rent on the monthly rent (and the annual adjustment percentage) obtained for property of comparable location, type and use as the Premises with leases of comparable terms. Each party shall pay the expenses and charges of the broker appointed by it and the parties shall pay the expenses and charges of the third broker in equal shares. As soon as the market rent (and the annual adjustment percentage) is so determined, Landlord and Tenant shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating the new monthly rent (i.e., at market rent but not less than the monthly rent in effect at the expiration of the Initial Term) (?) and such annual adjustment percentage. Tenant shall not assign or otherwise transfer this option and any attempt to do so shall render this option null and void; provided that Tenant may assign this option to any corporation or other entity which acquires or is acquired by Circadian or which results from a merger or consolidation with Circadian or which either controls or is controlled by Circadian or which is controlled by any of the foregoing, if, in any such case, this Lease is concurrently so assigned. Further, if Tenant is in default at the time of its exercise of this option or at the last day of the Initial Term, then such exercise shall be ineffective and the lease shall expire at the end of the Initial Term. -31- 52. EXPANSION PROVISION During the term, Tenant may give Landlord notice of desire to lease additional or other space, such notice describing the size and location, and other pertinent information regarding the expansion needs of Tenant. If, thereafter, space meeting Tenant's needs becomes available in the Project (or in other Projects owned or managed by Landlord) then Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant of the availability of such space, and at the request of Tenant made within five (5) days of the date of such notice of availability enter into negotiations concerning the lease of such space. If a new lease is negotiated covering space larger than the space leased under this Lease, Landlord will agree, at the request of Tenant, to terminate the lease effective as of the date of such new lease. Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate the rent and other terms of any lease of any applicable expansion space in good faith at a rent level, and under other terms, substantially similar to that leased to other Tenants in the Project of which the expansion space is a part during the nine (9) month period prior to Landlord's notice to Tenant that such expansion space is available. If Tenant and Landlord do not successfully negotiate a lease within thirty (30) days of commencement of negotiations, Landlord shall not be obligated in any way to terminate Tenant's lease, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for leasing the applicable expansion space to a third party whether under the same or more favorable terms than that offered to the Tenant. This paragraph 52 shall be of no further force and effect in the event of a Sale by Landlord as provided in paragraph 28. The successor owner shall not be obligated to offer any additional space or terminate this lease in any manner. IN WITNESS WHERE, Landlord and Tenant have executed and delivered this lease on the date first above written. LANDLORD: TENANT: CALIFORNIA SECOND, LTD.

SHELL IMPROVEMENTS: Tenant acknowledges having reviewed the drawings listed in Exhibit C-1 and the improvements constructed or to be constructed in accordance therewith, and Tenant hereby approves the same as installed, subject only to such changes as may subsequently be agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Such improvements are hereafter called "Shell Improvements". 2. TENANT IMPROVEMENTS: As used herein, "Tenant Improvements" shall include those items and specifications set forth and described in Exhibits C-2 and C-3, attached hereto, exclusive of Shell Improvements. Landlord shall construct Tenant Improvements in accordance with Exhibits C-2 and C-3, attached hereto, and paragraph 3 below. Landlord and Tenant hereby approve the same. 3. TENANT IMPROVEMENT DESIGN SCHEDULE: The plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvements and any other improvements shall be completed in accordance with the following: (a) Tenant shall approve preliminary floor plan layouts ("Preliminary Floor Plans") to Landlord by June 30, 1987 showing walls, doors, and other Tenant Improvements as desired by Tenant. Landlord shall prepare final plans ("City Ready Plans") ready to submit to the City for a building permit. (b) Between June 30, 1987 and July 10, 1987, Landlord's representative and Tenant's representative shall meet as needed to review and complete the final details related to the Preliminary Floor Plans, so that the resulting July 17, 1987 City Ready Plans are subject only to minor changes. (c) Concurrently with the preparation of the basic plans referred to in (a) and (b) above, Landlord's contractor and subcontractors or independent designers shall prepare design specifications outlining in reasonable detail electrical, mechanical, and any other requirements not included on the City Ready Plans set forth above.

CHANGES BY AUTHORITY: Tenant agrees that if any change, deletion or addition to any of the improvements proposed to be constructed or installed is required by any governmental authority in connection with obtaining any governmental permit or approval, or otherwise, then such change, deletion or addition shall promptly be made at Tenant's expense. Failure to obtain any required governmental approval or permit for any Tenant Improvements desired by Tenant shall in no way be cause for Tenant to terminate this lease. 6. DELAYS CAUSED BY TENANT: If the commencement of the term is delayed due in any material respect to Tenant's failure to meet the schedule set forth in paragraph 4 above, or to construction delays because of any changes required by Tenant, or due to any other failures to Tenant to perform its obligations under this lease, then the basic rent and common area charges and any other payments specified in the lease as commencing upon the commencement date of this lease shall nonetheless commence in full as of the date by which Landlord's work would have been, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, completed but for such delays or failure to perform by Tenant. 7. PUNCH LIST: Within ten (10) business days after commencement of the term, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a list of items ("Punch List") that Tenant believes Landlord should complete or correct in order for the Premises to be acceptable.

If any portion of said Letter of Credit is so used as specified above, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, restore the Letter of Credit to its original amount, and Tenant's failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Amendment and the Lease. Landlord's resort to said Letter of Credit shall in no way or manner constitute an acceptance of or waiver of such default by Tenant; nor shall resort to said Letter of Credit terminate, or permit Tenant to terminate, or constitute a forfeiture of, or be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate, the Lease; nor shall such resort affect Landlord's remedies otherwise available under the Lease or at law.

Tenant's failure to make any payment of the Excess Cost when due, or to make any payment with respect to change orders as set forth in paragraph 6 of this Exhibit A, shall be deemed a default under the Lease and the amount so delinquent shall be deemed additional rent and Landlord may exercise all rights and remedies set forth in the Lease; and in addition, Landlord may delay construction until such payment is made and such delay shall be deemed a Tenant caused delay subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 of this Exhibit A. (d) In the event Tenant causes delays, or requests changes which cause delays in construction of more than ninety (90) calendar days, then Landlord shall not be obligated to grant to Tenant the Allowance, or any balance remaining unused therein. In such case, Tenant shall be responsible for all additional costs resulting therefrom, including any increase in labor and materials costs. Tenant shall be entitled to no rent reduction or credit at any time in the event that the Allowance or any portion thereof remains unused for any reason whatsoever. 6. CHANGES BY TENANT: Tenant may request changes, deletions or additions to the Tenant Improvements; provided, however, that the effectiveness of any such requested change, deletion or addition shall be subject to written approval by an authorized representative of Landlord and to obtaining any required governmental permits or other approvals. If any such change, deletion or addition increases the Tenant Improvement Fixed Cost above the Allowance, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord the full amount of such increase in excess of the Allowance. n no event shall work on any change, deletion or addition requested pursuant to this paragraph 6 commence prior to (i) Landlord and Tenant approving, in writing, such change, deletion or addition, and (ii) Landlord's receipt from Tenant of payment of the full amount of the increase of the Tenant Improvement Fixed Cost in excess of the Allowance. 7. CHANGES BY AUTHORITY: Tenant agrees that if any change, deletion or addition to any of the improvements proposed to be constructed or installed is required by any governmental authority in connection with obtaining any governmental permit or approval, or otherwise, then such change, deletion or addition shall promptly be made and the Tenant Improvement Fixed Cost shall be adjusted to reflect any increase in cost resulting from such required change.

The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with all laws. 8. DELAYS CAUSED BY TENANT: Any delays due to construction delays related to any changes required by Tenant, or due to any other failures by Tenant to perform its obligations under this Exhibit A or otherwise under the Lease or the Amendment, shall be deemed Tenant caused delays for purposes of this Agreement. 9. PUNCH LIST: Within ten (10) business days after the Effective Date, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a list of items ("Punch List") that Tenant believes Landlord should complete or correct in order for the Premises to be acceptable. Landlord shall commence to complete or correct the items as soon as possible, except those items that Landlord in its reasonable discretion contends are not justified. If Tenant does not deliver the Punch List to Landlord within the ten (10) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Premises and approved the construction (provided that such acceptance shall not be deemed a waiver with respect to structural defects, non-compliance with laws or other items not reasonably ascertainable on walkthrough inspection). Nothing in this paragraph 9 shall delay the Effective Date or Tenant's obligation to pay rent or to make other payments due Landlord under the Lease or the Amendment. 10. ACCESS TO PREMISES: Tenant shall permit Landlord and Landlord's contractor access to the Premises during normal business hours for construction of the Tenant Improvements. Tenant acknowledges that some disruption of its business operations is inevitable and that such disruption shall not be a basis for denying Landlord's contractor access to the Premises or otherwise interfering with construction of the Tenant Improvements. Landlord and its contractors shall use reasonable efforts to minimize disruption to Tenant's business. In the event Tenant elects to have construction of the Tenant Improvements, or any portion thereof, performed at times other than during normal business hours, Landlord shall provide Tenant with an estimate of overtime charges before commencement of such work.
