THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
1. Premises
(a) The "Premises" shall consist of the area described in paragraph 1 of
the Lease Preamble, subject to the change in configuration described
therein.
(b) The "Common Areas" of the Building shall be those parts of the
Building and other improvements within and outside the Building
designated by Landlord from time to time for the common use of all
tenants, tenants' employees, customers and invitees, and includes
among other facilities, corridors, lobbies, plazas, elevators
(excluding the service elevator connecting the lower level parking
area, first and fourth floors), delivery passages, drinking fountains,
public toilets and washrooms, and parking garage, service buildings,
loading areas, mechanical, electrical and telephone rooms, utilities
and related facilities, sprinkler, fire detection and fire prevention,
security equipment, duct shafts, storage areas and service areas and
similar improvements operated, owned or maintained, in whole or in
part, by Landlord, and located within or serving the Building and all
parkways, drives, green-spaces, parks, fountains or other facilities
owned, operated or maintained, in whole or in part, by Landlord, and
located within or serving the Building or otherwise made available by
Landlord for use by all tenants of the Building, all of which
facilities shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable management and
control and shall be operated and maintained for the benefit of all
tenants in a first class manner. Tenant and its employees and invitees
shall have the nonexclusive right to use the Common Areas, such use to
be in common with Landlord, other tenants of the Building and other
persons entitled to use the same.
2. Term. The Term of this Lease shall commence on the Commencement Date and
expire on the Expiration Date, unless otherwise extended by one, or both,
of Tenant's Option(s) to Renew.
3. The Base Rent
(a) Tenant shall pay Base Rent for the Premises in the amounts shown in
paragraph 7 of the Lease Preamble. All installments of Base Rent are
payable as described in paragraph 7 of the Lease Preamble in advance
on the first day of each calendar month during the Term as described
in paragraph 7 of the Lease Preamble, together with any monthly
installments of estimated Tax Rent, Operating Expense Rent, and
Capital Expense Rent (collectively "Total Monthly Rent"). If the
Commencement Date is not the first day of the calendar month, or the
Expiration Date is not the last day of the calendar month, the Total
Monthly Rent shall be prorated based on a thirty (30) day month.
7 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
(b) All amounts due or relating to Tenant's occupancy under this Lease,
other than Total Monthly Rent, are due and payable within forty-five
(45) days of receipt of Landlord's invoice for same. Such amounts
include without limitation: annual reconciliations and retroactive
charges of Tax Rent, Operating Expense Rent or Capital Expense Rent;
orders for extra work; charges for extra utilities and services; and
Late Charges (collectively "Additional Rent"). All amounts due under
this Lease or relating to Tenant's occupancy, including without
limitation, the Base Rent, the Total Monthly Rent, and Additional Rent
(collectively, "Rent") are deemed to be rent, receivable as such, and
subject to all remedies of Landlord for nonpayment of rent. Tenant's
obligation to pay all amounts owing under this Lease shall survive
Tenant's relinquishment of possession to Landlord, or the expiration
or early termination of this Lease.
(c) If all or any portion of any installment of Total Monthly Rent is not
received when due, or if all or any portion of any item of Additional
Rent is not received by Landlord pursuant to Section 3 (b), the Tenant
shall pay to Landlord a "Late Charge" of five (5%) percent of the
overdue amount. Landlord and Tenant agree that the Late Charge
represents a fair and reasonable estimate of costs that Landlord will
incur due to Tenant's late payment. Landlord's acceptance of a Late
Charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect
to the overdue amount, or prevent Landlord from exercising any other
rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or pursuant
to law.
(d) All amounts due Landlord shall be paid by Tenant, without deduction or
offset (except as set forth herein), in lawful money of the United
States of America. Payments shall be made at the office of Landlord or
to such other person or at such other place as Landlord notifies
Tenant. Landlord reserves the right to require that payments be made
by certified check or cash.
4. Tax Rent
(a) "Property Taxes" are defined as: all costs and expenses which Landlord
has incurred or will incur for real and personal property taxes, or
any other assessments upon Landlord's legal or equitable interest in
the Land, Building, Common Areas and all or any related facilities and
improvements (including, without limitation, leasehold taxes or other
taxes or assessments levied in lieu of or in addition to), whether
imposed by a government authority or agency, or by a special
assessment district; any taxes resulting from a reassessment of the
Building occasioned by any cause whatsoever, including, without
limitation, any reassessment resulting from a conveyance of Landlord's
interest in the Land, Building, or Common Areas (whether or not such
transfer occurs before or after the Commencement Date), or by the
determination of a court of competent jurisdiction that any law,
regulation, statute, or constitutional provision purporting to limit
tax increases is invalid in whole or in part; any non-progressive tax
on or measured with respect to gross receipts from the rental of space
in the Building; any user fees or charges assessed for any government
services which were provided without cost prior to the imposition of
Proposition 13; any assessment, tax, fee, charge, or levy for any
transportation plan, fund, or system within the general geographic
area of the Building; and, any reasonable expenses of Landlord in
contesting any of the foregoing or the assessed valuation of the Land,
Building, or Common Areas. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
definition of "Property Taxes" excludes any net income, franchise,
capital stock, estate, or inheritance taxes. If an assessment is
payable in installments, Property Taxes for the year shall include the
amount of the installment due and payable during that year. For all
other real estate taxes, Property Taxes for that year shall include
the amount due and payable for that year. If a change in Property
Taxes is obtained for any year of the Term, then Property Taxes for
that year will be retroactively adjusted and Landlord shall provide
Tenant with a credit, if any, based on the adjustment. In no event
shall Landlord collect any amounts with respect to Property Taxes
which would, when taken together with those amounts collected by
Landlord from other tenants in the Building (and in the event the
Building is less than 100% occupied, paid directly by Landlord),
exceed 95% of the actual Property Taxes for any calendar year.
Property Taxes shall not include (i) any
8 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
late charges assessed due to Landlord's failure to timely pay taxes,
(ii) taxes on or relating to inheritance, estate, succession,
transfer, gift, franchise, net profits or income tax imposed by
Landlord or agents of Landlord and (iii) any proprietary tax credits
which inure by statute to the benefit of any tenant without benefit to
Landlord. In addition, with respect to any assessments included within
the term Property Taxes, where such assessments are or may by election
be payable in installments over more than one calendar year, such
assessments shall be allocated over the maximum period available under
such election, irrespective of whether or over what period Landlord
may in fact elect to pay such installments.
(b) For each successive June 1-May 31 period during the Term after the
Base Year ("Comparison Year"), Tenant shall pay to Landlord "Tax
Rent," which shall be the Proportional Share of the amount, if any,
which the aggregate annual Property Taxes for the Comparison Year
exceeds the Property Taxes for the Base Year. Tax Rent is payable in
the manner set forth in Section 3.(a). If this Lease terminates on a
day other than the last day of the Comparison Year, Tax Rent for the
Comparison Year shall be prorated on a thirty (30) day month basis.
(c) As soon as practical after the beginning of each Comparison Year (but
in no event later than 120 days after the close of the applicable
Comparison Year), Landlord shall provide Tenant with an estimate of
Property Taxes and Tax Rent for the Comparison Year. If the estimated
Tax Rent for the Comparison Year is not determined until after the
beginning of the Comparison Year, then Tenant shall continue to pay
the monthly installments for the prior Comparison Year, if any, and
shall retroactively pay any underpayment of estimated Tax Rent payable
for the period from the beginning of the Comparison Year until the
estimate was provided. As soon as practical after the end of each
Comparison Year (but in no event later than 120 days after the close
of the applicable Comparison Year), Landlord shall determine the
Property Taxes incurred in the Comparison Year. If Tenant has
underpaid its Tax Rent for the Comparison Year, then Tenant shall pay
to Landlord the full amount of such deficiency as Additional Rent. If
Tenant has overpaid its Tax Rent for the Comparison Year, the Landlord
shall either credit the overpayment toward Tenant's next
installment(s) of Total Monthly Rent or, if this Lease has terminated
and Tenant is not in monetary or financial default, refund the
overpayment to Tenant within thirty (30) days of determination.
(d) If the value of the improvements in the Premises (regardless of
whether such improvements were installed or paid for by Landlord or
Tenant, or have been affixed to the real property to become a part
thereof) exceed the value of improvements generally prevailing in
other leased premises in the Building, then Tenant shall pay to
Landlord as Additional Rent all Property Taxes levied on such excess
value. If the records of the County Assessor are available and
sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining such excess
value, then such records shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant;
otherwise, the actual cost of construction shall be determinative.
(e) Tenant shall directly pay the taxing authority any tax levied against
the personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant in or about the
Premises. If Tenant fails to pay such tax before delinquency, then
Landlord may pay such tax on behalf of Tenant (after providing Tenant
with advance written notice and ten (10) days to cure), and the amount
paid shall constitute Additional Rent due Landlord.
(f) The calculation and payment of Tax Rent is separate, distinct, and
shall not be affected by the calculation and payment of either Basic
Monthly Rent, Operating Expense Rent, or Capital Expense Rent. Any
item of cost or expense included as Property Taxes shall not be
included as either Operating Expenses or Capital Expenses.
5. Operating Expense Rent
9 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
(a) "Operating Expenses" include, without limitation, costs and expenses
for: all wages, salaries, benefits, payroll taxes, other similar
government charges and other direct costs of personnel rendering

of maintaining a Building management office, with rent imputed at
Landlord's scheduled rate for the building containing the office.
Operating Expenses excludes those items described on Exhibit E
attached hereto.
(b) "Operating Expenses" are calculated as if the Building were
ninety-five percent (95%) occupied and all services were provided to
the entire Building.
(c) For each Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord "Operating
Expense Rent," which shall be Tenant's Proportional Share of the
amount, if any, by which the aggregate annual Operating Expenses for
the Comparison Year exceed the Operating Expenses for the Base Year.
Operating Expense Rent is payable in the manner set forth in Section
3.(a). If this Lease terminates on a day other than the last day of
the Comparison Year, then Operating Expense Rent for the Comparison
Year shall be prorated on a thirty (30) day month basis.
(d) As soon as practical after the beginning of each Comparison Year (but
in no event later than 120 days after the close of the applicable
Comparison Year), Landlord shall provide Tenant with Landlord's
estimate of Operating Expenses and Operating Expense Rent for the
Comparison Year. During the Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay
Landlord's estimated Operating Expense Rent in equal monthly
installments on or before the first day of each month. If the
estimated Operating Expense Rent for the Comparison Year is not
determined until after the beginning of the Comparison Year, then
Tenant shall continue to pay the monthly installments for the prior
Comparison Year, if any, and shall retroactively pay any underpayment
of estimated Operating Expense Rent payable for the period from the
beginning of the Comparison Year until the estimate was provided. As
soon as practical after the end of each Comparison Year (but in no
event later than 120 days after the close of the applicable Comparison
Year), Landlord shall determine the Operating Expenses incurred in the
Comparison Year. If Tenant has underpaid its Operating Expense Rent
for the Comparison Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the full
amount of such deficiency as Additional Rent. If Tenant has overpaid
its Operating Expense Rent for the Comparison Year, then Landlord
shall either credit the overpayment toward Tenant's next
installment(s) of Total Monthly Rent or, if this Lease has terminated
and Tenant is not in default, refund the overpayment to Tenant within
thirty (30) days of determination.
(e) The calculation and payment of Operating Expense Rent is separate,
distinct, and shall not be affected by the calculation and payment of
either Basic Monthly Rent, Tax Rent, or Capital Expense Rent. Any item
of cost or expense included as Operating Expenses shall not be
included as either Property Taxes or Capital Expenses.
6. Capital Expense Rent
(a) "Capital Expenses" are defined as all costs and expenses which
Landlord has incurred or will incur (without offset for any revenue
derived from any source whatsoever) in the making or
10 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
installation of capital improvements, modifications, or additions to
the Land, Building, Common Areas, and/or the machinery, equipment, and
facilities related thereto, either:
(i) Required by directive of a government, quasi-government, or
regulatory agency or authority pursuant to either a law or
statute newly enacted after the Commencement Date, or a
regulatory interpretation of a law or statute existing as of the
Commencement Date, which regulatory interpretation is newly
promulgated after the Commencement Date and is materially
different than the existing regulatory interpretation;
(ii) Made with the intent of reducing Operating Expenses (but only to
the extent such capital improvement actually reduces Operating
Expenses); or
(iii) Deemed reasonably necessary by Landlord to maintain the quality,
integrity and/or Class "A" character of the Land, Building,
Common Areas and/or the machinery, equipment and facilities
related thereto.
Capital Expenses excludes those items described on Exhibit E attached
hereto.
(b) During the Term, Tenant shall pay Landlord "Capital Expense Rent,"
which shall be the Proportional Share (or any other proportion, in
Landlord's reasonable discretion, which equitably distributes either
Capital Expenses or Capital Expense Rent among tenants) of any Capital
Expenses amortized over such reasonable period as Landlord shall
reasonably determine with a return on capital at the current market
rate per annum on the un-amortized balance or at such higher rate as
may have been paid by the Landlord. Capital Expense Rent is payable in
the manner set forth in Section 3.(a). If this Lease commences or
terminates on a day other than the first or last day of a calendar
year, Capital Expense Rent for the year shall be prorated on a thirty
(30) day month basis.
(c) As soon as practical after the beginning of each Comparison Year (but
in no event later than 120 days after the beginning of each Comparison
Year), Landlord shall provide Tenant with Landlord's estimate of the
Capital Expenses and Capital Expense Rent for the Comparison Year.
During the Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay Landlord's estimated
Capital Expense Rent in equal monthly installments on or before the
first day of each month. If the estimated Capital Expense Rent for the
Comparison Year is not determined until after the beginning of the
Comparison Year, then Tenant shall continue to pay the monthly
installments for the prior Comparison Year, if any, and shall
retroactively pay any underpayment of estimated Capital Expense Rent
payable for the period from the beginning of the Comparison Year until
the estimate was provided. As soon as practical after the end of each
Comparison Year (but in no event later than 120 days after the
beginning of each Comparison Year), Landlord shall determine the
Capital Expenses incurred, allocated, or amortized in the calendar
year. If Tenant has underpaid its Capital Expense Rent for the
Comparison Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the full amount of
such deficiency as Additional Rent. If Tenant has overpaid its Capital
Expense Rent for the Comparison Year, then Landlord shall either
credit the overpayment toward Tenant's next installment(s) of Total
Monthly Rent or, if this Lease has terminated and Tenant is not in
monetary or financial default, refund the overpayment to Tenant within
thirty (30) days of determination.
(d) The calculation and payment of Capital Expense Rent is separate,
distinct, and shall not be affected by the calculation and payment of
either Basic Monthly Rent, Tax Rent, or Operating Expense Rent. Any
item of cost or expense included as Capital Expenses shall not be
included as either Property Taxes or Operating Expenses.
7. Use

(a) Tenant agrees that the Permitted Use is a material provision of this
Lease. Tenant may use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use and
shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose

to a change of use by Tenant shall not be deemed a waiver of
Landlord's right to withhold its consent to any subsequent proposed
change of use.
(b) Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, comply with all
certificates, rules, directives, orders, and regulations of any public
authority (including Federal, State, County, and Municipal

demand. If Tenant does not discontinue such violation, such violation
shall constitute a default under this Lease (after the expiration of
the applicable cure period). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Tenant

Building or the Premises as a result of such laws except to the extent
required by Section 6 or to the extent that capital improvements to
the Premises are required due to Tenant's particular use or occupancy
of the Premises.
(c) Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done which will
invalidate or materially increase the cost of any insurance policy
covering the Land, Building, Common Areas, or equipment, property, and
facilities therein (provided Tenant has received written notice of
such insurance policy requirements). Tenant shall comply with all
rules, orders, regulations, and requirements of any insurance fire
rating bureau or any other organization performing a similar function.
Tenant shall, upon Landlord's demand, reimburse Landlord for any
additional insurance premiums which may be incurred due to Tenant's
failure to comply with this Lease.
(d) Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done which will
constitute a nuisance, or obstruct, injure, or interfere with the

in whole or in part.

Premises nor cause the same to be encumbered or obstructed, nor
encumber or obstruct any access ways to the Premises, nor cause same
to be encumbered or obstructed, except that same may be temporarily
obstructed on move-in and move-out, provided that the same is
coordinated with the Building Manager.
(h) Landlord agrees to comply with and to cause the Building and the
Building's common areas to be in compliance at all times with all
laws, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities
Act, and all regulations or amendments promulgated thereunder, in
connection with Landlord's responsibility for repair and maintenance
of the Building, the operation, repair, maintenance, and accessibility
of the Building, and as applicable to Landlord's obligations under any
other relevant provisions of this Lease.

Tenant's datacomm room.
(b) Landlord shall provide Tenant with the following services during

(iii) Janitorial and lobby attendant services to the extent and during
such times (but not less than five (5) days per week, excluding
holidays) as are determined by Landlord, but in no event at a
level of service less than those janitorial and lobby attendant
services.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.(a.), Landlord may:
restrict access to the Premises while making any repairs, alterations,
or improvements to the Premises (to the extent such repairs,
alterations or improvements are permitted or required to be made by
Landlord under this Lease), Common Areas, or Building; make reasonable
nondiscriminatory changes to the access, utilities, and services
Landlord is obligated to provide hereunder; make such changes in the
access, utilities, and services Landlord is obligated to provide
hereunder as may be reasonable and necessary to comply with any
government restriction, requirement, or standard relating thereto; or
prevent access, or curtail utilities or services to the Land,
Building, Common Areas, or Premises during any invasion, mob action,
riot, public excitement, or other circumstances rendering such action
advisable, in Landlord's reasonable opinion. Any such actions taken by
Landlord under this Section 8.(c), are conditioned upon (i) Landlord
providing Tenant with reasonable advance notice, and (ii) Landlord
using best efforts to not interfere with Tenant's use or occupancy of
the Premises and access thereto.
(d) If Tenant either:
(i) Requires or uses more utilities or services than Landlord has
agreed to furnish as described above;
(ii) Requires utilities or services that are not generally provided
to the Building during non-Operating Hours; or
(iii) Has special water, electric, cooling, or ventilation needs due
to concentration of personnel, or the use of office equipment,
devices, or machines which consume power or generate heat in
excess of a personal computer or electric office typewriter
(which may include, without limitation, communications

13 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
computers, or photocopiers);
then Landlord shall make available such utilities or services and
Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, the charge for such use, as
reasonably determined by Landlord. Landlord may further require
Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to install separate
circuitry or meters to accommodate and/or measure Tenant's demand if
Landlord substantiates such excessive usage of electrical power
exceeding 4 watts per rentable square feet over a random 7 continuous
calendar days (non-holiday). Such tests would be conducted by a
qualified professional electrical engineer or, by an engineering
testing service with such results validated by a qualified
professional electrical engineer. Such tests would be the Landlord's
sole cost if such results do not demonstrate excessive electrical
usage as defined above or, at Tenant's sole cost if Tenant challenges
Landlord's right to conduct such survey and such results do
demonstrate excessive electrical usage as defined above.
Without limiting anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord
shall also provide the following services:
(iv) Window washing of the inside and outside windows in the
Building's perimeter walls at intervals to be determined by
Landlord, but not less than four (4) times per year; and
(v) Freight elevator services at all times for normal office
deliveries subject to scheduling by Landlord (but no advance
scheduling shall be required for scheduling such service during
Operating Hours). Tenant shall be billed for all freight elevator
maintenance services at Landlord's actual cost. Freight elevators
and loading docks shall be manned, open and accessible at all
times. For purposes of this Section 8.(d)(v), the freight
elevators do not include the service elevator connecting the
First and Third floors of the Premises used exclusively by
Tenant.
(e) Landlord reserves the right, without liability to Tenant and without
constituting any claim of constructive eviction, to stop or interrupt
any heating, lighting, ventilating, air conditioning, gas, steam,
power, electricity, water or other service and to stop or interrupt
the use of any Building facilities at such times to the extent
necessary and for as long as may reasonably be required by reason of
accidents, strikes, or the making of repairs, alterations or
improvements or inability to secure a proper supply of fuel, gas,
steam, water, electricity, labor or supplies, or by reason of another
cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. Landlord agrees that
all necessary repairs shall be made as expeditiously as possible and
that Landlord shall use all reasonable efforts to schedule same so as
to minimize any interruption of service or use, as the case may be, to
Tenant. However, if such events, as described above, occur (regardless
if such events were in Landlord's control), such stoppage or
interruption, shall entitle Tenant to an abatement of Rent or other
compensation, but limited only to the affected area(s) of the Premises
where such stoppage or interruption prohibits Tenant from occupying
those rentable square foot portions of the Premises, over the time
such areas remain affected. In addition, if such stoppage or
interruption continues for a period of forty-five (45) consecutive
days or for more than sixty (60) days in the aggregate in any twelve
(12) month period, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this
Lease by giving written notice thereof to Landlord; such termination
to be effective as of the date set forth in said notice.
(f) Landlord will, at the request of Tenant, maintain a listing on the
directory located in the Building lobby of the name of Tenant.
Landlord shall not be required to list the names of any individuals on
said Building directory.
(g) In the event Tenant is not satisfied with Landlord's janitorial
services, Tenant shall have the right to (i) cancel such service as
to the Premises, and (ii) retain, at Tenant's sole cost and expense,
a janitorial service company to perform janitorial services to the
Premises. In such
14 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
event, the pro-rated costs of janitor service shall not be
included in the determination of Operating Expenses.
9. Parking
(a) Tenant shall have a revocable license to park, in common with other
tenants, up to Tenant's Parking Allotment of automobiles in the
parking facility of the Building, as stated in paragraph 14 of the
Lease Preamble, subject to Exhibit E and the following:
(i) Tenant shall pay Landlord the parking rates as stated in
paragraph 14 of the Lease Preamble at such time and in such
manner as Landlord may, from time to time, establish for tenants
of the Building;
(ii) Tenant shall not be in default of this Lease (after the
expiration of all notice and cure periods);
(iii) Tenant shall abide by any reasonable rules and regulations for
use of the parking facilities that Landlord establishes from
time to time, and shall use the parking facility in a safe and
lawful manner;
(iv) Tenant and Tenant's employees, contractors, and invitees may be
required to use attended or tandem parking;
(v) No bailment shall be created hereunder or by any use of the
parking facility; and
(vi) Tenant hereby releases Landlord and Landlord's agents, servants,
employees, and independent contractors from all claims for loss
or damage (including, without limitation, vandalism, and theft)
arising out of or related to use of the parking facility (except
to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of
Landlord or Landlord's agents, servants, employees or
independent contractors).
If Tenant violates any of these terms and Tenant fails to correct such
violations within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice,
Landlord may revoke the license to the extent that Landlord deems
reasonable and necessary, without liability to Tenant. Tenant's
license shall terminate concurrently with the termination of this
Lease.
10. Repairs
(a) Except as provided in Section 10.(b), Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole
cost and expense, keep the Premises in good condition and repair. In
particular, above Building standard improvements which are fully
contained in the Premises or exist outside the Premises, but were
installed or are maintained to exclusively serve the Premises
(including, without limitation: the service elevator dedicated to
Tenant and the Demised Premises which connects the lower level parking
area, the first and fourth floors, interior glass panels and
partitions; executive lavatories, showers, toilets and basins; kitchen
facilities; package unit heating, ventilation and air conditioning
systems; and each of the foregoing improvements' respective
mechanical, plumbing and electrical connections to the base Building
systems). Tenant shall use Landlord or Landlord's approved
subcontractors for all work related to the mechanical, plumbing,
heating, ventilation, air conditioning, electrical, lighting, energy
management, and fire/life safety systems; and, such work may be
performed in an emergency (defined in Section 12.(b)) without prior
demand upon Tenant with the contractor's charge for same payable by
Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant shall not be responsible for making capital expenditures in
connection with such repairs unless (i) required by Section 6, (ii)
such repairs relate to
15 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
improvements installed by or on behalf of Tenant, or (iii) are
necessitated by Tenant's acts or omissions.
(b) Landlord shall, at Landlord's cost and expense (except to the extent
such costs constitute Operating Expenses or Capital Expenses), repair
and maintain the Common Areas, structural portions and the roof of the
Building (including the parking garage), and all basic mechanical,
electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning
systems providing service to all tenants in the Building. Payment of
such expenses by Tenant to Landlord shall be subject to Sections 5 and
6 of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such
maintenance or repair is caused in part or in whole by the negligence
or willful misconduct of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees,
licensees, or invitees, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord as
Additional Rent all charges for such maintenance and repairs. Tenant
shall take all necessary action to prevent any additional or future
damage which Landlord believes may be caused by Tenant, its agents,
servants, employees, licensees, or invitees (whether as an isolated
incident or as a continuous course of conduct, or whether individually
or as a group), and Tenant's failure to take such action shall be a
material breach of this Lease (after the expiration of applicable
notice and cure periods).
(c) Provided Landlord uses reasonable efforts to minimize interference
with Tenant's use of the Premises, Landlord reserves the right to:
(i) Install, repair, maintain, relocate, or replace plumbing,
electrical, HVAC, and other mechanical systems above the
ceiling, below the floor, within the walls and central core;
(ii) Temporarily close the Common Areas or Building for maintenance,
repair, improvement, or alteration of the Building or Common
Areas, or make changes to the Common Areas, including, without
limitation, changes affecting ingress, egress, traffic flow,
landscaping, and parking facilities; and
(iii) Perform such other acts or make such other changes to the
Building and Common Areas that Landlord may deem appropriate.
(d) Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any failure by Landlord to
perform the repairs and maintenance required of Landlord hereunder,
unless such failure persists for an unreasonable time after the
earlier of (i) Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of the specific
need for such repairs or maintenance or (ii) Landlord otherwise
becomes aware of such repair or maintenance. There shall be no
abatement of Rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of any injury
to, or interference with, Tenant's business arising from the making of
any repairs, alterations, or improvements in or to any portion of the
Building, Common Areas, or Premises. Tenant waives any right to make
repairs at Landlord's expense pursuant to California Civil Code
section 1942 or any similar law, statute, or ordinance.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in
the event Landlord fails to make such repairs (regardless if such
failure is beyond the reasonable control of Landlord) and such failure
renders the Premises or any material portion thereof untenantable or
unsuitable for the conduct of Tenant's business for a period of more
than three (3) consecutive business days, then all monetary
obligations under this Lease shall abate from and after such three (3)
day period until the Premises is again rendered tenantable and
suitable for the conduct of Tenant's business therefrom. In addition,
in the event Landlord fails to make such repairs and such failure
renders the Premises or any material portion thereof untenantable or
unsuitable for the conduct of Tenant's business for a period of
forty-five (45) consecutive days or more, or for more than forty-five
(45) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period, then
Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written
notice thereof to Landlord at any time until the Premises is again
rendered tenantable and suitable for the conduct of Tenant's business
therein; such termination to be effective as of
16 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
the date set forth in said notice.
11. Condition of Premises
(a) Tenant accepts the Premises as being in good order, condition, and
repair. Except as may be expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant
acknowledges that neither Landlord, nor any employee, agent, or
contractor of Landlord has made any representation or warranty
concerning the Land, Building, Common Areas, or Premises, or the
suitability of same for the conduct of Tenant's business.
(b) Upon the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall relinquish possession of the Premises to Landlord in the
same condition as received, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire
or other casualty (as described in Section 16) excepted, free of all
trash and rubbish, and in broom clean condition. Tenant shall have no
obligation to remove any leasehold improvements made to the Premises
by or on behalf of Tenant. If Tenant fails to remove its personal
property upon expiration of the Term and Landlord has provided Tenant
with notice and ten (10) business days to cure such failure, Landlord
may dispose of any personal property remaining in the Premises in
accordance with California Civil Code section 1980, et seq., and shall
be entitled to recover all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in
such disposal, including Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs.
12. Inspection and Entry by Landlord
(a) Tenant agrees to permit Landlord and Landlord's agents, employees or
other representatives, upon reasonable telephonic notice and without
unreasonable interference with the normal conduct of Tenant's
business, (i) to show the Premises to any lessor under any underlying
lease or ground lease or any mortgagee or any persons wishing to
purchase the same, and (ii) Tenant agrees that on and after the ninth
month next preceding the expiration of the Term hereof, Landlord or
Landlord's agents, employees or other representatives shall have the
right to show the Premises to prospective tenants and to post exterior
ground level signs indicating the availability of the Premises for
lease.
(b) Tenant agrees that Landlord and Landlord's agents, employees or other
representatives, shall have the right to enter into and upon the
Premises or any part thereof, at all reasonable hours upon reasonable
telephonic notice and without unreasonable interference to the normal
course of Tenant's business (except in the event of an emergency, in
which event Landlord, its agents, employees or other representatives
may enter regardless of the hour and without notice), for the purpose
of examining the same or reading meters, or performing maintenance or
making such repairs or alterations therein as may be necessary for the
safety and preservation thereof. This clause shall not be deemed to be
a covenant by Landlord nor be construed to create an obligation on the
part of Landlord to make such inspection or repairs.
(c) Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all of the
doors in and to the Premises, excepting Tenant's vaults and safes. If
Tenant changes locks on any doors without Landlord's prior written
consent, Landlord shall have the right, after providing Tenant with
written notice and twenty-four (24) hours to provide Landlord with
keys to such doors, to enter the Premises, remove, change, and/or
replace such locks, repair any damage, and restore the Premises, and
charge Tenant all expenses incurred in accomplishing the foregoing as
Additional Rent.
(d) There shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability of Landlord by
reason of any injury to, or interference with Tenant's business
arising from any entry performed by Landlord in a good
17 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
faith attempt to comply with the terms of this Section. Any such good
faith entry shall not constitute an eviction, or a forcible or
unlawful entry, or detainer of the Premises.
13. Alterations
(a) All alterations, installations, decorations, or additions or other
improvements ("Alterations"), which shall be made by, or on behalf of
Tenant in, or to the Premises shall require Landlord's prior written
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant may make Alterations without Landlord's consent so
long as such Alterations are consistent with the quality, integrity
and/or character of the Building and do not cost Tenant more than
$50,000.00. In any case, Tenant shall give Landlord prior written
notice of not less than ten (10) business days of any proposed
Alterations with copies of proposed plans. All such Alterations shall
be done at Tenant's sole expense and must be administered by Tenant's
construction manager or, if requested by Tenant, the Building's
designated project manager at a not-to-exceed 2.5% of total project
costs (including design, permits, and fees). Landlord's consent shall
not affect Tenant's liability therefor and Tenant agrees to indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Landlord from any and all costs, expenses,
claims, causes of action, damages, and liabilities of any type or
nature whatsoever (including but not limited to attorneys' fees and
costs of litigation) arising out of or relating to the making of
Alterations by Tenant.
Landlord may impose any reasonable condition upon issuing Landlord's
consent (including, without limitation; obtaining the consent of any
mortgagee, encumbrancer, lender, or ground lessee; providing Landlord
with working drawings, specifications, and estimated costs; providing
Landlord with verification of all required permits or approvals; and,
obtaining a waiver of lien.)
(b) Tenant shall use Landlord's designated contractors for all Alterations
affecting basic Building mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating,
ventilation, and air conditioning systems (provided such contractors
offer competitive rates for such work); and, shall otherwise use
licensed, qualified contractors and subcontractors which shall carry
course of construction, products liability, completed operations,
worker's compensation, and public liability insurance in amounts
satisfactory to Landlord, naming Landlord as an additional insured.
Alterations shall be performed at the times and in the manner
reasonably specified by Landlord, and shall not interfere with access
or use of the Common Areas or other premises. Tenant shall supply
as-built drawings to Landlord upon completion of the Alterations.
(c) All permanent improvements to the Premises and Leasehold Improvements
(including, without limitation, floor and wall coverings, blinds,
drapes, built-in millwork, shelving, doors, locks, paneling and the
like, shall become the property of Landlord upon the termination of
this Lease and shall be relinquished with the Premises.
(d) The terms of Exhibit D shall apply to alterations to the Premises
controlled by Tenant.
14. Liens
Tenant shall keep the Land, Building, and Premises free from any liens
resulting from work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred
by, or on behalf of, Tenant. Tenant shall promptly discharge any such lien
by bond or otherwise. If Tenant fails to discharge or bond over any such
lien within thirty (30) days after Landlord's written demand, then Landlord
may discharge the lien (provided that such discharge shall not interfere
with Tenant's relationship with the lienholder/contractor) and charge
Tenant as Additional Rent all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by
Landlord to do so, including attorneys' fees and costs.
18 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
15. Covenants of Tenant
Tenant covenants and agrees that Tenant will:
(a) Faithfully observe and comply with the Rules and Regulations annexed
hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A and such additional
reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord hereafter at any time or
from time to time may communicate in writing to Tenant, and which, in
the reasonable judgment of Landlord, shall be necessary or desirable
for the reputation, safety, care or appearance of the Building, or the
preservation of good order therein, or the operation or maintenance of
the Building, or the equipment thereof, or the comfort of tenants or
others in the Building; provided, however, that in the case of any
conflict between the provisions of this Lease and any such rule or
regulation, the provisions of this Lease shall control. Nothing
contained in this Lease shall be construed to impose upon Landlord any
duty or obligation to enforce the Rules and Regulations or the terms,
covenants or conditions in any other lease as against any other
tenant, and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for violation of
any rule or regulation by any other tenant, its employees, agents,
visitors, invitees, subtenants or licensees. Notwithstanding the
above, Landlord agrees to use its best efforts to enforce the Rules
and Regulations against any other tenant who Tenant notifies Landlord
is violating same, which notification shall be in writing and shall
specify the nature of the rule or regulation violation that is
occurring.
(b) Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall promptly comply with all laws,
rules, regulations and ordinances, of all governmental authorities or
agencies having jurisdiction over the Premises, and of all insurance
bodies (including, without limitation, the Board of Fire
Underwriters), at any time duly issued or in force, applicable to
Tenant's specific use of the Premises.
16. Damage to Building
(a) In the event that the Building or any of the equipment affixed thereto
or stored therein should be damaged as a result of any act of Tenant,
its agents, servants, employees, invitees or contractors, Tenant
shall, within thirty (30) days after written demand, pay to Landlord
the cost of all required repairs, including structural repairs.
(b) If all or any part of the Premises is damaged by fire or other
casualty, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing. During any
period of time that all or a material portion of the Premises is
rendered untenantable as a result of a fire or other casualty, the
Rent shall abate for the portion of the Premises that is untenantable
and not used by Tenant. Landlord shall have the right to terminate
this Lease if: (i) the Building shall be damaged so that, in
Landlord's reasonable judgment, substantial alteration or
reconstruction of the Building shall be required (whether or not the
Premises has been damaged) and such alteration or reconstruction is
not reasonably possible to complete within one year after such damage
or destruction (as determined in accordance with Section 16(c)); (ii)
Landlord is not permitted by law to rebuild the Building in
substantially the same form as existed before the fire or casualty; or
(iii) the Premises have been materially damaged and there is less than
one (1) year of the Term remaining on the date of the casualty and
such damage is not reasonably possible to be repaired within ninety
(90) days after such damage or destruction (as determined in
accordance with Section 16(c)); provided, however, if Tenant has
exercised an Option to Extend before such damage, the Term shall be
deemed to be extended pursuant to the Option to Extend and Landlord
will not have the right to terminate the Lease. Landlord may exercise
its right to terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing
within sixty (60) days after the date Landlord delivers to Tenant the
Completion Estimate (as hereinafter defined). In addition to
Landlord's rights to terminate as provided herein, Tenant shall have
the right to terminate this Lease if: (iv) a substantial portion of
the Premises has been damaged by fire or other casualty and such
damage cannot reasonably be repaired within sixty (60) days after the
date of such fire
19 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
or other casualty; (v) there is less than one (1) year of the Lease
Term remaining on the date of such casualty; (vi) the casualty was not
caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or its
agents, employees or contractors; and (vii) Tenant provides Landlord
with written notice of its intent to terminate within thirty (30) days
after the date of the fire or other casualty. If neither Landlord nor
Tenant elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall promptly commence
and proceed with reasonable diligence to repair and restore the
Building. However, in no event shall Landlord be required to spend
more than the insurance proceeds received by Landlord or those that
would have been received had Landlord carried the insurance required
to be carried hereunder. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the
provisions of any law relating to the matters addressed in this
Section, and agree that their respective rights for damage to or
destruction of the Premises shall be those specifically provided in
this Lease.
(c) If all or any portion of the Premises shall be made untenantable for
Tenant's business purposes by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall,
with reasonable promptness but in no event later than the 30th day
after the fire or casualty occurred, cause an architect or general
contractor selected by Landlord to provide Landlord and Tenant with a
written estimate of the amount of time required to substantially
complete the repair and restoration of the Premises and make the
Premises tenantable again, using standard working methods ("Completion
Estimate"). If the Completion Estimate indicates that the Premises
cannot be made tenantable within one (1) year from the date the repair
and restoration is started, then regardless of anything in this
Section to the contrary, either party shall have the right to
terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other of such
election within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Completion
Estimate.
(d) In addition, if the Premises and the Building are not repaired and
restored as required herein within thirty (30) days after the date
Landlord estimated in the Completion Notice, Tenant shall have the
right to terminate this Lease by giving Landlord written notice
thereof at any time thereafter so long as such notice is delivered by
Tenant prior to completion of such repairs and restoration by
Landlord.
(e) For purposes of this Section, any fire or casualty which prevents
reasonable access and adequate elevator service to the Premises or the
lobby of the Building shall be deemed to have caused the Premises to
become untenantable. In addition, Tenant shall be permitted a
reasonable amount of time after delivery of the Premises to Tenant to
repair damage to Tenant's improvements, furniture, chattels and trade
fixtures before Tenant is obligated to pay the full amount of Base
Rent and Additional Rent.
17. Insurance
(a) Landlord agrees that throughout the Term Landlord shall insure the
Building against fire and other risks of casualty commonly insured
against in an amount at least as great as that amount that Landlord
reasonably believes to be the full replacement value of the Building,
less foundations and footings.
(b) Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, but, except to the
extent prohibited by law with respect to worker's compensation
insurance, for the mutual benefit of Landlord and Tenant and any
Additional Insured (as hereinafter defined) or any other additional
insured as Landlord may from time to time reasonably determine,
maintain or cause to be maintained (i) comprehensive general liability
insurance, including but not limited to, Premises, bodily injury,
personal injury, and contractual liability, coverages for any and all
or injury resulting from any act or omission on the part of Tenant or
Tenant's contractor's, licensees, agents, visitors or employees, on or
about the Premises including such claims arising out of the
construction of improvements on the Premises, such insurance to afford
protection to the limit of not less than Three Million Dollars
($3,000,000.00) in respect to injury or death to any one person or to
any number of persons or property damage arising out of a single
occurrence; (ii) worker's
20 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
compensation insurance covering all persons employed in connection
with the construction of any improvements by Tenant and the operation
of its business upon the Premises and (iii) "all risk" coverage on all
of Tenant's personal property, including, but not limited to, standard
fire and extended coverage insurance with vandalism and malicious
mischief endorsements on all Tenants improvements and alterations in
or about the Premises, to the extent of their full replacement value.
All such insurance shall, to the extent permitted by law, name
Landlord, its employees, agents, other representatives, successors and
assigns as additional insureds (other than Landlord, the "Additional
Insureds") and shall be written by a good and solvent insurance
carrier authorized to do business in the State of California.
(c) Prior to the Commencement Date, and at least thirty (30) days prior to
the expiration date of any policy, Tenant shall furnish evidence of
such insurance to Landlord. Such insurance shall be in form reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord and without limitation, shall provide that no
cancellation or lapse thereof or change therein shall be effective
until after thirty (30) days' written notice to Landlord at the
address specified in Section 23 of this Lease. Tenant waives all
rights of recovery against Landlord and the Additional Insureds for
any loss, damages, or injury of any nature whatsoever to property or
persons for which the Tenant is insured, except that Tenant does not
waive any rights it may have to recover against any party for any
loss, damages or injury to persons to the extent caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of such party.
(d) During the Term of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall maintain in
effect in each insurance policy required under this Lease that relates
to property damage a waiver of subrogation to the extent reasonably
obtainable at normal premium rates in favor of Landlord and the
Additional Insureds from its then current insurance carriers, and
shall at all times furnish evidence of such currently effective waiver
to each other. Such waiver shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory
to the other party and without limitation, shall provide that no
cancellation or lapse thereof or change therein shall be effective
until after thirty (30) days' written notice to such other party at
the address specified in Section 23 of this Lease.
(e) Each insurance policy required to be maintained under this Lease shall
state that:
(i) with respect to the interest of Landlord and the Additional
Insureds the insurance maintained pursuant to each such policy
shall not be invalidated by any action or inaction of Tenant and
shall insure Landlord and the Additional Insureds regardless of
any breach or violation of any warranties, declarations,
conditions or exclusions by Tenant.
(ii) all provisions of each such insurance policy, except for the
limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if a
separate policy had been issued to each person or entity insured
thereunder.
(iii) the insurance provided thereunder is primary insurance without
any right of contribution from any other insurance which may be
carried by or for the benefit of Landlord and the Additional
Insureds.
(iv) it recognizes the indemnification set forth in Section 19 of
this Lease.
(f) Failure of Tenant to maintain any of the insurance required under
this Lease or to cause to be provided in any insurance policy the
requirements set forth in this Section 17, shall constitute a default
under this Lease after the expiration of applicable notice and cure
periods.
18. Non-Liability of Landlord
(a) Landlord shall not be liable for (and Tenant shall make no claim for)
any property damage
21 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
which may be sustained by Tenant or any other person, as a consequence
of the failure, breakage, leakage, inadequacy, defect or obstruction
of the water, plumbing, steam, sewer, waste or soil pipes, roof,
drains, leaders, gutters, valleys, downspouts, or the like or of the
electrical, gas, power, conveyor, refrigeration, sprinkler, air
conditioning or heating systems, elevators or hoisting equipment; or
by reason of the elements; or resulting from the carelessness,
negligence or improper conduct on the part of any other tenant of

assignees or successors (except resulting from Landlord's negligence
or willful misconduct); or attributable to any interference with,
interruption of or failure, except resulting from Landlord's
negligence or willful misconduct, of any services or utilities to be
furnished or supplied by Landlord. Tenant shall give Landlord prompt
written notice of the occurrence of any events set forth in this
Section 18.
(b) Each party hereby releases the other party with respect to any claim
(including a claim for negligence) which it might otherwise have
against the other party for loss, damage or destruction with respect
to its property occurring during the term of this Lease to the extent
to which it is insured under a policy or policies carried or required
to be carried by Landlord or Tenant hereunder containing an
enforceable waiver of subrogation or permission to release liability.

expense (including, without limitation, reasonable legal and collection
fees), loss, liability (excluding consequential, damages suffered or
incurred as a result of or in connection with (i) any breach by Tenant of

such thirty (30) day period Tenant shall have commenced to cure such
failure and shall have provided Landlord with a written notice
undertaking to continue to diligently prosecute such cure to
completion and does in fact diligently complete such cure, in which
case the cure period provided herein

provisions of this Section 20.(c) relating to the extension of such
time period; or
(d) Tenant shall be adjudicated a bankrupt, insolvent or placed in

estate of Tenant hereunder shall pass to another by virtue of any
court proceedings, writ of execution, levy, sale, or by operation of
law.
21. Remedies
(a) If Tenant is in default of this Lease (after the expiration of
applicable notice and cure periods), then Landlord may avail itself of
any remedies under law, Landlord's election of any particular remedy
to be at Landlord's sole discretion. Landlord may elect to avail
itself of the remedy described in California Civil Code section
1951.4, in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect after Tenant's breach or abandonment, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in Section 29, Tenant shall
thereafter have the right to sublet or assign this Lease subject only
to reasonable limitations. If Landlord does not elect to avail itself
of the remedy described in California Civil Code section 1951.4 and
Tenant either breaches this Lease and abandons the Premises before the
end of the Term, or Tenant's right to possession is terminated by the
Landlord because of a breach of this Lease, then this Lease shall
terminate, and Landlord shall recover from Tenant the following:
(i) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rent which had been
earned at time of termination;
(ii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
Rent which would have been earned after termination until the
time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant
proves could have been reasonably avoided;
(iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds
the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be
reasonably avoided; and
(iv) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the
detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform
Tenant's obligations under the Lease, or which in the ordinary
course of things would be likely to result therefrom (including
without limitation, and costs of obtaining mitigating rental
income, such as excused rent, brokerage commissions, Tenant
improvements, parking concessions, lease takeovers, cash
payments, advertising, moving costs or any other cost or Tenant
concessions related to the re-leasing of the Premises upon
default of Tenant).
The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in
subparagraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) above, shall be computed by allowing
interest at the rate specified in Section 36 of this Lease; and the
"worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in
subparagraph (a)(iii) above, shall be computed by discounting such
amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco at the time of award, plus two percent (2%).
(b) Tenant waives any equity of redemption and any right to relief from
forfeiture as provided by California Code of Civil Procedure section
1179 (or any other similar applicable statute, regulation or law now
or hereinafter in effect).
(c) In addition to any and all other remedies Tenant may have at law or in
equity as a result of Landlord's default hereunder, in the event that
Landlord defaults (i) in its obligation to provide
23 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
janitorial and window washing services pursuant to this Lease, (ii) in
its obligation to keep certain items within the Premises or the
Building in good repair as set forth in this Lease, and (iii) in
paying to Tenant any allowances which may be due and owing under this
Lease, then Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such
continuing default and Landlord shall have a reasonable time given the
nature of such default, but in no event to exceed thirty (30) days
within which to cure such default. In the event that Landlord does not
cure such default within such time period, then Tenant shall have the
right to perform such cure and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the
direct out-of-pocket cost thereof promptly within thirty (30) days
after Landlord's receipt of bills and receipts therefor. In the event
Landlord does not so reimburse Tenant for such costs within thirty
(30) days after the receipt of such bills and receipts, Tenant may
set-off such amounts from the Rent next due and owing Landlord.
22. Subordination
This Lease is subject and subordinate in all respects to any underlying
leases, ground leases, licenses or agreements, and to all mortgages which
may now or hereafter be placed on or affect such leases, licenses or
agreements or the Land or Building or the Premises and also to all
renewals, modifications, consolidations and extensions of such underlying
leases, ground leases, licenses, agreements, and mortgages; provided,
however, that such subordination shall not be effective unless and until
the Landlord, licensor and/or the holder of any mortgages execute and
deliver to Tenant a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement
in form and substance consistent with Exhibit K ("SNDA Agreement"),
reasonably satisfactory to Tenant in each instance stating and confirming
that, among other things, that so long as there does not exist an uncured
default hereunder as to which the applicable grace period has expired,
Tenant's rights of possession and all other rights under this Lease,
including without limitation Tenant's set-off rights contained in this
Lease and termination rights contained herein, shall not be disturbed.
Although no instrument or act on the part of Tenant shall be necessary to
effectuate such subordination, Tenant shall, nevertheless, execute and
deliver such further reasonable instruments confirming such subordination
as may be desired by any holder of any such mortgage or by a lessor,
licensor or party to an agreement under any such underlying lease, ground
lease, license or agreement, respectively (so long as such subordination
agreement does not contravene the provisions of this Section). This Lease
is conditioned upon Landlord, Tenant and Landlord's current mortgagee,
licensor and/or landlord entering into a commercially reasonable SNDA
Agreement simultaneous with the execution of this Lease. If any underlying
lease, ground lease, license or agreement to which this Lease is subject
and subordinate terminates, or if any mortgage to which this Lease is
subordinate is foreclosed, Tenant shall, on timely request, attorn to the
holder of the reversionary interest or to the mortgagee in possession, as
the case may be.
23. Notices
Any such notice, demand, statement or other communication shall be given in
writing by or made upon hand delivery or by registered or certified mail,

be, addressed to the respective parties as follows:

24. Quiet Enjoyment
Landlord covenants that Tenant, upon keeping and performing each and every
covenant, agreement, term, provision and condition herein contained on the
part and on behalf of Tenant to be kept and performed, shall quietly enjoy
the Premises without hindrance or molestation by Landlord or by any other
person lawfully claiming by, through or under the same subject to the
covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease and
the effect of the application of same.
25. Security Deposit
Not required.
26. Brokerage
Each of Landlord and Tenant warrants to each other that it has had no
dealings with any real estate broker or agent other than Procuring Broker
as stated in paragraph 13 of the Lease Preamble in connection with the
negotiation of the Lease, and that it knows of no other real estate broker
or agent who is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in connection
with this Lease. Each party will indemnify the other against any claim of
breach of the warranty provided in this Section 26.
27. Landlord's Inability to Perform
Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease if Landlord is not able
to supply any service or material called for herein, by reason of any rule,
order, regulation or preemption by any governmental entity, authority,
department, agency, or subdivision or for any delay which may arise by
reason of negotiation for the adjustment of any fire or other casualty loss
or because of strikes or other labor trouble or for any cause beyond the
control of the Landlord. Except for Tenant's obligation to pay Rent due
hereunder, Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease if Tenant is not
able to supply any service or material called for herein, by reason of any
rule, order, regulation or preemption by any governmental entity,
authority, department, agency, or subdivision or any delay which may arise
by reason of negotiation for the adjustment of any fire or other casualty
loss or because of strikes or labor trouble or any cause beyond the
reasonable control of Tenant.
25 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
28. Condemnation
Tenant, at its sole option, may terminate this Lease if the whole or any
material part of the Premises shall be taken or condemned for any public or
quasi-public use under Law, by eminent domain or private purchase in lieu
thereof (a "Taking"). Landlord and Tenant shall also have the right to
terminate this Lease if there is a Taking of any portion of the Building
which would leave the remainder of the Building unsuitable for use as an
office building in a manner comparable to the Building's use prior to the
Taking and such Taking makes it necessary to remodel or reconstruct the
Building in a manner inconsistent with Tenant's use and occupancy or other
material rights hereunder and such remodeling and reconstruction is
reasonably estimated by Landlord to take more than 180 days to complete. In
order to exercise its right to terminate the Lease, Landlord or Tenant, as
the case may be, must provide written notice of termination to the other
within 30 days after the terminating party first receives notice of the
Taking. Any such termination shall be effective as of the date the physical
taking of the Premises or the portion of the Building or Property occurs.
If this Lease is not terminated, the Net Rentable Area of the Building, the
Net Rentable Area of the Premises and Tenant's Proportional Share shall, if
applicable, be appropriately adjusted. In addition, Rent for any portion of
the Premises taken or condemned shall be abated during the unexpired Term
of this Lease effective when the physical taking of the portion of the
Premises occurs. All compensation awarded for a Taking, or sale proceeds,
shall be the property of Landlord, any right to receive compensation or
proceeds being expressly waived by Tenant. However, Tenant may file a
separate claim at its sole cost and expense for Tenant's Property, Tenant's
unamortized leasehold improvements, Tenant's interruption of damage to
business, and Tenant's relocation expenses.
29. Assignment and Subletting
(a) In the event that Tenant desires to assign the Lease or any portion
thereof or sublease the Premises or any portion thereof to any other
party the terms and conditions of such assignment or sublease shall be
communicated to Landlord in writing not less than thirty (30) days
prior to the effective date of any such assignment or sublease.
Landlord shall review such terms and conditions, and provide Tenant
with its approval or disapproval within five (5) business days.
(b) Tenant may assign or sublet the whole or any portion of the Premises,
subject to the Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and subject to
the consent of any mortgagee, or ground lessor, and on the basis of
the following terms and conditions:
(i) Tenant shall provide to Landlord the name and address of the
assignee or sublessee.
(ii) In the case of an assignment of this Lease, the assignee shall
assume, by written instrument, all of the obligations of this
Lease, and a copy of such assumption agreement shall be
furnished to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the
effective date of the assignment or sublease.
(iii) Tenant and each assignee shall be and remain liable for the
observance of all the covenants and provisions of this Lease,
including, but not limited to, the payment of Total Monthly
Rent, Additional Rent and other charges due hereunder through
the entire term of this Lease, as the same may be renewed,
extended or otherwise modified.
(iv) Tenant shall share in the net gain (after deducting Tenant's
expenses; including but not limited to commissions, marketing
materials, design and alterations to the space, legal fees,
etc.) at the rate of 50% to Tenant, 50% to Landlord of all rent,
as and when received, in excess of the Total Monthly Rent and
Additional Rent required to be paid by Tenant for the area
assigned or sublet.
26 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
(v) In any event, the acceptance by Landlord of any rent from
any of the assignees or subtenants or the failure of
Landlord to insist upon a strict performance of any of the
terms, conditions and covenants herein from any assignee or
subtenant shall not release Tenant herein, from any and all
of the obligations herein during and for the entire Term of
this Lease.
(vi) Tenant shall only assign or sublet the Premises to an
assignee or sublessee whose use is the same as or similar to
Tenant's use, the quality of such assignee or subtenant's
operations in the performance of said use to be acceptable
to Landlord, in Landlord's reasonable discretion.
(vii) Landlord shall be reimbursed by Tenant for the actual and
reasonable legal fees incurred by Landlord in connection
with the granting of any consent, such amount to be paid by
Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Landlord
renders to Tenant a copy of Landlord's actual invoice for
same.
(viii) The assignment or sublease shall provide that there shall be
no further assignments and/or subletting without Landlord's
consent.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease to the
contrary, Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease or sublet all or
any part of the Premises without the consent of Landlord to (1) any entity
resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant or any organization
purchasing substantially all of Tenant's assets, (2) any entity succeeding
to substantially all the business and assets of Tenant, (3) any subsidiary,
affiliate or parent of Tenant, (4) any entity controlling, controlled by or
under common control with Tenant, or (5) any entity resulting from the
reorganization of Tenant outside of a bankruptcy organization. In such
event, Tenant shall notify Landlord of such transfer within fifteen (15)
days after such transfer. For purposes of this Lease "control" shall mean
the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the
direction of the management and policies of an entity, whether through the
ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.
30. Environmental Laws
(a) Tenant agrees to comply with all applicable environmental laws, rules
and regulations including Federal, state and local laws. Tenant shall
not conduct any operations that shall cause the Building or the
Premises to be deemed anything but an office building.
(b) Tenant hereby agrees to execute such documents Landlord reasonably
deems necessary and to make such applications as Landlord reasonably
requires to insure such compliance. Tenant shall bear all costs and
expenses incurred by Landlord associated with any required compliance
resulting from Tenant's use of the Premises including but not limited
to state agency fees, engineering fees, clean-up costs, filing fees
and suretyship expenses. As used in this Lease, compliance shall
include applications for determinations of non-applicability by the
appropriate governmental authority. The foregoing undertaking shall
survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease and
surrender of the Premises and shall also survive sale, or lease or
assignment of the Premises by Landlord. Tenant shall immediately
provide Landlord with copies of all correspondence, reports, notices,
orders, findings, declarations and other materials pertinent to
Tenant's compliance and the requirements as they are issued or
received by the Tenant.
(c) Except for normal quantities of office and cleaning supplies, Tenant
shall not generate, store, manufacture, refine, transport, treat,
dispose of, or otherwise permit to be present on or about the
Premises, any Hazardous Substances. As used herein, Hazardous
Substances shall be defined as any "hazardous chemical," "hazardous
substance" or similar term as defined in the Comprehensive
Environmental Responsibility Compensation and Liability Act, as
amended (42
27 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
U.S.C. 9601, et ~.), any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder,
or in any other present or future applicable federal, state or local
laws, rules or regulations dealing with environmental protection.
(d) Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Landlord and each
mortgagee of the Premises from and against any and all liabilities,
damages, claims, losses, judgments, causes of action, costs and
expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) which
may be incurred by the Landlord or any such mortgagee or threatened
against the Landlord or such mortgagee, relating to or arising out of
any breach by Tenant of this Section, which indemnification shall
survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
31. Parties Bound
(a) The covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this
Lease shall bind and benefit the respective successors, assigns and
legal representatives of the parties hereto with the same effect as if
mentioned in each instance where a party hereto is named or referred
to except that no violation of the provisions of Section 29 shall
operate to vest any rights in any successor, assignee or legal
representative of Tenant and that the provisions of this Section 31
shall not be construed as modifying the conditions contained in
Section 29.
(b) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that if Landlord shall be an
individual, joint venture, tenancy in common, firm, or partnership,
general or limited, there shall be no personal liability on such
individual or on the members of such joint venture, tenancy in common,
firm or partnership in respect of any of the covenants or conditions
of this Lease; rather, Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlord's
estate and property in the Land, Building, and Common Areas (or the
proceeds thereof) for the satisfaction of Tenant's remedies arising
out of or related to this Lease.
(c) The term "Landlord" as used in this Lease means only the owner, or the
mortgagee in possession, for the time being of the Premises (or the
owner of a lease of the Premises) so that in the event of any sale or
sales of the Land, Building, or the Premises or of said lease, or in
the event of a lease of the Land, Building or the Premises, said
Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all
covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder accruing after such
sale or lease, and it shall be deemed and construed without further
agreement between the parties or their successors in interest, or
between the parties and the purchaser, at any such sale, or the said
lessee of the Land, Building or of the Premises, that the purchaser or
the lessee of the same has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all
covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder.
32. Estoppel Certificate
(a) Within ten (10) business days following any written request which one
party may make from time to time, the other party shall execute and
deliver to the requesting party a statement in similar to Exhibit H
attached hereto, certifying:
(i) the date of commencement of this Lease;
(ii) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or, if there have been modifications hereto, that this
Lease is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the
date and nature of such modifications);
(iii) the date to which the rental and other sums payable under this
Lease have been paid;
(iv) the fact that there are no current defaults under this Lease
by either the Landlord or Tenant except as specified in such
statement; and
28 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
(v) such other matters as are reasonably required by the
requesting party. Landlord and Tenant intend that any
statement delivered pursuant to this Section 32. may be
relied upon by any lender or any mortgagee, beneficiary,
purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Building or any
interest therein.
(b) Tenant's or Landlord's failure to deliver such statement within such
time shall be conclusive upon the non-delivering party that:
(i) this Lease is in full force and effect without modification,
except as may be stated in the certificate originally
presented to the non-delivering party;
(ii) there are no uncured defaults in requesting party's or
non-delivering party's performance; and
(iii) not more than one (1) month's rental has been paid in
advance.
33. Holding Over
(a) Tenant shall not hold over after the expiration of the Term or
earlier termination of this Lease without the prior written consent
of Landlord. Tenant agrees that Tenant's failure to surrender
possession of the Premises at the end of the Term can and will cause
actual damage to Landlord which is impracticable or extremely
difficult to ascertain (including, without limitation, lost
opportunities to lease the Premises, increase the cost of
improvements, lost rent and liability for Landlord's inability to
deliver timely possession of the Premises to another tenant).
Therefore, if Tenant holds over after the Term without the prior
written consent of Landlord, then Tenant shall become a Tenant at
sufferance only and shall continue to perform each and every term,
condition and covenant of this Lease during any such period of
holding over; except that, in lieu of damages to which Landlord may
be entitled hereunder, Landlord may elect to have Tenant pay Landlord
liquidated damages in an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five
percent (125%) of the Total Monthly Rent payable by Tenant to
Landlord in the last complete month of the Term, for each month or
portion thereof which Tenant so holds over.
(b) If Landlord consents to Tenant's holding over after the expiration of
the Term or earlier termination of this Lease, then the tenancy shall
continue from month-to-month upon the same terms, conditions and
covenants contained in this Lease, except that for each month or
portion thereof that the Tenant holds over, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord rent equal to one hundred twenty-five (125%) of the Total
Monthly Rent payable by Tenant in the last complete month of the
Term.
(c) The foregoing provisions of this Section are in addition to any other
rights of Landlord hereunder, or as otherwise provided by law,
including, without limitation, the right to bring an action for
unlawful detainer. Landlord's acceptance of rent after expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease, or during any such period of
holding over shall not be construed as a renewal or extension of this
Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Lease, Tenant shall not be entitled to any parking discounts or
specific modes of parking during such period of hold over.
34. Attorney's Fees
If either Landlord or Tenant brings to suit to interpret or enforce any
provision of this Lease or any rights of either party hereto, then the
prevailing party shall recover from the other party all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorney's fees. Notwithstanding the provisions of
California Civil Code section 1717, the term "prevailing party" as used
herein shall include, without limitation, both a
29 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
party as to who a lawsuit is dismissed (with or without prejudice) without
the written consent of that party and, if the lawsuit is one for
declaratory relief, that party whose contentions are substantially upheld
as to the interpretations of this Lease. Any attorney's fees payable
pursuant to this Section may be claimed either as court costs or in a
separate suit.
35. Waiver of Jury Trial
Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive their respective rights to trial by
jury of any cause of action, claim, counterclaim or cross-complaint in any
action, proceeding and/or hearing brought by either Landlord against
Tenant, or Tenant against Landlord, as to any matter whatsoever arising out
of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord
and Tenant, Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, any claim of injury
or damage, or the enforcement of any remedy under any law, statue, or
regulation, emergency or otherwise, now or hereafter in effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant agree that this waiver
shall not be effective where the legal effect of such waiver would be to
invalidate in whole or in part, or to limit or impair in any manner any
policy of insurance in force for the benefit of Landlord or Tenant or to
limit or impair any rights, remedies or coverage afforded thereunder.
36. Waiver
No waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or of any breach by
Tenant hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision
hereof, or of any subsequent breach by Tenant of the same or any other
provision. Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring
Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to render unnecessary
the obtaining of Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act of
Tenant. No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord's agents during the
term of this Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the
Premises, unless done in writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of the
keys to any employee or agent of Landlord shall not operate as a
termination of the Lease or a surrender of the Premises. The acceptance of
any rent by Landlord following a breach of this Lease by Tenant shall not
constitute a waiver by Landlord of such breach or any other breach unless
such waiver is expressly stated in a writing signed by Landlord.
37. Examination of Lease
Submission of this instrument for examination or signature does not
constitute a reservation or option for Lease, and it is not effective as a
Lease or otherwise until execution by and delivery to both Landlord and
Tenant.
38. Corporate Authority
If a party executes this Lease as a limited liability company, corporation,
or other corporate entity, each of the parties does hereby covenant and
warrant to the other party that it is a duly authorized and existing entity
under the laws of the state of its organization, is qualified to do
business in California, that it has full right and authority to enter into
this Lease, and that each person signing on behalf of it is authorized to
do so.
39. No Light, Air or View Easement
Any diminution or shutting off of light, air or view by any structure which
may be erected on lands adjacent to the Building shall in no way affect
this Lease or impose any liability on Landlord.
30 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
40. Miscellaneous
(a) This Lease contains the entire contract between the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof. No representative, agent or
employee of Landlord has been authorized to make any representations
or promises with reference to the leasing of the Premises or to vary,
alter or modify the terms hereof. No additions, changes or
modifications, renewals, or extensions (unless Tenant exercises its
right to extend the Term as provided herein or as otherwise expressly
provided in this Lease) hereof, shall be binding unless reduced to
writing and signed by Landlord and Tenant.
(b) The terms, conditions, covenants and provisions of this Lease shall
be deemed to be severable. If any clause or provision herein
contained be adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of
competent jurisdiction or by operation of any applicable law, it
shall not affect the validity of any other clause or provision
herein, but such other clauses or provisions shall remain in full
force and effect.
(c) Tenant shall not be entitled to exercise any right of termination or
other option granted to it by this Lease at any time when Tenant is
in default in the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements, terms, provisions or conditions on its part to be
performed or observed under this Lease beyond applicable notice and
cure periods.
(d) The Section headings in this Lease are for convenience only and are
not to be considered in construing the same.
(e) If, in connection with obtaining financing for the Building, a
banking, insurance or other recognized institutional lender shall
request reasonable modifications in this Lease as a condition to such
financing, Tenant will not unreasonably withhold, delay or defer its
consent thereto, provided that such modifications do not increase the
financial or other obligations of Tenant hereunder or adversely
affect the leasehold interest created or the conduct of Tenant's
business operations at the Premises.
(f) Conflict of Laws: This Lease shall be governed by and construed under
the laws of the State of California.
(g) Venue: Any lawsuit brought by Tenant against Landlord shall be filed
in a court of competent jurisdiction in the County of Orange,
California.
(h) Interest: Wheresoever required in this Lease, and in lieu of the
legal rate to be used in the computation of any interest owed
Landlord in any judgement or award of the court, interest shall be
charged at a rate equal to the higher of:
(i) Seven percent (7%) per annum; or
(ii) Two percent (2%) per annum, plus the rate established by the
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco on advances to member
banks under Sections 13 and 13(a) of the Federal Reserve Act (as
now in effect, or hereafter from time to time amended or, if
there is no such single terminable rate of advances, the closest
counterpart of such rate as shall be designated by the

fifteen (15) year term upon the following terms and conditions:
a. The Tenant is not in material default, with all required written
notices given and all applicable cure periods expired, under any
terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Lease at the time
of exercising the Option.
b. That such Option to Extend shall be upon the same terms, covenants,
conditions and provisions of this Lease.

Termination Date, Tenant shall notify Landlord of Tenant's
interest in exercising the Option to Extend;
(ii) Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days, present Tenant

c) terminate/rescind the renewal notice.
(iv) This Option to Extend is for Tenant's use and can not be
assigned or transferred to a Permitted Transferee or other
successor or assignee that fully complies with the
assignment provisions stipulated in the Lease.
2. Fair Market Rate
For the purposes hereof, the term "Fair Market Rate" shall mean the monthly
amount per Net Rentable Area that a willing, comparable, new non-expansion,
non-equity tenant would pay, and a willing, comparable landlord of a comparable
class A office building with comparable vacancy within a five (5) mile radius of
the Building would accept, at arm's length for a comparable amount of space for
a comparable period of time giving appropriate consideration to the monthly
rental rates per rentable square feet, the type of operating expenses escalation
clauses typically granted tenants, abatement of rent if any, length of lease
term, size and location of the premises being leased, tenant improvement
allowance in pre-improved space if any, and other generally applicable
conditions of tenancy of a multi-floor tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall
commence negotiations to agree upon the Fair Market Rate ("FMR") upon the
42 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
delivery of a FMR by the Landlord. If both parties are unable to reach agreement
of FMR within fifteen (15) business days after delivery by Landlord, the FMR
shall be determined in accordance with the sub-sections (a) through (c) below:
a) If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree in FMR within fifteen (15)
business days, within the next five (5) business days thereafter, Landlord
and Tenant shall simultaneously submit to the other, in a sealed envelope,
its good-faith estimate of FMR. If the higher of such estimates is not more
than one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower such estimate, then the
FMR shall be the average of the two submitted estimates.
b) If the FMR is not resolved by the exchange of the estimates, then either
the Landlord or the Tenant may by written notice ("Notice to Arbitrate") to
the other within five (5) business days of the exchange, require that the
disagreement in terms be resolved by arbitration. Within five (5) business
days after such notice, the parties shall select a mutually acceptable MAI
appraiser with experience in commercial office leasing activities,
including at least ten (10) years of experience in appraising office space
comparables in the Newport Beach / Irvine area. The selection of the
arbitrator shall be rendered in writing to both Landlord and Tenant and
whose opinion of FMR shall be final and binding upon both parties. If the
arbitrator believes that expert advice would materially assist him/her,
he/she may retain one or more qualified persons.
c) Once the arbitrator has been selected, then, as soon thereafter as
practical, but in no case later than ten (10) business days, the arbitrator
shall select one of the two estimates of FMR provided by Landlord and
Tenant, which must be the one that is closest to the FMR estimate that was
independently established by the arbitrator. The party whose estimate is
not chosen as the closest to the arbitrator's shall pay the costs of the
arbitrator and any of experts retained by the arbitrator. Any fees of any
counsel or expert engaged directly by Landlord or Tenant however, shall be
borne by the respective party retaining such counsel or expert.
3. Signage Rights
Tenant shall retain its rights for Building top signage, as well as front entry
monument signage and, monument signage on Bristol Ave. Tenant may also use its
corporate logo on entry doors, with all such costs to be paid solely by Tenant.

cost.

business hours, within one hundred and twenty (120) days following the
furnishing by Landlord of an annual statement described above in Sections 5.d
and 6.c and upon reasonable prior notice to Landlord, to inspect Landlord's
books and records showing the Operating Expenses reflected in such annual
statement: provided however, that the foregoing shall not relieve Tenant of
paying any deficiency shown by Landlord's statement within forty five (45) days
after receipt of such statement. Unless Tenant shall, by notice to Landlord
within such one hundred and twenty (120) day period, take exception to any item
in such statement, the statement shall be conclusively binding and shall not be
contestable by Tenant. Tenant's review may include the employment of an
accounting selected by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord. The expense
of the aforesaid firm shall be borne by Tenant, except that if by reason of such
exception Tenant has overpaid Additional Charges by more than three (3%) percent
for any Lease Year, then Landlord shall pay its own expenses and the expense of
said firm for said review. If errors are discovered in the Landlord's
accounting, an adjustment to the Additional Charges shall be made. In addition,
Tenant shall pay Landlord at cost for copies actually made by Landlord during
such review. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord's books and records are
confidential and proprietary in nature and that Landlord could be damaged if
such books and records became public. Therefore, Tenant agrees to keep such
books and records in strict confidence and not to publish or disseminate the
same or any information therein without
43 Real Estate/Newport Beach Lease(3)
Landlord's prior approval, except to Tenant's lawyers or accountants or in
connection with legal proceedings.

each be determined based on the 5th and 10th year anniversary timeframe(s) at
95% of FMR as defined above.

Notice, Landlord shall determine (i) the specific floor of the
Expansion Space and the location of the Expansion Space on such floor,

date for the Expansion Space. Landlord will notify Tenant of such
determination within such thirty (30) day period (Landlord's Notice").

delivery date set forth in Landlord's Notice.
(b) Tenant shall have ten (10) business days to accept the conditions as

Purchaser to be claiming through or under Tenant) under the Lease by reason of
the subordination of the Lease to the Mortgage or any modifications of or
default under the Mortgage or in any foreclosure action or any other action or
proceeding instituted under or in connection with the Mortgage, unless such
right would have independently existed if the Mortgage had not been made and (b)
neither Tenant nor any person known to Lender to be claiming through or under
Tenant shall be named or joined in any foreclosure action or other proceeding
to enforce the Mortgage unless such joinder shall be required by law, provided
that such joinder shall not result in the termination of the Lease or disturb

then executory terms,
2
covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term
thereof remaining and any extensions or renewals thereof which may be
effected by Tenant in accordance with any option therefor in the
Lease, with the same force and effect as if the Purchaser were the
landlord under the Lease, (y) Purchaser shall recognize the rights of

rights, any options relating to renewal, expansion, contraction and
the right to purchase the Mortgage Property, and any rights of
termination specifically set forth in the Lease and (z) the Lease
shall continue in full force as a direct lease between Tenant and
Purchaser and the respective executory rights and obligations of
Tenant and Purchaser (as landlord under the Lease), to the extent of
the then remaining balance of the term of the Lease and any such
extensions and renewals, shall be and are the same as set forth
therein; provided that, except as otherwise provided in Section 5(b)
and Section 5(c) below, Purchaser (so long as Purchaser is not an
affiliate of Landlord) shall not be:
(i) liable for any act or omission of or default by Landlord or any
prior landlord under the Lease;
(ii) subject to any credits, claims, setoffs or defenses which Tenant
might have against Landlord or any prior landlord as a result of
any acts or omissions of Landlord or any prior landlord;
(iii) subject to clause (vi) below, bound by any fixed rent, basic
rent, additional rent or other amounts which Tenant may have
paid to Landlord more than thirty days in advance of the month
to which such payments relate, and all such prepaid rent and
additional rent shall remain due and owing without regard to
such prepayment, except for prepayments of additional rent made
on account of operating expenses and real estate taxes in
accordance with the terms of the Lease;
(iv) bound by any amendment, modification or cancellation of the
Lease or surrender of the Demised Premises made without Lender's
or Purchaser's prior written consent, except for (a) any
amendment or modification specifically contemplated by the terms
of the Lease, including, without limitation, amendments or
modifications entered into in connection with Tenant's expansion
and contraction rights; and (b) any amendment or modification
that is of an administrative nature relating to the ordinary
course of operation of the Building that does not purport to be
amendments or modifications of the Lease and do not materially
adversely affect the rights of Landlord, Lender or Purchaser
provided that Tenant and/or Landlord shall have given Lender or
Purchaser at least ten business days prior notice thereof;
(v) responsible for the making of repairs in or to the mortgaged
Property in the case of damage or destruction of the Mortgaged
Property or any part thereof due to fire or other casualty
occurring prior to the date on which Purchaser acquires title to
the Mortgaged Property (or the date, if such date shall occur
prior to the foregoing date, on which Lender shall elect to
become a mortgagee-in-possession) or by reason of a condemnation
3
occurring prior to the date on which Purchaser acquires title to
the Mortgaged Property (or the date, if such date shall occur
prior to the foregoing date, on which Lender shall elect to
become a mortgagee-in-possession) unless Landlord shall be
obligated under the Lease to make such repairs in which event
Purchaser shall make such repairs but only to the extent that
Purchaser shall have received insurance proceeds or cash
condemnation awards sufficient (when aggregated with, in the
case of damage or destruction, an amount equal to the applicable
insurance deductible) to finance such repairs; or
(vi) obligated to make any payment to Tenant required to be made by
Landlord prior to the date on which the interests of Landlord
under the Lease are transferred to Purchaser (or the date, if
such date shall occur prior to the foregoing date, on which
Lender shall elect to become a mortgagee-in-possession) except
for (x) the timely return of any security deposit actually
received by Purchaser and (y) the credit or refund to Tenant as
provided in the Lease of any prepayment of rent or other charges
paid by Tenant if such prepayment is actually received by
Purchaser.
(b) Nothing contained in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 5(a) above shall
relieve the Purchaser from any liability for its own failure to
perform the obligations of the landlord under the Lease to the extent
such obligations accrue during or are otherwise applicable to the
period after the date that the Purchaser obtains title to the
Mortgaged Property (or the date, if such date shall occur prior to the
foregoing date, on which Lender shall elect to become a
mortgagee-in-possession). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement (other than the next succeeding sentence
hereof), the Purchaser (including the Lender if it be the Purchaser)
shall be bound by all abatements of, and offsets or credits against,
the rent payable under the Lease to which Tenant may be entitled under
the terms of the Lease and shall recognize all of the rights of Tenant
under the Lease regardless of whether any such abatement, offset,
credit or other rights shall have accrued with respect to any period
prior to the date that the Purchaser obtains title to the Mortgaged
Property or shall elect to become a mortgage-in-possession.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement
or the Lease, the liability of Lender and Purchaser, respectively,
with respect to the Lease shall be further limited to Lender's and
Purchaser's respective interests in the Mortgaged Property and Tenant
shall not look to any other property or assets of Lender, Purchaser or
any of the partners, shareholders, directors, officers or principals,
direct or indirect, of Lender or Purchaser in seeking either to
enforce Purchaser's (including Lender if it be the Purchaser)
obligations under the Lease or to satisfy a judgment (including,
without limitation, a judgment for specific performance) for
Purchaser's (including Lender's if it be the Purchaser) failure to
perform such obligations.
(c) Tenant hereby attorns to the Purchaser, including Lender if it be the
Purchaser, as its landlord, upon the terms and conditions herein set
forth, said attornment to be effective and self-operative upon
Purchaser's succeeding to the interest of Landlord under the Lease
without the execution of any further instruments.
4
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the
event of (1) any act, omission, default, misrepresentation, or breach
of warranty of any previous landlord (including Landlord), which would
result in liability of such previous landlord, or (2) any event or
circumstance which subjects a previous landlord to any offset,
defense, claim or counterclaim (a "Liability Event") and the event or
circumstance which gave rise to such Liability Event continues to
exist after actual ownership and possession of the Mortgaged Property
(a "Carryover Liability Event") by Purchaser, including Lender if it
be the Purchaser (the "Transition Date"), Purchaser shall nonetheless
be liable as landlord under the Lease for the obligations accruing
with respect to any such Carryover Liability Event after the
Transition Date.
6. Covenants of Tenant.
(a) Tenant agrees for the benefit of Lender that, so long as the Mortgage
remains a lien upon the Mortgaged Property, Tenant will not:
(i) pay any rent more than 30 days in advance of accrual, except for
prepayments of additional rent made on account of operating
expenses and real estate taxes in accordance with the terms of
the Lease;
(ii) surrender the Tenant's estate under the Lease, other than by
exercise of Tenant's express rights under the Lease;
(iii) enter into any modification or amendment to the terms of the
Lease except for (a) any amendment or modification specifically
contemplated by the terms of the Lease, including, without
limitation, amendments or modifications entered into in
connection with Tenant's expansion and contraction rights; and
(b) any amendment or modification that is of an administrative
nature relating to the ordinary course of operation of the
Building that does not purport to be amendments or modifications
of the Lease and do not materially adversely affect the rights
of Landlord, Lender or Purchaser provided that Tenant and/or
Landlord shall have given Lender or Purchaser provided at least
ten business days prior notice thereof. In the event that
Tenant, without Lender's consent, enters into any modification
or amendment of the Lease that is not of a type specified in
clause (a) or (b) above, this Agreement will continue to be in
full force and effect, except that neither Lender nor Purchaser
shall be bound by such amendment or modification; or
(iv) expressly consent to termination of the Lease by the Landlord
thereunder other than a termination by the Landlord pursuant to
the express provisions of the Lease.
(b) If any act or omission of Landlord would give Tenant the right,
immediately or after notice or lapse of a period of the time or both,
to cancel or terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total
eviction or constructive eviction, Tenant shall give written notice of
such act or omission to Lender simultaneously with the giving of
5
any notice thereof to Landlord as required under the Lease and Tenant
shall not exercise such right until:
(i) Tenant has given written notice of such act or omission to
Landlord and, concurrently therewith, to Lender; and
(ii) Landlord shall have failed to cure the same within the time
limits set forth in the Lease; and
(iii) Lender or the Purchaser (if the Purchaser is not Lender) shall
have failed to remedy such act or omission within the cure
period available to Landlord under the Lease plus 15 days.
7. Payment to Lender.
After notice is given to Tenant by Lender that, pursuant to the Mortgage,
the rentals under the Lease should be paid to Lender, Tenant shall pay to
Lender, or in accordance with the written directions of Lender, all rentals and
other monies then due and to become due to Landlord under the Lease, and
Landlord hereby expressly authorizes Tenant to make such payments to Lender and
hereby fully releases and discharges Tenant of, and from any liability to
Landlord on account of any such payments.
8. Representations and Warranties.
Tenant represents to Lender that:
(a) The Lease is full force and effect and has not been modified (except
as may be set forth herein).
(b) No rent has been paid under the Lease more than 30 days in advance of
accrual.
(c) The address of the Tenant for notices under the Lease is as follows:

_______________; and (ii) WITH COPIES to ________________________
_______________, Attention: ____________________.
9. Successors and Assigns.

Tenant, Landlord and Lender and any Purchaser, and their respective heirs,
personal representatives, successors and assigns and any modifications or
amendments of this Agreement must be in writing and executed by the party or
parties hereto intended to be bound thereby.
10. Severability.

person or circumstances, shall to any extent to invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder of this Agreement, or the application of any such terms to any person
or circumstances other than those as to which
6
it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term of
this agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by
law.
11. Choice of Law.
