Base Rent for any partial month at the beginning or end of the Term shall be prorated based on the actual number of days in the month. 4 3.2 Additional Rent: Increases in Operating Costs and Taxes. -------------------------------------------------------- (a) Definitions. ------------ (1) "Base Operating Costs" means Operating Costs for the calendar year specified as the Base Year in the Basic Lease Information (excluding therefrom, however, any Operating Costs of a nature that would not ordinarily be incurred on an annual, recurring basis). (2) "Base Taxes" means Taxes for the calendar year specified as the Base Year in the Basic Lease Information. (3) "Operating Costs" means all costs of managing, operating, maintaining and repairing the Property, including all costs, expenditures, fees and charges for: (A) operation, maintenance and repair of the Property (including maintenance, repair and replacement of glass, the roof coveting or membrane, and landscaping); (B) utilities and services (including telecommunications facilities and equipment, recycling programs and trash removal), and associated supplies and materials; (C) compensation (including employment taxes and fringe benefits) for persons (below the level of building manager) who perform duties in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Building, such compensation to be appropriately allocated for persons who also perform duties unrelated to the Building; (D) property (including coverage for earthquake and flood if carded by Landlord), liability, rental income and other insurance relating to the Property, and expenditures for deductible amounts paid under such insurance, which shall be charged in the manner set forth in clause (G) below if the cost incurred is one which would normally be capitalized; (E) licenses, permits and inspections; (F) complying with the requirements of any law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule or regulation or any orders pursuant thereto (collectively "Laws") which shall be charged in the manner set forth in clause (G) below if the cost incurred is one which would normally be capitalized; (G) amortization of capital improvements or repairs which would normally be capitalized under generally accepted accounting practices required to comply with Laws, or which are intended to reduce Operating Costs or improve the utility, efficiency or capacity of any Building System, with interest on the unamortized balance at the rate paid by Landlord on funds borrowed to finance such capital improvements (or, if Landlord finances such improvements out of Landlord's funds without borrowing, the rate that Landlord would have paid to borrow such funds, as reasonably determined by Landlord), over such useful life as Landlord shall reasonably determine; (H) an office in the Project for the management of the Property, including expenses of furnishing and equipping such office and the rental value of any space occupied for such purposes; (I) property management fees which shall not exceed those commercially reasonable fees which would be charged by a reputable third party property manager; (J) accounting, legal and other professional services incurred in connection with the operation of the Property which benefit the Premises and/or the common areas and the calculation of Operating Costs and Taxes; (K) a reasonable allowance for depreciation on machinery and equipment used to maintain the Property and on other personal property owned by Landlord in the Property (including window coverings and carpeting in common areas), provided that such machinery, equipment and/or personal property benefit the Premises and/or the common areas; (L) contesting the validity or applicability of any Laws that may affect the Premises and/or the common areas; (M) the Building's share of any shared or common area maintenance fees and expenses; and (N) any other expense or charge, whether or not hereinbefore described, which in accordance with generally 5 accepted property management practices would be considered an expense of managing, operating, maintaining and repairing the Property. Operating Costs for any year (including, without limitation the Base Year) during which average occupancy of the Building is less than one hundred percent (100%) shall be calculated based upon the Operating Costs that would have been incurred if the Building had an average occupancy of one hundred percent (100%) during the entire calendar year. Operating Costs shall not include (i) capital improvements (except as otherwise provided above); (ii) costs of special services rendered to individual tenants (including Tenant) for which a special charge is made; (iii) interest and principal payments on loans or indebtedness secured by the Building; (iv) costs of improvements for Tenant or other tenants of the Building; (v) costs of services or other benefits of a type which are not available to Tenant but which are available to other tenants or occupants, and costs for which Landlord is reimbursed by other tenants of the Building other than through payment of tenants' shares of increases in Operating Costs and Taxes; (vi) leasing commissions, attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred in connection with leasing space in the Building or enforcing such leases; (vii) depreciation or amortization, other than as specifically enumerated in the definition of Operating Costs above; (viii) costs, fines or penalties incurred due to Landlord's violation of any Law; and (ix) any costs or expenses incurred with respect to Hazardous Materials, except to the extent the presence of such Hazardous Materials in, on, under or about the Premises or Property was caused by Tenant or Tenant's employees, agents, contractors or invitees. (4) "Taxes" means: all real property taxes and general, special or district assessments or other governmental impositions, of whatever kind, nature or origin, imposed on or by reason of the ownership or use of the Property; governmental charges, fees or assessments for transit or traffic mitigation (including area-wide traffic improvement assessments and transportation system management fees), housing, police, fire or other governmental service or purported benefits to the Property; personal property taxes assessed on the personal property of Landlord used in the operation of the Property; service payments in lieu of taxes and taxes and assessments of every kind and nature whatsoever levied or assessed in addition to, in lieu of or in substitution for existing or additional real or personal property taxes on the Property or the personal property described above; any increases in the foregoing caused by changes in assessed valuation, tax rate or other factors or circumstances; and the reasonable cost of contesting by appropriate proceedings the amount or validity of any taxes, assessments or charges described above. To the extent paid by Tenant or other tenants as "Tenant's Taxes" (as defined in Section 8 - Tenant's Taxes), "Tenant's Taxes" shall be excluded from Taxes. The term "Taxes" shall not include any inheritance taxes or federal or state income taxes of Landlord. (5) "Tenant's Share" means the Rentable Area of the Premises divided by the total Rentable Area of the Building, as set forth in the Basic Lease Information. If the Rentable Area of the Building is changed or the Rentable Area of the Premises is changed by Tenant's leasing of additional space hereunder or for any other reason, Tenant's Share shall be adjusted accordingly. 6 (b) Additional Rent. --------------- (1) Tenant shall pay Landlord as "Additional Rent" for each calendar year or portion thereof during the Term Tenant's Share of the sum of (x) the amount (if any) by which Operating Costs for the period exceed Base Operating Costs, and (y) the amount (if any) by which Taxes for such period exceed Base Taxes. (2) Prior to the end of the Base Year and each calendar year thereafter, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord's estimate of Operating Costs, Taxes and Tenant's Additional Rent for the following calendar year. Commencing on the first day of January of each calendar year and continuing on the first day of every month thereafter in such year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one-twelfth (1/12th) of the estimated Additional Rent. If Landlord thereafter estimates that Operating Costs or Taxes for such year will vary from Landlord's prior estimate, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, revise the estimate for such year (and Additional Rent shall thereafter be payable based on the revised estimate). (3) As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of the Base Year and each calendar year thereafter, Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement with respect to such year, showing Operating Costs, Taxes and Additional Rent for the year, and the total payments made by Tenant with respect thereto. Unless Tenant raises any objections to Landlord's statement within ninety (90) days after receipt of the same, such statement shall conclusively be deemed correct and Tenant shall have no right thereafter to dispute such statement or any item therein or the computation of Additional Rent based thereon. If Tenant does object to such statement, Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable verification of the figures shown on the statement and the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputes. Any objection of Tenant to Landlord's statement and resolution of any dispute shall not postpone the time for payment of any amounts due Tenant or Landlord based on Landlord's statement, nor shall any failure of Landlord to deliver Landlord's statement in a timely manner relieve Tenant of Tenant's obligation to pay any amounts due Landlord based on Landlord's statement. (4) If Tenant's Additional Rent as finally determined for the year exceeds the total payments made by Tenant on account thereof, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within ten (10) days of Tenant's receipt of Landlord's statement. If the total payments made by Tenant on account thereof exceed Tenant's Additional Rent as finally determined for the year, Tenant's excess payment shall be credited toward the rent next due from Tenant under this Lease. For any partial calendar year at the beginning or end of the Term, Additional Rent shall be prorated on the basis of a 365-day year by computing Tenant's Share of the increases in Operating-Costs and Taxes for the entire year and then prorating such amount for the number of days during such year included in the Tenn. Notwithstanding the termination of this Lease, Landlord shall pay to Tenant or Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as the case may be, within ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's final statement for the calendar year in which this Lease terminates, the difference between Tenant's Additional Rent for that year, as finally determined by Landlord, and the total amount previously paid by Tenant on account thereof. If for any reason Base Taxes or Taxes for any year during the Term are reduced, refunded or otherwise changed, Tenant's Additional Rent shall be adjusted accordingly. If Taxes are 7 temporarily reduced as a result of space in the Building being leased to a tenant that is entitled to an exemption from property taxes or other taxes, then for purposes of determining Additional Rent for each year in which Taxes are reduced by any such exemption, Taxes for such year shall be calculated on the basis of the amount the Taxes for the year would have been in the absence of the exemption. The obligations of Landlord to refund any overpayment of Additional Rent and of Tenant to pay any Additional Rent not previously paid shall survive the expiration of the Term. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if there is at any time a decrease in Taxes below the amount of the Taxes for the Base Year, then for purposes of calculating Additional Rent for the year in which such decrease occurs and all subsequent periods, Base Taxes shall be reduced to equal the Taxes for the year in which the decrease occurs. 3.3 Payment of Rent. All amounts payable or reimbursable by Tenant under --------------- this Lease, including late charges and interest, shall constitute rent and shall be payable and recoverable as rent in the manner provided in this Lease. All sums payable to Landlord on demand under the terms of this Lease shall be payable within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord of the amounts due. All rent shall be paid without offset, recoupment or deduction in lawful money of the United States of America to Landlord at Landlord's Address for Payment of Rent as set forth in the Basic Lease Information, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate. 4. SECURITY DEPOSIT. On execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the sum set forth in the Basic Lease Information, in cash, as security for the performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease. Landlord may (but shall have no obligation to) use the security deposit or any portion thereof to cure any Event of Default under this Lease or to compensate Landlord for any damage Landlord incurs as a result of Tenant's failure to perform any of Tenant's obligations hereunder. In such event Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord an amount sufficient to replenish the security deposit to the sum initially deposited with Landlord. At the expiration or termination of this Lease, Landlord shall return to Tenant such portion of the security deposit or the balance thereof then held by Landlord and not applied as provided above. Landlord may commingle the security deposit with Landlord's general and other funds, and Landlord shall not be required to pay interest on the security deposit to Tenant. The immediately preceding sentence shall not apply to any amounts drawn down under the Letter of Credit (defined in Paragraph 2 of the Additional Provisions Rider attached hereto as Exhibit D). 5.

Tenant shall deliver to Landlord prior to delivery to any governmental agency, or promptly after receipt from any such agency, copies of all permits, manifests, closure or remedial action plans, notices, and all other documents relating to the Handling by Tenant of Hazardous Materials at or about the Premises or Property. If any lien attaches to the Premises or the Property in connection with or as a result of the Handling by Tenant of Hazardous Materials, and Tenant does not cause the same to be released, by payment, bonding or otherwise, within ten (10) days after the attachment thereof, Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation to cause the same to be released and any sums expended by Landlord in connection therewith shall be payable by Tenant on demand.

ALTERATIONS. 6.1 Tenant shall not make any alterations, improvements or changes to the Premises (including installation of any security system or telephone or data communication wiring), other than the Tenant Improvements ("Alterations"), without Landlord's prior Written consent (provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord's prior approval for minor, non-structural Alterations that do not affect any of the Building Systems, are not visible from the exterior of the Premises, and cost less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00), so long as Tenant gives Landlord notice of the proposed Alterations at least ten (10) days prior to commencement of the Alterations and complies with all of the following provisions, except that Tenant shall not e required to obtain Landlord's approval of any plans or specifications therefor). Any such Alterations shall be completed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense: (i) with due diligence, in a good and workmanlike manner, using new materials; (ii) in compliance with plans and specifications approved (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) by Landlord; (iii) in compliance with the construction roles and regulations promulgated by Landlord from time to time; (iv) in accordance with all applicable Laws (including all work, whether structural or non-structural, inside or outside the Premises, required to comply fully with all applicable Laws and necessitated by Tenant's work); and (v) subject to all conditions which Landlord may in Landlord's discretion impose.

Landlord's right to review and approve (or withhold approval of) Tenant's plans, drawings, specifications, contractor(s) and other aspects of construction work proposed by Tenant is intended solely to protect Landlord, the Property and Landlord's interests. No approval or consent by Landlord shall be deemed or construed to be a representation or warranty by Landlord as to the adequacy, sufficiency, fitness or suitability thereof or compliance thereof with applicable Laws or other requirements. Except as otherwise provided in Landlord's consent, all Alterations shall upon installation become part of the realty and be the property of Landlord. 11 6.2 Before making any Alterations, Tenant shall submit to Landlord for Landlord's prior approval reasonably detailed final plans and specifications prepared by a licensed architect or engineer, a copy of the construction contract, including the name of the contractor and all subcontractors proposed by Tenant to make the Alterations and a copy of the contractor's license.

Tenant shall obtain all applicable permits, authorizations and governmental approvals and deliver copies of the same to Landlord before commencement of any Alterations. 6.3 Tenant shall keep the Premises and the Property free and clear of all liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by Tenant. If any such lien attaches to the Premises or the Property, and Tenant does not cause the same to be released by payment, bonding or otherwise within ten (10) days after the attachment thereof, Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation to cause the same to be released, and any sums expended by Landlord in connection therewith shall be payable by Tenant on demand with interest thereon from the date of expenditure by Landlord at the Interest Rate (as defined in Section 15.2 - Interest). Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) days' notice prior to the commencement of any Alterations and cooperate with Landlord in posting and maintaining notices of non-responsibility in connection therewith. 6.4 Subject to the provisions of Section 5 - Use and Compliance with Laws and the foregoing provisions of this Section, Tenant may install and maintain furnishings, equipment, movable partitions, business equipment and other trade fixtures ("Trade Fixtures") in the Premises, provided that the Trade Fixtures do not become an integral part of the Premises or the Building.

Landlord shall be under no obligation to inspect the Premises. Tenant shall promptly report in writing to Landlord 12 any defective condition known to Tenant which Landlord is required to repair. As a material part of the consideration for this Lease, Tenant hereby waives any benefits of any applicable existing or future Law, including the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942, that allows a tenant to make repairs at its landlord's expense. 7.3 Provided that Tenant's rights and benefits are not materially, adversely affected thereby, Landlord hereby reserves the right, at any time and from time to time, without liability to Tenant, and without constituting an eviction, constructive or otherwise, or entitling Tenant to any abatement of rent or to terminate this Lease or otherwise releasing Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease: (a) To make alterations, additions, repairs, improvements to or in or to decrease the size of area of, all or any part of the Building, the fixtures and equipment therein, and the Building Systems (provided, however, that Landlord shall not decrease the size of area of the Premises except to the extent required to comply with applicable legal requirements or regulations, and then only to the minimum extent necessary); (b) To change the Building's name or street address; (c) To install and maintain any and all signs on the exterior and interior of the Building; (d) To reduce, increase, enclose or otherwise change at any time and from time to time the size, number, location, lay-out and nature of the common areas and other tenancies and premises in the Property and to create additional rentable areas through use or enclosure of common areas; and (e) If any governmental authority promulgates or revises any Law or imposes mandatory or voluntary controls or guidelines on Landlord or the Property relating to the use or conservation of energy or utilities or the reduction of automobile or other emissions or reduction or management of traffic or parking on the Property (collectively "Controls"), to comply with such Controls, whether mandatory or voluntary, or make any alterations to the Property related thereto. 8. TENANT'S TAXES. "Tenant's Taxes" shall mean (a) all taxes, assessments, license fees and other governmental charges or impositions levied or assessed against or with respect to Tenant's personal property or Trade Fixtures in the Premises, whether any such imposition is levied directly against Tenant or levied against Landlord or the Property, (b) all rental, excise, sales or transaction privilege taxes arising out of this Lease (excluding, however, state and federal personal or corporate income taxes measured by the income of Landlord from all sources and excluding inheritance taxes) imposed by any taxing authority upon Landlord or upon Landlord's receipt of any rent payable by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease ("Rental Tax"), and (c) any increase in Taxes attributable to inclusion of a value placed on Tenant's personal property, Trade Fixtures or Alterations. Tenant shall pay any Rental Tax to Landlord in addition to and at the same time as Base Rent is payable under this Lease, and shall pay all other Tenant's Taxes before delinquency (and, at Landlord's request, shall finish Landlord satisfactory evidence thereof). If Landlord pays Tenant's Taxes or any portion thereof, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for the 13 amount of such payment, together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date of Landlord's payment to the date of Tenant's reimbursement. 9. UTILITIES AND SERVICES. 9.1 Description of Services.

(b) If the temperature otherwise maintained in any portion of the Premises by the HVAC systems of the Building is affected as a result of (i) any lights, machines or equipment used by Tenant in the Premises, or (ii) the occupancy of the Premises by more than one person per 150 square feet of rentable area, then Landlord shall, following reasonable notice to Tenant and thirty (30) days for Tenant to correct the situation, have the right to install any machinery or equipment reasonably necessary to restore the temperature, including modifications to the standard air-conditioning equipment. The cost of any such equipment and modifications, including the cost of installation and any additional cost of operation and maintenance of the same, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. (c) If Tenant's usage of electricity exceeds the Building's Standard Electrical Usage as set forth in the Basic Lease Information, Landlord may determine the amount of such excess use by any reasonable means (including the installation, following reasonable notice to Tenant and thirty (30) days for Tenant to correct the situation, at Landlord's request but at Tenant's expense of a separate meter or other measuring device) and charge Tenant for the cost of such excess usage. In addition, Landlord may impose a reasonable charge for the use of any additional or unusual janitorial services required by Tenant because of any unusual Tenant Improvements or Alterations, the carelessness of Tenant or the nature of Tenant's business (including hours of operation). 9.3 Interruption of Services. In the event of an interruption in or failure ------------------------ or inability to provide any services or utilities to the Premises or Building for any reason (a "Service Failure"), such Service Failure shall not, regardless of its duration, impose upon Landlord any liability whatsoever, constitute an eviction of Tenant, constructive or otherwise, entitle Tenant to an abatement of rent or to terminate this Lease or otherwise release Tenant from any of Tenant's 14 obligations under this Lease. Tenant hereby waives any benefits of any applicable existing or future Law, including the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(1), permitting the termination of this Lease due to such interruption, failure or inability. 10.

Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for such damage and the cost and expense of defending against claims relating to such damage, except that Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against any claims, actions, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in defending against the same ("Claims") for such damages, to the extent the same are caused by the willful or negligent acts or omissions of Landlord or its employees, agents, contractors, invitees or authorized representatives.

Tenant's liability insurance policy or policies shall: (i) include premises and operations liability coverage, products and completed operations liability coverage, broad form property damage coverage including completed operations, blanket contractual liability coverage including, to the maximum extent 15 possible, coverage for the indemnification obligations of Tenant under this Lease, and personal and advertising injury coverage; (ii) provide that the insurance company has the duty to defend all insureds under the policy; (iii) provide that defense costs are paid in addition to and do not deplete any of the policy limits; (iv) cover liabilities arising out of or incurred in connection with Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises or the Property; and (v) emend coverage to cover liability for the actions of Tenant's Representatives and Visitors. (b) Tenant shall at all times maintain in effect with respect to any Alterations and Tenant's Trade Fixtures and personal property, commercial property insurance providing coverage, at a minimum, for "broad form" perils, to the extent of 80% of the full replacement cost of covered property. Tenant may carry such insurance under a blanket policy, provided that such policy provides equivalent coverage to a separate policy. During the Term, the proceeds from any such policies of insurance shall be used for the repair or replacement of the Alterations, Trade Fixtures and personal property so insured. Landlord shall be provided coverage under such insurance to the extent of its insurable interest and, if requested by Landlord, both Landlord and Tenant shall sign all documents reasonably necessary or proper in connection with the settlement of any claim or loss under such insurance. Landlord will have no obligation to carry insurance on any Alterations or on Tenant's Trade Fixtures or personal property. (c) Each policy of insurance required under this Section shall: (i) be in a form, and written by an insurer, reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (ii) be maintained at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and (iii) require at least thirty (30) days' written notice to Landlord prior to any cancellation, nonrenewal or modification of insurance coverage.

Tenant shall provide to Landlord, upon request, evidence that the insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Section, including any endorsement effecting the additional insured status, is in full force and effect and that premiums therefor have been paid. (d) Tenant shall increase the mounts of insurance as required by any Mortgagee, and, not more frequently than once every three (3) years, as recommended by Landlord's insurance broker, if, in the reasonable opinion of either of them, the amount of insurance then required under this Lease is not adequate. Any limits set forth in this Lease on the amount or type of coverage required by Tenant's insurance shall not limit the liability of Tenant under this Lease. (e) Each policy of liability insurance required by this Section shall: (i) contain a cross liability endorsement or separation of insureds clause; (ii) provide that any waiver of subrogation rights or release prior to a loss does not void coverage; (iii) provide that it is primary to and not contributing with, any policy of insurance carried by Landlord covering the same loss; (iv) provide that any failure to comply with the reporting provisions shall not affect coverage provided to Landlord, its partners, property managers and Mortgagees; and (v) name Landlord, its partners, the Property Manager identified in the Basic Lease Information (the "Property Manager"), and such other parties in interest as Landlord may from time to time reasonably designate to Tenant in 16 writing, as additional insureds. Such additional insureds shall be provided the same extent of coverage as provided to Tenant under such policies. All endorsements effecting such additional insured status shall be acceptable to Landlord and shall be at least as broad as additional insured endorsement form number CG 20 11 11 85 promulgated by the Insurance Services Office. (f) Prior to occupancy of the Premises by Tenant, and not less than thirty (30) days prior to expiration of any policy thereafter, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord a certificate of insurance reflecting that the insurance required by this Section is in force, accompanied by an endorsement showing the required additional insureds satisfactory to Owner in substance and form. Notwithstanding the requirements of this paragraph, Tenant shall at Landlord's request provide to Landlord a certified copy of each insurance policy required to be in force at any time pursuant to the requirements of this Lease or its Exhibits. 11.2 Landlord's Insurance. During the Term, Landlord shall maintain in -------------------- effect insurance on the Building against "broad form" perils (to the extent such coverages are available), with responsible insurers, insuring the Building and the Tenant Improvements in an amount equal to at least eighty percent (80%) of the replacement cost thereof, excluding land, foundations, footings and underground installations. Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, carry insurance against additional perils and/or in greater amounts. 11.3 Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary --------------------- in this Lease, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive any right of recovery against the other and the partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors and authorized representatives of the other for any loss or damage that is covered by any policy of property insurance maintained by either party (or would normally be covered by any policy of insurance required by this Lease to be maintained) with respect to the Premises or the Property or any operation therein. If any such policy of insurance relating to this Lease or to the Premises or the Property does not permit the foregoing waiver or if the coverage under any such policy would be invalidated as a result of such waiver, the party maintaining such policy shall obtain from the insurer under such policy a waiver of all right of recovery by way of subrogation against either party in connection with any claim, loss or damage covered by such policy. 12. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. 12.1 Landlord's Duty to Repair. ------------------------- (a) If all or a substantial part of the Premises are rendered untenantable or inaccessible by damage to all or any part of the Property from fire or other casualty then, unless either party is entitled to and elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to Sections 12.2 - Landlord's Right to Terminate and 12.3 - Tenant's Right to Terminate, Landlord shall, at its expense, use reasonable efforts to repair and restore the Premises and/or the Property, as the case may be, to substantially their former condition to the extent permitted by then applicable Laws; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord have any obligation for repair or restoration beyond the extent of insurance proceeds received by Landlord for such repair or restoration (plus any deductible amount), or for any of Tenant's personal property, Trade Fixtures or Alterations. 17 (b) If Landlord is required or elects to repair damage to the Premises and/or the Property, this Lease shall continue in effect. Tenant's Base Rent and Additional Rent from the date of the casualty through the date of substantial completion of the repair (or termination of this Lease pursuant to this Article 12) shall be abated with regard to any portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using by reason of such damage or its repair. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant's business or property arising from fire or other casualty or by reason of any repairs to any part of the Property necessitated by such casualty. 12.2 Landlord's Right to Terminate. Landlord may elect to terminate this ----------------------------- Lease following damage by fire or other casualty under the following circumstances: (a) If, in the reasonable judgement of Landlord, the Premises and the Property cannot be substantially repaired and restored under applicable Laws within one (1) year from the date of the casualty; (b) If, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, adequate proceeds (with the addition of any deductible amount) are not, for any reason, made available to Landlord from Landlord's insurance policies (and/or from Landlord's funds made available for such purpose, at Landlord's sole option) to make the required repairs; (c) If the Building is damaged or destroyed to the extent that, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, the cost to repair and restore the Building would exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the full replacement cost of the Building, whether or not the Premises are at all damaged or destroyed; or (d) If the fire or other casualty occurs during the last year of the Term. If any of the circumstances described in subparagraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 12.2 occur or arise, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of that fact as soon as reasonably practicable, but in all events within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the date of the casualty and in such notice Landlord shall also advise Tenant whether Landlord has elected to terminate this Lease as provided above. 12.3 Tenant's Right to Terminate.

Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive the provisions of ------ California Civil Code Sections 1932(2), 1933(4) and any other applicable existing or future Law permitting the termination of a lease agreement in the event of damage or destruction under any circumstances other than as provided in Sections 12.2 - Landlord's Right to Terminate and 12.3 - Tenant's Right to Terminate. 13.

(c) "Date of Condemnation" shall mean the earlier of the date that title to the property taken is vested in the Condemnor or the date the Condemnor has the right to possession of the property being condemned. 13.2 Effect on Lease. --------------- (a) If the Premises are totally taken by Condemnation, this Lease shall terminate as of the Date of Condemnation. If a portion but not all of the Premises is taken by Condemnation, this Lease shall remain in effect; provided, however, that if the portion of the Premises remaining after the Condemnation will be unsuitable for Tenant's continued use, then upon notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies Tenant of the Condemnation, Tenant may terminate this Lease effective as of the Date of Condemnation. (b) If twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Land or of the Parking Facility or of the floor area in the Building is taken by Condemnation, or if as a result of any Condemnation the Building is no longer reasonably suitable for use as an office building, whether or not any portion of the Premises is taken, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease, effective as of the Date of Condemnation, by notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the Date of Condemnation. (c) If all or a portion of the Premises is temporarily taken by a Condemnor for a period not extending beyond the end of the Term, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. 19 13.3 Restoration. If this Lease is not terminated as provided in Section ----------- 13.2 - Effect on Lease, Landlord, at its expense, shall diligently proceed to repair and restore the Premises to substantially its former condition (to the extent permitted by then applicable Laws) and/or repair and restore the Building to an architecturally complete office building; provided, however, that Landlord's obligations to so repair and restore shall be limited to the amount of any Award received by Landlord and not required to be paid to any Mortgagee (as defined in Section 20.2 below).

If any portion of the Premises is ------------------------------- taken in a Condemnation or is rendered permanently untenantable by repairs necessitated by the Condemnation, and this Lease is not terminated, the Base Rent and Additional Rent payable under this Lease shall be proportionally reduced as of the Date of Condemnation based upon the percentage of rentable square feet in the Premises so taken or rendered permanently untenantable. In addition, if this Lease remains in effect following a Condemnation and Landlord proceeds to repair and restore the Premises, the Base Rent and Additional Rent payable under this Lease shall be abated during the period of such repair or restoration to the extent such repairs prevent Tenant's use of the Premises. 13.5 Awards. Any Award made shall be paid to Landlord, and Tenant hereby ------ assigns to Landlord, and waives all interest in or claim to, any such Award, including any claim for the value of the unexpired Term; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to receive, or to prosecute a separate claim for, an Award for a temporary taking of the Premises or a portion thereof by a Condemnor where this Lease is not terminated (to the extent such Award relates to the unexpired Term), or an Award or portion thereof separately designated for relocation expenses or the interruption of or damage to Tenant's business or as compensation for Tenant's personal property, Trade Fixtures or Alterations. 13.6 Waiver.

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. 14.1 Landlord's Consent Required. Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, --------------------------- pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest therein, or sublet or license or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises or any part thereof by or for the benefit of anyone other than Tenant, or in any other manner transfer all or any part of Tenant's interests under this Lease (each and all a "Transfer"), without the prior written consent of Landlord (except as provided in Section 14.9 below), which (subject to the other provisions of this Section 14) shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Tenant is a business entity, any direct or indirect transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of the ownership interest of the entity (whether in a single transaction or in the aggregate through more than one transaction) shall be deemed a Transfer. Notwithstanding any provision in 20 this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber all or any portion of Tenant's interest under this Lease. 14.2 Reasonable Consent. ------------------ (a) If Tenant complies with the following conditions, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to the subletting of the Premises or any portion thereof or the assignment of this Lease. Prior to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall submit in writing to Landlord (i) the name and legal composition of the proposed assignee, subtenant, user or other transferee (each a "Transferee"); (ii) the nature of the business proposed to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) a current balance sheet, income statements for the last two years and such other reasonable financial and other information concerning the proposed Transferee as Landlord may request; and (iv) a copy of the proposed assignment, sublease or other agreement governing the proposed Transfer. Within fifteen (15) Business Days after Landlord receives all such information it shall notify Tenant whether it approves or disapproves such Transfer or if it elects to proceed under Section 14.7 - Landlord's Right to Space. (b) The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that, among other circumstances for which Landlord could reasonably withhold consent to a proposed Transfer, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold consent where (i) the proposed Transferee does not intend itself to occupy the entire portion of the Premises assigned or sublet, (ii) Landlord reasonably disapproves of the Transferee's business operating ability or history, reputation or creditworthiness or the character of the business to be conducted by the Transferee at the Premises, (iii) the Transferee is a governmental agency or unit or an existing tenant in the Project, (iv) the proposed Transfer would violate any "exclusive" rights of any tenants in the Project, (v) the rental and other consideration payable by the Transferee is less than that currently being paid by tenants under new leases of comparable space in the Building, or (vi) Landlord otherwise determines that the proposed Transfer would have the effect of decreasing the value of the Building or increasing the expenses associated with operating, maintaining and repairing the Property. In no event may Tenant publicly offer or advertise all or any portion of the Premises for assignment or sublease at a rental less than that then sought by Landlord for a direct lease (non-sublease) of comparable space in the Project. 14.3 Excess Consideration. If Landlord consents to the Transfer, Tenant -------------------- shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, within ten (10) days after receipt by Tenant, seventy-five percent (75%) of any consideration paid by the Transferee for the Transfer, including, in the case of a sublease, the excess of the rent and other consideration paid the subtenant over the amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder applicable to the subleased space. 14.4 No Release Of Tenant. No consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall -------------------- relieve Tenant of any obligation to be performed by Tenant under this Lease, whether occurring before or after such consent, assignment, subletting or other Transfer. Each Transferee shall be jointly and severally liable with Tenant (and Tenant shall be jointly and severally liable with each Transferee) for the payment of rent (or, in the case of a sublease, rent in the amount set forth in the sublease) and for the performance of all other terms and provisions of this Lease. The consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall not relieve Tenant or any such Transferee from the obligation to obtain Landlord's express prior written consent to any subsequent Transfer by Tenant or any Transferee. 21 The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any Transfer. 14.5 Expenses and Attorneys' Fees. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand ---------------------------- all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Landlord in connection with reviewing or consenting to any proposed Transfer (including any request for consent to, or any waiver of Landlord's rights in connection with, any security interest in any of Tenant's property at the Premises). 14.6 Effectiveness of Transfer. Prior to the date on which any permitted ------------------------- Transfer (whether or not requiting Landlord's consent) becomes effective, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a counterpart of the fully executed Transfer document and Landlord's standard form of Consent to Assignment or Consent to Sublease executed by Tenant and the Transferee in which each of Tenant and the Transferee confirms its obligations pursuant to this Lease. Failure or refusal of a Transferee to execute any such instrument shall not release or discharge the Transferee from liability as provided herein. The voluntary, involuntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation by Landlord and Tenant, shall not work a merger, and any such surrender or cancellation shall, at the option of Landlord, either terminate all or any existing subleases or operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subleases. 14.7 Landlord's Right to Space. Notwithstanding any of the above provisions ------------------------- of this Section to the contrary, if Tenant notifies Landlord that it desires to enter into a Transfer, Landlord, in lieu of consenting to such Transfer, may elect (x) in the case of an assignment or a sublease of the entire Premises, to terminate this Lease in its entirety, or (y) in the case of a sublease of less than the entire Premises for a term substantially equal to the remaining Term of this Lease, to terminate this Lease as it relates to the space proposed to be subleased by Tenant. In such event, this Lease will terminate (or the space proposed to be subleased will be removed from the Premises subject to this Lease and the Base Rent and Tenant's Share under this Lease shall be proportionately reduced) on the date the Transfer was proposed to be effective, and Landlord may lease such space to any party, including the prospective Transferee identified by Tenant. 14.8 Assignment of Sublease Rents. Tenant hereby absolutely and irrevocably ---------------------------- assigns to Landlord any and all rights to receive rent and other consideration from any sublease and agrees that Landlord, as assignee or as attorney-in-fact for Tenant for purposes hereof, or a receiver for Tenant appointed on Landlord's application may (but shall not be obligated to) collect such rents and other consideration and apply the same toward Tenant's obligations to Landlord under this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord grants to Tenant at all times prior to occurrence of any breach or default by Tenant a revocable license to collect such rents (which license shall automatically and without notice be and be deemed to have been revoked and terminated immediately upon any Event of Default). 14.9 Transfer to Affiliate. Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the --------------------- Premises or any portion thereof, without Landlord's consent, to any corporation or other entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant, or to any corporation or other entity resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant, or to any person or entity that acquires 22 substantially all the assets of Tenant as a going concern (collectively, an "Affiliate"), provided that the Affiliate assumes in writing all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease. 15. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES. 15.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall ----------------- constitute an "Event of Default" by Tenant: (a) Tenant fails to make any payment of rent when due, or any amount required to replenish the security deposit as provided in Section 4 above, if payment in full is not received by Landlord within three (3) business days after written notice that it is due. (b) Tenant abandons the Premises and fails to pay rent. (c) Tenant fails to deliver any estoppel certificate requested by Landlord within the period described in subsection 21.1 below. (d) Tenant violates the restrictions on Transfer set forth in Section 14 -Assignment and Subletting. (e) Tenant ceases doing business as a going concern; makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; is adjudicated an insolvent, files a petition (or files an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition) seeking relief under any under any state or federal bankruptcy or other statute, law or regulation affecting creditors' rights; all or substantially all of Tenant's assets are subject to judicial seizure or attachment and are not released within 30 days, or Tenant consents to or acquiesces in the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator for Tenant or for all or any substantial part of Tenant's assets. (f) Tenant fails, within ninety (90) days after the commencement of any proceedings against Tenant seeking relief under any state or federal bankruptcy or other statute, law or regulation affecting creditors' rights, to have such proceedings dismissed, or Tenant fails, within ninety (90) days after an appointment, without Tenant's consent or acquiescence, of any trustee, receiver or liquidator for Tenant or for all or any substantial part of Tenant's assets, to have such appointment vacated. (g) Tenant fails to perform or comply with any provision of this Lease other than those described in (a) through (f) above, and does not fully cure such failure within fifteen (15) days after notice to Tenant or, if such failure cannot be cured within such fifteen (15)-day period, Tenant fails within such fifteen (15)-day period to commence, and thereafter diligently proceed with, all actions necessary to cure such failure as soon as reasonably possible but in all events within ninety (90) days after such notice; provided, however, that if Landlord in Landlord's reasonable judgment determines that such failure cannot or will not be cured by Tenant within such ninety (90) days, then such failure shall constitute an Event of Default immediately upon such notice to Tenant. 23 15.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord shall -------- have the following remedies, which shall not be exclusive but shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedies now or hereafter allowed by law: (a) Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises at any time by written notice to Tenant, and such termination of Tenant's right to possession shall terminate the Lease. Tenant expressly acknowledges that in the absence of such written notice from Landlord, no other act of Landlord, including re-entry into the Premises, efforts to relet the Premises, reletting of the Premises for Tenant's account, storage of Tenant's personal property and Trade Fixtures, acceptance of keys to the Premises from Tenant or exercise of any other rights and remedies under this Section, shall constitute an acceptance of Tenant's surrender of the Premises or constitute a termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession of the Premises. Upon such termination in writing of Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, as herein provided, this Lease shall terminate and Landlord shall be entitled to recover damages from Tenant as provided in California Civil Code Section 1951.2 and any other applicable existing or future Law providing for recovery of damages for such breach, including the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the rent which would be payable by Tenant hereunder for the remainder of the Term after the date of the award of damages, including Additional Rent as reasonably estimated by Landlord, exceeds the amount of such rental loss as Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, discounted at the discount rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco for member banks at the time of the award plus one percent (1%). (b) Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession.. (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant's breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). (c) Landlord may cure the Event of Default at Tenant's expense. If Landlord pays any sum or incurs any expense in curing the Event of Default, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for the amount of such payment or expense with interest at the Interest Rate from the date the sum is paid or the expense is incurred until Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant. (d) Landlord may remove all Tenant's property from the Premises, and such property may be stored by Landlord in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the sole cost and for the account of Tenant. If Landlord does not elect to store any or all of Tenant's property left in the Premises, Landlord may consider such property to be abandoned by Tenant, and Landlord may thereupon dispose of such property in any manner deemed appropriate by Landlord. Any proceeds realized by Landlord on the disposal of any such property shall be applied first to offset all expenses of storage and sale, then credited against Tenant's outstanding obligations to Landlord under this Lease, and any balance remaining after satisfaction of all obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall be delivered to Tenant. 16. LATE CHARGE AND INTEREST. 16.1 Late Charge. If any payment of rent is not received by Landlord when ----------- due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand as a late charge an additional amount equal to four percent (4%) 24 of the overdue payment. A late charge shall not be imposed more than once on any particular installment not paid when due, but imposition of a late charge on any payment not made when due does not eliminate or supersede late charges imposed on other (prior) payments not made when due or preclude imposition of a late charge on other installments or payments not made when due. 16.2 Interest. In addition to the late charges referred to above, which are -------- intended to defray Landlord's costs resulting from late payments, any payment from Tenant to Landlord not paid when due shall at Landlord's option bear interest from the date due until paid to Landlord by Tenant at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum or the maximum lawful rate that Landlord may charge to Tenant under applicable laws, whichever is less (the "Interest Rate"). Acceptance of any late charge and/or interest shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue sum or prevent Landlord from exercising any of its other rights and remedies under this Lease. 17. WAIVER. No provisions of this Lease shall be deemed waived by either party unless such waiver is in a writing signed by the waiving party. The waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision of this Lease. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of one party upon any default by the other party shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Landlord's acceptance of any payments of rent due under this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of any default by Tenant under this Lease (including Tenant's recurrent failure to timely pay rent) other than Tenant's nonpayment of the accepted sums, and no endorsement or statement on any check or accompanying any check or payment shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction. The consent to or approval of any act requiring consent or approval of the other party shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary consent to or approval of any subsequent act requiting consent. 18. ENTRY, INSPECTION AND CLOSURE. Upon reasonable oral or written notice to Tenant (and without notice in emergencies), Landlord and its authorized representatives may enter the Premises at all reasonable times to determine whether the Premises are in good condition, to determine whether Tenant is complying with its obligations under this Lease, to perform any maintenance or repair of the Premises or the Building that Landlord has the right or obligation to perform, to install or repair improvements for other tenants where access to the Premises is required for such installation or repair, to serve, post or keep posted any notices required or allowed under the provisions of this Lease, to show the Premises to prospective brokers, agents, buyers, transferees, Mortgagees or tenants, or to do any other act or thing necessary for the safety or preservation of the Premises or the Building. When reasonably necessary Landlord may temporarily close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators or other facilities in the Building without liability to Tenant by reason of such closure. Landlord shall conduct its activities under this Section in a manner that will minimize inconvenience to Tenant without incurring additional expense to Landlord. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to an abatement of rent on account of any entry by Landlord, and Landlord shall not be liable in any manner for any inconvenience, loss of business or other damage to Tenant or other persons arising out of Landlord's entry on the Premises in accordance with this Section. No action by Landlord pursuant to this paragraph shall constitute an eviction of Tenant, constructive or otherwise, entitle Tenant to an abatement of rent or to terminate this Lease or otherwise release Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease. 25 19. SURRENDER AND HOLDING OVER. 19.1 Surrender. Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant --------- shall surrender the Premises and all Tenant Improvements and Alterations to Landlord broom-clean and in their original condition, except for reasonable wear and tear, damage from casualty or condemnation and any changes resulting from approved Alterations; provided, however, that prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease Tenant shall remove all telephone and other cabling installed in the Building by Tenant and remove from the Premises all Tenant's personal property, Trade Fixtures and Alterations that Tenant has the right or is required by Landlord to remove under the provisions of this Lease, and repair any damage caused by such removal. If such removal is not completed before the expiration or termination of the Term, Landlord shall have the right (but no obligation) to remove the same, and Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand for all costs of removal and storage thereof and for the rental value of the Premises for the period from the end of the Term through the end of the time reasonably required for such removal. Landlord shall also have the right to retain or dispose of all or any portion of such property if Tenant does not pay all such costs and retrieve the property within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Landlord (in which event title to all such property described in Landlord's notice shall be transferred to and vest in Landlord). Tenant waives all Claims against Landlord for any damage or loss to Tenant resulting from Landlord's removal, storage, retention, or disposition of any such property. Upon expiration or termination of this Lease or of Tenant's possession, whichever is earliest, Tenant shall surrender all keys to the Premises or any other part of the Building and shall deliver to Landlord all keys for or make known to Landlord the combination of locks on all safes, cabinets and vaults that may be located in the Premises. Tenant's obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. 19.2 Holding Over. If Tenant (directly or through any Transferee or other ------------ successor-in-interest of Tenant) remains in possession of the Premises after the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant's continued possession shall be on the basis of a tenancy at the sufferance of Landlord. In such event, Tenant shall continue to comply with or perform all the terms and obligations of Tenant under this Lease, except that the monthly Base Rent during Tenant's holding over shall be twice the Base Rent payable in the last full month prior to the termination hereof. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after such termination shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease; and nothing contained in this provision shall be deemed to waive Landlord's right of re-entry or any other right hereunder or at law. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against all Claims arising or resulting directly or indirectly from Tenant's failure to timely surrender the Premises, including (i) any rent payable by or any loss, cost, or damages claimed by any prospective tenant of the Premises, and (ii) Landlord's damages as a result of such prospective-tenant rescinding or refusing to enter into the prospective lease of the Premises by reason of such failure to timely surrender the Premises. 20. ENCUMBRANCES. 20.1 Subordination. This Lease is expressly made subject and subordinate to ------------- any mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease, underlying lease or like encumbrance affecting any part of the Property or any interest of Landlord therein which is now existing or hereafter executed or recorded ("Encumbrance"); provided, however, that such subordination shall only be effective, as 26 to future Encumbrances, if the holder of the Encumbrance agrees that this Lease shall survive the termination of the Encumbrance by lapse of time, foreclosure or otherwise so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. Provided the conditions of the preceding sentence are satisfied, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, within ten (10) days after written request therefor by Landlord and in a form reasonably requested by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing the subordination of this Lease with respect to any such Encumbrance and the nondisturbance agreement of the holder of any such Encumbrance.

Tenant agrees to give any holder of any -------------------- Encumbrance covering any part of the Property ("Mortgagee"), by registered mail, a copy of any notice of default served upon Landlord, provided that prior to such notice Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of notice of assignment of rents and leases, or otherwise) of the address of such Mortgagee. If Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days from the effective date of such notice of default, then the Mortgagee shall have an additional thirty (30) days within which to cure such default or if such default cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary to cure such default (including the time necessary to foreclose or otherwise terminate its Encumbrance, if necessary to effect such cure), and this Lease shall not be terminated so long as such remedies are being diligently pursued. 21.

Tenant KG ----- Landlord JH ----- 5 Exhibit D --------- ATTACHED TO AND FORMING A PART OF LEASE AGREEMENT DATED AS OF DECEMBER 6, 1996 BETWEEN BAY PARK PLAZA ASSOCIATES, L.P., AS LANDLORD, AND CROSSROADS SOFTWARE INC., AS TENANT ("LEASE") ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RIDER ---------------------------- 1. Parking. ------- (a) Landlord shall provide Tenant, on an unassigned, non-exclusive and unlabelled basis, sixty (60) parking spaces in the Parking Facility during the initial Term; provided, however, that ten percent (10%) of such spaces may be designated by Landlord as Building visitors' parking. If Tenant leases additional office space pursuant to this Lease, Landlord shall provide Tenant, also on an unassigned, non-exclusive and unlabelled basis, one (1) additional parking space in the Parking Facility for each three hundred (300) rentable square feet of additional office space leased to Tenant. Up to ten percent (10%) of such additional parking spaces may also be designated by Landlord as Building visitors' parking. (b) The parking spaces to be made available to Tenant hereunder may contain a reasonable mix of spaces for compact cars. Landlord shall take reasonable actions to ensure the availability of the parking spaces leased by Tenant, but Landlord does not guarantee the availability of those spaces at all times against the actions of other tenants of the Building and users of the Parking Facility. Access to the Parking Facility may, at Landlord's option, be regulated by card, pass, bumper sticker, decal or other appropriate identification issued by Landlord. (c) Assignment and Subletting. Notwithstanding the provisions of ------------------------- Section 14 - "Assignment and Subletting" hereof, Tenant shall not assign its rights to the parking spaces or any interest therein, or sublease or otherwise allow the use of all or any part of the parking spaces to or by any other person, except with Landlord's prior-written consent, which may be granted or withheld by Landlord in its sole discretion or in connection with an assignment or subletting permitted under Section 14 of the Lease. In the event of any separate assignment or sublease of parking space rights that is approved by Landlord, Landlord shall be entitled to receive, as Additional Rent hereunder, one hundred percent (100%) of any profit received by Tenant in connection with such assignment or sublease. (d) Condemnation, Damage or Destruction. In the event the Parking ----------------------------------- Facility is the subject of a Condemnation, or is damaged or destroyed, and this Lease is not terminated, and if in such event the available number of parking spaces in the Parking Facility is permanently reduced, then Tenant's rights to use parking spaces hereunder may, at the election of Landlord, thereafter be reduced in proportion to the reduction of the total number of parking spaces in the Parking Facility. In such event, Landlord reserves the right to reduce the number of parking spaces to which Tenant is entitled or to relocate some or all of the parking spaces to which Tenant is entitled to other areas in the Parking Facility. 2. Letter of Credit. ---------------- Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an irrevocable standby letter of credit (the "Letter of Credit") in form, and issued by a financial institution ("Issuer"), reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. The Letter of Credit shall be in the amount of Three Hundred and Thirty Two Thousand Dollars ($332,000.00), name Landlord as the beneficiary thereunder, permit partial draws, and provide that draws thereunder will be honored upon receipt by Issuer of a written statement signed by Landlord specifying the amount to be paid by Issuer to Landlord and certifying that (i) there exists an Event of Default as that term is defined in the Lease, (ii) Landlord is entitled under the terms and conditions of the Lease to the payment by Tenant of the amount specified, (iii) Landlord has applied the Security Deposit held by Landlord identified in the Basic Lease Information in accordance with Section 4 of the Lease and Tenant has not paid to Landlord the amount required to replenish the Security Deposit as required by Section 4 of the Lease. Landlord shall be entitled to draw the entire amount under the Letter of Credit if Tenant does not deliver to Landlord an extension or replacement for the Letter of Credit in substantially the form of the initial Letter of Credit and in the amount then required under this Lease no later than one month before the expiration date of the then existing Letter of Credit. Upon delivery of any such replacement letter of credit, Landlord shall return to Tenant the original Letter of Credit. Landlord shall be entitled to draw amounts under the Letter of Credit required from time to time to cure any Event of Default under this Lease or to compensate Landlord for any damage Landlord incurs as a result of Tenant's failure to perform any of Tenant's obligations hereunder. If Landlord draws down the entire amount of the Letter of Credit as set forth immediately above, then Landlord shall hold such amount in a separate interest bearing account, as a security deposit, subject to the provisions of Section 4 of this Lease (other than the last sentence of Section 4) concerning the use and return of funds held as a Security Deposit. All interest earned on such funds shall be maintained in such interest bearing account and shall be paid to Tenant at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. At Tenant's option, Tenant may instruct Landlord to invest such funds in a conservative manner selected by Tenant which will allow Landlord reasonable access to such funds, but will provide a higher rate of return than an interest bearing account. All of the provisions herein concerning relief from the obligation to maintain the Letter of Credit and to reduce the amount of the Letter of Credit shall apply to such funds held by Landlord. If the requirement of the Letter of Credit would be waived, Landlord shall return such funds and all interest earned thereon to Tenant. If the requirement for the amount of the Letter of Credit would be reduced, Landlord shall return that portion of the funds to Tenant which is equal to the amount of such reduction each time such reduction would occur. Landlord shall release the Letter of Credit at the end of the sixtieth (60th) month of the Term if, as of such date, no Event of Default on the part of Tenant then exists and no event or 2 condition then exists which, with notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of Default on the part of Tenant. Promptly following Tenant's cure of any such Event of Default or default of which Landlord has given Tenant written notice, Landlord shall release the Letter of Credit. The amount of the Letter of Credit shall be reduced on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Commencement Date by the amount of Sixty-Six Thousand Four Hundred Dollars ($66,400), provided that on the anniversary date in question there exists neither an Event of Default or an event or condition which, with notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of Default on the part of Tenant. 3. Warrants. As additional consideration for Landlord's execution of this -------- Lease, Tenant has agreed to issue to Landlord, promptly following the execution of this Lease, warrants to purchase shares of Tenant's common stock, exercisable by Landlord at any time during the Term of this Lease. This Lease shall not be effective as a binding agreement between Landlord and Tenant unless and until a Stock Purchase Warrant satisfactory to Landlord, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, shall have been properly authorized and issued by Tenant to Landlord and accepted by Landlord. If no such Stock Purchase Warrant shall have been so issued and accepted by 5:00 p.m. on December 13, 1996, this Lease shall automatically be null and void. 4. Extension Option ---------------- Provided that Tenant has not assigned this Lease or sublet any or all of the Premises (it being intended that all rights pursuant to this provision are and shall be personal to the original Tenant under this Lease and shall not be transferable or exercisable for the benefit of any Transferee), and provided Tenant is not in default under this Lease at the time of exercise or at any other time thereafter until the beginning of any such extension of the Term, Tenant shall have the option (the "Extension Option") to extend the Term for one additional consecutive period of five (5) years ("Extension Period"), by giving written notice to Landlord of the exercise of any such Extension Option at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial Term. The exercise of any Extension Option by Tenant shall be irrevocable and shall cover the entire Premises then leased by Tenant pursuant to this Lease. Upon such exercise, Landlord shall have the right to review and approve, in Landlord's sole discretion, Tenant's financial condition and creditworthiness at such time. If Landlord approves Tenant's financial condition and creditworthiness, Landlord shall so notify Tenant, and the Term of the Lease shall be extended for the applicable Extension Period without the execution of any further instrument by the parties; provided that Landlord and Tenant shall, if requested by either party, execute and acknowledge and instrument confirming the exercise of the Extension Option. Any Extension Option shall terminate if not exercised precisely in the manner provided herein. Any extension of the Term shall be upon all the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease and all Exhibits thereto, except that:(i) Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of the Lease, other than as specifically set forth herein; (ii) Landlord shall not be obligated to contribute funds toward the cost of any remodeling, renovation, alteration or improvement work in the Premises; and (iii) Base Rent for any such Extension Period shall be 100% of the then "Fair Market Base Rental" (as defined below) for the Premises for the space and term involved, which shall be determined as set forth below. 3 (a) "Fair Market Base Rental" shall mean the "fair market" Base Rent at the time or times in question for the applicable space, based on the prevailing rentals then being charged to new tenants in the Building and new tenants in other office buildings in the general vicinity of the Building of comparable size, location, quality and age as the Building for leases with terms equal to the Extension Period, taking into account the then-condition of the Premises, the amount of any leasing commission payable with respect to the Option Period, the creditworthiness and financial strength of the tenant, the financial guaranties provided the tenant (if any), the value of market concessions (including the value of construction, renovations, moving and other allowances or rent credits), the desirability, location in the building, size and quality of the space, tenant finish and/or improvement allowance and/or tenant improvements, included services, operating expenses, and tax and expense stops or other escalation clauses, for the space in the Building for which Fair Market Base Rental is being determined and for comparable space in the buildings which are being used for comparison. Fair Market Base Rental shall also reflect the then prevailing rental structure of comparable office buildings in the general vicinity of the Property, so that if, for example, at the time Fair Market Base Rental is being determined the prevailing rental structure of comparable space and for comparable lease terms includes periodic rental adjustments or escalations, Fair Market Base Rental shall reflect such rental structure. (b) Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to agree upon the Fair Market Base Rental. If they are unable to so agree within thirty (30) days after receipt by Landlord of Tenant's notice of exercise of the Extension Option, Landlord and Tenant shall mutually select a licensed real estate broker who is active in the leasing of office space in the general vicinity of the Property. Landlord shall submit Landlord's determination of Fair Market Base Rental and Tenant shall submit Tenant's determination of Fair Market Base Rental to such broker, at such time or times and in such manner as Landlord and Tenant shall agree (or as directed by the broker if Landlord and Tenant do not promptly agree). The broker shall select either Landlord's or Tenant's determination as the Fair Market Base Rental, and such determination shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant. If Tenant's determination is selected as the Fair Market Base Rental, then Landlord shall bear all of the broker's cost and fees. If Landlord's determination is selected as the Fair Market Base Rental, then Tenant shall bear all of the broker's cost and fees. (c) In the event the Fair Market Base Rental for any Extension Period has not been determined at such time as Tenant is obligated to pay Base Rent for such Extension Period, Tenant shall pay as Base Rent pending such determination, the Base Rent in effect for such space immediately prior to the Extension Period; provided, that upon the determination of the applicable Fair Market Base Rental, any shortage of Base Rent paid, together with interest at the rate specified in the Lease, shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant. 4 (d) In no event shall the Base Rent during any Extension Period be less than the Base Rent in effect immediately prior to such Extension Period. (e) The term of this Lease, whether consisting of the Initial Term alone or the Initial Term as extended by any Extension Period (if any Extension Option is exercised), is referred to in this Lease as the "Term". Tenant KG ----- Landlord JH ----- 5 FIRST AMENDMENT OF LEASE This First Amendment of Lease (the "Agreement") is made and entered into this the 13th day of November, 1997, by and between BAY PARK PLAZA ASSOCIATES, L. P., a California limited partnership ("Landlord") and CROSSROADS SOFTWARE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Tenant"). Recitals: --------- A. Landlord and Tenant entered into that Lease Agreement dated December 6, 1996 (the "Lease"), under the terms of which Lease Landlord leased to Tenant and Tenant leased from Landlord certain premises known as Suite 800 containing approximately 17,927 square feet of Rentable Area (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Existing Premises") situated on the 8th floor of an office building known as Bay Park Plaza I (the "Building") located at 577 Airport Boulevard, Burlingame, California 94010.

The balance, if any, of the cost of the Tenant Improvements, including, but not limited to, usual markups for overhead, supervision and profit, shall be paid by Tenant to CIC pursuant to Tenant's contract with CIC. 6) The First Expansion Premises Commencement Date shall be the earlier of (a) sixty (60) days after the date Landlord delivers possession of the First Expansion Premises to Tenant (which date may be prior to the date of the Second Expansion Premises Commencement Date) after the tenant currently occupying the First Expansion Premises has vacated the First Expansion Premises pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 2 above, or (b) any earlier date upon which Tenant, with Landlord's written permission, actually occupies and conducts business in any portion of the First Expansion Premises. 7) The Second Expansion Premises Commencement Date shall be the date Landlord delivers possession of the Second Expansion Premises to Tenant (which date may be prior to the date of the First Expansion Premises Date) after the tenant currently occupying the Second Expansion Premises has vacated the Second Expansion Premises pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 2 above. 8) The Term of the Lease shall be extended to be one hundred twenty (120) full calendar months (plus any partial month of the Term) following the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date; and the Term shall expire on the last day of the one hundred twentieth (120th) full calendar month following the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date. 9) Base Rent for the Expansion Premises. Reference is hereby made to Article 3 ------------------------------------ of the Lease. In addition to the Base Rent payable by Tenant for the Existing Premises pursuant to the provisions of the Lease in effect prior to the date of this Agreement, from and after the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date (with respect to the First Expansion Premises), and the Second Expansion Premises Commencement Date (with respect to the Second Expansion Premises) and continuing through the remainder of the Term (subject to annual increases in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 10 below), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1 of the Lease, $2.75 per month per square foot of Rentable Area in the Expansion Premises as Base Rent for the Expansion Premises. Base Rent for any partial month following the respective Expansion Premises Commencement Date shall be prorated based on the actual number of days in the month. 10) The following new provision is hereby added to the Lease: 3 COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENTS. (a) Subject to the restriction on increases in Base Rent for the Existing Premises prior to January 31, 2002 contained in Paragraph 11 below, the Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area shall be increased effective on each anniversary of the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date (each anniversary being an "Adjustment Date"), to reflect increases in the cost of living. The adjustment shall be calculated by multiplying the average Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area for the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Adjustment Date (the "Prior Period") by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index, measured from (i) the last calendar month for which the Consumer Price Index was published at least one hundred twenty (120) days immediately before the commencement of the Prior Period to (ii) the same calendar month immediately prior to the end of the Prior Period; provided, however, that on each Adjustment Date the Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area shall be increased by a minimum of three percent (3%) per annum, cumulative, from the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date or the prior Adjustment Date, as applicable, and by a maximum of six percent (6%) per annum, cumulative, from the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date or the prior Adjustment Date, as applicable. The Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area for each twelve (12) month period after the first Adjustment Date shall be the Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area for the Prior Period plus the increase calculated in accordance with the preceding sentence. In no event shall the Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area following any such adjustment be less than the Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (b) The term "Consumer Price Index" means the United States Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics' Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, All Items, San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose, California (1982-84=100), or the successor of such index. (c) If the Consumer Price Index is not published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or another governmental agency for any month for which an adjustment in the Consumer Price Index is to be measured, then the foregoing calculations shall be made using the most closely comparable statistics on the purchasing power of the consumer dollar as published by a responsible financial authority selected by Landlord. (d) If the adjustment provided for in this Section has not been made by any Adjustment Date, Tenant shall continue to pay monthly Base Rent at the rate applicable to the Prior Period. Within fifteen (15) days after Tenant receives Landlord's written notice of the adjusted Base Rent for the then-current Adjustment Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the shortfall between the old Base Rent, as paid by Tenant to date for the then-current Lease period, and the new Base Rent payable from the beginning of 4 the then-current Lease period through the date of Landlord's notice. Thereafter during such Lease period, Tenant shall pay the Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area at the new rate set forth in Landlord's notice. 11) Base Rent for the Existing Premises. Continuing through January 31, 2002 ----------------------------------- Tenant shall continue to pay Base Rent for the Existing Premises in accordance with the provisions of the Lease in effect prior to the date of this Agreement (without any increase pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 10 above prior to January 31, 2002). Commencing February 1, 2002, Tenant shall pay to Landlord for the Existing Premises the same Base Rent per month per square foot of Rentable Area contained in the Existing Premises as Tenant is required to pay per month per square foot of Rentable Area in the Expansion Premises effective February 1, 2002 pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 9 above, as increased pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 10 above. Thereafter, Base Rent for the Existing Premises shall increase on the same date, and in the same manner, as Base Rent for the Expansion Premises increases pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 10 above. 12) Reference is hereby made to Section 4.01 of the Lease. The Base Year for the entire Premises, including the Existing Premises, shall be calendar year 1998. 13) If the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date occurs prior to the Second Expansion Premises Commencement Date, then upon the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date, Tenant's Share shall be 25.53%. If the Second Expansion Premises Commencement Date occurs prior to the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date, then upon the Second Expansion Premises Commencement Date, Tenant's Share shall be 16.26%. Tenant's Share shall be 28.97% upon such date both the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date and the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date has occurred, whichever is later. 14) Letter of Credit. Within fifteen (15) days after Tenant executes this ---------------- Agreement Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 2 of the Additional Provisions Rider to the Lease, either (a) an amendment to the existing Letter of Credit increasing the amount of the existing Letter of Credit by Ninety Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($90,000.00), or (b) in addition to the existing Letter of Credit, a new Letter of Credit in the amount of Ninety Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($90,000.00). 15) Tenant warrants and represents to Landlord that in the negotiating or making of this Agreement neither Tenant nor anyone acting on Tenant's behalf has dealt with any broker or finder who might be entitled to a fee or commission for this Agreement. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any claim or claims, including costs, expenses and attorney's fees incurred by Landlord asserted by any other broker or finder for a fee or commission based upon any dealings with or statements made by Tenant or Tenant's Representatives. 5 Except as herein amended, the Lease remains unchanged and is in full force and effect in accordance with the terms and provisions contained therein. This First Amendment is hereby executed and delivered in multiple counterparts, each of which shall have the force and effect of an original. TENANT: LANDLORD: CROSSROADS SOFTWARE, INC.
