Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, upon the terms and -------- conditions contained in this lease ("Lease"), those certain premises (the "Premises") consisting of the ("Land") and the "Building" located at 3600 Peterson Way, Santa Clara, California, which Premises are shown on the map attached hereto as Exhibit "A." The Building contains approximately 70,538 square feet. 2. Tenant Improvements; Condition of Premises. ------------------------------------------ 2.1 Development of Plans and Specifications. On or before April 11, --------------------------------------- 1995, Landlord shall cause to be prepared and submitted to Tenant working drawings and related specifications (the "Plans and Specifications") for the interior improvements (the "Tenant Improvements") depicted in the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit "B". Provided that Landlord has submitted the Plans and Specifications to Tenant by the date set forth in the preceding sentence, Tenant shall review and approve the Plans and Specifications no later than 5:00 p.m. April 14, 1995. 2.2 Contractor; Construction. Upon review and approval of the Plans ------------------------ and Specifications by Tenant, Landlord shall submit the same for bidding purposes to Devcon Construction ("Devcon") and 1 one other contractor selected by Tenant ("Tenant's Contractor"), which submission shall be with instructions that such contractors must provide full written bids for the construction of the Tenant Improvements to Landlord no later than 5:00 p.m., April 18, 1995. Landlord shall select, for the construction of the Tenant Improvements, the contractor which has submitted the lowest responsive bid; provided, however, Landlord shall only be required to select Tenant's Contractor to the extent such contractor has the requisite level of back-ground and experience, is able to provide full performance and payment bonding for the Tenant Improvements (whether or not bonds are actually obtained), and otherwise has the financial capability to carry out the subject construction; provided further, however, in the event Tenant's Contractor has submitted the lowest responsive bid (and meets the requirements set forth above), Landlord may nevertheless select Devcon if either Devcon agrees to lower its bid to that submitted by Tenant's Contractor or Landlord otherwise agrees to increase the Improvement Allowance (as defined in Section 2.3 below) to include the excess of Devcon's bid over the bid of Tenant's Contractor. The contractor selected, as provided above, shall be retained by Landlord and the actual construction for the Tenant Improvements shall be carried out under the direction and supervision of Landlord. Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the Tenant Improvements to be Substantially Completed by July 1, 1995.

Any entry by Tenant pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be subject to the provisions of Section 13.1 below. During the course of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall obtain the prior consent of Tenant to any changes to, or deviations from, the Plans and Specifications (as approved by both Landlord and Tenant), which changes or deviations would, in the aggregate, result in an overall increase in the total amount of the Improvements Costs. 2.3 Improvement Costs. All of the costs, expenses, and applicable fees ----------------- to be incurred in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements ("Improvement Costs") shall be advanced by Landlord. Landlord shall advance funds for the Improvements Costs up to One Million Four Hundred Ten Thousand Seven Hundred Sixty Dollars ($1,410,760) as the "Improvement Allowance". Any Improvements Costs incurred by Landlord in excess of the Improvement Allowance (but only to the extent such excess does not exceed Three Hundred Fifty-two Thousand Six Hundred Ninety Dollars ($352,690) (the "Additional Allowance") shall be amortized over the initial Lease Term (together with interest thereon at the rate of eleven percent (11%) per annum) and shall be payable by Tenant, as Additional Rent under this Lease, in equal monthly installments over the initial Lease Term with each payment of monthly Base Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease. Any Improvement Costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the 3 Tenant Improvements in excess of the Improvement Allowance and the Additional Allowance shall be paid for by Tenant, which payment shall be due and payable within ten (10) days following written demand therefor by Landlord. 2.4 Delivery of Premises: "As Is" Condition. Landlord shall not be in --------------------------------------- default hereunder and shall not be liable to Tenant for any damage or loss incurred by Tenant by reason of Landlord's failure, for whatever reason, to cause the Premises to be delivered (or the Tenant Improvements Substantially Completed) by any particular date, nor shall this Lease be void nor voidable on account thereof; provided, however, in the event the Tenant Improvements have not been Substantially Completed on or before January 31, 1996 ("Outside Completion Date") and such delay is not a result of a Tenant Delay (as defined in Section 3.1 below), Tenant shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Lease by providing Landlord with written notice thereof on or before the date which is ten (10) days following the Outside Completion Date: Tenant shall accept the Premises on the Commencement Date (as defined below) in its "As Is" condition, subject to the following: (a) The Tenant Improvements shall have been constructed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications approved by Landlord; (b) The Premises shall be in compliance with all applicable governmental ordinances, rules, codes, or regulations which relate to the Building (collectively, "General Building Regulations"); and, (c) The Building shall comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"). 4 All costs and expenses incurred in placing the base Building shell in compliance with any General Building Regulations and/or the ADA shall be borne by Landlord and shall not be deducted from the Improvement Allowance or, if applicable, included within Additional Allowance. All other costs and expenses relating to compliance with General Building Regulations and/or the ADA (including, without limitation, any such compliance which is required in connection with the Tenant Improvements) may be deducted from the Improvement Allowance and, if applicable, included within Additional Allowance. 3.

Tenant may take occupancy of the Premises at such time as the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Completed. The date of such occupancy is hereinafter referred to as the "Occupancy Date". Tenant's entry and occupancy of the Premises on the Occupancy Date shall be subject to all the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the maintenance of insurance as provided in Section 12.1, but excepting therefrom the payment by Tenant of monthly Base Rent, as described in Section 4.1 below.

The term "Lease Term" shall mean and refer to the initial term of the Lease, as described in Section 3.1 above, together with the Extended Term which has been put into effect by reason of an exercise of the Option by Tenant pursuant to this Section 3.2. 4. Rent. ---- 4.1 Base Rent; Additional Rent. -------------------------- 4.1.1 Base Rent. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, without --------- prior notice, demand, or right of deduction and/or offset monthly "Base Rent" in the amounts set forth in Exhibit "C" attached hereto, which Base Rent shall be due and payable at Landlord's address shown above on the first day of each calendar month throughout the Lease Term.

After timely receipt by Landlord of ---------------- Tenant's notice of exercise of the Option, Landlord and Tenant shall have a period of thirty (30) days in which to agree on Base Rent for the Extended Term; provided, however, if Tenant's notice of exercise of the Option is given prior to the 48th month of the Lease Term, then the thirty (30) day period referenced herein shall commence to run on the first day of the 53rd month of the Lease Term and if Tenant's notice of exercise of the Option is given after the 48th month of the Lease Term, then the thirty (30) day period referenced herein shall commence to run as of the date of such notice. If Landlord and Tenant agree on Base Rent during the thirty (30) day, they shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating Base Rent for the Extended Term. If Landlord 8 and Tenant are unable to so agree on Base Rent, then Base Rent for the Extended Term shall be calculated by utilizing the fair market rental value of the Premises determined as provided in Section 4.2.2 below. 4.2.2 Appraisal. Within ten (10) days after the expiration --------- of the thirty (30) day period described in Section 4.2.1 above, each party, at its cost and by giving notice to the other party, shall appoint M.A.I. real estate appraiser, with at least five (5) years full-time commercial appraisal experience in Santa Clara County, to appraise and set the fair market rental value of the Premises. If a party does not appoint an appraiser within five (5) days after the other party has given notice of the name of its appraiser, the single appraiser appointed shall be the sole appraiser and shall set the fair market rental value of the Premises. The cost of such sole appraiser shall be borne equally by the parties. The two appraisers appointed by the parties shall meet promptly and attempt to set the fair-market rental value of the Premises. If they are unable to agree within twenty (20) days after the last appraiser has been appointed, then the two appraisers shall attempt to select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications stated in this Section 4.2.2 within ten (10) days after the last day the two appraisers are given to set the fair market rental value of the Premises. If they are unable to agree on the third appraiser, either of the parties to this Lease, by giving ten (10) days notice to the other party, may apply to the presiding judge of the Superior Court of Santa Clara County for the selection of a third appraiser who meets the qualifications stated above. Each of the parties shall bear one-half (1/2) of the cost of appointing the third appraiser and of paying the third appraiser's fee. The third appraiser, however selected, shall be instructed to 9 select which of the two appraisals submitted by the parties' respective appraisers more closely represents the fair market rental value for the Premises, which selection shall be the fair market rental value of the Premises. In establishing the fair market rental value, the appraiser or appraisers shall consider (on a triple net basis) the reasonable market rental value for the Premises (which shall include considerations of (a) rental rates for comparable space with comparable tenant improvements, (b) cost of living increases or other rental adjustments, (c) the relative strength of the tenants, and (d) the size of the space without regard to the existence of this Lease. 5. [Intentionally Omitted]. 6. Operating Expenses and Taxes. ---------------------------- 6.1 Payment by Tenant. Pursuant to this Section 6, Tenant shall pay to ----------------- Landlord Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses and Taxes. (a) Operating Expenses. Landlord shall determine or estimate the ------------------ amount of Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses for the calendar year in which the Occupancy Date occurs. Beginning on the Commencement Date, one- twelfth (1/12) of the amount estimated by Landlord to be Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses shall be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord, as Additional Rent, on the first day of each calendar month remaining in the calendar year. Thereafter, Landlord may estimate such increases to Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses as of the beginning of each calendar year and may require Tenant to pay one-twelfth (1/12) of such estimated amount as Additional Rent hereunder as of the first day of each calendar month. 10 In the event that during the course of any calendar year Operating Expenses have increased by more than five percent (5%) over the amount of Operating Expenses estimated by Landlord at the commencement of that calendar year, Landlord may recalculate the amount of the monthly estimated payments to be paid by Tenant in order to take into account any such increases and, following notice from Landlord of any such increase, Tenant shall pay the full amount of the recalculated payments on a monthly basis for the remainder of the subject calendar year. In making the aforesaid recalculation, Landlord may include amounts necessary to reimburse Landlord for any increased Operating Expenses applicable to that portion of the subject calendar year which was prior to the date of Landlord's notice. Not later than ninety (90) days following any calendar year (including the year following the year in which this Lease terminates), Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a true and correct accounting of the actual Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord in the preceding calendar year, and within thirty (30) days of Landlord's delivery of such accounting, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any underpayment by Tenant of Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure by Landlord to give such accounting shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of its right to collect Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses or any underpayment by Tenant thereof. Landlord shall credit the amount of any overpayment by Tenant toward the next estimated installment(s) of Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses or, where the term of the Lease has expired or been terminated (other than due to a default by Tenant), shall refund the amount of overpayment to Tenant within 11 thirty (30) days without obligation upon Tenant to demand such refund from Landlord. (b) Taxes. Tenant shall pay to Tenant's Percentage Share of ----- Taxes within ten (10) days following the written demand by Landlord therefor, which demand shall be accompanied by a copy of the tax bill reflecting the Taxes for which Landlord is seeking payment and shall be made by Landlord no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the due date of such Taxes. If any Taxes cover any period of time either prior to the Occupancy Date or after the expiration of the Lease Term, Tenant's Percentage Share of Taxes shall be prorated to cover only the period of time following the Occupancy Date or prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, as applicable. 6.2 Definitions. "Tenant's Percentage Share" shall be one hundred ----------- percent (100%). "Operating Expenses" are defined as all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by Landlord in connection with the ownership, maintenance, repair, management, and operation of the Premises, the Building, and the Land, which reasonable costs and expenses shall include, without limit, the following: (a) Landlord's reasonable costs and expenses in carrying out repairs and maintenance pursuant to Section 11.2(b), (c), and (d) below; (b) Landlord's cost of fire, extended coverage (including rental loss insurance) and other insurance for the Building and the Land; (c) Landlord's reasonable cost of modifications to the Building occasioned by any rules, laws or regulations effective subsequent to the Occupancy Date; 12 (d) Landlord's reasonable cost of the fire sprinkler monitoring system; (e) a management fee of Twenty Thousand ($20,000) per year for each year during the initial five years of the Lease Term (and, if applicable, a management fee in a reasonable and customary amount for each year during the Extended Term; and, (f) the amortized portion of any capital expenditures incurred by Landlord with respect to the Building, including, without limitation, expenditures for modifications to Building occasioned by any rules, laws or regulations made effective subsequent to the Occupancy Date; provided, however, capital expenditures made with respect to the structure of the Building shall not be included within Operating Expenses. In any calendar year Operating Expenses shall include no more than Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000) for costs and expenses related to routine maintenance and repair of the roof of the Building; provided, however, if any roof related expense constitutes a capital expenditure, then Tenant shall pay a portion thereof as provided in (f) above. "Amortized portion" of any capital expenditure to be paid by Tenant shall mean Tenant's Percentage Share of the following: the amount of the expenditure amortized (on a monthly basis) over the useful life of the item to which the expenditure is applicable. Tenant's Percentage Share of such amortized amount shall be payable in each month after such expenditure is incurred until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Lease Term, or (ii) the end of the useful life of the item to which the expenditure is applicable. "Taxes" are defined as all real property taxes applicable to the Land, the Building, and the Premises. The term "real 13 property taxes" shall include any form of assessment (general, special, ordinary or extraordinary), commercial rental tax, improvement bond or bonds, license fee, license tax, rental tax, levy, penalty imposed by any authority having the direct or indirect power of tax, including any city, county, state or federal government, or any school, agricultural, lighting, drainage or other improvement district thereof, as against any legal or equitable interest of Landlord in the Land, the Building, and/or the Premises, as against Landlord's right to rent or to other income therefrom, or as against Landlord's business of leasing the Premises or the occupancy of Tenant, or any other tax, fee, or excise, however described including any value added tax, or any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax previously included within the definition of real property taxes, or any additional tax, the nature of which was previously included within the definition of real property tax. The term "real property taxes" shall not include any income of franchise taxes imposed on Landlord. In addition, in the event of any increase in real property taxes resulting from a reassessments of the Land and/or the Building due to any sale, transfer, refinancing, or other change in ownership of the Building or the Land during the initial Lease Term, then fifty percent (50%) of the increase in real property taxes resulting therefrom shall not be included as part of "real property taxes" for purposes of determining Tenant's Percentage Share of Taxes. 7. Utilities. Tenant shall be solely responsible for paying the cost of --------- all water, gas, heat, electricity, telephone, garbage and other utilities used on the Premises. Tenant shall pay directly to the utility provider the cost of all such utilities. 14 8. Late Charges. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to ------------ Landlord of Base Rent, Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses and Taxes or other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impracticable to fix. Such costs include, without limitation, processing and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any encumbrances or notes secured by any encumbrance covering the Premises. Therefore, if any installment of Base Rent or other sum due from Tenant is not received by Landlord when due, then, within ten (10) days following the date said Base Rent or other sum is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without additional invoice or demand, an additional sum equal to ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. The accrual and/or acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of Landlord's other rights and remedies. 9. Use of Premises; Compliance with Laws. ------------------------------------- 9.1 General. The Premises are to be used for testing, research and ------- development, related semiconductor testing and such other uses which are incidental thereto (collectively, "Tenant's Operations"). Any other use of the Premises shall only be made upon the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall not do anything or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises nor keep or bring anything or permit anything to be kept or brought therein which will in any way increase the existing rate of or affect any policy 15 of fire or other insurance upon the Building or any of its contents, or cause a cancellation of any insurance policy. Tenant shall not use or allow the Premises to be used for any unlawful purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises. Tenant shall not damage or deface or otherwise commit or suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises. Tenant shall honor the terms of all recorded covenants, conditions and restrictions relating to the Land. Tenant shall honor the terms of any reasonable rules and regulations established by Landlord during the Lease Term which relate to the Premises and/or the Building.

Insurance. --------- 12.1 Tenant's Insurance.

The aforesaid liability insurance shall also contain an endorsement naming Landlord, and Landlord's partners, employees, agents and assignees, as "additional insureds," which endorsement shall cover the aforesaid additional insureds for all acts and omissions of said parties in or about the Premises. The aforesaid insurance shall be in an amount of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence and not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) in the aggregate. In no event shall the limits of said policy be considered as limiting the liability of Tenant under this Lease. 24 Tenant shall also at all times maintain standard "all risk" casualty insurance on the Tenant Improvements; and upon all of Tenant's equipment, furnishings and fixtures, The aforesaid insurance shall be with companies licensed to do business with the Insurance Commissioner of the State of California.

Each party shall cause each insurance policy obtained by it to provide that the insurance company waives all right of recovery by way of subrogation against either party in connection with any damage covered by any policy. If any insurance 25 policy cannot be obtained with a waiver of subrogation, or is obtainable only by the payment of an additional premium charge above that charged by insurance companies issuing policies without waivers of subrogation, the party undertaking to obtain the insurance shall notify the other party of this fact. The other party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after receiving such notice either to replace the insurance with a company that is reasonably satisfactory to the other party and that will carry the insurance with a waiver of subrogation, or to agree to pay the additional premium if such policy is obtainable at additional cost. If the insurance cannot be obtained or the party in whose favor a waiver of subrogation is desired refuses to pay the additional premium charge, the other party is relieved of the obligation to obtain a waiver of subrogation rights with respect to the particular insurance involved. 13.

Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days following the date hereof, submit a written request to all present holders of any Encumbrances 30 that such parties provide a non-disturbance agreement to and for the benefit of Tenant. Tenant hereby acknowledges that there is no assurance that such present holders will honor such request and that, if the request is denied, this Lease will continue unaffected. 16.2 Attornment. In the event any proceedings are brought for ---------- foreclosure or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust made by Landlord covering the Premises, Tenant shall, at the option of such purchaser, attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and shall recognize such purchaser as the Landlord under this Lease, provided such purchaser agrees in writing to assume all obligations of Landlord under this Lease accruing following such sale or purchase and provides a copy of such agreement to Tenant. 16.3 Approval by Lender. Tenant acknowledges that any future holder ------------------ of an Encumbrance may retain the right to approve the terms and provisions of this Lease. Tenant agrees that, in the event such holder shall require any modification of this Lease in order to protect its security interest in the Premises, including, without limitation, modification of the provisions relating to damage to or condemnation of the Premises, Tenant shall execute the appropriate amendments to this Lease, provided, however, no modification of this Lease shall (a) change the size, location or dimension of the Premises, (b) increase the Rents payable by Tenant hereunder, (c) result in unreimbursable expenses to Tenant, or (d) reduce Tenant's rights or protections set forth herein.

Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser, encumbrancer, assignee or subletter of the Premises, as applicable.

Tenant's Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following ---------------- events shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease by Tenant: (a) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of Rent or any other payment required hereunder within five (5) days from the date the same is due and payable; (b) The failure of Tenant to observe, perform or comply with any of the conditions or provisions of this Lease for a period, unless a longer period is otherwise provided herein, of thirty (30) days after written notice, or if such default cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be reasonably necessary if within such thirty (30) days Tenant has commenced and is diligently pursuing such activities as are necessary to cure the default; and (c) Tenant becomes the subject of any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, and, in the case of an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Tenant fails to cause the same to be dismissed within sixty (60) days following that date of the filing of such bank- ruptcy. Any notice from Landlord to Tenant described in this Section 19 shall, in the sole discretion of Landlord, constitute a three (3) day notice pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1161 or any successor statute. With respect to any "default" by Tenant referenced in this Lease, the term "default" as 33 used in such context shall mean any of the events described in subsections (a), (b) and/or (c) of this Section 19. 20. Remedies for Tenant's Default. Upon any default by Tenant, Landlord --------------------------- shall have the following remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by law, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively, or in the alternative: 20.1 Termination. Upon any default by Tenant, Landlord shall have the ----------- right (but not the obligation) to terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of the Premises. If Landlord has given Tenant any written notice pursuant to Section 19 above, then Landlord shall not be required to give Tenant any additional notice terminating this Lease. Upon termination of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to recover from Tenant: (a) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rents which had been earned at the time of termination; (b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the Rents 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; (c) The worth at the time of award (computed by discounting at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent) of the amount by which the Rents for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceed the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and (d) Any other amounts necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by the default by Tenant or which in the ordinary course of events would likely result, including without limitation the following: 34 (i) Expenses in retaking possession of the Premises; (ii) Expenses for cleaning, repairing or restoring the Premises, except for normal wear and tear; (iii) Any unamortized real estate brokerage commission paid in connection with this Lease; (iv) Expenses for removing, transporting, and storing any of Tenant's property left at the Premises (although Landlord shall have no obligation to remove, transport, or store any such property); (v) Expenses of reletting the Premises, including without limitation, brokerage commissions and attorneys' fees; and (vi) Attorneys' fees and court costs. The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 20.1 is computed by allowing interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of: ten percent (10%); or five percent (5%) plus the rate established by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, as of the twenty-fifth (25th) day of the month immediately preceding the default by Tenant, 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, not to exceed the maximum rate allowable by law. The computation of the rental loss that could be or could have been avoided by Landlord pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1951.2 shall take into account the use restrictions set forth in Section 9 above except to the extent Tenant proves under all circumstances that the enforcement of the such restrictions would be unreasonable. 35 20.2 Continuance of Lease. Upon a default by Tenant and unless and -------------------- until Landlord elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 20.1 above, this Lease shall continue in effect after the default by Tenant, and Landlord may enforce all rights and remedies under this Lease, including, without limitation, the right to recover payment of Rents as they become due. Neither efforts by Landlord to mitigate damages caused by a default by Tenant nor the acceptance of any Rents shall constitute a waiver by Landlord of any of Landlord's rights or remedies, including the rights and remedies specified in this Section 20. It is intended that the remedy set forth in this Section 20.2 is to provide Landlord the rights set forth in California Civil Code Section 1951.4. The use restrictions set forth in Section 9 above shall apply to Landlord's rights under this Section 20.2 except to the extent Tenant proves under all circumstances that the enforcement of such restrictions would be unreasonable. 20.3 Reletting Premises. Upon a default by Tenant, Landlord may, at ------------------ Landlord's election, re-enter the Premises and, without terminating this Lease, and at any time and from time to time, relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for the account and in the name of Tenant or otherwise. Landlord may, at Landlord's election, eject Tenant or any of Tenant's subtenants, assignees or other person claiming any right in or through this Lease. Tenant shall nevertheless pay to Landlord on the due dates specified in this Lease all sums required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, plus Landlord's expenses, less the proceeds of any sublease or reletting. Notwithstanding any prior reletting without termination, Landlord may later elect to terminate this Lease because of a default by Tenant. 36 20.4 Right to Cure Tenant's Default. In the event Tenant fails to ------------------------------ cure a default described under Section 19(b) within a period of thirty (30) days after written notice (unless a longer period of time is otherwise provided herein), Landlord may, in addition to all other rights and remedies under this Lease, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative, cure such default and demand reimbursement by Tenant of the cost actually incurred by Landlord in curing such default by Tenant, with interest thereon from the date such cost is incurred by Landlord until payment. All amounts due and payable to Landlord under this Section 20.4 shall constitute Rent under this Lease. The cure by Landlord of any default shall in no way be deemed a waiver or release of Tenant from any obligation under this Lease. 21. Surrender of Premises. Upon termination of the Lease or expiration of --------------------- the term hereof, if Tenant retains possession of the Premises without Landlord's written consent first had and obtained, then Tenant's possession shall be deemed a tenancy at sufferance, and Landlord may bring an action for possession or detainer at any time thereafter. If Tenant holds possession of the Premises after the term of this Lease with Landlord's consent, Tenant shall become a tenant from month to month upon the terms and conditions as provided in this Lease except that Base Rent shall equal one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Base Rent due during the last year of the Lease Term, payable in advance on or before the first day of each month. All options, if any, granted under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed terminated and be of no effect during said month to month tenancy. Tenant shall continue in possession until such tenancy shall be terminated by either Landlord or Tenant giving written notice of termination to the 37 other party at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of termination. 22. Landlord's Default. Upon any default by Landlord under this Lease, ------------------ Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice of such default and a reasonable time period in which to cure such default. 23. Parking. Tenant shall have the right during the Lease Term to use, on ------- an exclusive basis, one hundred percent (100%) of the parking spaces located within the parking facilities situated within the Common Areas. 24. Sale of Premises. In the event of any sale of the Premises by ---------------- Landlord, Landlord shall be, without any further act or acknowledgment on the part of Landlord or Tenant, entirely released from all liability under any and all of its covenants and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease or arising out of any act, occurrence or omission occurring after the consummation of such sale. The purchaser at such sale or any subsequent sale of the Premises shall be deemed, without any further agreement between the parties or their successors in interest or between the parties and any such purchaser, to have assumed and agreed to carry out any and all of the covenants and obligations of Landlord under this Lease. 25. Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of ------ either party on any default by the other party shall impair such a right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. The subsequent acceptance of Rents by Landlord or payments by Tenant after breach by the payee of any covenant or term of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, other than a waiver of timely payment for the particular payment involved, and shall not prevent the aggrieved party from maintaining any action 38 based on such breach (including an unlawful detainer action, if applicable). No payment by a party or receipt by the other party of a lesser amount than the Rent and other sums due hereunder shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest Rent or other sums due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction. A party may accept such check or payment without prejudice to its right to recover the balance of such Rent or other sum or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease. The waiver by a party of any breach of any term of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such term or of any subsequent breach thereof. 26. Casualty Damage. If the Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged --------------- by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give prompt written notice thereof to Landlord. In case the Building or the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty (a) such that more than thirty percent (30%) reconstruction of the Building or the Premises is required, as determined by Landlord, or (b) regardless of the extent of damage, such damage is either uninsured or the insurance proceeds are unavailable or insufficient for Landlord to restore the Building or the Premises, Landlord may elect to either terminate this Lease or restore the Building or the Premises. In all other cases, Landlord shall promptly commence reconstruction repair subject to this Section 26. If Landlord elects to terminate the Lease, the estate created hereby shall terminate forty- five (45) days following the date of damage, and Base Rent due hereunder shall be abated as of the date of such damage. If Landlord elects to repair and restore the Building or the Premises, then Landlord shall proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Building or the Premises (except Landlord shall not be responsible for delays outside of its control) to substantially 39 the same condition existing immediately prior to the casualty. If Landlord is required to make any repairs or restorations pursuant to this Section 26, Landlord shall not be required to spend for such repairs or restoration an amount in excess of the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord as a result of the casualty. If Landlord elects to repair or restore the Building or the Premises, then Tenant, within thirty (30) days after the date the damage occurred, may request in writing from Landlord an estimate of the time required to repair or restore the Building or the Premises. Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord's reasonable estimate of the time for restoration or repair. If Landlord estimates that the Premises or the Building cannot be restored within one hundred and eighty (180) days from the date that the damage occurred, then Tenant shall have five (5) business days from receipt of Landlord's estimate in which to terminate this Lease, which termination shall be effective as of the date the damage occurred. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant, injury to the business of Tenant, loss of use of any part of the Premises by Tenant or loss of Tenant's personal property resulting in any way from such damage or the restoration thereof, except that, during any restoration, Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of Base Rent during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy. In no event shall Landlord be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the Tenant Improvements or Tenant's furniture, furnishings or fixtures and equipment except to the extent that Landlord actually receives insurance proceeds with respect to the damage of such property (Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is under no obligation to maintain insurance covering such property and that neither Landlord nor any of its representatives have made any representations or 40 warranties to Tenant that Landlord intends to maintain any insurance covering such property). Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Sections 1932(2.), 1933(4.), 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code.
