E. Optional Term Monthly Rent. The Monthly Rent for the Optional Term -------------------------- shall be determined as follows: (i) The parties shall have 15 days after Landlord receives the Option Notice within which to agree on the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term based upon the then fair market rental value of the Premises as defined in Section 5(E)(ii). If the parties agree on the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term within 15 days, they shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term and the adjustments thereto determined in accordance with Section 5(E)(iv) below. If the parties are unable to agree on the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term within 15 days, then, the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term shall be the then current fair market rental value of the Premises as determined in accordance with Section 5(E)(iii). (ii) The "then fair market rental value of the Premises" shall be defined to mean the fair market rental value of the Premises as of the commencement of the Optional Term, taking into consideration the uses permitted under this Lease, the quality, size, design and location of the Premises, and the rent for comparable buildings located in Sunnyvale. In no event shall the fair market monthly rental value of the Premises for the Optional Term be less than the Monthly Rent last payable under the Lease. (iii) Within seven days after the expiration of the 5-day period set forth in Section 5(E)(1), each party, at its cost and by giving notice to the other party, shall appoint a real estate appraiser with at least five years' full-time commercial appraisal experience in the area in which the Premises are located to appraise and set the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term. If a party, does not appoint an appraiser within 10 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 Monthly Rent. If the two appraisers are appointed by the parties as stated in this Section, they shall meet promptly and attempt to set the initial Monthly Rent. If they are unable to agree within 30 days after the second appraiser has been appointed, they shall attempt to elect a third appraiser meeting the qualifications stated in this Section within 10 days after the last day the two appraisers are given to set the initial Monthly Rent. If they are unable to agree on the third appraiser, either of the parties to this Lease, by giving 10 days' notice to the other party, can apply to the then Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County Superior Court, for the selection of a third appraiser who meets the qualifications stated in this paragraph. Each of the parties shall bear one-half of the cost of appointing the third appraiser and of paying the third appraiser's fee. The third appraiser, however selected, shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either party. Within 30 days after the selection of the third appraiser, a majority of the appraisers shall set the initial Monthly Rent. If a majority of the appraisers are unable to set the initial Monthly Rent within the stipulated period of time, the three appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by three; the resulting quotient shall be the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term. If, however, the low appraisal and/or the high appraisal are/is more than ten percent (10%) lower and/or higher than the middle appraisal, the low appraisal and/or the high appraisal shall be disregarded. If only one appraisal is disregarded, the remaining two appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by two; the resulting quotient shall be the initial Monthly Rent for the Optional Term. If both the low appraisal and the high appraisal are disregarded as stated in this paragraph, then only the middle appraisal shall be used as the result of the appraisal. After the initial Monthly Rent has been set, the appraisers shall immediately notify the parties and the parties shall amend this Lease to set forth such amount. (iv) The Monthly Rent due during the Optional Term shall be increased every 12 months during the Optional Term by amount equal to five percent (5%) of the Monthly Rent due for the prior 12 months of the Optional Term. 6. LATE PAYMENT CHARGES Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent and other charges provided for under this Lease would cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult or impracticable to fix. Therefore, if any installment of Rent or any other charge due from Tenant is not received by Landlord within five (5) business days after the date such Rent or other charge is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an Additional sum equal to five percent (5%) of the amount overdue as a late charge. This late charge shall be in addition to interest on the overdue payment charged from the date due to the date paid at the Interest Rate. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment by Tenant. Initials: Landlord: Tenant: 7. SECURITY DEPOSIT Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the amount specified in the Lease Summary as Tenant's security deposit for the faithful performance of all terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease (the "Deposit"). Without waiving any of Landlord's other rights and remedies under this Lease, if Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, Landlord may apply all or any part of the Deposit for the payment of any Rent or other sum in default, the repair of any damage to the Premises caused by Tenant or the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenants default or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default to the full extent permitted by law. Tenant hereby waives any restriction on the use or application of the Security Deposit by Landlord as set forth in California Civil Code Section 1950.7. If Landlord so applies the Deposit, Tenant shall within ten days after demand from Landlord restore the Deposit to the full amount set forth in the Lease Summary. Failure of Tenant to do so shall be default under this Lease. Landlord's application of the Deposit shall in no event be construed as in any way limiting Tenant's liability or obligation with respect to any such default. If Tenant has kept and performed all terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, Landlord will, within thirty (30) days following termination of this Lease, return the Deposit to Tenant or the last permitted assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on the Deposit. No trust or fiduciary relationship is created by this Lease between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Deposit. 8. HOLDING OVER If Tenant remains in possession of all or any part of the Premises after the expiration of the Term, such tenancy shall be month-to-month only and shall not constitute a renewal or extension for any further term. If Tenant remains in possession either with or without Landlord's consent, Monthly Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to 150% of the Monthly Rent payable during the last month of the Term, and any other sums due under this Lease shall be payable in the amount and at the times specified in this Lease. Such month-to- month tenancy shall be subject to every other term, condition and covenant contained in this Lease. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the expiration of the Term despite demand to do so by Landlord, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss or liability, including without limitation any claim made by a succeeding tenant, resulting from Tenant's failure to surrender. Landlord also may pursue any remedies available to it as a result of Tenant's holdover, either under this Lease, at law or in equity. 9.

Landlord may change the configuration, location or other elements of the Outside Areas, but Landlord may not reduce the number of parking spaces available to the Premises below the number required by applicable Laws to permit use of the Premises for the purposes set forth in this Lease, nor shall Landlord voluntarily reduce the number of parking spaces available to the Premises below the number of parking spaces available to the Premises as of the Commencement Date. In exercising any of the above rights, Landlord shall make a reasonable effort to minimize any disruption of Tenant's business. Tenant waives the provisions of Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code and any similar or successor law regarding Tenant's right to make repairs and deduct the expenses of such repairs from the Rent due under this Lease. (ii) Tenant to Pay Operating Expenses. Tenant shall pay, as -------------------------------- Additional Rent, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid or incurred by Landlord in maintaining, repairing and replacing the roof membrane and the HVAC system, and managing, maintaining, and repairing the Outside Areas (the "Operating Expenses") during the Term. The Operating Expenses shall Include, without limitation, the cost of any policies of insurance covering the Outside Areas, management fees paid to third parties or to management companies owned by, or management divisions of Landlord, and the cost of labor, materials, supplies and services used or consumed in maintaining, operating and repairing the roof membrane, the HVAC system and the Outside Areas, including maintaining, repairing and replacing, as needed, the roof membrane, the HVAC system and its components, landscaping and sprinkler systems, and maintaining, restriping, resurfacing, and repairing concrete walkways and paved parking areas. (iii) Monthly Payments. From and after the Commencement Date, ---------------- Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of each calendar month of the Term an amount estimated by Landlord to be the monthly Operating Expenses. The estimated monthly charge may be adjusted by Landlord at the end of any calendar month on the basis of Landlord's experience and reasonably anticipated costs. Any such adjustment shall be effective as of the calendar month next succeeding receipt by Tenant of written notice of such adjustment. Within 120 days following the end of each calendar year Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement of the actual Operating Expenses for the calendar Year and the payments made by Tenant with respect to such period. If Tenant's payments for the Operating Expenses are less than the amount of the actual Operating Expenses, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within 30 days after receipt of such statement. If Tenant's payments exceed the actual Operating Expenses, Landlord shall either offset the excess against the Operating Expenses next thereafter to become due to Landlord, or shall refund the amount of the overpayments to Tenant, in cash, as Landlord shall elect. There shall be appropriate prorations of the Operating Expenses as of the Commencement Date and expiration of the Term. (iv) Tenant's Right to Audit. Within six months after delivery to ----------------------- Tenant of any statement of actual Operating Expenses, Tenant shall have the right, by written notice to Landlord, to dispute any Operating Expenses reflected in such statement. If such dispute is not settled within 60 days after such notice has been delivered to Landlord, the dispute shall be resolved pursuant to an audit to be conducted by a firm of certified public accountants (an "Audit Professional") mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on an Audit Professional within 30 days, then Landlord and Tenant shall each, within 15 days, select an Audit Professional and the two Audit Professionals so selected shall select a third Audit Professional which shall be the Audit Professional to resolve the dispute. The Audit Professional selected (the "Selected Auditor") shall be entitled to review all books and records relating to the disputed Operating Expenses. Such review shall be conducted during normal business hours at the office of Landlord's property manager. If the Selected Auditor's determination shows that the aggregate Operating Expenses in the disputed statement exceed the actual Operating Expenses for the period, covered by such statement by an amount greater than five percent (5%), the cost of the audit shall be paid by Landlord; otherwise, the cost of the audit shall be paid by Tenant, if such determination reflects an underpayment of Operating Expenses by Tenant, then Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within 30 days thereafter, If such determination reflects an overpayment of Operating Expenses by Tenant, then such amount shall be credited against the next monthly installment(s) of Operating Expenses that are due hereunder. Landlord shall maintain all books and records supporting any statement of Operating Expenses for a period of not less than three years following the preparation of such statement. The rights and obligations of Tenant and Landlord under this Section 17.B.(iv) shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. C. Compliance with Laws. Tenant at its sole cost shall promptly comply -------------------- with all Laws in effect from time to time during the Term that relate to the use or occupancy of the Premises or privileges appurtenant to or in connection with the enjoyment of the Premises. If such Laws require any Alterations to the Land and/or the Premises, the Alterations shall be governed by Section 13 of this Lease. If, however, the Land and/or the Premises are not in compliance with all Laws applicable to the Land and/or the Premises on the date that Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant, then Landlord shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for bringing the same into compliance; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to, and Tenant shall remain solely responsible for, any compliance with Laws obligations that are triggered by the construction of the Tenant Improvements or the permitting for the same, including any upgrades to the Premises which may be required to comply with such Laws. D. Capital Costs. If Landlord's accountants reasonably determine, ------------- based on Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, that any amounts for which Tenant is responsible under this Section 17 must be capitalized rather than expensed, then each year during the Term Tenant shall pay only the properly chargeable portion of capitalized costs during such year based on Landlord's reasonable determination of the useful life of the applicable capital improvement, together with interest on the amortized balance at the Interest Rate. E. Tenant's Right to Perform Landlord's Obligations. If Landlord fails ------------------------------------------------ to perform any of its repair and maintenance obligations under Sections 17(A)(i) or 17(B)(i), and such failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after written notice from Tenant. Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform such repairs and/or maintenance. In the event of an emergency involving an immediate threat of personal injury or property damage, Tenant shall have the right to perform such repairs if Landlord fails to do so within twenty-four (24) hours after notice from Tenant. In either such event, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable costs incurred by Tenant to complete such repairs and/or maintenance within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant's written demand therefor, together with copies of paid invoices evidencing the costs incurred by Tenant. If Landlord fails to reimburse Tenant for such costs within such thirty (30) day period, such amount shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate from the date of expenditure by Tenant until reimbursed by Landlord. Any repairs and/or maintenance permitted herein shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner by licensed and bonded contractors. If Landlord objects to the repairs and/or maintenance performed by Tenant or the expenses incurred by Tenant in performing such work, Landlord shall deliver written notice of Landlord's objection to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlords receipt of Tenant's invoice evidencing the expenses incurred by Tenant. Landlord's notice shall set forth in reasonable detail Landlord's reasons for its claim that such repairs and/or maintenance were not required or were not Landlord's obligation under the terms of this Lease, and/or the reasons for Landlord's dispute of the expenses incurred by Tenant in performing such work. If Landlord and Tenant fail to resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days after Landlord has notified Tenant of Landlord's objections, the matter shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1280 et seq. 18. LIENS Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant hereby defends, indemnifies and holds harmless Landlord and Landlord's Agents from any and all claims, liability, cost and expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) in connection with or arising out of any such lien or claim of lien. Tenant shall cause any such lien imposed to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond reasonably acceptable to Landlord within 30 days after written request by Landlord. Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of Tenant's intention to perform work on the Premises which might result in any claim of lien at least 20 days prior to the commencement of such work, so that Landlord may post and record a Notice of Nonresponsibility or similar notice. If Tenant fails to so remove any such lien within the prescribed 30 day period, then Landlord may do so at Tenant's expense and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such amounts upon demand. Such reimbursement shall include all costs incurred by Landlord including Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees, with interest from the date of expenditure at the Interest Rate. 19. RIGHT TO ENTER THE PREMISES Tenant shall permit Landlord and Landlord's Agents to enter the Premises at all reasonable times with at least 24 hours' prior written notice, except for emergencies in which case no notice shall be required, to inspect the same, to post Notices of Nonresponsibility and similar notices and "For Sale" signs (in form and content reasonably acceptable to Tenant), to show the Premises to interested parties such as prospective lenders and purchasers, to make necessary repairs, to discharge Tenant's obligations under this Lease when Tenant has failed to do so after expiration of any cure period provided in this Lease, and at any reasonable time within six months prior to the expiration of the Term, to place upon the Premises ordinary "For Lease" signs and to show the Premises to prospective tenants. The above rights are subject to Tenant's reasonable security regulations. In exercising any such rights, Landlord shall make a reasonable effort to minimize any disruption of Tenant's business. 20. SIGNS Tenant may install building and monument identification signage, subject to all Laws, the CC&R's and Landlord's prior written approval as to location, size, design, color and other physical aspects, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall not install any other sign, display or advertising material that is visible from the exterior of the Premises, except that Tenant may display, on a temporary basis only, such advertising or promotional material as is approved by the City of Sunnyvale. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost of any signs, as well as their installation, maintenance and removal. If Tenant fails to maintain its signs, or if Tenant fails to remove its signs upon termination of this Lease, Landlord may do so at Tenant's expense, which Tenant shall pay upon demand with interest from the date of expenditure at the Interest Rate. 21. INSURANCE A. Indemnification. Subject to the provisions of Section 22, Tenant --------------- shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord's Agents from and against any and all claims, loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of the use or occupancy of the Premises or the Land or any part thereof by Tenant, or the acts or omissions of Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors or invitees. The foregoing indemnity shall not, however, apply to any claims, loss, liability or expense to the extent that any of the same arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's Agents or from the breach of any of Landlord's obligations or representations under this Lease. Subject to the provisions of Section 22, Landlord shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Tenant and Tenant's officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's Agents. The obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Section 21.A. shall survive this Lease. B. Tenant's Insurance. For the protection of Tenant and Landlord, as ------------------ their interests may appear, Tenant at its sole cost shall maintain in full force and effect at all times during the Term, as well as during any period of early entry, policies of insurance issued by a responsible carrier or carriers reasonably acceptable to Landlord which afford the following coverages: (i) Commercial general liability insurance in an amount not less than $5,000,000.00 combined single limit for both bodily injury and property damage on a per occurrence basis which includes blanket contractual liability broad form property damage, personal injury, completed operations, products liability, and fire damage legal (in an amount not less than $25,000.00), naming Landlord and Landlord's Agents as additional insureds. (ii) "All Risk" or "causes of loss - special form" property insurance (including, without limitation, vandalism, malicious mischief, inflation endorsement, and sprinkler leakage endorsement) on Tenant's Personal Property located on or in the Premises. Such insurance shall be in the full amount of the replacement cost, as the same may, from time to time increase as a result of inflation or otherwise, and shall be in a form providing coverage comparable to the coverage provided in the standard ISO All-Risk form. As long, as this Lease is in effect, the proceeds of such policy shall be used for the repair or replacement of the items so insured. Landlord shall have no interest in the insurance upon Tenant's Personal Property. (iii) Boiler and machinery insurance, including but not limited to, steam pipes, pressure pipes, condensation return pipes and other pressure vessels and HVAC equipment, including miscellaneous electrical apparatus, in an amount satisfactory to Landlord. (iv) Worker's Compensation Insurance, as required by applicable Laws. C. Premises Insurance. During the Term, as well as during any period ------------------ of early entry, Landlord shall maintain "All Risk" or "causes of loss - special form" property insurance (including without limitation vandalism, malicious mischief, inflation endorsement, sprinkler leakage endorsement, and. at Landlord's option, earthquake and flood coverage) on the Premises in the full amount of the replacement cost, as the same may from time to time increase as a result of inflation or otherwise and shall be in a form providing coverage comparable to coverage in the standard ISO All-Risk form. Such insurance shall exclude coverage of all Tenant's Personal Property on or in the Premises, but shall include the Tenant Improvements. Notwithstanding the above, during the period of early entry, Landlord may elect to carry course of construction insurance providing similar coverage. The property insurance shall also include insurance against loss of rents on an "All Risk" basis, including earthquake and flood, in an amount equal to the Rent, and any other sums payable under the Lease, for a period not to exceed 12 months from the date of loss. Such insurance shall name Landlord and Landlord's Agents as named insureds and include a lender's loss payable endorsement in favor of Landlord's lender (Form 438 BFU Endorsement). Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the costs of such policy, monthly, or upon such other periodic basis as Landlord shall elect. If the insurance premiums are increased, Tenant shall pay such increase within 10 days of notice of such increase. If, however, Landlord elects to maintain earthquake insurance coverage for the Premises as permitted herein. Tenant shall be required to pay only such portion of the premium for such insurance coverage as is then considered to be a commercially reasonable rate for such insurance for properties similar to the Premises, but in no event shall Tenant be required to pay more than $45,000.00 per year for earthquake insurance premiums. D. Increased Coverage. Upon demand, Tenant shall provide Landlord, at ------------------ Tenant's expense, with such increased amount of existing insurance, and such other insurance as Landlord or Landlord's lender may reasonably require to afford Landlord and Landlord's lender adequate protection. E. Co-Insurer. If, because Tenant fails to comply with the above ---------- provisions, Landlord is adjudged a co-insurer by its insurance carrier, then any loss or damage Landlord shall sustain by reason thereof, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, shall be borne by Tenant and shall be paid by Tenant upon receipt of a bill therefor and evidence of such loss. F. Insurance Requirements. All such insurance shall (i) be in a form ---------------------- satisfactory to Landlord, (ii) be carried with companies that have a general policy holder's rating of not less than "A" and a financial rating of not less than Class "X" in the most current edition of Best's Insurance Reports, (iii) ------------------------- provide that such policies shall not be subject to material alteration or cancellation except after at least 30 days' prior written notice to Landlord; and (iv) be primary as to Landlord. The policy, or policies, or duly executed certificates for them, together with satisfactory evidence of payment of the premium thereon shall be deposited with Landlord prior to Tenant entering, onto the Premises, and upon renewal of such policies, not less than 30 days prior to the expiration of the term of such coverage. If Tenant fails to procure and maintain the insurance required under this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, order such insurance at Tenant's expense and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor upon demand. Such reimbursement shall include all costs incurred by Landlord, including Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees, with interest thereon from the date of expenditure at the Interest Rate. G. Landlord's Disclaimer. Landlord and Landlord's Agents shall not be --------------------- liable for any loss or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, glass, tile or sheetrock, steam, gas, electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Premises, or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein or from the roof, street or subsurface or whatsoever, unless caused by or due to the gross negligence or willful acts of Landlord or Landlord's Agents. Landlord and Landlord's Agents shall not be liable for any latent defect in the Premises, except for Landlord's obligation to maintain and repair the structural portions of the Premises as described in Section 17.A. (i). Tenant shall give prompt written notice to Landlord in case of a casualty, accident or repair needed in the Premises. In no event shall Landlord or Landlord's Agents be liable for Tenant's lost profits, consequential or exemplary damages, no matter how caused. Without limiting the above, Landlord shall not be required to provide, and Tenant expressly waives, any security services with respect to the Premises or the Land. Landlord shall have no liability for injury or losses due to theft or burglary or caused by unauthorized persons in the Premises or on the Land. 22. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION Landlord and Tenant each hereby release and waive all rights of recovery against the other and their respective agents, and employees on account of loss or damage occasioned to such waiving party for its property or the property of others under its control to the extent that such loss or damage would be insured against under any insurance policies required by this Lease or is otherwise insured against under any other policies which may be in force at the time of such loss or damage, without regard to the negligence of the party so released. Tenant and Landlord each shall cause the insurance policies obtained by it under this Lease to provide that the insurance company waives all right of recovery by way of subrogation against either Landlord or Tenant in connection with any damage covered by such policy. 23. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION A. Landlord's Obligation to Rebuild. If the Premises are damaged or -------------------------------- destroyed, Landlord shall promptly and diligently repair the Premises unless it has the right to terminate this Lease as provided below and it elects to so terminate. B. Right to Terminate. Landlord shall have the right to terminate this ------------------ Lease if any of the following events occurs: (i) Insurance proceeds will not be available to pay the cost of such repair, excluding any deductible for which Tenant is responsible; (ii) The Premises cannot, with reasonable diligence, be fully rep aired by Landlord within 90 days after the date of the damage or destruction; or (iii) The Premises cannot be safely repaired because of the presence of hazardous factors, including without limitation earthquake faults, radiation, chemical waste and other similar dangers. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of its election to terminate and the basis for such termination within 30 days after such damage or destruction, and this Lease shall terminate 15 days after the date Tenant receives such notice. If Landlord elects not to terminate this Lease, subject to Tenants termination right set forth below. Landlord shall promptly commence the process of obtaining necessary permits and approvals and repair of the Premises as soon as practicable, and this Lease will continue in full force and effect. All insurance proceeds from insurance under Section 22, excluding proceeds for Tenant's Personal Property, shall be disbursed and paid to Landlord. Tenant shall be required to pay to Landlord the amount of any deductibles payable in connection with any insured casualties, except to the extent the casualty was caused by Landlord's negligence or willful misconduct. Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease, if the Premises cannot, with reasonable diligence, be fully repaired within 180 days from the date of damage or destruction. The determination of the estimated repair period shall be made by Landlord in its good faith business judgment within 30 days after such damage or destruction. Landlord shall deliver written notice of the repair period to Tenant after such determination has been made and Tenant shall exercise its right to terminate this Lease, if at all, by written notice to Landlord delivered within 30 days after delivery of Landlord's notice. C. Limited Obligation to Repair. Landlord's obligation, should it ----------------------------- elect or be obligated to repair or rebuild, shall be limited to the Premises, Tenant Improvements and Outside Areas. D. Abatement of Rent. Rent shall be temporarily abated ----------------- proportionately, but only to the extent of any proceeds received by Landlord from rental abatement insurance described in Section 21 (C), during any period when, by reason of such damage or destruction, Landlord reasonably determines that there is substantial interference with Tenant's use of the Premises, having regard to the extent to which Tenant may be required to discontinue Tenant's use of the Premises. Such abatement shall commence upon the damage or destruction and end upon substantial completion by Landlord of the repair or reconstruction which Landlord is obligated or undertakes to do. Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the Premises, damage to Tenant's Personal Property or any inconvenience occasioned by such damage, repair or restoration. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, and Section 1933, Subdivision 4, of the California Civil Code, and the provisions of any similar law subsequently enacted. E. Damage Near End of Term. Anything in this Lease to the contrary ----------------------- notwithstanding, if the Premises are destroyed or damaged during the last 12 months of the Term, then either Landlord or Tenant may cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage if the Premises cannot be restored within 60 days from the date of such damage. If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to so terminate this Lease, the repair of such damage shall be governed by this Section 23. 24. CONDEMNATION If title to all of the Premises (or to a portion of the Premises such that, in Tenant's reasonable opinion, the remaining part is not reasonably suitable for Tenant's continued occupancy for the uses permitted by this Lease) is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date that possession of the Premises or part thereof is taken. A sale by Landlord to any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending shall be deemed a taking under the power of eminent domain for all purposes of this Section. If any part of the Premises is taken and the remaining part, in Tenant's reasonable opinion, is reasonably suitable for Tenant's continued occupancy for the uses permitted by this Lease, then this Lease shall, as to the part so taken, terminate as of the date that possession of such part of the Premises is taken and the Rent and other sums payable under this Lease shall be reduced in the same proportion that Tenant's use of the Premises is reduced. Each party hereby waives the provisions of Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the Premises. No award for any partial or entire taking shall be apportioned. Tenant assigns to Landlord its interest in any award which may be made in such taking or condemnation, together with any and all rights of Tenant arising in or to the same or any part thereof-, provided that, Tenant shall not be required to assign to Landlord any separate award made to Tenant for the (a) taking of Tenant's Personal Property, (b) interruption of Tenant's business or (c) Tenant's relocation costs. 25. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING A. Landlord's Consent. Tenant shall not enter into a Sublet without ------------------ Landlord's prior written consent. Landlord's consent shall not be unreasonably withheld provided that: (i) Tenant has requested in writing Landlord's prior consent; (ii) the proposed Subtenant is a reputable party of reasonable financial worth in light of the responsibilities involved and Tenant shall have provided Landlord with reasonable proof thereof, including without limitation such financial information as Landlord may reasonably request; (iii) Tenant is not in default at the time it requests such consent; and (iv) no alteration of the Premises will be required unless approved in writing by Landlord pursuant to Section 13 of this Lease. Tenant's request for consent shall include information reasonably sufficient to evaluate the above criteria, as well as a copy of the assignment or sublease to be signed by the proposed Subtenant, including a detailed description of the premises to be Sublet and a detailed statement of all terms and conditions of the proposed Sublet. Landlord may request additional information for evaluation if Landlord reasonably deems the information submitted by Tenant to be insufficient. Landlord shall have 15 days after receipt of Tenant's written request and all required information in which to review and respond to the request. Consent by Landlord to any one Sublet shall not be construed as relieving Tenant from obtaining Landlord's express written consent to any further Sublet. Landlord's consent to any requested Sublet shall not waive Landlord's right to refuse to consent to any other such request or to terminate this Lease if such request is made, all as provided in this Lease. Each Subtenant shall agree in writing, for the benefit of Landlord, to assume, to be bound by, and to perform the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease, Tenant shall not be released from personal liability for the performance of each term, condition and covenant of this Lease by reason of Landlord's consent to a Sublet, unless Landlord specifically grants such release in writing. B. Landlord's Right to Terminate. Notwithstanding anything in this ----------------------------- Section 25 to the contrary, in the event Tenant requests Landlord's consent to Sublet all or any part of the Premises or all or any part of its interest in this Lease. Landlord shall have the right to: (i) consent to such Sublet; (ii) refuse to grant such consent, with such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (but subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 25); or (iii) elect to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises proposed to be Sublet if such Sublet is for the then remaining, Term of this Lease; provided that, if Landlord refuses to grant such consent and elects to terminate the Lease as to such portion of the Premises, Tenant shall have the right within 10 days after notice of Landlord's exercise of its right to terminate to withdraw Tenant's request for such consent and remain in possession of the Premises under the terms and conditions of this Lease. In the event the Lease is terminated as set forth above, such termination shall be effective as of the date set forth in a written notice from Landlord to Tenant, which date shall in no event be less than 30 days, nor more than 60 days, following such notice. If Landlord consents to the Sublet, Tenant may thereafter enter into a valid Sublet of the Premises or portion thereof, upon the terms and conditions and with the proposed Subtenant set forth in the information furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 25(A), subject, however, at Landlord's election, to the condition that 50% of any excess of the Subrent over the Rent (less reasonable attorneys' fees and leasing commissions paid by Tenant on the Sublease) shall be paid to Landlord. Any such Subrent shall be payable to Landlord concurrent with the Monthly Rent under Section 5(A). C. Proration. If a portion of the Premises is Sublet, the prorata --------- share of the Rent attributable to such partial area of the Premises shall be determined by Landlord by dividing the Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease by the total leasable square footage of the Premises and multiplying the resulting quotient (the per square foot rent) by the number of square feet of the Premises which are Sublet. D. Permitted Transfers. So long as International Network Services is ------------------- the Tenant in possession of the Premises and is not in default, Tenant shall have the right, subject to the following terms and conditions and without the consent of Landlord, to Sublet its interest in the Lease (i) to any corporation which is a successor to Tenant either by merger or consolidation or (ii) to a purchaser of all or substantially all of Tenant's assets (provided such purchaser shall also have assumed substantially all of Tenant's liabilities), or (iii) to a corporation or other entity which shall control, be under the control of, or be under common control with International Network Services, (the term "control" shall be deemed to mean ownership of more than 50% of the outstanding voting stock of a corporation, or other majority equity and control interest if Tenant is not a corporation; any such entity is a "Related Entity"), upon the conditions that (1) the principal purpose of such Sublet is not the acquisition of Tenant is interest in this Lease (except if the Sublet is made to a Related Entity and is made for a valid intracorporate business purpose and is not made to circumvent the provisions of this Section 25), and (2) any such Subtenant shall have a net worth and annual income and cash flow, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, after giving effect to such Sublet, equal to or greater that Tenant's as of the Execution Date, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith. Within ten days after execution thereof, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (x) a duplicate original of the instrument evidencing the Subrent, (y) if applicable, evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord establishing compliance by the Subtenant with the net worth, income and cash flow requirements of clause (2) above, and (z) an instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, duly executed by the Subtenant, in which the Subtenant assumes and agrees to be bound by the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease. E. Landlord's Review Costs. All documents utilized by Tenant to ----------------------- evidence any Sublet shall be subject to prior approval of Landlord or its counsel. and in the event any alterations to the Premises are proposed, Landlord's architect and engineers. Tenant shall pay promptly upon billing any and all reasonable fees of attorneys and other consultants and other costs reasonably incurred by Landlord for the review or preparation of any documents in connection with a proposed Sublet, up to a maximum of $3,000.00 per Sublet. 26. DEFAULT A. Tenant's Default. A default under this Lease by Tenant shall exist ------------------ if any of the following, occurs: (i) If Tenant fails to pay Rent or any other sum required to be paid under this Lease within five business days after the date such Rent or other sum is due; or (ii) If Tenant fails to perform any term, covenant or condition of this Lease except those requiring the payment of money, and Tenant fails to cure such breach within 20 days after written notice from Landlord where such breach could reasonably be cured within such 20 day period; provided that, where such failure could not reasonably be cured within the 20 day period, Tenant shall not be in default if it commences such, performance within the 20 day period and diligently prosecutes the same to completion; or (iii) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; the filing, by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or of a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed with 60 days after such filing); the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of all or substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant with 60 days after such appointment; the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of all or substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within 60 days thereafter; or if Tenant is generally not paying its debts as they become due. B. Remedies. Upon a default, Landlord shall have the following -------- remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by this Lease, at law or in equity, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative: (i) Landlord may continue this Lease in full force and effect, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as long as Landlord does not terminate this Lease, and Landlord shall have the right to collect Rent when due. (ii) Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises at any time by giving written notice to that effect, and relet the Premises or any part thereof. Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises or any part thereof, including without limitation broker's commissions, attorneys' fees and costs, expenses of cleaning and redecorating the Premises required by the reletting and like costs. Reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining Term. No act by Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant shall terminate this Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant's right to possession. On termination, Landlord has the right to remove all Tenant's Personal Property and store the same at Tenant's cost and to recover from Tenant as damages: (1) The worth at the time of award of unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable which had been earned at the time of termination; plus (2) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable which would have been payable after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (3) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable for the balance or the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus (4) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment approximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease, or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom, including without limitation any costs incurred by Landlord: (w) in retaking possession of the Premises; (x) in maintaining, repairing, preserving, restoring, replacing, cleaning, altering or rehabilitating the Premises or any portion thereof, including such acts for reletting to a new tenant or tenants; (y) for leasing commissions; or (z) for any other costs necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises; plus (5) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the above as may be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of California.
