Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such person as an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or her against the expenses that such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred. Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, each of which will become effective upon the closing of this offering, provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

 

II-1


Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except for liability for any:

 

   

transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit;

 

   

act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

 

   

unlawful payment of dividends or redemption of shares; or

 

   

breach of a director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders.

 

Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws include such a provision. Expenses incurred by any officer or director in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition shall be paid by us upon delivery to us of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by us.

 

Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, among other things, that a director who willfully or negligently approves of an unlawful payment of dividends or an unlawful stock purchase or redemption may be held liable for such actions. A director who was either absent when the unlawful actions were approved, or dissented at the time, may avoid liability by causing his or her dissent to such actions to be entered in the books containing minutes of the meetings of the board of directors at the time such action occurred or immediately after such absent director receives notice of the unlawful acts.

 

As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, we have entered into indemnity agreements with each of our directors and officers that require us to indemnify such persons against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), witness fees, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts incurred (including expenses of a derivative action) in connection with any action, suit or proceeding or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, inquiry hearing or investigation, whether threatened, pending or completed, to which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, an officer or an employee of Jazz Pharmaceuticals or any of its affiliated enterprises, provided that such person’s conduct did not constitute a breach of his or her duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, and was not an act or omission not in good faith or which involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of laws. The indemnity agreements also set forth certain procedures that will apply in the event of a claim for indemnification thereunder.

 

At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors or officers as to which indemnification is required or permitted, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for indemnification.

 

We have an insurance policy covering our officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or otherwise. Messrs. Clammer, Michelson and Momtazee are further insured by liability insurance that has been purchased by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. on their behalf for any excess liabilities that are not covered by our liability insurance. Mr. Colella is insured by liability insurance purchased on his behalf by, and indemnified pursuant to the governing agreements of, Versant Ventures for his service on our board of directors.

 

We plan to enter into an underwriting agreement that provides that the underwriters are obligated, under some circumstances, to indemnify our directors, officers and controlling persons against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred

 

II-8


or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

  (1)   For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

  (2)   For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

3.4 Notes on Milestone Payments.

(a) Each Milestone Payment shall be made only once regardless of how many times such Milestones are achieved for each Product, except for Pre-Commercial Milestone number 5 and Commercial Milestone number 2 above which may be paid more than once (but only once for each [ * ]). No payment shall be owed for a Milestone which is not reached (except that, upon achievement of a Milestone for a particular Product, any previous Milestone for that Product for which payment would have been due hereunder but was not yet made shall be deemed achieved and payment therefore shall be made), if such a payment was due under the terms hereof.

(b) In the event that more than one Milestone is achieved with respect to the same Product at one time, then all applicable payments under Section 3.3 shall be made.

(c) For purposes of Milestone payments, an “indication” means [ * ].

(d) For purposes of [ * ] in the event federal governmental pricing approval is required to commercialize the Product in the U.S., then the Milestone Payment for [ * ] shall not become due until the earlier of (i) [ * ] or (ii) [ * ] of Marketing Approval.

3.5 Additional Consideration Payments. As further consideration for the assignment and transfer of the Purchased Assets pursuant to Section 2.1, Jazz Pharmaceuticals will pay GGL and SB the following percentage (each an “Additional Consideration Payment”) on Net Sales of Product in the Territory in each calendar year:

(a) with respect to Net Sales of Product (other than Combination Products) in countries of the Territory as to which payments are due, in each calendar year:

(i) [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of annual Net Sales of Product up to and including [ * ] U.S. Dollars (U.S. $[ * ]) in such calendar year; and

(ii) [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of annual Net Sales of Product in excess of [ * ] U.S. Dollars (U.S. $[ * ]) in such calendar year.

(b) After calculating the total Additional Consideration Payments due under Section 3.5(a) for all Net Sales in the Territory, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall determine the

[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.


amount of Net Sales in the U.S. and shall pay SB [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) or [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of such Net Sales in the U.S., as appropriate, at the Additional Consideration Payment level required by Section 3.5(a). After calculating the total Additional Consideration Payments due under Section 3.5(a) for all Net Sales in the Territory, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall determine the amount of Net Sales in Europe and the ROW and shall pay GGL [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) or [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of such Net Sales in Europe and the ROW, as appropriate, at the Additional Consideration Payment level required by Section 3.5(a). In no event will any calculations under this paragraph result in a larger payment by Jazz Pharmaceuticals than would have been made had the entire payment been made to one entity. Jazz Pharmaceuticals will use its Diligent Efforts to divide the Additional Consideration Payments as described above. If GSK believes that the division of the payment was not done correctly, GSK will, itself, reapportion the payments between the GSK entities and will not have any recourse to Jazz Pharmaceuticals or request any audits as to the allocation between the GSK entities, and Jazz Pharmaceuticals will have no liability to GSK with respect to any division of the payments as described above.

(c) With respect to Net Sales of Combination Products in the Territory in each reporting period in each country:

(i) if and to the extent all therapeutically active agents comprising the Combination Product are marketed and sold separately in such country in commercially relevant quantities in such Payment Period (as defined in Section 4.1) and the Gross Selling Price for each agent can be separately determined for such Payment Period, Net Sales of each Combination Product for determining the Additional Consideration Payment payable with respect to such Combination Product for such country shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by A divided by the sum of A plus B (A/(A+B)), in which A is the Gross Selling Price of the single therapeutically active agent Product contained in the Combination Product sold in such country during such Payment Period and B is the Gross Selling Price of the other single therapeutically active agent(s) contained in the Combination Product sold in such country during such Payment Period. All Gross Selling Prices of the therapeutically active ingredients in the Combination Product shall be calculated as the average Gross Selling Price of the therapeutically active ingredients in such Combination Products during the applicable Payment Period for which the Net Sales are being calculated.

(ii) In the event that (a) separate sales, in commercially relevant quantities, in a particular country of the other therapeutically active agent (not the Product) comprising a single compound as a therapeutically active ingredient are made during the Payment Period in which the sale was made or if the Gross Selling Price for such other therapeutically active agent (not the Product) can be determined for a Payment Period, but (b) there are no such separate sales of the Product as the sole therapeutically active agent or such separate sales of the Product cannot be determined for such Payment Period, then the Net Sales of the Combination Product in such country for determining the Additional Consideration Payment payable with respect to such Combination Product for such country for such period shall be calculated by multiplying Net Sales of such Combination Product in such country by the number one (1) minus the result of

[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.


dividing X over Y (1—(X/Y)), in which X is the Gross Selling Price of the therapeutically active ingredient that is not a Product sold separately in commercially reasonable quantities during the Payment Period in question and Y is the Gross Selling Price of the Combination Product sold in the Payment Period in question in such country.

(iii) If neither of the single therapeutically active agent components of the Combination Product is sold separately in commercially relevant quantities in a country during a particular Payment Period, then the Additional Consideration Payment payable on such Combination Product in such country for such period will be [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the Additional Consideration Payment that would be due on a Product that is not a Combination Product.

(d) Any Additional Consideration Payment due on Combination Products shall be paid to SB for Net Sales of Combination Products in the U.S. and to GGL for Net Sales of Combination Products in the ROW. After determining the total Additional Consideration Payments due on Combination Products in accordance with Section 3.5(c) above, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall determine the Additional Consideration Payments due on Net Sales in the U.S. and in ROW, respectively, and shall pay such amounts to SB and GGL, respectively.

3.6 Starting Date of Additional Consideration Payment Obligations. The obligation of Jazz Pharmaceuticals to pay Additional Consideration Payments to GGL and SB at the rates specified in Section 3.5 will become effective on a country by country basis on the date of the First Commercial Sale of a Product in such country.

3.7 Termination of Additional Consideration Payment Obligations. Additional Consideration Payments will be payable on Net Sales of Products in the U.S. until the expiration of the [ * ]. Additional Consideration Payments will be payable on Net Sales of Products in all countries of Europe until the expiration of the [ * ]. Additional Consideration Payments will be payable on Net Sales of Products in all countries in the ROW until the expiration of the [ * ]. Additional Consideration on Net Sales of Products [ * ] is being paid in this manner as an administrative convenience to the Parties as a result of the difficulty in allocating value for each of the Patents [ * ].

3.8 Transfer and Other Taxes. Jazz Pharmaceuticals will be responsible for and will pay all foreign, federal, state and local taxes payable in connection with the acquisition and transfer of the Purchased Assets to Jazz Pharmaceuticals by GSK. GSK will be responsible for and will pay all foreign, federal, state and local taxes payable on any income or gain resulting from the sale of the Purchased Assets to Jazz Pharmaceuticals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall not be required to pay (i) any VAT in connection with the transfer of the Purchased Assets, or (ii) any tax as a result of the separate payment to SB pursuant to Sections 3.3 or 3.5 that it would not have been required to pay if making only one payment to GGL. In the event that Jazz Pharmaceuticals is required to withhold and remit any tax to the revenue authorities in any country in the Territory regarding the Purchase Price, any Milestone payment or any Additional Consideration Payments payable to GGL or SB due to the laws of such country, such amount shall be withheld by Jazz Pharmaceuticals, and Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall notify GSK and promptly furnish GSK with copies of any documentation evidencing such withholding.

ARTICLE 4—MANNER OF PAYMENTS; REPORTS; DILIGENCE

4.1 Manner of Additional Consideration Payments.

(a) Jazz Pharmaceuticals will deliver to GSK within sixty (60) days following the end of each “Payment Period”, meaning a calendar quarter ending on March 31st, June 30th, September 30th or December 31st, the Additional Consideration Payment Statements (as defined in Section 4.2), along with Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ payments to GGL and SB of any Additional Consideration Payment due and payable to GGL and SB for such Payment Period.

(b) Each Additional Consideration Payment will be computed and paid in U.S. Dollars. Monetary conversion calculations from the currency of a foreign country in which a Product is sold into U.S. Dollars will be made on a quarterly basis on the last day of each applicable calendar quarter using the exchange rate reported on the last Business Day of such calendar quarter in the Wall Street Journal, eastern edition.

(c) Whenever any Additional Consideration Payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment will be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day.

(d) In the event that any payment due hereunder is not made when due, the payment shall accrue interest from that date due at the rate of [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) per month, or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is less, and shall be calculated based on the number of days that the payment is delinquent. The payment of such interest shall not limit GSK from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

4.2 Additional Consideration Payment Statements. Each Additional Consideration Payment required hereunder will be accompanied by a report (“Additional Consideration Payment Statement”) for the preceding Payment Period containing the following information:

(a) itemized accounting of the total Net Sales for Product during the applicable Payment Period in each country of sale in sufficient detail to permit confirmation of the accuracy of the Additional Consideration Payment;

(b) adjustments and calculation of Net Sales for the applicable Payment Period in each country of sale; and

(c) total Net Sales in U.S. dollars, together with the exchange rates used for conversion.

If no payment is due to GGL or SB for any Payment Period, the Additional Consideration Payment Statement will so state. All Additional Consideration Payment Statements will be considered Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ Confidential Information under this Agreement, but GSK may disclose such Confidential Information in accordance with Section 11.2 or Section 11.3.

4.3 Additional Consideration Payment Post-Termination Report. Jazz Pharmaceuticals will make a written report to GSK within thirty (30) days after the date of any termination of

[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.


Additional Consideration Payment obligations under this Agreement, stating in such report the number, description and Net Sales of Products sold or otherwise disposed of and on which an Additional Consideration Payment is payable hereunder that was not previously reported to GSK.

4.4 Audit. Upon the written request of GSK (but not more frequently than [ * ]), GSK will have the right, upon thirty (30) days advance notice to Jazz Pharmaceuticals and at a mutually agreeable time, to have an independent certified public accountant or like individual reasonably acceptable to Jazz Pharmaceuticals (the “Auditor”) inspect, during normal business hours, Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ directly applicable records for the preceding two (2) years for the purpose of determining the accuracy of Additional Consideration Payment Statements and the associated Additional Consideration Payment made to GGL and SB pursuant to this Agreement. The results of any such examination shall be made available to Jazz Pharmaceuticals. In the event the Auditor concludes that there was an underpayment of the total Additional Consideration Payment to GGL and SB together, the underpayment will be paid by Jazz Pharmaceuticals to GGL or SB or both, as applicable (but subject to the provisions of Section 3.5(b) concerning allocations between GGL and SB), within sixty (60) Business Days after the date Jazz Pharmaceuticals receives such Auditor’s written report; provided, however, if Jazz Pharmaceuticals desires to contest such audit results, Jazz Pharmaceuticals may do so by submitting the results of the audit to arbitration through JAMS New York or San Francisco offices within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such audit, and the arbitration shall be final and binding on GSK and Jazz Pharmaceuticals. Pending the results of such arbitration, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall be entitled to withhold any disputed amounts claimed by GSK as a result of the audit. In the event the Auditor concludes that there was an overpayment of Additional Consideration Payment to GGL or SB or both, as applicable, the overpayment will be credited toward the next Additional Consideration Payment to be paid by Jazz Pharmaceuticals to GGL or SB or both, as applicable, under this Agreement until fully credited; provided, however, that in the event no further Additional Consideration Payment will become due under this Agreement, such overpayment will be paid by GGL or SB or both, as applicable, to Jazz Pharmaceuticals within sixty (60) Business Days after the date GSK receives such Auditor’s written report. If the underpayment of Additional Consideration is greater than [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the Additional Consideration Payment determined by the Auditor to be payable to GSK, the reasonable fees and expenses charged by the Auditor will be paid by Jazz Pharmaceuticals; otherwise GSK will pay the reasonable fees and expenses charged by such Auditor. The Auditor will report to GSK only its conclusions as to whether Jazz Pharmaceuticals is in compliance with its Additional Consideration Payment obligations and the amount of any underpayment or overpayment, and such report and the conclusions contained therein will constitute Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ Confidential Information in accordance with Section 11.1.

4.5 Diligence.

Any time period described in Section 4.5(a) or (b) shall be extended for the same period of time as any delay caused by GSK in transferring the Purchased Assets to Jazz Pharmaceuticals or any delay which was outside the control of Jazz Pharmaceuticals.

4.6 Cessation or Suspension of Development Efforts. If Jazz Pharmaceuticals ceases or suspends development efforts for [ * ] and the other Products covered by the Patents (such that efforts have been suspended with respect to all of the Compounds) for [ * ], such cessation or suspension of development efforts shall constitute a failure of Diligent Efforts by Jazz Pharmaceuticals and a material breach of this Agreement.

they have reached an impasse; (iii) the Parties agree in writing that they have reached an impasse; or (iv) the Parties have not reached a settlement within sixty (60) days of the initiation of the mediation.

(b) SDS shall from time to time submit to audits and inspections by Orphan during normal business hours or at any other time during which the services being audited are ongoing, including but not limited to, audits of regulatory and quality assurance SOPs and of records of contacts with regulatory agencies, provided the scope of any such audit or inspection shall be limited to information and facilities pertaining to Orphan’s program.

(c) No employee of SDS who has been the subject of any disciplinary action by any State Board of Pharmacy shall be entitled to perform Covered Services.

Section 3.6 Returns and Replacement. In the event that Product is damaged in transit as a result of SDS’ negligence or its designated shipper, SDS will replace the Product to the Patient free of charge once the damaged Product is returned to SDS. SDS will monitor all reports of lost Product for the potential for abuse and diversion. SDS will cooperate with state and federal authorities fully in any investigations of lost Product, and will provide reports of such loss to Orphan on a monthly basis for the purpose of allowing Orphan to track the Product and satisfy its FDA reporting requirements. SDS will investigate the loss of Product by interviewing the Patient, and/or physician, report the loss to Orphan and to the appropriate regulatory authorities, as required by law, and record the loss in the Patient’s file. Where there is suspicion of abuse or diversion, SDS will contact the Orphan designee responsible for DEA issues, and lost Product will not be replaced without Orphan’s approval. Where abuse or diversion is not suspected, SDS will replace the lost Product at no charge to the Patient in the event such loss is the result of SDS’ negligence or its designated shipper and record the shipment in the Patient file. SDS will treat a repeat request for lost Product as suspicion of abuse or diversion and report it to the Orphan designee responsible for DEA issues, and SDS will not replace the lost Product without Orphan’s approval. For damaged Product, SDS will make a good faith effort to arrange for the damaged Product to be returned to SDS. Upon receipt of damaged Product, SDS will keep the damaged Product in a secure locked area, and will dispose of it at SDS’ cost in compliance with the applicable SOP for destruction of Product. If Product is returned to SDS due to a complaint of Product quality (i.e., Product taste, appearance, or faulty PIBA), Orphan shall reimburse SDS for the price paid by SDS to Orphan, if any, for such Product and for shipping costs associated with return of Product and SDS’ sending of Product for quality assurance testing at Orphan’s request. SDS shall not be required to disclose any Patient Confidential Information to Orphan pursuant to this Section 3.6 to the extent such disclosure is not permitted under HIPAA and other federal and state law.

Section 3.9 Territory.

writing that it does not consider a particular shipment to conform, together with supporting documentation specifying the manner in which the Product fails to meet such warranties or the Specifications, within [ * ] of receipt of such shipment (or, [ * ] within [ * ]. ORPHAN will analyze (or cause to be analyzed by its designated product manufacturer) each shipment of Product using the validated methods approved by the FDA for release of Product. Such testing will be done for acceptance or rejection of the lot. If ORPHAN gives Catalytica notice of rejection, Catalytica shall thereupon be given access to the shipment in question to conduct its own analysis thereof, and the parties will endeavor to agree amicably as to whether or not the shipment does conform to the Specifications and such other warranties and, if not, whether such non-compliance was due to any breach on the part of Catalytica.

In the event that the parties are unable to agree as to whether or not the shipment conforms with the Specifications or other warranties set forth in Section 8.1(b), the question will be submitted to an independent quality control laboratory which the parties shall mutually agree upon. Cost for the independent quality control laboratory shall be [ * ]. During the pendency of a dispute that requires settlement by an independent laboratory under this section, if requested to do so by ORPHAN, Catalytica will replace[ * ] the portion of such shipment under dispute until such dispute is resolved.

9.3 Rejected Shipments. If the nonconformity in a rejected shipment of the Product was due to any action or inaction of ORPHAN or the carrier subsequent to shipment (F.O.B. Catalytica’s [ * ] plant) of the Product by Catalytica or results from Active Ingredients supplied by ORPHAN, Catalytica shall have no liability for such rejected shipment. If the nonconformity in a properly rejected shipment of the Product was due to Catalytica’s negligence or willful misconduct prior to shipment (F.O.B. Catalytica’s [ * ] plant), Catalytica at its cost and option shall either credit ORPHAN’S account for the full Manufacturing Price of such shipment or replace it with a conforming shipment within thirty (30) days of the Notification of rejection. Such credit or replacement will be ORPHAN’S sole remedy for such rejected Product provided Catalytica provides replacement or credit within thirty (30) days of Notification of rejection.

9.4 Disposal; Return Material Authorization. If ORPHAN expects to make a claim against Catalytica with respect to a rejected shipment of the Product, ORPHAN shall not dispose or allow the disposal of such Product shipment without the express written authorization and instructions of Catalytica. ORPHAN shall not return any rejected shipment of the Product to Catalytica without a Return Material Authorization (“RMA”) from Catalytica (Appendix C). Upon written request of ORPHAN, Catalytica shall promptly issue an RMA for any rejected shipment, provided, however, appropriate samples may be retained as evidence of the basis for such rejection. If the Product is returned to Catalytica, all risk of loss and/or damage to such Product shall remain with ORPHAN unless and until such Product is returned to such place as Catalytica designates in writing.

9.5 Product Recalls. Each party shall promptly notify the other party if any batch of the Product is alleged or proven to be the subject of a recall, market withdrawal or correction ordered by the FDA or any other regulatory authority in the Territory. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to handle and dispose of such recall, market withdrawal or correction; provided, however, that in the event of a disagreement as to any matters related to such recall, market withdrawal or correction, ORPHAN’S decision shall prevail. ORPHAN shall bear [ * ] costs of any such recall, market withdrawal or correction unless such recall, market withdrawal or correction was solely the result of Catalytica’s negligence or willful misconduct, or breach of Article 8.1(b), in which case Catalytica shall [ * ] bear [ * ] cost of administering such recall, market withdrawal, or correction; provided, however, in no event shall Catalytica’s aggregate liability with regard to any recall, market withdrawal or correction exceed [ * ]. Catalytica will not bear the cost for recalls made as a result of errors that could have been detected by ORPHAN through acceptance and rejection testing as outlined in this Article 9. ORPHAN shall in all events be responsible for conducting any recalls, market withdrawals or corrections with respect to the Product.

Mr. Randy Tlachac

Orphan Medical

13911 Ridgedale Drive, Suite 250

Minnetonka, Minnesota 55305

Dear Mr. Tlachac:

The purchasing department at DSM is working together with our vendors to obtain the best purchase price for components. The purchase price of the components for Xyrem® is in most cases higher than the pricing estimated by Orphan. We have listed below the actual purchase costs for the Xyrem® components paid (or to be paid) by DSM for component purchases to date as requested in your e-mail note dated 03/04/02.

[ * ]

   [*]   [ * ]  

TOTAL

     [ * ]
     *estimate  

In the event that Orphan Medical elects to have DSM purchase from other vendors, not yet DSM qualified, Orphan Medical would accept all associated costs of changes that would be required to transition from the established vendors to new vendors for the Xyrem© components, including qualification audits, establishing new specifications and item numbers, all costs associated with machinability and line testing, and any other changes that would be required. If Orphan Medical negotiates lower prices, DSM will take every effort to negotiate these same prices with DSM suppliers.

As noted in previous correspondence, any last minute changes to components may impact the timeline for the commercial introduction of Xyrem® after FDA approval (anticipated April 9, 2002). The commercial pricing updates are due to Orphan Medical requirements as mandated by the FDA that a Medguide be included on the inside of the commercial carton and that the Medguide be referenced on the outside of the carton.

Call me if you have any questions (252-707-7322).

 

Sincerely,

The Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any issues in respect of the Additional Quantities, which DSM is unable to accept for any [ * ] stated in the [ * ] forecast, according to DSM’s available capacity.

  5.1.3 Firm Purchase Commitment.

acknowledges that its appointment with respect to the Fibromyalgia Indication is contingent upon (i) UCB providing the Fibromyalgia Notice to Jazz Pharmaceuticals no later than the earlier of (A) the later of thirty (30) days after (x) the Execution Date and (y) receipt by UCB of a Final Advice Letter or (B) September 15, 2006 and (ii) making the milestone payment to Jazz Pharmaceuticals set forth in Section 4.1(h) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, UCB shall only distribute, sell, market or otherwise commercialize Product [ * ] the price of that Product shall be [ * ] of the [ * ] Product price [ * ]. Furthermore, Jazz Pharmaceuticals hereby agrees to negotiate with UCB on an exclusive basis and in good faith [ * ] an amendment to this Agreement that would contain appropriate commercial terms upon which UCB shall be appointed the exclusive licensee and distributor of Product [ * ]. Upon any such agreement being reached, [ * ] shall thereafter form part of the Territory; provided, however, that if the parties fail to reach such an agreement within the period set forth above, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall be free to enter into an agreement with a Third Party with respect to the Product [ * ]. During the Term of this Agreement, UCB shall purchase all of its requirements of the Product from Jazz Pharmaceuticals as the sole supplier subject to the following:

(a) UCB Manufacturing. Jazz Pharmaceuticals agrees to discuss with UCB the feasibility and commercial viability of transferring the manufacture of the Product to UCB’s FDA approved facilities or qualifying and registering UCB as a back-up manufacturer for the Product for the Territory and/or for the rest of the world. Notwithstanding the foregoing, once aggregate Net Sales of the Product sold by or on behalf of UCB in the Territory have [ * ] then UCB shall have the option to notify Jazz Pharmaceuticals that it intends to transfer Product manufacturing to the facilities of UCB and/or its nominated Third Party no earlier than [ * ] from the date of UCB’s initial notice to Jazz Pharmaceuticals. Following the exercise of UCB’s option by notice in writing, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, at [ * ] expense for all [ * ], to provide UCB with such assistance as is reasonable to take over manufacture or to obtain and qualify a Third Party manufacturer, including without limitation, giving effect to the licensing of its Manufacturing Know-How to UCB and/or such Third Party manufacturer (as the granting of such manufacturing license rights is thereby contemplated under Section 2.2) for the purposes of manufacturing API and/or Product. Jazz Pharmaceuticals will make available to UCB and/or its nominated Third Party, on a confidential basis and for use only to make the Product, such Manufacturing Know-How of Jazz Pharmaceuticals as may be reasonably necessary to make the Product. Such Manufacturing Know-How will not be used by UCB and/or its nominated Third Party for any other purpose or provided to any other Third Party without the prior written consent of Jazz Pharmaceuticals. Jazz Pharmaceuticals will work with UCB and/or its nominated Third Party to execute all documents and to take all action reasonably requested by Jazz Pharmaceuticals to preserve the confidentiality of such Manufacturing Know-How and Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ intellectual property rights therein. UCB and/or its nominated Third Party will also use commercially reasonable efforts (including allowing Jazz Pharmaceuticals to negotiate an agreement not inconsistent with this Agreement regarding the

[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKET BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.


transfer of the Manufacturing Know-How directly with UCB’s nominated Third Party concurrent with the time in which UCB is negotiating it supply agreement with such Third Party), to facilitate an agreement between Jazz Pharmaceuticals and such Third Party covering any improvements to the manufacturing process, so that Jazz Pharmaceuticals either owns such improvements, or has a worldwide, paid up, irrevocable, nonexclusive license, with the right to grant sublicenses, to such improvements to make, use, sell, offer to sell and import the Product. For the sake of clarity, UCB shall be free to enter into any agreement with a Third Party for the manufacture of the Product provided that such agreement provides, in Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ reasonable opinion, appropriate safeguards for the protection of the Licensed Intellectual Property and Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ Confidential Information and UCB has agreed to the terms and conditions required by Section 2.1(c) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any agreement between UCB and its nominated Third Party will restrict such Third Party’s use of Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ Manufacturing Know-How and Confidential Information solely to the manufacture of the Product only.

(b) UCB/ Third Party Manufacturing in the Event of Default. If at any time after December 31, 2007, (i) more than [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the aggregate Product supplied to UCB by Jazz Pharmaceuticals in any subsequent Contract Year is found, pursuant to Section 7.12, to have failed to conform to the Product Specifications and/or the relevant purchase order(s); or (ii) Jazz Pharmaceuticals is unable to manufacture or supply the quantity of Product ordered by UCB in accordance with this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, by reason of an event described in Section 16.1 (Events of Force Majeure); then UCB shall have the right at its sole election to (A) take over the manufacture of the Product or appoint a Third Party manufacturer to fulfill Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ manufacturing and supply obligations under this Agreement thereafter through the remaining Term of this Agreement and/or (B) purchase the API from Jazz Pharmaceuticals and itself convert, or appoint a Third Party manufacturer to convert, the API into Product through the Term of the Agreement; provided, however, that in the case of Section 2.1(b)(ii), such right shall be exercisable only if (1) Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ inability to manufacture or supply the Product could reasonably be expected to result in a period of time of at least [ * ] during which less than [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of Product ordered pursuant to UCB’s last firm purchase order would be available to UCB for commercial sale, (2) UCB provides reasonable evidence of its ability to procure a Third Party manufacturer or take over the manufacture of the Product or the API more rapidly than Jazz Pharmaceuticals could restart production and supply of Product, and (3) Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ inability to manufacture or supply Product did not result, wholly or in part, from a breach by UCB of its obligations hereunder. Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall, at [ * ] expense for all [ * ], provide UCB with all reasonable assistance as is necessary to take over or obtain and qualify a Third Party manufacturer, including without limitation, giving effect to the licensing of its Manufacturing Know-How to UCB and/or such Third Party manufacturer (as the granting of such manufacturing license rights is thereby contemplated under Section 2.2) solely for the purpose of manufacturing API and/or Product pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(i) [ * ]% of Net Sales where UCB manufactures or has manufactured API; and

(ii) [ * ]% of Net Sales where UCB manufactures or has manufactured the Product (other than the API).

Any other related terms shall be negotiated in good faith by UCB and Jazz Pharmaceuticals. For the avoidance of doubt, the [ * ] royalty of [ * ]% of Net Sales under this Section 2.1(c) shall be payable by UCB to Jazz Pharmaceuticals only where UCB manufactures or has manufactured both the API and the Product.

(d) Component Sourcing. UCB shall be permitted at any time during the Term on sixty (60) days prior written notice to Jazz Pharmaceuticals to cease purchasing some or all Components from Jazz Pharmaceuticals and purchase some or all of the Components directly from Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ suppliers or qualify another Third Party(ies) to supply Components; provided that, subject to Sections 7.6 and 7.12, UCB must purchase all Components delivered by Jazz Pharmaceuticals pursuant to a firm order regardless of whether such delivery is made after UCB delivers notice to Jazz Pharmaceuticals of its intent to purchase the Components from Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ suppliers or another Third Party(ies). UCB shall bear any and all costs associated with qualifying any Third Party(ies) to supply Components pursuant to this Section 2.1(c); provided that if Jazz Pharmaceuticals desires to purchase the same Components from such Third Party(ies) as UCB is purchasing, then Jazz Pharmaceuticals and UCB shall [ * ] of any such costs.

(e) Manufacturing License. In the event that UCB assumed responsibility for the manufacture of the Product pursuant to this Section 2.1, UCB shall have a non-exclusive license under any necessary Licensed Intellectual Property during the Term, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, to make or have made the Product outside the Territory solely for sale and distribution in the Territory.

2.2 License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Jazz Pharmaceuticals hereby grants UCB an exclusive nontransferable, royalty-bearing right and license (with the right of sublicense, as specifically set forth herein), to use the NDA, Know

How, Trademarks, Patent Rights and all Improvements and Proprietary Information of Jazz Pharmaceuticals related thereto or to the Product together with the goodwill associated therewith (the “Licensed Intellectual Property”) during the Term, solely in the Territory, to develop, make, have made, package, label, promote, market, sell, have sold, supply, distribute or otherwise commercialize Products in the Licensed Indications, or subject to Section 6.8 any other Indications on a Named Patient Basis, including without limitation (i) preparing applications for Marketing Authorizations and obtaining and maintaining Registrations for the Product in the Territory; and (ii) exercising its other rights under this Agreement including those provided in Articles X and XI hereof and making or having made API and/or Product but only as provided in Section 2.1. Subject to Section 2.3 and except as set forth in Section 6.8, no license is granted to UCB hereunder for any rights to market the Product for Indications other than the Licensed Indications. Except as provided in Section 14.6, the license set forth above shall terminate automatically upon termination of this Agreement. Subject only to the foregoing express license grant and its other rights as herein provided, UCB shall not have and shall not assert any claim, right, title or interest in or to the Licensed Intellectual Property.

2.3 Right of First Negotiation for Other Indications.

(a) Negotiation Notice. If, during the Term of this Agreement, Jazz Pharmaceuticals desires to pursue further development of the Product in the Territory for one or more Indications other than the Licensed Indications, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall provide written notice to UCB (the “Negotiation Notice”) of its intent to negotiate an agreement therefore. The Negotiation Notice shall identify the relevant Indication(s). Delivery of a Negotiation Notice shall create a mutual obligation to negotiate in good faith on an exclusive basis for the grant to UCB of exclusive rights to the Product for such Indication(s). If no response (a “Negotiation Response”) is received by Jazz Pharmaceuticals [ * ] after delivery of the Negotiation Notice to UCB, the offer shall be deemed declined, and Jazz Pharmaceuticals may then negotiate with any Third Party for the grant of any license for the Product for such Indication(s) subject, however, to the last sentence of Section 2.3(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if UCB does not deliver the Fibromyalgia Notice to Jazz Pharmaceuticals in accordance with this Agreement, the development and commercialization of a product containing the API for the Fibromyalgia Indication by Jazz Pharmaceuticals or a Third Party will not be subject to UCB’s right of first negotiation set forth in this Section 2.3.

(b) Procedure of Negotiations. UCB shall have [ * ] from the date of its delivery to Jazz Pharmaceuticals of a Negotiation Response to send a non-binding letter of intent or term sheet to Jazz Pharmaceuticals. The parties shall then have [ * ] from the date that UCB delivers such letter of intent or term sheet to Jazz Pharmaceuticals to negotiate in good faith (and on a confidential basis), and enter into a final agreement with regard to UCB’s distribution of the Product in the Territory for the new Indication(s). In the event that (A) UCB shall have failed to

have responded to the Negotiation Notice [ * ] provided in Section 2.3(a) above or (B) failed to send a non-binding letter of intent or term sheet [ * ] set out in this Section 2.3(b) or (C) Jazz Pharmaceuticals and UCB have not entered into a final agreement [ * ] provided in this Section 2.3, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall have no further obligation to undertake or continue negotiations with UCB for such license, and Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall be free to commence negotiations for a license to the Product for such Indication(s) with any Third Party subject to the following: (i) if a letter of intent, term sheet or final agreement with a Third Party shall not have been signed by Jazz Pharmaceuticals and such Third Party [ * ] of the termination of UCB’s right of first negotiation, then UCB’s right of first negotiation shall again become effective on the terms herein provided and (ii) without UCB’s prior written consent, the terms and conditions agreed by Jazz Pharmaceuticals with such Third Party [ * ].

(c) No Trademark License. If pursuant to this Section 2.3 Jazz Pharmaceuticals licenses to a Third Party the Product in the Territory for one or more Indications other than the Licensed Indications, then such Third Party shall be obligated to market the Product under a trademark different from the Trademarks. Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall not grant, license or otherwise transfer to such Third Party any rights to the Trademarks or otherwise permit any use of the Trademarks by such Third Party for such countries.

2.4 Subdistributors/Sublicensees. UCB may appoint Subdistributors and Sublicensees with the prior written approval of Jazz Pharmaceuticals, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. No such appointment or delegation shall relieve UCB from any obligations hereunder, and each agreement with a Subdistributor or Sublicensee shall include terms ensuring the protection of Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ rights under this Agreement. UCB shall guarantee and be responsible for the making of all payments due, and the making of reports required under this Agreement by its Subdistributors and Sublicensees, and their compliance with all applicable terms of this Agreement. All agreements between UCB and its Subdistributors and Sublicensees shall include a provision prohibiting the further appointment of Subdistributors or Sublicensees, as the case may be, and a provision terminating the Subdistributor or Sublicensee agreement to the extent such agreement relates to the Product in the Territory upon termination of this Agreement for any reason.

3.2 Regulatory Timelines; Regulatory Assistance. Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall promptly provide to UCB, at Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ cost and expense, copies of all documentation, Know How and Proprietary Information in its possession, and not previously provided, relating to the Product is necessary for UCB to prepare any relevant regulatory application for the Product in a relevant Licensed Indication in a timely manner as such documentation becomes available. Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall also promptly provide, at its own cost and expense, commercially reasonable assistance to UCB in obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval for the Product in the Territory for each Licensed Indication, including without limitation, the provision of services set forth in Appendix D hereto. Each party shall keep the other party informed of any significant or material issue including contact with Regulatory Authorities, related to their respective regulatory filings, submissions and approvals which might reasonably be expected to affect or impact the other party’s regulatory activities in relation to the Product. Where a Regulatory Authority requires additional data or documentation or additional action that is not within Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ obligations as set out in this Section 3.2 and that neither party has or could readily produce or which cannot readily be taken by either party, the parties shall negotiate in good faith the terms upon which such data or documentation should be generated or actions taken by either party, if at all.

3.3 Other Approvals. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Quality Agreement, UCB undertakes and covenants that as soon as reasonably practicable following the Execution Date it shall take all other actions to obtain and maintain during the Term all other approvals, licenses and permits necessary to import, promote, market, package, sell and distribute Products in the Licensed Indications within the Territory.

3.4 Product Changes. Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall give UCB prompt written notice of any formulation or material packaging change to the Product submitted by Jazz Pharmaceuticals to the FDA or requested or required by the FDA, or any other U.S. regulatory authority, whenever such change may affect a Registration in any country within the Territory. Jazz Pharmaceuticals may change the Product, or analytical test methods as it deems appropriate, provided Jazz Pharmaceuticals continues to supply Product conforming to the Product Specifications and in accordance with cGMP then in effect (including continuing the use of the existing analytical test methods) until such times as the Marketing Authorizations are amended to reflect such changes. In the event of such changes, UCB shall be solely responsible for additional submissions and/or regulatory updates which may be required by the Regulatory Authorities in the Territory, provided that all necessary data and information in Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ possession or control shall be furnished by Jazz Pharmaceuticals at Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ expense for such purposes, and provided; further that in no event shall UCB’s

failure to obtain any required amendments to the Marketing Authorizations to reflect such additional submissions and/or regulatory updates, relieve Jazz Pharmaceuticals of its obligation to supply Product conforming to the Product Specifications. In the event a Regulatory Authority in any country in the Territory requires a change to the Product Specifications, Jazz Pharmaceuticals and UCB shall cooperate to develop a mutually agreeable plan to address the regulatory requirement in accordance with the change management provisions of the Quality Agreement, as applicable, and, if necessary, to include the production of separate lots, at UCB’s expense, for the Territory. In the event Jazz Pharmaceuticals and UCB mutually agree it is not commercially reasonable to meet such requirements, UCB shall cease promoting, marketing, selling and/or distributing the Product in that Licensed Indication in that country in the Territory and shall promptly terminate the Registrations in such country. If the parties are in disagreement as to whether it is commercially reasonable to meet such requirements, then they shall submit the matter to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.2 of this Agreement.

3.5 Clinical Trials. The parties shall keep one another fully and currently informed through the Steering Committee as to all tests and trials of the Product that they intend to carry out for purposes of compliance with regulatory requirements or that might affect Marketing Authorization applications or Registrations in the Territory, provided always that if (i) Jazz Pharmaceuticals itself intends to conduct, or intends to have a Third Party conduct on its behalf, a test or trial of the Product in the Territory other than the clinical trials related to obtaining Marketing Authorization for the Product in Fibromyalgia and (ii) UCB reasonably determines that such proposed activity [ * ], UCB shall be entitled to refer such proposed activity for due consideration by the Steering Committee. The parties shall cooperate in the design of such tests and trials in order to ensure to the maximum possible extent that duplication of effort shall be avoided, and that the results shall be suitable for filing with the Regulatory Authorities in the Territory and shall otherwise be useful for purposes of meeting all applicable regulatory requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to ensure that all clinical trials sponsored by that party which is undertaken for the Product after the Execution Date, if any, shall be designed and conducted in accordance with good clinical practices and good laboratory practices as established for both the United States and the European Union.

approvals issued in respect of the Product outside the Territory and/or for Indications other than Licensed Indications where, in the case of Jazz Pharmaceuticals, non-compliance could have a material adverse impact on the Product in the Territory.

3.7 Approved Product Packaging and Labeling; Relevant Testing. After Product in a particular Licensed Indication receives a Marketing Authorization in any country of the Territory, UCB shall, at its own expense, package and label such Product and shall include all required labeling for such Product sold in such country(ies). For all orders submitted by UCB after Registration is received in a particular country, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall supply to UCB in bulk (manufactured in accordance with the cGMP requirements as set out in the Quality Agreement), and final labeling and packaging of Product for such country(ies) shall be completed by UCB. After Product receives Marketing Authorization in a country in the Territory for a particular Licensed Indication, UCB shall be solely responsible for all final release testing in such country(ies) and for ensuring in such country(ies) that the Product labeling and packaging complies with the relevant Marketing Authorizations and all other applicable laws of each such country in the Territory. UCB shall provide Jazz Pharmaceuticals with approved copies of all foreign language labels. To the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations in each country in the Territory, where that Product has been manufactured by Jazz Pharmaceuticals all labels shall identify Jazz Pharmaceuticals as the manufacturer of the Product for UCB.

3.8 Steering Committee. Under the Prior Agreement, the parties have formed a Steering Committee made up of commercial and technical employees from both companies that has certain decision-making authority, and provide oversight for the administration of this Agreement. Each party shall maintain two (2) members on the Steering Committee with other members added as needed. The parties shall each select one of its representatives to serve as a co-chairperson of the Steering Committee. The Steering Committee shall have the authority to conduct the following activities and such other activities as may be agreed to in writing by the parties: (a) review ongoing regulatory issues, (b) review the medical aspects of standards of care in the Territory, (c) review clinical developments across territories to the extent permitted by Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ agreements with Third Parties, (d) review marketing campaigns and new marketing plans, (e) review sales activities and results, (f) review aspects of Product manufacturing campaigns and Product forecasts, inventory stocks and ordering, and (g) establish a manufacturing sub-committee which shall review matters relating to the manufacture of Product. In the event and to the extent that the Steering Committee is unable to come to a consensus on any matter relating to the development (except to the extent that such development involves clinical trials that would occur solely in the Territory) or manufacture of the Product, Registration (including pre-Registration activities), packaging, labeling, promoting, marketing, sale or distribution of the Product outside the Territory, the views of the Jazz Pharmaceuticals Steering Committee members shall prevail. In the event and to the extent that the Steering

Committee is unable to come to a consensus on any matter relating to clinical trial activity that would occur solely in the Territory, Registration (including pre-Registration activities), packaging, labeling, promoting, marketing, sale or distribution of the Product within the Territory, and, if UCB has exercised its manufacturing option under Section 2.2, on any matter relating to the manufacture of the Product for sale within the Territory, the views of the UCB Steering Committee members shall prevail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a particular matter for which there is no consensus of the Steering Committee could, in the good faith judgment of the party who does not have the ultimate decision making authority as to such matter (as provided in the previous two sentences), materially affect the rights or obligations under this Agreement of such party, Jazz Pharmaceuticals and UCB shall attempt to resolve the matter in a manner which will minimize the impact on such rights or obligations of such party, but in default of agreement may be referred by either party to arbitration under Section 15.2. During each Contract Year, the parties shall hold at least four (4) regular meetings of the Steering Committee. Members of the Steering Committee may participate in meetings of the Steering Committee in person or by conference telephone call. At least one (1) of the four (4) Steering Committee meetings shall be conducted in-person. Employees of each party who are not members of the Steering Committee may attend meetings of the Steering Committee as required. In-person Steering Committee meetings shall alternate between Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ designated facility and a facility designated by UCB. The co-chairpersons of the Steering Committee shall alternate responsibility for the preparation of minutes setting forth discussions made at each committee meeting, with the Jazz Pharmaceuticals Chairperson preparing minutes for the first Steering Committee meeting; provided, however, that such minutes shall not become official until agreed upon by both co-chairpersons.

The expenses of such testing shall be borne by Jazz Pharmaceuticals if the non-conformity is confirmed, and otherwise by UCB. Without limiting UCB’s other remedies as herein provided, Jazz Pharmaceuticals shall promptly replace properly rejected Product. UCB shall return such Product or, if requested by Jazz Pharmaceuticals, destroy the Product and provide the certification described in Section 7.12.

7.12 Rejection of Shipments For Product Non-Conformance. If UCB rejects a shipment on the determination that such shipment of Product fails to conform to the purchase order therefore or on the grounds that it fails to conform to the Product Specifications, UCB shall give written notice of such rejection to Jazz Pharmaceuticals [ * ] after receipt thereof, in the case of apparent non-conformance, and [ * ] of the receipt of definitive test results obtained pursuant to Section 7.11 in the case of non-conformance established by such tests.

If UCB fails to provide Jazz Pharmaceuticals such notice in respect of Product delivered to UCB pursuant to a purchase order within [ * ] as the case may be, of the date of delivery, the Product shall be deemed accepted by UCB; provided, however, that such deemed acceptance shall not (i) impair UCB’s right to reject shipment or recover damages in respect of any non-conformance that is not apparent and cannot be determined by such tests or (ii) reduce, diminish or alter UCB’s rights to indemnification as specified in Article IX hereof or to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 14.2(b). If UCB expects to make a claim against Jazz Pharmaceuticals in accordance with this Section 7.12, UCB shall not dispose or allow the disposal of the Product in question without the express written authorization and instructions of Jazz Pharmaceuticals.

The covenants and agreements of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement will survive and remain in full force for the applicable periods described therein or, if no such period is specified, [ * ]. Any right of indemnification pursuant to this Article 10 with respect to a claimed breach of a representation, warranty or covenant will expire at the date of termination of the representation, warranty or covenant claimed to be breached, unless on or prior to such date the party from whom indemnification is sought will have received notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.5 hereof.

(v) the negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Solvay Indemnified Parties (as defined below);

provided, however, that in each case Jazz Pharmaceuticals will not be obligated to indemnify any Solvay Indemnified Parties with respect to, and to the extent of, any Losses for which Solvay is obligated to indemnify Jazz Pharmaceuticals pursuant to Section 10.2.

Solvay acknowledges and agrees that the indemnification provided in this Section 10.3 will [ * ].

10.4 No Incidental Damages. In no event will either Party be liable to the other Party for incidental, indirect, punitive, exemplary, special or consequential damages, such as losses of revenues or profits, whether based upon a claim or action of contract, warranty, negligence, strict liability or other tort, a product claim, or otherwise arising out of or related to this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to damages due to a third party which are the subject of a valid claim for indemnification hereunder.

10.5 Procedure. In order for an indemnified party under this Article 10 (an “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement, such Indemnified Party will, promptly following the discovery of the matters giving rise to any

[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.


Loss, notify the indemnifying party under this Article 10 (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of its claim for indemnification for such Loss, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such Loss and the amount of the liability estimated to accrue therefrom, if known; provided, however, that failure to give such prompt notification will not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party will have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Indemnified Party failed to give such notice). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party will deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within ten (10) business days after the Indemnified Party’s receipt of such request, all information and documentation reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Loss.

10.6 Third Party Claims. If the indemnification sought pursuant hereto involves a claim made by a third party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation. Should the Indemnifying Party be permitted and so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless and to the extent that a conflict arises between the interests of the Parties. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party will have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party will control such defense. The Indemnifying Party will be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the Indemnified Party will have failed to give notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above) or in the event of a conflict of interest between the Parties. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, each of the Parties hereto will cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation will include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party may recommend and which by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to consent to any such settlement, compromise or discharge that (x) would materially adversely affect the rights granted to the Indemnified Party hereunder, (y) would materially conflict with the terms of this Agreement or (z) would materially adversely affect the Products outside the Territory. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party will have assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent.

This Agreement may be terminated by either Party in the event the other Party breaches its obligation(s) under this Agreement and does not cure the same within [ * ] following written notice of such breach; provided, however, that if the breach is of such a nature that it can not be cured within [ * ], then the time to cure shall be extended until such breach can reasonably be cured.

In addition, this Agreement may be terminated by either Party in accordance with the terms of Section 7.3 and/or Section 13.9.

11.4 Termination by Jazz Pharmaceuticals.

from a third party under no obligation of secrecy to the disclosing Party. If Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by law or pursuant to the disclosure requirements of a governmental agency, the Party ordered to disclose the Confidential Information shall notify the disclosing Party which owns or supplied the Confidential Information sought to be disclosed pursuant to such request, requirement or order in sufficient time to allow such disclosing Party to oppose such request, requirement or order.

Each such licensee, sublicensee or assignee shall be obligated to by an agreement of confidentiality binding such licensee, sublicensee or assignee to the same extent to which the Party from which it received the Confidential Information is bound. The Parties shall exercise all necessary precautions to safeguard the secrecy of Confidential Information and to prevent the unauthorized disclosure thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, the obligations of this Article 12 shall survive for a period of [ * ] years from the [ * ].

13.6 Amendment; Waiver, Etc.

No waiver by any Party of any condition or of the breach of any term contained in this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such breach or the breach of any other term of this Agreement.

Any assignment not in accordance with this Agreement will be void.

13.9 Severability.

  d. Assignee covenants that it shall obtain additional Elan confidential information under the Elan Agreement (with the exception of that Elan confidential information that is contained in and forms part of any NDA regulatory filings that are provided directly to Assignee by Assignor) directly from Elan in accordance with the Elan Agreement.

7. Cooperation. Assignor, Assignee and Elan shall reasonably cooperate with one another in transferring to Assignee the rights and obligations assigned by Assignor hereunder.

 

8. Coordination. Until the US NDA is fully transferred to Assignee, the parties agree that they shall oversee the management of all activities conducted under the Elan Agreement that are associated with the INDs, the NDA filings, and the US NDA and the transfer of same from the Assignor to the Assignee through a transition committee (“Transition Committee”).

Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the parties:

Specific issues to be discussed include, but are not limited to, the transfer and return of Elan confidential information, how the parties shall coordinate and respond to FDA enquiries, the new COMPOUND qualification, on-going activities prior to process validation, the use of process validation batches, and PRODUCT launch activities;

 

  c. Thereafter, the Transition Committee shall meet as often as may be reasonably necessary to resolve any management issues that may arise between the parties while Assignor continues to own and be responsible for the INDs, the NDA filings and the US NDA. The meetings may take place by telephone or, if necessary, in person;

 

  d.

Transition Committee meetings shall be co-chaired by a representative from Elan and a representative from Assignee.


 

All decisions made shall be mutually agreed by the Elan and Assignee, and Assignor shall be bound by such decisions. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by the Transition Committee shall be submitted for resolution to the President and Chief Operating Officer of Elan and the Chief Executive Officer of Assignee.

 

  e. The Transition Committee shall be promptly disbanded following the transfer of the INDs, the NDA filings and the US NDA to Assignee.

  7.2. in the event that there are delays in the supply of any information, data, materials or COMPOUND by COMPANY to ELAN, or delays by any government agency or authority (which delays by any such agency or authority are not attributable to any act or omission of ELAN) which will materially affect ELAN’s ability to achieve the tasks and/or successfully complete the PROJECT within the time schedules set out in paragraphs 2.1.2. and 2.1.3. of Article V, the parties shall agree in good faith an appropriate mechanism to remedy any such delays by COMPANY or any government agency or authority and amend paragraphs 2.1.2. and 2.1.3. of Article V, in particular to extend the dates set out therein for the achievement of the tasks by ELAN to ensure that any such delays by COMPANY or any government agency or authority will not adversely affect the payment of the full amount of any licence royalty to ELAN under paragraphs 2.1.2. and 2.1.3. of Article V.

 

  8. COMPANY shall inform ELAN as to its choice of initial developmental dosage strengths within thirty (30) days of the execution of this Agreement and ELAN shall promptly inform COMPANY as to the suitability of such dosage strengths for development. Pursuant to the PROJECT, ELAN shall then develop up to [ * ] unit dosage strengths of the PRODUCT after the preferred dosage form (SODAS or HYDAS) has been chosen by COMPANY. In the event that ELAN informs COMPANY that one or more of the dosage strengths is unsuitable for development, the parties shall agree on a suitable alternative dosage strength(s).

 

  9. In the event that COMPANY wishes to have more than [ * ] dosage strengths developed pursuant to this Agreement, the parties shall negotiate in good faith as to the additional costs to be paid to ELAN for such development and such amendments as are required to the PROJECT and the timeframe for the PROJECT, including the time periods set out in paragraphs 2.1.2. and 2.1.3. of Article V. The parties agree that ELAN’s charges to COMPANY for any such work shall be as set out in Article V, paragraph 4 of the Agreement.

 

  10. ELAN shall conduct the pilot and pivotal Phase I pharmacokinetic studies and associated bio- and statistical analysis in human volunteers in accordance with the PROJECT [ * ]. The design [ * ] of such studies and associated analytical testing shall be as set out in the PROJECT, provided however, that the [ * ] of such studies shall [ * ], as appropriate, in the event of a [ * ] of the studies. The design [ * ] of such studies shall be finalised with COMPANY prior to commencement of each such study. The parties agree that [ * ] shall be as set out in [ * ] of the Agreement. ELAN shall furnish a full and detailed report to COMPANY on the results of all such pharmacokinetic studies. [ * ]. ELAN undertakes that it shall carry out all such pharmacokinetic studies to prevailing cGCP and cGLP and most specifically in accordance with FDA standards and guidelines.

COMPANY agrees to carry out and complete the clinical efficacy programme to an FDA approvable standard and to a standard and timeframe that COMPANY would otherwise find acceptable for one of its major branded products. COMPANY shall keep ELAN informed as to the progress of the studies and on completion, shall impart summary reports on the studies. COMPANY undertakes that it shall carry out all such clinical studies to prevailing cGCP and cGLP and most specifically in accordance with FDA standards and guidelines.

 

  12. During the PROJECT, the parties shall review and agree on interim specifications for the PRODUCT and shall also agree on the final PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS following the filing of the NDA in the United States of America, which shall at that time be attached to this Agreement as Appendix C. The PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS may thereafter be amended as agreed by the parties or as may otherwise be requested or mandated by the regulatory authorities in the TERRITORY, most specifically the FDA.

 

  13. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereby confirm that the primary objective of the PROJECT is to generate the NDA and secure NDA APPROVAL for the PRODUCT in the United States of America. As of the date of this Agreement, it is the parties’ expectation that the body of data so generated in the PROJECT will also be used to support such applications for regulatory approval that COMPANY, its AFFILIATES or permitted sub-licensees shall make in the other countries of the TERRITORY.

 

  14. In the event however that such expectation proves unfounded or incorrect and further data is required to obtain such other NDA APPROVAL as are pursued by COMPANY in the other countries of the TERRITORY, COMPANY shall determine the viability of proceeding further with the regulatory application and generation of the further data requirements. In the event that COMPANY elects to continue, the parties shall agree on the programme of work to be undertaken to generate such additional data and the apportioning of tasks and costs therefor. COMPANY shall reimburse ELAN for all such additional work which it requires ELAN to carry out in accordance with ELAN’s charges as set out in Article V, paragraph 4 of the Agreement.

PRODUCT CLAIMS AND RECALLS

6.1 Product Claims.

(a) Product Claims. The Client has the right to reject any portion of any shipment of Product that deviates from the Specifications or cGMPs, without invalidating any remainder of such shipment. The Client or its designee shall inspect the Product manufactured by Patheon upon receipt thereof and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to give Patheon written notice (a "Deficiency Notice") of all claims for Product that deviate from the Specifications or cGMPs within [ * ] after the Client’s or its designee’s receipt thereof (or, in the case of any defects not reasonably susceptible to discovery upon receipt of the Product, within [ * ] after discovery thereof by the Client, but in no event after the expiration date of the Product). Should the Client fail to provide Patheon with the Deficiency Notice within the applicable period described above, then the delivery shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Client on the day after the end of the period described above.

(b) Determination of Deficiency. Upon receipt of a Deficiency Notice, Patheon shall have [ * ] to advise the Client by notice in writing that it disagrees with the contents of such Deficiency Notice. If the Client and Patheon fail to agree within [ * ] after Patheon's notice to the Client as to whether any Product identified in the Deficiency Notice deviates from the Specifications or cGMPs, then the parties shall mutually select a laboratory to evaluate if the Product deviates from the Specifications or cGMPs.

from the Specifications or cGMPs, the Client may reject such Product in the manner contemplated in this Section 6.1. If such evaluation does not so certify in respect of any such Product, then the Client shall be deemed to have accepted delivery of such Product on the [ * ] day after delivery (or, in the case of any defects not reasonably susceptible to discovery upon receipt of the Product, on the [ * ] day after discovery thereof by the Client, but in no event after the expiration date of the Product).

(c) Patheon Responsibility. In the event the Client rejects Product in accordance with this Section 6.1, and the deviation is determined to arise from Patheon’s failure to provide the Manufacturing Services in accordance with Specifications or cGMPs, Patheon will credit the Client’s account for Patheon’s invoice price to the Client for such defective Product. If the Client shall have previously paid for such defective Product, Patheon shall promptly, at the Client’s election, either: (i) refund the invoice price for such defective Product; (ii) offset such amount against other amounts due to Patheon hereunder; or (iii) replace such Product with conforming Product without the Client being liable for payment therefor under Section 3.1, contingent upon the receipt from the Client of all Active Material required for the manufacture of such replacement Product. Subject to the conditions and limitations set out in Section 10.2, Patheon shall be responsible for paying for any Active Material used for the rejected Product under this Section 6.1(c).

(d) Shortages.

6.2 Product Recalls and Returns.

(a) Records and Notice. Patheon and the Client shall each maintain such records as may be necessary to permit a Recall of any Product delivered to the Client or customers of the Client. Each party shall promptly notify the other by telephone (to be confirmed in writing) of any information which might affect the marketability, safety or effectiveness of the Product and/or which might result in the Recall or seizure of the Product. Upon receiving any such notice or upon any such discovery, each party shall cease and desist from further shipments of such Product in its possession or control until a decision has been made whether a Recall or some other corrective action is necessary. The decision to initiate a Recall or to take some other corrective action, if any, shall be made and implemented by the Client. For purposes of this Agreement, "Recall" shall mean any action (i) by the Client to recover title to or possession of quantities of the Product sold or shipped to third parties (including, without limitation, the voluntary withdrawal of Product from the market); or (ii) by any regulatory authorities to detain or destroy any of the Product. Recall shall also include any action by either party to refrain from selling or shipping quantities of the Product to third parties which would have been subject to a Recall if sold or shipped.

In the event that Patheon is unable to replace the Recalled or returned Product (except where such inability results from a failure to receive the required Active Materials due to the fault of Client), then at Client’s request, Patheon will reimburse the Client for the price that the Client paid to Patheon for manufacturing the affected Product. In either case, subject to the conditions and limitations set out in Section 10.2, Patheon shall pay all costs related to the Active Materials required for the manufacture of replacement Product. In all other circumstances, Recalls, returns or other corrective actions shall be made at the Client's cost and expense.

(e) Patheon will be responsible for investigating all Recalls and returns (other than as a result of the expiration of such Product) resulting from Patheon’s failure to manufacture the Product in accordance with the Specifications and cGMPs, at its own expense, and Patheon will promptly report to the Client in writing the results of any such investigation.

6.3 Disposition of Defective or Recalled Product.

The Client shall not dispose of any damaged, defective, returned or Recalled Product in relation to which it intends to assert a claim against Patheon without Patheon’s prior written authorization to do so. Alternatively, Patheon may instruct the Client to return such Product to Patheon at Patheon’s expense, provided that Client will reimburse Patheon for the cost of such shipping if it is determined that Patheon does not bear any liability for such damaged, defective, returned or Recalled Product. Patheon shall bear the cost of disposition with respect to any damaged, defective, returned or Recalled Product in relation to which it bears responsibility under Section 6.1 or 6.2 hereof. In all other circumstances, the Client shall bear the cost of disposition with respect to any damaged, defective, returned or Recalled Product.

In addition, within ten (10) days from the date of request, Patheon shall provide the Client with all necessary information in Patheon’s possession or control that will enable the Client to respond properly to questions or complaints relating to the Product. If it is determined that the cause of any customer complaint resulted from a failure by Patheon to provide the Manufacturing Services in accordance with the Specifications and cGMPs and any additional procedures agreed upon in writing by Patheon and the Client, or a breach of this Agreement by Patheon, all costs incurred in respect of this Section 6.4 shall be borne by Patheon. In all other circumstances, the Client shall bear the cost incurred with respect to this Section 6.4.

6.5 Sole Remedy.

Except for the indemnity provided in Section 10.3 and subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.1 and 10.2, the remedies described in this Article 6 shall be the Client’s sole remedy for any failure by Patheon to provide the Manufacturing Services in accordance with the Specifications, cGMPs, Applicable Laws or any additional procedures agreed upon in writing by the Client and Patheon.

10.5 Reasonable Allocation of Risk.

The parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Article 10) are reasonable and create a reasonable allocation of risk having regard to the relative profits the parties respectively expect to derive from the Product, and that Patheon, in its fees for the provision of the Manufacturing Services, has not accepted a greater degree of the risks arising from the manufacture, distribution and use of the Product, based on the fact that the Client has developed and holds the marketing approval for the Product and requires Patheon to manufacture and label the Product strictly in accordance with the Specifications, and that the Client and not Patheon is in a position to inform and advise potential users of the Product as to the circumstances and manner of use of the Product.

ARTICLE 11

[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.


shall appoint, within [ * ] Business Days from receipt of such notice of dispute, a single representative having full power and authority to solve the dispute.

2. PREMISES

2.1 Premises. Subject to the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Lease, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord those premises (the “Premises”) shown on the site plan attached as Exhibit A. The approximate total Rentable Area of the Premises is specified in Article 1. The Rentable Area of the Premises shall be conclusively presumed to be as stated in Article 1, and shall not be subject to adjustment by either Landlord or Tenant during the Term.

2.2 Exterior Area. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant and its employees, agents, contractors and invitees (collectively, “Tenant’s Agents”) a license to use the public areas, sidewalks, driveways, parking areas and other public amenities associated with the Premises (the “Exterior Area”) during the Term. Together, the Premises and the Exterior Area are sometimes referred to in this Lease as the “Property.” Tenant’s rights to the Exterior Area shall be subject to Landlord’s reserved rights described in Article 16.

2.3 Parking. Tenant shall have the right to use the number of parking spaces specified in Article 1. Tenant’s rights shall not be assigned, sublet or otherwise transferred separately from the Premises. Except during construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall not at any time park or permit the parking of commercial trucks in any portion of the Exterior Area not designated by Landlord for such use by Tenant. Except during construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall not park nor permit to be parked any inoperative vehicles or store any materials or equipment on any portion of the parking area or other areas of the Exterior Area. Tenant agrees to assume responsibility for compliance by Tenant’s Agents with the parking provisions contained in this Section.

2.4 Furniture. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Bill of Sale attached hereto as Exhibit B, Landlord shall sell to Tenant the movable furniture located in the Premises as of the Commencement Date (the “Movable Furniture”). In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to use the furniture affixed to the Premises as of the Commencement Date, including, without limitation, any modular workstations (the “Affixed Furniture”, and together with the Movable Furniture, the “Existing Furniture”). Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the list of furniture attached hereto as Exhibit C is generally the parties’ understanding of the furniture included within the definition of Existing Furniture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord does not make any express or implied representation or warranty that Exhibit C is an accurate or correct representation of the furniture included within the definition of Existing Furniture. Tenant shall maintain the Affixed Furniture in substantially the same condition and repair as it is on the Commencement Date and at the end of the Term shall surrender the Affixed Furniture in the same condition as it was in as of the Commencement Date (normal wear and tear and damage by casualty excepted), which Landlord acknowledges is in used condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may remove any Affixed Furniture from the Premises that is in unusable condition or becomes worn in the ordinary course of business such that it is no longer appropriate for Tenant’s use, as reasonably determined by Tenant, and shall not have an obligation to surrender such Affixed Furniture at the end of the Term.

3. ACCEPTANCE

The Premises as furnished by Landlord consist of the improvements as they exist as of the Effective Date and Landlord shall have no obligation for construction work or improvements on or to the Premises to prepare the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, except for the repairs set forth on Schedule 3 attached hereto (the “Landlord Repairs”). Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense (not to exceed $15,000), complete the Landlord Repairs within two (2) weeks after the Effective Date and shall cooperate and not materially interfere with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvement Work. Within five (5) business days after completion of the Landlord Repairs, Tenant and Landlord shall conduct a walk-through of the Premises for the purpose of confirming substantial completion of the Landlord Repairs and developing a list of any items that have not been completed (“Punch List Items”). Landlord shall complete the Punch List Items, if any, within a reasonable period of time, not to exceed thirty (30) days, after Landlord and Tenant conduct the walk-through. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the aggregate cost of the Landlord Repairs and Punch List Items exceed $15,000, Landlord shall not be responsible for such excess amount. Upon completion of the Landlord Repairs and Punch List Items, if any, Tenant shall execute a written acknowledgment that the Landlord Repairs and Punch List Items have been completed, and shall reimburse Landlord for any excess costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the Landlord Repairs and Punch List Items. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in the event Landlord determines in its reasonable judgment that the compressors 1A and 2A listed on Schedule 3 need to be replaced, Landlord shall be responsible for the cost of such replacement and the $15,000 cap on the aggregate cost of the Landlord Repairs shall not apply to such replacement. Prior to entering into this Lease, Tenant has made a thorough and independent examination of the Premises and all matters related to Tenant’s decision to enter into this Lease. Tenant is familiar with all aspects of the Premises and the Existing Furniture and, except for the Landlord Repairs, is satisfied that they are in an acceptable condition and meet Tenant’s needs. Except as expressly provided in this Lease, Tenant does not rely on, and Landlord does not make, any express or implied representations or warranties as to any matters including, without limitation, (a) the physical condition of the Premises, Building Structure, Building Systems, the Existing Furniture or the Exterior Area, (b) the existence, quality, adequacy or availability of utilities serving the Premises, (c) the use, habitability, merchantability, fitness or suitability of the Premises for Tenant’s intended use, (d) the likelihood of deriving business from Tenant’s location or the economic feasibility of Tenant’s business, (e) Hazardous Materials in the Premises, or on, in, under or around the Property, (f) zoning, entitlements or any laws, ordinances or regulations which may apply to Tenant’s use of the Premises or business operations, or (g) any other matter. Tenant has satisfied itself as to such suitability and other pertinent matters by Tenant’s own inquiries and tests into all matters relevant in determining whether to enter into this Lease. Except for the Landlord Repairs, Tenant accepts the Premises and the Existing Furniture in their existing “as-is” condition. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Landlord represents and warrants that, to Landlord’s actual knowledge, as of the Effective Date, the Premises is in compliance with the ADA (as defined in Section 11.1) without regard to any compliance with the ADA that may be required due to Tenant’s Alterations (including, without limitation, the Tenant Improvement Work) to the Premises.

4. TERM

4.1 Term. The Premises are leased for an initial term (the “Initial Term”) commencing on the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant (the “Commencement Date”) and expiring on the Initial Term Expiration Date. All of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease other than the payment of Rent (which shall commence on the Rent Commencement Date) shall be effective as of the Commencement Date. As used herein, the term “Term” shall mean the Initial Term plus all Renewal Terms as to which Tenant exercises its Renewal Option, and the term “Expiration Date” shall mean the Initial Term Expiration Date, or the last day of the last such Renewal Term, as applicable. The Term shall end on the Expiration Date, or such earlier date on which this Lease terminates pursuant to its terms. The date upon which this Lease actually terminates, whether by expiration of the Term or earlier termination pursuant to the terms of this Lease, is sometimes referred to in this Lease as the “Termination Date”. Upon delivery of possession, Landlord shall specify in a written notice to Tenant, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, the Commencement Date, Rent Commencement Date and Expiration Date of the Initial Term of this Lease. Such notice shall be delivered promptly after all of the information set forth in the notice has been determined; provided that Landlord’s failure to do so shall not in any way affect either party’s rights or obligations under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord represents and warrants that, as of the Effective Date, the lease agreement between Landlord and Lucent Technologies Inc. (“Lucent”) dated May 26, 1998, pursuant to which Landlord leased the Premises to Lucent, has been terminated.

4.2 Renewal Option. Tenant shall have four consecutive options (each, a “Renewal Option”) in Tenant’s sole discretion, to extend the Term for the following time periods: (a) first Renewal Option is for twelve (12) months after the Initial Term; (b) second Renewal Option is for a consecutive twenty-four (24) months; (c) third Renewal Option is for a consecutive twenty-four (24) months, and (d) fourth Renewal Option is for a consecutive twelve (12), twenty-four (24), thirty-six (36) or forty-eight (48) months, as elected by Tenant in its sole discretion at the time Tenant exercises its fourth Renewal Option (each, a “Renewal Term”). Each Renewal Option shall be automatically void if an Event of Default by Tenant exists and remains uncured at the time of exercise of the Renewal Option. Each Renewal Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice from Tenant to Landlord given not less than six (6) months prior to the expiration of Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term. Each Renewal Option (other than the first Renewal Option) is personal to Tenant and shall be inapplicable and null and void if Tenant assigns its interest under this Lease, except in the event of an assignment pursuant to Section 14.7. Each Renewal Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions as the original Term, except that the Base Rent shall be determined as follows:

 

  (i) First Renewal Term:

Months 49-60: $67,964.44 per month ($1.55 per sq. ft. of Rentable Area)

 

  (ii) Second Renewal Term:

Months 61-72: Prevailing Market Rent as of the commencement of the second Renewal Term (as determined pursuant to Exhibit E).

Months 73-84: 103% of Base Rent for Months 61-72.

 

5


  (iii) Third Renewal Term:

Months 85-96: Prevailing Market Rent as of the commencement of the third Renewal Term (as determined pursuant to Exhibit E).

Months 97-108: 103% of Base Rent for Months 85-96.

 

  (iv) Fourth Renewal Term:

Months 12, 24, 36 or 48 (109-122, 132, 144, or 156): Prevailing Market Rent as of the commencement of the Fourth Renewal Term (as determined pursuant to Exhibit E).

5. RENT

5.1 Base Rent. Commencing upon the Rent Commencement Date, and thereafter during the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the monthly Base Rent specified in Article 1 on or before the first day of each month, in advance, at the address specified for Landlord in Article 1, or at such other place as Landlord designates in writing, without any prior notice or demand and without any deductions or setoff whatsoever (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease). If the Rent Commencement Date occurs on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, or the Termination Date occurs on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, then the Base Rent for such fractional month will be prorated on the basis of the actual number of days in such month.

5.2 Additional Rent. All sums due from Tenant to Landlord under the terms of this Lease (other than Base Rent) shall be additional rent (“Additional Rent”), including without limitation the charges for Operating Expenses (described in Article 7) and all sums incurred by Landlord and reimbursable hereunder by Tenant to Landlord due to Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all Additional Rent that is payable to Landlord shall be paid at the time and place that Base Rent is paid. Landlord will have the same remedies for a default in the payment of any Additional Rent as for a default in the payment of Base Rent. Together, Base Rent and Additional Rent are sometimes referred to in this Lease as “Rent”.

5.3 Late Payment. Any unpaid Rent shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the rate of interest charged by Bank of America at its offices in San Francisco as its prime or reference rate, plus 4% (the “Interest Rate”). In addition, Tenant recognizes that late payment of any Rent will result in administrative expense to Landlord, the extent of which expense is difficult and economically impracticable to determine. Therefore, Tenant agrees that if Tenant fails to pay any Rent within five (5) days after its due date, an additional late charge of five percent (5%) of the sums so overdue shall become immediately due and payable; provided, however, if such a failure occurs only once in any twelve (12) month period, such late charge will not be payable with respect to such a failure. Tenant agrees that the late payment charge is a reasonable estimate of the additional administrative costs and detriment that will be incurred by Landlord as a result of such failure by Tenant. In the event of nonpayment of interest or late charges on overdue Rent, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies provided in this Lease and by law for nonpayment of rent.

 

6


5.4 Security Deposit. Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the Security Deposit described in Article 1 in the form of cash or a letter of credit which is payable as provided herein. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance of this Lease by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. If there is an Event of Default by Tenant with respect to any provisions of this Lease, including but not limited to the payment of Rent, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to), without waiving any of Landlord’s other rights and remedies under this Lease, apply the Security Deposit in whole or in part to remedy any failure by Tenant to pay any sums due under this Lease, to repair or maintain the Premises (with respect to repairs and maintenance that are Tenant’s obligation hereunder), to perform any other terms, covenants or conditions of Tenant contained in this Lease, or to compensate Landlord for any costs, loss or damages which Landlord may suffer due to Tenant’s Event of Default. To the extent inconsistent with the foregoing, Tenant hereby waives any restriction on the uses to which the Security Deposit may be applied as contained in Section 1950.7(c) of the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute, if applicable. Should Landlord so apply any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall replenish the Security Deposit to the original amount within ten (10) business days after written demand by Landlord and Tenant’s failure to do so shall, at Landlord’s option, be an Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on the Security Deposit. No trust relationship is created herein between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Security Deposit. If Landlord transfers the Premises or the Property during the Term, Landlord may pay the Security Deposit to any subsequent assignee or transferee in conformity with the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute, in which event the transferring landlord shall be released from all liability for the return of the Security Deposit. Tenant specifically grants to Landlord (and Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 to the contrary) a period of thirty (30) days following the surrender of the Premises by Tenant to Landlord within which to inspect the Premises, make required restorations and repairs, receive and verify workmen’s billings therefore, and prepare a final accounting with respect to the Security Deposit. In no event shall the Security Deposit be considered prepaid rent, except to the extent Landlord elects to apply such proceeds to rent becoming due in the future. If Tenant elects to use a letter of credit as the Security Deposit, the letter of credit shall be issued by a bank (the “L-C Bank”) reasonably approved by Landlord and shall be in a form that is reasonably acceptable to Landlord in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. The L-C Bank shall be a bank that accepts deposits, maintains accounts, has a local Santa Clara County office that will negotiate the letter of credit, or if no local office then the letter of credit shall provide for draws by Landlord upon delivery of the written draw request by courier or by fax (to be confirmed by telephone and with original to follow within three (3) business days) and payment to be made by wire transfer to Landlord’s account as directed by Landlord upon receipt of the original or fax request. The deposits of the L-C Bank shall be insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Tenant shall pay all expenses, points, or fees incurred by Tenant in obtaining the letter of credit. The letter of credit shall: (a) name Landlord as beneficiary; (b) allow Landlord to make partial and multiple draws thereunder up to the face amount, as determined by Landlord in accordance with this Lease; (c) require the L-C Bank to pay to Landlord the amount of a draw upon receipt by the L-C Bank of a sight draft signed by Landlord and presented to the L-C Bank accompanied by a certification by Landlord that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or that Tenant

 

7


has failed to renew the letter of credit at least thirty (30) days prior to its expiration, and stating that the amount requested by Landlord is the amount needed to compensate Landlord in accordance with this Section 5.4; and (d) provide that Landlord can freely transfer it upon an assignment or other transfer of its interest in this Lease to the assignee or transferee without having to obtain the consent of Tenant or the L-C Bank. The letter of credit shall by its terms expire not less than one (1) year from the date issued, and shall provide for automatic one (1) year extensions unless Landlord is notified in writing not less than sixty (60) days prior to such expiration from the L-C Bank that the letter of credit will not be extended. In any event, unless Tenant deposits with Landlord a comparable cash Security Deposit or a replacement letter of credit, said letter of credit shall be renewed by Tenant for successive periods of not less than one (1) year. Tenant’s failure to renew (including specifically but not limited to the delivery to Landlord of such renewal not less than thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the letter of credit) and maintain such letter of credit, shall entitle Landlord to draw on the letter of credit. Tenant shall be entitled to change banks issuing the letter of credit from time to time, subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval and provided that the letter of credit meets the other conditions of this Section. Landlord shall be entitled to draw upon the letter of credit in accordance with this Section or at any time within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the letter of credit in accordance with the terms of this Lease, unless Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord a replacement letter of credit meeting the requirements of this Section.

6. USE OF PREMISES AND CONDUCT OF BUSINESS

6.1 Permitted Use. Tenant may use and occupy the Premises during the Term solely for the uses specified and permitted in Article 1 and for no other purpose without the prior written consent of Landlord, such consent to be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion; provided that, subject to Article 14, (a) during the first two (2) years of the Term, Tenant shall have the right to Sublease up to fifty percent (50%) of the Premises for service office use (i.e. law firms, accounting firms, consulting firms and other professional service uses, other than medical clinics, medical offices or dental offices) (“Service Office Use”), and (b) at any other time during the Term, Tenant shall have the right to Sublease up to twenty-five (25%) of the Premises for Service Office Use, without Landlord’s approval of a change in use. Tenant’s use of the Property shall in all respects comply with all Applicable Laws (as defined in Section 11.1).

6.2 Prohibited Uses. Tenant shall not use the Premises or allow the Premises to be used for any purpose that (a) is illegal, (b) in any manner causes, creates or results in a waste or a private or public nuisance, (c) is of a nature to involve substantial hazard, such as the manufacture or use of explosives, chemicals or products that may explode or that otherwise may harm the health or welfare of persons or the physical environment (provided that the research, development and manufacture of pharmaceutical and biotechnology products shall not be deemed to be inherently hazardous and is specifically permitted hereunder, subject to the provisions of Article 12), or (d) involves the release of any Hazardous Materials, except for Hazardous Materials that Tenant has the right to use on the Premises pursuant to Section 12.3. Tenant shall not place any loads upon the floors, walls, or ceiling which endanger the structure, or place any Hazardous Material in the drainage system of the Premises, or overload existing electrical or other mechanical systems. Tenant shall not use any machinery or equipment which causes any substantial noise or vibration. No waste materials or refuse shall be dumped upon or

No materials, supplies, equipment, finished products or semi-finished products, raw materials or articles of any nature shall be stored outside or permitted to remain outside the Premises or on any portion of the Exterior Area unless otherwise approved by Landlord in its sole discretion. No loudspeaker or other device, system or apparatus that can be heard by the occupants of any neighboring property shall be used in or at the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No explosives or firearms shall be brought into the Premises.

7. OPERATING EXPENSES

7.1 Net Lease. This Lease is intended to be a net lease, and the Base Rent and all Additional Rent are to be paid by Tenant absolutely net of all costs and expenses relating to Landlord’s ownership, operation and maintenance of the Property, except as specifically provided in this Lease. The provisions of this Article 7 for the payment of Operating Expenses are intended to pass on to Tenant all such costs and expenses that are incurred by Landlord in connection with the ownership, operation and maintenance of the Property beginning on the Rent Commencement Date.

7.2 Operating Expenses. For purposes of this Article 7, “Operating Expenses” means the total costs and expenses paid or incurred by Landlord in connection with the ownership, management, operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the Property, beginning on the Rent Commencement Date, including, without limitation, all costs of:

(a) taxes, assessments and charges levied upon or with respect to the Property or any personal property of Landlord used in the operation of the Property, or on Landlord’s interest in the Property or its personal property (“Real Estate Taxes”). Real Estate Taxes shall include, without limitation, all general real property taxes and general and special assessments, charges, fees, or assessments for transit, housing, police, fire, or other governmental services or purported benefits to the Property or the occupants thereof, service payments in lieu of taxes that are now or hereafter levied or assessed against Landlord by the United States of America, the State of California or any political subdivision thereof, or any other political or public entity, and shall also include any other tax, assessment or fee, however described, that may be levied or assessed as a substitute for, or as an addition to, in whole or in part, any other Real Estate Taxes, whether or not now customary or in the contemplation of the parties as of the Effective Date. Real Estate Taxes shall also include reasonable legal fees, costs, and disbursements incurred in connection with proceedings to contest, determine, or reduce Real Estate Taxes. Real Estate Taxes shall not include franchise, transfer, succession, gift, inheritance, gross receipts or capital stock taxes or income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord unless, due to a change in the method of taxation, any of such taxes is levied or assessed against Landlord as a substitute for, or as an addition to, in whole or in part, any other tax that would otherwise constitute a Real Estate Tax. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to cause all Real Estate Taxes applicable to the Property to be segregated from other real property owned by Landlord, and to have such Real Estate Taxes billed directly to Tenant by the Santa Clara County Assessor. In the event Landlord exercises such right, Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay before delinquency

all such Real Estate Taxes applicable to the Term and shall deliver satisfactory evidence of such payment to Landlord. As soon as reasonably possible after the Commencement Date (taking into account the schedule of the Santa Clara County Tax Assessor) (i) Landlord shall apply for a reduction in all taxes based upon the value of the Premises, (ii) Landlord shall diligently pursue such reduction, (iii) all costs of such application and pursuance shall be the sole responsibility and expense of Landlord, and (iv) any reduction for periods during the Term of this Lease (including any retroactive reduction) shall be immediately passed on and credited to Tenant hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the first six (6) months after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall only be required to pay fifty percent (50%) of the Real Estate Taxes that would otherwise be due and payable under this Lease (taking into account any reductions obtained by Landlord pursuant to this Section (i.e. 50% based on any lower valuation obtained)), unless Tenant enters into an Assignment or Sublease of the Premises (except for an Assignment or Sublease pursuant to Section 14.7) during such six (6) month period, in which event one hundred (100%) of the Real Estate Taxes shall be due during the period of such Assignment or Sublease. To the extent any taxes are assessed that are payable by Tenant hereunder and as to which Landlord could elect to pay a lump sum or installments over time, Landlord will elect to pay in installments, and Tenant shall be responsible for only those installments due during the Term.

(b) repair, maintenance, replacement and supply of air conditioning, heating, ventilating, mechanical, elevator, sanitary and storm drainage systems and all other mechanical systems (the “Building Systems”);

(c) landscaping and gardening of the Exterior Area;

(d) repaving, repairing, maintaining and restriping of parking areas, amortized over its useful life as reasonably determined by Landlord;

(e) repairs and maintenance to the Exterior Area, and all labor and material costs related thereto;

(f) repair, maintenance and replacement of any security systems and fire protection systems installed in the Premises;

(g) reasonable general maintenance, janitorial services, trash removal, cleaning and service contracts and the cost of all supplies, tools and equipment required in connection therewith;

(h) all premiums and costs for reasonable insurance carried by Landlord on the Premises, the Exterior Area and the Property, or in connection with the use or occupancy thereof (including all amounts paid as a result of loss sustained that would be covered by such policies but for deductible or self-insurance provisions up to $25,000), including, but not limited to, the premiums and cost of fire and extended coverage, earthquake, vandalism and malicious mischief, public liability and property damage, worker’s compensation insurance, rental income insurance and any other insurance commonly carried by prudent owners of comparable buildings, provided that Tenant shall not be responsible for the costs of terrorism or mold insurance;

 

10


(i) to the extent not included in subsection (j) below, wages, salaries, payroll taxes and other labor costs and employee benefits for all persons (excluding executives of Landlord or Landlord’s managing agent) engaged in the operation, management, maintenance and security of the Property;

(j) a commercially reasonable management fee that, as long as The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University (or any affiliate of it) is the Landlord under this Lease, is payable to an entity other than Landlord (or any affiliate of Landlord);

(k) fees, charges and other costs of all independent contractors engaged by Landlord to provide services to be provided by Landlord hereunder;

(l) license, permit and inspection fees for work required to be performed by Landlord hereunder;

(m) the cost of any transit services or traffic mitigation programs that Landlord implements in the Stanford Research Park, including without limitation charges for service and surcharges imposed directly or indirectly on the Property by any governmental agencies on or with respect to transit (including transit services which may be provided in the future to occupants of the Stanford Research Park) or automobile usage or parking facilities (collectively, “Transit Fees”). Tenant’s share of Transit Fees shall be assessed pro rata and on a non-discriminatory basis, based on a reasonable standard applied in a non-discriminatory manner (that is not based on whether other tenants of Landlord are obligated to pay such Transit Fees) by Landlord (for example, based on the rentable area of the Premises as compared to the total rentable area of the Stanford Research Park (or the area being served by the service, if less than the entire Stanford Research Park), or based on the average employee headcount in the Premises as compared to the overall employee density of the Stanford Research Park). Tenant shall not be required to pay any Transit Fees for programs that do not serve the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord represents that, as of the Effective Date, there are no Transit Fees applicable to the Premises;

(n) Tenant’s pro rata share (based on the Rentable Area of the Premises as compared to the Rentable Area of the other properties of Landlord that use such supplies, tools, machines and equipment) of the cost of supplies, tools, machines and equipment used in operation and maintenance of the Exterior Area;

(o) any reasonable capital improvements to the Property that are (i) necessary to satisfy Landlord’s maintenance and repair obligations under this Lease, (ii) made to the Property as a labor-saving or energy saving device, (iii) made to the Property to reduce Operating Expenses, or (iv) required due to any change in Applicable Law after the date of this Lease; provided that the cost of any such capital improvements shall be amortized over the useful life of the improvement in question (determined in accordance with applicable tax laws), together with interest on the unamortized balance at an interest rate equal to Landlord’s cost of funds used for the purpose of constructing such capital improvements;

(p) the cost of contesting the validity or applicability of any governmental enactments that may affect Operating Expenses;

 

11


(q) audit and bookkeeping fees, legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the operation or management of the Property, including, without limitation, the costs of audits by certified public accountants of Operating Expense records (excluding costs incurred in connection with negotiations or disputes with tenants or prospective tenants);

(r) to the extent not included within subsection (j) above, Tenant’s pro rata share (based on the Rentable Area of the Premises as compared to the Rentable Area of all of Landlord’s properties within the Stanford Research Park supported by such office) of the costs for an off-site property management office; and

(s) any other expenses of any kind whatsoever reasonably incurred in connection with the management, operation, maintenance and repair of the Property.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) all capital improvements included within the definition of Operating Expenses shall be amortized over the useful life of the improvement in question (determined in accordance with applicable tax laws), and (ii) Operating Expenses shall not include the repairs and replacements to the Building Structure that shall be performed at Landlord’s sole cost and expense pursuant to Section 8.1.

7.3 Payment of Operating Expenses. Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent one twelfth (1/12) of the Operating Expenses for each calendar year or portion thereof during the Term, in advance, on or before the first day of each month in an amount estimated by Landlord as stated in a written notice to Tenant. Landlord may by written notice to Tenant revise such estimates from time to time and Tenant shall thereafter make payments on the basis of such revised estimates. With reasonable promptness after the expiration of each calendar year, Landlord will furnish Tenant with a statement (“Landlord’s Expense Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail the actual Operating Expenses for the prior calendar year and, if requested by Tenant, including reasonable back-up documentation. If the actual Operating Expenses for such year exceed the estimated Operating Expenses paid by Tenant for such year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord (whether or not this Lease has terminated) the difference between the amount of estimated Operating Expenses paid by Tenant and the actual Operating Expenses within twenty (20) days after the receipt of Landlord’s Expense Statement. If the total amount paid by Tenant for any year exceeds the actual Operating Expenses for that year, the excess shall be credited against the next installments of Base Rent due from Tenant to Landlord, or, if after the Termination Date, the excess shall first be credited against any unpaid Base Rent or Additional Rent due and any remaining excess shall be refunded to Tenant concurrently with the furnishing of Landlord’s Expense Statement.

7.4 Proration. If either the Rent Commencement Date or the Termination Date occurs on a date other than the first or last day, respectively, of a calendar year, Operating Expenses for the year in which the Rent Commencement Date or Termination Date occurs shall be prorated based on a 365-day year.

7.5 Utility Costs. Commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall make all arrangements for all utilities and other services exclusively furnished to or used at the Premises, including, without limitation, water, gas, electricity, telephone and other electronic communications services, sewer service, waste pick-up and any other utilities, materials and services.

 

12


7.6 Taxes on Tenant’s Property and Business. Tenant shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes levied or assessed by any local, state or federal authority upon the conduct of Tenant’s business in the Premises or upon Tenant’s Property (as defined in Section 9.5) and shall deliver satisfactory evidence of such payment to Landlord. If the assessed value of the Property is increased by the inclusion of a value placed upon Tenant’s Property, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon written demand, the taxes so levied against Landlord, or the portion of Landlord’s taxes resulting from said increase in assessment, as determined from time to time by Landlord.

7.7 Tenant’s Right to Perform. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Tenant may elect at any time by written notice to Landlord to undertake the service, repair, maintenance and replacement obligations set forth in Sections 7.2 and 8.1, or any portion thereof; provided that in all circumstances Landlord shall continue to pay, and be reimbursed by Tenant for, the costs set forth in Section 7.2(a), (h), (m) and (o). In the event Tenant elects to undertake a portion of such obligations, the management fee owing to Landlord pursuant to Section 7.2(j) shall be equitably reduced as reasonably determined by Landlord and in the event Tenant elects to undertake all of such obligations (excepting those set forth in Section 7.2(a), (h), (m) and (o)), Tenant shall not owe Landlord any management fee or any amounts under Sections 7.2(i), (n) or (r) . Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to take over the service, repair, maintenance and replacement obligations set forth in Sections 7.2 and 8.1 upon written notice to Tenant in the event: (a) Tenant elects to undertake such obligations but fails to perform such obligations in a manner commensurate with comparable office buildings located in the Stanford Research Park and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord of such failure (the “Failure Notice”), (b) Landlord delivers in good faith more than three (3) Failure Notices within any twelve (12) month period, or (c) Tenant enters into an Assignment of this Lease or a Sublease of more than fifty (50%) of the Premises, except for an Assignment or Sublease in accordance with Section 14.7. In the event Tenant elects to undertake such obligations, or any portion thereof, Landlord shall have the right at least once in any twelve (12) month period, after five (5) days notice to Tenant, to conduct an inspection of the Premises to ensure that Tenant is meeting the requirements set forth in this Section 7.7 and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable costs incurred in conducting such investigation within twenty (20) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord.

7.8 Tenant’s Audit Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right, after reasonable notice, at reasonable times, and no more than once in any calendar year, to inspect and photocopy at Landlord’s office Landlord’s accounting records relating to the operation and management of the Property. If, after such inspection and photocopying, Tenant disputes the amount of Operating Expenses, Tenant shall have the right to engage an independent certified public accountant reasonably approved by Landlord to audit and/or review Landlord’s records to determine the proper amount of Operating Expenses. If it shall be finally determined by such audit that there was an error in calculating the Operating Expenses, then either (a) Landlord shall at its election reimburse Tenant for any overpayment or credit the amount of such overpayment against the next monthly installment of Operating Expenses payable under this Lease, or (b) Tenant shall within twenty (20) days after

 

13


such determination pay any amounts due to Landlord. If Landlord desires to contest such audit results, Landlord may do so by submitting the results of the audit to arbitration through JAMS San Jose or San Francisco offices within thirty (30) days after receipt of the results of the audit, and the arbitration shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such audit, provided that, if the audit reveals that Landlord’s determination of Operating Expenses was in error in Landlord’s favor by more than five percent (5%), Landlord shall pay the cost of such audit. Nothing in this Section 7.8 shall entitle Tenant to withhold any disputed portion of Operating Expenses pending the results of the audit.

8. REPAIRS, MAINTENANCE AND SERVICES

8.1 Landlord’s Obligations. Except as specifically provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to furnish any services, facilities or utilities to the Premises or to Tenant, and Tenant assumes full responsibility for obtaining and paying for all services, facilities and utilities to the Premises. Landlord will repair, replace and maintain the Building Systems, the Exterior Area, and the structural portions of the Premises, including the foundation, floor/ceiling slabs, roof, curtain wall, mullions, columns, beams, shafts (including elevator shafts), stairs, stairwells, and elevators (collectively, the “Building Structure”). Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing when it becomes aware of the need for any repair, maintenance or replacement which is Landlord’s responsibility under this Section. The costs of such repair, replacement and maintenance shall be included in Operating Expenses; provided, however, that Operating Expenses will not include costs (and Tenant will not be billed for such costs) for any capital repair to or replacement of the Building Structure (excluding the costs of non-capital repair and maintenance of the Building Structure). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon written demand as Additional Rent for the cost of any repair to the Premises, Building Structure, Building Systems or Exterior Area which is attributable to the conduct (other than Tenant’s use of the Premises in the ordinary course of business) of Tenant or Tenant’s Agent. This reimbursement shall be Additional Rent. Tenant hereby waives and releases any right it may have under any law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect to make any repairs which are Landlord’s obligation under this Section.

8.2 Tenant’s Obligations. Except as provided in Sections 8.1, 12.2(b), 12.5(b) and 12.5(c), Tenant assumes full responsibility for the repair, replacement and maintenance of the Premises. Tenant shall take good care of the Premises and keep the Premises (other than the Exterior Area, Building Structure and Building Systems which are the responsibility of Landlord) in good working order and in a clean, safe and sanitary condition. All repairs and replacements by Tenant shall be made and performed: (a) at Tenant’s cost and expense, (b) by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord, in accordance with Section 9.3(a), (c) so that same shall be at least equal in quality, value and utility to the original work or installation at the Effective Date, (d) in a manner and using equipment and materials that will not interfere with or impair the operation of the Building Systems, and (e) in accordance with Article 9 (if applicable), and all Applicable Laws.

8.3 Security. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the security of the Premises and Tenant’s Agents while in or about the Premises. Any security services provided to the Property by Landlord shall be at Landlord’s sole discretion and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or Tenant’s Agents for any failure to provide security services or any loss, injury or damage suffered as a result of a failure to provide security services.

 

14


8.4 Special Services. If Tenant requests any services from Landlord other than those for which Landlord is obligated under this Lease, Tenant shall make its request in writing and Landlord may elect in its sole discretion whether to provide the requested services. If Landlord provides any special services to Tenant, Landlord shall charge Tenant for such services at the actual cost incurred by Landlord in providing the services and Tenant shall pay the cost of such services as Additional Rent within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of Landlord’s invoice.

9. INITIAL IMPROVEMENT WORK; ALTERATIONS

9.1 Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall be responsible for the design and construction of all initial improvements to the Premises (the “Tenant Improvement Work”) and shall use diligent efforts to cause the construction of the Tenant Improvement Work in a first class manner and in compliance with all Applicable Laws. Without limiting any other provision of this Lease, all of the provisions of this Article 9 and of Article 10 (Liens) shall apply to the Tenant Improvement Work. Landlord shall provide to Tenant a Tenant Improvement Allowance in the amount of $11.40 per square foot of Rentable Area, for a total Tenant Improvement Allowance of $500,000. Any costs in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be paid by Tenant. The Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be used for the cost of developing and constructing the improvements to the Premises as set forth in the Site Plan dated May 14, 2004 and hereby approved by Landlord (including architects, design, inspection, construction and project management costs and related services and expenses, insurance and utilities) and shall not be used for any items of personal property. Landlord shall pay the Tenant Improvement Allowance to Tenant after the later of: (a) the date Tenant occupies the Premises and commences its business operations from the Premises, and (b) the Rent Commencement Date; provided that Tenant has provided to Landlord (x) an itemized statement of Tenant Improvement Work expenses, accompanied by reasonably detailed invoices and other supporting information as is reasonably requested by Landlord, and (y) either (i) unconditional lien releases in the form required under California Civil Code Section 3262 from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen who shall have furnished materials or supplies or performed work or services in connection with the Tenant Improvement Work or (ii) evidence that Tenant has bonded over any liens that are in good faith disputed by Tenant. In the event Tenant does not expend all of the Tenant Improvement Allowance in construction of the Tenant Improvement Work, Landlord shall pay such excess amount to Tenant with the payment of the expended Tenant Improvement Allowance pursuant to the foregoing sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have no obligation to pay the Tenant Improvement Allowance to the extent that (i) an Event of Default by Tenant exists under this Lease; (ii) a lien has been filed with respect to the Tenant Improvement Work that has not been released (subject to Tenant’s right to bond over any liens that are in good faith disputed by Tenant); (iii) Tenant is not in compliance with the terms of all applicable permits for the Tenant Improvement Work; or (iv) the insurance required under this Lease is not in full force and effect; in each case until such Event of Default or failure to comply is cured, at which time payment will be made.

After completion of the Tenant Improvement Work, Tenant shall not make or permit any alterations to the Building Systems, and shall not make or permit any alterations, installations, additions or improvements, structural or otherwise (collectively, “Alterations”) in or to the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent, which Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. Landlord shall respond to any request by Tenant to make any Alteration within ten (10) business days after receipt of such request for consent from Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s consent shall not be required (a) in the case of interior, cosmetic non-structural Alterations that do not require a permit, or affect the Building Systems, or affect the entryways or elevators, or (b) in the case of other Alterations that do not exceed a total price of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) per project and do not affect the Building Systems or the structural integrity of the Premises. All Alterations shall be done at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, including without limitation the cost and expense of obtaining all permits and approvals required for any Alterations.

9.3 Project Requirements. The following provisions of this Section 9.3 shall apply to all Alterations, whether or not requiring Landlord’s approval (unless otherwise noted):

(a) Prior to entering into a contract for Alterations requiring Landlord’s approval, Tenant shall obtain Landlord’s written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, of the identity of each of the design architect and the general contractor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of the Tenant Improvement Work, the following architects and general contractors are hereby approved by Landlord: Dowler-Gruman Associates and SC Builders, Inc.

(b) Before commencing the construction of any Alterations, Tenant shall procure or cause to be procured the insurance coverage (either as part of Tenant’s regular insurance policy or by separate policies) described below and provide Landlord with certificates of such insurance in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

(d) Prior to the commencement of any Alteration in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000), Landlord shall have the right to post in a conspicuous location on the Premises and to record in the public records a notice of Landlord’s nonresponsibility. Tenant covenants and agrees to give Landlord at least ten (10) days prior written notice of the commencement of any such Alteration in order that Landlord shall have sufficient time to post such notice.

(e) Tenant shall take all necessary safety precautions during any construction.

(f) Tenant shall prepare and maintain (i) on a current basis during construction, annotated plans and specifications showing clearly all changes, revisions and substitutions during construction, and (ii) upon completion of construction of the Alterations, as-built drawings showing clearly all changes, revisions and substitutions during construction, including, without limitation, field changes and the final location of all mechanical equipment, utility lines, ducts, outlets, structural members, walls, partitions and other significant features.

9.4 Ownership of Improvements. Except as provided in Section 9.5, all Tenant Improvement Work, Alterations, and any other appurtenances, fixtures, improvements, equipment, additions and property permanently attached to or installed in the Premises at the commencement of or during the Term, shall at the end of the Term become Landlord’s property without compensation to Tenant, or be removed in accordance with this Section. Upon written request by Tenant, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing at the time of Landlord’s approval of Alterations whether or not the proposed Alterations will be required to be removed by Tenant at the end of the Term. Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any (a) Alterations that Landlord has not designated in writing for removal, or (b) the Tenant Improvement Work. Tenant shall repair or pay the cost of repairing any damage to the Premises caused by the removal of Alterations. If Tenant fails to perform its repair obligations, without limiting any other right or remedy, Landlord may on five (5) business days prior written notice to Tenant perform such obligations at Tenant’s expense and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within twenty (20) days after demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such repair. Tenant’s obligations under this Section shall survive the termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, wet laboratory case work, fume hoods, flow hoods, high density filing systems and cabinets, computing and telecommunications equipment, appliances and Tenant’s Property will be considered trade fixtures owned by Tenant, and subject to Section 9.5, Tenant shall have the right to remove or leave them at the end of the Term.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant’s Property shall not include the Affixed Furniture. Tenant shall remove from the Premises all Tenant’s Property on or before the Termination Date, except such items as the parties have agreed pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or by separate agreement are to remain and to become the property of Landlord. Tenant shall repair or pay the cost of repairing any damage to the Premises resulting from such removal, and the provisions of Section 9.4 above shall apply in the event Tenant fails to do so. Any items of Tenant’s Property which remain in the Premises after the Termination Date may, on five (5) business days prior written notice to Tenant, at the option of Landlord, be deemed abandoned and in such case may either be retained by Landlord as its property or be disposed of, without accountability, at Tenant’s expense in such manner as Landlord may see fit.

10. LIENS

Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, material furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant and not paid when due. If Tenant does not, within ten (10) days following notice of the imposition of any such lien, cause the lien

 

18


to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided in this Lease and by law, the right but not the obligation to cause any such lien to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection therewith (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees) shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant upon demand with interest from the date incurred at the Interest Rate. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices permitted or required by law or that Landlord shall deem proper for the protection of Landlord and the Premises from mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens, as more specifically provided in Section 9.3(d).

Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall be solely responsible for compliance with and shall make or cause to be made all such improvements and alterations to the Premises (including, without limitation, removing barriers and providing alternative services) as shall be required to comply with all applicable building codes, laws and ordinances relating to public accommodations associated with or arising from Tenant’s use of the Premises or Tenant’s Alterations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12111 et seq.

11.2 Insurance Requirements. Tenant shall not do anything, or permit anything to be done, in or about the Premises that would subject Landlord to any liability or

 

19


responsibility for injury to any person or property by reason of any business operation being conducted in the Premises. Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease, effective upon notice to Tenant, in the event Tenant does anything or permits anything to be done, in or about the Premises that (a) invalidates or is in conflict with the provisions of or causes any increase in the applicable rates for any fire or other insurance policies covering the Premises or any property located therein (unless Tenant pays for such increased costs), or (b) results in a refusal by fire insurance companies of good standing to insure the Premises or any such property in amounts reasonably satisfactory to Landlord (which amounts shall be comparable to the amounts required by comparable landlords of comparable buildings).

12.2 Environmental Releases.

(a) Tenant represents to Landlord that Tenant is aware that detectable amounts of Hazardous Materials have come to be located on, beneath and/or in the vicinity of the Premises as described in the documents listed on Schedule 12.2 attached hereto (the “Pre-Existing Environmental Condition”). Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Property and Tenant’s interest under this Lease are subject to an Access Agreement for Monitoring Wells, Groundwater Extraction Wells, a Conveyance Pipeline, and Water Treatment Plant at 3176 Porter Drive, 3180 Porter Drive, 3210 Porter Drive and 3277 Miranda Avenue, Palo Alto, California dated December 4, 1992 between Landlord and Loral/Librascope Corporation (the “Access Agreement”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit F. Tenant has made such investigations and inquiries as it deems appropriate to ascertain the effects, if any, of the Pre-Existing Environmental Condition on its operations and persons using the Premises and the Exterior Area. Landlord makes no representation or warranty with regard to any aspect of the environmental condition of the Premises, the Exterior Area or the Property. Subject to Section 12.5(b), Tenant, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby releases Landlord and Landlord’s officers, directors, trustees, agents and employees from any and all claims, demands, debts, liabilities, and causes of action of whatever kind or nature, whether known or unknown or suspected or unsuspected which Tenant or any of Tenant’s Agents may have, claim to have, or which may hereafter accrue against the released parties or any of them, arising out of or relating to or in any way connected with the Pre-Existing Environmental Condition. In connection with such release, Tenant hereby waives any and all rights conferred upon it by the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads as follows:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.

or by the provisions of any similar statute. Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to release Landlord (i) from its indemnity obligation set forth in Section 12.5(b), or (ii) from any claim that a third party may have directly against Landlord under law.

(b) Landlord hereby releases Tenant from any and all claims, demands, debts, liabilities, and causes of action of whatever kind or nature, whether known or unknown or suspected or unsuspected which Landlord may have, claim to have, or which may hereafter accrue against Tenant, arising out of or relating to or in any way connected with the Pre-Existing

 

21


Environmental Condition, except to the extent the acts or negligent omissions of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents or subtenants on or about the Premises cause an exacerbation of the Pre-Existing Environmental Condition. In connection with such release, Landlord hereby waives any and all rights conferred upon it by the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads as follows:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.

or by the provisions of any similar statute. Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to release Tenant from any obligations or indemnities it has expressly agreed to or assumed under this Lease.

12.3 Use of Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be used, stored, discharged, released or disposed of in the Premises or cause any Hazardous Materials to be used, stored, discharged, released or disposed of in, from, under or about, the Property, or any other land or improvements in the vicinity of the Property, excepting only the types and minor quantities of Hazardous Materials which are normally used in connection with Tenant’s permitted use of the Premises and then only in strict accordance with all Applicable Laws, including all Environmental Laws. As of the Commencement Date, Tenant shall provide Landlord a complete list of all Hazardous Materials (excluding standard janitorial and office products) used or stored by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Agents or subtenants at the Premises. Throughout the Term, Tenant shall continue to update this list so that it remains current. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall, at its own expense, procure, maintain in effect and comply with all conditions of any and all permits, licenses, and other governmental and regulatory approvals required for Tenant’s use of Hazardous Materials at the Premises, including, without limitation, discharge of appropriately treated materials or wastes into or through any sanitary sewer serving the Premises. Tenant shall in all respects handle, treat, deal with and manage any and all Hazardous Materials in total conformity with all Environmental Laws and prudent industry practices regarding management of such Hazardous Materials.

12.4 Remediation of Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall, upon demand of Landlord, and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, promptly take all actions to remediate the Premises from any adverse effects of any Tenant Environmental Activity. Such actions shall include, but not be limited to, the investigation of the environmental condition of the Premises, the preparation of any feasibility studies, reports or remedial plans, and the performance of any cleanup, remediation, containment, operation, maintenance, monitoring or restoration work, whether on or off of the Property. Tenant shall take all actions necessary to remediate the Premises from the effects of such Tenant Environmental Activity to a condition allowing unrestricted use of the Premises (i.e. to a level that will allow any future use of the Premises, including residential, hospital, or day care, without any engineering controls or deed restrictions) notwithstanding any lesser standard of remediation allowable under Applicable Laws; provided that Tenant shall be responsible for remediation to the foregoing standard only with respect to the effects of Tenant’s Environmental Activity and not with respect to the results of any Pre-Existing Environmental Condition or Third Party Environmental Condition (except to the extent included within the definition of Tenant’s Environmental Activity). All work shall be performed

 

22


by one or more contractors selected by Tenant and reasonably approved in advance and in writing by Landlord. Tenant shall proceed continuously and diligently with such investigatory and remedial actions, provided that in all cases such actions shall be in accordance with all Applicable Laws. Any such actions shall be performed in a good, safe and workmanlike manner. Tenant shall pay all costs in connection with such investigatory and remedial activities, including but not limited to all power and utility costs, and any and all taxes or fees that may be applicable to such activities. Tenant shall promptly provide to Landlord copies of testing results and reports that are generated in connection with the above activities and any that are submitted to any governmental entity. Promptly upon completion of such investigation and remediation, Tenant shall permanently seal or cap all monitoring wells and test holes in accordance with sound engineering practice and in compliance with Applicable Laws, remove all associated equipment, and restore the Premises to the maximum extent possible, which shall include, without limitation, the repair of any surface damage, including paving, caused by such investigation or remediation.

12.5 Indemnities.

(a) Tenant shall indemnify, defend (by counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord), protect and hold Landlord and Landlord’s trustees, directors, officers, agents and employees and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord’s Indemnitees”), free and harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, penalties, forfeitures, losses or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and oversight and response costs) to the extent arising from (a) any Tenant Environmental Activity; or (b) failure of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents to comply with any Environmental Law with respect to any Tenant Environmental Activity; or (c) Tenant’s failure to remove any Hazardous Materials resulting from any Tenant Environmental Activity as required in Section 12.4. Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall include, but not be limited to, the burden and expense of defending all claims, suits and administrative proceedings (with counsel reasonably approved by Landlord), even if such claims, suits or proceedings are groundless, false or fraudulent; conducting all negotiations of any description; and promptly paying and discharging when due any and all judgments, penalties, fines or other sums due against or from Landlord or the Premises. Prior to retaining counsel to defend such claims, suits or proceedings, Tenant shall obtain Landlord’s written approval of the identity of such counsel, which Landlord shall reasonably approve or disapprove within three (3) business days after receipt of an approval request from Tenant; provided that if Landlord fails to respond within such three (3) business day period, such counsel shall be deemed approved. In the event Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease free of Hazardous Materials resulting from any Tenant Environmental Activity prevents Landlord from reletting the Premises, or reduces the fair market and/or rental value of the Premises or any portion thereof, Tenant’s indemnity obligations shall include all losses to Landlord arising therefrom.

(b) Landlord shall indemnify, defend (by counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant), protect and hold Tenant and Tenant’s directors, officers, agents, and employees and their respective successors and assigns (not including any subtenants) (collectively, “Tenant’s Indemnitees”), free and harmless from and against (i) any government-required investigations and remediation costs incurred by Tenant and (ii) any third party claims brought against Tenant (other than those brought by Tenant’s employees), in either event only to the extent caused by a Pre-Existing Environmental Condition (except to the extent caused by the exacerbation of any

 

23


Pre-Existing Environmental Condition arising out of or resulting from the acts or negligent omissions of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents or subtenants on or about the Premises). Landlord’s obligations hereunder shall include, but not be limited to, the burden and expense of defending all such claims, suits and administrative proceedings (with counsel reasonably approved by Tenant), even if such claims, suits or proceedings are groundless, false or fraudulent; conducting all negotiations of any description; and promptly paying and discharging when due any and all judgments, penalties, fines or other sums due against or from Tenant or the Premises. Landlord’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall extend only to Tenant’s actual costs.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Article 12 and the indemnities and releases provided herein shall not apply to, and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any contractual liability under this Lease with respect to any Hazardous Materials that may (i) exist in, on or under the Premises or the Property as of the Effective Date (other than the Pre-Existing Environmental Condition), (ii) be deposited or released in, on or under the Premises or the Property after the Effective Date by any third party other than Tenant or any of Tenant’s Agents or any subtenants of Tenant, (iii) migrate into, on or under the Premises or the Property from any other property after the Effective Date (other than the Pre-Existing Environmental Condition), or (iv) arise from any activities by Loral/Librascope Corporation or its successors, assigns, contractors, consultants or agents under the Access Agreement (except to the extent included within the definition of Tenant Environmental Activity or to the extent arising out of Tenant’s interference with Loral/Librascope Corporation’s rights under the Access Agreement) (collectively, as described in clauses (i) through (iv), “Third Party Environmental Condition”).

12.6 No Lien. Tenant shall not suffer any lien to be recorded against the Premises or the Property as a consequence of any Tenant Environmental Activity, including any so called state, federal or local “super fund” lien related to the remediation of any Hazardous Materials resulting from any Tenant Environmental Activity in or about the Premises or the Property.

12.7 Investigation. Landlord shall have the right to enter and conduct an inspection of the Premises, including invasive tests, at any reasonable time and upon reasonable advance notice, to determine whether Tenant is complying with the terms of this Lease, including but not limited to the compliance of the Premises and the activities thereon with Environmental Laws (the “Environmental Investigation”). Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to retain at its expense an independent professional consultant to enter the Premises to conduct such an inspection, and to review any report prepared by or for Tenant concerning such compliance. In the event the Environmental Investigation identifies any deficiencies in the compliance of the Premises with Environmental Laws due to any Tenant Environmental Activity, Tenant shall promptly correct any such deficiencies identified in the Environmental Investigation, and document to Landlord that corrective action has been taken. In such event, Tenant shall also reimburse Landlord for the reasonable cost of the Environmental Investigation. If the Environmental Investigation identifies any such deficiency in compliance of the Premises with Environmental Laws due to any Tenant Environmental Activity, then, within nine (9) months of the date of the Environmental Investigation, Landlord may request a detailed review of the status of such violation by a consultant selected by Landlord (the “Supplemental Investigation”). Tenant shall pay for the reasonable cost of any Supplemental Investigation. A copy of the Supplemental Investigation shall be promptly supplied to Landlord and Tenant when it becomes available.

 

24


12.8 Right to Remediate. Should Tenant fail to initiate performance and diligently pursue such performance or initiate observance of any of its obligations or agreements pertaining to Hazardous Materials or Environmental Laws within a grace period of ten (10) business days after written notice by Landlord to Tenant, then Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, without limitation of any other rights of Landlord hereunder, to enter the Premises personally or through Landlord’s agents, employees and contractors and perform the same. Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord for the costs thereof and liabilities therefrom as set forth above in this Article 12.

12.9 Notices. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of any inquiry, test, claim, investigation or enforcement proceeding by or against Tenant or the Premises or the Property known to Tenant concerning any Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of any release or discharge of Hazardous Materials on, in under or about the Property. Landlord and Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, cooperate with each other regarding any negotiation, defense, approval and appeal of any action taken or order issued by any applicable governmental authority as a result of any Tenant Environmental Activity; provided that, in the event of any enforcement action by any applicable governmental authority, Landlord shall have exclusive control over such negotiation, defense, approval or appeal, but with input from Tenant.

12.10 Enforcement of Indemnity. In the event any Hazardous Materials are identified on the Property that Landlord reasonably believes are the responsibility of Lucent as the prior tenant of the Property, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, for the mutual benefit of Landlord and Tenant, any indemnity claim it has against Lucent with respect to such Hazardous Materials. If Tenant suffers actual damage or liability as a result of such Hazardous Materials, any award that Landlord receives as a result of the exercise of such right shall be equitably shared with Tenant to compensate Tenant for such damage or liability. Similarly, in the event of any deposit, release or migration of any Hazardous Materials in, on or under the Property as a result of any activities by Loral/Librascope Corporation or its successors, assigns, contractors, consultants or agents under the Access Agreement, which requires any remediation beyond that already being pursued by Loral/Librascope Corporation or which potentially imposes any liability upon Tenant, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, for the mutual benefit of Landlord and Tenant, any indemnity claim it has against Loral/Librascope Corporation with respect to such Hazardous Materials. If Tenant suffers actual damage or liability as a result of such Hazardous Materials, any award that Landlord receives as a result of the exercise of such right shall be equitably shared with Tenant to compensate Tenant for such damage or liability.

12.11 Tenant’s Inspection Right. Tenant shall have the right to conduct invasive testing of the Property to determine whether Tenant is in compliance with its obligations under this Lease, provided that Tenant obtains Landlord’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Landlord’s environmental consultant may attend any test or investigation at the Property and shall be entitled, without cost, to duplicates of any samples taken by Tenant (or, if duplicates are not reasonably attainable, Tenant may elect to deliver the actual samples after testing) and to copies of all written reports and data prepared by or on behalf

 

25


of Tenant. Any request for consent must be delivered to Landlord, together with a reasonably detailed investigation plan sufficient for Landlord to determine the scope and logistics of the proposed investigation, at least three (3) business days before the desired test. Any invasive sampling or testing permitted by Landlord shall be performed at Tenant’s sole cost in compliance with all Environmental Laws. Promptly after any physical inspection of the Property, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, restore the Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such inspection.

12.12 Surrender. Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord, upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, free of Hazardous Materials resulting from any Tenant Environmental Activity in accordance with the provisions of this Article 12.

12.13 Survival; Insurance. The provisions of this Article 12 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. The provisions of Article 13 (Insurance) shall not limit in any way Tenant’s obligations under this Article 12.

13. INDEMNITY; INSURANCE

13.1 Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend and save and hold Landlord and Landlord’s Indemnitees harmless from and against any and all losses, costs, liabilities, claims, judgments, liens, damages and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (including Landlord’s in-house counsel), and reasonable investigation costs, incurred in connection with or arising from: (a) any default by Tenant in the observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed, or (b) the use or occupancy or manner of use or occupancy of the Premises and the Property by Tenant and Tenant’s Agents, (c) the condition of the Premises, and any occurrence on the Premises (including injury to or death of any person, or damage to property) or the Property from any cause whatsoever occurring after the Effective Date, except to the extent caused by the active negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s employees, contractors or agents or to the extent released by Landlord pursuant to Section 12.2(b), and (d) any acts or omissions or negligence of Tenant or of Tenant’s Agents, in, on or about the Premises or the Exterior Area. In case any action or proceeding be brought, made or initiated against Landlord relating to any matter covered by Tenant’s indemnification obligations under this Section or under Section 12.5, Landlord will provide prompt written notice of such action or proceeding and Tenant, upon notice from Landlord, shall at its sole cost and expense, resist or defend such claim, action or proceeding by counsel approved by Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld; provided that Landlord shall not disapprove any counsel designated by Tenant’s insurance carrier. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Landlord is reasonably concerned about Tenant’s solvency or a claim under this indemnity is not fully covered (less a reasonable deductible) by Tenant’s insurance, Landlord may retain its own counsel to defend or assist in defending any claim, action or proceeding involving potential liability of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or more, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel. Tenant’s obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

 

26


13.2 Insurance. Tenant shall procure at its sole cost and expense and keep in effect during the Term:

(a) commercial general liability insurance covering Tenant’s operations in the Premises and the use and occupancy of the Premises and the Property and any part thereof by Tenant. Such insurance shall include broad form contractual liability insurance coverage insuring Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Such coverage shall be written on an “occurrence” form and shall have a minimum combined single limit of liability of not less than two million dollars ($2,000,000.00). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Tenant elects to perform Landlord’s management and maintenance obligations pursuant to Section 7.7, Tenant shall procure and keep commercial general liability insurance with a minimum combined single limit of liability of not less than three million dollars ($3,000,000.00) for so long as Tenant continues to perform such management and maintenance obligations, unless Tenant hires a professional third-party property management firm to perform such management and maintenance obligations and such firm carries commercial general liability insurance satisfying the requirements of this Section with a minimum combined single limit of liability of not less than three million dollars ($3,000,000.00). Tenant’s policy shall be written to apply to all bodily injury, property damage, personal injury and other covered loss (however occasioned) occurring during the policy term, with at least the following endorsements to the extent such endorsements are generally available for businesses comparable to that of Tenant: (i) deleting any employee exclusion on personal injury coverage, (ii) providing broad form property damage coverage and products completed operations coverage (where applicable), and (iii) providing host liquor liability coverage. Such insurance shall name Landlord and any other party designated by Landlord as an additional insured, shall specifically include the liability assumed hereunder by Tenant, shall provide that it is primary insurance, shall provide for severability of interests, shall further provide that an act or omission of one of the named insureds which would void or otherwise reduce coverage shall not reduce or void the coverage as to any additional insured, shall afford coverage for claims based on acts, omissions, injury or damage which occurred or arose (or the onset of which occurred or arose in whole or in part during the policy period), and shall provide that Landlord will receive fifteen (15) days’ written notice from the insurer prior to any cancellation or material change of coverage;

(b) commercial property insurance, including sprinkler leakages, vandalism and malicious mischief and plate glass damage covering all the items specified as Tenant’s Property and all other property of every description including stock-in-trade, furniture, fittings, installations, alterations, additions, partitions and fixtures or anything in the nature of a leasehold improvement made or installed by or on behalf of the Tenant in the Premises in an amount of not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost thereof as shall from time to time be determined by Tenant in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord;

(c) Worker’s Compensation Insurance in the amounts and coverages required under worker’s compensation, disability and similar employee benefit laws applicable to Tenant and/or the Premises from time to time, and Employer’s Liability Insurance, with limits of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000), or such higher amounts as may be required by law, which insurance may be carried by Tenant’s payroll provider;

(d) business interruption insurance with extra expense insurance in an amount of $500,000 during any interruption of Tenant’s business by reason of the Premises or Tenant’s Property being damaged by casualty; and

 

27


(e) any other form or forms of insurance as Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in amounts and for insurable risks against which a prudent tenant similarly situated to Tenant would protect itself to the extent landlords of comparable buildings in the vicinity of the in the Property require their tenants to carry such other form(s) of insurance.

13.3 Policies. All policies of insurance required of Tenant shall be issued by insurance companies with general policyholders’ rating of not less than A, as rated in the most current available “Best’s Insurance Reports,” and not prohibited from doing business in the State of California, and shall, with the exception of Workers Compensation Insurance and business interruption insurance, include as additional insureds Landlord, and such other persons or entities as Landlord specifies from time to time. Such policies, with the exception of Worker’s Compensation Insurance and business interruption insurance, shall be for the mutual and joint benefit and protection of Landlord, Tenant and others specified by Landlord. Executed copies of Tenant’s policies of insurance or certificates thereof shall be delivered to Landlord prior to or upon delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant and thereafter within twenty (20) days prior to the expiration of the term of each such policy. All commercial general liability and property damage policies shall contain a provision that Landlord and any other additional insured, although named as additional insureds, shall nevertheless be entitled to recover under said policies for a covered loss occasioned by it, its servants, agents and employees, by reason of Tenant’s negligence. As often as any policy shall expire or terminate, renewal or additional policies shall be procured and maintained by Tenant in like manner and to like extent. All such policies of insurance shall provide that the company writing said policy will give to Landlord fifteen (15) days notice in writing in advance of any cancellation or lapse or of the effective date of any reduction in the amounts of insurance. All commercial general liability, property damage and other casualty policies shall be written on an occurrence basis. Landlord’s coverage shall not be contributory. No policy shall have a deductible in excess of $50,000 for any one occurrence.

13.4 Landlord’s Rights. Should Tenant fail to take out and keep in force each insurance policy required under this Article 13, or should such insurance not be approved by Landlord and should the Tenant not rectify the situation within two (2) business days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right, without assuming any obligation in connection therewith, to purchase such insurance at the sole cost of Tenant, and all costs incurred by Landlord shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant within twenty (20) days after demand as Additional Rent and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease.

13.5 Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord shall maintain in effect, provided it is obtainable, a policy or policies of property insurance or self insurance covering loss or damage to the Property in the amount of at least one hundred percent (100%) of the insurable replacement cost thereof (except with respect to earthquake coverage), including fire and extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended perils (all risk) and, if Landlord elects in its sole discretion, earthquake coverage, and the cost thereof shall be included in Operating Expenses. Nothing herein shall require Landlord to carry any insurance with respect to risks or property required to be insured by Tenant under this Lease.

 

28


13.6 Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent permitted by their respective policies of insurance and to the extent of insurance proceeds received (or which would have been received had the party carried the insurance required by this Lease) with respect to the loss, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive any right of recovery against the other party and against any other party maintaining a policy of insurance with respect to the Property or any portion thereof or the contents of the Premises for any loss or damage sustained by such other party with respect to the Premises or the Property, or any portion thereof, or the contents of the same or any operation therein, whether or not such loss is caused by the fault or negligence of such other party. Either party shall promptly notify the other party if the policy of insurance carried by it does not permit the foregoing waiver.

13.7 No Liability. No approval by Landlord of any insurer, or the terms or conditions of any policy, or any coverage or amount of insurance, or any deductible amount shall be construed as a representation by Landlord of the solvency of the insurer or the sufficiency of any policy or any coverage or amount of insurance or deductible and Tenant assumes full risk and responsibility for any inadequacy of insurance coverage or any failure of insurers.

14. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

14.1 Consent Required. Tenant shall not directly or indirectly, voluntarily or by operation of law, sell, assign, encumber, pledge or otherwise transfer or hypothecate all or any part of its interest in or rights with respect to the Premises or its leasehold estate (collectively, “Assignment”), or permit all or any portion of the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than itself or sublet all or any portion of the Premises (collectively, “Sublease”) without Landlord’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (subject to Landlord’s rights as described in Section 14.5).

14.2 Notice. If Tenant desires to enter into a Sublease of all or any portion of the Premises or Assignment of this Lease that requires Landlord’s consent, it shall give written notice (the “Transfer Notice”) to Landlord of its intention to do so, which notice shall contain (a) the name and address of the proposed assignee, subtenant or occupant (the “Transferee”), (b) the nature of the proposed Transferee’s business to be carried on in the Premises, (c) the general terms and provisions of the proposed Assignment or Sublease, and (d) such financial information as Landlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed Transferee. Without limitation of any other provision hereof, it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent if (i) an Event of Default is then in existence, (ii) the use of the Premises would not comply with the provisions of this Lease, and (iii) in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the proposed Transferee in the case of an Assignment does not have the financial capability to perform its obligations under this Lease with respect to the Premises which are the subject of the Assignment or Sublease.

14.3 Terms of Approval. Landlord shall respond to Tenant’s request for approval within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Transfer Notice. If Landlord approves the proposed Assignment or Sublease, Tenant may, not later than ninety (90) days thereafter, enter into the Assignment or Sublease with the proposed Transferee upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Transfer Notice.

 

29


14.4 Excess Rent. For any Assignment or Sublease, except an Assignment or Sublease pursuant to Section 14.7, fifty percent (50%) of the Excess Rent received by Tenant shall be paid to Landlord as and when received by Tenant. “Excess Rent” means the gross revenue received from the Transferee during the Sublease term or with respect to the Assignment, less (a) the gross revenue paid to Landlord by Tenant during the period of the Sublease term or concurrently with or after the Assignment; (b) any tenant improvement allowance or other economic concession (planning allowance, moving expenses, etc.) that is reasonably documented and paid by Tenant to the Transferee, and the cost of tenant improvements made by Tenant for the Transferees in the subleased space; (c) customary and reasonable external brokers’ commissions to the extent paid and documented; (d) reasonable attorneys’ fees; (e) the actual cost of demising the subleased space, if applicable; (f) the unamortized cost of the Tenant Improvement Work calculated on a straight line basis over forty-eight (48) months, in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (or, in the case of a Sublease, the amount thereof proportionate to the term of the sublease and proportionate share of the Premises subject to such Sublease); and (g) reasonable costs of advertising the space for Sublease or Assignment (collectively, “Transfer Costs”). Tenant shall not have to pay to Landlord any Excess Rent until Tenant has recovered all of its Transfer Costs. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Rent to Landlord for any Sublease(s) of up to an aggregate of fifty (50%) of the Premises during the first two (2) years of the Term.

14.5 Right of First Refusal. If Tenant desires to assign Tenant’s interest in the Premises or to sublease one hundred percent (100%) of the Premises for more than three (3) years or for the balance of the Term (collectively, a “Transfer”), Tenant’s Transfer Notice shall also include a written offer that includes all of the substantial business terms that Tenant has offered to a Transferee which Tenant would execute if Landlord does not accept Tenant’s offer (the “Offer”), and shall offer to Transfer Tenant’s interest in the Premises to Landlord on such terms and conditions. Landlord shall have fifteen (15) days from Landlord’s receipt of the Offer to accept the Offer by written notice to Tenant or to approve or disapprove the Transfer as provided in Section 14.3. If Landlord accepts the Offer, Landlord and Tenant shall consummate the Transfer within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s written notice of acceptance or such later date as set forth in the Offer. The Transfer shall be consummated by Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of a good and sufficient assignment of lease, lease termination or sublease and Tenant shall be released from liability arising out of or relating to events occurring after the effective date of the Transfer and arising out of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease as to the portion of the Premises subject to the Transfer. If Landlord does not accept the Offer, but approves the Transfer, then in the event the economic terms of the Transfer are materially changed during subsequent negotiations to be more favorable to the Transferee, Tenant shall again deliver to Landlord an Offer in accordance with this Section, offering the interest to Landlord on such more favorable terms. Landlord shall then have another period of five (5) business days after receipt of such Offer to accept such Offer. For purposes of this Section 14.5, “materially changed” shall mean that the economic benefit to Tenant as stated in the Offer shall have been reduced by ten percent (10%) or more.

14.6 No Release. No Sublease or Assignment by Tenant nor any consent by Landlord thereto shall relieve Tenant of any obligation to be performed by Tenant under this Lease. Any Sublease or Assignment that is not in compliance with this Article shall be null and

 

30


void and, at the option of Landlord, shall constitute an Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease, and Landlord shall be entitled to pursue any right or remedy available to Landlord under the terms of this Lease or under the laws of the State of California. The acceptance of any Rent or other payments by Landlord from a proposed Transferee shall not constitute consent to such Sublease or Assignment by Landlord or a recognition of any Transferee, or a waiver by Landlord of any failure of Tenant or other Transferor to comply with this Article.

14.7 Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord’s consent shall not be required for an Assignment or Sublease to (a) a subsidiary or affiliate of Tenant, or (b) a successor-in-interest that acquires Tenant through a merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all of the assets of Tenant; provided that Tenant notifies Landlord of such Assignment or Sublease within thirty (30) days after such Assignment or Sublease.

14.8 Assumption of Obligations. Any Transferee taking an Assignment of this Lease, from and after the effective date of the Assignment, assume all obligations of Tenant under this Lease and shall be and remain liable jointly and severally with Tenant for the payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent, and for the performance of all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant’s part to be performed for the Term. No Assignment shall be binding on Landlord unless Tenant delivers to Landlord a counterpart of the Assignment and an instrument that contains a covenant of assumption reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to Landlord, and consistent with the requirements of this Section.

15. DEFAULT

15.1 Event of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall be an “Event of Default” on the part of Tenant:

(a) Failure to pay any part of the Base Rent or Additional Rent, or any other sums of money that Tenant is required to pay under this Lease, where such failure continues for a period of five (5) business days after written notice of default from Landlord to Tenant. Landlord’s notice to Tenant pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed to be the notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161.

(b) Failure to perform any other covenant, condition or requirement of this Lease when such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that if the nature of the default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then an Event of Default shall not be deemed to have occurred if Tenant shall commence such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and continuously prosecute such cure to completion. Landlord’s notice to Tenant pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed to be the notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161.

(c) The abandonment or vacating of the Premises by Tenant.

(d) Tenant shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, dissolution or

 

31


liquidation under any law or statute of any government or any subdivision thereof either now or hereafter in effect, or Tenant shall make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of a receiver of itself or of the whole or any substantial part of the Premises.

(e) A court of competent jurisdiction shall enter an order, judgment or decree appointing a receiver of Tenant or of the whole or any substantial part of the Premises and such order, judgment or decree shall not be vacated, set aside or stayed within sixty (60) days after the date of entry of such order, judgment, or decree, or a stay thereof shall be thereafter set aside.

(f) A court of competent jurisdiction shall enter an order, judgment or decree approving a petition filed against Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation law or statute of the federal or state government or any subdivision of either now or hereafter in effect, and such order, judgment or decree shall not be vacated, set aside or stayed within sixty (60) days from the date of entry of such order, judgment or decree, or a stay thereof shall be thereafter set aside.

15.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies:

(a) The right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Tenant, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises in accordance with Article 20.

(b) The right to bring a summary action for possession of the Premises.

(c) The rights and remedies described in California Civil Code Section 1951.2, including without limitation the right to recover from Tenant all Rent due through the date this Lease terminates (with interest at the Interest Rate until paid), plus the present worth of the Rent payable hereunder for the balance of the Term, plus any amount necessary to compensate Landlord for the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom which includes, without limitation, (i) the unamortized portion of any brokerage or real estate agent’s commissions paid in connection with the execution of this Lease, (ii) any direct costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in recovering possession of the Premises, maintaining or preserving the Premises after such default, (iii) preparing the Premises for reletting to a new tenant, (iv) any repairs or alterations to the Premises for such reletting, (v) leasing commissions, architect’s fees and any other costs necessary or appropriate either to relet the Premises or, if reasonably necessary in order to relet the Premises, to adapt them to another beneficial use by Landlord and (vi) such amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by Applicable Law to the extent that such payment would not result in a duplicative recovery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord enters into a replacement lease for a term longer than the Initial Term or the then Current Renewal Term, as applicable, then the amounts payable under clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) will be proportionately reduced.

 

32


(d) The rights and remedies described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 which allow Landlord to continue this Lease in effect and to enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges payable hereunder as they become due. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon Landlord’s initiative to protect its interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession.

(e) The right and power, as attorney-in-fact for Tenant, to sublet the Premises, to collect rents from all subtenants and to provide or arrange for the provision of all services and fulfill all obligations of Tenant under any permitted subleases. Landlord is hereby authorized on behalf of Tenant, but shall have absolutely no obligation, to provide such services and fulfill such obligations and to incur all such expenses and costs as Landlord deems necessary. Landlord is hereby authorized, but not obligated, to relet the Premises or any part thereof on behalf of Tenant, to incur such expenses as may be necessary to effect a relet and make said relet for such term or terms, upon such conditions and at such rental as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem proper. Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs and expenses Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises including, without limitation, brokers’ commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises required by the reletting, and the cost of collecting rents and fulfilling the obligations of Tenant to any subtenant. If Landlord relets the Premises or any portion thereof, such reletting shall not relieve Tenant of any obligation hereunder, except that Landlord shall apply the rent or other proceeds actually collected by it as a result of such reletting against any amounts due from Tenant hereunder to the extent that such rent or other proceeds compensate Landlord for the nonperformance of any obligation of Tenant hereunder. Such payments by Tenant shall be due at such times as are provided elsewhere in this Lease, and Landlord need not wait until the termination of this Lease, by expiration of the Term or otherwise, to recover them by legal action or in any other manner. Landlord may execute any sublease made pursuant to this Section in its own name, and the tenant thereunder shall be under no obligation to see to the application by Landlord of any rent or other proceeds, nor shall Tenant have any right to collect any such rent or other proceeds. Landlord shall not by any reentry or other act be deemed to have accepted any surrender by Tenant of the Premises or Tenant’s interest therein, or be deemed to have otherwise terminated this Lease, or to have relieved Tenant of any obligation hereunder, unless Landlord shall have given Tenant express written notice of Landlord’s election to do so as set forth herein.

(f) The right to enjoin, and any other remedy or right now or hereafter available to a Landlord against a defaulting tenant under the laws of the State of California or the equitable powers of its courts, and not otherwise specifically reserved herein.

15.3 Cumulative Remedies. The various rights and remedies reserved to Landlord, including those not specifically described herein, shall, to the extent that the exercise of such right and/or remedy does not result in a duplicative recovery, be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity and the exercise of the rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Landlord of any or all other rights and remedies.

 

33


15.4 Waiver of Redemption by Tenant. Tenant hereby waives any right to relief against forfeiture of this Lease pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1179.

15.5 Landlord’s Right to Cure. If Tenant shall fail or neglect to do or perform any covenant or condition required under this Lease and such failure shall not be cured within any applicable grace period after written notice by Landlord to Tenant, Landlord may, on five (5) additional days notice to Tenant, but shall not be required to, make any payment payable by Tenant hereunder, discharge any lien, take out, pay for and maintain any insurance required hereunder, or do or perform or cause to be done or performed any such other act or thing (entering upon the Premises for such purposes, if Landlord shall so elect), and Landlord shall not be or be held liable or in any way responsible for any loss, disturbance, inconvenience, annoyance or damage resulting to Tenant on account thereof. Tenant shall repay to Landlord within twenty (20) days after demand the entire out-of-pocket cost and expense reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with the cure, including, without limitation, compensation to the agents, consultants and contractors of Landlord and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. Landlord may act upon shorter notice or no notice at all if necessary in Landlord’s reasonable judgment to meet an emergency situation or governmental or municipal time limitation or to protect Landlord’s interest in the Premises. Landlord shall not be required to inquire into the correctness of the amount of validity or any tax or lien that may be paid by Landlord and Landlord shall be duly protected in paying the amount of any such tax or lien claimed and in such event Landlord also shall have the full authority, in Landlord’s sole judgment and discretion and without prior notice to or approval by Tenant, to settle or compromise any such lien or tax. Any act or thing done by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall not be or be construed as a waiver of any such failure by Tenant, or as a waiver of any term, covenant, agreement or condition herein contained or of the performance thereof.

15.6 Landlord’s Default. Landlord shall be in default under this Lease if Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have heretofore been furnished to Tenant in writing, specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligations is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. Tenant shall be entitled to actual (but not consequential) damages in the event of an uncured default by Landlord, but the provisions of Article 17 shall apply to any Landlord default and Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease as a result of a Landlord default.

16. LANDLORD’S RESERVED RIGHTS

16.1 Control of Exterior Area. Landlord reserves the right, at any time and from time to time, to make alterations, additions, repairs, replacements or improvements to all or any part of the Premises that are Landlord’s responsibility under the terms of this Lease (including the Building Structure and Building Systems), the Exterior Area and the Property pursuant to its rights and obligations set forth in this Lease. Landlord may make changes at any

 

34


time and from time to time in the size, shape, location, use and extent of the Exterior Area, and no such change shall entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent or damages; provided that Landlord shall not materially adversely affect Tenant’s use of or access to the Property. Landlord may at any time and from time to time during the Term restrain any use or occupancy of the Exterior Area or temporarily close any portion of the Exterior Area for repairs, maintenance, replacements or alterations, to prevent a dedication or the accrual of prescriptive rights, or for any other reasonable purpose; provided, however, that Landlord shall not materially adversely affect Tenant’s use of or access to the Property. Tenant’s rights in and to the Exterior Area shall at all times be subject to the rights of Landlord and Tenant shall keep the Exterior Area free and clear of any obstructions created or permitted by Tenant or resulting from Tenant’s operations.

16.2 Access. Landlord reserves (for itself and its agents, consultants, contractors and employees) the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times and, except in cases of emergency, after giving Tenant reasonable notice, to inspect the Premises (including, without limitation, invasive environmental testing and as set forth in Section 12.7); to supply any service to be provided by Landlord hereunder; to show the Premises to prospective purchasers or mortgages; to show the Premises to prospective tenants during the last six (6) months of the Term; to post notices of nonresponsibility; and to repair or maintain the Premises as required by Section 7.1, without abatement of Rent, and may for that purpose erect, use and maintain necessary structures in and through the Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, but all in a manner so as to minimize disruption and interference with Tenants’ business. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises or any other loss occasioned thereby. All locks for all of the doors in, upon and about the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes or special security areas (designated in advance in writing by Tenant) shall at all times be keyed to a master system and Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of said doors. Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means that Landlord may deem necessary or proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to any portion of the Premises, and any such entry to the Premises or portions thereof obtained by Landlord by any of said means, or otherwise, shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Landlord’s access to laboratories in the Premises shall be in accordance with all laws and regulations relating to Tenant’s pharmaceutical business, (b) Landlord shall abide by Tenant’s reasonable safety procedures, and (c) Tenant shall have the right to temporarily restrict or delay Landlord’s access to laboratories in the Premises for a reasonable amount time as necessary to not materially interfere with Tenant’s research activities in such areas.

16.3 Easements. Landlord reserves the right to grant or relocate all easements and rights of way which Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem necessary or appropriate; provided that Tenant’s right to use and have access to the Property is not materially impeded.

16.4 Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to: (a) all covenants, conditions and restrictions, and any ground leases or underlying leases which may now exist or hereafter be executed affecting the Property (and Landlord hereby

 

35


represents that as of the date hereof, none exist), and (b) the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust which may now exist (and Landlord hereby represents that as of the date hereof, none exist) or hereafter be executed in any amount for which the Property, or any ground leases or underlying leases, or Landlord’s interest or estate in any of said items, is specified as security, so long as any such document executed after the Effective Date does not otherwise purport to diminish Tenant’s rights hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated to this Lease any of the items referred to in clause (a) or (b) above, subject to compliance with the condition precedent set forth below. In the event that any ground lease or underlying lease terminates for any reason or any mortgage or deed of trust is foreclosed or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason, (i) no person or entity which as a result of the foregoing succeeds to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, (a “Successor”) shall be liable for any default by Landlord or any other matter that occurred prior to the date the Successor succeeded to Landlord’s interest in this Lease, and (ii) Tenant shall, notwithstanding any subordination, attorn to and become the tenant of the Successor, at the option of the Successor. Tenant covenants and agrees, however, to execute and deliver, upon demand by Landlord and in the form reasonably requested by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease with respect to any such ground leases, underlying leases, reciprocal easement agreements or similar documents or instruments, or with respect to the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust and Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver any such document within ten (10) business days after such demand by Landlord shall constitute an Event of Default without further notice. As a condition to any such subordination by Landlord, Landlord shall obtain the written agreement of the mortgagee or trustee named in any mortgage, deed of trust or other encumbrance, and any landlord under any ground lease or underlying lease, that so long as an Event of Default by Tenant is not in existence, neither this Lease nor any of Tenant’s rights hereunder shall be terminated or modified, nor shall Tenant’s possession of the Premises be disturbed or interfered with, by any trustee’s sale or by an action or proceeding to foreclose said mortgage, deed of trust or other encumbrance.

17. LIMITATION OF LANDLORD’S LIABILITY

17.1 Limitation. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not be responsible for or liable to Tenant and Tenant hereby releases Landlord, waives all claims against Landlord and assumes the risk for any injury, loss or damage to any person or property in or about the Premises, or the Property by or from any cause whatsoever (other than Landlord’s active negligence, willful misconduct or breach of its obligations under this Lease) including, without limitation, (a) acts or omissions of persons occupying adjoining premises, (b) theft or vandalism, (c) burst, stopped or leaking water, gas, sewer or steam pipes, (d) loss of utility service, (e) accident, fire or casualty, (f) nuisance, and (g) work done by Landlord in the Premises or the Exterior Area. There shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant’s business arising from the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements to any portion of the Premises or to fixtures, appurtenances and equipment in the Premises; provided, however, that in the event Landlord’s repair, alterations or improvements are performed in a negligent manner which results in Tenant being unable to operate its business in all or any portion of the Premises for a period of more than three (3) days, then Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Rent commencing on the fourth (4th) day Tenant is unable to operate and continuing until the Premises are again available for operation of Tenant’s business. Such Rent abatement shall be Tenant’s

 

36


only remedy in the event of a negligent interference with Tenant’s business and Tenant shall not be entitled to damages or to termination of this Lease arising from Landlord’s repairs, alterations or improvements. No interference with Tenant’s operations in the Premises shall constitute a constructive or other eviction if Tenant. Tenant hereby waives and releases any right it may have to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code, or under any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

17.2 Sale of Property. It is agreed that Landlord may at any time sell, assign or transfer its interest as landlord in and to this Lease, and may at any time sell, assign or transfer its interest in and to the Property. In the event of any transfer of Landlord’s interest in this Lease or in the Property, the transferor shall be automatically relieved of any and all of Landlord’s obligations and liabilities accruing from and after the date of such transfer; provided that the transferee assumes all of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease and delivers a copy of such assumption to Tenant. Tenant hereby agrees to attorn to Landlord’s assignee, transferee, or purchaser from and after the date of notice to Tenant of such assignment, transfer or sale, in the same manner and with the same force and effect as though this Lease were made in the first instance by and between Tenant and the assignee, transferee or purchaser.

17.3 No Personal Liability. In the event of any default by Landlord hereunder, Tenant shall look only to Landlord’s interest in the Property and rents therefrom and any available insurance or condemnation proceeds for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies, and no other property or assets of Landlord or any trustee, partner, member, officer or director thereof, disclosed or undisclosed, shall be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies under or with respect to this Lease.

18. DESTRUCTION

18.1 Landlord’s Repair Obligation. If the Property or any portion thereof are damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall repair the same (including any Tenant Improvement Work but not Tenant’s Alterations); provided that (a) such repairs can be made under the laws and regulations of the federal, state and local governmental authorities having jurisdiction within six (6) months after the date of such damage (or in the case of damage occurring during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, provided that such repairs can be made within ninety (90) days after the date of such damage), (b) such repairs are fully covered (except for any deductible and a deficiency of insurance proceeds of up to 5% of the full insured value of the Premises) by the proceeds of insurance maintained by Landlord, (c) the estimated cost to repair does not exceed 50% of the full insured value of the Premises, and (d) with regard to Landlord’s obligation to repair the Tenant Improvement Work, the Tenant Improvement Work is permanently affixed to the Premises such that it has become a part of the Premises (and is not deemed a trade fixture) and therefore is covered by Landlord’s real property insurance. If Landlord has elected to partially or fully self-insure as permitted by Section 13.5, the limitations of clause (b) above shall not apply unless such self-insurance maintained by Landlord is part of its funded program of self-insurance that provides coverage comparable to commercial third-party insurance.

18.2 Notice. Landlord shall notify Tenant within forty-five (45) days after the date of damage whether or not Landlord will repair and reconstruct the Property, and the

 

37


estimated time of completion. If the requirements set forth in Section 18.1 are not met, Landlord shall have the option, exercisable within forty-five (45) days after the date of such damage either to: (a) notify Tenant of Landlord’s intention to repair such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect (unless terminated by Tenant pursuant to Section 18.3 below), or (b) notify Tenant of Landlord’s election to terminate this Lease as of the date of the damage. If such notice to terminate is given by Landlord, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such damage.

18.3 Termination by Tenant. If Landlord elects to repair or is required to repair the damage and any such repair is not commenced by Landlord within one-hundred twenty (120) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction or is not or cannot practicably be substantially completed by Landlord within six (6) months after the occurrence of such damage or destruction (or in the case of damage occurring in the last twelve (12) months of the Term, within ninety (90) days), then in either such event Tenant may, at its option, upon written notice to Landlord to be delivered within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice or the expiration of the 120-day commencement period, elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage or destruction.

18.4 Rent Adjustment. In case of termination pursuant to Sections 18.2 or 18.3 above, the Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be reduced by a proportionate amount based upon the extent to which such damage interfered with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises, and Tenant shall pay such reduced Base Rent and Operating Expenses up to the date of vacation of the Premises. If Landlord is required or elects to make repairs, and Tenant does not terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 18.3, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of Base Rent and Operating Expenses from the date of such casualty and during the period such repairs are being made by a proportionate amount based upon the extent of interference with Tenant’s operations in the Premises. The full amount of Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall again become payable immediately upon the completion of such work of repair, reconstruction or restoration and return of the Premises to Tenant with all required permits and approvals for occupancy by Tenant. The repairs to be made by Landlord under this Article shall not include, and Landlord shall not be required to repair, any casualty damage to the Tenant’s Property or any Alterations.

18.5 Tenant Obligations. If Landlord elects or is required to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises after any damage or destruction and Tenant does not elect to terminate the Lease pursuant to Section 18.3, Tenant shall be responsible at its own expense for the repair and replacement of the Tenant’s Property and any Alterations which Tenant elects to replace. If the Lease is terminated, Tenant is relieved of all of its obligations under Article 20 hereof, except with respect to the removal of Hazardous Materials which are the responsibility of Tenant pursuant to Article 12.

18.6 No Claim. Tenant shall have no interest in or claim to any portion of the proceeds of any property insurance or self-insurance maintained by Landlord in connection with the damage. If Landlord is entitled and elects not to rebuild the Premises, Landlord shall relinquish to Tenant such claim as Landlord may have for any part of the proceeds of any insurance maintained by Tenant under Section 13.2 of this Lease.

 

38


18.7 No Damages. Subject to the rent abatement provisions set forth in Section 18.4, if Landlord is required or elects to make any repairs, reconstruction or restoration of any damage or destruction to the Premises under any of the provisions of this Article 18, Tenant shall not be entitled to any damages by reason of any inconvenience or loss sustained by Tenant as a result thereof. Except as expressly provided in Section 18.4, there shall be no reduction, change or abatement of any rental or other charge payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, or in the method of computing, accounting for or paying the same. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1932(2) and Section 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, or any other statute or law that may be in effect at the time of a casualty under which a lease is automatically terminated or a tenant is given the right to terminate a lease due to a casualty.

19. EMINENT DOMAIN

19.1 Taking. If all or any part of the Premises shall be taken as a result of the exercise of the power of eminent domain or any transfer in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date of taking or as of the date of final judgment, whichever is earlier, and, in the case of a partial taking of any of the Premises, either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as to the balance of the Premises by written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after such date, provided, however, that a condition to the exercise by Tenant of such right to terminate shall be that the portion of the Premises taken shall be of such extent and nature as substantially to handicap, impede or impair Tenant’s use of the balance of the Premises or shall render the balance of the Premises insufficient for the conduct of all or part of Tenant’s business formerly conducted on the Premises. If any material part of the Exterior Area shall be taken as a result of the exercise of the power of eminent domain or any transfer in lieu thereof, such that Tenant’s access to, parking for or use of the Premises is materially adversely affected, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days of the date of taking.

19.2 Award. In the event of any taking, Landlord shall be entitled to any and all compensation, damages, income, rent, awards, or any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection therewith, and Tenant shall assign to Landlord any right to compensation or damages for the condemnation of its leasehold interest; provided that Tenant may file a claim for (a) Tenant’s relocation expenses, goodwill and business interruption and (b) the taking of Tenant’s Property.

19.3 Partial Taking. In the event of a partial taking of the Premises or the Property which does not result in a termination of this Lease, the Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be adjusted as follows:

(a) In the event of a partial taking, if this Lease is not terminated pursuant to this Article 19, Landlord shall repair, restore or reconstruct the Premises and the Property to a useable state; provided that Landlord shall not be required to expend any sums other than those received pursuant to Section 19.2. If Landlord does not repair, restore or reconstruct the Premises or the Property due to the insufficiency of the award received pursuant to Section 19.2, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord;

 

39


(b) During the period between the date of the partial taking and the completion of any necessary repairs, reconstruction or restoration, Tenant shall be entitled to a reduction of Base Rent and Operating Expenses by a proportionate amount based upon the extent of interference with Tenant’s operations in the Premises and on the Property; and

(c) Upon completion of said repairs, reconstruction or restoration, and thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term, the Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be equitably adjusted to reflect the extent to which such taking adversely affected Tenant’s use of the Premises and the Property.

19.4 Temporary Taking. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, if a taking occurs with respect to all or any portion of the Premises for a period of six (6) months or less, this Lease shall remain unaffected thereby and Tenant shall continue to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent and to perform all of the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease, provided that Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease if the taking continues beyond six (6) months. In the event of any such temporary taking, and if this Lease is not terminated, Tenant shall be entitled to receive that portion of any award which represents compensation for the use or occupancy of the Premises during the Term.

19.5 Sale in Lieu of Condemnation. A voluntary sale by Landlord of all or any part of the Property to any public or quasi-public body, agency or person, corporate or otherwise, having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be deemed to be a taking under the power of eminent domain for the purposes of this Article.

19.6 Waiver. Except as provided in this Article, Tenant hereby waives and releases any right it may have under any Applicable Law to terminate this Lease as a result of a taking, including without limitation Sections 1265.120 and 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

20. SURRENDER

20.1 Surrender. Upon the Termination Date, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in good order and repair, reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty, and any maintenance and repairs that Landlord is obligated to perform excepted, free and clear of all letting and occupancies and free of any Hazardous Materials that Tenant is required to remove pursuant to Article 12. Subject to Article 9, upon any termination of this Lease all improvements, except for Tenant’s Property, shall automatically and without further act by Landlord or Tenant, become the property of Landlord, free and clear of any claim or interest therein by Tenant, and without payment therefore by Landlord.

20.2 Holding Over. Any holding over after the expiration of the Term with the consent of Landlord shall be construed to automatically extend the Term on a month-to-month basis at a Base Rent equal to 125% of the prevailing rate at which Landlord is then leasing space in buildings reasonably determined by Landlord to be comparable to the Premises, and shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions of this Lease to the extent applicable. Any holding over without Landlord’s consent shall entitle Landlord to exercise any or all of its remedies provided in Article 15, notwithstanding that Landlord may elect to accept one or more payments of Base Rent and Operating Expenses from Tenant.

 

40


20.3 Quitclaim. At the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord, within ten (10) days after written demand from Landlord to Tenant, any quitclaim deed or other document required by any reputable title company, licensed to operate in the State of California, to remove the cloud or encumbrance created by this Lease from the Property.

21. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Subject to any limitations imposed by Applicable Law, Tenant shall tender to Landlord within ten (10) business days after receipt of written request Tenant’s financial statements provided to its Board of Directors for the last two (2) years, along with any background information and support documentation maintained by Tenant in the ordinary course of business and reasonably requested by Landlord to clarify Tenant’s financial statements. Landlord shall be entitled to rely upon the information provided in determining whether or not to enter into this Lease or for the purpose of any financing or other transaction subsequently undertaken by Landlord. Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that all financial statements provided by Tenant to Landlord will be true, correct and accurate. Landlord shall keep all such information delivered by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Article 21 confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to disclose such information to its employees and agents and to any ground lessee, potential ground lessee, lender or potential lender, provided that Landlord shall cause any such third party to keep the information confidential. The foregoing obligation shall not apply to information that (a) was in the possession of, or was known by, Landlord prior to its receipt from Tenant without a duty to keep confidential, (b) is or becomes generally known to the public without violation of Landlord’s obligations under this Article, or (c) Landlord is required by Applicable Law to disclose.

22. TENANT CERTIFICATES

Tenant, at any time and from time to time within ten (10) business days after receipt of written notice from Landlord, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord or to any potential purchaser, lender, auditor or any other party with an interest or potential interest in the Premises designated by Landlord, a certificate of Tenant stating, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge: (a) that Tenant has accepted the Premises, (b) the Commencement Date, the Rent Commencement Date and Expiration Date of this Lease, (c) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), (d) whether or not there are then existing any defenses against the enforcement of any of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease (and, if so, specifying same), (e) whether or not there are then existing any defaults by Landlord in the performance of its obligations under this Lease (and, if so, specifying same), (f) the dates, if any, to which the Base Rent and Operating Expenses have been paid, and (g) any other factual information relating to the rights and obligations under this Lease that may reasonably be required by any of such persons. Failure to deliver such certificate when due shall constitute an Event of Default. At the request of Tenant, Landlord shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Tenant a certificate with similar types of information and in the time period set forth above.

 

41


Failure by either Landlord or Tenant to execute, acknowledge and deliver such certificate shall be conclusive evidence that this Lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified except as may be represented by the requesting party. Delivery of such a certificate by Tenant shall not constitute a waiver of any known default of Landlord as to Landlord, but not as to any other party receiving the estoppel.

23. SIGNS

Without Landlord’s written consent, which may be given or withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, Tenant shall not place or permit to be placed on the front of the Premises any sign, picture, advertisement, name, notice, marquee or awning; provided that (a) upon Landlord’s reasonable approval, Tenant shall have the right to place a sign on or adjacent to the entrance doors to Tenant’s Premises identifying Tenant, and (b) with Landlord’s approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the approval of the City of Palo Alto, Tenant shall have the right to place a sign on the existing monument sign or signs in the front of the landscaping area.

24. INABILITY TO PERFORM

Subject to the other provisions of this Lease (including those provisions relating to damage and destruction and abatement of rent), if Landlord is unable to fulfill or is delayed in fulfilling any of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, by reason of acts of God, accidents, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts, other labor disputes, inability to obtain utilities or materials or by any other reason beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, then no such inability or delay by Landlord shall constitute an actual or constructive eviction, in whole or in part, or entitle Tenant to any abatement or diminution of Base Rent or Additional Rent, or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease, or impose any liability upon Landlord or Landlord’s Indemnitees by reason of inconvenience, annoyance, interruption, injury or loss to or interference with Tenant’s business or use and occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises or any loss or damage occasioned thereby. If Tenant is unable to fulfill or is delayed in fulfilling any of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease (other than the payment of Rent), by reason of acts of God, accidents, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts, other labor disputes, inability to obtain utilities or materials or by any other reason beyond Tenant’s reasonable control, then such inability or delay by Tenant shall excuse the performance of Tenant for a period equal to the duration of such prevention, delay or stoppage. Tenant hereby waives and releases any right to terminate this Lease under Section 1932(1) of the California Civil Code, or any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

26. QUIET ENJOYMENT

Landlord covenants that so long as an Event of Default by Tenant is not in existence, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly enjoy the Premises, subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease.

27. AUTHORITY

If Tenant is a corporation or a partnership, Tenant represents and warrants as follows: Tenant is an entity as identified in Article 1, duly formed and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of organization specified in Article 1 and qualified to do business in the State of California. Tenant has the power, legal capacity and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Lease and no approval or consent of any person is required in connection with the execution and performance hereof. The execution and performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease will not result in or constitute any default or event that would be, or with notice or the lapse of time would be, a default, breach or violation of the organizational instruments governing Tenant or any agreement or any order or decree of any court or other governmental authority to which Tenant is a party or to which it is subject. Tenant has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease and this Lease constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Tenant.

DETERMINATION OF PREVAILING MARKET RENT

The term “Prevailing Market Rent” means the base monthly rent per rentable square foot (net of all expenses) for space of comparable size and location to the Premises and in buildings similar in age and quality to the Premises, taking into account any additional rent and all other payments or escalations then being charged and allowances and economic concessions being given in the Stanford Research Park for such comparable space over (but without regard to Tenant Improvements made by Tenant) a comparable term. The Prevailing Market Rent shall be determined by Landlord and Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of such determination not later than thirty (30) days after delivery by Tenant of Tenant’s notice of exercise of the Renewal Option. If Tenant disputes Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Market Rent, Tenant shall so notify Landlord within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s notice to Tenant of Landlord’s determination and, in such case, the Prevailing Market Rent shall be determined as follows:

(a) Within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s notice to Landlord that it disputes Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Market Rent, Landlord and Tenant shall meet no less than two (2) times, at a mutually agreeable time and place, to attempt to agree upon the Prevailing Market Rent.

(b) If within this 30-day period Landlord and Tenant cannot reach agreement as to the Prevailing Market Rent, and upon written notice from either party they shall each select one appraiser to determine the Prevailing Market Rent. Each such appraiser shall arrive at a determination of the Prevailing Market Rent and submit his or her conclusions to Landlord and Tenant within thirty (30) days after such notice.

(c) If only one appraisal is submitted within the requisite time period, it shall be deemed to be the Prevailing Market Rent. If both appraisals are submitted within such time period, and if the two appraisals so submitted differ by less than five (5) percent of the higher of the two, the average of the two shall be the Prevailing Market Rent. If the two appraisals differ by more than five (5) percent of the higher of the two, then the two appraisers shall immediately select a third appraiser who will within thirty (30) days of his or her selection make a determination of the Prevailing Market Rent and submit such determination to Landlord and Tenant. This third appraisal will then be averaged with the closer of the two previous appraisals and the result shall be the Prevailing Market Rent.

(d) All appraisers specified pursuant hereto shall be members of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers with not less than five (5) years experience appraising office, research and development and industrial properties in Northern California. Each party shall pay the cost of the appraiser selected by such party and one-half of the cost of the third appraiser plus one-half of any other costs incurred in the third appraiser’s determination.

Access Agreement for Monitoring Wells, Groundwater Extraction Wells, a Conveyance Pipeline, and Water Treatment Plant at 3176 Porter Drive, 3180 Porter Drive, 3210 Porter Drive and 3277 Miranda Avenue, Palo Alto, California

This Access Agreement for Monitoring Wells, Groundwater Extraction Wells, a Conveyance Pipeline, and Water Treatment Plant at 3176 Porter Drive, 3180 Porter Drive, 3210 Porter Drive and 3277 Miranda Avenue, Palo Alto, California (the “ACCESS AGREEMENT”) is entered into by the Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University (“STANFORD”), a body having corporate powers under the laws of the State of California, and Loral/Librascope Corporation (“LORAL/LIBRASCOPE”), a Delaware corporation. The above-identified entities are sometimes referred to below as “party” or designated collectively as “parties.”

RECITALS

This ACCESS AGREEMENT is entered into on the basis of the following facts, understandings and intentions of the parties:

1. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE, formerly the Librascope Division of The Singer Company, and STANFORD, among others, are each named as a Respondent in Order No. HSA 86/87-012EO, as amended in 1991 (“ORDER”), issued by the State of California - Environmental Protection Agency Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”), with respect to the property located at 3176 Porter Drive, Palo Alto, California (the “SITE”).


2. Pursuant to the ORDER, a Remedial Investigation/ Feasibility Study was conducted for the SITE, which has been submitted and approved by DTSC. The ORDER further requires that a Remedial Action Plan (“RAP”) for the SITE be submitted and approved by the DTSC. In June 1992, LORAL/LIBRASCOPE submitted a preliminary draft RAP pursuant to the ORDER. Once approved by DTSC following public hearing and comment, the draft RAP will be adopted as the final RAP pursuant to Section 25356.1 of the California Health and Safety Code.

3. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE has requested STANFORD’s permission to enter 3176 Porter Drive, 3180 Porter Drive, 3210 Porter Drive and 3277 Miranda Avenue (collectively “the PROPERTIES”) to continue activities necessary to the implementation of the remedy required by DTSC in the RAP, including, but not limited to, the construction, operation, maintenance, inspection, monitoring and removal of the groundwater monitoring and extraction wells, an underground conveyance pipeline, and groundwater treatment facilities shown on the attached drawing (“the REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES”). The conveyance pipeline shall provide double containment between the extraction wells and groundwater treatment facilities located at the SITE (as shown on the attached drawing).

 

- 2 -


4. Effective July 31 1992, STANFORD and LORAL/LIBRASCOPE entered into a Settlement Agreement, Release And Covenant Not To Sue (the “AGREEMENT”). Contingent upon LORAL/LIBRASCOPE’s performance of its obligations under the AGREEMENT, STANFORD, as the fee owner of the PROPERTIES, has agreed to grant LORAL/LIBRASCOPE, its employees, contractors, subcontractors, agents and successors in interest access to the PROPERTIES for the purpose of investigating, constructing, operating, and maintaining the remedy set forth in the final RAP for the SITE, or any reopeners or amendments thereto.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in reliance on the above recitals and in consideration of the mutual agreements, covenants, and other obligations set forth in the AGREEMENT, STANFORD hereby grants LORAL/LIBRASCOPE access to the PROPERTIES to conduct the REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES on the terms and conditions set forth below:

 

  1. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall have received the written permission of the master tenant(s) and any occupant(s) of the PROPERTIES to conduct the REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES.

 

-3-


  2. Upon completion of well drilling, LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall secure the wells in an appropriate manner (e.g., install locked caps).

 

  3. At its sole expense, LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall repair any damage to the PROPERTIES or improvements resulting from the REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES or LORAL/LIBRASCOPE’s presence on the PROPERTIES.

 

  4. If LORAL/LIBRASCOPE is required to install remediation equipment or other improvements on the surface of the PROPERTIES that will affect the aesthetic appearance or have a physical impact on the PROPERTIES, including but not limited to any trees located thereon, LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall obtain prior written consent from STANFORD, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

  5. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall provide STANFORD with the results of any tests it conducts on STANFORD lands, including but not limited to the PROPERTIES.

 

  6. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall take all reasonable safety and security precautions in connection with the REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES.

 

-4-


 

7.

In the event that any master lease pertaining to the PROPERTIES, or any portion thereof, is terminated or expires by its terms and a new master lessee or STANFORD, should STANFORD elect not to enter into a new master lease, requests that the conveyance pipeline be moved to a different location on the leased property, STANFORD may for good cause, taking into account the costs associated therewith, require LORAL/LIBRASCOPE, at LORAL/LIBRASCOPE’s sole expense, to move and relocate the conveyance pipeline as requested; however no such movement or relocation may occur without the prior approval of DTSC. The movement and relocation of the pipeline shall occur within sixty (60) days’ of written notice to LORAL/LIBRASCOPE of DTSC approval.

 

  8. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall allow a STANFORD archeologist (or suitable representative) to inspect any excavation for the presence of significant archeological artifacts. The PROPERTIES are not archaeologically sensitive; therefore, STANFORD agrees that in no case shall such inspection take the form of job stoppage unless required by law.

 

  9. Where excavation is necessary and the possibility exists of encountering existing underground utility lines, LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall call the Underground Service Alert organization (800/642-2444) two working days prior to commencing excavation.

 

- 5 -


  10. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless STANFORD from and against (and hereby waives any and all claims against STANFORD for) any and all claims, suits and demands of liability, loss, injury, death or damage resulting from LORAL/LIBRASCOPE’s presence on the PROPERTIES or the REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES. Such liability, loss, injury, death or damage shall include, but not be limited to, attorneys’ fees, as well as contamination or further contamination to any person or persons or property proximately caused by LORAL/LIBRASCOPE’s activities herein permitted. LORAL/LIBRASCOPE shall comply with all applicable laws, rules, ordinances, codes, and regulations, and shall indemnify STANFORD against all liabilities, losses, damages and costs resulting from any failure of LORAL/LIBRASCOPE to do so.

As used in this subparagraph, STANFORD shall include and be deemed to include The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University, its trustees, directors, officers, employees, faculty, students, agents, affiliated organizations and insurance carriers, if any.

 

- 6 -


  11. Nothing in this ACCESS AGREEMENT limits any rights or privileges STANFORD may have under its master leases for the PROPERTIES, nor does it modify any obligation, duty or right of any tenant or subtenant of the PROPERTIES.

 

  12. This ACCESS AGREEMENT shall be effective from the date hereof until LORAL/LIBRASCOPE’s completion of the remedies required by DTSC in the final RAP for the SITE.

 

  13. The access granted herein is exclusive to LORAL/LIBRASCOPE and its authorized representatives, agents, successors in interest, and independent contractors and is not assignable.

 

  14. This ACCESS AGREEMENT shall supercede any prior license(s) or agreement(s) between STANFORD and LORAL/LIBRASCOPE providing LORAL/LIBRASCOPE access to the PROPERTIES to conduct the REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES.

During said ninety (90) day period, Sublandlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to appeal or otherwise challenge the legality or enforceability of such law, regulation or order as it applies to Subtenant.

b. Subtenant shall not use or occupy the Subleased Premises in violation of the Ground Lease, the Master Lease or in violation of law, and shall, upon written notice from Sublandlord, Landlord, Stanford or and governmental authority or agency having jurisdiction (“Governmental Authority”), discontinue any use of the Subleased Premises which is declared by such Governmental

c.

d. At all times during the terms of this Sublease, Subtenant shall keep the Subleased Premises in a neat condition and shall conduct its business in a manner that does not create a nuisance, or unreasonable disturbance for the other occupants of the Building.

 

5. INCORPORATED MASTER LEASE PROVISIONS.

a. The Paragraphs contained in the Master Lease which are delineated in Section 5.b below are hereby incorporated by reference herein with the same force and effect as if fully set forth; provided that the term “Tenant” as defined therein shall for the purpose of this Sublease be deemed to be “Subtenant” as defined herein and the term “Landlord” as defined therein shall for the purposes of this Sublease be deemed to be “Sublandlord”. The term “Demised Premises” shall be deemed to mean the “Subleased Premises” and the term “Lease” as defined therein shall be deemed to mean this Sublease. All other capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the definitions set forth in the Master Lease.

b. Sublandlord shall use reasonable efforts to cause Landlord to perform as expeditiously as possible all the Landlord’s obligations under the Master Lease, provided that nothing contained in this Sublease (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 5(a) above) shall be construed as requiring Sublandlord to perform any obligation or discharge any duty which the Landlord may be required to perform or discharge under the Master Lease (including, without limitation, providing utilities, building systems, maintenance, repairs, replacements, Alterations, restoration, and building modifications necessary to comply with applicable laws, and the remediation, investigation and other matters related to Hazardous Materials to the extent that these are obligation of the Landlord under the terms of the Master Lease) in connection with the Subleased Premises. If Landlord fails or refuses to comply with any of

 

5


the provisions of the Master Lease insofar as they affect Subtenant’s occupancy of the Subleased Premises during the term of this Sublease, upon the request of Subtenant, Sublandlord shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts (without thereby being required to commence any legal action or proceeding, expend any monies or incur any expenses) to cause Landlord to do so. However, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Sublease, Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant, and Subtenant’s obligations hereunder shall not be impaired nor the performance thereof be excused, because of any failure or delay by Landlord in performing its obligations under the Master Lease as affecting Subtenant’s occupancy of the Subleased Premises during the term of the Sublease. If Landlord so defaults and such default has not been cured within the time period specified in the Master Lease (or within a reasonable time if no such period is specified) despite the exercise of Sublandlord’s commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such cure as hereinabove provided, Subtenant may, in the name of Sublandlord or its own name and at Subtenant’s sole expense, attempt to enforce Landlord’s performance of its obligations under the Master Lease; provided, however, that prior to the commencement of any litigation by Subtenant against Landlord with respect to such default, Subtenant shall have given Sublandlord not less than thirty (30) days written notice of its intent to commence such litigation and Sublandlord has not within such thirty (30) day period have given Subtenant notice of Sublandlord’s intent to commence such litigation. Sublandlord shall promptly forward to Landlord each notice which Subtenant delivers to Sublandlord advising of any default under the Master Lease by Landlord relating to Subtenant’s occupancy of the Subleased Premises and shall cooperate with Subtenant, at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, in the prosecution of any legal action or proceeding that is commenced under this section. Subtenant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Sublandlord from and against any claim, liability, cost or expense incurred in connection with such litigation or resulting therefrom, except to the extent however, of any negligent act or omission or willful misconduct of Sublandlord, its employees, agents contractors or invitees.

It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that Sublandlord is not making and Sublandlord is not responsible for and shall have no liability with respect to any representation, warranty or indemnity made by Landlord under the terms of the Master Lease.

Nothing contained in this Sublease shall be construed to grant Subtenant any right to renew or extend the term of this Sublease, or to downsize or expand the Subleased Premises.

c. Any inconsistencies between the terms of this Sublease and the terms of the Master Lease shall be resolved in favor of this Sublease. Nevertheless, if the construction of terms as provided for in the immediately preceding sentence would cause Sublandlord to be in default under the terms of the Master Lease, then any aforementioned inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of the Master Lease. Nothing contained in the sentence immediately preceding this one shall be construed to increase the obligations of Subtenant

6. DAMAGE AND CONDEMNATION

a. If all or any portion of the Subleased Premises are condemned by any governmental authority, or damaged or destroyed by any peril or casualty and the Master Lease is not terminated, or the parties thereto are not entitled to terminate said Master Lease pursuant to its terms, then if the Subleased Premises cannot be fully restored within one hundred twenty (120) days after said casualty or condemnation, then Subtenant shall have the option to terminate the Sublease if the Subleased Premises cannot be, or are not in fact, fully restored by Landlord within such period to their condition promptly prior to the date of the peril or casualty. If the Sublease is not so terminated, Rent hereunder shall abate to the extent that the Subleased Premises are inaccessible or unusable and for so long as such portion is inaccessible or unusable (or in the event of a condemnation, to the extent the Subleased Premises has been reduced).

b. If during the final twelve (12) months of the term of this Sublease (or any extension term) the Subleased Premises are wholly or partially damaged, destroyed or rendered inaccessible and Subtenant is unable, in its sole reasonable discretion, to carry on its normal operations in all or a substantial portion of the Subleased Premises, Subtenant may, at its option, terminate the Sublease upon written notice to Sublandlord.

c. If all or substantially all of the Subleased Premises shall be condemned for public use or voluntarily transferred to a public or quasi-public body in lieu of proceeding to a judgment of condemnation, this Sublease shall terminate and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of condemnation

 

7. SUBTENANT’S INSURANCE

a. Subtenant agrees to provide at its sole cost and expense before the Commencement Date and to keep in force at all times during the term of this Sublease (i) “special risk” property insurance covering the full replacement value of Subtenant’s personal property (including all of Subtenant’s furniture, fixtures, equipment, supplies and inventory, excluding any such items that are owned by Sublandlord and lease to Subtenant pursuant to the terms of this Sublease) and improvements and betterments in the Subleased Premises constructed by Subtenant, (ii) comprehensive general liability insurance (a/k/a public liability insurance) with a combined single limit of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), which shall include contractual liability coverage, in respect of Subtenant’s conduct and operation of its business in the Building and umbrella or excess liability insurance, on an occurrence basis, that applies excess of the

 

9


comprehensive general liability insurance, with a combined single limit of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000); and (iii) workers compensation insurance as required by applicable law. All insurance required hereunder shall comply with the requirements, if any, set forth in the Ground Lease. On or before the Commencement Date and thereafter upon the reasonable request of Sublandlord not more often than once in any six (6) month period, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord reasonably acceptable insurance certificates evidencing such policies and issued by insurers that are reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord. With respect to the aforementioned comprehensive general liability insurance policy, Sublandlord, Landlord, Stanford and their mortgagees, if any, shall be named as additional insureds. The limits of any such insurance described herein shall not limit the liability of Subtenant under the terms of this Sublease. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Sublease to the contrary, Sublandlord shall have no liability for any damage, loss, theft or injury to (i) any furniture, fixtures, equipment, inventory, improvements or betterments or other personal property of Subtenant, or (ii) any vehicle on or about the Demised Premises, including any vehicle in the parking lot. Each insurance policy described in this section shall be issued by an insurance company reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord, and Subtenant shall not materially reduce coverage, cancel or terminate any insurance policy required hereunder without thirty (30) days prior written notice to Sublandlord.

b. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto for themselves, their successors, assigns, Subtenant, and sub-Subtenants release each other and their respective agents, employees, successors and assigns from all liability for damage to any property that is actually covered by property insurance in force or which would normally be covered by full replacement value all risk property insurance, without regard to the negligence or willful misconduct of the entity so release. Each party shall cause each such insurance policy it obtains to include a waiver of subrogation regarding the liabilities released hereby.

9. CONDITION OF SUBLEASED PREMISES AND ALTERATIONS

a. Subtenant hereby agrees to accept possession of the Subleased Premises in an “AS IS” condition. Subtenant acknowledges that it has been given full access and opportunity to thoroughly inspect and examine the Subleased Premises and Subtenant further acknowledges that it has examined the Subleased Premises and is as familiar with the physical condition thereof as Subtenant deems necessary. Sublandlord has not made and does not make any representation or warranty as to the physical condition, the use to which the Subleased Premises may be put, or any other matter or thing affecting or relating to the Subleased Premises except as may be herein expressly set forth. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord agrees that (i) as of the Commencement Date the structural portions of the Subleased Premises (including, without limitation, the exterior walls and the foundation) shall be in good order, condition and repair or Sublandlord shall promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Landlord to put such structural portion of the Subleased Premises into good order, condition and repair after notice from Subtenant that any of said portions of the Subleased Premises are not in good order, condition and repair, (ii) as of the Commencement Date the Subleased Premises shall be in compliance with all applicable laws and building codes (including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act) or promptly after notice from Subtenant which is received by Sublandlord within twenty (20) days of the Commencement Date that any portion of the Subleased Premises is not in compliance, Sublandlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Landlord to put the Subleased Premises into compliance with said laws and

 

11


codes. In no event shall Subtenant be required to incur any expense in order to cause the Subleased Premises to be in compliance with applicable laws and building codes as of the Commencement Date, and (iii) all heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, plumbing, life-safety and electrical systems serving the Subleased Premises shall be in good working order and condition on the Commencement Date.

b. Subtenant shall have the right to make non-structural modifications and alterations (“Alterations) to the Subleased Premises subject to Subtenant preparing acceptable plans and specifications and Landlord’s and Sublandlord’s approval; provided, however, no such approval shall be required with respect to Alterations not affecting the Building structure or systems and costing less than $25,000.00, but Subtenant shall give Sublandlord at least twenty (20) days advance notice of such Alterations, and within fifteen (15) days after their completion Subtenant shall provide Sublandlord a copy of the plans and specifications for any such Alterations if available. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord agrees that Subtenant may perform the initial Alterations stated on Exhibit D hereto shortly following the Commencement Date. Subtenant will confirm that all Alterations materially meet and comply with all code requirements. Any and all contractors hired by Subtenant must comply with the comprehensive general liability and worker’s compensation insurance required by Section 7 of this Sublease.

c. Sublandlord’s grant or denial of its approval of the Alterations as provided for herein, shall be done as promptly as reasonably possible, and Sublandlord’s failure to approve or disapprove the Initial Alterations within ten (10) business days of receipt of the plans and specifications shall be deemed an approval thereof subject, however, to Landlord’s approval thereof. Sublandlord shall submit the preliminary space plan to Landlord at the same time it submits this Sublease to Sublandlord for approval, and the plans and specifications shall be submitted to Landlord thereafter, promptly upon Sublandlord’s receipt of plans and specifications from Subtenant. Any damage to the Building resulting from such Alterations or modifications shall be repaired at Subtenant’s expense. Subtenant shall make reasonable efforts to ensure its contractors coordinate alteration activities with Sublandlord and use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with other tenants or subtenants in the Building.

If Subtenant’s Alterations and modifications are special use features not typically found in general office space, Landlord shall have the right, by giving Subtenant notice at the time of approval, to require Subtenant to remove such Alterations and modifications upon the expiration or termination of the Lease term and to restore the affected portion of the ordinary wear and tear excepted. The term “special use” features” shall be deemed to mean such Alterations to the Subleased Premises that may be made by or on Subtenant’s behalf, that are not ordinary or customary in office space, that are made for Subtenant’s peculiar use of the Subleased Premises, or that involve Alterations to the slab, ceiling, HVAC, plumbing or electrical systems.

 

12


d. Sublandlord agrees to make best efforts to remove any existing furniture in the Subleased Premises prior to the Commencement Date.

e. The requirements for Alterations as set forth in this Section 9 shall be in addition to the requirements as set forth in the Master Lease to the extent those terms of the Master Lease are incorporated herein by reference pursuant to the terms of Section 5 of this Sublease.

f. At all times Subtenant shall keep the Subleased Premises and the Subleased Premises free from any liens arising out of the work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by Subtenant.

 

10. BROKERAGE

Sublandlord and Subtenant acknowledge that Cushman and Wakefield of California, Incorporated is the real estate broker for Sublandlord and Cresa Partners is the broker for Subtenant which brought about this sublease transaction, and Sublandlord shall pay the brokerage commission to such brokers pursuant to a separate agreement. Sublandlord hereby agrees to indemnify Subtenant against the claims of any other broker arising from Sublandlord’s acts, and Subtenant hereby agrees to indemnify Sublandlord against the claims of any other broker arising from Subtenant’s acts.

 

11. INDEMNIFICATION

a. Except to the extent of any negligence or wilful misconduct of Sublandlord, its employees or its agents, Subtenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Sublandlord against and from any and all causes and claims arising from Subtenant’s use of the Subleased Premises or the conduct of its business in the Subleased Premises or from any activity, work done, permitted or suffered by the Subtenant in or about the Subleased Premises, and shall further indemnify and hold harmless Sublandlord against and from any and all claims arising from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation of Subtenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Sublease, or arising from any action, neglect, fault or omission of the Subtenant, or of its agents or employees arising from the performance of any obligation of Subtenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Sublease, and from and against all costs, reasonable attorney’s fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in or about such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon, and in case any action or proceeding be brought against Sublandlord by reason of any such claim, Subtenant upon notice from Sublandlord shall defend the same at Subtenant’s expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Sublandlord. Subtenant, as a material part of the consideration to Sublandlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Subleased Premises from any cause whatsoever except to the extent caused by Sublandlord’s negligence, willful misconduct or failure of Sublandlord to observe any of the terms and conditions to this Sublease, or to the extent covered by any

 

13


indemnity. Sublandlord shall give Subtenant prompt written notice, with full particulars, of any claim subject to this indemnity. Subtenant shall have no obligation to pay any amount in connection with any settlement reached without Subtenant’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

b. Subtenant covenants and agrees that Stanford University shall not any time or to any extent whatsoever be liable, responsible or in any way accountable for any loss, injury, death, or damage to persons or property or otherwise, whether direct or consequential including without limitation, loss or damage to the Subleased Premises and the Building, attorney’s fees, which at any time may be suffered or sustained by Subtenant or by any person whosoever may at any time be using or occupying or visiting the Subleased Premises or be in, on or about the same, whether such loss, injury, death or damage shall be caused by or in any way result from or arise out of any act, omission or negligence of Subtenant or of any occupant, sub-subtenant, visitor or user of any portion of the Subleased Premises, or shall result from or be caused by any other person, matter or thing whether of the same kind as, or of a different kind than, the persons, matters or things above set forth except to the extent that any loss, injury, death, or damage may be caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Stanford University. Subtenant shall forever indemnify, defend, hold and save Stanford University free and harmless of, from and against any and all claims, liability, loss or damage whatsoever on account of any such loss, injury, death or damage except to the extent that any loss, injury, death or damage may be caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Stanford University. Subtenant hereby waives all claims against Stanford University for damages to the Subleased Premises and to the property of Subtenant in, upon or about the Subleased Premises, and for injuries to persons or property in or about the Subleased Premises,, from any cause arising at any time except to the extent that any, injury, death or damage may be caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Stanford University.

c. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Subtenant agrees that the provisions of this Section 11 apply to all Hazardous Materials used, stored, generated, treated, disposed or released (“Used”) on, in or under the Subleased Premises by Subtenant and that Subtenant will indemnify, defend, hold and save Stanford University free and harmless from claims, liability, loss or damage on account of such Hazardous Substances used by Subtenant and that Subtenant will remove such substances used by Subtenant that are now or hereafter on, in or under the Subleased Premises in a safe and prudent manner and within a reasonable time that is agreed to by Stanford University. The parties hereto recognize and agree that from time to time Stanford University in its reasonable discretion may require the removal of Hazardous Materials or other remediation even though such Stanford University requirements are in excess of or in the absence of applicable governmental requirements. Any dispute with regard to such Stanford University removal or remediation requirements that are in excess of or in the absence or applicable governmental requirements shall be subject to arbitration pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 38 of the Ground Lease; provided, however, that if there is a contemporaneous

 

14


dispute with regard to governmental required remediation of Hazardous Substances then Stanford University may join the dispute with regard to its independent requirements with a legal action in court of competent jurisdiction with respect to the government required remediation instead of the arbitration.

As used in this Section 11, Stanford University shall include and be deemed to include The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University and its trustees, directors, officers, employees, faculty, students, agents, and affiliated organizations.

d. The obligations under this Section 11 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Sublease.

e. Neither party to this Sublease shall be liable to the other with respect to any consequential or incidental damages including, without limitation, loss of profits or loss of rental value.

 

12. SIGNS

Subtenant shall be entitled to install signage on the entry glass (applied to the glass but not etched in the glass) at the entrance to Building 2, 1st floor on the wall adjacent to the entry door. All such signage requires prior written approval from Sublandlord and subject to the approval of Landlord and Stanford to the extent such approval is required under the Master Lease and the Ground Lease, respectively. Sublandlord shall include Subtenant’s name in all Campus Directories. Subtenant shall have the right, subject to the prior written consent of Sublandlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to place a sign on the interior lobby wall adjacent to the entry door.

 

13. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE

a. In the event Subtenant desires to assign this Sublease or to Sub- sublease all of the Subleased Premises, Subtenant shall first offer Sublandlord the option to recapture the Subleased Premises which Subtenant proposes to assign or sub-sublease. Subtenant agrees to set forth in its notice to Sublandlord the date on which the Subleased Premises shall be available for recapture, assignment or sub-sublease. Sublandlord shall, after written notice from Subtenant, have fifteen (15) days in which to notify Subtenant whether or not Sublandlord desires to exercise its option to recapture.

b. In the event Sublandlord does not exercise its option to recapture, Subtenant shall have the right to assign this Sublease or to sub- sublease all of the Subleased Premises, with Sublandlord’s consent which consent may be withheld on any reasonable basis. Should Sublandlord fail to respond to Subtenant’s request within thirty (30) days, Sublandlord consent shall be

 

15


deemed given, subject to the approval rights of Landlord. In the event that such assignment or sub-subleasing does not occur within 180 days after Sublandlord declines to recapture the subject space then such space shall once again be offered to Sublandlord for recapture in the event that thereafter Subtenant desires to so assign or sub-sublet said space. Any such assignment or subletting shall not relieve Subtenant of its obligations hereunder.

c. In the event the rent received by Subtenant from any Sub-tenant or assignee exceeds the Rent and other charges allocable to such space being paid by Subtenant to Sublandlord, then and in such event, after deducting from such excess Subtenant’s reasonable expense (including, without limitation, reasonable brokers commissions and reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the unamortized cost of modifications, Alterations and improvements constructed by Subtenant with respect to the space so sublet or assigned) in connection with such subletting or assignment, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord the Rent and other charges due under the terms of this Sublease without reduction, and in addition thereto, when received from a sub-Subtenant or assignee, fifty percent (50%) of the amount received by Subtenant from such Sub-Subtenant or assignee in excess of the Rent and other charges paid by Subtenant to Sublandlord with respect to the space so sublet or assigned.

d. If Subtenant requests that Sublandlord consent to an assignment or subletting, Subtenant shall reimburse Sublandlord, within fifteen (15) days of request by Sublandlord, for Sublandord’s actual, reasonable out-of-pocket expenditures in such regard (including, without limitation, expenditures for reasonable attorney’s fees and architect/engineer’s fees), not to exceed an aggregate of $1,500 for any such request for consent, with the invoice for such services to accompany Sublandord’s request for reimbursement.

e. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary in this Section 12, Subtenant may, without Sublandlord’s consent (but with 10 days prior notice) and without being subject to any recapture or excess rent provisions of this Sublease, sublet the Subleased Premises or assign this Sublease to (a) an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Subtenant, (b) a successor corporation related to Subtenant by merger, consolidation or reorganization, or (c) a purchaser of substantially all of the assets of Subtenant. The term “control,” as used herein, shall mean the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the controlled entity through the ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities in such controlled entity.

f. No assignment of this Sublease by Subtenant or sub-sublease of the Subleased Premises shall release or relieve Subtenant of its liability and responsibility for the full performance of all of its obligations under the terms of this Sublease.

 

16


14. SUBORDINATION OF SUBLEASE

This Sublease is subject and subordinate to the Master Lease and Ground Lease, and Subtenant shall have no greater rights in and to the Subleased Premises than Sublandlord has as tenant under the Master Lease.

 

15. TERMINATION OF MASTER LEASE

a. Subject to the terms of the nondisturbance agreement (if any) in the Landlord’s consent form pursuant to Section 17 of this Sublease, in the event that the Master Lease shall terminate by operation of law or otherwise, or Landlord or Sublandlord as tenant under the Master Lease cancels or terminates the Master Lease, as expressly provided therein, or in the event that the Landlord shall terminate the Master Lease for any reason, this Sublease shall thereupon automatically be canceled and terminated, and both parties hereto shall thereupon be relieved of all further liability hereunder; except the obligations which shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease and those obligations that shall have accrued prior to the effective date of such termination.

b. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 15, Sublandlord shall be liable to Subtenant for any Claims incurred or suffered by Subtenant as a result of a termination of the Master Lease as a result of (i) a voluntary termination of the Master Lease by Sublandlord unless such termination was due to the default of Landlord under the terms of the Master Lease or pursuant to a express right of termination granted in the Master Lease in the event of casualty or condemnation, (ii) an act or omission by Sublandlord (which is not caused by Subtenant, its agents, employees, licensees, contractors or invitees) which entitles Master Landlord to terminate the Master Lease, or (iii) a default by Sublandlord under the Master Lease that does not result from a violation of the terms of the Master Lease by Subtenant or a default by Subtenant under the terms of this Sublease. Sublandlord’s liability as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Sublease.

c. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 15, Subtenant shall be liable to Sublandlord for any Claims incurred or suffered by Sublandlord as a result of (i) a termination of the Master Lease as a result of any act or omission of Subtenant, its employees, agents, invitees or contractors, or (ii) any breach by Subtenant in the performance of its obligations under the terms of this Sublease. Subtenant’s liability as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Sublease.

d. Sublandlord shall fully perform all obligations of “Tenant” under the terms of the Master Lease except for such matters as shall be the obligation of Subtenant to perform pursuant to the terms of this Sublease. In addition, Sublandlord shall not agree to amend the Master Lease or the Ground Lease in a manner that would adversely affect Subtenant’s rights under this Sublease without Subtenant’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Subtenant’s sole but reasonable discretion.

 

17


16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Sublease represents the entire agreement between the parties, and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements both written and oral between the parties and/or their brokers or other representatives, and may be amended only by a written agreement executed by the parties. The terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Sublandlord and Subtenant and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

17. CONSENT

a. This Sublease is subject to the written consent of Landlord, and Stanford (the “Consenting Parties”). If such consents are not obtained within thirty (30) days of Subtenant’s and Sublandlord’s execution of this Sublease then Sublandlord and Subtenant shall both have the right to terminate this Sublease by written notice to the other delivered at any time prior to the date the consents of Landlord and Stanford are received by Sublandlord. In the event that this Sublease is terminated pursuant to the terms of this section then neither party shall have any liability or responsibility to the other with respect to any matter relating to this Sublease or the Subleased Premises, except that Sublandlord shall promptly return to Subtenant any Security Deposit Subtenant may have paid. Subtenant shall promptly provide such information as Landlord and/or Stanford may reasonably request and Subtenant shall execute such reasonable consent document(s) as may be reasonably required by the Consenting Parties. Any fees charged by the Consenting Parties for such consents shall be the sole responsibility of Sublandlord.

b. Landlord shall not be deemed to have consented to the Sublease unless such executed consent document shall include provisions substantially similar to the following, or unless Subtenant shall waive the requirement that said provisions be included in the consent:

(i) Subtenant may, without Landlord’s consent and without being subject to any recapture or excess rent provisions of this Sublease, sublet the Subleased Premises or assign this Sublease to (a) an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Subtenant, (b) a successor corporation related to Subtenant by merger, consolidation or reorganization, or (c) a purchaser of substantially all of the assets of Subtenant.

c. At the same time Sublandlord requests that Landlord consent to the Sublease, Sublandlord shall also ask that Landlord’s consent include provisions substantially similar to the following:

(i) Landlord agrees that Section 16(d) of the Master Lease shall also apply as between Landlord and Subtenant; and

 

18


(ii) So long as Subtenant is not then in default under the Sublease beyond applicable notice and cure periods, in the event of any termination of the Master Lease, the Sublease shall not terminate as a result thereof and Subtenant shall instead automatically become primary tenant of the Subleased Premises on the terms and conditions of the Sublease. In such event, Subtenant shall be bound and attorn to Landlord, and Landlord shall recognize and shall not disturb the rights and interest of Subtenant under all of the terms and conditions of the Sublease as if Landlord had been the original “Sublandlord” under the Sublease.

In the event that Landlord refuses to include in its consent the matters described herein above in this section (c) then Subtenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to directly contact Landlord to request the same; provided, however, no such refusal on the part of Landlord shall be deemed a denial of Landlord’s consent to the Sublease.

d. With respect to any consent or approval required of Sublandlord under the terms of this Sublease wherein Sublandlord is required to be reasonable, Sublandlord may withhold its consent if it is reasonable to do so, and Sublandlord may condition the effectiveness of its consent or approval, if granted, upon obtaining Landlord’s consent or approval if Landlord is required to consent or approve of such matter pursuant to the terms of this Sublease or the Master Lease.

 

18. SECURITY DEPOSIT

a. Upon the execution of this Sublease, Subtenant shall deliver an irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) to Sublandlord, as a security deposit for the full and faithful performance by Subtenant of all of its obligations under this Sublease. The Letter of Credit shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E and shall run in favor of Sublandlord. The Letter of Credit shall be issued by a national bank acceptable to Sublandlord and shall be in the amount of Eighty Five ($85,000) Thousand U.S. Dollars, which amount shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the adjustment schedule which shall be set forth in said Letter of Credit and which schedule shall state the specific dollar amount of each adjustment and the date said adjustment shall occur, all of which shall be in accordance with the terms set forth below. The Letter of Credit shall be (a) at sight and irrevocable and (b) maintained in effect, throughout the entire Term of this Sublease, and shall not terminate until this Sublease shall have been terminated or expired and Sublandlord shall have been paid all sums due under this Sublease including all sums actually expended by Sublandlord to cure any default by Subtenant. The terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit (and the bank issuing the same which party is referred to herein as the “Bank”) shall be reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord and shall provide, among other things, that Sublandlord, shall have the right to draw down an amount up to the face amount of the Letter of Credit upon the presentation to the Bank of Sublandlord’s statement

 

19


that such amount is due to Sublandlord under the terms and conditions of this Sublease. Subtenant further covenants and warrants that it shall not assign or encumber the Letter of Credit or any part thereof without Sublandlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If an event of default under this Sublease occurs, Sublandlord may, but without obligation to do so, use the Security Deposit by presenting the Letter of Credit to the Bank accompanied by Sublandlord’s demand to draw down on said Letter of Credit, or any portion thereof, in an amount not to exceed the amount required to cure the default and to compensate Sublandlord for any and all losses, expenses and damages sustained by Sublandlord resulting from Subtenant’s default (including, but not limited to, reasonable legal and other related expenses, and any deficiency in reletting the Sublease Premises), whether occurring before or after re-entry by Sublandlord. It is understood by Sublandlord that SILICON VALLEY BANK is acceptable to Sublandlord to issue the Letter of Credit.

b. In the event that Sublandlord shall use all or a portion of the Security Deposit as provided for above, Subtenant shall, within ten (10) days following Sublandlord’s written demand, deliver to Sublandlord another irrevocable letter of credit, which shall be similar in form and substance to the Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to the portion of the Security Deposit so applied or used so as to replenish the amount of the Security Deposit to the amount that it was immediately prior to Sublandlord’s application of a portion of said Security Deposit to Subtenant’s default. In lieu of providing an additional letter of credit, Subtenant may deposit cash with Sublandlord in an amount sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this section.

c. In the event that Sublandlord uses all or a portion of the Security Deposit as provided for herein, Subtenant shall not be deemed to have cured its default which gave rise to the use of such funds unless Subtenant shall have deposited, as soon as practicable following Sublandlord’s written demand, an additional letter of credit or cash with Sublandlord in the amount so applied so that the amount so applied shall be fully replenished and Sublandlord shall have the full amount of the Security Deposit as set forth above restored at all times during the term of this Sublease.

d. Sublandlord shall have the absolute right and option at any time after the expiration of the Fifteen Day Period to terminate the Sublease if Subtenant shall fail to deliver the Letter of Credit to Sublandlord.

 

19. FITNESS CENTER USAGE

a. During the term of this Sublease, Subtenant’s officers and employees shall have the non-exclusive right to use the fitness center (which includes the exercise room, the showers and locker rooms and the furniture,

 

20

Each Jazz User shall be required to sign an application, a release agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto, and such other documentation as Sublandlord shall deem reasonably appropriate prior to using the Fitness Center. Each Jazz User shall be required to conform to such reasonable written rules and regulations as may be promulgated from time to time by Sublandlord for the efficient operation of the Fitness Center, and the failure by any Jazz User to abide to such rules and regulations shall constitute grounds for the termination of his or her right to use the Fitness Center, in Sublandlord’s sole reasonable discretion.

b. Upon not less that thirty (30) days advance written notice to Subtenant, Sublandlord shall have the right to modify the Fitness Center’s hours of operations in its discretion and/or to increase the monthly Jazz User fee; provided, however, any such changes shall be equally applicable to both Jazz Users and to other Fitness Center users; and further provided that no such fee increase during any twelve (12) month period shall exceed Five ($5.00) Dollars per month per Jazz User. Sublandlord shall have the right in its sole discretion to temporarily or permanently close the Fitness Center upon not less than thirty (30) days advance written notice to Subtenant. At any time, Sublandlord shall have the right to terminate the right to use the Fitness Center with (30) days advance notice if Sublandlord no longer occupies Building 1 of the Demised Premises. In the event of any such closure, Sublandlord shall promptly return all monies, if any, paid in advance by any Jazz User for use of the Fitness Center for any period after the date of such closure. Sublandlord shall have no liability or responsibility to Subtenant or its officers or employees with respect to any such closure.

c. Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby release each other and waive any and all rights of recovery against each other with respect to any and all losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by the waiving party arising from or related to any death or injury which occurs in, on or about the Fitness Center, whether due to the negligence of either party, their agents, employees, officers, licensees, invitees or contractors, or otherwise.

The Demised Premises may be used and occupied for research and development, training, receiving, storing, prototype manufacturing and ancillary office use including the use of computers and various other electronic equipment needed for Tenant’s business. Landlord covenants, to the best of Landlord’s knowledge, that there are no zoning ordinances, provisions of the underlying ground lease (“Ground Lease”), or any other prohibitions restricting or limiting the use of the Demised Premises for the purpose herein specified. Should any law, regulation or other governmental order substantially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Demised Premises, then Tenant may cancel this Lease upon written notice to Landlord within ninety (90) days following that date upon which Tenant shall have become aware of such law, regulation or order and thereupon Tenant shall have no further obligation to Landlord.

Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises in violation of the Ground Lease or in violation of law, and shall, upon written notice from Landlord, discontinue any use of the Premises which is declared by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to be a violation of law. Tenant shall have the right, with Landlord’s cooperation, to appear before any governmental authority or to bring any action to contest any zoning change or similar change in use restrictions which may impair Tenant’s use of the Premises as permitted herein. Tenant shall comply with any direction of any governmental authority having jurisdiction, which shall by reason of the nature of Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises impose any duty upon Tenant or Landlord with respect to the Premises, or with respect to the use or occupation thereof. Tenant shall comply with all conditions of approval for development permits issued for the Complex, including implementation of a Transportation Demand Management (“TDM”) program if required by City ordinance.

Landlord shall-keep in good order and repair the following: (a) the structural parts of each of the Building that comprise the Premises, including the foundation, subflooring, floor slab, exterior walls, structural walls, roof, and utilities outside the exterior of each Building and under the floors and floor slabs, together with all interior and/or glass damage due to any structural failure or defect, (b) the roof membrane, (c) all paved areas, including parking lot and walkways, and (d) landscaping. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing of any items which need maintenance or repair.

Tenant shall furnish its own cleaning services, trash removal and maintenance of the HVAC system and elevators. Upon notification by Tenant, Landlord shall promptly repair any damage to or defect in the Premises and the Building; provided, however, that if such damage is occasioned by fault or neglect of the Tenant (except as provided in paragraph 16 hereof) and there shall not be in effect at the time such damage occurred a policy or policies of insurance insuring Landlord against any loss resulting from such damage, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the reasonable actual cost of repairs or if the proceeds of such insurance are insufficient to cover such cost, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the difference between such cost and the proceeds which Landlord received.

Landlord shall ensure that, as of the Commencement Date, all existing building systems, if any, shall be in good working order.

Tenant hereby waives all rights under and any benefit of the provisions of Sections 1932 (1), 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code and any similar or successor law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter enacted.

After the Commencement Date, Tenant shall make no alterations, decorations, additions or improvements (“Alterations”) in or to the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord’s consent shall also state whether the Alterations must be removed upon termination of the Lease. The contractors or mechanics used by Tenant for any Alterations shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval. If Landlord fails to respond to Tenant’s request for consent within fifteen (15) business days after such request, Landlord’s consent shall be deemed given and Tenant shall not be required to remove the Alterations specified in Tenant’s request upon termination of the Lease.

Before commencing any work, Tenant shall give Landlord and Stanford University at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the proposed commencement of such work. Tenant shall, if required by Landlord or Stanford University, secure at Tenant’s own cost and expense a completion and lien indemnity bond, reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Stanford, for such work.

Tenant further covenants that any mechanic’s lien filed against the Premises or against the Complex for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant, will be discharged by Tenant at the expense of Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within fifteen (15) days after written notice of the existence of such lien. Tenant shall at all times retain title to and receive any depreciation or tax benefits available from the Alterations installed at Tenant’s expense. Such Alterations shall become Landlord’s property upon termination of the Lease if they are not removed by Tenant upon the expiration or termination of the Lease. Landlord shall have no interest in any of Tenant’s personal property located in the Premises, and Landlord hereby waives all such interest.

Tenant shall repair any damage caused by removal of its property. If Tenant shall fail to remove all of its effects from the Premises upon termination of this Lease for any cause whatsoever, Landlord after ten (10) days’ written notice to Tenant may, at its option, remove the same in any manner that Landlord shall choose, and store such property without liability to Tenant for loss thereof. Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand any and all expenses incurred in such removal, including court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and storage charges on such effects for any length of time that the same shall be in Landlord’s possession; or Landlord may, at its option, without notice, sell said effects, or any of the same, at private sale and without legal process, for such price as Landlord may obtain and apply the proceeds of such sale upon any amounts due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord and upon the expenses incident to the removal and sale of said effects. In the event of an early termination of the Lease, through no fault of Tenant, Tenant shall have a reasonable period of time to remove its personal property before Landlord is entitled to remove and store the same.

All signs shall be installed at Tenant’s expense.

 

9. SERVICES

Landlord shall furnish the following installations and/or services to Tenant, all of which shall be adequate for the intended use of the Premises and in conformity with that furnished in local office buildings of similar nature, but in no event shall these services be provided less than 24 hours per day, seven (7) days per week.

 

  (a) Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole expense, install separate meters for each Building in the Complex and the common areas and provide connections to all utilities used by Tenant during the term of this Lease.

  (b) Landlord acknowledges that the availability of sufficient parking is a material inducement to the entering into of this Lease by Tenant. Landlord represents that it has sufficient parking available to provide at no cost to Tenant and for Tenant’s exclusive use at least 3.3 paved parking spaces for every 1,000 square feet in the Demised Premises excluding cafeteria and physical fitness rooms (and similar floor space, if any, not used by the City of Palo Alto in determining the number of legally required parking spaces) which shall be in an open parking area. If so requested by Tenant, Landlord shall designate by marking or otherwise up to 40 visitor spaces, such spaces as exclusive for Tenant visitors.

 

  (c) Tenant shall not at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant’s trucks or other vehicles or the trucks and vehicles of Tenant’s suppliers or visitors, in any portion of the Complex that may be designated for use by other tenants of the Complex and their visitors or permit parking by Tenant’s employees in excess of the number of spaces allocated for Tenant’s use in Paragraph 9(b). Tenant agrees to assume responsibility for compliance by its employees with the parking provisions contained herein. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord, at Tenant’s sole expense, to tow away from the Complex any vehicle belonging to Tenant or Tenant’s employees parked in violation of these provisions, or to attach violation stickers or notices to such vehicles.

  (b) The Ground Lease is in full force and effect; there have been no materialdefaults by either party thereto, and no circumstances exist that would, with notice or lapse of time, consitiute a material default.

In the event this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereunder is subject to the prior rights of any mortgagee or ground lessor, then Landlord shall secure from each mortgagee or lessor a written agreement in recordable form satisfactory to Tenant whereby Tenant, so long as Tenant is not in material default hereunder, may remain in possession of the Demised Premises pursuant to the terms hereof should Landlord become in default with respect to such mortgage or ground lease or should the Premises become the subject of any action to foreclose any mortgage, terminate the Ground Lease or to dispossess Landlord. Such agreements shall be secured and furnished to Tenant at least thirty (30) days prior to the Commencement Date, or Tenant may at its option, terminate this Lease.

Landlord covenants and represents that it has full and complete authority to enter into this Lease under all of the terms, conditions and provisions set forth herein, and so long as Tenant keeps and substantially performs each and every term, provision and condition herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed, Tenant shall peacefully and quietly enjoy the Premises without hindrance or molestation by Landlord or by any other person claiming by, through or under Landlord.

 

12. SUBORDINATION

Tenant shall, if so requested by Landlord’s lender or ground lessor execute any documents necessary to subordinate the priority of this Lease and the leasehold estate created hereunder to the lien of any mortgage or ground lease covering the Buildings, Complex or Premises; provided, however, that the mortgagee or ground lessor, as the case may be, shall deliver to Tenant at or prior to the time that this Lease becomes so subordinate a written agreement in recordable form satisfactory to Tenant whereby Tenant, so long as Tenant is not in material default hereunder, may remain in possession of the Premises pursuant to the terms hereof and should Landlord become in default with respect to such mortgage or ground lease or should the Complex, Buildings or Premises become the subject of any action to foreclose any mortgage, terminate the Ground Lease or to dispossess Landlord. Any fee which Landlord’s lender or ground lessor may charge for such agreement shall be paid by Landlord.

This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the Ground Lease, and to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust now placed on or against the Premises or Landlord’s estate or interest therein.

13. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE

Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage or otherwise encumber all or any part of Tenant’s interest in the Lease or in the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord’s consent shall not be required for any sublease of all or any portion of the Premises, provided, however, that Tenant shall inform Landlord of all subleases and Landlord shall have the right to disapprove any proposed subtenant if the subtenant’s use of the Premises is inconsistent with the Ground Lease or applicable zoning. If Landlord disapproves a proposed subtenant as permitted, the sublease shall be void. No sublease shall extend beyond expiration of the then term of the Lease. Any attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, or encumbrance without Landlord’s consent shall, at the option of Landlord, constitute grounds for termination of the Lease. Landlord shall respond to Tenant’s request for consent within fifteen (15) days or Landlord’s consent shall be deemed given. Tenant may assign the Lease to the following entities without obtaining the Landlord’s consent: (i) a subsidiary, affiliate, division or corporation controlled or under common control with Tenant; or (ii) a successor corporation related to Tenant by merger, consolidation, non-bankruptcy reorganization, purchase or exchange of stock. Each proposed subletting is also subject to any rights of Stanford University under the Ground Lease, including any rights of first refusal and approval of leases.

Each subletting or assignment shall be by an instrument in writing in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and shall be executed by the sublessor or assignor and by the sublessee or assignee in each instance, as the case may be, and each sublessee or assignee shall agree in writing for the benefit of the Landlord herein to assume, to be bound by and to perform the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease to be done, kept and performed by the Tenant. One executed copy of such written instrument shall be delivered to the Landlord.

No subletting or assignment shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any assignment.

 

14. LEASE EXTENSION

 

  (a) If this Lease, shall not have been terminated pursuant to any provisions hereof and no material defaults then exist of which Tenant has received notice, then Tenant may, at Tenant’s option, extend the term of this Lease for Two (2) successive additional terms of Five (5) years each, commencing on the expiration of the original term, or the immediately preceding additional term as the case may be. Tenant shall give Landlord nonbinding notice of intent to extend or not to extend not later than twelve (12) months prior to expiration of the then term. Tenant may exercise such option by giving Landlord written notice at least two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the expiration of the original or additional term as the case may be. If after giving nonbinding notice of its intent to extend, Tenant decides not to extend, the Lease term shall be extended to be twelve (12)

 

11


months from notice to Landlord not to extend. Upon the giving by Tenant to Landlord of such written notice and the compliance by Tenant with the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 14, this Lease shall be deemed to be automatically extended upon all the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions, and conditions, set forth in this Lease except for such terms and conditions as are expressly inapplicable during any additional term or in connection with this Paragraph 14 and except for rent which shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 14(b). If Tenant fails or omits to so give to Landlord the first written notice referred to above, it shall be deemed, without further notice and without further agreement between the parties hereto, that Tenant elected not to exercise the options granted Tenant pursuant to this Paragraph 14, to extend the term of this lease for additional periods. This extension option is personal to Xerox Corporation and shall expire upon expiration of any sublease coterminus with the then term or upon assignment to any entity other than an assignee for whom consent is not required under Paragraph 13.

 

  (b) The rental rate for each Option Period shall be determined as follows:

 

  (i) The parties shall have fifteen (15) days after Landlord receives Tenant’s Notice within which to agree on the rental rate for the Option Period in question based upon ninety-five percent (95%) of then fair market rental value of the Premises as defined in Paragraph 2(c). If the parties agree on the rental rate for that Option Period within fifteen (15) days, they shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating the rental rate for that Option Period.

 

  (ii) If the parties are unable to agree on the rental rate for an Option Period within such fifteen (15) day period, then, the rental rate for that Option Period shall be ninety-five percent (95%) of then current fair market rental value of the Premises as determined in accordance with Paragraph 14(b)(iv) below.

 

  (iii) The “then fair market value of the Premises” shall be defined to mean the fair market rental value of the Premises as of the commencement of the Option Period in question, taking into consideration the uses permitted under this Lease, the quality, size, design and location of the Premises; tenant improvement allowances, free rent periods and other adjustments; and the rent for comparable buildings located in comparable areas of Santa Clara County; but excluding the value of any improvements made to the Premises by Tenant at Tenant’s expense.

 

  (iv) Within seven (7) days after the expiration of the fifteen (15) day period set forth in Paragraph 14 (b)(i), each party, at its cost and by giving notice to the other party, shall appoint an M.A.I. real estate appraiser with at lease five (5) years’ full-time commercial appraisal experience in northern Santa Clara County and southern San Mateo County to appraise and set the then fair market rental value of the Premises for the Option Period in question. If a party does not appoint an appraiser within ten (10) days after the other party has given notice of the name of its appraiser, the single appraiser

 

12


appointed shall be the sole appraiser and shall set the then fair market rental value of the Premises. If the two (2) appraisers are appointed by the parties as stated in this paragraph, they shall meet promptly and attempt to set the then fair market rental value of the Premises. If they are unable to agree within thirty (30) days after the second appraiser has been appointed, they shall attempt to select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications stated in this paragraph within ten (10) days after the last day the two (2) appraisers are given to set the then 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, can apply to the then President of Santa Clara County Real Estate Board, or 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 (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 a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either party.

Within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third appraiser, a majority of the appraisers shall set the then fair market rental value of the Premises. If a majority of the appraisers are unable to set the then fair market rental value of the Premises within the stipulated period of time, the three (3) appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by three (3); the resulting quotient shall be the then fair market rental value of the Premises.

If, however, the low appraisal and/or the high appraisal are/is more than ten percent (10%) lower and/or higher than the the middle appraisal, the low appraisal and/or the high appraisal shall be disregarded. If only one appraisal is disregarded, the remaining two (2) appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by two (2); the resulting quotient shall be the then fair market rental value of the Premises. If both the low appraisal and the high appraisal are disregarded as stated in this paragraph, the middle appraisal shall be the then fair market rental value of the Premises.

After the then fair market rental value of the Premises has been set, the appraisers shall immediately notify the parties and the parties shall amend this Lease within fifteen (15) days of such notice to set forth ninety-five percent (95%) of such amount as the rental rate for the Option Period in question.

ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES

All disputes between Landlord and Tenant with respect to Paragraph 14 of this Lease, with respect to the determination of fair market value rental rates, shall be decided by arbitration. Tenant shall have the right, by giving written notice to Landlord, setting forth in detail the nature of the dispute, to request arbitration. The dispute shall be submitted to arbitration as follows:

 

13


Within fifteen (15) business days after delivery of the above notice, each party (Landlord and Tenant) shall appoint a person to act as an arbitrator in its behalf. Within five (5) business days thereafter, the two appointed arbitrators shall jointly appoint a third arbitrator. The dispute shall be arbitrated by said three arbitrators. A majority decision of the three arbitrators shall control. All of the arbitrators shall be persons having at least ten (10) years experience in dealing with commercial leases in office buildings within Santa Clara and/or San Mateo Counties, and none shall have any interest in the Building or the Complex or be or have been associated or affiliated with either Landlord or Tenant.

In the event Landlord and Tenant, or the two arbitrators fail or refuse to appoint an arbitrator within the time set forth herein, then either party shall have the right to petition the senior judge (in terms of years of service), of the United States District Court of the applicable Federal District in which the Building is situate, to appoint such arbitrator and the arbitrator appointed by said judge shall serve in said capacity.

All insurance provided by third parties shall be issued by carriers admitted in California and rated A:XII in Best’s Insurance Guide. Each party’s insurance policies shall name the other party, Stanford and Landlord’s lender as an additional insured, and provide that they may not be canceled, or reduced in amount, without at least fifteen (15) business days’ written notice to the other party. Upon request, each party shall furnish the other and Stanford University with certificates of insurance or other appropriate evidence of coverage for all required insurance.

17. DAMAGE

 

  (a) If at any time prior to expiration or termination of this Lease, the Premises are wholly or partially damaged, destroyed or rendered inaccessible by a risk fully covered (excluding deductibles) by insurance maintained by Landlord or for Landlord’s benefit, and the Tenant is unable, in its sole but reasonable discretion, to carry on its normal operations in all or a substantial portion of the Premises, then, Tenant shall give Landlord notice and within the later of thirty (30) days after Tenant’s notice or sixty (60) days after the damage or destruction, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of its reasonable determination that the Premises can or cannot be fully restored and ready for occupancy within one (1) year from the date of damage or destruction, without payment of overtime or other premiums.

 

16


  (1) If Landlord determines that the Premises can be so restored within one (1) year, (i) this Lease shall remain in full force, (ii) rent shall be abated proportionally for such portion of the Premises as is inaccessible or unusable, for so long as such portion is inaccessible or unusable; and (iii) Landlord shall proceed diligently to repair the damage or destruction, including all Tenant Improvements, using materials of at least the quality used in the original construction of the Complex, Premises and Tenant Improvements with a minimum of interference in Tenant’s normal operations. If, in Tenant’s sole but reasonable judgment, Landlord shall not have performed any of the above obligations in strict compliance therewith, then Tenant may, but shall not be required to, undertake such obligations, and reasonable, actual costs incurred as a result thereof shall be reimbursed by Landlord within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s request for payment.

 

  (2) If Landlord determines that the Premises cannot be so restored within one (1) year, then either Landlord or Tenant may, at its option, (i) terminate this Lease with respect to the Buildings substantially damaged or destroyed, or, if (ii) damage exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the replacement cost of the Premises, terminate the Lease. Upon partial termination, rent shall be reduced proportionally to reflect the reduced area of the leased Premises.

 

  (b) If any time prior to expiration or termination of this Lease, the Premises are wholly or partially damaged, destroyed or rendered inaccessible by a risk not fully covered (excluding deductibles) by insurance maintained by Landlord or for Landlord’s benefit, and the Tenant is unable, in its sole but reasonable discretion, to carry on its normal operations in all or a substantial portion of the Premises, then Tenant shall give Landlord notice and within sixty (60) days after the damage or destruction, Landlord shall give Tenant notice informing Tenant whether Landlord intends to repair such damage or destruction, and if so, whether such damage or destruction can be fully restored and ready for occupancy within one (1) year from the date of damage or destruction, without payment of overtime or other premiums.

 

  (1) If Landlord elects to repair and such damage or destruction can be fully restored within one (1) year, (i) this Lease shall remain in full force, (ii) rent shall be abated proportionally for such portion of the Premises as is inaccessible or unusable, for so long as such portion is inaccessible or unusable; and (iii) Landlord shall proceed diligently to repair the damage or destruction, including all Tenant Improvements, using materials of at least the quality used in the original construction of the Complex, Premises and Tenant Improvements with a minimum of interference in Tenant’s normal operations.

17


  (2) If Landlord does not elect to repair or determines that the Premises cannot be so restored within one (1) year, then Tenant may, at its option, (i) terminate this Lease with respect to the Buildings substantially damaged or destroyed, or, if (ii) damage exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the replacement cost of the Premises, terminate the Lease.

Upon partial termination, rent shall be reduced proportionally to reflect the reduced area of the leased Premises.

 

18. CONDEMNATION

 

  (a) If all or substantially all of the Premises shall be condemned for public use or voluntarily transferred to a public or quasi-public body in lieu of proceeding to a judgment of condemnation (hereinafter, “taken”), this Lease shall terminate and rent shall be adjusted to the date of termination.

 

  (b) If any portion of the Premises or Complex shall be taken and Tenant is unable, in Tenant’s sole but reasonable discretion, to carry on its normal business operations, Tenant shall have the right to (i) terminate this Lease with respect to the Buildings or portions thereof taken or, if (ii) fifty percent (50%) or more of the area of the Premises is taken, terminate the Lease. Upon any partial taking, if Tenant does not terminate the Lease,

 

  (1) Rent shall be reduced proportionally to reflect the reduced area of the leased Premises.

Tenant is hereby granted a lien upon any award or settlement resulting from the condemnation to the extent that Tenant has not been reimbursed for any such cost incurred, subject, however, to any prior rights or liens of Stanford or Landlord’s lender.

  (e) Landlord shall give Tenant prompt written notice, with full particulars, of any condemnation proceedings, threats or notices thereof, or offers or negotiations for sale in lieu of condemnation. Tenant shall have the right to participate in such proceedings or negotiations, and to recover, in addition to relocation costs, costs of damage to its property or Tenant Improvements, the fair market value of its leasehold interest. For this purpose, the fair market value of Tenant’s leasehold interest shall be the net present value of the difference, if any, between rent due hereunder and fair market rent during the remainder of the then current term of this Lease (or such lesser period as all or a portion of the Premises may be taken), excluding any unexercised option periods. The discount rate for calculating the value of the leasehold interest shall be the rate explicitly or implicitly used by Landlord and the condemning authority in any agreement or by the court in establishing the award by judgment.

 

19. DEFAULT BY TENANT

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a material breach by Tenant:

 

  (a) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after receipt by Tenant of written notice thereof from Landlord provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required pursuant to Section 1151 of the California Code of Civil Procedure regarding unlawful detainer proceedings;

 

  (b) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of written notice thereof from Landlord; provided,

 

19


however, that if the nature of Tenant’s default is such that it cannot be cured solely by payment of money and that more than thirty (30) days may be reasonably required for such cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period and shall thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion;

 

  (i) the making of any general arrangement or any assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors;

 

  (ii) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition of reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the petition is dismissed within ninety (90) days);

 

  (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets;

 

  (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets.

 

20. LANDLORD’S REMEDIES

 

  (a) In the event of any material breach of this Lease by Tenant, then Landlord in addition to other rights or remedies it may have, shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon fifteen (15) days written notice to Tenant, and also the right, with or without termination of this Lease, of reentry upon and taking possession of the Demised Premises and Landlord may remove all persons and property from the Demised Premises; such property may be removed and stored in any other place in the Building or in any other reasonably secure place for the account of and at the expense and risk of Tenant. Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages which may be caused by the reentry of Landlord and taking possession of the Demised Premises or removing or storing the furniture and property as herein provided and shall save Landlord harmless from any costs or damages occasioned Landlord thereby, and no such reentry shall be considered or be construed to be a forcible entry. Should Landlord elect to reenter, as herein provided, or should it take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, Landlord may either terminate this Lease or, Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet the Demised Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as may be reasonable, with the right to make minor alterations and repairs to the Demised Premises. Rental received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first to the payment of any costs of such reletting including reasonable brokerage and attorney’s fees; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should such rentals received from such reletting during any month be less than one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual rental reserved hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. No such reentry or taking

 

20


possession of the Demised Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant, in which event Tenant’s obligations to Landlord shall forthwith cease, or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

  (b) If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Paragraph 20, Landlord may recover from Tenant:

 

  (i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus

 

  (ii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

 

  (iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus

 

  (iv) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom.

As used in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by allowing interest at the prevailing discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award plus five percent (5%), but not more than the maximum rate permissible by law. As used in subparagraph (iii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus five percent (5%).

 

  (c) In the event of Tenant’s default, Landlord shall also have the right to maintain Tenant’s right to possession whether or not Tenant has abandoned the Premises, and in such event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Tenant’s obligations and to recover Rent as it becomes due.

 

  (d) The failure by Tenant to make any material, undisputed payment of Property Expenses required to be made by Tenant hereunder, within ten (10) business days after written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant, shall constitute a default. In the event of such default, Landlord shall have the remedies in Paragraphs (b) and (c) above and the right to bring an action against the Tenant to collect such sums.

 

21


21. DEFAULT BY LANDLORD

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a material breach by Landlord:

 

  (a) The failure by Landlord to make any payment required to be made by Landlord hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after receipt by Landlord of written notice thereof from Tenant;

 

  (b) The failure by Landlord to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Landlord of written notice thereof from Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s default is such that it cannot be cured solely by payment of money and that more than thirty (30) days may be reasonably required for such cure, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if Landlord shall commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period and shall thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion.

 

22. RIGHT TO CURE LANDLORD’S DEFAULTS

In addition to Tenant’s other rights and remedies, if Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations herein regarding maintenance of the Premises, obtaining insurance, or paying Real Property Taxes, and if such failure continues for thirty (30) days, or fifteen (15) days in the event of roof leaks, after written notice from Tenant to Landlord and any mortgage of Landlord whose name and address is furnished to Tenant in writing, or if Landlord fails to commence such cure within thirty (30) days and to diligently prosecute the same to completion if a longer period is reasonably required in light of the nature of the breach, Tenant may, but shall not be obligated to, cure such breach at Landlord’s expense. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant upon demand for all reasonable expenses incurred by Tenant, together with interest at the rate of two percent (2%) plus the Bank of America prime rate from the date incurred until paid.

 

23. ADDITIONAL SPACE-OPTION

Tenant has a twelve (12) month option from the date this Lease is fully executed, to lease the remaining rentable space of approximately 37,000 square feet (the “Additional Space”), to be constructed in the Complex, provided that during the last three (3) month period of this Lease Landlord may offer space to other tenants subject to Tenant’s election not to exercise its option.

Landlord shall submit to Tenant all offers for the Additional Space executed by the Landlord and other tenant. Tenant shall notify Landlord within thirty (30) days of receipt of such offer of Tenant’s election to exercise or not exercise its option to lease the Additional Space.

If Tenant exercises its option to lease the Additional Space, all the terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply, including preparation of Tenant’s space and Tenant Improvement Allowance of which shall be increased proportionally. Rent for entire

 

22


Premises during the initial term shall be adjusted to reflect the Additional Space taken, and computed at the rate of $1.87 per square foot per month for years one (1) through five (5), inclusive; and $2.05 per square foot per month for years six (6) through ten (10), inclusive. Tenant’s percentage share of Common Area Maintenance and similar costs shall shall be adjusted proportionally to reflect the Additional Space.

 

24. SECOND RIGHT OF OFFER TO PURCHASE

If, at any time during the initial lease term, Landlord intends to sell, transfer or assign its interest in the Premises -independently from the Complex, or the entire Complex (collectively the “Offered Property”), then Landlord shall offer to Tenant as provided in this Paragraph the opportunity to purchase the Offered Property, provided that such right is subject to any rights of Stanford under the Ground Lease. Tenant’s right shall not apply to sales at foreclosure or a deed in lieu of foreclosure, but the purchaser at such sale or receipient of the deed in lieu of foreclosure shall take the Premises subject to Tenant’s rights under this Paragraph. Landlord shall give Tenant notice concurrently with notice to Stanford, and Tenant’s election to purchase the Offered Property shall be void if Stanford purchases the Offered Property. Landlord shall give to Tenant written notice of the terms and conditions upon which it would be willing to sell the Offered Property (“Landlord’s Offer”). Tenant shall have the right to purchase the Offered Property upon the terms and conditions stated in Landlord’s Offer, which Tenant may exercise only by giving written notice to Landlord within sixty (60) days after receipt after receipt of Landlord’s Offer. If Tenant timely exercises its right, it shall purchase the Offered Property on the terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s Offer within forty-five (45) days after the sixty (60) day period. However, if Tenant does not so accept Landlord’s Offer within such sixty (60) day period, then Landlord may sell the Offered Property to any third party on substantially the same terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s Offer for a period of twelve (12) months after the expiration of the sixty (60) day period. If, however, the agreement to sell to a third party is substantially more favorable to the third party buyer than the terms contained in Landlord’s Offer to Tenant, Landlord shall re-offer the Offered Property to Tenant on such modified terms (“Landlord’s Re-Offer”), subject to Stanford’s right of reoffer, as above stated. (For purposes of this paragraph, “substantially more favorable” shall mean a price reduction of three percent (3%) or more, or any change in financing or other economic terms of equivalent effect). If Tenant does not accept Landlord’s Re-Offer by written notice within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of Landlord’s Re-Offer, then Landlord may sell the Offered Property to a third party on substantially the same terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s Re-Offer for a period of twelve (12) months after the expiration of the thirty (30) day period. If Tenant does accept Landlord’s Re-Offer, Tenant shall purchase the Offered Property upon the terms and conditions contained in Landlord’s Re-offer within forty-five (45) days after expiration of the fifteen (15) day period. If an agreement for the purchase and sale of the Offered Property is not fully executed by Landlord and a third party within twelve (12) months after Landlord’s Offer or Landlord’s Re-Offer, as the case may be, has been delivered to Tenant, then any proposed sale of the Offered Property by Landlord shall be deemed a new determination by Landlord to sell and shall be subject to Tenant’s second right of offer in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Paragraph 24. The failure of Tenant to accept Landlord’s Offer or Landlord’s Re-Offer, as the case may be, in writing within the time period stated in this paragraph shall be deemed a rejection by Tenant but such rejection shall not waive Tenant’s rights to the Offered Property on another occasion. Tenant agrees to keep all information set forth in Landlord’s Offer or Landlord’s Re-Offer confidential except as may be

 

23


reasonably required for tax or legal advice or in connection with proposed financing, and further agrees not to interfere with or in any way unreasonably impede Landlord’s negotiations with any third party,

 

25. FIRST RIGHT TO LEASE

If, during the original or any additional term hereof any space (“Available Space”) in the Complex becomes available for lease due to expiration or termination of then existing leases, then Landlord shall offer the space to Tenant in writing at rates and other terms (including term of the lease and tenant improvement allowance) at which Landlord otherwise would offer the space to other parties. Tenant shall have thirty (30) days to notify Landlord whether Tenant desires to lease the Available Space. If Tenant notifies Landlord it desires to lease the Available Space, but Tenant and Landlord are unable to agree on a rental rate, then the rental rate shall be determined pursuant to the procedures for determining the rental rate for the Premises during an Option Period as set forth in Paragraph 14 (b) of this Lease. Other terms and conditions of the lease for the Available space would be substantially the same terms and conditions as this Lease. If Tenant does not notify Landlord that Tenant elects to lease the Available Space, then Landlord may offer such space to third parties. If at any time Landlord anticipates making or receiving an offer or letter of intent for lease of the Available Space, Landlord may notify Tenant of the identity of the potential tenant (“Notice of Potential Tenant”). Tenant shall have twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice to determine in its reasonable judgment and notify Landlord whether the potential tenant so identified is a competitor of Tenant. If Tenant does not notify Landlord within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Notice of Potential Tenant, that the potential tenant is a competitor, any offer to Landlord from that potential tenant shall not be subject to the right of refusal below. If Tenant notifies Landlord that the potential tenant is a competitor or if Landlord has not provided Tenant with Notice of Potential Tenant (with time to respond as provided above), any offer or letter of intent to or from the potential tenant shall be subject to the following right of refusal. Prior to entering into any lease or rental agreement thereafter for the Available Space, Landlord shall first give Tenant written notice (“Notice of Proposed Lease”), with full particulars of the proposed lease or rental agreement (such as an executed letter of intent) and the identity of the proposed tenant. Tenant shall have five (5) days after receipt of the Notice of Proposed Lease to notify Landlord of the determination by its Real Estate Operations group or its Operations Division whether the potential tenant is a competitor and the recommendation whether to exercise the right of refusal. If the Real Estate Operations group or Operations Division recommends not to exercise the right, the right shall be deemed waived. If the recommendation is to exercise the right, Tenant shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Notice of Proposed Lease to elect to lease the Available Space for the same rent and other economic terms proposed and otherwise on the terms and conditions in this Lease, provided that no term or condition of this Lease shall materially effect the economic terms of the proposed lease. If Tenant fails to exercise its right to lease such space by giving Landlord written notice of acceptance within the stated fifteen (15) day period, or by waiving pursuant to the internal recommendation then Landlord may enter into such lease or rental arrangement with the third party identified in the notice on substantially the terms stated in the Notice of Proposed Lease. Failure by Tenant to lease any Available Space when so offered or notified by Landlord shall not relieve Landlord of its obligation under this Paragraph if, as and when other space or the Available Space again becomes available for lease.

26. TENANT’S PARTICIPATION

As a material part of the consideration and as a material inducement for Tenant to enter into this Lease, Landlord hereby agrees that Tenant shall share, at Tenant’s election, at any time during the term of this Lease in the “Net Cash Flow”, “Net Proceeds of Refinancing”, and “Net Proceeds of Sale” (as hereinafter set forth), Tenant’s share thereof being ten percent (10%). If Tenant elects to participate in the “Net Cash FLow”, “Net Proceeds of Refinancing” and “Net Proceeds of Sale” per this Paragraph 26 then the Tenant will agree to adjust rent by increasing rents in accordance with the provisions of subparagraphs 26(a), 26(b) and 26(c) below.

Landlord shall report the following information to Tenant on a quarterly basis: budget, construction or permanent loan balance, and leasing status. Landlord shall notify Tenant of owners meetings at the time such meetings are scheduled; and Tenant shall be permitted to participate on an information basis at each of the owners meetings, as it relates to those topics which are relevant to Tenant’s Participation.

 

  (a). Tenant’s Share of Net Cash Flow

 

  1. Net Cash Flow is defined as the total amount of monies received by Landlord in a calendar year, prorated for partial years, for all tenants (including Tenant) and occupants of the Building deriving from so-called base rent, additional rent, escalations (for operating expenses, utilities and real estate taxes), parking or garage rent or other such fees, and any other income of Landlord from the Building, after subtracting therefrom the amounts actually paid by Landlord including, but not limited to operating expenses, real estate taxes and assessments, professional fees, utilities, allocation to capital reserves, and “debt service” (interest and amortization) on Landlord’s construction loan or permanent financing, and ground rent and deduction of management fee if any, but excluding depreciation. Landlord may, on an annual basis, contribute to reserves for capital improvements or reserves for additional tenant improvements, leasing commissions, or related releasing costs. Landlord agrees that any and all monies determined by Landlord to be placed in reserves shall actually be transferred to an interest-bearing account set aside for that purpose. In the event Landlord refinances the Building as hereinafter provided, then the “debt service” shall be subject to upward or downward adjustment based on the interest rate or constant as applied to the principal amount of each such refinancing.

On the first day of the twelve months next following the Commencement Date of the Term of this Lease, and each successive twelve month period the Tenant shall elect in writing if it will share in the “Net Cash Flow” for that period. If Tenant elects to participate in the Net Cash Flow:

 

25


  (i) During the first five (5) years of the initial lease term, then Tenant agrees to add eight cents ($0.08) per square foot per month to the then current rent, for the relevant twelve (12) month period.

 

  (ii) During the final five (5) years of the initial lease term or any extensions provided, subject to this Paragraph 26, then Tenant agrees to add seven cents ($0.07) per square foot per month to the then current rent, for the relevant twelve (12) month period.

The twelve month period hereinabove set forth shall be the twelve months next following the Commencement Date of the term of this Lease, and each successive twelve month period. In the event the Net Income should be negative, in no event shall Tenant be liable therefor. Within thirty (30) days after the first anniversary of the Commencement Date and each anniversary thereof, Landlord shall submit to Tenant in Stamford, Connecticut (a) an itemized statement, certified by Landlord, subject to audit by Tenant, setting forth in detail for the period (i) Landlord’s total income from the Building, (ii) the Net Income, and (iii) the calculation of Tenant’s share or payment to Landlord (b) a copy of the certified balance sheet of Landlord on a cost basis, and (c) a good check to the order of Tenant, if applicable, for the full amount of Tenant’s share.

  (b). Tenant’s Share of Net Proceeds of Refinancing

If Tenant elects to participate in the “Net Proceeds of Refinancing” then:

 

  (i) Rent shall increase by seven (7) cents ($0.07) per square foot per month for the remaining balance of the then current term, unless rent has previously been increased pursuant to either subparagraph 26 (a) (for the then current twelve (12) month period) or 26 (c); and

 

  (ii) If fewer than ninety-six (96) months remain in the then current term, the term shall be forthwith extended so that a minimum of ninety-six (96) months remain. Rent for periods after expiration of the then-current term shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the then current fair market rental, determined in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 14 (b).

For purposes of this paragraph, “Net Proceeds of Refinancing “ shall be deemed to include the “Net Proceeds of the First Permanent Loan,” the “Net Proceeds of Refinancing the First Permanent Loan,” the “Net Proceeds of Subsequent Refinancing the First Permanent Loan,” and the “Net Proceeds of Additional or Secondary Financing” (all as hereinafter set forth).

The Building or Complex is being financed by Landlord on an interim basis by a so-called Construction Loan made by lender to be determined by Landlord and Tenant in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 26 (e), which Construction Loan will be supplanted by a so-called “First Permanent Loan” with a maturity date to be determined.

 

  1. The Net Proceeds of the First Permanent Loan shall be computed by subtracting from the principal amount of the First Permanent Loan (a) the actual cost of the land, (for purposes of this calculation the actual cost of the land is $16,500,000) (b) the cost of constructing the Building, including indirect costs (c) usual customary closing costs and (d) Landlord’s actual cash equity balance as determined from the capital accounts of the partners, (The following examples assume that, as of this Lease execution Landlord’s actual cash equity balance is zero).

  3. The “Net Proceeds of Subsequent Refinancing the First Permanent Loan” shall be calculated by subtracting from the principal amount of the subsequent Refinancing of the First Permanent Loan (a) the original principal balance of the Refinancing the First Permanent Loan less any amortization of principal thereof, (b) the usual and customary closing costs and (c) Landlord’s actual cash equity balance, increased or decreased for actual cash contributions and distributions respectively. This subparagraph 3 shall apply to any and all subsequent refinancings.

 

Example:

     

Original Principal Amount of Subsequent Refinancing of First Permanent Loan

      $ 45,000,000

In each case above in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3 and 4, Landlord shall notify Tenant at least sixty (60) days in advance of Landlord’s intention to finance or refinance. Tenant shall notify Landlord of its election to participate or not to participate within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s notice. If Tenant elects to participate, then within fifteen (15) days after the closing Landlord shall send to Tenant in Stamford, Connecticut a good check for Tenant’s share together with copies of the Closing Statement, Promissory Note and Mortgage or Deed of Trust. In the event the Net Proceeds of Refinancing should be negative, in no event shall Tenant be liable therefor.

 

  (c). Tenant’s Share of Net Proceeds of Sale

If Tenant elects to participate in the “Net Proceeds of Sale” then:

 

  (i) Rent shall increase by seven (7) cents ($0.07) per square foot per month for the remaining balance of the then current term, unless rent has previously been increased pursuant to either subparagraph 26 (a) (for the then current twelve (12) month period) or 26 (b); and

 

  (ii) If fewer than ninety-six (96) months remain in the then current term, the term shall be forthwith extended so that a minimum of ninety-six (96) months remain. Rent for periods after expiration of the then-current term shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the then current fair market rental, determined in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 14 (b).

 

  1. The “Net Proceeds of Sale” shall be computed by deducting from the gross sale price (a) the original principal balance of the then existing primary financing and of the then existing secondary financing, if any, less any amortization of principal of the then existing primary financing and of the then existing secondary financing, if any, (b) the usual and customary closing costs and (c) the Landlord’s actual cash equity balance, increased or decreased for actual cash contributions and distributions respectively.

In the event the Net Proceeds of Sale should be negative, in no event shall Tenant be liable therefor.

 

  (d) Upon a sale or transfer of the Complex, Tenant’s participation in Net Cash Flow and Refinancing Proceeds shall cease. If Tenant has elected to participate in Refinancing Proceeds or Proceeds of Sale, rent increases shall remain in effect for the remainder of the then current term, including any extension by operation of Paragraphs 26 (b) and 26 (c). If Tenant has elected to participate in Net Cash Flow, but not in Refinancing Proceeds or Proceeds of Sale, any rent increase imposed hereunder shall cease upon sale or transfer of the Complex.

 

  (e) DEVELOPMENT FINANCING

It is the intention of the Landlord to finance the building or complex by a construction loan which will be supplanted by a so-called “Permanent Loan”. Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with a “Loan Package” of information covering the proposed financing at the same time Landlord is providing this

 

30


information to its other perspective Lenders, but no later than June 1, 1990. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the terms of any specific proposals received from such lenders, and Tenant will then have fifteen (15) days to improve the conditions of the proposed financing. If Tenant is successful in obtaining a more favorable loan with the same maturity, origination fees, amortization schedule and security and other terms and conditions then Tenant shall be entitled to a cash payment or payments equivalent to the savings, provided the Loan with more favorable terms and conditions actually closes. In the case of construction financing, Tenant shall receive a cash payment in the amount of the savings upon completion of construction and repayment of the construction loan. In the case of permanent financing, Tenant shall receive quarterly payments equal to the amount of the savings for that period. This Paragraph shall apply to any and all subsequent financings so long as QTC Venture continues to own the property, unless the loan is assumed by the new owner.

 

27. DELIVERY OF EXECUTED LEASE

Landlord shall deliver to Tenant two (2) fully executed originals of this Lease within fifteen (15) days after delivery to Landlord by Tenant of four (4) duplicate originals of this Lease duly executed by Tenant. In the event Landlord shall fail to deliver the fully executed copies of this Lease as herein required, Tenant may, if Tenant so elects, withdraw its execution and delivery of this Lease by giving Landlord written notice of such withdrawal. Upon such withdrawal neither party shall have any rights against the other either hereunder or otherwise except that Landlord shall forthwith return to Tenant any sums which Tenant shall have paid to Landlord prior to such withdrawal.

RIDER

This Rider is made a part of Lease dated March 1, 1990 for space at 3400 Hillview Avenue in the City of Palo Alto, State of California and in the event of conflict between this Rider and the printed portion of said Lease, this Rider shall prevail.

COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE, REAL ESTATE TAXES, INSURANCE COST

Landlord and Tenant each acknowledge that the rent specified in Paragraph 3 does not provide for Real Estate Taxes, Insurance Costs and Common Area Maintenance which may hereafter pertain to the Premises or the Building. Therefore, Tenant agrees to pay or to reimburse Landlord for the Additional Expenses as hereinafter provided.

 

(a) The term “Common Area Maintenance” shall mean the cost of providing water, sewer, parking lot and landscape maintenance (including cleaning, policing, striping of walkways, sidewalks and parking areas, and the keeping of same drained , shrub and flower upkeep and replacement) and trash removal (excluding that trash generated by Tenant), reasonable, actual costs of managing the Common Areas and operating the Complex (which shall exclude Landlord’s overhead and shall not exceed the lesser of one percent (1%) of the rent specified by Paragraph 3 or competitive rates for such services), costs of legally mandated programs and capital costs of replacements and legally mandated improvements amortized over their useful lives in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, plus interest on the unamortized portion of such cost at the Bank of America’s reference rate plus two percent (2%). All expenses to be taken into account pursuant to this paragraph shall be “net” only, and for such purpose shall be deemed reduced by the amount of reimbursement, recoupment, payment, discount or allowance received or receivable by Landlord in connection with such expenses.

 

(b) During the term of this Lease Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for Common Area Maintenance which Landlord agrees to provide in accordance with Paragraph 6 of the Lease. Tenant’s prorata share shall be adjusted during the term of said Lease and any renewals thereof by any increases and decreases in the square feet demised to Tenant and by any increases in the square feet in the Building.

 

(c) The term “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean the annual ad valorem taxes, special assessments and special taxes levied against the Complex, and imposed by any authority having the direct power so to tax, including any city, county, state, or federal government, or any school, agricultural, transportation or environmental control agency, lighting, drainage or other improvement district thereof. All expenses to be taken into account pursuant to this paragraph shall be “net” only, and for such purpose shall be deemed reduced by the amount of reimbursement, recoupment, payment, discount or allowance received or receivable by Landlord in connection with such expenses. The term “Real Estate Taxes” shall not include any parking surcharge, license fee, penalty, inheritance or estate tax, any tax on Landlord’s right to rent or other income from the Building or on Landlord’s business of leasing the Buildings, any penalty for delinquent payment of taxes (unless caused by Tenant), increases in taxes

 

44


arising from additions or improvements to Buildings not occupied by Tenant, or common areas not used by Tenant, or leasehold improvements made by or for other tenants. In the event the Buildings and/or land or Complex is reassessed (which term includes the current assessment being increased without reassessment) and such reassessment is greater than the prior assessment, then Landlord shall (a) promptly notify Tenant thereof, and (b) if in Tenant’s reasonable determination such reassessment is excessive and Tenant so notifies Landlord, Landlord shall diligently protest such reassessment or permit Tenant to do so. In the event Landlord fails so to notify Tenant, or to contest the reassessment or permit Tenant to do so (as the case may be), then Tenant’s obligation to pay its share of Real Estate Taxes shall be computed by multiplying the prior assessment by the then current tax rate. Costs of contesting assessments shall be chargeable to Tenant as a property expense.

In the event Landlord’s Real Estate Tax bill covers buildings in addition to the Buildings that comprise the Premises or land in excess of that required to support the Buildings, parking and common areas for the Building and Landlord is unable to obtain a separate tax assessment of the Premises, parking and common areas, the Landlord shall make a reasonable allocation for the Building, parking and common areas of the total tax assessment made on the several buildings. Landlord shall submit to Tenant sufficient backup data as to the basis for such allocation to permit Tenant to determine the reasonableness of the allocation. In the event that Tenant disputes the reasonableness of either such allocation, Landlord and Tenant agree to submit the determination of such allocation to arbitration before a single arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator shall be an independent Certified Public Accountant, an active member of the California bar, or a retired judge.

(d) The term “Insurance Cost” shall mean premiums for insurance required to be carried by Landlord pursuant to said Lease and the Ground Lease. The term “Insurance Cost” shall specifically exclude increases in premiums for insurance required to be carried by Landlord pursuant to this Lease when such increase is caused by use of the Complex by Landlord or any other tenant of Landlord which is hazardous on account of fire or otherwise, or premiums for any insurance carried by Landlord which is not required to be carried pursuant to this Lease and the Ground Lease. All expenses to be taken into account pursuant to this paragraph shall be “net” only, and for such purpose shall be

 

45


deemed reduced by the amount of reimbursement, recoupment, payment, discount or allowance received or receivable by Landlord in connection with such expenses.

 

(e) The Tenant’s share of Real Estate Taxes and Common Area Maintenance and Insurance Cost shall initially be 81%, which is derived from a fraction using as the numerator the area then under lease by the Tenant, 167,366 square feet, and as the denominator, the total area in the Building(s) projected in the overall project of 206,150 square feet. Tenant’s prorata share shall be adjusted when the actual square footages are determined and during the term of said Lease and any renewals thereof by any increases and decreases in the square feet demised to Tenant and by any increases in the square footage in the Building(s).

 

(f) The Landlord shall deliver to Tenant in Stamford, Connecticut (Attn: RE/GSD Lease Administration), a statement setting forth the amounts of estimated Common Area Maintenance for the then current year, together with an invoice showing the amounts for which reimbursement is due. Copies of the accounting statements used in the calculations and copies of receipted Real Estate Tax bills shall be furnished with the statements and invoice for reimbursement, and upon request by Tenant, Landlord shall submit additional backup data (including copies of receipted bills) to permit Tenant to review such statement. Tenant or any authorized agent of Tenant, shall have the right, upon prior written notice, to audit Landlord’s books at any time with respect to the first full year or any subsequent year. Upon request by Tenant, Landlord shall submit a statement signed by an officer (or partner, as the case may be) of Landlord, setting forth the date on which the Building was assessed as a fully completed building.
