or occupied for any purpose by anyone other than Tenant without the prior written consent of
Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any assignment or
4877-2722-4978 vi Page 10 of 24
sublease without Landlord's prior written consent shall, at Landlord's option, be void and shall
constitute an Event of Default entitling Landlord to terminate this Lease Agreement and to
exercise all other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease Agreement and at law.
10.2. o Rel.ease of Obligation -The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting
hereunder shall not relieve Tenant or any assignee or subtenant from the requirement of
obtaining Landlord's express prior written consent to any other or further assignment or
subletting. No subtenant may assign its sublease, or further sublet its subleased premises,
without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Landlord's sole
discretion. Neither an assignment or subletting nor the collection of rent by Landlord from any
person other than Tenant shall be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions of this Article or
release Tenant from its obligations to comply with this Lease, and Tenant shall remain fully and
primarily liable for all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease.
ARTICLE XI.
DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
11.1. Repair and Restoration; Termination Rights -If all or part of the Premises is damaged by
fire or other casualty, or if the Building is so damaged that access to or use and occupancy of the
Premises is materially impaired, within forty-five (45) days of the date of the damage, Landlord
shall notify Tenant of the estimated time, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, required for repair
or restoration ("Repair Period"). Landlord, at its option, shall either (a) commence to repair the
damage, in which case this Lease Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, or (b)
terminate this Lease Agreement as of the date specified by Landlord in a notice of termination,
and this Lease Agreement shall terminate on the date specified in the notice. If Landlord
proceeds to repair, Tenant shall receive a Rent abatement for that part of the Premises rendered
unusable in the conduct of Tenant's business.
11.2. Damage ear End of Term -Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Article, if the Premises or the Building are damaged during the last twelve (12) months of the
Term, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the option to terminate this Lease Agreement by
giving written notice to the other of the exercise of that option within thirty (30) days after the
damage or destruction, and this Lease Agreement shall terminate as of the date specified in such
notice which date shall not be before the date of such notice nor more than 30 days after the date
of such notice.
11.3. Rent Apportionment -If Landlord or Tenant elects to terminate this Lease Agreement
under this Article XI, Tenant shall pay Rent, prorated on a per diem basis and paid up to the date
of the casualty. If the Premises are wholly untenantable and this Lease Agreement is not
terminated, Rent shall abate on a per diem basis from the date of the casualty until Premises are
ready for occupancy by Tenant or the default is cured. If part of the Premises is untenantable,
Rent shall be prorated on a per diem basis and abated in proportion to the portion of the Premises
which is unusable until the damaged part is ready for Tenant's occupancy. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any damage was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its
employees or agents, then, in such event, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Rent shall not
abate or be diminished.
11 .4. Waiver of Statutory Provisions -The provisions of this Lease Agreement, including those
in this Article XI, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant that applies in
the event of any damage to the Premises, Building, or Property. Tenant, therefore, fully waives
4877-2722-4978 vi Page 11 of24
the provisions of any statute or regulation, including California Civil Code sections 1932(2) and
1933(4), relating to any rights or obligations concerning any such casualty.

alterations, additions or improvements, whether temporary or permanent in character, made in or
upon the Premises, either by Landlord or Tenant, shall be Landlord's property and at the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease Agreement shall remain on the Premises without

or earlier termination of this Lease Agreement with Landlord's written consent, Tenant shall be
deemed, at Landlord's option, to occupy the Premises as a tenant from month-to-month. Except
as provided in the preceding sentence, such month-to-month tenancy shall be on the same terms
and conditions of this Lease Agreement except that any rights or options pertaining to additional
space in the Building contained in this Lease Agreement shall be deemed to be terminated and
shall be inapplicable thereto. Landlord's acceptance of Rent after such holding over with
Landlord's written consent shall not result in any other tenancy or in a renewal of the initial term
of this Lease Agreement. If Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease Agreement without Landlord's written consent, Tenant 's
continued possession shall be on the basis of a tenancy at sufferance.

Tenant's use of the Premises for the Permitted Use; (ii) enter the Premises at reasonable times

room upon occupancy of the room. If any emergency necessitates immediate access to the
Premises, Landlord may use whatever force is necessary to enter the Premises, and any such
entry to the Premises shall not constitute a forcible or unlawful entry into the Premises, a
detainer of the Premises or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof.

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
14.1. Tenant's Default -It shall be an "Event of Default" hereunder if Tenant:

under this Lease Agreement as and when due and such failure continues for five (5)
days following written notice thereof to Tenant by Landlord;

Agreement if the failure continues for ten (10) days after written notice of the failure
to Tenant;

required hereunder and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof to Tenant by Landlord (or if the noncompliance cannot by its nature be cured

within the 30-day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to
completion).
14.2. Remedies on Default -Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord shall have
the right to pursue any one or more of the following remedies in addition to any other remedies
now or later available to Landlord at law or in equity. These remedies are not exclusive but
instead are cumulative.
(a) Continue Lease -Landlord may continue this Lease Agreement in full force and
effect. In such case, so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to
possession, this Lease Agreement will continue in effect and Landlord shall have the
right to collect Rent when due, and may undertake efforts to relet the Premises, or any
part of them, to third parties for Tenant's account. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord
for all reasonable costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises including without
4877-2722-4978 vi Page 13 of 24
limitation, expenses of remodeling the Premises required by the reletting. Reletting
can be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining term of this Lease
Agreement. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Rent due under this Lease Agreement
on the date the Rent is due , less the Rent Landlord receives from any reletting. No
act by Landlord allowed by this Section shall terminate this Lease Agreement unless
Landlord terminates Tenant's right to possession. After an Event of Default and for
as long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises , if
Tenant obtains Landlord's consent, Tenant shall have the right to assign or sublet its
interest in this Lease, but Tenant shall not be released from liability.
(b) Terminat e Leas e -Landlord may terminate this Lease Agreement and Tenant's right
to possession of the Premises at any time following an Event of Default. No act by
Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant shall terminate this Lease. Acts
of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a receiver to
protect Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of
Tenant's right to possession. On termination, Landlord shall have the right to recover
from Tenant all of the following:
(i) The worth, at the time of the award, of any unpaid Rent that had been earned at
the lime of termination of this Lease Agreement;
(ii) The worth , at the time of the award, of the amount of unpaid Rent that would have
been earned after the date of termination of this Lease Agreement until the time
the award exceeds the amount of the unpaid Rent that Tenant proves could have
been reasonably avoided;
(iii) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment
proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform obligations under this Lease
Agreement, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, advertising
expenses, expenses of remodeling the Premises for a new tenant, and any special
concessions made to obtain a new tenant ; and
(iv) Any other amounts, in addition to or in lieu of those listed above that may be
permitted by law.
(c) Rece iv er -Landlord shall have the right to have a receiver appointed to collect Rent.
Neither the filing of a petition for the appointment of a receiver nor the appointment
itself shall constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease Agreement.
14.3. Landlord's Default-Landlord's failure to perform any of its obligations under this Lease
Agreement shall constitute a Landlord Event of Default hereunder if the failure continues for
thirty (30) days after written notice of the failure from Tenant to Landlord. If the required
performance cannot be completed within thirty (30) days, Landlord's failure to perform shall not
constitute a Landlord Event of Default if Landlord undertakes to cure the failure within such
thirty -(30-) day period and diligently and continuously attempts to complete the cure as soon as
reasonably possible. Tenant waives any right to terminate this Lease Agreement and to vacate
the Premises upon Landlord's default under this Lease Agreement. Tenant's sole remedy on
Landlord's default is an action for damages or injunctive or declaratory relief.

liability coverage from time to time (but not more than once each calendar year) and to require

to obtain and maintain similar types and amounts of insurance.
Each insurance policy must include an endorsement to provide that the policy and the coverage
provided shall be primary; that Landlord, although an additional insured, shall nevertheless be
entitled to recovery under such policy for any damage to Landlord by reason of acts or omission
of Tenant; and that any coverage carried by _Landlord shall be noncontributory with respect to

Landlord as long as the insurance is not invalidated by such waiver.
