Premises ("Base Rent"), in advance, on the first day of each calendar month

initially shall be an amount equal to Sixty Nine Thousand Nine Hundred Dollars

<PAGE>
quotient obtained by dividing thirty (30) into the number of remaining in such

without deduction, offset, prior notice, or demand at 635 Emerson Street, Palo

shall designate.
5.2 Increase in Base Rent. Beginning on the thirty first (31st)
month of the Lease Term, the Base Rent shall subject to upward adjustment based
upon increases in the "Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (1984 =
100), in San Francisco-Oakland Metropolitan Area, All Items", published by the
United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (the "CPI" or "CPI
Index"). If the present base of the CPI Index hereinafter changed, the new base
shall be converted to the base now used. If the Bureau of Labor Statistics fails
to publish the CPI Index throughout the Lease Term, the then most similar index
published by the Bureau or by any other branch or department of the U.S.
Government shall be used, and if none is so published, then another index using
the most closely comparable statistics on the purchasing power of the consumer
dollar and published by responsible financial authority shall be used. The
increases shall be calculated as follows:
(a) Adjustment Date Calculation. On the first day of the
---------------------------
thirty-first month following the Commencement Date (the "Adjustment Date") a
calculation shall be made to determine the increase, if any, to be made to the
then Base Rent. Any increase so determined shall be added to the Base Rent for
the balance of the Lease Term. The adjusted Base Rent shall be determined as
follows:
(i) the CPI ("Beginning Index") published immediately
prior to two months before the Commencement Date shall be determined. The CPI
("Adjustment Index") published immediately prior to the two months before the
Adjustment Date shall be determined.
(ii) the change in the CPI shall be determined by
subtracting the Beginning index from the Adjustment Index. The numerical
difference shall be the "Index Change." If the Adjustment Index does not exceed
the Beginning Index, no adjustment shall be made to the Base Rent on the
Adjustment Date and the Base Rent shall not be changed;
(iii) the percentage increase ("Percentage Change") in the
CPI shall be determined by dividing the index Change by the Beginning Index;
(iv) the increase in the Base Rent then shall be
determined by multiplying the Base Rent for the month immediately preceding the
Adjustment Date times the Percentage Change;
- 3 -
<PAGE>
(v) the increase, as determined above, be added to the
Base Rent payable immediately prior to Adjustment Date to determine the new Base
Rent. By way of example: assume the Commencement Date is March 1, 1996 and that
the published immediately prior to January 1996 is 300 and that Base Rent for
March 1, 1996 is $1,000. Further, assume that Adjustment Date is September 1,
1998 and that the CPI immediately prior to July 1998 is 360. The Base Rent for
the period commencing September 1, 1998 shall be determined as follows:
(1) Adjustment Index 360
Beginning Index 300
---
Index Change 60
(2) Index change 60 = 60 divided by 300 = 20%
--
Beginning Index 300
(3) Base Rent $1,000
Percentage Change x .20
--------
Increase $ 200
(4) Base Rent prior to
Adjustment Date $1,000
Increase rent + 200
-------
New Base Rent $1,200
(b) Landlord Calculation. Landlord shall compute the applicable
--------------------
increase, if any, in Base Rent to be paid on an following the Adjustment Date
and shall provide to Tenant a copy o such calculation. Any delay by Landlord in
computing or delivering, the information hereunder shall not relieve Tenant from

delay by Landlord hereunder.

shall be delivered to Landlord to secure the faithful performance of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease. If Tenant fails to pay the Rent promptly when due,
the Security Deposit, at the option of Landlord may be applied to any Rent due
and unpaid. If Tenant violates any of the other terms, covenants and conditions
of this Lease, the Security Deposit may be applied to the extent of the amount
of damages suffered by Landlord as a result of Tenant's default. If Tenant fails
to perform prior to Lease Termination all its obligations on surrender of the
Premises, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, use the Security Deposit
to remove Tenant's alterations, to restore the Premises or to repair or replace
portions of the Premises to fulfill Tenant's obligations under this Lease. The

fines, liabilities, suits, administrative proceedings and costs (including but
not limited to attorneys' fees and consultants' fees and court costs) arising in
connection with any Hazardous Materials released, emitted, discharged, used or
stored by Landlord or its agents, employees, or contractors, on or about the
Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible to make
reasonable investigations if Tenant provides to Landlord reasonable evidence of
the probability of the existence of Hazardous Materials on the Property (except

the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to gain access
to the Premises. Any entry to the Premises by Landlord in accordance with this
Section or any other provision of this Lease under any circumstances shall not
be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer
of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion
thereof nor give Tenant the right to abate the Rentals payable under this Lease.
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, and any other loss occasioned by Landlord's entry to the Premises
as permitted by this Section or any other provision of this Lease.

withheld. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant immediately shall remove any of
Tenant's signs or decorations that are visible from the exterior of the Building

request, Landlord may enter upon the Premises and remove such sign or decoration
and Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand and as Additional Rent, the cost of
such removal including, but not limited to, cost of repairing any damage to the
Building occasioned by such removal. All signs placed on the Premises by Tenant
shall comply with all recorded documents affecting the Premises (as the same may
be amended from time to time) and all Applicable Laws. At Lease Termination,

---------
water, gas, heat, power, electricity, telephone or other communication service,

supplied to or consumed on the Premises, and all taxes, fees, levies or
surcharges therefor. The lack or shortage of any service or utility due to any
- 10 -
<PAGE>
cause (other than the intentional misconduct of Landlord) whatsoever shall not
affect any obligation of Tenant hereunder, and Tenant shall faithfully keep and
observe all the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease and pay all
Rentals due hereunder, all without diminution, credit or deduction. In the event
any utility service to the Premises is interrupted by any act or omission of
Landlord, Landlord shall promptly and diligently proceed to restore such

similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing and any increases, whether from
any increase in rate, increased valuation, change in ownership, or for any other
reason (all collectively called "Tax" or "Taxes") which shall be applicable to
the Premises, shall be assessed, levied or imposed upon or against the Premises,
or shall become due and payable and a lien or charge upon the Premises under or

measured, or based in any manner whatsoever (i) in whole or in part on the
Rentals payable by Tenant under this Lease, other than federal, state or
municipal income taxes imposed upon Landlord, (ii) upon or with respect to the

<PAGE>
forth in this Section. It is the intention of the parties that Landlord shall
not be required to pay any Taxes or any other governmental impositions and
charges of any kind or nature whatsoever. Nothing contained in this Section
shall require Tenant to pay any franchise, estate, inheritance, succession,
income, transfer or excess profits tax imposed upon Landlord.
8.2 Right to Contest. Tenant shall have the right to contest or
----------------
review the amount or validity of any Tax by appropriate legal proceedings (but
which is not to be deemed or construed in any way as relieving, modifying or
extending Tenant's covenant to pay such Tax at the time and in the manner as
provided in this Section). However, as a condition of Tenant's right to contest,
if such contested Tax is not paid before such contest and if the legal
proceedings shall not operate to prevent or stay the collection of the Tax so
contested, Tenant shall, before instituting any such proceeding, protect the
Premises and the interest of Landlord and of the beneficiary of a deed of trust
or the mortgagee of a mortgage affecting the Premises against any lien upon the
Premises by a surety bond, issued by an insurance company acceptable to
Landlord, and in an amount equal to the greater of one and one-half (1-1/2)
times the amount contested or the amount of the contested Tax and the interest
and penalties in connection therewith. Any contest as to the validity or amount
of any Tax, whether before or after payment, shall be made by Tenant in Tenant's
own name, or, if required by law, in the name of Landlord or both Landlord and
Tenant. Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and
against any and all costs or expenses, including attorneys' fees, in connection
with any such proceedings brought by Tenant, whether in its own name or not.
Tenant shall be entitled to retain any refund of any such contested Tax and
penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by Tenant. Nothing contained
herein shall be construed as affecting or limiting Landlord's right to contest
any Tax at Landlord's expense.
8.3 Impound Account. If any beneficiary of any security instrument
---------------
encumbering the Premises requires Landlord to impound Taxes or insurance
premiums for the Premises on a periodic basis during the Lease Term, Tenant, on
notice from Landlord indicating this requirement, shall pay to Landlord, in lieu
of direct payments to the taxing authority or insurer to the extent of the
amount required to be impounded only, the amounts required to be impounded on a
periodic basis in accordance with the beneficiary's requirements, which amounts
shall not exceed the amount of Taxes or insurance premiums due for the Premises.
Landlord shall impound such amounts received from Tenant in accordance with the
requirements of the beneficiary.
8.4 General. During any partial tax fiscal year(s) within the
-------
Lease Term, Taxes shall be prorated according to the ratio which the number of
days Tenant occupies the Premises during such year bears to three hundred sixty-
five (365); provided, for the first Lease Year any Taxes and any increase in
Taxes resulting
- 12 -
<PAGE>
from Landlord's Improvements or Tenant's Improvements shall be prorated from the
Rent Commencement Date to the next June 30. Promptly following request by
Landlord, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord proof satisfactory to Landlord
evidencing payment of Taxes. If by law any Tax is payable or may, at the option
of the taxpayer, be paid in installments, Tenant may, whether or not interest
shall accrue on the unpaid balance thereof, pay the same, and any accrued
interest on any unpaid balance thereof, in installments as each installment
becomes due and payable, but in any event, before any fine, penalty, interest or
cost may be added thereto for non-payment of any installment or interest.

liability insurance policy maintained by Tenant shall specifically insure
- 13 -
<PAGE>
Tenant's performance of the indemnity agreement contained below, although
Tenant's indemnity obligations shall not be limited to the amount of any
insurance required of or carried by Tenant under this Section. The preceding
notwithstanding, so long as Applied Materials, Inc. is the party in occupancy of
the Premises, Tenant shall not be required to specifically insure its
performance of Tenant's indemnity obligations, but the lack of insurance shall
in no way limit Tenant's indemnity obligations. The limits specified above are
the minimum amounts required by Landlord, and may be revised by Landlord in the
event Tenant gives notice of exercise of its option to extend the term of this
Lease; provided, however, within thirty (30) days after receiving notice of such
exercise, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the minimum amount of insurance
required of Tenant during the Extended Term, which shall not exceed, the level
of coverage commonly carried by similar businesses in similar facilities.

Premises or Landlord's activities on the Premises to the extent such claim
arises from Landlord's negligence or intentional misconduct. The policy shall
have a combined single limit of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) and include a
standard ISO extended liability endorsement. The liability insurance policy may
specifically insure Landlord's performance or the indemnity agreement contained
below, although Landlord's indemnity obligations shall not be limited to the
amount of any insurance required of or carried by Landlord under this section.
The limits specified above shall be revised to the extent that the amount
required of Tenant under
- 14 -
<PAGE>
Section 9.1(c) should be increased by Landlord. The premium for such insurance

be due within fifteen (15) days after invoice therefor. The premium -for such
liability insurance shall be subject to the provisions of Section 8.3 and shall
-----------
be prorated for partial years in the same
manner as Taxes under Section 8.4.

be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. In addition, Landlord may recover
from Tenant, and Tenant agrees to pay as Additional Rent to Landlord, any and
all reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) and damages which Landlord
may have sustained by reason of the failure of Tenant to obtain and maintain
such insurance, it being expressly declared that the expenses and damages of
Landlord shall not be limited to the amount of premiums thereon; or
9.6 Waiver of Subrogation Rights. Landlord and Tenant each, on
----------------------------
behalf of itself and all persons and parties claiming under or through it,
including without limitation its insurance carrier (s) , waive any right of
recovery or claim against the other for any damage to or destruction of any
property located in or about the Premises which results from or arises out of
any casualty or event insured by any insurance policy carried by such waiving
party, regardless of the cause or origin of such casualty or event, including
without limitation, the negligence of Tenant or Landlord. Both parties shall
obtain a waiver of subrogation rights from their insurers providing insurance
whereby such insurers waive their entire right of recovery against the other
party or its insurers for loss or damage arising out of or incident to any
insured perils, whether due to the negligence of the Landlord, Tenant or their
agents and regardless of cause or origin.
10. Indemnity and Exculpation.
-------------------------
10.1 Indemnification of Landlord. Tenant shall defend, indemnify,
---------------------------

investigation costs or liabilities on account of, or arising out of the use,

or liabilities on account of any bodily injury or damage to property of third
parties, to the extent such bodily injury results from Landlord's negligence or
willful misconduct with regard to the Premises.
11. Damage or Destruction.

<PAGE>
copies of invoices, vouchers, statements, affidavits and/or other documents
received by Landlord from the party requesting the payments covered by such
statement. If Tenant does not deliver such notice within such ten (10) day

difference to Landlord in cash upon notification by Landlord of the final cost.
If the cost of rebuilding or restoring is less than the estimated cost of such
work, Tenant shall be entitled to a refund of the difference upon completion of
the rebuilding or restoring and determination of final cost, provided, in no

pursuant to any provisions of this Section 11, then all insurance proceeds
payable pursuant to the policies maintained under Sections 9.1(a) and 9.1(c)

deed of trust or mortgage affecting the Premises, Landlord and Tenant, as their
interests appear. Such insurance proceeds payable to Landlord above shall not
include proceeds from policies maintained or Tenant's Personal Property located
in the Premises. Landlord and Tenant, each, shall have the right to terminate

Landlord may not terminate this Lease pursuant to this clause if Tenant, within
thirty (30) days following the damage, exercises any option it then has under
this Lease to extend the Lease Term; or (ii) the Building is damaged at any time
by a casualty not insured against; or (iii) seventy-five percent (75%) or more

reasonable opinion of Landlord's contractor, the damage or destruction cannot be
repaired within one hundred fifty (150) following the date of damage or
destruction.

---------------------------------------
in Section 11 occurs and results in a right in either party to terminate this
----------
Lease, the party who has the right to terminate this Lease may exercise its
right only by delivering to the other party written notice of termination within
sixty (60) days following the damage or destruction. The failure of a party to

a waiver of the right of termination. The foregoing notwithstanding, any
termination of the Lease as a result of insufficient insurance proceeds shall be
governed by Section 11.2.

-----------------------------

--------------
against Landlord for compensation for inconvenience or loss of business during
any period of repair or reconstruction.

give Landlord written notice of such lien or action within three (3) days after
Tenant receives notice of the filing of the lien or the commencement of the
action. In the event that Tenant shall not, within twenty (20) days following

Landlord, as Additional Rent, for any and all costs thereof. Tenant shall, at
its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain the landscaping of the grounds of
the Premises in an attractive, slightly and well-kept condition. A copy of
Tenant's written contract for landscape maintenance services shall be delivered
to Landlord within five (5) days after Landlord's request. In the event Tenant

parties shall consult to determine the most appropriate manner to replace the
roof. The roof replacement shall be treated as a capital improvement, the cost
of which shall be paid initially by Landlord. The cost of the roof replacement
shall be amortized over the useful life of the roof, according to generally
accepted accounting principles using straight line amortization and an interest
ratio equal to ten percent (10%), and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord monthly as
additional rent for the monthly amortized cost of the roof.
13.3 Waiver of Civil Code Remedies. Tenant waives the benefits of
-----------------------------
any statute now or hereafter in effect (including without limitation the
provisions of subsection 1 of Section 1932 and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the
Civil Code of California) which would otherwise afford Tenant the right to make
repairs at Landlord's expense (or to deduct the cost of such repairs from
Rentals due hereunder) or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord's failure
to keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair. Tenant acknowledges
and agrees that Tenant's obligation to repair and maintain the Premises is part
of the consideration for Landlord's renting the Premises to Tenant.

reasonable satisfaction of Landlord. Upon demand Tenant shall reimburse Landlord
for the cost of any and all damage other than normal wear and tear to the
Premises. If the Premises are not surrendered at the Lease Termination as
required by this Section, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against loss or
liability resulting from Tenant's failure to comply with the provisions of this
Section, including, without limitation, any losses suffered by Landlord due to
lost opportunities to lease the Premises to succeeding tenants. Landlord may,
without abatement of Rentals, enter the Premises for alteration, renovation, or
decoration during the last thirty (30) days of the Lease Term if Tenant has

prior to Lease Termination, Tenant shall arrange with Landlord a mutually
convenient date and time for a "pre-termination" inspection and Tenant and

that time, all alterations, improvements or additions made by Tenant that are to
be removed by Tenant prior to Lease Termination. Further, Landlord shall
indicate any other items that Landlord believes must be
- 21 -
<PAGE>
repaired, replaced or restored, pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, by
Tenant prior to Lease Termination. Landlord's failure to include any item on any
list provided to Tenant at or following the pre-termination inspection shall not
be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to require full compliance with all Lease
provisions regarding Lease Termination and surrender of Premises.

--------------------------------------
improvements or additions made to the Premises by Tenant shall at Lease
Termination become the property of Landlord and remain upon and be surrendered
with the Premises; provided, at Landlord's option, Landlord may require Tenant
