  • Commercial Lease. Start a state-specific lease for the rental of commercial property. Specify the term and rent due, as well as whether the landlord or tenant is responsible for property taxes, insurance, and maintenance and repairs.
  • Commercial Sublease. When a tenant vacates commercial property before the lease term has expired, it may be able to rent the premises to a third party. The tenant would be the sublessor and the third party would be the sublessee. Besides preparing a sublease, both parties will want to review the provisions for assignment or subletting in the original lease agreement between the landlord and the sublessor.
  • Sublease Agreement. Tenants of residential property should prepare a sublease agreement if they are seeking to sublease a room or the entire apartment or house to a third party. All parties should review the original lease agreement to see if there are any restrictions on subletting or assigning the premises.
  • Triple Net Lease. Triple net leases are a type of commercial leases where the tenant has to pay for property taxes, insurance, utilities, and maintenance, in addition to the monthly rent.
  • Office Space Lease. When renting an office space, tenants should understand the amount of the rent and duration of the lease. Other important terms include whether the space can be subleased, which parties are responsible for maintenance, and whether any furniture and furnishings will be provided.

                                INDUSTRIAL LEASE

         THIS INDUSTRIAL LEASE (this "Lease"), dated as of the Effective Date,
is made and entered into by and between ARDENSTONE LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("Landlord"), and PROTEIN DESIGN LABS, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("Tenant"), on the terms and conditions set forth below:

1.       PREMISES.

         1.1 Premises.  Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby
leases from Landlord the Premises as shown on Exhibits A and B-1 and B-2.

         1.2 Rentable Square Footage. Landlord's Architect shall determine the
rentable square footage for the Buildings upon Substantial Completion of the
Building Shells based on the working drawings and as-built drawings for the
Buildings. (The terms "Landlord's Architect," "Building Shells" and "Substantial
Completion" are each defined in Exhibit C.) Upon Substantial Completion of the
Building Shells, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant Landlord's Architect's written
determination of the rentable square footage of the Buildings. The good faith
determination by Landlord's Architect of the rentable square footage of the
Buildings shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant for all purposes under this
Lease.

         1.3 Reserved Rights. Landlord reserves the right to enter the Premises
upon reasonable notice to Tenant (except in case of an emergency in which event
no prior notice shall be required) and/or to undertake the following: inspect
the Premises and/or the performance by Tenant of the terms and conditions
hereof; change the boundary lines of the Property; install, use, maintain,
repair, alter, relocate or replace any pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, equipment
and other facilities in the Buildings or on the Property; grant easements on the
Property; change the name of the Buildings and/or the Property; and show the
Premises to prospective lenders, purchasers and tenants (provided that


                                       1.
<PAGE>   8
Landlord's right to show the Premises to prospective tenants shall be limited to
the last twelve (12) months thereof and then only to the extent that Landlord
has not received a Tenant's Extension Notice from Tenant for any Extension Term
then available pursuant to the terms of this Lease. In conducting all of
Landlord's activities on the Premises pursuant to this Section 1.3, (i) Landlord
agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with any security
precautions reasonably established by Tenant with respect to the Premises, (ii)
Landlord agrees to use Landlord's commercially reasonable efforts to minimize
Landlord's disruption to Tenant's business conducted in the Premises, and (iii)
Landlord shall not alter, relocate or replace Tenant's personal property or
Tenant Improvements funded by Tenant and located on the Premises except as is
necessary to perform Landlord's work therein and in such event shall return
Tenant's personal property or Tenant Improvements to the as new condition in
which it existed prior to such Landlord work as is practicable and is permitted
by law.

2.       TERM.

         2.1 Commencement Date. The Term shall commence (the "Commencement
Date") on the date on which Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to
Tenant in Delivery Condition (as defined in Exhibit C), and shall continue in
full force and effect for the period of time specified as the Term or until this
Lease is terminated as otherwise provided herein. Landlord shall arrange for the
construction of the Base Building Work (as defined in Exhibit C) in accordance
with and subject to the terms of the Work Letter.

         2.2      Failure to Deliver Possession.

                  2.2.1 Termination Right. If Landlord has not delivered
possession of the Premises to Tenant in Delivery Condition on or prior to the
Estimated Shell Delivery Date, this Lease shall remain in effect and Landlord
shall not be subject to any liability therefor; provided, however, if Landlord
has not delivered to Tenant the Premises in Delivery Condition by June 1, 1998
(the "Ultimate Delivery Date"), Tenant may terminate this Lease by written
notice to Landlord at any time prior to the date


                                       2.
<PAGE>   9

on which Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant in Delivery Condition.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Ultimate Delivery Date shall be extended one
(1) day for each day Landlord is delayed in completing the Base Building Work or
delivering possession of the Premises to Tenant in Delivery Condition as a
result of Tenant Delays (as defined in Exhibit C).

                  2.2.2 Notice. If Landlord reasonably determines at any time
prior to the Commencement Date that Landlord will not be able to deliver
possession of the Premises to Tenant in Delivery Condition by the Ultimate
Delivery Date (as such date may have been extended by Tenant Delays), Landlord
shall notify Tenant in writing (the "New Estimated Shell Delivery Date Notice")
of the date on which Landlord reasonably expects to deliver possession of the
Premises to Tenant in Delivery Condition (the "New Estimated Shell Delivery
Date"). Tenant shall have twenty (20) days after Tenant's receipt of the New
Estimated Shell Delivery Date Notice to terminate this Lease by written notice
to Landlord. If Tenant fails to exercise its right to terminate this Lease
within the twenty (20) day period, then the Ultimate Delivery Date for all
purposes under this Lease shall be the New Estimated Shell Delivery Date
(subject to further extension due to Tenant Delays as provided above).

                  2.2.3 Tenant Improvements. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Section 2.2, if Tenant or Tenant's Contractor (as defined
in Exhibit C) commences any of the Tenant Improvement Work in the Building or
constructs any Tenant Improvements in the Building prior to the Commencement
Date, Tenant's right to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 2.2 shall
terminate and be of no further force or effect.

         2.3 No Representations. Tenant has determined that the Premises are
acceptable for Tenant's use and acknowledges that except as set forth in this
Section 2.3, Landlord has made no representations or warranties in connection
with the physical condition of the Premises or Tenant's use of the same upon
which Tenant has relied directly or indirectly for any purpose. Landlord
represents and warrants to Tenant that Landlord shall obtain all of the
necessary permits in order to construct the


                                       3.
<PAGE>   10
Base Building Work, and the Base Building Work shall be constructed in
accordance with all such applicable governmental permits and in accordance with
Exhibit C.

         2.4 Commencement Date Memorandum. Tenant shall, upon demand after the
Commencement Date, execute and deliver to Landlord a Commencement Date
Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D acknowledging (i) the
Commencement Date, (ii) the total rentable square footage of the Buildings (as
determined by Landlord's Architect in accordance with the terms of Section 1.2),
(iii) the initial Base Rent, and (iv) Tenant's acceptance of the Premises.

         2.5 Early Entry. Upon the execution and delivery of this Lease,
provided that Tenant is not in default hereunder, Tenant may, at Tenant's sole
risk and cost, enter upon the Premises prior to the Commencement Date for the
purpose of installing Tenant improvements, fixtures, furniture, laboratory
equipment, computer equipment, telephone lines and other communications
equipment, low voltage data wiring and personal property; provided, however, (i)
Tenant shall comply with all the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease,
except for Tenant's obligations to pay Base Rent, Operating Expenses or Real
Property Taxes, (ii) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and its
officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, agents and employees from
any loss, expense, liability or other damages arising out of Tenant's
activities; (iii) Tenant shall provide evidence of insurance satisfactory to
Landlord; (iv) Tenant shall pay all utility charges associated with such
activities and (v) Tenant shall not interfere with the construction of the
Building Shells or the Parking Lot (as defined in Exhibit C).

3.       RENT.

         3.1 Base Rent. Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and continuing
on the first day of each month thereafter during the Term, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, at such address as Landlord shall from time to time designate in
writing to Tenant for the payment of Rent (defined below), the Base Rent in the
amount set forth in the Monthly Base Rent Table below. Tenant shall pay the Base
Rent to Landlord without notice, demand,


                                       4.
<PAGE>   11
offset or deduction. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of Eighty-Two
Thousand Six Hundred Twenty Dollars ($82,620.00) upon execution of this Lease to
be applied to Tenant's initial obligation to pay Base Rent to Landlord
hereunder. If the Rent Commencement Date (defined in Section 3.3) occurs on a
date other than the first day of a month or the Term ends on a date other than
the last day of a month, the amount of Base Rent due on the Rent Commencement
Date or first day of the last month of the Term shall be a pro rata portion of
Base Rent, prorated on a per diem basis with respect to the portion of the month
within the Term. All amounts other than Base Rent which Tenant is obligated to
pay to Landlord under this Lease shall be deemed to be additional rent
hereunder, whether or not such amounts are designated "additional rent." The
term "Rent" means the Base Rent and all additional rent payable hereunder.

                                            Phase 1 Construction Period
                                            (defined in Exhibit C) as determined
                                            by Landlord's Architect   
                                            or (B) seventy-five percent
                                            (75%) of the total rentable
                                            square footage of the Buildings.

adjustment pursuant to Section 3.2)

         3.2 Adjustments in Base Rent. The monthly Base Rent shall


                                      5.
<PAGE>   12
be increased on the first day of the thirteenth (13th) full calendar month after
the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter on each anniversary of such date
during the Term by an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the monthly Base
Rent then in effect.

         3.3  Rent Commencement Date.  Tenant's obligation to pay Base Rent
under this Lease shall commence on (the "Rent Commencement Date") the ninetieth
(90th) day after the Commencement Date.

         3.4 Late Charge and Interest. The late payment of any Rent will cause
Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection
costs and processing and accounting expenses and increased debt service. If
Landlord has not received any installment of Rent within five (5) days after
Tenant's receipt of written notice of delinquency (the "Delinquency Notice"),
Tenant shall pay a late charge of ten percent (10%) of the delinquent amount,
which is agreed to represent a reasonable estimate of the costs incurred by
Landlord; provided that if during the preceding twelve (12) months Landlord has
delivered to Tenant two (2) or more Delinquency Notices, then Tenant shall be
obligated to pay the late charge described herein if Tenant fails to pay any
installment of Rent within five (5) days after such amount is due, without the
need for a Delinquency Notice. In addition, all such delinquent amounts shall
bear interest from the date such amount was due until paid in full at a rate per
annum (the "Applicable Interest Rate") equal to the greater of (a) five percent
(5%) per annum plus the then federal discount rate on advances to member banks
in effect at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco on the twenty-fifth
(25th) day of the month preceding the date of this Lease or (b) ten percent
(10%); provided, in no event shall the Applicable Interest Rate exceed the
maximum interest rate permitted by law which may be charged under such
circumstances. Landlord and Tenant recognize that the damage which Landlord
shall suffer as a result of Tenant's failure to pay such amounts is difficult to
ascertain and said late charge and interest are the best estimate of the damage
which Landlord shall suffer in the event of late payment.

         3.5 Security Deposit. Upon the execution of this Lease,


                                       6.
<PAGE>   13
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord cash in the amount of One Hundred Fifty-Two
Thousand Four Hundred Eighty-Seven and 20/100 Dollars ($152,487.20) as security
(the "Security Deposit") for the performance by Tenant of its obligations under
this Lease. Landlord may use and commingle the Security Deposit with other funds
of Landlord. If Tenant fails to perform any of Tenant's obligations hereunder
constituting an Event of Default under Section 15.1, Landlord may, but without
obligation, apply all or any portion of the Security Deposit toward fulfillment
of Tenant's unperformed obligations. If Landlord does so apply any portion of
the Security Deposit, Tenant shall within five (5) days of Landlord's request
thereafter immediately pay Landlord sufficient cash to restore the Security
Deposit to the full original amount. The Security Deposit shall not bear
interest. If Landlord transfers the Premises during the Term hereof, Landlord
shall pay the Security Deposit to any transferee of Landlord's interest in
conformity with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 and/or
any successor statute, in which event Landlord will be released from all
liability for the return of the Security Deposit. At the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, Landlord shall deliver the Security Deposit or so
much thereof as has not been used to cure an Event of Default by Tenant
hereunder to Tenant within thirty (30) days of such expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease.

4.       UTILITIES. Tenant shall pay all charges for heat, water, gas,
electricity and any other utilities supplied to the Premises. Landlord shall not
be liable to Tenant for interruption in or curtailment of any utility service,
nor shall any such interruption or curtailment constitute constructive eviction
or grounds for rental abatement.

5.       TAXES

         5.1 Real Property Taxes. Commencing on the Commencement Date and ending
on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Landlord shall provide
Tenant with copies of the Real Property Tax bills received from the relevant
taxing authority and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Real Property Taxes
described in each such bill no more than thirty (30) days prior


                                       7.
<PAGE>   14
to the date such Real Property Taxes would become delinquent if not paid.

         5.2 Definition of Real Property Taxes. The term "Real Property Taxes"
shall include the following: all real property taxes, possessory interest taxes,
business or license taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such taxes or

imposed by any public authority upon the Premises (or any real property
comprising any portion thereof) or its operations, together with all taxes,
assessments or other fees imposed by any public authority upon or measured by
any Rent or other charges payable hereunder, including any gross income tax or

with respect to or by reason of the development, possession, leasing, operation,
management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the
Premises or any portion thereof, or upon this transaction or any document to
which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest in the Premises,
together with any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax
previously included within the aforesaid definition or any additional tax the
nature of which was previously included within the aforesaid definition,
together with the costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) of challenging
any of the foregoing or seeking the reduction in or abatement, redemption or
return of any of the foregoing, but only to the extent any such reduction,
abatement, redemption or return is actually received by Landlord. Nothing
contained in this Lease shall require Tenant to pay any franchise, corporate,
estate or inheritance tax of Landlord, or any income, profits or revenue tax or
charge upon the income of Landlord.

         5.3 Personal Property Taxes. Prior to delinquency, Tenant shall pay all
taxes and assessments levied upon trade fixtures, alterations, additions,
improvements, inventories and other


                                       8.
<PAGE>   15
personal property located and/or installed on the Premises by Tenant; and Tenant
shall provide Landlord copies of receipts for payment of all such taxes and
assessments. To the extent any such taxes are not separately assessed or billed
to Tenant, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof as invoiced by Landlord, but in
no event more than thirty (30) days prior to the date such taxes would become
delinquent if not paid.

6.      OPERATING EXPENSES

         6.1 Operating Expenses.  Commencing on the Commencement Date and
ending on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay

insurance exceeds the amount of one month's Base Rent then due hereunder, Tenant
shall be obligated to pay only the amount equal to one month's Base Rent then
due hereunder as a lump sum payment, and the remaining portion, together with
interest thereon at the cost of funds then available to Landlord, shall be
amortized over the remaining Term of the Lease and shall be paid in equal

Rent is due hereunder); (d) an administrative fee to Landlord for accounting and

the extent such contracts are not entered into by Tenant pursuant to the terms
of Section 9.1 hereof; (f) capital replacements or improvements made to or

amortized cost coming due during the Term of this Lease and any extension
thereof shall be reimbursed to Landlord at the same time and in the same manner
as other Operating Expenses, together with interest on the unamortized balance
at the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event more than the maximum rate

to the contrary contained in the Lease, Operating Expenses shall not include any

                  Expenses);

                                       10.

                  obligations hereunder, provided that Landlord has been given
                  written notice of such breach and a reasonable opportunity to
                  cure such breach if Tenant is aware of such breach; or

         (q)      Real Property Taxes, which are instead reimbursed by Tenant to
                  Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section 5 hereof.

7.       ESTIMATED EXPENSES; LANDLORD'S INSURANCE PREMIUMS.

         7.1 Payment. The term "Estimated Expenses" for any particular year
shall mean Landlord's estimate of Operating Expenses (other than the premium(s)
for insurance obtained by Landlord pursuant to this Lease ("Landlord's Insurance
Premiums")) for a calendar year. On or prior to the Commencement Date (or as
soon thereafter as is reasonably practical) and on or about the last month of
each calendar year, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of the Estimated Expenses
for the ensuing calendar year. Tenant shall pay the Estimated Expenses (together
with installments of Base Rent) in monthly installments on the first day of each
calendar month during such year. If at any time Landlord determines that
Operating Expenses (other than Landlord's Insurance Premiums) are projected to
vary from the then Estimated Expenses by more than five percent (5%), Landlord



                                       12.
<PAGE>   19
may, by notice to Tenant, revise the Estimated Expenses, and Tenant's monthly
installments for the remainder of the year shall be adjusted so that by the end
of the calendar year Tenant has paid to Landlord the revised estimate for the
year. Landlord shall bill Tenant for Landlord's Insurance Premiums on the same
basis as Landlord is billed for such insurance premiums by Landlord's insurance
carriers (e.g., on an annual or semi-annual basis), and Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the amount of Landlord's Insurance Premiums not less than thirty (30)
days prior to the date such insurance premiums are due and payable.

         7.2 Adjustment. The term "Adjustment" shall mean the difference between
Estimated Expenses and the actual Operating Expenses (other than Landlord's
Insurance Premiums) for a calendar year. Within ninety (90) days after the end
of each calendar year, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practical,
Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of actual Operating Expenses for
the prior calendar year, together with substantiating documentation, accompanied
by a computation of the Adjustment. If Tenant's payments are less than the
actual amount of Operating Expenses (other than Landlord's Insurance Premiums),
then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference within twenty (20) days after
receipt of Landlord's statement. If Tenant's payments exceed the actual amount
of Operating Expenses (other than Landlord's Insurance Premiums), then (provided
that no Event of Default exists then) Landlord shall credit such amount to the
next installment(s) of Estimated Expenses and/or Rent due or, if this Lease has
expired or terminated as of the determination of such excess, such excess shall
be paid to Tenant concurrently with the delivery of the statement of such excess
to Tenant.

         7.3 Audit Rights. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the
right to audit the applicable records of Landlord not more than once in any
twelve (12) month period to confirm that the charges billed to Tenant under this
Lease are proper and conform to the provisions of this Lease. Such right shall
be exercisable by Tenant within sixty (60) days after Tenant's receipt of
Landlord's annual statement of such charges. Landlord shall cooperate with
Tenant in providing Tenant reasonable access to Landlord's books and records
during normal business hours to enable Tenant to audit Landlord's books and
records as they


                                       13.
<PAGE>   20
relate to any costs or expenses passed through to Tenant pursuant to any
provisions of this Lease. If the audit discloses any overpayment on the part of
Tenant, then Tenant shall be entitled to a credit on the next succeeding
installment of Rent for an amount equal to the overcharge plus interest on the
amount of such overcharge from the date on which same was paid by Tenant until
the date refunded by Landlord at the Applicable Interest Rate, and such credit
shall be extended to succeeding installments of Rent in the event such
overcharge exceeds the amount of the next succeeding such installment. If the
audit discloses any underpayment on the part of Tenant, then Tenant shall pay
Landlord within ten (10) days of request therefor an amount equal to the
undercharge. If the term of this Lease has expired or been earlier terminated,
then Tenant shall be entitled to a refund of such excess from Landlord within
thirty (30) days after such date of expiration or earlier termination.

8.       INSURANCE.

         8.1 Landlord. Landlord shall maintain "Special Form" property

                  8.2.6  Additional Insurance.  Any such other insurance as
Landlord or Landlord's lender may reasonably require.

         8.3      General.

                  8.3.1 Insurance Companies. Insurance required to be maintained
by Tenant and Landlord shall be written by companies licensed to do business in
California and having a "General Policyholders Rating" of at least A:X or better
(or such higher rating as may be required by a lender having a lien on the
Premises) as set forth in the most current issue of "Best's Insurance Guide" or
"Best's Key Rating Guide."

                  8.3.2 Increased Coverage. Landlord, upon written notice to
Tenant, may require Tenant to increase the amount of any insurance coverage
maintained by Tenant under Section 8.2, but no more than once every three (3)
years, and then only to amounts customarily required by landlords of similar
buildings in Alameda and Santa Clara counties.

                  8.3.3 Certificates of Insurance. Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord certificates of insurance with the Additional Insured Endorsement and
the Primary Insurance Endorsement(s) attached for all insurance required to be
maintained by Tenant, no later than seven (7) days prior to the date of

this Lease (except in the case of cancellation for nonpayment of premium in
which case cancellation shall not take effect until at least (10) days' notice
has been given to Landlord). If Tenant fails to maintain any insurance required

said failure.

                  8.3.4 Additional Insureds. Landlord, any property management

<PAGE>   23
party designated by Landlord shall be named as additional insureds under all of
the policies required by Section 8.2.1. The policies required under Section
8.2.1 shall provide for severability of interest.

                  8.3.5 Primary Coverage. All insurance to be maintained by
Tenant shall, except for workers' compensation and employer's liability
insurance, be primary, without right of contribution from insurance of Landlord.
Any umbrella liability policy or excess liability policy (which shall be in
"following form") shall provide that if the underlying aggregate is exhausted,
the excess coverage will drop down as primary insurance. The limits of insurance
maintained by Tenant shall not limit Tenant's liability under this Lease.

                  8.3.6 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant waive any
right to recover against each other for claims for damages to their respective
property to the extent such claims or damages are covered by insurance
maintained by Landlord or Tenant or which Landlord or Tenant, as relevant, is
required to maintain pursuant to the terms of Section 8 of this Lease. This
provision is intended to waive fully, and for the benefit of Landlord, any
rights and/or claims which might give rise to a right of subrogation in favor of
any insurance carrier. The coverage obtained by Tenant pursuant to this Lease
shall include, without limitation, a waiver of subrogation endorsement. In the
event that the terms of this Section 8.3.6 contradict the terms of any other
section of this Lease or the Work Letter, the terms of this Section 8.3.6 shall
govern.

         8.4 Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, protect and defend by counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord's
officers, directors, shareholders, employees, partners, members, lenders and
successors and assigns from and against any and all claims arising from (i)
Tenant's use of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant's business or any activity,
work or things done, permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises
and (ii) any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant's
part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, arising from any negligence
of Tenant or any of Tenant's agents, contractors or employees,


                                       17.
<PAGE>   24
including all reasonable costs, attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities
incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought
thereon; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any claims to the extent
caused by: (a) the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any of
Landlord's agents, employees or contractors, or (b) any default by Landlord in
the performance of any obligation of Landlord under this Lease, provided that,
to the extent that Tenant is aware of such default, Tenant has given Landlord
written notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure such default. Tenant, as a
material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of
damage to property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises arising
from any cause and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against
Landlord except to the extent such claims are caused by the gross negligence or
wilful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's agents, employees or contractors.

         8.5 Exemption of Landlord from Liability. Tenant hereby agrees that
Landlord shall not be liable for injury to Tenant's business or any loss of
income therefrom or for damage to the property of Tenant, Tenant's employees,
invitees or customers, or any other person in or about the Premises, nor shall
Landlord be liable for injury to the person of Tenant or Tenant's employees,
agents or contractors, whether such damage or injury is caused by fire, steam,
electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage or other defects
of sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting
fixtures, or from any other cause, except to the extent such claims are caused
by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's agents,
employees or contractors, whether said damage or injury results from conditions
arising upon the Premises or from other sources or places, and regardless of
whether the cause of such damage or injury or the means of repairing the same is
inaccessible to Tenant.

 ..       REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

         9.1 Tenant. Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall keep and
maintain the Premises in good repair and in a clean and safe condition,
including the roof (subject to the


                                       18.
<PAGE>   25
terms of Section 9.3 hereof), building systems (e.g., the HVAC system), floors
and floor coverings, interior plumbing, electrical wiring, fixtures and
equipment, and repair and/or replace any and all of the foregoing in a good and
workmanlike manner. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall, at Tenant's
sole expense, (a) immediately replace all broken glass in the Premises with
glass equal to or in excess of the specification and quality of the original
glass; (b) repair any area damaged by Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees,
invitees and visitors, including any damage caused by any roof penetration,
whether or not such roof penetration was approved by Landlord; and (c) maintain,
repair and replace when necessary all HVAC equipment which services the
Premises, and keep the same in good condition through regular inspection and
servicing, and maintain continuously throughout the Term a service contract for
the maintenance of all such HVAC equipment with a licensed HVAC repair and
maintenance contractor approved by Landlord, which contract provides for the
inspection and servicing of the HVAC equipment at least once every 90 days
during the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant defaults in Tenant's
obligations to maintain the HVAC equipment for more than thirty (30) consecutive
days, then Landlord may elect to assume responsibility for the maintenance,
repair and replacement of such HVAC equipment. Tenant shall furnish Landlord
with a copy of such service contract, which shall provide that it may not be
cancelled or changed without at least 30 days' prior written notice to Landlord.

         9.2 Landlord. Landlord, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, shall
repair damage to the foundation and the structural portions of the Buildings;
provided, subject to the terms of Section 8.3.6 hereof, if such damage is caused
by the negligence of Tenant, whether by an act or omission, then such repairs
shall be at Tenant's sole expense. There shall be no abatement of Rent during
the performance of such work. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for injury
or damage that may result from any defect in the construction or condition of
the Premises, nor for any damage that may result from interruption of Tenant's
use of the Premises during any repairs by Landlord. Tenant waives all rights and
benefits under California Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942 and under
any similar law, statute or ordinance now


                                       19.
<PAGE>   26
or hereafter in effect.

         9.3 Roof. To the extent that the membrane of the roof of the Building
requires replacement for reasons other than the acts of Tenant or Tenant's
agents, employees or contractor or the failure of Tenant to maintain and repair
the roof as required as Section 9.1 hereof, then Landlord shall, at Landlord's
expense, replace or arrange for the replacement of such roof. The cost of such
replacement, together with interest thereon at the Applicable Interest Rate,
shall be amortized over the useful life of such roof, as reasonably determined
by Landlord, and the portion of such amortized cost coming due during the Term
of this Lease and any extension thereof shall be reimbursed to Landlord at the
same time and in the same manner as Operating Expenses of the Property are
reimbursed to Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section 6 hereof.

10.      ALTERATIONS.

         10.1 Trade Fixtures; Alterations. Tenant may install necessary trade
fixtures, equipment and furniture in the Premises, provided that such items are
installed and are removable without structural damage thereto. Tenant shall not
make, or allow to be made, any alterations or physical additions in, about or to
the Premises without obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Tenant then requests so in
writing, then at the time Landlord gives its consent to a proposed alteration or
addition, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether such alteration or addition must
be removed at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease;
provided, however, that Tenant shall have the right to remove any lab benches,
fume hoods, cold rooms and other equipment in the Premises provided that the
same (i) was paid for and installed by Tenant, (ii) can be removed without
materially and adversely affecting the structure of the Buildings or any of the
building systems, and (iii) Tenant shall repair any damage caused to the
Premises as a result of such removal, including repair of surfaces exposed by
such removal that are not finished with materials consistent with adjacent
surfaces. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, without
the need for Landlord's prior written consent to make


                                       20.
<PAGE>   27
nonstructural alterations to the Premises that do not materially adversely
affect the economic value of the Premises, cost less than Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000) each (and less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in any
twelve (12) month period) and are not visible from the exterior of the Building,
provided that (a) Tenant provides Landlord with prior written notice of such
alterations, (b) such alterations are otherwise performed in accordance with the
terms of this Lease; and (c) to the extent that Tenant wishes to be excused from
the obligation to remove such alteration at the expiration of earlier
termination of this Lease, Tenant requests in writing at the same time notice is
given of such alteration whether or not the alteration must be removed upon such
Lease expiration or termination. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a set of
"as-built" drawings for any such work, together with copies of all permits
obtained by Tenant in connection with performing any such work, within thirty
days of completing such work.

         10.2 Damage; Removal. Tenant shall repair all damage to the Premises
caused by the installation or removal of Tenant's fixtures, equipment, furniture
or alterations upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Upon
the termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove any or all alterations,
additions, improvements and partitions made or installed by Tenant and restore
the Premises to their condition existing prior to the construction of any such
items, reasonable wear and tear and damage caused by the actions of Landlord or
Landlord's agents, employees or contractors excepted; provided, however,
Landlord, upon written notice to Tenant, may designate all or some of such items
to remain on the Premises, in which event they shall be and become the property
of Landlord upon the termination of this Lease, provided further that Tenant
shall have no obligation to remove Tenant's Initial Tenant Improvements or any
alterations or additions for which Landlord has given Landlord's consent to
remain in the Premises. All such removals and restoration shall be accomplished
in a good and workmanlike manner and so as not to cause any damage to the
Premises, or if any damage results, Tenant shall promptly repair such damage at
Tenant's sole expense. Conditions existing because of Tenant's failure to
perform maintenance, repairs or replacements or due to damage from nails or
stains shall not be deemed "reasonable wear


                                       21.
<PAGE>   28
and tear."

         10.3 Liens. Tenant shall pay, discharge or record a release bond
executed by an admitted surety insurer authorized to issue surety bonds in the
State of California within ten (10) days after receiving notice of the filing of
any lien, all claims for labor performed, supplies furnished and services
rendered at the request of Tenant and shall keep the Premises free of all
mechanics' and materialmen's liens in connection therewith. Tenant shall provide
at least ten (10) days' prior written notice to Landlord before any labor is
performed, supplies furnished or services rendered on or at the Premises on
Tenant's behalf which is of a nature that would give rise to the filing of a
lien and Landlord shall have the right to post on the Premises notices of
nonresponsibility. If any lien is filed for which Tenant is responsible and
which Tenant fails to remove in accordance with the terms of this Section 10,
Landlord may take such action as may be necessary to remove such lien and Tenant
shall pay Landlord such amounts expended by Landlord together with interest
thereon at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of expenditure.

11. USE. The Premises shall be used only for the Permitted Uses and for no other
uses and otherwise consistent with any applicable governmental laws, ordinances,
statutes, orders and regulations and any declaration of covenants, conditions
and restrictions or any supplement thereto which has been recorded in any
official or public records with respect to the Premises or any portion thereof.
Tenant shall comply with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, and
statutes and with the rules and regulations attached hereto as Exhibit E,
together with such additional rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to
time prescribe; provided that such additional rules and regulations do not
contradict the terms of this Lease. Tenant shall not commit waste, overload the
floors or structure of the Premises, subject the Premises to any use which would
damage the same or raise or violate any insurance coverage, permit any
unreasonable odors, smoke, dust, gas, substances, noise or vibrations to emanate
from the Premises, take any action which would constitute a nuisance, take any
action which would abrogate any warranties, or use or allow the Premises to be
used for any


                                       22.
<PAGE>   29
unlawful purpose. Tenant shall promptly comply with the reasonable
requirements of any board of fire insurance underwriters or other similar body
now or hereafter constituted.

         12.2 Hazardous Materials. As used herein, "Hazardous Materials" means
any chemical, compound, material, substance or other matter that: (a) is defined
as a hazardous substance, hazardous material, hazardous waste or toxic substance
under any Environmental Laws; (b) is controlled or governed by any Environmental
Laws or gives rise to any reporting, notice or publication requirements

would be included in the foregoing definition but which are present on the
Property as a result of Landlord's performance of the Base Building Work.

         12.3 Use. Tenant shall not cause, or allow any of Tenant's employees,
agents, customers, visitors, invitees, licensees, contractors, assignees or
subtenants (collectively, "Tenant's Parties") to cause or permit, any Hazardous
Materials to be brought upon, stored, manufactured, generated, blended, handled,

and (iii) routine office and janitorial supplies in usual and customary

respect to Tenant's use of any Hazardous Materials on the Premises shall not be
unreasonably withheld. In no event shall Landlord withhold or revoke Landlord's
consent to the Hazardous Materials described on Exhibit F attached hereto.
Landlord may approve such use subject to reasonable conditions to protect the
Premises and Landlord's interests. Landlord may withhold or revoke its approval
under clause (ii) if Landlord determines that such proposed use involves a
material risk of a release or discharge of Hazardous Materials or a violation of
any Environmental Laws or that Tenant has not provided reasonable assurances of
its ability to remedy such a violation and fulfill its obligations under this
Section 12.

         12.4 Compliance with Laws; Handling of Hazardous Materials. Tenant and
Tenant's Parties shall strictly comply with, and shall maintain the Premises in
compliance with, all Environmental Laws. Tenant shall obtain, maintain in effect

<PAGE>   31
through any sanitary sewer serving the Premises. At Landlord's request, Tenant
shall deliver copies of, or allow Landlord to inspect, all such permits,
licenses and approvals. To the extent Tenant marks such materials as proprietary
or confidential, and such materials are not already a matter of public record,
Landlord agrees to use Landlord's commercially reasonable efforts to keep the
contents of such materials confidential, although Landlord's failure to maintain
the confidentiality thereof shall not give rise to any right of Tenant to
terminate this Lease, and provided further that nothing herein shall prevent
Landlord from disclosing such permits to: (i) Landlord's employees, agents,
consultants, contractors, lender, investors or insurance carriers to the extent
necessary to perform the maintenance, repair and property management activities
required of Landlord hereunder or (ii) any governmental agency to the extent
required by law. Tenant shall be entitled to any rights or remedies available at
law or in equity to prevent a disclosure of such confidential material, provided
that the disclosure thereof shall not be considered a default by Landlord
hereunder entitling the Tenant to termination of this Lease. All Hazardous
Materials removed from the Premises shall be removed and transported by duly
licensed haulers to duly licensed disposal facilities, in compliance with all
Environmental Laws. Tenant shall perform any monitoring, investigation,
clean-up, removal, detoxification, preparation of closure or other required
plans and any other remedial work (collectively, "Remedial Work") required as a
result of any release or discharge of Hazardous Materials during the Term of
this Lease and affecting the Premises or any violation of Environmental Laws by
Tenant, Tenant's Parties or any successor or sublessee of Tenant or Tenant's
Parties. Landlord shall have the right to intervene in any governmental action
or proceeding involving any Remedial Work performed by Tenant, and to approve
performance of the work, in order to protect Landlord's interests. Tenant shall
not enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree or other compromise with
respect to any claims relating to Hazardous Materials affecting the Premises
without notifying Landlord and providing at least ten (10) business days'
opportunity for Landlord to intervene.

         12.5 Compliance With Insurance Requirements. Tenant shall comply with
the requirements of Landlord's and Tenant's insurers


                                       25.
<PAGE>   32
regarding Hazardous Materials and with such insurers' recommendations based upon
prudent industry practices regarding management of Hazardous Materials.

         12.6 Notice; Reporting. Tenant shall notify Landlord, in writing,
within five (5) days after any of the following: (a) Tenant has knowledge, or
has reasonable cause to believe, that any Hazardous Material other than
Permitted Hazardous Materials has been released, discharged or is located on,
under or about the Premises (or that Permitted Hazardous Materials have been
released or discharged on the Premises in violation of applicable laws); (b)
Tenant receives any order of a governmental agency requiring any Remedial Work
pursuant to any Environmental Laws; (c) Tenant receives any warning, notice of
inspection, notice of violation or alleged violation with respect to the
Premises, or Tenant receives notice or knowledge of any proceeding,
investigation of enforcement action with respect to the Premises, pursuant to
any Environmental Laws; or (d) Tenant receives notice or knowledge of any claims
made or threatened by any third party against Tenant or the Premises relating to
any loss or injury resulting from Hazardous Materials affecting the Premises. If
the potential risk of any of the foregoing events is material, Tenant shall
deliver immediate oral notice to Landlord, in addition to written notice as set
forth above. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all test results,
reports and business or management plans required to be filed with any
governmental agency pursuant to any Environmental Laws.

         12.7 Termination/Expiration. Upon termination or expiration of this
Lease, Tenant shall, at Tenant's cost, remove any equipment, improvements or
storage facilities utilized in connection with any Hazardous Materials and shall
clean up, detoxify, repair and otherwise restore the Premises to a condition
free of Hazardous Materials, to the extent the condition is caused by Tenant or
any successor or sublessee of Tenant or their respective agents, contractors,
employees, licensee or invitees.

         12.8 Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold
harmless Landlord and its partners, members, officers, directors, shareholders,
employees and agents from and against


                                       26.
<PAGE>   33
any and all liabilities, claims, suits, judgments, actions, investigations,
proceedings, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court
costs) arising out of or in connection with any default by Tenant with respect
to any provisions of this Section 12 or directly or indirectly arising out of
the use, generation, storage, release, disposal or transportation of Hazardous
Materials by Tenant or Tenant's Parties on, under or about the Premises during
the Term, including, but not limited to, all foreseeable and unforeseeable
consequential damages and the cost of any Remedial Work attributable thereto.
Any defense of Landlord pursuant to this Section 12 shall be by counsel
reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Neither the consent by Landlord to the use,
generation, storage, release, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials
nor the strict compliance with all Environmental Laws shall excuse Tenant from
Tenant's indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 12. The foregoing
indemnity shall be in addition to and not a limitation of the indemnification
provisions of Section 8.4 of this Lease. Tenant's obligations pursuant to this
Section 12 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Lease.

         12.9 Entry and Inspection; Cure. Subject to the restrictions of Section
1.3 hereof, Landlord, and its agents, employees and contractors, shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to enter the Premises at all reasonable times to
inspect the Premises and Tenant's compliance with the terms and conditions of
this Section 12, or to conduct investigations and tests regarding the presence
of Hazardous Materials in violation of this Section 12. No prior notice to
Tenant shall be required in the event of an emergency, or if Landlord has
reasonable cause to believe that violations of this Section 12 have occurred, or
if Tenant consents at the time of entry. In all other cases, Landlord shall give
at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior notice to Tenant. Landlord shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to remedy any violation by Tenant of the
provisions of this Section 12 or to perform any Remedial Work which is necessary
or appropriate as a result of any governmental order, investigation or
proceeding. Tenant shall pay, upon demand, all costs incurred by Landlord in
remedying such violations or performing all Remedial Work, plus interest thereon
at the Interest Rate from the date of demand until the date paid by


                                       27.
<PAGE>   34
Tenant, to the extent that the Remedial Work was required as a result of any
release or discharge of Hazardous Materials by Tenant or Tenant's Parties.
Tenant shall pay to Landlord such amount in advance of Landlord performing any
such Remedial Work, based upon Landlord's reasonable estimate of the cost of the
Remedial Work, and upon completion of such Remedial Work by Landlord, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord any shortfall promptly after Landlord's written request
therefor or Landlord shall refund to Tenant any excess deposit, as the case may
be.

         12.10 Default. The unlawful release or unlawful discharge of any
Hazardous Material or the violation of any Environmental Laws by Tenant or any
successor or sublessee of Tenant shall be a material default by Tenant under
this Lease. In addition to or in lieu of the remedies available under this Lease
as a result of such default, Landlord shall have the right, without terminating
this Lease, to require Tenant to suspend any portion of Tenant's operations and
activities on the Premises which are the cause of the violation of Environmental
Laws by Tenant until Landlord is satisfied that appropriate Remedial Work has
been or is being adequately performed; Landlord's election of this remedy shall
not constitute a waiver of Landlord's right thereafter to declare a default and
pursue other remedies set forth in this Lease.

         12.11 Exclusion for Pre-Existing and Other Hazardous Materials.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12, Tenant shall have
no obligations whatsoever to remove, remediate or indemnify, protect, defend or
hold Landlord harmless from: (i) any Hazardous Materials on, in or under the
Premises to the extent such Hazardous Materials were present at the Premises
prior to the Commencement Date of this Lease and Tenant has not in any way
contributed to the release, treatment or disposal of such Hazardous Materials
on, under or about the Premises (including without limitation any discharge of
Hazardous Materials from that certain hydrocarbon pipeline indentified in that
certain Phase I Environmental Assessment dated December 1994 with respect to the
Property) and (ii) any Hazardous Materials which Tenant can show tot he
reasonable satisfaction of Landlord) are only present on the Premises due to the
migration thereof through groundwater flowing from a real property that is
contiguous to the Property.

                                       28.

13.      DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION

         13.1 Casualty. If the Premises should be damaged or destroyed by fire
or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice to Landlord.
Within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof, Landlord shall notify Tenant
whether such repairs can reasonably be made within three hundred sixty-five
(365) days from the date of such notice.

                  13.1.1 Less Than 365 Days. If the Premises should be damaged
only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can be reasonably completed
within three hundred sixty-five (365) days, this Lease shall not terminate and,
provided that insurance proceeds are available to fully repair the damage,
Landlord shall repair the Premises, except that Landlord shall not be required
to rebuild, repair or replace any alterations, partitions, fixtures, additions
and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises
by or for the benefit of Tenant except to the extent Landlord receives insurance
proceeds covering such items from the policy maintained by Landlord pursuant to
Section 8.1 hereof. The Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately
from the date Tenant vacates the Premises only to the extent rental abatement
insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and the Premises are unfit for
occupancy.

                  13.1.2 Greater Than 365 Days. If the Premises should be
damaged to such extent that rebuilding or repairs cannot be reasonably completed
in less than three hundred sixty-five (365) days, then either Landlord or Tenant
may terminate this Lease by giving written notice thereof to the other within
ten (10) days after notice from Landlord regarding the time period of repair;
and this Lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay Rent shall be terminated as
of the date Tenant vacates the Premises. In the event that neither Landlord nor
Tenant elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall promptly commence and
diligently prosecute to completion the repairs to the Premises, provided
insurance proceeds are available to fully repair the damage (except that
Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the
alterations, partitions, fixtures, additions and


                                       29.
<PAGE>   36
other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by or
for the benefit of Tenant except to the extent Landlord receives insurance
proceeds covering such items from the policy maintained by Landlord pursuant to
Section 8.1 hereof). The Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately
from the date Tenant vacates the Premises only to the extent rental abatement
insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and the Premises are unfit for
occupancy. In the event that Landlord should fail to complete such repairs
within the period reasonably estimated for completion of the Building or repairs
after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant under Section 13.1
(such period to be extended for delays caused by Tenant or because of any event
of force majeure, as defined in Exhibit C), Tenant may, within ten (10) days
after the expiration of such repair or rebuilding period, terminate this Lease
by delivering written notice to Landlord as Tenant's exclusive remedy (but
without waiving Tenant's rights to certain insurance proceeds pursuant to
Section 13.6 hereof), whereupon all rights hereunder shall cease and terminate
thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of such notice.

         13.2 Tenant's Fault. If any portion of the Premises is damaged
resulting from the fault, negligence or breach of this Lease by Tenant or any of
Tenant's Parties, Rent shall not be diminished or abated during the repair of
such damage and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the cost of the repair
caused thereby to the extent such loss or Rent or cost is not covered by
insurance proceeds.

         13.3 Uninsured Casualty. In the event that any portion of the Premises
is damaged and is not fully covered by insurance proceeds received by Landlord
or in the event that the holder of any indebtedness secured by the Premises
requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then
Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice
of termination to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the date of notice to
Tenant of any such event. In the event that Tenant does not elect to terminate
this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering
written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such election by Tenant
or Tenant's failure to elect, as


                                       30.
<PAGE>   37
applicable, whereupon all rights and obligations shall cease and terminate
hereunder, except to the extent such rights and obligations expressly survive
the termination of this Lease pursuant to its terms.

         13.4 Tenant's Right to Defeat Termination. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, provided that: (i) no Event of Default by Tenant exists and
no event exists for which Tenant has been given written notice by Landlord of a
default by Tenant under this Lease, (ii) Protein Design Labs, Inc., or a
Permitted Affiliate of Protein Design Labs, Inc. is in occupancy of seventy-five
percent (75%) of the Premises, (iii) as of the date Landlord seeks to terminate
the Lease, at least two (2) years remain in the Term of this Lease (provided
that Tenant may exercise Tenant's right to an Extension Term provided for in
Section 18 hereof at the time of the Continuation Notice in order to satisfy the
condition described in this subsection (iii)), then Tenant may render Landlord's
decision to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 13 only null and void
and cease its effectiveness by providing Landlord, (a) within ten (10) days of
receipt of Landlord's termination notice, with written notice (a "Continuation
Notice") thereof, and (b) within thirty (30) days of receipt of Landlord's
termination notice, immediately available funds or such other security as is
reasonably acceptable to Landlord that funds from Tenant are available to
Landlord in an amount equal to the portion of the cost of rebuilding the
Premises for which Landlord does not receive insurance proceeds. If Tenant shall
properly provide Landlord with a Continuation Notice and rebuilding funds or
security pursuant to this Section 13.4, then Landlord shall use such funds
supplied by Tenant (without obligation of reimbursement to Tenant, except that
Landlord shall reimburse Tenant from any such funds delivered to Landlord by
Tenant in excess of the actual cost to rebuild the Premises not actually
reimbursed to Landlord from available insurance proceeds) to promptly commence
and diligently prosecute to completion the repairs to the Premises and Tenant
Improvements. The Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately from
the date Tenant vacates the Premises only to the extent rental abatement
insurance proceeds are received by Landlord. Landlord acknowledges and agrees
that, pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Landlord is maintaining only


                                       31.
<PAGE>   38
twelve (12) months worth of rental abatement insurance and that, if such
insurance is not available for any reason whatsoever, the Rent due hereunder
shall not abate notwithstanding the fact that the Premises may be unfit for
occupancy.

         13.5 Damage or Destruction Near End of Term. If the Premises is damaged
or destroyed during the last twelve (12) months of the Term of the Lease, and
the Premises cannot be fully repaired or restored by Landlord within sixty (60)
days after the date of the damage or destruction, either Landlord or Tenant may
terminate this Lease upon notice to the other, provided that Landlord may not
exercise its rights to terminate this Lease under this Section 13.5 if Tenant
has already exercised Tenant's right to either the First Extension Term or
Second Extension Term, as relevant, pursuant to the terms of Section 18.1
hereof.

         13.6 Tenant's Limited Rights to Insurance Proceeds Relating to Tenant
Improvements Paid for by Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, if the Premises is damaged by casualty and, as a result thereof, this
Lease is terminated by Landlord (and not Tenant) pursuant to the terms of
Section 13.1 or 13.3 hereof, then Tenant shall be entitled to payment from
Landlord of one hundred percent (100%) of the lesser of: (i) the Unamortized
Tenant Improvement Costs, or (ii) the Excess Insurance Proceeds. The
"Unamortized Tenant Improvement Costs" shall be calculated by taking the hard
costs of building the Tenant Improvements (i.e., excluding the costs of designs,
insurance and permits) actually paid for by Tenant (which costs shall be shown
on a written statement thereof executed by Landlord and Tenant within thirty
(30) days after the completion of the phase of tenant improvements in question)
and amortizing the amount thereof over the initial Term of the Lease on a
straight line basis, without interest thereon. The Unamortized Tenant
Improvement Costs shall be the remaining unamortized portions of such costs at
the time the Lease is terminated. As used herein, the "Excess Insurance
Proceeds" shall mean any property insurance proceeds actually received by
Landlord with respect to such casualty which are in excess of the sum of: (a)
the amount of any debt secured by the Premises, and (b) any positive amount
remaining after subtracting the amount of any such debt from the cost of
rebuilding the Premises (excluding


                                       32.
<PAGE>   39
therefrom the hard costs of building the Tenant Improvements actually paid for
by Tenant). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Tenant be entitled
to any Excess Insurance Proceeds for any Tenant Improvements: (1) which are
undamaged by the casualty and which Tenant removes from the Premises upon the
termination of this Lease, or (2) to the extent that Tenant has the right to
remove the relevant Tenant Improvement at the end of the Term, the Tenant
Improvement is not damaged by the casualty, yet Tenant elects not to remove such
Tenant Improvement.

         13.7 Waiver. With respect to any damage or destruction which Landlord
is obligated to repair or may elect to repair, Tenant waives all rights to
terminate this Lease pursuant to rights otherwise presently or hereafter
accorded by law.

14.      EMINENT DOMAIN.

         14.1 Total Condemnation. If all of the Premises is condemned by eminent
domain, inversely condemned or sold in lieu of condemnation for any public or
quasi-public use or purpose ("Condemned"), this Lease shall terminate as of the
date of title vesting in such proceeding and Rent shall be adjusted to the date
of termination.

         14.2 Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the Premises is Condemned
and such partial condemnation renders the Premises unusable for Tenant's
business, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of title vesting or order of
immediate possession in such proceeding and Rent shall be adjusted to the date
of termination. If such partial condemnation does not render the Premises
unusable for the business of Tenant, Landlord shall promptly restore the
Premises to the extent of any condemnation proceeds recovered by Landlord,
excluding the portion thereof lost in such condemnation, and this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect except that after the date of such title
vesting Rent shall be adjusted, as reasonably determined by Landlord.

         14.3 Award. If the Premises are wholly or partially Condemned, Landlord
shall be entitled to the entire award paid for such condemnation, and Tenant
waives any claim to any part of the award from Landlord or the condemning
authority; provided


                                       33.
<PAGE>   40
that Tenant shall have the right to recover from the condemning authority such
compensation as may be separately awarded to Tenant: (i) in connection with
costs incurred by Tenant in removing Tenant's merchandise, furniture, fixtures,
leasehold improvements and equipment to a new location, (ii) for the
interruption of Tenant's business or its moving costs, (iii) for loss of
Tenant's goodwill; or (iv) for any temporary taking where this Lease is not
terminated as a result of such taking. Tenant shall also have the right to make
a separate claim to the condemning authority, as long as the condemnation award
payable to Landlord is not reduced thereby, for one hundred percent (100%) of
any Unamortized Tenant Improvement Costs, except to the extent that Tenant has
the right to remove the relevant Tenant Improvement at the end of the Term, yet
Tenant elects not to do so.

         14.4 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of a temporary condemnation
for less than one hundred eighty (180) days, this Lease shall remain in effect,
Tenant shall continue to pay Rent and Tenant shall receive any award made for
such condemnation. If a temporary condemnation remains in effect at the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord the
reasonable cost of performing any obligations required of Tenant with respect to
the surrender of the Premises. A condemnation for a period of one hundred eighty
(180) days or longer shall be considered a partial or total condemnation, as
relevant, and shall be provided in this Section 14 above.

15.      DEFAULT

         15.1 Events of Defaults.  The occurrence of any of the following events
shall, at Landlord's option, constitute an "Event of Default":

                  15.1.1  Vacation; Abandonment.  Vacation or abandonment of the
Premises for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days, and Tenant waives any
right to notice Tenant may have under applicable law;

                  15.1.2  Failure to Pay Rent.  Failure to pay Rent on the date
when due and the continuation of such failure for five (5) business days
following written notice of such delinquency;

                  15.1.3 Failure to Perform. Failure to perform


                                       34.
<PAGE>   41
Tenant's covenants hereunder (except default in the payment of Rent); provided,
if such default is susceptible of cure and Tenant has promptly commenced the
cure of such default and is diligently prosecuting such cure to completion, then
the same must remain uncured for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof
from Landlord; provided further that if the nature of the default is such that
it cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, then no Event of Default
shall be deemed to have occurred so long as Tenant commences such cure within
thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of default and thereafter diligently
prosecutes such cure to completion;

                  15.1.4 Bankruptcy. The making of a general assignment by
Tenant for the benefit of creditors, the filing of a voluntary petition by
Tenant or the filing of an involuntary petition by any of Tenant's creditors
seeking the rehabilitation, liquidation or reorganization of Tenant under any
law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors and, in the
case of an involuntary action, the failure to remove or discharge the same
within sixty (60) days of such filing, the appointment of a receiver or other
custodian to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets or this
leasehold, any court entering a decree or order directing the winding up or
liquidation of Tenant or of substantially all of Tenant's assets, Tenant taking
any action toward the dissolution or winding up of Tenant's affairs, the
cessation or suspension of Tenant's use of the Premises, or the attachment,
execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets or
this leasehold; or

                  15.1.5 Material Misrepresentations. The making of any material
misrepresentation or omission by Tenant in any materials delivered by or on
behalf of Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease if such misrepresentations
were made with respect to a material aspect of Landlord's decision to enter into
or how to enforce the terms of this Lease with Tenant.

         15.2     Remedies.

                  15.2.1 Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any
Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right to give a written termination
notice to Tenant in accordance with


                                       35.
<PAGE>   42
applicable laws and, on the date specified in such notice, this Lease shall
terminate unless on or before such date all arrears of Rent and all other sums
payable by Tenant under this Lease and all costs and expenses incurred by or on
behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other Events
of Default at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the reasonable
satisfaction of Landlord.

                           15.2.1.1  Repossession.  Following termination,
without prejudice to other remedies Landlord may have, Landlord may (i)
peaceably re-enter the Premises upon voluntary surrender by Tenant or remove
Tenant therefrom and any other persons occupying the Premises, using such legal
proceedings as may be available; (ii) repossess the Premises or relet the
Premises or any part thereof for such term (which may be for a term extending
beyond the Term), at such rental and upon such other terms and conditions as
Landlord in Landlord's sole discretion shall determine, with the right to make
reasonable alterations and repairs to the Premises; and (iii) remove all
personal property therefrom.

                           15.2.1.2  Unpaid Rent.  Landlord shall have all the
rights and remedies of a landlord provided by applicable law, including the
right to recover from Tenant: (a) the worth, at the time of award, of the unpaid
Rent that had been earned at the time of termination, (b) the worth, at the time
of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned
after the date of termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of loss
of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (c) 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 the loss of rent that Tenant
proves could have been reasonably avoided, and (d) any other amount, and court
costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by
Tenant's default. The phrase "worth, at the time of award," as used in (a) and
(b) above, shall be computed at the Applicable Interest Rate on the twenty-fifth
(25th) day of the month preceding the date of this Lease, and as used in (c)
above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one


                                       36.
<PAGE>   43
percent (1%).

                  15.2.2 Continuation. Even though an Event of Default may have
occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not
terminate Tenant's right to possession; and Landlord may enforce all of
Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover
Rent as it becomes due, and Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may,
during the period Tenant is in default, enter the Premises and relet the same,
or any portion thereof, to third parties for Tenant's account and Tenant shall
be liable to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises,
including, without limitation, brokers' commissions, expenses of remodeling the
Premises and like costs. Reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than
the remaining Term. Tenant shall continue to pay the Rent on the date the same
is due. Landlord has the remedy described in California Civil Code Section
1951.4 (i.e., Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant's breach
and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to
sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations).

                  15.2.3 Application of Rent. No act by Landlord hereunder,
including acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or
the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord's
interest under this Lease, shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord notifies
Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease. In the event that Landlord
elects to relet the Premises following an Event of Default, the rent and any
other amounts that Landlord receives from reletting shall be applied to the
payment of, first, any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Rent
and Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes; second, all costs, including
maintenance, incurred by Landlord in reletting; and, third, Base Rent and
Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes under this Lease. After deducting the
payments referred to above, any sum remaining from the rental and any other
amounts Landlord receives from reletting shall be held by Landlord and applied
in payment of future Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. In no event
shall Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord. If, on the
date Rent is due under this


                                       37.
<PAGE>   44
Lease, the rent and any other amounts received from the reletting is less than
the Rent due on that date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the
remaining Rent due, all costs, including maintenance, Landlord incurred in
reletting that remain after applying the rent and any other amounts received
from reletting as provided hereinabove. So long as this Lease is not terminated
following an Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right to remedy any
default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises, to cause a receiver to
be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to add
to the Rent payable hereunder all of Landlord's reasonable costs in so doing,
with interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure.

         15.3 Cumulative. Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein
or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be
cumulative and shall not preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or
remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than
the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or
payment as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of
Rent; and Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord's right
to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue other remedies.

16.      ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

         16.1 Consent Required. Except as otherwise provided for in Section
16.4, Tenant shall not assign or sublet, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or
by operation of law, the Premises or any part thereof without Landlord's prior
written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
transfer of any controlling or managing ownership or beneficial interest in
Tenant shall constitute an assignment hereunder. If Tenant desires to assign
this Lease or sublet any or all of the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord
written notice thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the
assignment or sublease. Landlord shall then have a period of ten (10) business
days following receipt of such notice and all related documents and agreements
associated with the assignment or sublease,


                                       38.
<PAGE>   45
including without limitation, the financial statements of any proposed assignee
or subtenant, to notify Tenant in writing that Landlord elects: (1) to permit
Tenant to assign this Lease or sublet such space; or (2) to disapprove such
proposed assignment or subletting (in which case Landlord shall provide Tenant
with Landlord's reasons for such disapproval). This Lease may not be assigned by
operation of law. Any purported assignment or subletting contrary to the
provisions hereof shall be void.

         16.2 Bonus Rent. If Tenant receives monthly rent or other consideration
for any transfer in excess of the monthly Rent due under this Lease or, in case
of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of the monthly Rent that
is fairly allocable to such portion, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent
(50%) of the difference between each payment of monthly rent or other
consideration and the monthly Rent due hereunder. Prior to allocating between
Landlord and Tenant any monthly rent or other consideration paid by any assignee
or subtenant, in addition to deducting the monthly Rent that is allocable to the
portion of the Premises subject to the assignment or sublease, the amortized
portion of the Transfer Expenses (as hereinafter defined) shall also be deducted
from the monthly rent or other consideration payable by the assignee or
subtenant in connection with the assignment or sublease. The transfer expenses
(the "Transfer Expenses") shall consist of (i) the actual, documented and
reasonable out-of-pocket costs paid or incurred by Tenant for attorneys' fees
and brokerage commissions in connection with the assignment or subletting, (ii)
the actual and documented out-of-pocket costs paid by Tenant for improvements in
connection with the subletting or assignment, and (iii) an amount equal to the
product of (A) the amount of the Tenant Improvements (defined in Exhibit C)
constructed in the Premises and paid for by Tenant (excluding those Tenant
Improvements paid for out of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (defined in
Exhibit C)) and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months
remaining in the original Term and the denominator of which is one hundred
forty-seven (147) (i.e., the number of months in the original Term); provided,
however, the total amount of Transfer Expenses described in (i) and (ii) above
shall not exceed Ten Dollars ($10.00) per rentable square foot of the sublet
space or assigned Premises. The Transfer Expenses shall be amortized on a


                                       39.
<PAGE>   46
straight-line basis without interest over the remaining Term. Landlord may,
without waiving any rights or remedies, collect rent from the assignee,
subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein
reserved and apportion any excess rent so collected in accordance with the terms
of the preceding sentence.

         16.3 New Release. In the event Tenant assigns all or any part of its
interest in this Lease or subleases all or any portion of the Premises, Tenant
shall continue to be liable as a principal, and not as a guarantor or surety, to
the same extent as though no assignment or subletting had been made. Landlord
may consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this Lease by assignees
of Tenant without notifying Tenant or any successor of Tenant and without
obtaining their consent. No permitted transfer shall be effective until there
has been delivered to Landlord a counterpart of the transfer instrument. Tenant
shall not do any act which shall in any way encumber the title of Landlord in
and to the Premises.

         16.4 Consent Not Required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 16, an assignment or subletting of all or any portion
of the Premises to or by a "Permitted Affiliate" (defined below) shall not be
deemed an assignment or subletting under this Lease and, as a result, shall not
be subject to Landlord's consent or Landlord's right to receive excess rent in
connection with the assignment or subletting. Tenant shall provide Landlord with
not less than ten (10) days' prior written notice of any assignment or
subletting to a Permitted Affiliate. As used in this Lease, the term "Permitted
Affiliate" shall mean (i) any person, corporation or other entity which is
controlled by, controls, or is under common control with Tenant, or (ii) any
entity which merges or consolidates with Tenant or acquires all or substantially
all of Tenant's stock or assets, provided that such person, corporation or
entity has a net worth as of the effective date of such transfer sufficient to
fulfill the obligations of the tenant under this Lease, or in the case of a
sublease, sufficient to fulfill the obligations of the sublessee under such
sublease. The term "Control" as used in this Section 16 shall mean the
possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause


                                       40.
<PAGE>   47
the direction of the management and policies of a person or entity.

17.      ESTOPPEL, ATTORNMENT AND SUBORDINATION.

         17.1 Estoppel. Within ten (10) business days after request by Landlord,
Tenant shall deliver an estoppel certificate duly executed (and acknowledged if
required by any lender), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, to any
proposed mortgagee, purchaser or Landlord. Tenant's failure to deliver said
statement in such time period shall be conclusive upon Tenant that (a) this
Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be
represented by Landlord; (b) there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's
performance and Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against
Rent hereunder; and (c) no more than one period's Base Rent has been paid in
advance. Landlord reserves the right to substitute a different but reasonable
form of estoppel certificate upon the request of any proposed mortgagee or
purchaser. If any financier should require that this Lease be amended (other
than in the description of the Premises, the Term, the Permitted Use, the Rent
or as will significantly and adversely affect the rights or increase the
obligations of Tenant), Landlord shall give written notice thereof to Tenant,
which notice shall be accompanied by a Lease supplement embodying such
amendments. Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days after the receipt of
Landlord's notice, execute the tendered Lease supplement. Within ten (10)
business days after request by Tenant, Landlord shall deliver an estoppel
certificate duly executed (and acknowledged if required by any lender) stating
that (a) this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as
may be represented by Tenant; (b) there are no uncured defaults in Tenant's
performance and Landlord has no claims against Tenant hereunder; and (c) no more
than one period's Base Rent has been paid in advance.

         17.2 Attornment. In the event of a foreclosure proceeding, the exercise
of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust or the termination of a
ground lease, Tenant shall, if requested, attorn to the purchaser thereupon and
recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease; provided, however,
Tenant's obligation to attorn to such purchaser shall be


                                       41.
<PAGE>   48
conditioned upon Tenant's receipt of a non-disturbance agreement which provides
that the purchaser will not disturb Tenant's occupancy so long as there is no
Event of Default by Tenant.

         17.3 Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all
ground leases and the lien of all mortgages and deeds of trust which now or
hereafter affect the Premises or Landlord's interest therein (collectively, the
"Senior Liens"), or on or against all such ground leases, and all amendments
thereto, all without the necessity of Tenant's executing further instruments to
effect such subordination. If requested, Tenant shall execute whatever
documentation may be reasonably required to further effect the provisions of
this paragraph. Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, Landlord shall
provide Tenant, at Tenant's expense, with a subordination and non-disturbance
agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H executed by the existing
beneficiary under the deed of trust encumbering this Property.

18.      EXTENSION OPTION.

         18.1 Option to Extend. Tenant shall have two (2) options to extend the
Term for a period of five (5) years each (hereinafter referred to as the "First
Extension Term" and the "Second Extension Term", respectively), provided that at
the time Tenant's Extension Notice (defined below) is given and at the time the
First Extension Term and the Second Extension Term (each of which are sometimes
hereinafter referred to as the "Extension Term") is to commence (i) no Event of
Default by Tenant exists and no event exists for which Tenant has been given
written notice by Landlord of a default by Tenant under this Lease and (ii)
Protein Design Labs, Inc., or a Permitted Affiliate of Protein Design Labs,
Inc., is in occupancy of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Premises.
Tenant shall exercise such option, if at all, by written notice ("Tenant's
Extension Notice") to Landlord not later than twelve (12) months, nor earlier
than fifteen (15) months, prior to the expiration of the original Term or the
First Extension Term, as the case may be. Tenant's failure to deliver Tenant's
Extension Notice to Landlord in a timely manner shall be deemed a waiver of
Tenant's option to extend the Term and any future extension option shall lapse
and


                                       42.
<PAGE>   49
be of no force or effect.

         18.2     Exercise of Option.

                  18.2.1 First Extension Term. If Tenant exercises its extension
option for the First Extension Term, the Term shall be extended for an
additional period of five (5) years on all of the terms and conditions of this
Lease, except (i) Tenant's options to further extend the Term shall be reduced
in number by one, (ii) the monthly Base Rent at the commencement of the First
Extension Term shall be the greater of (A) the "Fair Market Rent" prevailing at
the commencement of the First Extension Term or (B) the monthly Base Rent in
effect at the end of the original Term. Tenant shall be responsible for all
brokerage costs and/or finder's fees associated with Tenant's exercise of its
option to extend the Term made by parties claiming through Tenant. Landlord
shall be responsible for all brokerage costs and/or finder's fees associated
with Tenant's exercise of its option to extend the Term made by parties claiming
through Landlord.

                  18.2.2 Second Extension Term. If Tenant exercises its
extension option for the Second Extension Term, the Term shall be extended for
an additional period of five (5) years on all of the terms and conditions of
this Lease, except (i) Tenant shall have no further option to extend the term of
this Lease, (ii) the monthly Base Rent at the commencement of the Second
Extension Term shall be the greater of (A) the "Fair Market Rent" prevailing at
the commencement of the Second Extension Term or (B) the monthly Base Rent in
effect at the end of the First Extension Term. Tenant shall be responsible for
all brokerage costs and/or finder's fees associated with Tenant's exercise of
its option to extend the Term made by parties claiming through Tenant. Landlord
shall be responsible for all brokerage costs and/or finder's fees associated
with Tenant's exercise of its option to extend the Term made by parties claiming
through Landlord.

         18.3     Determination of Fair Market Rent.

                  18.3.1 Agreement on Rent. For the purposes of this Amendment,
"Fair Market Rent" means the fair market monthly Base


                                       43.
<PAGE>   50
Rent, including adjustments thereto, expected to prevail as of the commencement
of the Extension Term with respect to leases of industrial/research and
development space within buildings located in Ardenwood Corporate Commons in
Fremont, California, of a quality and age and with interior improvements (other
than the laboratory and specialized improvements constructed and paid for by
Tenant), parking, site amenities, building systems, location, identity and
access all comparable to that of the Premises, for a term of approximately five
(5) years. Within five (5) days after Landlord's receipt of Tenant's Extension
Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall meet in an attempt to determine the Fair
Market Rent for the Premises. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the
Fair Market Rent for the Premises within thirty (30) days of the date that
Landlord receives Tenant's Extension Notice, then the Fair Market Rent for the
Premises shall be determined in accordance with the terms of Section 18.3.3
below.

                  18.3.2 Selection of Appraisers. If Landlord and Tenant are
unable to agree as to the Fair Market Rent within the aforementioned thirty (30)
day period as evidenced by a written amendment to the Lease executed by them,
then, within ten (10) days after the expiration of the thirty (30) day period,
Landlord and Tenant each, at its cost and by giving notice to the other party,
shall appoint a competent and disinterested real estate appraiser with
membership in the Appraisal Institute and M.A.I. designation and with at least
five (5) years' full-time commercial appraisal experience in the Fremont area to
appraise and set the monthly Base Rent during the Extension Term. If either
Landlord or Tenant 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
appointed shall be the sole appraiser and shall set the monthly Base Rent during
the Extension Term. If two (2) appraisers are appointed by Landlord and Tenant
as stated in this Section, they shall attempt to select a third appraiser
meeting the qualifications stated in this Section within ten (10) days. If they
are unable to agree on the third appraiser, either Landlord or Tenant, by giving
ten (10) days' notice to the other party, can apply to the then president of the
real estate board of the county in which the Buildings are located, or to the
Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of the county in which the Buildings are
located, for the


                                       44.
<PAGE>   51
selection of a third appraiser who meets the qualifications stated in this
paragraph. Landlord and Tenant each 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 Landlord or Tenant.

                  18.3.3 Value Determined By Three (3) Appraisers. The
Appraisers shall determine the Fair Market Rent by using the "Market Comparison
Approach" with the relevant market being buildings located in Ardenwood
Corporate Commons, in Fremont, California, of a quality and age and with
interior improvements (other than those constructed and paid for by Tenant),
parking, site amenities, building systems, location, identity and access all
comparable to that of the Premises. Within thirty (30) days after the selection
of the third appraiser, Landlord's appraiser shall arrange for the simultaneous
delivery to Landlord of written appraisals from each of the appraisers and the
three (3) appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by three
(3); the resulting quotient shall be the monthly Base Rent for the Premises
during the Extension Term. If, however, the low appraisal and/or the high
appraisal are/is more than ten percent (10%) lower and/or higher than the middle
appraisal, the low appraisal and/or the high appraisal shall be disregarded. If
only one (1) 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 monthly Base Rent for the Premises during the Extension Term. If both the
low appraisal and the high appraisal are disregarded as stated in this Section,
the middle appraisal shall be the monthly Base Rent for the Premises during the
Extension Term.

                  18.3.4 Notice to Landlord and Tenant. After the monthly Base
Rent for the Extension Term has been set, the appraisers immediately shall
notify Landlord and Tenant, and Landlord and Tenant immediately shall execute an
amendment to the Lease stating the monthly Base Rent.


19.      MISCELLANEOUS.

                                       45.

         19.1     General.

                  19.1.1 Entire Agreement. This Lease sets forth all the

                  19.1.3 Attorneys' Fees. In any action which either party

costs incurred by the prevailing party including reasonable attorneys' fees, to
be fixed by the court, and said costs and attorneys' fees shall be a part of the
judgment in said action.

                  19.1.4 Severable. If any provision of this Lease or the
application of any such provision shall be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable to any extent, the remaining
provisions of this Lease and the application thereof shall remain in full force
and effect and shall not be affected, impaired or invalidated.

                  19.1.5 Law.  This Lease shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of California.

                  19.1.6 No Option. Submission of this Lease to Tenant for
examination or negotiation does not constitute an option to lease, offer to
lease or a reservation of, or option for, the Premises; and this document shall
become effective and binding only upon the execution and delivery hereof by
Landlord and Tenant.

                  19.1.7 Successors and Assigns. This Lease shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Landlord,
Permitted Affiliates to whom the Lease has been assigned and, to the extent

                                       46.
<PAGE>   53

intended to create any third party benefit.

                  19.1.9 Memorandum of Lease. Tenant shall not record this Lease
or a short form memorandum hereof without Landlord's prior written consent.

                  19.1.10 Agency, Partnership or Joint Venture. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed or construed by the parties hereto, nor by any
third party, as creating the relationship of principal and agent or of
partnership or of joint venture by the parties hereto, it being understood and
agreed that no provision contained in this Lease or any acts of the parties
hereto shall be deemed to create any relationship other than the relationship of
landlord and tenant.

                  19.1.11 Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease
by Tenant or a mutual cancellation thereof or a termination by Landlord shall
not work a merger and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate all or any
existing subtenancies or may, at the option of Landlord, operate as an
assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subtenancies.

                  19.1.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereto each waive
trial by jury in any action or other proceeding (including counterclaims),
whether at law or equity, brought by one party against the other on matters
arising out of or in any way related to or connected with this Lease.

         19.2 Signs. Tenant shall have the right to construct an exterior sign
on each of the Buildings in front of the entrance to the Buildings, displaying
its corporate name and logo. The location, design and materials of any such
signs shall be subject to the prior written approval of Landlord, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. All signs and graphics of every kind visible
from the exterior of the Premises shall be subject to Landlord's prior written
approval and shall be subject to (i) any applicable governmental laws,
ordinances and regulations (ii) any covenants, conditions and restrictions now
or hereinafter recorded against the Property and (iii) in compliance with
Landlord's signage program. Tenant shall remove all such signs and graphics upon
the termination of this Lease. Such


                                       47.
<PAGE>   54
installations and removals shall be made in such manner as to avoid injury or
defacement of the Premises; and Tenant shall repair any injury or defacement,
including without limitation, discoloration caused by such installation or
removal.

         19.3 Waiver. No waiver of any default or breach hereunder shall be
implied from any omission to take action on account thereof, notwithstanding any
custom and practice or course of dealing, and no waiver shall affect any default
other than the default specified in the waiver and then said waiver shall be
operative only for the time and to the extent therein stated. Waivers of any
covenant shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the
same. No waiver by either party of any provision under this Lease shall be
effective unless in writing and signed by such party.

         19.4 Financial Statements. Tenant shall provide to any lender,
purchaser or Landlord, within ten (10) days after request, a current, accurate,
certified financial statement for Tenant and Tenant's business prepared under
generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and such other
certified financial information as may be reasonably required by Landlord,
purchaser or any lender of either; provided that so long as the stock of Tenant
is traded on a public exchange, Tenant shall be deemed to have satisfied
Tenant's obligations hereunder by providing Landlord with Tenant's most recent
annual filings and any subsequent quarter filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

         19.5 Limitation of Liability. The obligations of Landlord under this
Lease are not personal obligations of the individual partners, directors,
officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Landlord; and Tenant shall look
solely to Landlord's interest in the Premises (including sales and insurance
proceeds) for satisfaction of any liability and shall not look to other assets
of Landlord nor seek recourse against the assets of the individual partners,
directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Landlord. Whenever
Landlord transfers its interest, Landlord shall be automatically released from
performance under this Lease of obligations arising after the date of the
transfer and the transferee of Landlord's interest shall assume all


                                       48.
<PAGE>   55
liabilities and obligations of Landlord hereunder from the date of such
transfer.

         19.6 Notices. All notices to be given hereunder shall be in writing and
mailed postage prepaid by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested, or delivered by personal or courier delivery, or sent by facsimile,
provided that receipt of a facsimile transmission is confirmed, whether orally,
electronically or otherwise (immediately followed by one of the preceding
methods), to Landlord's Address and Tenant's Address, or to such other place as
Landlord or Tenant may designate in a written notice given to the other party.
Notices shall be deemed served upon the date of actual receipt or refusal of
delivery.

         19.7 Brokerage Commission. Landlord shall pay a brokerage commission to
Broker in accordance with a separate agreement between Landlord and Broker.
Tenant warrants to Landlord that Tenant's sole contact with Landlord or with the
Premises in connection with this transaction has been directly with Landlord and
Broker, and that no other broker or finder can properly claim a right to a
commission or a finder's fee based upon contacts between the claimant and
Tenant. Tenant and Landlord, respectively, shall each indemnify, defend by
counsel acceptable to the other, protect and hold each other harmless from and
against any loss, cost or expense, including, but not limited to, attorneys'
fees and costs, resulting from any claim for a fee or commission by any broker
or finder in connection with the Premises and this Lease other than Broker.

         19.8 Authorization. Either party hereto shall furnish to the other,
within ten (10) days after written request, evidence satisfactory to the other
that the person who executed this Lease on its behalf was duly authorized to do
so. Each individual executing this Lease represents and warrants that he or she
is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of the entity for
which it signs and that such execution is binding upon such entity.

         19.9     Holding Over; Surrender.

                  19.9.1 Hold Over. If Tenant holds over the Premises


                                       49.
<PAGE>   56
or any part thereof after expiration of the Term, such holding over shall
constitute a month-to-month tenancy, at a rent equal to one hundred fifty
percent (150%) of the Base Rent in effect immediately prior to such holding
over. This paragraph shall not be construed as Landlord's permission for Tenant
to hold over. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord following expiration or termination
shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease.

                  19.9.2 Surrender. Upon the termination of this Lease or
Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, Tenant will surrender the
Premises, together with all keys, in the same condition the Premises was in
immediately following the completion of the Tenant Improvements, reasonable wear
and tear and damage caused by Landlord or Landlord's agents, employees or
contractors excepted. Tenant shall remove all of Tenant's equipment, trade
fixtures and personal property from the Premises prior to the expiration of this
Lease. Tenant shall have the right to remove any lab benches, fume hoods, cold
rooms and other equipment in the Premises provided that the same (i) was paid
for and installed by Tenant, (ii) can be removed without materially and
adversely affecting the structure of the Buildings or any of the building
systems, and (iii) Tenant shall repair any damage caused to the Premises as a
result of such removal, including repair of surfaces exposed by such removal
that are not finished with materials consistent with adjacent surfaces. Tenant
shall repair any damage caused to the Premises as a result of Tenant's removal
of its equipment, trade fixtures and personal property, including restoring
unimproved surfaces in a manner consistent with adjacent surfaces. Conditions
existing because of Tenant's failure to perform maintenance, repairs or
replacements or due to damage from nails or stains shall not be deemed
"reasonable wear and tear."

         19.10 Joint and Several. If Tenant consists of more than one person,
the obligation of all such persons shall be joint and several.

         19.11 Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants with Tenant that,
subject to the rights of the holders of any Prior Liens, so long as no Event of
Default on the part of Tenant has occurred hereunder, Tenant shall and may
peaceably and


                                       50.
<PAGE>   57
quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term of this Lease, and any
renewals or extensions thereof

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Lease as of the date
set forth above.

                                            the Buildings.

         II.      Base Building Work.

                  A. Construction. Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall
arrange for the construction by Landlord's contractor ("Landlord's Contractor")
of (i) a single-story building (the "Building A Shell") of concrete "tilt-up"
construction, consisting of approximately forty-seven thousand seven hundred
(47,700) rentable square feet of space, (ii) a single-story building (the
"Building B Shell") of concrete "tilt-up" construction, consisting of
approximately forty-four thousand one hundred (44,100) rentable square feet of
space, (iii) a

<PAGE>   62
parking lot (the "Parking Lot") located on the Property, containing not less
than three hundred forty-two (342) parking spaces, (iv) landscaping of the
Property and (v) the performance of certain site work. The Building A Shell and
the Building B Shell are collectively referred to as the "Building Shells". The
Building Shells shall each be constructed substantially in accordance with the
plans and specifications attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 and incorporated herein
by reference, as the same may be modified as a result of the permit approval
process. The construction of the Building Shells and the Parking Lot and
landscaping and site work is hereinafter referred to as the "Base Building Work"

                  B. Costs.  Landlord shall pay for all fees incurred in
connection with the Base Building Work, including architectural, engineering,
consultant, utility, loan, development, transaction and building permit and
impact fees. Tenant shall not be required to pay to Landlord any supervision
fee, overhead or profit in connection with Landlord's construction of the Base
Building Work.

                  C. Delivery Condition. The Premises shall be deemed
"Substantially Complete" when Landlord's Contractor has substantially completed
the Building Shells, even though minor items may remain to be installed,
finished or corrected, provided such minor items do not have any material effect
on the ability of Tenant to utilize the Building Shells for their intended
purpose. Landlord shall prepare, have certified by Landlord's architect
("Landlord's Architect") and deliver to Tenant a written statement certifying
(a) that the Premises is "Substantially Complete" in accordance with the terms
of this Work Letter and (b) the date on which the Premises were Substantially
Completed. The Premises shall be deemed to be in "Delivery Condition" upon (i)
Substantial Completion (as evidenced by a statement from the Landlord's
Architect), (ii) all utilities included within the Base Building Work are
connected to the Building Shell, (iii) Landlord's notice to Tenant that the
Premises are Substantially Complete. Landlord shall diligently complete any
items of Base Building Work not completed when the Premises are in Delivery
Condition. The parking lot and site work to be performed by Landlord's
Contractor shall be completed

the event of any dispute as to whether the Premises are Substantially Complete,
the statement of Landlord's Architect shall be conclusive.

         III.     Tenant Improvements.

                  A. Description of Improvements. Tenant shall arrange for the
construction of certain improvements for the Permitted Uses in the Buildings and
the construction of an exterior storage area on the Property not to exceed one
thousand (1,000) square feet of space in a location approved by Landlord
(collectively, the "Tenant Improvements"), which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed by Tenant's
Contractor in accordance with plans and specifications prepared by Tenant's
Architect (each as defined below) and shall conform with the outline
specifications described in Exhibit B-2 attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference. The construction of the Tenant Improvements is hereinafter
referred to as the "Tenant Improvement Work."

                  B. Construction Phases. The Tenant Improvement Work shall be
completed in two (2) phases (hereinafter referred to as "Phase 1" and "Phase 2,"
respectively). Phase 1 shall consist of the construction of the Tenant
Improvements (the "Phase 1 Tenant Improvements") in at least seventy-five
percent (75%) or more of the total rentable square feet of space in the
Premises. Phase 2 shall consist of the construction of the Tenant Improvements
(the "Phase 2 Tenant Improvements") in the remainder of the rentable square feet
of space in the Premises (i.e., the rentable square feet of space in the
Premises that was not improved by Tenant during Phase 1).

                  C. Tenant's Architect and Contractor. Tenant shall notify
Landlord in writing by the date set forth in Section IV below of the architect
that Tenant proposes to prepare the plans and specifications and working
drawings for the Tenant Improvements and the contractor that Tenant proposes to
construct the Tenant Improvements. In addition, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord
any information reasonably requested by Landlord concerning the proposed
architect or contractor. Landlord shall



                                  EXHIBIT C-3
<PAGE>   64
have the right to approve both the architect and the contractor proposed by
Tenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The architect
selected by Tenant and approved by Landlord in connection with the Tenant
Improvement Work is hereinafter referred to as "Tenant's Architect". The
contractor selected by Tenant and approved by Landlord in connection with the
Tenant Improvement Work is hereinafter referred to as "Tenant's Contractor".
Both Tenant's Architect and Tenant's Contractor must be licensed to do business
in California. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord acknowledges that any of
the potential Tenant's Architects and Tenant's Contractors listed on Schedule 1
attached hereto are pre-approved by Landlord, and the consent of Landlord
thereto shall not be necessary, provided that Tenant shall provide Landlord with
written notice of a Tenant's Architect and Tenant's Contractor promptly upon the
selection thereof.

    VI.           Tenant Improvements Costs.

                  A.       Allocation of Tenant Improvement Costs.

                           1.       Minimum Tenant Improvement Contribution.
Tenant shall contribute an amount equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of the
first Eighty Dollars ($80.00) per rentable square foot of the Buildings incurred
by Landlord in planning and constructing the Tenant Improvements, including any
fees incurred in connection therewith (collectively, the "Tenant Improvement
Costs"), not to exceed Sixty Dollars ($60.00) per rentable square foot of the
Buildings (the "Minimum Tenant Improvement Contribution"). The Minimum Tenant
Improvement Contribution may be used to pay for any design, engineering or
architectural fees incurred by Tenant, but may not be used for administrative or
Tenant's overhead costs and expenses or Tenant's furniture, trade fixtures,
equipment or other personal property. Tenant shall be responsible for all
administrative and Tenant's overhead costs and expenses in connection with the
design and construction of the Tenant Improvements.

                           2.       Tenant Improvement Allowance.  Landlord
shall contribute an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the first
Eighty Dollars ($80.00) per rentable square foot of the Buildings incurred for
Tenant Improvement Costs, not to exceed Twenty Dollars ($20.00) per rentable
square foot of the Buildings. The Tenant Improvement Allowance may be used to
pay for any design, engineering and architectural fees, but shall not be used
for administrative or Tenant's overhead costs and

                                  EXHIBIT C-9
<PAGE>   70
expenses or Tenant's furniture, trade fixtures, equipment or other personal
property.

                           3.       Excess Tenant Improvement Costs.  Tenant
shall be responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of all Tenant Improvement
Costs in excess of Eighty Dollars ($80.00) per rentable square foot of the
Buildings.

                  B. Payment of Tenant Improvement Allowance. Landlord shall pay
the Tenant Improvement Allowance for the Phase 1 Tenant Improvements to Tenant
when the Phase 1 Tenant Improvements are substantially complete, as provided
below. Landlord shall pay the remaining Tenant Improvement Allowance for the
Phase 2 Tenant Improvements upon substantial completion thereof as provided
below. Landlord shall pay each installment of the Tenant Improvement Allowance
to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives from Tenant its
written request therefor, provided that (i) Tenant has substantially completed
the Phase 1 Tenant Improvements or Phase 2 Tenant Improvements, as applicable,
in accordance with this Work Letter, as determined by certificate of Tenant's
architect (Landlord and Landlord's architect shall have the right to inspect the
relevant tenant improvements to see that they have been substantially
completed), (ii) Tenant is not in default under the terms of this Lease after
the expiration of all applicable grace or cure periods and (iii) Tenant's
written request is accompanied by the following: (1) copies of invoices paid by
Tenant for Tenant Improvements paid for by the Tenant Improvement Allowance for
the applicable phase of construction in the amount requested by Tenant, (2)
unconditional lien waivers from Tenant's Contractor and all subcontractors,
materialmen and suppliers that have performed work or supplied materials for
work performed and materials installed by or for Tenant prior to the date of
Tenant's request, (3) a certificate from Tenant's Architect identifying the
Phase 1 Tenant Improvements and Phase 2 Tenant Improvements that have been
completed, as applicable, and certifying that those Tenant Improvements have
been completed, and (4) a copy of the "finaled" building permit with respect to
the Phase 1 Tenant Improvements and Phase 2 Tenant Improvements that have been
completed and, in the case of the last request for the Tenant Improvement
Allowance, a certificate of occupancy for the Premises.

                  C.       Allocation of Tenant Improvement Allowance

                           1.       Allocation Among Construction Phases.  The
Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be allocated among the Phase 1 Tenant
Improvements and the Phase 2 Tenant Improvements based on the proportionate
amount of rentable square footage of space in the Building which is improved by
Tenant during the applicable construction phase. For example, if Tenant
constructs the Phase 1 Tenant Improvements and otherwise improves eighty
thousand (80,000) rentable square feet of space in the Buildings during the
Phase 1 Construction (and the entire Building Shells consists of ninety-two
thousand (92,000) rentable square feet of space), then eighty-six and 96/100ths
percent (86.96%) of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be allocated to the
Phase 1 Construction and thirteen and 04/100ths percent (13.04%) of the Tenant
Improvement Allowance shall be allocated to the Phase 2 Tenant Improvements.

                           2.     Credit Towards Remaining Construction Phases.
Tenant may not use more than the proportionate share of the Tenant Improvement
Allowance allocated to the Phase 1 Tenant Improvements in connection with the
construction of the Phase 1 Tenant Improvements. If Tenant does not use the
entire portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance allocated to the Phase 1
Tenant Improvements for the construction thereof, Tenant may apply the unused
portion to the Tenant Improvement Allowance toward the construction of the Phase
2 Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall not be entitled to a credit against Rent or
to receive a cash or other payment if Tenant does not use the entire portion of
the Tenant Improvement Allowance in connection with the construction of the
Tenant Improvements during the Phase 1 Construction and the Phase 2
Construction. In addition, Tenant may not use any portion of the Tenant
Improvement Allowance to pay for any Tenant Improvements constructed after the
second (2nd) anniversary of the Commencement Date, as that date may be extended
pursuant to Sections VIII and IX below.

    VII. Tenant Delays. If Landlord fails to deliver the Premises to Tenant in
Delivery Condition on or before the Estimated Shell Delivery Date, and if the
cause of the delay in

                                  EXHIBIT C-11
<PAGE>   72
Landlord delivering the Premises to Tenant in Delivery Condition by the
Estimated Shell Delivery Date is attributable to Tenant, then the Commencement
Date for all purposes under the Lease will be the day on which the Premises
would have been in Delivery Condition absent such Tenant Delay (defined below).
Delays attributable to Tenant ("Tenant Delays") shall include any interference
with or delay in the completion of the Base Building Work caused by Tenant or
Tenant's Architect or any representative, employee, agent or subcontractor of
any of the aforementioned parties or attributable to Tenant's early entry in the
Premises.

    VIII. Force Majeure. Whenever a period of time or a specific date is herein
prescribed for action to be taken by Landlord and/or Tenant (except for the
obligations to pay amounts as specified herein), Landlord and/or Tenant shall
not be liable or responsible for, and there shall be excluded from the
computation for any such period of time (or the specified date shall be deferred
by the number of days of) any delays in the obtaining of any permits for and in
the construction of the Base Building Work and Tenant Improvements, caused by
any action, claim, inaction, order, ruling, moratorium, regulation, statute,
condition or other decision of any governmental agency having jurisdiction over
any portion of the Premises, over the construction anticipated to occur thereon
or over any uses thereof or by fire, flood, inclement weather, strikes, lockouts
or other labor or industrial disturbance (whether or not on the part of agents
or employees of either party hereto engaged in the construction of the Base
Building Work and Tenant Improvements), civil disturbance, order of any
government, court or regulatory body claiming jurisdiction or otherwise, act of
public enemy, war, riot, sabotage, blockade, embargo, failure or inability to
secure materials, supplies or labor through ordinary sources by reason of
shortages or priority or similar regulation, order of any government or
regulatory body, lightning, earthquake, storm, hurricane, tornado, washout,
explosion or any cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of the party
where performance is required, or any of its contractors or other
representatives, whether or not similar to any of the causes hereinabove stated.

    IX.           Landlord Delays.  If Tenant fails to substantially

                                  EXHIBIT C-12
<PAGE>   73
complete the Phase 2 Tenant Improvements on or before the second anniversary of
the Commencement Date, and if the cause of such delay is attributable to the
failure of Landlord to respond to a written request for approval of plans and
specifications by Tenant within the time periods specified in Section IV above,
then the date for credit towards payment of the Tenant Improvement Allowance
under Section VI(c)(2) shall be extended beyond the second anniversary of the
Commencement Date one (1) day for each such day of delay on the part of
Landlord, to the extent that such delay actually delays Tenant in the completion

Menlo Park, CA  94025-1041

Re:      Review of Protein Design Labs Chemical List

Dear Mr. Tamas:

Ardenstone LLC requested that I review the chemical list for Protein Design
Labs, Inc. (PDL) and comment on any issues which should be considered for a
lease agreement for one of your properties in Ardenwood. You provided a first
draft of a chemical list for the lab. Protein Design Labs has faxed to me a copy
of a recent Hazardous Materials Inventory Statement (HMIS) for their facility in
Mountain View. It is assumed that they will operate the new facility under Group
B Occupancy with a single Hazard Control Area as defined in the 1994 Uniform and
1995 California Building and Fire Codes. The following comments and
recommendations are provided for your consideration.

1. Provided that the facility operates as a Group B occupancy as authorized by
the local building and fire departments for the areas within the building which
will contain chemicals, all of the chemicals on the list should be approved by
Freestone for use at the site. Protein Design Labs should ensure that the total
quantities of chemicals in each hazard class are maintained under the exempt
quantities as defined by the 1995 California Fire Code (95 CFC). If the tenant
operated in compliance with the approved Hazardous Materials Business Plan for
the facility, then they shall maintain amounts of chemicals below the exempt
quantities. It is recommended that the current HMIS shall be attached to the
lease as an exhibit to the lease agreement for reference.

2. In the first chemical list provided by you, Protein Design Labs indicated
that they would store small quantities of explosive chemicals (sodium azide and
peracetic acid). In subsequent conversation with Randy Cook, he indicated that
they will not store or use explosive chemicals in the new facility. If sodium
azide is present at all, it will be in dilute aqueous solution and therefore not
explosive. The Fire Code allows small quantities (less than 1 pound) in Group B
occupancy under carefully managed conditions. It is mandatory that they meet the
strict requirements of the Fire Code. PDL shall review the details of the use of
small quantities of explosive substances with Freestone prior to their
introduction at the facility.

3. Group B occupancy does not allow for the storage or use of flammable or
oxidizing gases within the facility except when less than 250 cubic feet of gas
is used to operate equipment. It was noted that PDL intents to


                                                                       EXHIBIT F
<PAGE>   80
use a cylinder of compressed oxygen for operation of analytical instruments.
This oxidizing gas should be allowed because it meets the requirements for the
exemption.

4. The chemical list indicates the use of radioactive substances at the
facility. This is allowable under license from the State of California and is
also allowable under the requirements of the Fire Code. PDL indicated that they
will not be using alpha radiation sources at the site. The total quantity of
beta and gamma radiation sources as noted by PDL shall be allowed provided that
they maintain all applicable licenses. The chemical list shows a cesium-137
sealed source which is specifically exempt from the quantity limitation of the
Fire Code and is be approved.

5. The total quantity of flammable liquids shall be maintained below the exempt
quantity listed in the Fire Code.

6. The list of chemicals provided by PDL shall be updated before occupancy to
indicate the quantities for each hazard class. Chemicals which are not
classified on the current list shall be classified by PDL according the best
available information on their properties. The aggregate quantity of each hazard
class shall be provided to Freestone as validation that the facility will store
and use amounts below the exempt quantities.

7.       Copies of all applicable licenses and permits shall be provided for
review by Freestone before Protein Design Labs occupies the facility.

Please contact me directly at (408) 738-5570 when the information is available.

                  the Note, the Deed of Trust or any loan agreements with
                  respect to the Property, is under no obligation or duty to,
                  not has Lender represented that it will, see to the
                  application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom
                  Lender disburses such proceeds, and any application or use of
                  such proceeds for purposes other than those provided for in
                  such agreement or agreements shall not defeat this agreement
                  to subordinate in whole or in part;

         5.5      SUBORDINATION. Lessee intentionally and unconditionally
                  (subject to Section 10 below) subordinates all of Lessee's
                  right, title and interest in and to the Property to the lien
                  of the deed of Trust and understands that in reliance upon,
                  and in consideration of, this subordination, specific loans
                  and advances are being and will be made by Lender and as part
                  and parcel thereof, specific monetary and other obligations
                  are being and will be entered into which would not be made or
                  entered into but for said reliance upon this subordination.

6.       ASSIGNMENT.  Lessee acknowledges and consents to the assignment of the
         Lease by  Lessor in favor of Lender.

7.       ESTOPPEL.  Lessee acknowledges and represents that:

         7.1      LEASE EFFECTIVE.  The Lease has been duly executed and
                  delivered by Lessee and, subject to the terms and
                  conditions thereof, the Lease is in full force and effect,
                  the obligations of Lessee thereunder are valid and binding
                  and there have been no modifications or additions to the
                  Lease, written or oral; except as follows: (if none, state
                  "None") _________________________________.

         7.2      NO DEFAULT.  To the best of  Lessee's  knowledge,  as of the
                  date hereof: (i) there exists no breach, default, or
                  event or condition which, with the giving of notice or the
                  passage of time or both, would constitute a breach or
                  default under the Lease; and (ii) there are no existing
                  claims, defenses or offsets against rental due or to become
                  due under the Lease; except as follows: (if none, state
                  "None") _________________________________.
 
         7.3      ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  The Lease constitutes the entire agreement
                  between Lessor and Lessee with respect to the Property
                  and Lessee claims no rights with respect to the Property
                  other than as set forth in the Lease; and

         7.4      NO PREPAID RENT.  No deposits or prepayments of rent have
                  been made in connection with the Lease, except as
                  follows: (if none, state "None")
                  ______________________________________.

8.       ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS.  Lessee covenants and agrees that, during all
         such  times as Lender is the

                                                                     EXHIBIT H
                                       2
<PAGE>   100
Beneficiary under the Deed of Trust:

         8.1      MODIFICATION, TERMINATION AND CANCELLATION.  Lender will not
                  be bound by any modification, amendment, termination or
                  cancellation of the Lease (in whole or in part) made without
                  Lender's prior written consent;

         8.2      NOTICE OF DEFAULT. Lessee will notify Lender in writing
                  concurrently with any notice given to Lessor of any default by
                  Lessor under the Lease, and Lessee agrees that Lender has the
                  right (but not the obligation) to cure and breach or default
                  specified in such notice within the time periods set forth
                  below and Lessee will not declare a default of the Lease, as
                  to Lender, if Lender cures such default within fifteen (15)
                  days from and after the expiration of the time period provided
                  in the Lease for the cure thereof by Lessor; provided,
                  however, that if such default cannot with diligence be cured
                  by Lender within such fifteen (15) day period, the
                  commencement of action within such fifteen (15) day period to
                  remedy the same shall be deemed sufficient so long as Lender
                  pursues such cure with diligence; provided further that if the
                  Lease does not specify a time period for the cure of Lessor's
                  default, then Tenant may declare a default as to this Lease by
                  Lender sixty (60) days following the date of Tenant's notice
                  to Lender of Lessor's default;

         8.3      NO ADVANCE RENTS.  Lessee will make no payments or
                  prepayments of rent more than one (1) month in advance
                  of the time when the same become due under the Lease; and

         8.4      ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS. Upon receipt by Lessee of written notice
                  from Lender that Lender has elected to terminate the license
                  granted to Lessor to collect rents, as provided in the Deed of
                  Trust, and directing the payment of rents by Lessee to Lender,
                  Lessee shall comply with such direction to pay and shall not
                  be required to determine whether Lessor is in default under
                  the Loan and/or the Deed of Trust. In complying with these
                  provisions, Lessee shall be entitled to rely solely upon the
                  notices given by Lender, and Owner agrees to release Lessee
                  from and against any and all loss, claim, damage or liability
                  arising out of Lessee's compliance with such notice. Lessee
                  shall be entitled to full credit under the Lease for all rent
                  and other sums paid to Lender in accordance with the
                  provisions of this paragraph to the same extent as if such
                  rent and other sums were paid directly to Owner.

9.       ATTORNMENT. So long as Lender or Lender's Transferee complies with
         Section 10 below, Lessee agrees for the benefit of Lender (including
         for this purpose any transferee of Lender or any transferee of Lessor's
         title in and to the Property by Lender's exercise of the remedy of sale
         by foreclosure under the Deed of Trust) (hereinafter referred to as
         "Lender's Transferee") as follows if Lender or Lender's Transferee
         acquires title to the Property:

         9.1      PAYMENT OF RENT.  Lessee shall pay to Lender or Lender's
                  Transferee all rental payments required to be made by Lessee
                  pursuant to the terms of the Lease for the duration of the
                  term of the Lease;

         9.2      CONTINUATION OF PERFORMANCE. Lessee shall be bound to Lender
                  or Lender's Transferee in accordance with all of the
                  provisions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof,
                  and Lessee hereby attorns to Lender or Lender's Transferee as
                  its landlord, such attornment to be effective and
                  self-operative without the execution of any further instrument
                  immediately upon Lender or Lender's Transferee succeeding to
                  Lessor's interest in the Lease and giving written notice
                  thereof to Lessee;

         9.3      NO OFFSET. Lender and Lender's Transferee shall not be liable
                  for, nor subject to, any offsets or defenses which Lessee may
                  have by reason of any act or omission of Lessor under the
                  Lease, not for the return of any sums which Lessee may have
                  paid to Lessor under the Lease as and for security deposits,
                  advance rentals or otherwise, except to the extent that such
                  sums are actually delivered by Lessor to Lender provided that
                  if Lessor does not transfer security deposits to Lender,
                  Lessor shall remain liable for the return thereof; and

         9.4      SUBSEQUENT TRANSFER. If Lender, by succeeding to the interest
                  of Lessor under the Lease, should become obligated to perform
                  the covenants of Lessor thereunder, then, upon any further
                  transfer of Lessor's interest by Lender, all of such
                  obligations first arising after the date of such transfer
                  shall terminate as to Lender.
                                                                     EXHIBIT H

10.       NON-DISTURBANCE.  Lender, for the benefit of Lessee, on behalf of
         itself and any Lender Transferee covenants and agrees that in the event
         of a foreclosure under the Deed of Trust, so long as there shall then
         exist no Event of Default on the part of Lessee under the Lease, Lender
         agrees for itself and its successors and assigns that the leasehold
         interest of Lessee under the Lease shall not be extinguished or
         terminated by reason of such foreclosure, but rather the Lease shall
         continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Lessee and
         Lender and or Lender's Transferee, Lender shall honor the lease,
         perform all of the obligations of Lessor thereafter arising thereunder
         (except as provided herein), and recognize and accept Lessee as tenant
         under the Lease subject to the terms and provisions of the Lease
         (including the provisions relating to insurance and condemnation
         proceeds) except as modified by this Agreement; provided, however, that
         Lessee and Lender agree that the following provisions of the Lease (if
         any) shall not be binding on Lender; any option to purchase with
         respect to the Property; and any right of first refusal with respect to
         the Property.

11.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         11.1     HEIRS, SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS AND TRANSFEREES.  The covenants
                  herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of,
                  the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto; and

         11.2     NOTICES. All notices or other communications required or
                  permitted to be given pursuant to the provisions hereof shall
