Such term shall be renewable for subsequent one year periods on terms mutually agreed to by the Parties hereto. Any reference to "Lease Year" shall refer to each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Term commencing on the Commencement Date. However, if the Commencement Date occurs on a day which is not the first day of the calendar month, then the first Lease Year shall be for a period beginning on the Commencement Date and ending on the last day of the calendar month in which the Commencement Date occurs plus the following twelve (12) consecutive calendar months. Any reference to "Lease Month" shall refer to each consecutive calendar month during the Term commencing on the Commencement Date.

In the event the Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar month and there are less than fifteen (15) days remaining in such month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Base Rent for such partial month and the next succeeding month on or before the Commencement Date. Base Rent for any partial month shall be prorated on the basis of the number of days within such calendar month.

2.2 Additional Rent    All charges payable by Tenant other than Base Rent, however denoted (including, but not limited to, any interest payable by Tenant hereunder but excluding the Cost Differential (as defined below)), shall be deemed "Additional Rent." Unless this Lease provides otherwise, all Additional Rent shall be paid with the next installment of Base Rent falling due.

In the event the Cost of Tenant Improvements exceeds the Improvement Allowance (the difference being defined as the "Cost Differential"), pursuant to Exhibit "D", Tenant will pay 100% of the Cost Differential immediately when due. In no event shall the Cost Differential be deemed Additional Rent payable hereunder, but rather, the Cost Differential shall be deemed paid for by Tenant Landlord shall be entitled to recover possession of the Premises in the event Tenant should fail to pay the Cost Differential when due.

Such delinquencies shall bear interest at Prime, as hereafter defined, plus eight percent (8%) per annum, not to exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by law (the "Maximum Rate of Interest") from the date when the same is due hereunder through the date the same is paid, provided, however, Landlord agrees to waive the application of the Maximum Rate of Interest on the first three delinquencies in any 12 month period provided Tenant fully pays such delinquencies within 30 days of the original due date. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Prime" shall mean the rate published from time to time by The Wall Street Journal (or any successor publication to The Wall Street Journal) as the "Prime Rate". If The Wall Street Journal (or any successor publication) should cease to publish a "Prime Rate", then Landlord shall select the rate of a financial institution located within the State of California (the "State") to be substituted therefor. The right to require payment of interest shall be in addition to all of Landlord's rights and remedies hereunder, at law or in equity.

15.2.3 Acceleration of Rent.    Declare all rents and charges due hereunder to be immediately due and payable and thereupon all such amounts due to the end of the term shall thereupon be accelerated; provided, however, such accelerated amounts shall be discounted to their then present value on the basis of a five percent (5%) per annum discount from the respective dates that such amounts would have been paid hereunder. In the event that any charges due hereunder cannot be exactly determined as of the date of acceleration, the amount of such charges shall be determined by Landlord in a reasonable manner based on historical increases in such charges;

15.4 No Waiver    No failure by Landlord to insist upon the performance of any of the terms of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance by Landlord of full or partial rent from Tenant or any third party during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any of the terms of this Lease. None of the terms of this Lease to be kept, observed or performed by Landlord or by Tenant, and no breach thereof, shall be waived, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by Landlord and/or by Tenant, as the case may be. No waiver of any default of Tenant herein shall be implied from any omission by Landlord to take any action on account of such default. One or more waivers by Landlord shall not be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same covenant, term or condition. No statement on a payment check from Tenant or in a letter accompanying a payment check shall be binding on Landlord. Landlord may, with or without notice to Tenant, negotiate such check without being bound to the conditions of such statement.

Such delays are sometimes referred to in this Lease as "Force Majeure."

18.19 Submission of Lease    Submission of this instrument for examination or signature by Tenant does not constitute a reservation of or an option for lease and is not effective as a lease or otherwise until execution and delivery by both Landlord and Tenant.

18.20 Relocation    At any time or from time to time during the Lease Term or any renewal thereof, Landlord shall have the right, with Tenant's consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to relocate all or a portion of Tenant from the Premises to any other office space in the Building. Landlord shall deliver notice to Tenant of Landlord's desire to relocate Tenant, together with a proposal for the area to which such Premises shall be relocated and an estimated date on which Tenant will be relocated. Should Landlord exercise its right to relocate Tenant under this Section 18.21 then (i) expenses of said relocation or of any necessary renovation or alteration, as calculated by Landlord prior to any relocation, shall be paid by Landlord, and (ii) following such relocation, the substituted space shall for all purposes thereinafter constitute the Premises and all terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply with full force and effect to the Premises as so relocated. If Tenant refuses to move its premises on the date specified in Landlord's notice, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving notice of such termination to Tenant (the "Termination Notice").

18.22 Reconfiguration    Upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant Landlord shall have the right to close any portion of the building area or land area to the extent as may, in Landlord's reasonable opinion, be necessary to prevent a dedication thereof or the accrual of any rights to any person or the public therein. Landlord shall at all times have full control, management and direction of the Building and the Common Areas, subject to the rights of Tenant in the Premises, and Landlord reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify and/or construct additions to the Common Areas and Building, and to create additional rentable areas through use and/or enclosure of common areas, or otherwise, and to place signs on the Building, and to change the name, address, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known. No implied easements are granted by this Lease. Except where any activity performed under this Section 18.22 is required by law, Landlord shall provide reasonable notice and use its best efforts to obtain Tenant's consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) prior to closing any portion of the Premises or undertaking any other activity under


28


this Section 18.22 that could reasonably be found to have a material adverse effect on Tenant's business or operations.

18.23 No Construction Against Drafting Party    Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that each of them and their respective counsel have had an opportunity to review this Lease and that this Lease will not be construed against Landlord merely because Landlord has prepared it.

Additional information regarding radon and radon testing may be obtainable from the county public health unit. Landlord makes no representation to Tenant concerning the presence or absence of radon gas in the Premises or the Building at any time or in any quantity. By executing this Lease, Tenant expressly releases Landlord from any loss, claim, liability, or damage now or hereafter arising from or relating to the presence at any time of such substances in the Premises or the Building.

18.26 Confidentiality Clause    Tenant acknowledges that the terms and conditions of this Lease are to remain confidential for the Landlord's benefit, and may not be disclosed by Tenant to anyone, by any manner or means, directly or indirectly, without Landlord's prior written consent. The consent of the Landlord to any disclosures shall not be deemed to be a waiver on the part of the Landlord of any prohibition against any future disclosure. Tenant shall indemnify, defend upon request, and hold Landlord harmless from and against all costs, damages, claims, liabilities, expenses, losses, court costs, and attorneys' fees suffered or claimed against Landlord, its agents, servants, and employees, based in whole or in part upon the broach of this subparagraph by Tenant, its agents, servants, and employees. The obligations within this subparagraph shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

18.27 Financial Reports    Within fifteen (15) days after Landlord's request, Tenant will furnish Tenant's most recent audited financial statements (including any notes to them) to Landlord, or, if no such audited statements have been prepared, such other financial statements (and notes to them) as may have been prepared by an independent certified public accountant or, failing those, Tenant's internally prepared financial statements; provided, however, that this provision shall not apply so long as Tenant's financial statements are publicly available. Landlord will not disclose any aspect of Tenant's financial statements that Tenant designates to Landlord as confidential except (a) to Landlord's lenders or prospective purchasers of the Building, (b) in litigation between Landlord and Tenant, and (c) if required by court order. Landlord further has the right to report to others its credit experience.

ARTICLE 19

TELECOMMUNICATIONS

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that all telephone and telecommunications services desired by Tenant shall be ordered and utilized at the sole expense of Tenant. All installations of telecommunications equipment and wires shall be accomplished pursuant to plans and specifications approved in advance in writing by Landlord. Unless Landlord otherwise requests or consents in writing, all of Tenant's telecommunications equipment shall be and remain solely in the Premises and the telephone closet(s) on the floor(s) on which the Premises is located, in accordance with rules and regulations adopted by Landlord from time to time. Landlord shall have no responsibility for the maintenance of Tenant's telecommunications equipment, including wire; nor for any wiring or other infrastructure to which Tenant's telecommunications equipment may be connected. Tenant agrees that, to the extent any such service is interrupted, curtailed or discontinued from any cause whatsoever, whether or not such loss, or damage results from any fault, default, negligence, act or omission of Landlord or its agents, servants, employees, or any other person for whom Landlord is in law responsible, Landlord shall have no obligation or liability with respect thereto and it shall be the sole obligation of Tenant at its expense to obtain substitute service.

Landlord shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant, to interrupt or turn off telecommunications facilities in the event of emergency or as necessary in connection with the operation of the Building or installation of telecommunications equipment for other tenants of the Building; provided, however, in the event of an interruption or shut down due to any circumstance other than a event of emergency, Landlord shall use its best efforts to obtain Tenant's prior consent and to coordinate such interruption or shut down with Tenant so as to avoid any material adverse effect on Tenant's business or operations.

Any and all telecommunications equipment installed in the Premises or elsewhere in the Building by or on behalf of Tenant, including wiring or other facilities for telecommunications transmittal, shall be removed prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, by Tenant at its sole cost or, at Landlord's election, by Landlord at Tenant's sole cost, with the cost thereof to be paid as Additional Rent. Landlord shall have the right, however, upon written notice to Tenant given no later than ten (10) days prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, to require Tenant to abandon and leave in place, without additional payment to Tenant or credit against Base Rent or Additional Rent, any and all telecommunications wiring and related infrastructure, or selected components thereof, whether located in the Premises or elsewhere in the Building.

In the event that Tenant wishes at any time to utilize the services of a telephone or telecommunications provider whose equipment is not then servicing the Building, no such provider shall be permitted to install its lines or other equipment within the Building without first securing the prior written approval of the Landlord. Landlord's approval shall not be deemed any kind of warranty or representation by Landlord, including, without limitation, any warranty or representation as to the suitability, competence, or financial strength of the provider. Without limitation of the foregoing standard, unless all of the following conditions are satisfied to Landlord's satisfaction, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to refuse to give its approval: (i) Landlord shall incur no expense whatsoever with respect to any aspect of the provider's provision of its services, including without limitation, the costs of installation, materials and


30


services; (ii) prior to commencement of any work in or about the Building by the provider, the provider shall supply Landlord with such written indemnities, insurance, financial statements, and such other items as Landlord reasonably determines to be necessary to protect its financial interests and the interests of the Building relating to the proposed activities of the provider; (iii) the provider agrees to abide by such rules and regulations, building and other codes, job site rules and such other requirements as are reasonably determined by Landlord to be necessary to protect the interests of the Building, the tenants of the Building and Landlord, in the same or similar manner as Landlord has the right to protect itself and the Building with respect to alterations as described in Article 9 of this Lease; (iv) Landlord reasonably determines that there is sufficient space in the Building for the placement of all of the provider's equipment and materials; (v) the provider agrees to abide by Landlord's requirements, if any, that provider use existing Building conduits and pipes or use building contractors (or other contractors approved by Landlord); (vi) Landlord receives from the provider such compensation as is reasonably determined by Landlord to compensate it for space used in the Building for the storage and maintenance of the provider's equipment, for the fair market value of a provider's access to the Building, and the costs which may reasonably be expected to be incurred by Landlord; (vii) the provider agrees to deliver to Landlord detailed "as built" plans immediately after the installation of the provider's equipment is complete; and (viii) all of the foregoing matters are documented in a written license or other agreement between Landlord and the provider, the form and content of which is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

Notwithstanding any provision of the preceding paragraphs to the contrary, the refusal of the Landlord to grant its approval to any prospective telecommunications provider shall not be deemed a default or breach by Landlord of its obligation under this Lease unless and until Landlord is adjudicated to have acted recklessly or maliciously with respect to Tenant's request for approval, and in that event, Tenant shall still have no right to terminate the Lease or claim an entitlement to rent abatement, but may as Tenant's sole and exclusive recourse seek a judicial order of specific performance compelling Landlord to grant its approval as to the prospective provider in question. The provisions of this paragraph may be enforced solely by Tenant and Landlord, are not for the benefit of any other party, and specifically but without limitation, no telephone or telecommunications provider shall be deemed a third party beneficiary of this Lease.

Tenant shall not utilize any wireless communications equipment (other than usual and customary cellular telephones), including antennae and satellite receiver dishes, within the Premises or the Building, without Landlord's prior written consent. Such consent may be conditioned in such a manner so as to protect Landlord's financial interests and the interests of the Building, and the other tenants therein, in a manner similar to the arrangements described in the immediately preceding paragraphs.

In the event that telecommunications equipment, wiring and facilities installed by or at the request of Tenant within the Premises, or elsewhere within the Building causes interference to equipment used by another party, Tenant shall assume all liability related to such interference, Tenant shall use reasonable efforts, and shall cooperate with Landlord and other parties, to promptly eliminate such interference. In the event that Tenant is unable to do so, Tenant shall substitute alternative equipment which remedies the situation. If such interference persists,


31


Tenant shall discontinue the use of such equipment, and, at Landlord's discretion, remove such equipment according to foregoing specifications.

ARTICLE 20

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

Tenant shall have a right of refusal to purchase the Building at a fair market price in the event Landlord decides to sell or offer for sale the Building Tenant occupies. Prior to any sale of the Building to a third party, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of its intent to sell the Building, and if known, the terms of such sale. Tenant shall have 10 days in to submit a bid or accept Landlord's terms. If Landlord does not receive an offer or acceptance within such 10 day period, then Landlord shall have the right to proceed with a sale of the Building to a third party.

Landlord and Tenant have signed this Lease on the dates specified adjacent to their signatures below.

1.    Landlord shall construct, or cause to be constructed in the Premises, the tenant improvements outlined generally in accordance with the improvement estimates attached hereto as Exhibit "D-1" (the "Tenant Improvements") using contractors approved by Landlord in its sole discretion and under the terms and conditions set forth below.

2.    If Tenant desires any changes, Tenant shall be required to evidence any such change desired by Tenant to Landlord in writing and Landlord shall have the right to withhold its consent to such changes.

5.    If the Cost of Tenant Improvements exceeds the Improvement Allowance, the amount of such excess (the "Cost Differential") shall be paid by Tenant.

6.    Landlord, at Landlord's discretion, may permit Tenant and Tenant's agents to enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date to allow Tenant to perform any Additional Work required by Tenant to make the Premises ready for Tenant's use and occupancy.

Tenant agrees that any such entry into and occupation of the Premises shall be deemed to be under all of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Lease except as to the covenant to pay the rent, and further agrees Landlord shall not be liable in any way for any injury, loss or damage which may occur to any of the Tenant Improvements and installations made in the Premises or to properties or persons placed or present therein prior to the Commencement Date, the same being at Tenant's sole risk.

7.    Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is not being compensated to perform the Tenant Improvements. TENANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LANDLORD SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,


CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES ARISING FROM LANDLORD's PERFORMANCE UNDER THIS EXHIBIT D, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE.
