6.2 Compliance with Law.
(a) Lessor warrants to Lessee that the Premises in the state
existing on the date that the Lease term commences, but without regard to the
use for which Lessee will occupy the Premises, does not violate any covenants or
restrictions of record, or any applicable building code, regulation or ordinance
in effect on such Lease term commencement date. In the event it is determined
that this warranty has been violated, then it shall be the obligation of the
Lessor, after written notice form Lessee, to promptly, at Lessor's sole cost and
expense, rectify any such violation. In the event Lessee does not give to Lessor
written notice of the violation of this warranty within six months from the date
that the Lease term commences, the correction of same shall be the obligation of
the Lessee at Lessee's sole cost. The warranty contained in this paragraph 6.2
(a) shall be of no force or effect if, prior to the date of this Lease, Lessee
was an owner or occupant of the Premises and, in such event, Lessee shall
correct any such violation at Lessee's sole cost.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph 6.2 (a) Lessee shall, at
Lessee's expense, promptly comply with all applicable statutes, ordinances,
rules, regulations, orders, covenants and restrictions of record, and
requirements of any fire insurance underwriters or rating bureaus, now in effect

policy from that now existing, during the term or any part of the term hereof,
relating in any manner to the Premises and the occupation and use by Lessee of
the Premises and of the Common Areas Lessee shall no use nor permit the use of
the Premises or the Common areas in any manner that will tent top create waste
or a nuisance or shall tend to disturb other occupants of the Industrial Center.
6.3 Condition of Premises.

debris on the Lease commencement date (unless Lessee is already in possession)
and Lessor warrants to Lessee that the plumbing, lighting, air conditioning,
heating and loading doors in the Premises shall be in good operating condition
on the Lease commencement date. In the event that it is determined that this
warranty has been violated, then it shall be the obligation of Lessor, after
receipt of written notice from Lessee setting forth with specificity the nature
of the violation, to promptly, at Lessor's sole cost, rectify such violation.
Lessee's failure to give such written notice to Lessor within thirty (30) days
after the Lease commencement date shall cause the conclusive presumption that
Lessor has complied with all of Lessor's obligations hereunder. The warranty
contained in this paragraph 6.3 (a) shall be of no force or effect if prior to
the date of this Lease, Lessee was an owner or occupant of the Premises.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Lease Lessee hereby
accepts the Premises in their condition existing as of the Lease commencement
date or the date that Lessee takes possession of the Premises, whichever is
earlier, subject to all applicable zoning, municipal, county and state laws,
ordinances and regulations governing and regulating the use of the Premises, and
any covenants or restrictions of record, and accepts this Lease subject thereto
and to all matters disclosed thereby and by any exhibits attached hereto Lessee

order, condition and repair. Lessor shall not be liable for damages or loss of
any kind or nature by reason of Lessor's failure to furnish any Common Area

their prior condition. Lessor may require Lessee to provide Lessor, at Lessee's
sole cost and expense, a lien and completion bond in an amount equal to one and
one-half times the estimated cost of such improvements to insure Lessor against
any liability for mechanic's and materialmen's liens and to insure completion of

prior to the commencement of any work in the Premises, and Lessor shall have the
right to post notices of non-responsibility in or on the Premises or the

expense shall defend itself and Lessor against the same and shall pay and
satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the
enforcement thereof against the Lessor or the premises or the Industrial Center,
upon the condition that if Lessor shall require, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor
a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to such contested lien
claim or demand indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same and holding
the Premises and the Industrial Center free from the effect of such lien or
claim. In addition, Lessor may require Lessee to pay Lessor's attorneys fees and
costs in participating in such action if Lessor shall decide it is to Lessor'
best interest to so.

not less than $500,000.00 per occurrence. The policy shall insure performance

(a) After the term of this Lease has commenced, Lessee shall not be
responsible for paying Lessee's Share of any increase in the property insurance

(b) Lessee, however, shall pay the entirety of any increase in the
property insurance premium for the Industrial Center over what it was

Lessee's occupancy or any act or omission of Lessee.

Lessee's occupancy, any act or omission of Lessee, requirements of the holder of
a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises, increased valuation of the
Premises or general rate increases. In the event that the Premises have been
occupied previously, the words "Base Period" shall mean the last twelve months
of the prior occupancy. In the event that the Premises have never been occupied
previously, the premiums during the "Base Period" shall be deemed to be in the
lowest premiums reasonably obtainable for said insurance assuming the most

parties may insert a dollar amount at the end of this sentence which figure
shall be considered as the insurance premium for the Base Period $ N/A . In no
------
event, however, shall Lessee be responsible for any portion of the premium cost
attributable to liability insurance coverage in excess of $500,000 procured
under paragraph 8.2.
(d) Lessee shall pay any such premium increases to Lessor within 30
days after receipt by Lessee of a copy of the premium statement or other
satisfactory evidence of the amount due. If the insurance policies maintained
hereunder cover other improvements in addition to the Premises, Lessor shall
also deliver to Lessee a statement of the amount of such increase attributable
to the Premises and showing in reasonable detail, the manner in which such
account was computed. If the term of this Lease shall not expire concurrently
with the expiration of the period covered by such insurance, Lessee's liability
for premium increases shall be prorated on an annual basis.
8.5 Insurance Policies. Insurance required hereunder shall be in
companies holding a "General Policyholders Rating" of at least B plus, or such
other rating as may be required by a lender having a lien on the Premises, as

policies carried by Lessor. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor copies of liability
insurance policies required under paragraph 8.1 or certificates evidencing the
existence and amounts of such insurance within seven (7) days after the
commencement date of this Lease. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject
to reduction of coverage or other modification except after thirty (30) days
prior written notice to Lessor. Lessee shall, at least thirty (30) days prior
to the expiration of such policies, furnish Lessor with renewals or "binders"
thereof.

relieve the other, and waive their entire right of recovery against the other

insurance carrier or carriers that the foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is
contained in this Lease.

defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the

thereof against Lessor.
8.8 Exemption of Lessor from Liability. Lessee hereby agrees that
Lessor shall not be liable for injury to Lessee's business or any loss of income
therefrom or for damage to the goods, wares, merchandise or other property of
Lessee, Lessee's employees, invitees, customers, or any other person in or about
the Premises or the Industrial Center, nor shall Lessor be liable for injury to
the person of Lessee, Lessee's employees, agents or contractors, whether such
damage or injury is caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas,
water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of
pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting
fixtures, or from any other cause, whether said damage or injury results from
conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Industrial
Center, 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
Lessee. Lessor shall not be liable for any damages arising from any act or
neglect of any other lessee, occupant or user of the Industrial Center, nor from
the failure of lessor to enforce the provisions of any other lease of the
Industrial Center.

9.2 Premises Partial Damage; Premises Building Partial Damage.
(a) Insured Loss. Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.4
and 9.5, if at any time during the term of this Lease there is damage which is
an Insured Loss and which falls into the classification of either Premises

Lessor' expense, repair such damage to the Premises, but not Lessee's fixtures,
equipment or tenant improvements, as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease
shall continue in full force and effect.
(b) Uninsured Loss. Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.4
and 9.5, if at any time during the term of this Lease there is damage which is
not an Insured Loss and which falls within the classification of Premises
Partial Damage or Premises Building Partial Damage, unless caused by a negligent
or willful act of Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at
Lessee's expense), which damage prevents Lessee from using the Premises, Lessor
may at Lessor's option either (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably
possible at Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full
force and effect, or (ii) give written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days
after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Lessor's intention to cancel
and terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage. In the
event Lessor elects to give such notice of Lessor' intention to cancel and
terminate this Lease, Lessee shall have the right within ten (10) days after the
receipt of such notice to give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's intention to
repair such damage at Lessee's expense, without reimbursement from Lessor, in
which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessee shall
proceed to make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible. If Lessee does not
give such notice within such 10-day period this Lease shall be cancelled and
terminated as of the date of the occurrence of such damage.
9.3 Premises Total Destruction; Premises Building total Destruction;

Industrial Center Buildings Total Destruction, then Lessor may at Lessor's
option either (i) repair such

improvements, as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's expense, and this Lease
shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) give written notice to Lessee
within thirty (30) days after the date of occurrence of such damage of Lessor's
intention to cancel and terminate this Lease, in which case this Lease shall be
cancelled and terminated as of the date of the occurrence of such damage.
9.4 Damage Near End of Term.
(a) Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.4(b), if at any time
during the last six months of the term of this Lease there is substantial
damage, whether or not an Insured Loss, which falls into the classification of
Premises Partial Damage, Lessor may at Lessor's option cancel and terminate this
Lease as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to
Lessor's election to do so within 30 days after the date of occurrence of such
damage.
(b) Notwithstanding paragraph 9.4(a), in the event that Lessee has
an option to extend or renew this Lease, and the time within which said option
may be exercised has not yet expired, Lessee shall exercise such option, if it
is to be exercised at all, no later than twenty (20) days after the occurrence
of an Insured Loss falling within the classification of Premises Partial Damage
during the last six months of the term of this Lease. If Lessee duly exercises
such option during said twenty (20) day period, Lessor shall, at Lessor's
expense, repair such damage, but not Lessee's fixtures, equipment or tenant
improvements, as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in
full force and effect. If Lessee fails to exercise such option during said
twenty (20) day period then Lessor may at Lessor's option terminate and cancel
this Lease as of the expiration of said twenty (20) day period by giving written
notice to Lessee of Lessor's election to do so within ten (10) days after the
expiration of said twenty (20) day period, notwithstanding any term or provision
in the grant of option to the contrary.
9.5 Abatement of Rent; Lessee's Remedies.
(a) In the event Lessor repairs or restores the Premises pursuant
to the provisions of this paragraph 9, the rent payable hereunder for the period
during which such damage, repair or restoration continues shall be abated in
proportion to the degree to which Lessee's use of the Premises is impaired.
Except for abatement of rent, if any, Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor
for any damage suffered by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair or
restoration.
(b) If Lessor shall be obligated to repair or restore the Premises
under the provisions of this paragraph 9 and shall not commence such repair or
restoration within ninety (90) day after such obligation shall accrue, Lessee
may at Lessee's option cancel and terminate this Lease by giving Lessor written
notice of Lessee's election to do so at any time prior to the commencement of
such repair or restoration. In such event this Lease shall terminate as of the
date of such notice.
9.6 Termination - Advance Payments. Upon termination of this Lease
pursuant to this Paragraph 9, an equitable adjustment shall be made concerning
advance rent and any advance payments made by Lessee to Lessor. Lessor shall,
in addition, return to Lessee so much of Lessee's security deposit as has not
theretofore been applied by Lessor.
12
<PAGE>
9.7 Waiver. Lessor and Lessee waive the provisions of any statute which
relate to termination of leases when leased property is destroyed and agree that
such event shall be governed by the terms of this Lease.
10. Real Property Taxes.
10.1 Payment of Tax Increase. Lessor shall pay the real property tax, as
defined in paragraph 10.3, applicable to the Industrial Center; provided,
however, that Lessee shall pay, in addition to rent, Lessee's Share (as defined
in paragraph 4.2[a]) of the amount, if any, by which real property taxes
applicable to the Premises increase over the fiscal real estate tax year
19 - 19 . Such payment shall be made by Lessee within thirty (30) days
after receipt of Lessor's written statement setting forth the amount of such
increase and the computation thereof. If the term of this Lease shall not
expire concurrently with the expiration of the tax fiscal year, Lessee's
liability for increased taxes for the last partial lease year shall be prorated
on an annual basis.
10.2 Additional Improvements. Lessee shall not be responsible for paying
Lessee's share of any increase in real property tax specified in the tax
assessor's records and work sheets as being caused by additional improvements
placed upon the Industrial Center by other lessees or by Lessor for the
exclusive enjoyment of such other lessees. Lessee shall, however, pay to Lessor
at the time that Operating Expenses are payable under paragraph 4.2(c) the
entirety of any increase in real property tax if assessed solely by reason of
additional improvements placed upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's
request.
10.3 Definition of "Real Property Tax." As used herein, the term "real
property tax" shall include any form of real estate tax or assessment, general,
special, ordinary or extraordinary, and any license fee, commercial rental tax,
improvement bond or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income
or estate taxes) imposed on the Industrial Center or any portion thereof by any
authority having the direct or indirect power to tax, including any city,
county, state or Federal government, or any school, agricultural, sanitary,
fire, street, drainage or other improvement district thereof, as against any
legal or equitable interest of Lessor in the Industrial Center or in any portion
thereof, as against Lessor's right to rent or other income therefrom, and as
against Lessor's business of leasing the Industrial Center. The term "real
property tax" shall also include any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge (i) in
substitution of, partially or totally, any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge
hereinabove included within the definition of "real property tax," or (ii) the
nature of which was hereinbefore included within the definition of "real
property tax," or (iii) which is imposed for a service or right not charged
prior to June 1, 1978, or, if previously charged, has been increased since June
1, 1978, or (iv) which is imposed as a result of a transfer, either partial or
total, of Lessor's interest in the Industrial Center or which is added to a tax
or charge hereinbefore included within the definition of real property tax by
reason of such transfer, or (v) which is imposed by reason of this transaction,
any modifications or changes hereto, or any transfers hereof.
10.4 Joint Assessment. If the Industrial Center is not separately
assessed, Lessee's Share of the real property tax liability shall be an
equitable proportion of the real property taxes for all of the land and
improvements included within the tax parcel assessed, such proportion to be
determined by Lessor from the respective valuations assigned in the assessor's
work sheets or such other information as may be reasonably available. Lessor's
reasonable determination thereof, in good faith, shall be conclusive.
13
<PAGE>
10.5 Personal Property Taxes.
(a) Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed against
and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal
property of Lessee contained in the Premises or elsewhere. When possible, Lessee
shall cause said trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal
property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of Lessor.
(b) If any of Lessee's said personal property shall be assessed with
Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the taxes attributable to
Lessee within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement setting forth
the taxes applicable to Lessee's property.
11. Utilities. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power,
telephone and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together
with any taxes thereon. If any such services are not separately metered to the
Premises, Lessee shall pay at Lessor's option, either Lessee's Share or a
reasonable proportion to be determined by Lessor of all charges jointly metered
with other premises in the Building.
12. Assignment and Subletting.
12.1 Lessor's Consent Required. Lessee shall not voluntarily or by
operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet, or otherwise transfer or
encumber all or any part of Lessee's interest in the Lease or in the Premises,
without Lessor's prior written consent, which Lessor shall not unreasonably
withhold. Lessor shall respond to Lessee's request for consent hereunder in a
timely manner and any attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, encumbrance or
subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall constitute a breach of
this Lease without the need for notice to Lessee under paragraph 13.1
12.2 Lessee Affiliate. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 12.1
hereof, Lessee may assign or sublet the Premises, or any portion thereof,
without Lessor's consent, to any corporation which controls, is controlled by or
is under common control with Lessee, or to any corporation resulting from the
merger or consolidation with Lessee, or to any person or entity which acquires
all the assets of Lessee as a going concern of the business that is being
conducted on the Premises, all of which are referred to as "Lessee Affiliate,"
provided that before such assignment shall be effective said assignee shall
assume, in full, the obligations of Lessee under this Lease. Any such
assignment shall not, in any way, affect or limit the liability of Lessee under
the terms of this Lease even if after such assignment or subletting the terms of
this Lease are materially changed or altered without the consent of Lessee, the
consent of whom shall not be necessary.
12.3 Terms and Conditions of Assignment. Regardless of Lessor's consent,
no assignment shall release Lessee of Lessee's obligations hereunder or alter
the primary liability of Lessee to pay the Base Rent and Lessee's Share of
Operating Expenses, and to perform all other obligations to be performed by
Lessee hereunder. Lessor may accept rent from any person other than Lessee
pending approval or disapproval of such assignment. Neither a delay in the
approval or disapproval of such assignment nor the acceptance of rent shall
constitute a waiver or estoppel of Lessor's right to exercise its remedies for
the breach of any of the terms or conditions of this paragraph 12 or this Lease.
Consent to one assignment shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent
assignment. In the event of default by any assignee of Lessee or any successor
of Lessee, in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Lessor
14
<PAGE>
may proceed directly against Lessee without the necessity of exhausting remedies
against said assignee. Lessor may consent to subsequent assignments of this
Lease or amendments or modifications to this Lease with assignees of Lessee,
without notifying Lessee, or any successor of Lessee, and without obtaining its
or their consent thereto and such action shall not relieve Lessee of liability
under this Lease.
12.4 Terms and Conditions Applicable to Subletting. Regardless of
Lessor's consent, the following terms and conditions shall apply to any
subletting by Lessee of all or any part of the Premises and shall be included in
subleases:
(a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of Lessee's
interest in all rentals and income arising from any sublease heretofore or
hereafter made by Lessee, and Lessor may collect such rent and income and apply
same toward Lessee's obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that until
a default shall occur in the performance of Lessee's obligations under this
Lease, Lessee may receive, collect and enjoy the rents accruing under such
sublease. Lessor shall not, by reason of this or any other assignment of such
sublease to Lessor not by reason of the collection of the rents from a
sublessee, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of Lessee to
perform and comply with any of Lessee's obligations to such sublessee under such
sublease. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such sublessee,
upon receipt of a written notice from Lessor stating that a default exists in
the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, to pay to Lessor the
rents due and to become due under the sublease. Lessee agrees that such
sublessee shall have the right to rely upon any such statement and request from
Lessor, and that such sublessee shall pay such rents to Lessor without any
obligation or right to inquire as to whether such default exists and
notwithstanding any notice from or claim from Lessee to the contrary. Lessee
shall have no right or claim against such sublessee or Lessor for any such rents
so paid by said sublessee to Lessor.
(b) No sublease entered into by Lessee shall be effective unless and
until it has been approved in writing by Lessor. In entering into any sublease,
Lessee shall use only such form of sublease as is satisfactory to Lessor, and
once approved by Lessor, such sublease shall not be changed or modified without
Lessor's prior written consent. Any sublessee shall, by reason of entering into
a sublease under this Lease, be deemed, for the benefit of Lessor, to have
assumed and agreed to conform and comply with each and every obligation herein
to be performed by Lessee other than such obligations as are contrary to or
inconsistent with provisions contained in a sublease to which Lessor has
expressly consented in writing.
(c) If Lessee's obligations under this Lease have been guaranteed by
third parties, then a sublease, and Lessor's consent thereto, shall not be
effective unless said guarantors give their written consent to such sublease and
the terms thereof.
(d) The consent by Lessor to any subletting shall not release Lessee
from its obligations or alter the primary liability of Lessee to pay the rent
and perform and comply with all of the obligations of Lessee to be performed
under this Lease.
(e) The consent by Lessor to any subletting shall not constitute a
consent to any subsequent subletting by Lessee or to any assignment or
subletting by the sublessee. However, Lessor may consent to subsequent
sublettings and assignments of the sublease or any amendments or
15
<PAGE>
modifications thereto without notifying Lessee or anyone else liable on the
Lease or sublease and without obtaining their consent and such action shall not
relieve such persons from liability.
(f) In the event of any default under this Lease, Lessor may proceed
directly against Lessee, any guarantors or any one else responsible for the
performance of this Lease, including the sublessee, without first exhausting
Lessor's remedies against any other person or entity responsible therefor to
Lessor, or any security held by Lessor or Lessee.
(g) In the event Lessee shall default in the performance of its
obligations under this Lease, Lessor, at its option and without any obligation
to do so, may require any sublessee to attorn to Lessor, in which event Lessor
shall undertake the obligations of Lessee under such sublease from the time of
the exercise of said option to the termination of such sublease, provided,
however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or security deposit
paid by such sublessee to Lessee or for any other prior defaults of Lessee under
such sublease.
(h) Each and every consent required of Lessee under a sublease shall
also require the consent of Lessor.
(i) No sublessee shall further assign or sublet all or any part of
the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent.
(j) Lessor's written consent to any subletting of the Premises by
Lessee shall not constitute an acknowledgment that no default then exists under
this Lease of the obligations to be performed by Lessee nor shall such consent
be deemed a waiver of any then existing default, except as may be otherwise
stated by Lessor at the time.
(k) With respect to any subletting to which Lessor has consented,
Lessor agrees to deliver a copy of any notice of default by Lessee to the
sublessee. Such sublessee shall have the right to cure a default of Lessee
within ten (10) days after service of said notice of default upon such
sublessee, and the sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from
and against Lessees for any such defaults cured by the sublessee.
12.5 Attorney's Fees. In the event Lessee shall assign or sublet the
Premises or request the consent of Lessor to any assignment or subletting or if
Lessee shall request the consent of Lessor for any act Lessee proposes to do
then Lessee shall pay Lessor's reasonable attorneys fees incurred in connection
therewith, such attorneys fees not to exceed $350.00 for each such request.
13. Defaults; Remedies.
13.1 Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a material default of this Lease by Lessee:
(a) The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Lessee.
(b) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of rent or any other
payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder, as and when due, where such
failure shall continue for a period
16
<PAGE>
of three (3) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee. In the
event that Lessor serves Lessee with a Notice to Pay Rent or Quit pursuant to
applicable Unlawful Detainer statutes such Notice to Pay Rent or Quit shall also
constitute the notice required by this subparagraph.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, the failure by
Lessee to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of
this Lease to be observed or performed by Lessee, other than described in
paragraph (b) above, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty
(30) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee, provided, however,
that if the nature of Lessee's noncompliance is such that more than thirty (30)
days are reasonably required for its cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be
in default if Lessee commenced such cure within said thirty (30) day period and
thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion. To the extent
permitted by law, such thirty (30) day notice shall constitute the sole and
exclusive notice required to be given to Lessee under applicable Unlawful
Detainer statutes.
(d) (i) The making by Lessee of any general arrangement or general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) Lessee becomes a "debtor" as
defined in 11 U.S.C. (S) 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the
case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60)
days), (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of
substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's
interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty
(30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of
substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's
interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30)
days. In the event that any provision of this paragraph 13.1(d) is contrary to
any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect.
(e) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement given to
Lessor by Lessee, any assignee of Lessee, any subtenant of Lessee, any successor
in interest of Lessee or any guarantor of Lessee's obligation thereunder, was
materially false.
13.2 Remedies. In the event of any such material default by Lessee,
Lessor may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand and without
limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by
reason of such default:
(a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by any
lawful means, in which case this Lease and the term hereof shall terminate and
Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In such
event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by
Lessor by reason of Lessee's default including, but not limited to, the cost of
recovering possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting, including
necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorney's fees,
and any real estate commission actually paid, the worth at the time of award by
the court having jurisdiction thereof of the amount by which the unpaid rent for
the balance of the term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such
rental loss for the same period that Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided;
that portion of the leasing commission paid by Lessor pursuant to paragraph 15
applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease.
(b) Maintain Lessee's right to possession in which case this Lease
shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee shall have vacated or abandoned
the Premises in such event Lessor shall be
17
<PAGE>
entitled to enforce all of Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease,
including the right to recover the rent as it becomes due hereunder.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor
under the laws or judicial decisions of this state wherein the Premises are
located. Unpaid installments of rent and other unpaid monetary obligations of
Lessee under the terms of this Lease shall bear interest from the date due at
the maximum rate then allowable by law.
13.3 Default by Lessor. Lessor shall not be in default unless Lessor
fails to perform obligations required of Lessor within a reasonable time, but in
no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to Lessor
and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises
whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to Lessee in
writing specifying wherein Lessor has failed to perform such obligation,
provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is such that more
than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Lessor shall not be in
default if Lessor commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and
thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion.
13.4 Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee
to Lessor of Base Rent, Lessee's Share of Operating Expenses or other sums due
hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the
exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs
include, but are not limited to processing and accounting charges, and late
charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any mortgage or trust
deed covering the Industrial Center. Accordingly, if any installment of Base
Rent, Operating Expenses, or any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received
by Lessor to Lessor's designee within ten (10) days after such amount shall be
due, then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall pay to
Lessor a late charge equal to 6% of such overdue amount. The parties hereby
agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the
costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such
late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's default
with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of
the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late
charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for three (3) consecutive
installments of any of the aforesaid obligations of Lessee, then Base Rent shall
automatically become due and payable quarter in advance, rather than monthly,
notwithstanding paragraph 4.1 or any other provision of this Lease to the
contrary.
14. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion thereof or the Industrial
Center are taken under the power of eminent domain or sold under the threat of
the exercise of said power (all of which are herein called "condemnation"), this
Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning
authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If more than ten
percent of the floor area of the Premises or more than twenty-five percent of
that portion of the Common Areas designated as parking for the Industrial Center
is taken by condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be exercised in
writing only within ten (10) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written
notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days
after the condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Lease
as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does
not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall
remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the premises remaining,
except that the rent shall be reduced in the proportion that the floor area of
the Premises taken bears to the total floor area of the
18
<PAGE>
Premises. No reduction of rent shall occur if the only area taken is that which
does not have the Premises located thereon. Any award for the taking of all or
any part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain or any payment made
under the threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property of Lessor,
whether such award shall be made as compensation far diminution in value of the
leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages, provided,
however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any award for loss of or damage to
Lessee's trade fixture and removable personal property. In the event that this
Lease is not terminated by reason of such condemnation, Lessor shall to the
extent of severance damages received by Lessor in connection with such
condemnation, repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemnation
except to the extent that Lessee has been reimbursed therefor by the condemning
authority. Lessee shall pay any amount in excess of such severance damages
required to complete such repair.
15. Broker's Fee.
(a) Upon execution of this Lease by both parties, Lessor shall pay to
N/A Licensed real estate broker(s), a fee as set forth in a separate
-----------
agreement between Lessor and said broker(s), or in the event there is no
separate agreement between Lessor and said broker(s), the sum of $ N/A
-------------,
for brokerage services rendered by said broker(s) to Lessor in this transaction.
(b) Lessor further agrees that if Lessee exercises any Option, as defined
in paragraph 39.1 of this Lease, which is granted to Lessee under this Lease, or
any subsequently granted option which is substantially similar to an Option
granted to Lessee under this Lease, or if Lessee acquires any rights to the
Premises or other premises described in this Lease which are substantially
similar to what Lessee would have acquired had an Option herein granted to
Lessee been exercised, or if Lessee remains in possession of the Premises after
the expiration of the term of this Lease after having failed to exercise an
Option, or if said broker(s) are the procuring cause of any other lease or sale
entered into between the parties pertaining to the Premises and/or any adjacent
property in which Lessor has an interest, then as to any of said transactions,
Lessor shall pay said broker(s) a fee in accordance with the schedule of said
broker(s) in effect at the time of execution of this Lease.
(c) Lessor agrees to pay said fee not only on behalf of Lessor but also on
behalf of any person, corporation, association, or other entity having an
ownership interest in said real property or any part thereof, when such fee is
due hereunder. Any transferee of Lessor's interests in this Lease, whether such
transfer is by agreement or by operation of law, shall be deemed to have assumed
Lessor's obligation under this paragraph 15. Said broker shall be a third party
beneficiary of the provisions of this paragraph 15.
16. Estoppel Certificate.
(a) Each party (as "responding party") shall at any time upon not less
than ten (10) days' prior written notice from the other party ("requesting
party") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a statement in
writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or, if modified stating the nature of such modification and certifying
that this Lease as so modified is in full force and effect) and the date to
which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii)
acknowledging that there are not to the responding party's knowledge, any
uncured defaults on the part of the requesting party, or specifying such
defaults if any are claimed. Any such
19
<PAGE>
statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or
encumbrancer of the Premises or of the business of the requesting party.
(b) At the requesting party's option, the failure to deliver such
statement within such time shall be a material default of this Lease by the
party who is to respond, without any further notice to such party, or it shall
be conclusive upon such party that (i) this Lease is in full force and effect,
without modification except as may be represented by the requesting party, (ii)
there are no uncured defaults in the requesting party's performance, and (iii)
if Lessor is the requesting party, not more than one month's rent has been paid
in advance.
(c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Industrial Center
or any part thereof, Lessee hereby agrees to deliver to any lender or purchaser
designated by Lessor such financial statements of Lessee as may be reasonably
required by such lender or purchaser. Such statements shall include the past
three (3) years financial statements of Lessee. All such financial statements
shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall
be used only for the purposes herein set forth.
17. Lessor's Liability. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean only the
owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title or a lessee's interest
in a ground lease of the Industrial Center, and except as expressly provided in
paragraph 15, in the event of any transfer of such title or interest, Lessor
herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers then the grantor) shall be
relieved from and after the date of such transfer of all liability as respects
Lessor's obligations thereafter to be performed, provided that any funds in the
hands of Lessor or the then grantor at the time of such transfer, in which
Lessee has an interest, shall be delivered to the grantee. The obligations
contained in this Lease to be performed by Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid,
be binding on Lessor's successors and assigns, only during their respective
periods of ownership.
18. Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the validity of any
other provision hereof.
19. Interest on Past-due Obligations. Except as expressly herein provided, any
amount due to Lessor not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum rate
then allowable by law from the date due. Payment of such interest shall not
excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease, provided, however, that
interest shall not be payable on late charges incurred by Lessee nor on any
amounts upon which late charges are paid by Lessee.
20. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the obligations to
be performed under this Lease.
21. Additional Rent. All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the
terms of this Lease, including but not limited to Lessee's Share of Operating
Expenses and insurance and tax expenses payable shall be deemed to be rent.
22. Incorporation of Prior Agreements; Amendments. This Lease contains all
agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein. No prior
or contemporaneous agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter
shall be effective. This lease may be modified in writing
20
<PAGE>
only, signed by the parties in interest at the time of the modification. Except
as otherwise stated in this Lease, Lessee hereby acknowledges that neither the
real estate broker listed in paragraph 15 hereof nor any cooperating broker on
this transaction nor the Lessor or any employee or agents of any of said persons
has made any oral or written warranties or representations to Lessee relative to
the condition or use by Lessee of the Premises or the Industrial Center and
Lessee acknowledges that Lessee assumes all responsibility regarding the
Occupational Safety Health Act, the legal use and adaptability of the Premises
and the compliance thereof with all applicable laws and regulations in effect
during the term of this Lease except as otherwise specifically stated in this
Lease.
23. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be
in writing and may be given by personal delivery or by certified mail, and if
given personally or by mail, shall be deemed sufficiently given if addressed to
Lessee or to Lessor at the address noted below the signature of the respective
parties, as the case may be. Either party may by notice to the other specify a
different address for notice purposes except that upon Lessee's taking
possession of the Premises, the Premises shall constitute Lessee's address for
notice purposes. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given to
Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at
such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designated by notice to
Lessee.
24. Waivers. No waiver by Lessor or any provision hereof shall be deemed a
waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Lessee of
the same or any other provision. Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any act
shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consents to
or approval of any subsequent act by Lessee. The acceptance of rent hereunder by
Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any provision
hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rent so accepted,
regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
acceptance of such rent.
25. Recording. Either Lessor or Lessee shall, upon request of the other,
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a "short form" memorandum of this
Lease for recording purposes.
26. Holding Over. If Lessee, with Lessor's consent, remains in possession of
the Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term hereof, such
occupancy shall be a tenancy from month to month upon all the provisions of this
Lease pertaining to the obligations of Lessee, but all Options, if any, granted
under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed terminated and be of no further
effect during said month to month tenancy.
27. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at
law or in equity.
28. Covenants and Conditions. Each provision of this Lease performable by
Lessee shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition.
29. Binding Effect; Choice of Law. Subject to any provisions hereof
restricting assignment or subletting by Lessee and subject to the provisions of
paragraph 17, this Lease shall bind the parties, their personal representatives,
successors and assigns. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State
where the Industrial Center is located and any litigation concerning this Lease
between the parties hereto shall be initiated in the county in which the
Industrial Center is located.

<PAGE>
30. Subordination.
(a) This Lease, and any Option granted hereby, at Lessor's option, shall
be subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or any other
hypothecation or security now or hereafter placed upon the Industrial Center and
to any and all advances made on the security thereof and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.
Notwithstanding such subordination, Lessee's right to quiet possession of the
Premises shall not be disturbed if Lessee is not in default and so long as
Lessee shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of this
Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms. If any
mortgages, trustee or ground lessor shall elect to have this Lease and any
Options granted hereby prior to the lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or
ground lease, and shall give written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease and
such Options shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground
lease, whether this Lease or such Options are dated prior or subsequent to the
date of said mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease or the date of recording
thereof.
(b) Lessee agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an
attornment, a subordination or to make this Lease or any Option granted herein
prior to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as the case
may be. Lessee's failure to execute such documents within ten (10) days after
written demand shall constitute a material default by Lessee hereunder without
further notice to Lessee or, at Lessor's option, Lessor shall execute such
documents on behalf of Lessee as Lessee's attorney-in-fact. Lessee does hereby
make, constitute and irrevocably appoint Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact and
in Lessee's name, place and stead, to execute such documents in accordance with
this paragraph 30(b).
31. Attorney's Fees. If either party or the broker(s) named herein bring an
action to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the prevailing
party in any such action, on trial or appeal shall be entitled to his reasonable
attorney's fees to be paid by the losing party as fixed by the court. The
provisions of this paragraph shall inure to the benefit of the broker named
herein who seeks to enforce a right hereunder.
32. Lessor's Access. Lessor and Lessor's agents shall have the right to enter
the Premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same, showing
the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or lessees, and making such
alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the
Industrial Center as Lessor may deem necessary or desirable. Lessor may at any
time place on or about the Premises or the Building any ordinary "For Sale"
signs and Lessor may at any time during the last 120 days of the term hereof
place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Lease" signs. All activities
of Lessor pursuant to this paragraph shall be without abatement of rent, nor
shall Lessor have any liability to Lessee for the same.
33. Auctions. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises or the Common Areas
without first having obtained Lessor's prior written consent. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to
exercise any standard of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such
consent.
22
<PAGE>
34. Signs. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Premises or the Industrial
Center without Lessor's prior written consent. Under no circumstances shall
Lessee place a sign on any roof of the Industrial Center.
35. Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a
mutual cancellation thereof, or a termination by Lessor, shall not work a
merger, and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing
subtenancies or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to Lessor
of any or all of such subtenancies.
36. Consents. Except for paragraph 33 hereof, wherever in this Lease the
consent of one party is required to an act of the other party such consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
37. Guarantor. In the event that there is a guarantor of this Lease, said
guarantor shall have the same obligations as Lessee under this Lease.
38. Quiet Possession. Upon Lessee paying the rent for the Premises and
observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on
Lessee's part to be observed and performed hereunder, Lessee shall have quiet
possession of the Premises for the entire term hereof subject to all of the
provisions of this Lease. The individuals executing this Lease on behalf of
Lessor represent and warrant to Lessee that they are fully authorized and
legally capable of executing this Lease on behalf of Lessor and that such
execution is binding upon all parties holding an ownership interest in the
Industrial Center.
39. Options.
39.1 Definition. As used in this paragraph the word "option" has the
following meaning (1) the right or option to extend the term of this Lease or to
renew this Lease or to extend or renew any lease that Lessee has on other
property of Lessor, (2) the option or right of first refusal to lease the
Premises or the right of first offer to lease the Premises or the right of first
refusal to lease other space within the Industrial Center or other property of
Lessor or the right of first offer to lease other space within the Industrial
Center or other property of Lessor; (3) the right or option to purchase the
Premises or the Industrial Center, or the right of first refusal to purchase the
Premises or the Industrial Center, or the right of first offer to purchase the
Premises or the Industrial Center, or the right or option to purchase other
property of Lessor, or the right of first refusal to purchase other property of
Lessor or the right of first offer to purchase other property of Lessor.
39.2 Options Personal. Each Option granted to Lessee in this Lease is
personal to the original Lessee and may be exercised only by the original Lessee
while occupying the Premises who does so without the intent of thereafter
assigning this Lease or subletting the Premises or any portion thereof, and may
not be exercised or be assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, by or to any
person or entity other than Lessee, provided, however, that an Option may be
exercised by or assigned to any Lessee Affiliate as defined in paragraph 12.2 of
this Lease. The Options, if any, herein granted to Lessee are not assignable
separate and apart from this Lease, nor may any Option be separated from this
Lease in any manner, either by reservation or otherwise.
23
<PAGE>
39.3 Multiple Options. In the event that Lessee has any multiple options
to extend or renew this Lease a later option cannot be exercised unless the
prior option to extend or renew this Lease has been so exercised.
39.4 Effect of Default on Options.
(a) Lessee shall have no right to exercise an Option,
notwithstanding any provision in the grant of Option to the contrary, (i) during
the time commencing from the date Lessor gives to Lessee a notice of default
pursuant to paragraph 13.1(b) or 13.1(c) and continuing until the noncompliance
alleged in said notice of default is cured, or (ii) during the period of time
commencing on the date after a monetary obligation to Lessor is due from Lessee
and unpaid (without any necessity for notice thereof to Lessee) and continuing
until the obligation is paid, or (iii) at any time after an event of default
described in paragraph 13.1(a), 13.1(d), or 13.1(e) (without any necessity of
Lessor to give notice of such default to Lessee), or (iv) in the event that
Lessor has given to Lessee three or more notices of default under paragraph
13.1(b), or paragraph 13.1(c), whether or not the defaults are cured, during the
12 month period of time immediately prior to the time that Lessee attempts to
exercise the subject Option.
(b) The period of time within which an Option may be exercised shall
not be extended or enlarged by reason of Lessee's inability to exercise an
Option because of the provisions of paragraph 39.4(a).
(c) All rights of Lessee under the provisions of an Option shall
terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Lessee's due and
timely exercise of the Option, if, after such exercise and during the term of
this Lease, (i) Lessee fails to pay to Lessor a monetary obligation of Lessee
for a period of thirty (30) days after such obligation becomes due (without any
necessity of Lessor to give notice thereof to Lessee), or (ii) Lessee fails to
commence to cure a default specified in paragraph 13.1(c) within thirty (30)
days after the date that Lessor gives notice to Lessee of such default and/or
Lessee fails thereafter to diligently prosecute said cure to completion, or
(iii) Lessee commits a default described in paragraph 13.1(a), 13.1(d) or
13.1(e) (without any necessity of Lessor to give notice of such default to
Lessee), or (iv) Lessor gives to Lessee three or more notices of default under
paragraph 13.1(b), or paragraph 13.1(c), whether or not the defaults are cured.
40. Security Measures. Lessee hereby acknowledges that Lessor shall have no
obligation whatsoever to provide guard service or other security measures for
the benefit of the Premises or the Industrial Center. Lessee assumes all
responsibility for the protection of Lessee, its agents, and invitees and the
property of Lessee and of Lessee's agents and invitees from acts of third
parties. Nothing herein contained shall prevent Lessor, at Lessor's sole
option, from providing security protection for the Industrial Center or any part
thereof, in which event the cost hereof shall be included within the definition
of Operating Expenses, as set forth in paragraph 4.2(b).
41. Easements. Lessor reserves to itself the right, from time to time, to
grant such easements, rights and dedications that Lessor deems necessary or
desirable and to cause the recordation of Parcel Maps and restrictions, so long
as such easements, rights, dedications, Maps and restrictions do not
unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Lessee. Lessee shall
sign any of the
24
<PAGE>
aforementioned documents upon request of Lessor and failure to do so shall
constitute a material default of this Lease by Lessee without the need for
further notice to Lessee.
42. Performance Under Protest. If at any time a dispute shall arise as to any
amount or sum of money to be paid by one party to the other under the provisions
hereof, the party against whom the obligation to pay the money is asserted shall
have the right to make payment "under protest" and such payment shall not be
regarded as a voluntary payment, and there shall survive the right on the part
of said party to institute suit for recovery of such sum. If it shall be
adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part of said party to pay
such sum or any part thereof, said party shall be entitled to recover such sum
or so much thereof as it was not legally required to pay under the provisions of
this Lease.
43. Authority. If Lessee is a corporation, trust, or general or limited
partnership, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of such entity
represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver
this Lease on behalf of said entity. If Lessee is a corporation, a trust or
partnership, Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days after execution of this
Lease, deliver to Lessor evidence of such authority satisfactory to Lessor.
44. Conflict. Any conflict between the printed provisions of this Lease and
the typewritten or handwritten provisions, if any, shall be controlled by the
typewritten or handwritten provisions.
45. Offer. Preparation of this Lease by Lessor or Lessor's agent and
submission of same to Lessee shall not be deemed an offer to lease. This Lease
shall become binding upon Lessor and Lessee only when fully executed by Lessor
and Lessee.
46. Addendum. Attached hereto is an addendum or addenda containing paragraphs
47 through 47 which constitute a part of this Lease.
