Yearly Rent, in equal monthly installments, shall be paid for on the first day of each calendar month occurring during the Sublease Term to which such Yearly Rent is attributable. The Rent for the first full calendar month of the Sublease Term shall be payable on the Sublease Commencement Date. All charges, costs, expenses and sums required to be paid or borne by Subtenant under this Sublease in addition to Yearly Rent shall be deemed "Additional Rent," and Yearly Rent and Additional Rent shall hereinafter collectively be referred to as "Rent."

EXPENSES AND TAXES; ELECTRICITY CHARGES (a) In addition to Yearly Rent, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord the Tax Excess and Operating Expense Excess (as those terms are defined in the Master Lease), and all other additional rent and other charges, however described, payable under the Master Lease by Sublandlord, as tenant under the Master Lease, with respect to the Subleased Premises or Subtenant's use and occupancy thereof. Subtenant shall pay such amount within twenty-five (25) days of receipt of an invoice therefore from Sublandlord.

All insurance policies shall name Master Landlord, Master Landlord's managing agent, Sublandlord and Sublandlord's managing agent as additional insureds and loss payees and shall contain an endorsement that such policies may not be modified or canceled without thirty (30) days prior written notice to Master Landlord and Sublandlord. Subtenant shall promptly pay all insurance premiums and shall provide Sublandlord with policies or certificates thereof that are acceptable to Sublandlord and Master Landlord evidencing such insurance upon Subtenant's execution of this Sublease. (b) In the event Subtenant sustains a loss by reason of fire or other casualty that is covered by its property insurance policy (or would have been covered had Subtenant carried the insurance required hereunder), and regardless of whether such fire or other casualty is caused in whole or in part by the acts or omissions of Sublandlord or Master Landlord or their agents, servants, employees or invitees, then Subtenant agrees to look first to the coverage provided by its insurance proceeds, and Subtenant shall have no right of action against Sublandlord, Master Landlord, or their agents, servants, employees or invitees, and no third party shall have any right by way of assignment, subrogation or otherwise against the party causing such loss; provided, however, in the event of such claims against Sublandlord, the foregoing release of claims shall only apply to the extent of insurance proceeds actually collected by such party (unless such party failed to maintain the coverage required hereunder, in which event it shall be deemed to have recovered the entire policy amount required hereunder). In the event Sublandlord sustains a loss by reason of fire or other casualty that is covered by its property insurance policy, and regardless of whether such fire or other casualty is caused in whole or in party by the acts or omissions of Subtenant or its agents, servants, employees or invitees, then Sublandlord agrees to look first to the coverage provided by its insurance proceeds, and it shall have no right of actions against Subtenant or its agents, servants, employees or invitees, and no third party shall have any right by way of assignment, subrogation <PAGE> or otherwise against Subtenant; provided, however, the foregoing release of claims shall only apply to the extent of insurance proceeds actually collected by Sublandlord. The parties hereto agree that each of their policies of property insurance shall include a waiver of subrogation to effectuate this provision. 6. USE OF PREMISES Subtenant shall use and occupy the Subleased Premises only for the Permitted Uses, and only to the extent permitted by the Master Lease and all laws governing or affecting Subtenant's use of the Subleased Premises.

PROVISION OF SERVICES; ADDITIONAL SERVICES Those services provided by Master Landlord to Sublandlord under the Master Lease shall also be provided by Master Landlord to Subtenant, except those services explicitly excluded by the terms of this Sublease. No additional services are currently included in Yearly Rent or Operating Expenses. Subtenant may request Sublandlord to furnish the Subleased Premises or Subtenant with services not included in the Master Lease or services explicitly excluded by the terms of this Sublease ("Additional Services"). If Sublandlord furnishes Subtenant with any Additional Services, Sublandlord may charge Subtenant a reasonable charge (if any are incurred) ("Additional Charge") related solely to the provision of Additional Services. If Sublandlord estimates that the Additional Charge may be in excess of One-Thousand Dollars ($1000), Sublandlord shall provide Subtenant a written and documented estimation of the Additional Costs before commencing or providing such Additional Services, and thereafter Subtenant shall have five (5) days with which to indicate whether Subtenant desires to receive such Additional Services. Upon completion or provision of Additional Services by Sublandlord, and receipt of the written notice of the Additional Charge from Sublandlord, Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord the Additional Charge within ten (10) days of the receipt of the written notice of the Additional Charge. 8. CONDITION OF PREMISES; TRADE FIXTURES Subtenant shall have the right to furnish and install any trade fixtures that are necessary for the conduct of its business; provided, however, that at the termination of this Sublease, Subtenant shall remove such trade fixtures and restore the Subleased Premises at Subtenant's sole cost to the state and condition in which they existed on the Commencement Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted. If Subtenant fails to comply with the provisions of this paragraph, Sublandlord may make such repairs or restoration, and the reasonable cost thereof shall be additional rent payable by Subtenant on demand. All trade fixtures shall be and remain the property of Subtenant, provided that any such trade fixtures <PAGE> remaining on the Premises after the expiration or termination of the term hereof shall be deemed abandoned by Subtenant and shall, at Sublandlord's option, become the property of Sublandlord without payment therefor. 9. ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS Prior to the Sublease Commencement Date and at Sublandlord's sole expense, Sublandlord shall demise the Subleased Premises from the Master Leased Premises. This shall include relocating thermostats to control the HVAC and Electrical in the Subleased Premises, installing tile hung drop ceilings to match the existing conditions, install all necessary lights, electrical outlets, sprinklers and emergency lighting.

Sublandlord's Work shall be done in compliance with all governmental regulations including, but not limited to, the 1992 Americans with Disabilities Act, any other law requiring handicapped accessibility, and any environmental standard including air quality requirements. Should an additional subtenant take occupancy of the balance of Master Leased Premises, Sublandlord will, at that time, relocate power circuits serving the additional subleased space from the Base Building Electrical Room to the electrical closet in the common area adjacent to the south side of the lab area. However, the circuits serving any additional subtenant shall be located on a panel separate from those circuits serving the lab area in the Subleased Premises. Circuits for Base Building HVAC and Lighting for both subtenants will remain fed from the Base Building Electrical Room. Sublandlord shall segregate all circuits serving the lab area in the Subleased Premises into one electrical panel to which Subtenant shall have exclusive access. Subtenant may install, at Subtenant's sole cost and expense, a security lock system for the lab circuit panel provided that Sublandlord and Prime Landlord are able to access said circuit panel. Except for the Sublandlord's Work, Sublandlord shall have no obligation to make any alterations or improvements to the Premises for Subtenant's use or occupancy thereof. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Master Lease to the contrary, Subtenant shall not make any alterations, additions, improvements or installments in the Subleased Premises without in each instance obtaining the prior written consent of both Master Landlord and Sublandlord, which they may grant, withhold or condition in their respective sole and absolute discretion. If Sublandlord and Master Landlord consent to any such alterations, improvements or installations, Subtenant shall perform and complete such alterations, improvements and installations at its expense, in compliance with applicable laws and the Master Lease. If Subtenant performs any alterations, improvements or installations without obtaining the prior written consent of both Master Landlord and Sublandlord, Sublandlord (or Master Landlord) may remove such alterations, improvements or installations, restore the Subleased Premises and repair any <PAGE> damage arising from such removal or restoration, and Subtenant shall be liable for all costs and expenses incurred in the performance of such removal, repairs or restoration.
