ARTICLE 1

REAL PROPERTY, BUILDING AND PREMISES
1.1     Real Property, Building and Premises .
1.1.1     Premises . Upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Lease, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the premises set forth in Section 6.1 of the Summary (the " Premises "), which Premises are located in the Building defined in Section 6.2 of the Summary constructed on the Real Property. The outline of the floor plan of the Premises is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
1.1.2     Building and Real Property/Project . The Building is part of that certain office building project (" Project ") constructed on the Real Property (as defined below) known as "600 B Street". The term " Real Property ", as used in this Lease, shall mean, collectively, (i) the Building, (ii) any outside plaza areas, walkways, driveways, courtyards, public and private streets, transportation facilitation areas and other improvements and facilities now or hereafter constructed surrounding and/or servicing the Building, including the existing parking garage located beneath the Building and any other parking structures and/or facilities now or hereafter constructed by or for Landlord within the Project and servicing the Building and any other buildings which may be subsequently constructed within the Project (collectively, the " Parking Facilities "), which are designated from time to time by Landlord as common areas (or parking facilities, as the case may be) appurtenant to or servicing the Building and any such other buildings; (iii) any additional buildings, improvements, facilities, parking areas and structures and common areas which Landlord (and/or any common area association formed by Landlord or Landlord's assignee for the Project) may add thereto from time to time within or as part of the Project; and (iv) the land upon which any of the foregoing are situated.
1.1.3     Tenant's and Landlord's Rights . Tenant is hereby granted the right to the non-exclusive use of the common corridors and hallways, stairwells, elevators, restrooms and other public or common areas located within the Building, and the non-exclusive use of the areas located on the Real Property designated by Landlord from time to time as common areas for the Building; provided , however , that (i) Tenant's use thereof shall be subject to the following: (A) all laws, statutes, ordinances or other governmental rules, regulations or requirements now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated (collectively, “ Laws ”), (B) the provisions of any covenants, conditions and restrictions regarding the use thereof now or hereafter recorded against the Real Property (“ CC&Rs ”), and (C) such reasonable, non-discriminatory rules, regulations and restrictions as Landlord may make from time to time (which shall be provided in writing to Tenant), including, without limitation, the rules and regulations attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “ Rules and Regulations ”). Landlord confirms that there are currently no recorded CC&Rs affecting the Real Property. Further, Tenant may not go on the roof of Building without Landlord's prior consent (which may be withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion) and without otherwise being accompanied by a representative of Landlord. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to use any of the common areas of the Real Property, and the roof, risers and conduits of the Building for telecommunications and/or any other purposes, and to do any of the following, provided , however , in the course of taking such action, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to interfere with or adversely affect Tenant’s business operations at the Premises or parking rights (subject to events and circumstances outside of Landlord’s reasonable control): (1) make any changes, additions, improvements, repairs and/or replacements in or to the Real Property or any portion or elements thereof, including, without limitation, (x) changes in the location, size, shape and number of driveways, entrances, loading and unloading areas, ingress, egress, direction of traffic, landscaped areas, walkways, public and private streets, plazas, courtyards, transportation facilitation areas and common areas, parking spaces, parking structures and parking areas, and (y) expanding or decreasing the size of the Real Property and any common areas and other elements thereof, including adding or deleting buildings thereon and therefrom; (2) close temporarily any of the

common areas while engaged in making repairs, improvements or alterations to the Real Property; (3) form a common area association or associations under covenants, conditions and restrictions to own, manage, operate, maintain, repair and/or replace all or any portion of the landscaping, driveways, walkways, parking areas, public and private streets, plazas, courtyards, transportation facilitation areas and/or other common areas located outside of the Building and, subject to Article 4 below, include the common area assessments, fees and taxes charged by the association(s) and the cost of maintaining, managing, administering and operating the association(s), in Operating Expenses or Tax Expenses (as such terms are defined in Article 4 below); and (4) perform such other acts and make such other changes with respect to the Real Property as Landlord may, in the exercise of good faith business judgment, deem to be appropriate.
1.2     Condition of Premises . Except as expressly set forth in this Lease and in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (including, without, without limitation, Section 1 [AS-IS Condition] thereof), Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement, remodeling or refurbishment work or services related to the improvement, remodeling or refurbishment of the Premises, and Tenant shall accept the Premises in its " AS-IS " condition on the Lease Commencement Date.
1.3     Rentable Square Feet . The parties hereby stipulate that as of the date of this Lease, the Premises contain the rentable square feet set forth in Section 6.1 of the Summary, and such square footage amount is not subject to adjustment or remeasurement by Landlord or Tenant during the initial Lease Term, unless due to a revision in the physical boundaries of the Building. Accordingly, during the initial Lease Term, there shall be no adjustment in the Base Rent or other amounts set forth in this Lease which are determined based upon rentable square feet of the Premises, unless due to a revision in the physical boundaries of the Building.
1.4     Right of First Refusal . With respect to space that becomes available for lease to third parties on the floor of the Building which is directly adjacent to the floor(s) of the Premises (the “ Reserved Area ”), Tenant shall have an ongoing right of first refusal during the Lease Term (as the same may be extended pursuant to the Extension Option Rider attached hereto), as more particularly set forth in this Section 1.4 . Notwithstanding the foregoing (i) the lease term for Tenant’s lease of the Expansion Area (as defined below) pursuant to Tenant’s exercise of the right of first refusal shall commence only following the expiration or earlier termination of (A) any existing lease pertaining to the Expansion Area (the “ Existing Leases ”), and (B) if the Expansion Area is vacant as of the date of this Lease, the first lease pertaining to the Expansion Area entered into by Landlord after the date of this Lease (collectively, the “ Superior Leases ”), including any renewal or extension of any such existing or future lease, whether or not such renewal or extension is pursuant to an express written provision in such lease, and regardless of whether any such renewal or extension is consummated pursuant to a lease amendment or a new lease, and (ii) such first refusal right shall be subordinate and secondary to all rights of expansion, first refusal, first offer or similar rights granted to (X) the tenants of the Superior Leases, and (Y) any other tenant of the Real Property which right exists as of the date hereof (the rights described in items (i) and (ii), above to be known collectively as “ Superior Rights ”). Subject to Superior Rights, if Landlord receives from a bona fide third party an offer (or offers to a bona fide third party the right) to lease all or any part of the Reserved Area on terms acceptable to Landlord, Landlord agrees to deliver to Tenant a notice as set forth in this Section 1.4 (the “ Availability Notice ”). For purposes of this Section 1.4 , an email delivered to the email address set forth in Section 5 (Address of Tenant) of the Basic Lease Information (which email address for purposes of notices, shall be subject to change pursuant to Section 24.19 [Notices] below), with a confirmed receipt by Tenant or Tenant’s broker, shall be considered a delivered notice. Such Availability Notice shall set forth the rental rate and such other terms as are acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion (which will match the terms set forth in the offer received from or delivered to such bona fide third party) (the “ Expansion Terms ”), and shall set forth the portion of the Reserved Area offered to the third party and any additional area in the Building included in such offer (the “ Expansion Area ”). If Tenant, (i) within five (5) business days after receipt of the first (1 st ) Availability Notice, and (ii) within three (3) business days after receipt of any future Availability Notices, indicates in writing its agreement to lease the Expansion Area on the terms and conditions set forth in the Availability Notice, the Expansion Area shall be included within the Premises and leased to Tenant pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Availability Notice and otherwise on the terms and conditions of this Lease. Accordingly, the Base Rent payable under this Lease shall be increased by the amount of Base Rent attributable to the Expansion Area and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs and parking allocation shall be adjusted to reflect the addition of the Expansion Area. The lease term for the Expansion Area shall, unless otherwise provided in the Availability Notice as part of the Expansion Terms therein, expire coterminously with Tenant’s lease of the Premises, but in no event shall Tenant lease the Expansion Area for a period of less than twenty-four (24) months, unless otherwise agreed by Landlord. Tenant shall take

the Expansion Area in its “ AS-IS ” condition (unless otherwise provided in the Availability Notice as part of the Expansion Terms), and Tenant shall be entitled to construct improvements in the Expansion Area at Tenant’s expense, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Article 8 (Additions and Alterations) of this Lease. The parties shall promptly execute an amendment to this Lease stating the addition of the Expansion Area to the Premises, the Base Rent adjustments and such other modifications described above. If Tenant does not indicate, within five (5) business days after receipt of the first (1 st ) Availability Notice, or within three (3) business days after receipt of the second (2 nd ) Availability Notice as set forth below (if applicable), its agreement to lease the Expansion Area, Landlord thereafter shall have the right to lease the Expansion Area to any third party; provided , however , (i) that if the net effective rent payable by another prospective tenant would be less than ninety percent (90%) of the net effective rent specified in the Availability Notice (taking into account all economic terms of the proposed lease arrangement, including rental rate, free rent, tenant improvements and other allowances and concessions), then Landlord shall re-offer the Expansion Area to Tenant in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.4 (at the net effective rent offered to such other prospective tenant), prior to proceeding with such third-party lease, and (ii) if Landlord fails to lease the space to a third party within one hundred eighty (180) days following Tenant’s election not to lease the space, Tenant’s right shall again apply (unless and to the extent Landlord is then in active negotiations with a third party, in which event such 180-day period will be extended to allow such negotiations to continue). Tenant’s rights specified in this Section 1.4 are personal to the original named Tenant hereunder executing this Lease (the “ Original Tenant ”), and its Affiliates permitted pursuant to Section 14.7 (Affiliated Companies/Restructuring of Business Organization) below, and may not be assigned to or exercised by any other person or entity. Tenant’s right to exercise its right of first refusal is subject to (A) no breach or default by Tenant existing under this Lease or the Sublease at the time of Tenant’s exercise of the right of first refusal, (B) Landlord's lender’s approval of the Expansion Terms if required, and (C) Landlord’s review and approval of Tenant’s current financials upon Tenant’s exercise of its right of first refusal. Tenant may exercise its right of first refusal only if Tenant, together with all Affiliates, continues to occupy at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease. If Tenant fails to timely exercise its rights under this Section 1.4 in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, such rights shall be of no further force or effect as to the particular Availability Notice (but will remain in effect as to any subsequent availability of the Reserved Area, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 1.4 ). Time is of the essence in Tenant’s exercise of its rights hereunder.
ARTICLE 2     

LEASE TERM
2.1     Lease Term . The terms and provisions of this Lease shall be effective as of the date of execution and delivery hereof by Landlord and Tenant, provided that the term of this Lease (the " Lease Term ") shall be as set forth in Section 7.1 of the Summary and shall commence on the date (the " Lease Commencement Date ") set forth in Section 7.2 of the Summary (subject, however, to the terms of the Work Letter), and shall terminate on the date (the " Lease Expiration Date ") set forth in Section 7.3 of the Summary, unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any reason the Bridgepoint Lease (as defined in Section 2.2 [Sublease of the Premises Prior to the Lease Term] below) is terminated prior to the Bridgepoint Expiration Date (as defined in Section 2.2 below), then the Lease Commencement Date of this Lease shall be adjusted to be the day immediately following the day such early termination of the Bridgepoint Lease is effective (the “ Revised Lease Commencement Date ”), except that in such instance (i) the Lease Term will be extended to add the additional period of time commencing as of the Revised Lease Commencement Date and ending on April 30, 2020, (ii) the Base Rent payable under this Lease during the period from the Revised Lease Commencement Date through April 30, 2020 will be the same rate payable by Bridgepoint under the Bridgepoint Lease during such time period, (iii) the Base Year will be 2010 during such time period (but will be adjusted to 2020 effective as of May 1, 2020) and (iv) effective as of May 1, 2020, Base Rent will be payable in accordance with the rent schedule set forth in Section 8 of the Summary of Basic Lease Information. For clarity, the Lease Expiration Date of this Lease shall remain as set forth in Section 7.3 of the Summary of Basic Lease Information. In the event of a default by Bridgepoint under the Bridgepoint Lease, Landlord will provide a copy of any notice of default sent to Bridgepoint to Tenant, and Tenant will have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default on behalf of Bridgepoint and will be provided the same notice and cure period provided to Bridgepoint under the Bridgepoint Lease. If Tenant cures such default, Landlord will accept such cure and will not terminate the Bridgepoint Lease by reason of such default. Landlord further agrees that so long as no uncured default by Bridgepoint occurs under the Bridgepoint Lease (following notice and cure, including the notice and opportunity to cure extended to Tenant as noted above), Landlord will not enter into an

agreement to voluntarily terminate the Bridgepoint Lease. If and to the extent an uncured default by Bridgepoint exists under the Bridgepoint Lease (following notice and cure, including the notice and opportunity to cure extended to Tenant as noted above), Landlord shall have the right to enter into an agreement to terminate the Bridgepoint Lease on such terms as Landlord may elect, provided that if and to the extent any settlement payment by Bridgepoint includes amounts for future rent owed under the Bridgepoint Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to a credit (as defined below, “ Settlement Credit ”) toward Tenant’s increased Base Rent obligations under this Lease [ i.e. , the adjusted amount of rent payable by Tenant as set forth in this Section 2.1 in excess of the rent Tenant would have otherwise been obligated to pay under the Sublease].

Year, a statement (the " Statement ") which shall state the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount, if any, of any Excess. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year ending during the Lease Term, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, the full amount of the Excess for such Expense Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as "Estimated Excess", as that term is defined in Section 4.3.3 of this Lease. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord from enforcing its rights under this Article 4 . Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Share of the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord an amount as calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3.1 of this Lease. The provisions of this Section 4.3.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term for a period of eighteen (18) months, except with respect to real property taxes or assessments which are properly payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease, but for which Landlord receives a tax bill following the expiration of such eighteen (18) month period.
4.3.3     Statement of Estimated Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs . In addition, Landlord shall endeavor to give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the " Estimate Statement ") which shall set forth Landlord's reasonable estimate (the " Estimate ") of what the total amount of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs allocated to the Building pursuant to Section 4.3.4 below for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the estimated Excess (the " Estimated Excess ") as calculated by comparing (i) Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses allocated to the Building, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses allocated to the Building for the Expense Base Year, (ii) Tenant's Share of Tax Expenses allocated to the Building, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to Tenant's Share of Tax Expenses allocated to the Building for the Tax Expense Base Year, and (iii) Tenant's Share of Utilities Costs allocated to the Building, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to Tenant's Share of Utilities Costs allocated to the Building for the Utilities Base Year. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Excess under this Article 4 . If pursuant to the Estimate Statement an Estimated Excess is calculated for the then-current Expense Year, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, a fraction of the Estimated Excess for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4.3.3 ). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year to the month of such payment, both months inclusive, and shall have twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished, Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.
4.3.4     Allocation of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs to Building . The parties acknowledge that the Building may in the future be part of a multi-office building project consisting of the Building and such other buildings as Landlord may elect to construct and include as part of the Real Property from time to time (collectively, the " Other Buildings "), and that certain of the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Real Property ( i.e. ,   the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs) shall be shared among the Building and/or such Other Buildings, while certain other costs and expenses which are solely attributable to the Building and such Other Buildings, as applicable, shall be allocated directly to the Building and the Other Buildings, respectively. Accordingly, as set forth in Sections  4.1 and 4.2 above, Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs are determined annually for the Real Property as a whole, and a portion of the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs, which portion shall be determined by Landlord on an equitable basis, shall be allocated to the Building (as opposed to the tenants of the Other Buildings), and such portion so allocated shall be the amount of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs payable with respect to the Building upon which Tenant's Share shall be calculated. Such portion of the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs allocated to the Building shall include all Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs which are attributable solely to the Building, and an equitable portion of the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs attributable to the Real Property as a whole. As an example of such allocation with respect to Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs, it is anticipated that Landlord may receive separate tax bills which separately assess the improvements component of Tax Expenses for each building in the Project and/or Landlord may receive separate utilities bills from the utilities companies identifying the Utilities Costs for certain of the utilities costs directly incurred by each such building (as measured by separate meters installed for each such building), and such separately assessed Tax Expenses and separately metered Utilities Costs shall be calculated for and allocated separately to each such applicable building. In addition, in the event Landlord elects, at its sole option, to subdivide certain common area portions of the

Real Property such as landscaping, public and private streets, driveways, walkways, courtyards, plazas, transportation facilitation areas, accessways and/or parking areas into a separate parcel or parcels of land (and/or separately convey all or any of such parcels to a common area association to own, operate and/or maintain same), the Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs for such common area parcels of land may be aggregated and then reasonably allocated by Landlord to the Building and such Other Buildings on an equitable basis as Landlord (and/or any applicable covenants, conditions and restrictions for any such common area association) shall provide from time to time.
4.3.5     Cap on Controllable Expenses . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 4 , the aggregate “Controllable Expenses” (as hereinafter defined) included in Operating Expenses in any Expense Year after the Expense Base Year shall not increase by more than six percent (6%) on an annual, non-cumulative basis, over the actual aggregate Controllable Expenses included in Operating Expenses for any preceding Expense Year (including the Expense Base Year), but with no such limit on the amount of Controllable Expenses which may be included in the Operating Expenses incurred during the Expense Base Year. For purposes of this Section 4.3.5 , “ Controllable Expenses ” shall mean all Operating Expenses except insurance carried by Landlord with respect to the Real Property and/or the operation thereof. The provisions of this Section 4.3.5 do not apply to Tax Expenses or Utilities Costs.
4.4     Taxes and Other Charges for Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible . Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes or assessments required to be paid by Landlord (except to the extent included in Tax Expenses by Landlord), excluding state, local and federal personal or corporate income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources and estate and inheritance taxes, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties hereto, when:
4.4.1    said taxes are measured by or reasonably attributable to the cost or value of Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises, or by the cost or value of any leasehold improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, to the extent the cost or value of such leasehold improvements exceeds the cost or value of a building standard build-out as determined by Landlord regardless of whether title to such improvements shall be vested in Tenant or Landlord;
4.4.2    said taxes are assessed upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Real Property (including the Parking Facilities); or
4.4.3    said taxes are assessed upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
4.5     Late Charges . If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within three (3) days of the due date therefor, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount due plus any attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due hereunder; provided , however , no late charge shall be payable by Tenant with respect to the first (1 st ) time in any twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term hereof that Tenant is late in the payment of Rent hereunder, provided , that, such payment is made within ten (10) days of the date such payment is due. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies hereunder, at law and/or in equity and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner. In addition to the late charge described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid by the date that they are due shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate (the " Interest Rate ") equal to the lesser of (i) the "Prime Rate" or "Reference Rate" announced from time to time by the Bank of America (or such reasonable comparable national banking institution as selected by Landlord in the event Bank of America ceases to exist or publish a Prime Rate or Reference Rate), plus four percent (4%), or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
4.6     Audit Rights . In the event Tenant disputes the amount of the Operating Expenses set forth in the Statement for the particular Calendar Year delivered by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to Section 4.3.2 above, Tenant shall have the right, but not more frequently than once during any Calendar Year, at Tenant’s cost, after sixty (60) days prior written notice to Landlord, to have Tenant’s authorized employees or agents inspect, at Landlord’s office during normal business

hours, Landlord’s books, records and supporting documents concerning the Operating Expenses set forth in such Statement; provided , however , Tenant shall have no right to conduct such inspection, have an audit performed by the Accountant as described below, or object to or otherwise dispute the amount of the Operating Expenses set forth in any such Statement, unless Tenant notifies Landlord of such objection and dispute, completes such inspection, and has the Accountant commence and complete such audit within nine (9) months immediately following Landlord’s delivery of the particular Statement in question (the “ Review Period ”); provided , further, that notwithstanding any such timely objection, dispute, inspection, and/or audit, and as a condition precedent to Tenant’s exercise of its right of objection, dispute, inspection and/or audit as set forth in this Section 4.6 , Tenant shall not be permitted to withhold payment of, and Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord, the full amounts as required by the provisions of this Article 4 in accordance with such Statement. However, such payment may be made under protest pending the outcome of any audit which may be performed by the Accountant as described below. In connection with any such inspection by Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with each other so that such inspection can be performed pursuant to a mutually acceptable schedule, in an expeditious manner and without undue interference with Landlord’s operation and management of the Building. If after such inspection and/or request for documentation, Tenant still disputes the amount of the Operating Expenses set forth in the Statement, Tenant shall have the right, within the Review Period, to cause an independent certified public accountant which is not paid on a contingency basis and which is mutually approved by Landlord and Tenant (the “ Accountant ”) to complete an audit of Landlord’s books and records pertaining to Operating Expenses to determine the proper amount of the Operating Expenses incurred and amounts payable by Tenant for the Calendar Year which is the subject of such Statement. Such audit by the Accountant shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant cannot mutually agree as to the identity of the Accountant within ninety (90) days after Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant desires an audit to be performed, then the Accountant shall be one of the “Big 4” accounting firms, which is not paid on a contingency basis and which is selected by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord. If such audit reveals that Landlord has over-charged Tenant, then within ninety (90) days after the results of such audit are made available to Landlord, Landlord shall reimburse to Tenant the amount of such over-charge. If the audit reveals that the Tenant was under-charged, then within ninety (90) days after the results of such audit are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall reimburse to Landlord the amount of such under-charge. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such audit unless it is subsequently determined that Landlord’s original Statement which was the subject of such audit was in error to Tenant’s disadvantage by seven percent (7%) or more of the total Operating Expenses which was the subject of such audit. The payment by Tenant of any amounts pursuant to this Article 4 shall not preclude Tenant from questioning the correctness of any Statement provided by Landlord at any time during the Review Period, but the failure of Tenant to object thereto, conduct and complete its inspection and have the Accountant conduct and complete the audit as described above prior to the expiration of the Review Period shall be conclusively deemed Tenant’s approval of the Statement in question and the amount of Operating Expenses shown thereon. In connection with any inspection and/or audit conducted by Tenant pursuant to this Section 4.6 , Tenant agrees to keep, and to cause all of Tenant’s employees and consultants and the Accountant to keep, all of Landlord’s books and records and the audit, and all information pertaining thereto and the results thereof, strictly confidential, and in connection therewith, Tenant shall cause such employees, consultants and the Accountant to execute such reasonable confidentiality agreements as Landlord may require prior to conducting any such inspections and/or audits.

5.4     Asbestos . Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has advised Tenant that the Building contains or, because of its age, is likely to contain, asbestos. Reports indicate that such asbestos is present in various locations throughout the Building. Upon Tenant’s request, Landlord will make available for review by Tenant at the Project during normal business hours (without warranty) copies of any current asbestos management plans, inspection reports, test results or other similar documents in Landlord’s possession relating to the presence of asbestos at the Building.  To the extent such reports or documents indicate the presence of asbestos at the Building, this Section 5.2 shall constitute notice to Tenant as required by the California Health & Safety Code.  In connection with performing any work that may disturb asbestos at the Building, Tenant shall comply, at its cost, with any applicable laws or asbestos management plans relating to the Building.  Tenant shall also comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations requiring disclosure to employees or invitees of the presence of asbestos or other hazardous materials at or around the Premises or the Building. Landlord has no special knowledge of the general procedures or handling restrictions to minimize or prevent the disturbance, release or exposure to asbestos or of the potential health risks that may result from any exposure to asbestos. Tenant is encouraged to contact local or state public health agencies for further information. If it is determined at any time that asbestos exists within the Premises, and such asbestos was not brought to the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees or contractors, Landlord shall cause such asbestos to be remediated at Landlord’s sole cost in compliance with applicable environmental laws.

invoice, at actual cost, and (iii) in order to prevent "double counting" of Utilities Costs payable by Tenant under the terms of the Lease, it is understood and agreed that if and to the extent utilities provided to Tenant are separately metered and paid for by Tenant, there shall be excluded from Utilities Costs payable by Tenant under this Lease the costs of such utilities provided to all tenant spaces of the Building ( i.e. , if Tenant's electricity is separately metered and paid by Tenant, Tenant shall not pay for any electricity provided to tenant spaces at the Building), and further Tenant shall receive a credit against Base Rent for the amount of Utilities Costs included in the Utilities Costs during the Utilities Base Year, as reasonably determined by Landlord based on reasonably available evidence. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord and/or Tenant may from time to time be requested or required to obtain, report and/or disclose certain energy consumption information with regard to the Premises, which may include, without limitation, benchmarking data for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager and information relating to compliance with "green building" initiatives, including, if applicable, the Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification program.  Tenant shall throughout the Term of this Lease, comply with all Federal, State or local laws, rules and regulations relating to consumption of utilities, energy or energy efficiency (as they may be in enacted or in effect from time to time, “ Energy Regulations ”), and Tenant shall, upon request by Landlord or Landlord’s lender, deliver and/or disclose such information regarding the consumption of utilities at the Premises as may be required to comply with applicable Energy Regulations.  Further, Tenant authorizes Landlord to disclose such information and data regarding the Premises as may be requested or required from time to time to comply with Energy Regulations.
6.4     Interruption of Use . Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for damages, by abatement of Rent (except as otherwise specifically set forth in Section 6.6 below) or otherwise, for failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any service (including telephone and telecommunication services), or for any diminution in the quality or quantity thereof, when such failure or delay or diminution is occasioned, in whole or in part, by repairs, replacements, or improvements, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by inability to secure electricity, gas, water, or other fuel at the Building or Real Property after reasonable effort to do so, by any accident or casualty whatsoever, by act or default of Tenant or other parties, or by any other cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control; and such failures or delays or diminution shall never be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant's use and possession of the Premises or relieve Tenant from paying Rent (except as otherwise specifically set forth in Section 6.6 below) or performing any of its obligations under this Lease. Furthermore, Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of, or injury to, property or for injury to, or interference with, Tenant's business, including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring, through or in connection with or incidental to a failure to furnish any of the services or utilities as set forth in this Article 6 .

Charges for any utilities or service for which Tenant is required to pay from time to time hereunder, shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder and shall be billed on a monthly basis.
6.6     Abatement of Rent When Tenant Is Prevented From Using Premises . In the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, for five (5) consecutive business days, or after ten (10) non-consecutive business days within any twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term (the “ Eligibility Period ”), as a result of (i) any failure by Landlord to provide to the Premises any of the essential utilities and services required to be provided in Sections 6.1.1 , 6.1.2 , or 6.1.4 above, or (ii) any failure by Landlord to provide access to the Premises, or (iii) any failure by Landlord to perform any repairs required to be performed by Landlord under Section 7.2 below, within a reasonable time after Landlord has received notice from Tenant of the need for such repairs, but in no event longer than thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as is reasonably required for such repair work if Landlord diligently commences such repair work within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes same to completion), or (iv) any Construction (as defined in Section 24.29 below) undertaken by Landlord pursuant to Section 24.29 below, then Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, from and after the first (1 st ) day following the Eligibility Period and continuing until such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable square feet of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises; provided , however , that Tenant shall not be entitled to abatement or reduction of Rent to the extent the matters described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) above arise out of or

results from a matter outside of Landlord’s reasonable control (which shall exclude repairs or restorations which could be arranged by Landlord through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts consistent with generally accepted commercial office building maintenance practices). To the extent Tenant shall be entitled to abatement of rent because of a damage or destruction pursuant to Article 11 or a taking pursuant to Article 12 , then the terms of this Section 6.6 shall not be applicable.
6.7     Indoor Air Quality . Landlord shall, as part of Operating Expenses, comply with any current or future laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations concerning office building indoor air quality, promulgated by any government authority having jurisdiction over the Building, but only to the extent applicable to Landlord and the Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have no liability with respect to maintaining indoor air quality to the extent that the air quality issues are caused by (a) emissions from furnishings, fixtures, or equipment installed in the Premises; (b) interference with the air flow requirements of the ventilation rate procedure caused by the Tenant Improvements or Alterations; (c) inability to adapt the Building's HVAC system, based on then current technology, to meet the Indoor Air Quality Standard; (d) decreased quality of the air outside the Building; or (e) the acts or omissions of Tenant or its employees or agents.

ARTICLE 8     

ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS
8.1     Landlord's Consent to Alterations . Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively, the " Alterations ") without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by Landlord; provided , however , Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion with respect to any Alterations which may affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment or which can be seen from outside the Premises. Tenant shall pay for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs and expenses of the Alterations, and shall pay to Landlord a Landlord supervision fee of five percent (5%) of the cost of the Alterations. The construction of the initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8 . Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, without Landlord’s consent, but upon three (3) business days prior written notice to Landlord, to make strictly cosmetic, non-structural additions and alterations to the Premises that do not (i) involve the expenditure of more than $75,000.00 in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term, (ii) affect the appearance of the Building or any areas outside the Premises, (iii) affect or impact in any way the systems or structure of the Building, or (iv) require the issuance of a building permit.
8.2     Manner of Construction . Landlord may impose, as a condition of its consent to all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that Tenant utilize for such purposes only contractors, materials, mechanics and materialmen approved by Landlord; provided , however , Landlord may impose such requirements as Landlord may determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, with respect to any work affecting the structural components of the Building or Systems and Equipment (including designating specific contractors to perform such work). Tenant shall construct such Alterations and perform such repairs in conformance with any and all applicable rules and regulations of any federal, state, county or municipal code or ordinance (including, California Energy Code, Title 24) and pursuant to a valid building permit, issued by the city in which the Real Property is located, and in conformance with Landlord's construction rules and regulations. Landlord's approval of the plans, specifications and working drawings for Tenant's Alterations shall create no responsibility or liability on the part of Landlord for their completeness, design sufficiency, or compliance with all laws, rules and regulations of governmental agencies or authorities. All work with respect to any Alterations must be done in a good and workmanlike manner and diligently prosecuted to completion to the end that the Premises shall at all times be a complete unit except during the period of work. In performing the work of any such Alterations, Tenant shall have the work performed in such manner as not to obstruct access to the Building or Real Property or the common areas for any other tenant of the Real Property, and as not to obstruct the business of Landlord or other tenants of the Real Property, or interfere with the labor force working at the Real Property. If Tenant makes any Alterations, Tenant agrees to carry "Builder's All Risk" insurance in an amount approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such other insurance as Landlord may require, it being understood and agreed that all of such Alterations shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to Article 10 of this Lease immediately upon completion thereof. In addition, Landlord may, in its discretion, require Tenant to obtain a lien and completion bond or some alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-obligee. Upon completion of any Alterations, Tenant shall (i) cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of the county in which the Real Property is located in accordance with Section 3093 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, (ii) deliver to the management office of the Real Property a reproducible copy of the "as built" drawings of the Alterations, and (iii) deliver to Landlord evidence of payment, contractors' affidavits and full and final waivers of all liens for labor, services or materials.
8.3     Landlord's Property . All Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises, from time to time, shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and shall be and become the property of Landlord. Tenant’s removal and restoration obligations shall be as set forth in Section 15.2 (Required Removables) below.
8.4     Wi-Fi Network . Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event Tenant desires to install wireless intranet, Internet and communications network (" Wi-Fi Network ") in the Premises for the use by Tenant and its

employees, then the same shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.4 (in addition to the other provisions of this Article 8 ). In the event Landlord consents to Tenant's installation of such Wi-Fi Network, Tenant shall, in accordance with Article 15 below, remove the Wi-Fi Network from the Premises prior to the termination of the Lease, unless Tenant requests and obtains Landlord’s written agreement, at the time of Landlord’s approval of the installation of the Wi-Fi Network, that such Wi-Fi Network needs not be removed. Tenant shall use the Wi-Fi Network so as not to cause any interference to other tenants in the Building or to other tenants at the Real Property or with any other tenant's communication equipment, and not to damage the Real Property or interfere with the normal operation of the Real Property and Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including attorneys' fees) arising out of Tenant's failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 8.4 , except to the extent same is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord Party (as defined in Section 10.1 [Indemnification and Waiver] below) and which is not covered by the insurance carried by Tenant under this Lease (or which would not be covered by the insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease). Should any interference occur, Tenant shall take all necessary steps as soon as reasonably possible and no later than three (3) calendar days following such occurrence to correct such interference. If such interference continues after such three (3) day period, Tenant shall immediately cease operating such Wi-Fi Network until such interference is corrected or remedied to Landlord’s satisfaction. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has granted and/or may grant telecommunication rights to other tenants and occupants of the Building and Real Property and to telecommunication service providers and in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any interference of the same with such Wi-Fi Network. Landlord makes no representation that the Wi-Fi Network will be able to receive or transmit communication signals without interference or disturbance. Tenant shall (i) be solely responsible for any damage caused as a result of the Wi-Fi Network, (ii) promptly pay any tax, license or permit fees charged pursuant to any laws or regulations in connection with the installation, maintenance or use of the Wi-Fi Network and comply with all precautions and safeguards recommended by all governmental authorities, (iii) pay for all necessary repairs, replacements to or maintenance of the Wi-Fi Network, and (iv) be responsible for any modifications, additions or repairs to the Building or Real Property, including without limitation, Building or Real Property systems or infrastructure, which are required by reason of the installation, operation or removal of Tenant’s Wi-Fi Network. Should Landlord be required to retain professionals to research any interference issues that may arise and confirm Tenant's compliance with the terms of this Section 8.4 , in the event that Tenant is finally determined to have violated the terms of this Section 8.4 , Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the costs incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord's retention of such professionals, the research of such interference issues and confirmation of Tenant's compliance with the terms of this Section 8.4 within twenty (20) days after the date Landlord submits to Tenant an invoice for such costs, which costs shall not exceed One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) in the aggregate per year (the " Reimbursement Cap "); provided , however , that to the extent that it is determined that Tenant has failed to perform its obligations under this Section 8.4 , the Reimbursement Cap shall not apply, and Tenant shall be responsible for reimbursing Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in connection with Landlord's retention of such professionals, the research of such interference issues and confirmation of Tenant's compliance with the terms of this Section 8.4 . This reimbursement obligation is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights or remedies Landlord may have in the event of a breach or default by Tenant under this Lease.
8.5     Additional Tenant Security Systems . Subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications and the terms of this Lease regarding Alterations to the Premises, Tenant shall be permitted at its sole expense to install or utilize its own security measures (such as an intercom or security system), so long as such systems and services are compatible with Building systems. Tenant shall provide Landlord with reasonable means of accessing all areas of the Premises in the event of an emergency, including, without limitation, providing Landlord with master pass keys and bypass mechanisms for electronic doors. Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any cleaning or janitorial service to any areas which are not generally accessible to Landlord and its cleaning contractors. If Landlord determines in its sole but reasonable discretion that an emergency in the Building or the Premises requires Landlord to gain access to Tenant’s Premises, Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to take such action as may be necessary to gain access, including to forcibly enter Premises if it is not otherwise generally accessible. In such event, Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever to Tenant as a result of such forced entry, and Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses for repairing or reconstructing any entrance, corridor, door or other portions of the Building or the Premises and shall also be responsible for any and all damage to the Building arising out of or resulting from any delay or difficulty in accessing the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Landlord be liable for personal injury, property damage or any other losses or damage for any error or failure of the security access measures in place at the Building from time to time.

ARTICLE 9     

COVENANT AGAINST LIENS
Tenant has no authority or power to cause or permit any lien or encumbrance of any kind whatsoever, whether created by act of Tenant, operation of law or otherwise, to attach to or be placed upon the Real Property, Building or Premises, and any and all liens and encumbrances created by Tenant shall attach to Tenant's interest only. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notice which it deems necessary for protection from such liens. Tenant covenants and agrees not to suffer or permit any lien of mechanics or materialmen or others to be placed against the Real Property, the Building or the Premises with respect to work or services claimed to have been performed for or materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant or the Premises, and, in case of any such lien attaching or notice of any lien, Tenant covenants and agrees to cause it to be immediately released and removed of record. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, if any such lien is not released and removed on or before the date notice of such lien is delivered by Landlord to Tenant, Landlord, at its sole option, may immediately take all action necessary to release and remove such lien, without any duty to investigate the validity thereof, and all sums, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, incurred by Landlord in connection with such lien shall be deemed Additional Rent under this Lease and shall immediately be due and payable by Tenant.
ARTICLE 10

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may elect not to obtain such physical damage insurance (including, without limitation, sprinkler leakage coverage and earthquake sprinkler leakage coverage) covering Tenant’s property from a third-party insurer, in which event Tenant waives any right it may have against Landlord with respect to any damage or loss that would otherwise have been covered by the insurance coverage described in this Section 10.3.2 had the same been obtained through a third party insurer, and Tenant shall also be solely responsible for any deductible applicable thereto.

10.4     Subrogation . Landlord and Tenant agree to have their respective insurance companies issuing property damage insurance waive any rights of subrogation that such companies may have against Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, so long as the insurance carried by Landlord and Tenant, respectively, is not invalidated thereby. As long as such waivers of subrogation are contained in their respective insurance policies, Landlord and Tenant hereby waive any right that either may have against the other on account of any loss or damage to their respective property to the extent such loss or damage is insurable under policies of insurance for fire and all risk coverage, theft, public liability, or other similar insurance.
10.5     Additional Insurance Obligations . Tenant shall carry and maintain during the entire Lease Term, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, increased amounts of the insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Article 10 , and such other reasonable types of insurance coverage and in such reasonable amounts covering the Premises and Tenant's operations therein, as may be reasonably requested by Landlord, but only to the extent such additional insurance is market standard in the city and state in which the Building is located and in no event exceeding types and amounts of coverage customarily required by comparable landlords with respect to comparable tenants and uses.
10.6     Landlord’s Insurance . Landlord shall maintain in effect at all times commercial general liability and property/casualty insurance coverage consistent with the coverage customarily carried by comparable landlords of Comparable Buildings, or as Landlord may from time to time be required to carry to satisfy the requirements of its lender.

ARTICLE 11     

DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
11.1     Repair of Damage to Premises by Landlord . Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any damage to the Premises resulting from fire or any other casualty. If the Premises or any common areas of the Building or Real Property serving or providing access to the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord's reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article 11 , restore the base, shell, and core of the Premises and such common areas. Such restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the base, shell, and core of the Premises and common areas prior to the casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Real Property, or the lessor of a ground or underlying lease with respect to the Real Property and/or the Building, or any other modifications to the common areas deemed desirable by Landlord, provided access to the Premises and any common restrooms serving the Premises shall not be materially impaired. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant's insurance required under Sections 10.3.2(ii) and (iii) of this Lease, and Landlord shall repair any injury or damage to the tenant improvements and alterations installed in the Premises and shall return such tenant improvements and alterations to their original condition; provided that if the cost of such repair by Landlord exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant's insurance carrier, as assigned by Tenant, the cost of such repairs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord prior to Landlord's repair of the damage. However, if Tenant wishes to take full responsibility for restoring the tenant improvements within the Premises, then Tenant shall not be obligated to assign to Landlord insurance proceeds attributable thereto and Landlord’s restoration obligations hereunder shall be deemed to be satisfied as of the date Landlord delivers to Tenant the base, shell and core of the Premises as restored. In connection with such repairs and replacements, Tenant shall, prior to the commencement

11.2     Landlord's Option to Repair . Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises, the Building and/or any other portion of the Real Property and instead terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant ninety (90) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or cause, whether or not the Premises are affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred twenty (120) days of the date of damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums); (ii) the holder of any mortgage on the Real Property or ground or underlying lessor with respect to the Real Property and/or the Building shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground or underlying lease, as the case may be; or (iii) the damage is not fully covered, except for deductible amounts, by Landlord's insurance policies; provided , however , that (A) if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord’s termination right as provided above, and (B) the repair of such damage cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within two hundred forty (240) days after the date of the damage, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice thereof to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after being notified of such damage, which termination shall be effective as of the date of such termination notice thereof to Landlord. Furthermore, if neither Landlord nor Tenant has terminated this Lease, and the repairs are not substantially completed within the later of the time period specified in the Damage Repair Estimate or two hundred forty (240) days after the necessity for repairs as a result of such damage becomes known to Landlord, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease during the first five (5) business days of each calendar month following the end of such period until such time as the repairs are substantially complete, by notice to Landlord (the " Damage Termination Notice "), effective as of the date of the Damage Termination Notice (the " Damage Termination Date "). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant delivers a Damage Termination Notice to Landlord, then Landlord shall have the right to suspend the occurrence of the Damage Termination Date for a period of thirty (30) days by delivering to Tenant, within five (5) business days of Landlord's receipt of the Damage Termination Notice, a certificate of Landlord's contractor responsible for the repair of the damage stating that it is such contractor's reasonable judgment that the repairs shall be substantially completed (i.e., completed other than "punch list" items) within thirty (30) days after the Damage Termination Date. If repairs shall be substantially completed prior to the expiration of such thirty-day period, then the Damage Termination Notice shall be of no force or effect, but if the repairs shall not be substantially completed within such thirty-day period, this Lease shall terminate as of the expiration of such thirty (30) day period. In addition, if the Premises or the Building is destroyed or damaged to any substantial extent during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, then notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 11 , Landlord and Tenant shall each have the option to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other party of the exercise of such option within thirty (30) days after such damage or destruction, in which event this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of such notice. Upon any such termination of this Lease pursuant to this Section 11.2 , Tenant shall pay the Base Rent and Additional Rent, properly apportioned up to such date of termination, and both parties hereto shall thereafter be freed and discharged of all further obligations hereunder, except as provided for in provisions of this Lease which by their terms survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.
11.3     Waiver of Statutory Provisions . The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 11 , constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part of the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Real Property, and any statute or regulation of the state in which the Real Property is located, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or any part of the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Real Property.

If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable square feet of the Premises is taken, or if access to the Premises is substantially impaired, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon ninety (90) days' notice, provided such notice is given no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such taking. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award or payment in connection therewith, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant's personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claim does not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Real Property or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination, or the date of such taking, whichever shall first occur. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs shall be proportionately abated. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 12 , in the event of a temporary taking of all or any portion of the Premises for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less, then this Lease shall not terminate but the Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs shall be abated for the period of such taking in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking.

14.2.6    The proposed Transfer would cause Landlord to be in violation of another lease or agreement to which Landlord is a party, or would give an occupant of the Real Property a right to cancel its lease;
14.2.7    The terms of the proposed Transfer will allow the Transferee to exercise a right of renewal, right of expansion, right of first offer, or other similar right held by Tenant (or will allow the Transferee to occupy space leased by Tenant pursuant to any such right); or
14.2.8    Only if and to the extent there then exists suitable available space in the Building for the proposed Transferee and either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee, (i) occupies space in the Project at the time of the request for consent, (ii) is negotiating with Landlord to lease space in the Project at such time, or (iii) has negotiated with Landlord during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Transfer Notice.

If this Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent reserved herein shall be prorated on the basis of the number of rentable square feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of rentable square feet contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same. If Landlord declines, or fails to elect in a timely manner to recapture the Subject Space under this Section 14.4 , then, provided Landlord has consented to the proposed Transfer, Tenant shall be entitled to proceed to transfer the Subject Space to the proposed Transferee, subject to provisions of the last paragraph of Section 14.2 of this Lease. If Landlord gives Tenant a recapture notice pursuant to this Section 14.4 , then Tenant shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to Landlord within five (5) business days of Tenant receiving Landlord’s recapture notice, to rescind its Transfer Notice in which event Landlord’s recapture notice shall be null and void, and Landlord shall not have any right to terminate the Lease or exercise an option to sublease all or a portion of the Premises as set forth in this Section 14.4 .
14.5     Effect of Transfer .

If Tenant fails to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by such removal, Landlord may do so and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost thereof upon submission of an invoice therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant does not wish to be obligated to remove any certain Required Removables from the Premises and/or the Building at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term as set forth herein, Tenant shall have the right to request, in connection with its approval of any construction or installation by or on behalf of Tenant, that Tenant be entitled to leave such certain Required Removables in place. If Landlord agrees in writing prior to installation of a Required Removable that Tenant shall not be obligated to remove such Required Removable and/or restore such portion(s) of the Premises and/or the Building, then Tenant shall not be so obligated.

ARTICLE 16     

HOLDING OVER
If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term hereof, with or without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such case Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease. Such month-to-month tenancy shall be subject to every other term, covenant and agreement contained herein. Landlord hereby expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Landlord provides Tenant with at least thirty (30) days prior notice that Landlord has identified a tenant for the Premises and will incur loss or damage if Tenant fails to timely vacate the Premises, and if Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the later of (a) the date of expiration of such thirty (30) day period, or (b) the date of termination or expiration of this Lease, then in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel approved in writing by Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender, and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.
ARTICLE 17

Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. Failure of Tenant to timely execute and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception. Failure by Tenant to so deliver such estoppel certificate shall be a material default of the provisions of this Lease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant’s agreement to enter into a written agreement to subordinate its interest under this Lease to a lien or ground lease not in existence as of the date of this Lease shall be conditioned upon the holder of such lien, or a ground lessor, as applicable, confirming in writing that Tenant’s leasehold interest hereunder shall not be disturbed so long as no default by Tenant exists under this Lease. Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage, or if any such other ground or underlying lease is terminated, to attorn, without any deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure sale, or to the lessors of such other ground or underlying lease, as the case may be, if so requested to do so by such purchaser or lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or lessor as the lessor under this Lease. Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days of request by Landlord, execute such reasonable further instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any such mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases. Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale. Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the current lender holding a lien on the Real Property as of the date hereof a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (“ SNDA ”) in favor of Tenant with respect to this Lease, in the current lender’s standard form (with revisions as agreed upon by Tenant and such lender), within thirty (30) days following the full execution and delivery hereof. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any fees charged to Landlord in obtaining such SNDA for Tenant (including any processing fees or costs charged by the current lender); provided , however , so long as Tenant does not request material changes to the current lender’s standard form SNDA, resulting in more than two (2) drafts, Tenant shall only be required to reimburse Landlord a maximum of $1,500.00 in connection with requesting the SNDA for Tenant.
ARTICLE 19

19.2     Landlord's Remedies Upon Default . Upon the occurrence of any such default, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever.
19.2.1    Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor; and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:
(i)    The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii)    The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

(iii)    The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iv)    Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, specifically including but not limited to, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant; and
(v)    At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
The term "rent" as used in this Section 19.2 shall be deemed to be and to mean all sums of every nature required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, whether to Landlord or to others.

19.2.2    Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.
19.2.3    Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform or otherwise cure any such obligation, provision, covenant or condition on Tenant's part to be observed or performed (and may enter the Premises for such purposes).

Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within fifteen (15) days after delivery by Landlord to Tenant of statements therefor: (i) sums equal to expenditures reasonably made and obligations incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord's performance or cure of any of Tenant's obligations pursuant to the provisions of Section 19.2.3 above; and (ii) sums equal to all expenditures made and obligations incurred by Landlord in collecting or attempting to collect the Rent or in enforcing or attempting to enforce any rights of Landlord under this Lease or pursuant to law, including, without limitation, all legal fees and other amounts so expended.

19.5     Waiver of Default .

19.6     Efforts to Relet .

19.8     Consequential Damages . In no event shall Landlord or Tenant ever be liable for any indirect or consequential damages or loss of profits or the like under this Lease from any cause whatsoever, except to the extent set forth in Article 16 (Holding Over) above.

If Tenant defaults with respect to any provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any amount that Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount, and Tenant's failure to do so shall be a default under this Lease. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit, or any balance thereof, shall be returned to Tenant, or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder, within sixty (60) days following the expiration of the Lease Term. Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in force, which provide that Landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by Tenant or to clean the Premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage, foreseeable or unforeseeable, caused by the act or omission of Tenant or any officer, employee, agent or invitee of Tenant.
ARTICLE 21     

COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way conflict with any Laws. At its sole cost and expense, Tenant shall promptly comply with all such governmental measures and requirements, provided , however , if and to the extent the required work requires the making of capital improvements and the need for such work does not arise out of or result from Tenant’s alterations to or manner of use of the Premises ( i.e. , a use other than general office use), Landlord shall arrange for such work and the cost thereof shall be included in Operating Expenses subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Lease. If the required work arises out of or results from Tenant’s alterations or manner of use of the Premises, then Tenant shall pay the entire cost of such required work upon demand, provided that Landlord will arrange for the performance of any capital improvements and bill the cost thereof to Tenant as referenced herein. In addition, Tenant shall fully comply with all present or future programs intended to manage parking, transportation or traffic in and around the Real Property, and in connection therewith, Tenant shall take responsible action for the transportation planning and management of all employees located at the Premises by working directly with Landlord, any governmental transportation management organization or any other transportation-related committees or entities (so long as such participation is commercially reasonable and is consistent with programs in which other similarly situated landlords owning buildings in the vicinity of the Building also participate). The Project has not undergone an inspection by a certified access specialist and no representations are made with respect to compliance with accessibility standards. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.
ARTICLE 22     

ENTRY BY LANDLORD
Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times and upon twenty-four (24) hours’ notice to Tenant (except in emergency situations and/or to perform janitorial or other services required of Landlord under this Lease, in which event no prior notice shall be required) to enter the Premises to: (i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or tenants (with respect to prospective tenants, during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term), or to the ground or underlying lessors; (iii) to post notices of nonresponsibility; or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the Building if necessary to comply with current building codes or other applicable laws, or for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building, or as Landlord may otherwise reasonably desire or deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 22 , Landlord may enter the Premises at any time, without notice to Tenant, in emergency situations and/or to perform janitorial or other services required of Landlord pursuant to this Lease. Any such entries shall be without the abatement of Rent and shall include the right to take such reasonable

steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes. Tenant hereby waives any claims for damages or for any injuries or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant. In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to enter without notice and use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises; provided , however , in the course of taking such action, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to interfere with or adversely affect Tenant’s business operations at the Premises (subject to events and circumstances outside of Landlord’s reasonable control).
ARTICLE 23     

TENANT PARKING
Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase throughout the Lease Term up to the number of Unreserved Passes set forth in Section 11 of the Summary, located in those portions of the Parking Facilities as may be designated by Landlord from time to time. However, commencing on the date of full execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant, by providing at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord, shall have the right to purchase the Reserved Pass set forth in Section 11 of the Summary. Tenant shall pay to Landlord for the use of such parking passes, on a monthly basis, the prevailing rates charged from time to time by Landlord or Landlord's parking operator for parking passes in the Parking Facilities where such parking passes are located. Further, if Tenant at any time during the Lease Term elects not to purchase any of the parking passes as allocated to Tenant hereunder, Landlord shall have the right to allow others to purchase Tenant's unused parking passes and if Tenant later wishes to purchase its previously unused parking passes, such use shall be subject to Tenant delivering to Landlord thirty (30) days prior written notice of its desire to use such passes and such use shall be subject to availability, as determined by Landlord (or Landlord's parking operator) from time to time. Tenant's continued right to use the parking passes is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the Parking Facilities and upon Tenant's cooperation in seeing that Tenant's employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations. In addition, Landlord may assign any parking spaces and/or make all or a portion of such spaces reserved or institute an attendant-assisted tandem parking program and/or valet parking program if Landlord determines in its reasonable discretion that such is necessary or desirable for orderly and efficient parking. Landlord specifically reserves the right, from time to time, to change the size, configuration, design, layout, location and all other aspects of the Parking Facilities, provided that no such matters shall materially diminish Tenant's beneficial use and enjoyment of the Premises, and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord, from time to time, may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease temporarily close-off or restrict access to the Parking Facilities ( provided , however , in such event, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide temporary parking reasonably agreeable to Tenant in other parking areas or parking structures), or temporarily relocate Tenant's parking spaces to other parking structures and/or surface parking areas within a commercially reasonable walking distance from the Parking Facilities, for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements or to accommodate or facilitate renovation, alteration, construction or other modification of other improvements or structures located on the Real Property , but in no event in connection with the construction, modification or maintenance of the improvements of a tenant within the Building (with all such work, if any, to be performed by Landlord in a commercially reasonable manner) . Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to Landlord. The parking rates charged by Landlord for Tenant's parking passes shall be exclusive of any parking tax or other charges imposed by governmental authorities in connection with the use of such parking, which taxes and/or charges shall be paid directly by Tenant or the parking users, or, if directly imposed against Landlord, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all such taxes and/or charges within ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of the invoice from Landlord. The parking passes provided to Tenant pursuant to this Article 23 are provided solely for use by Tenant's own personnel and such passes may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord's prior approval.

24.4     Modification of Lease; Financials . Should any current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor for the Real Property require a modification or modifications of this Lease, which modification or modifications will not cause an increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way materially and adversely change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, then and in such event, Tenant agrees that this Lease may be so modified and agrees to execute whatever reasonable documents are required therefor and deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) business days following the request therefor. Should Landlord or any such current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor require execution of a short form of Lease for recording, containing, among other customary provisions, the names of the parties, a description of the Premises and the Lease Term, Tenant agrees to execute such short form of Lease and to deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) days following the request therefor.

The liability of any transferee of Landlord shall be limited to the interest of such transferee in the Real Property and such transferee shall be without personal liability under this Lease, and Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases such personal liability on behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant. Tenant further acknowledges that Landlord may assign its interest in this Lease to a mortgage lender as additional security and agrees that such an assignment shall not release Landlord from its obligations hereunder and that Tenant shall continue to look to Landlord for the performance of its obligations hereunder.

24.6     Prohibition Against Recording . Except as provided in Section 24.4 of this Lease, neither this Lease, nor any memorandum, affidavit or other writing with respect thereto, shall be recorded by Tenant or by anyone acting through, under or on behalf of Tenant, and the recording thereof in violation of this provision shall make this Lease null and void at Landlord's election. Within ten (10) days of the request of either party, the other shall execute a memorandum of lease in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G , which may be recorded at the sole cost and expense of the recording party; provided , however , as a condition to such recording by Tenant, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord’s counsel a fully-executed quit claim deed in recordable form, which will be held in trust by Landlord’s counsel (and may be recorded only upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease).
24.7     Landlord's Title; Air Rights . Landlord's title is and always shall be paramount to the title of Tenant. Nothing herein contained shall empower Tenant to do any act which can, shall or may encumber the title of Landlord.

Except as specifically set forth in this Section 24.8 , Tenant may not install any Signs on the exterior or roof of the Building or the common areas of the Building or the Real Property. Any Signs, window coverings, or blinds (even if the same are located behind the Landlord approved window coverings for the Building), or other items visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building are subject to the prior approval of Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion. As used herein, the Signs and the Eyebrow Signage (as defined in Section 24.8.2 below) are collectively referred to as “ Tenant’s Signage ”.
24.8.1     Building Directory and Suite Identification Signage .

24.13     No Warranty .

24.14     Landlord Exculpation . It is expressly understood and agreed that notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, and notwithstanding any applicable law to the contrary, the liability of Landlord and the Landlord Parties hereunder (including any successor landlord) and any recourse by Tenant against Landlord or the Landlord Parties shall be limited solely and exclusively to an amount which is equal to the ownership interest of Landlord in the Building (excluding any proceeds thereof, but including any insurance or condemnation proceeds received by Landlord with respect to the Real Property), and neither Landlord, nor any of the Landlord Parties shall have any personal liability therefor, and Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases such personal liability on behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant.

EXTENSION OPTION RIDER
This Extension Option Rider (“ Extension Rider ”) is made and entered into by and between 600 B STREET SAN DIEGO OWNER, LLC , a Delaware limited liability company (“ Landlord ”) and MITEK SYSTEMS, INC. , a Delaware corporation (“ Tenant ”), and is dated as of the date of the Lease by and between Landlord and Tenant to which this Extension Rider is attached. The agreements set forth in this Extension Rider shall have the same force and effect as if set forth in the Lease. To the extent the terms of this Extension Rider are inconsistent with the terms of the Lease, the terms of this Extension Rider shall control.
1.     Grant of Extension Option . Subject to the provisions, limitations and conditions set forth in this Extension Rider, Tenant shall have one (1) option (the “ Extension Option ”) to extend the initial Lease Term for an additional period of five (5) years (the “ Extension Term ”).
2.     Tenant’s Extension Option Notice . Tenant shall have the right to deliver written notice to Landlord of its intent to exercise the Extension Option (the “ Extension Option Notice ”). If Landlord does not receive the Extension Option Notice from Tenant on a date which is no earlier than twelve (12) months and no less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, all rights under this Extension Rider shall automatically terminate and shall be of no further force or effect. Upon the proper exercise of the Extension Option, subject to the provisions, limitations and conditions set forth in this Extension Rider, the Lease Term shall be extended for the Extension Term.
3.     Establishing the Initial Base Rent for the Extension Term . The initial Base Rent for the Extension Term shall be equal to the then Fair Market Rental Rate, as hereinafter defined. As used herein, the “ Fair Market Rental Rate " payable by Tenant for the Extension Term shall mean the Base Rent for comparable space at which non-equity tenants, as of the commencement of the lease term for the Extension Term, will be leasing non-sublease, non-equity, unencumbered space comparable in size, location and quality to the Premises for a comparable term, which comparable space is located in the Building and in other comparable first-class buildings in the Downtown San Diego, California market area, taking into account and adjusting the Expense Base Year, Tax Expense Base Year, and the Utilities Base Year to be the Calendar Year during which the Extension Term commences, and taking into consideration all out-of-pocket concessions generally being granted at such time for such comparable space, including the condition and value of existing tenant improvements in the Premises. The Base Rent during the Extension Term shall include the periodic rental increases that would be included for space leased for the period of the Extension Term.
4.     Determination of Brokers . If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rental Rate for the Extension Term within ten (10) days of receipt by Landlord of the Extension Option Notice, Landlord and Tenant each, at its cost and by giving written notice to the other party, shall appoint a competent and impartial commercial real estate broker (hereinafter “ broker ”) with at least ten (10) years full-time commercial real estate brokerage experience in the geographical area of the Premises to set the Fair Market Rental Rate for the space and term at issue. If either Landlord or Tenant does not appoint a broker within ten (10) days after the other party has given written notice of the name of its broker, the single broker appointed shall be the sole broker and shall conclusively determine the Fair Market Rental Rate for the Extension Term. If two (2) brokers are appointed by Landlord and Tenant as stated in this paragraph, they shall meet promptly and attempt to set the Fair Market Rental Rate. If the two (2) brokers are unable to agree within ten (10) days after the second broker has been appointed, then the two (2) brokers shall attempt to select a third (3 rd ) broker, meeting the qualifications stated in this paragraph within ten (10) days after the last day the two (2) brokers are given to set the Fair Market Rental Rate. In addition, each of the two (2) brokers shall submit to the other prior to the end of such second (2 nd ) ten (10) day period their respective good faith estimate of the Fair Market Rental Rate. If the two (2) brokers are unable to agree on the third (3 rd ) broker, either Landlord or Tenant by giving ten (10) days’ written notice to the other party, can apply to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of the county in which the Premises is located for the selection of a third (3 rd ) broker who meets the qualifications stated in this paragraph. If either of the first two (2) brokers fails to submit their respective opinion of the Fair Market Rental Rate within the time frames set forth below, then the single Fair Market Rental Rate submitted shall automatically be the initial monthly Base Rent for the Extension Term and shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. Landlord and Tenant each shall bear one-half (½) of the cost of appointing the third (3 rd ) broker and of paying the third (3 rd ) broker’s fee. The third (3 rd ) broker, however selected, shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either Landlord or Tenant. Within fifteen (15) days after the selection of the third (3 rd ) broker, the third (3 rd ) broker shall select one (1) of the two

(2) Fair Market Rental Rates for the space and term at issue, which may be one (1) or the other of the Fair Market Rental Rates submitted by the first two (2) brokers, or a different rate not greater than the higher nor lower than the lesser of the Fair Market Rental Rates submitted by the first two (2) brokers. The determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate by the third (3 rd ) broker shall be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
Upon determination of the initial monthly Base Rent for the Extension Term in accordance with the terms outlined above, Landlord and Tenant shall immediately execute an amendment to the Lease. Such amendment shall set forth among other things, the initial monthly Base Rent for the Extension Term and the actual commencement date and expiration date of the Extension Term. Tenant shall have no other right to extend the Lease Term under this Extension Rider, unless Landlord and Tenant otherwise agree in writing.
5.     Condition of Premises and Brokerage Commissions for the Extension Term . If Tenant timely and properly exercises the Extension Option, in strict accordance with the terms contained herein, Tenant shall accept the Premises in its then “ AS-IS ” condition and, accordingly, Landlord shall not be required to perform any additional improvements to the Premises (unless an improvement allowance is determined as a part of the determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate as set forth in Section 3 [Establishing the Initial Base Rent for the Extension Term] above).
6.     Limitations On, and Conditions To, Extension Option . The Extension Option is personal to the original named Tenant executing the Lease, and its Affiliates permitted pursuant to Section 14.7 of the Lease, and may not be assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, separate from or as part of the Lease. At Landlord’s option, all rights of Tenant under this Extension Rider shall terminate and be of no force or effect if any of the following individual events occur or any combination thereof occur: (a) Tenant has been in monetary or material non-monetary default under this Lease, beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, at any time during the Lease Term, or is in monetary or material non-monetary default of any provision of the Lease, beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, on the date Landlord receives the Extension Option Notice; and/or (b) Tenant has assigned its rights and obligations under all or part of the Lease to other than an Affiliate permitted pursuant to Section 14.7 of the Lease, or Tenant has subleased twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Premises in a transfer to other than an Affiliate permitted pursuant to Section 14.7 of the Lease; and/or (c) Tenant has failed to exercise properly this Extension Option in a timely manner in strict accordance with the provisions of this Extension Rider; and/or (d) Tenant, together with all Affiliates, no longer has possession of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Premises pursuant to the Lease, or if the Lease has been terminated earlier, pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Lease.
7.     Time is of the Essence . Time is of the essence with respect to each and every time period described in this Extension Rider.
