9.
CONFIDENTIALITY : Lessee, subject to SEC rules and regulations, and Lessor agrees that the terms of this Lease will be kept strictly confidential and not disclosed to any other person without written consent from Lessor.

10.
CASP INSPECTION: The Premises have not undergone an inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp), and a disability access inspection certificate, as described in subdivision (e) of Section 55.53 of the California Civil Code, has not been issued for the Premises. In accordance with Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Lessee is advised of the following: “A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises.”

Accordingly, the parties hereby agree that Lessee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to have a CASp inspect the Premises and determine whether the Premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law; provided, however, that such CASp inspection shall not be conducted unless and until: (i) Lessee has first delivered at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Lessor and the Parties have thereafter entered into a written agreement confirming the timing, manner and confidentiality of such CASp inspection and any report thereon; and (ii) Lessee has agreed in writing that Lessee shall be solely liable for (and shall indemnify and defend Lessor against any claims or liabilities relating to) any fees, costs or liabilities respecting such CASp inspection and any report thereon. If it is determined that the Premises do not meet all applicable construction-related accessibility standards, then Lessee shall promptly make, as soon as reasonably possible, but subject to Lease provisions otherwise requiring Lessor’s prior consent to repairs or other alterations to the Premises, any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards identified by such inspection, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense.

11.
REPRESENTATION : Gildred Development Company represents Lessor exclusively and Hughes Marino represents the Lessee in this transaction (please see Exhibit A to this Fourth Amendment, attached hereto and incorporated by this reference). Lessee and Lessor each represent and warrant to the other that no person, firm, broker or finder is entitled to any commission or finder’s fee in connection herewith. Each of the Parties represents, acknowledges and agrees that it has been represented by such independent counsel and/or brokers, and has consulted with such consultants and other professionals, as each such Party has deemed necessary or appropriate and as it has voluntarily chosen throughout all negotiations which preceded the execution of this Lease; and that this Lease has been executed on the advice of such independent counsel, broker(s), consultant(s) and other professional(s). The Parties further agree that each has cooperated and participated in the drafting of this Lease and, therefore, any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Lease.

EXHIBIT B DISCLOSURE REGARDING
REAL ESTATE AGENCY RELATIONSHIP
(As required by the Civil Code)

When you enter into a discussion with a real estate agent regarding a real estate transaction , you should from the outset understand what type of agency relationship or representation you wish to have with the agent in the transaction .
SELLER’S AGENT (“Seller” includes both a vendor and a lessor)
A Seller’s agent under a listing agreement with the Seller acts as the agent for the Seller only . A Seller’s agent or a subagent of that agent has the following affirmative obligations:
To the Seller: A Fiduciary duty of utmost care , integrity , honesty and loyalty in dealings with the Seller. To the Buyer and the Seller: (a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skill and care in performance of the agent’s duties .
(b)
A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith .
(c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to , or within the diligent attention and observation of , the parties . An agent is not obligated to reveal to either party any confidential information obtained from the other party that does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above .
BUYER’S AGENT (“Buyer” includes both a purchaser and a lessee).
A selling agent can , with a Buyer’s consent, agree to act as agent for the Buyer only . In these situations , the agent is not the Seller’s agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensation for services rendered , either in full or in part from the Seller . An agent acting only for a Buyer has the following affirmative obligations:
To the Buyer: A fiduciary duty of utmost care , integrity , honesty and loyalty in dealings with the Buyer. To the Buyer and the Seller: (a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skill and care in performance of the agent’s duties .
(b)
A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith .
(c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to , or within the diligent attention and observation of, the parties .
An agent is not obligated to reveal to either party any confidential information obtained from the other party that does not involve the affirmative
Duties set forth above .
AGENT REPRESENTING BOTH SELLER AND BUYER
A real estate agent, either acting directly or through one or more associate licensees , can legally be the agent of both the Seller and the Buyer in a transaction , but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Seller and the Buyer .
In a dual agency situation , the agent has the following affirmative obligations to both the Seller and the Buyer:
(a)
A fiduciary duty of utmost care , integrity , honesty and loyalty in the dealings with either the Seller or the Buyer .
(b)
Other duties to the Seller and the Buyer as stated above in their respective sections .
In representing both Seller and Buyer , the agent may not, without the express permission of the respective party , disclose to the other party that the Seller will accept a price less than the listing price or that the Buyer will pay a price greater than the price offered . The above duties of the agent in a real estate transaction do not relieve a Seller or Buyer from the responsibility to protect his or her own interests. You should carefully read all agreements to assure that they adequately express your understanding of the transaction . A real estate agent is a person qualified to advice about real estate . If legal or tax advice is desired , consult a competent professional .
Throughout your real property transaction, you may receive more than one disclosure form, depending upon the number of agents assisting in the transaction . The law requires each agent with whom you have more than a casual relationship to present you with this disclosure form. You should read its contents each time it is presented to you , considering the relationship between you and the real estate agent in your specific transaction.
This disclosure form includes the provisions of Sections 2079 . 13 to 2079 . 24 , inclusive , of the Civil Code set forth on page
2 . Read it carefully. I/WE ACKNOWLEDGE RECEIPT OF A COPY OF THIS DISCLOSURE AND THE PORTIONS OF THE CIVIL CODE PRINTED ON THE BACK (OR A SEPARATE PAGE) .

DISCLOSURE REGARDING REAL ESTATE AGENCY RELATIONSHIP
CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 2079 . 13 THROUGH 2079 . 24 (2079 . 16 APPEARS ON THE FRONT)
2079.13 As used in Sections 2079 . 14 to 2079 . 24 , inclusive , the following terms have the following meanings:
(a) “Agent” means a person acting under provisions of Title 9 (commencing with Section 2295) in a real property transaction, and includes a person who is licensed as a real estate broker under Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 10130) of Part 1 of Division 4 of the Business and Professions Code, and under whose license a listing is executed or an offer to purchase is obtained. (b) “Associate licensee” means a person who is licensed as a real estate broker or salesperson under Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 10130) of Part 1 of Division 4 of the Business and Professions Code and who is either licensed under a broker or has entered into a written contract with a broker to act as the broker’s agent in connection with acts requiring a real estate license and to function under the broker’s supervision in the capacity of an associate licensee. The agent in the real property transaction bears responsibility for his or her associate licensees who perform as agents of the agent. When an associate licensee owes a duty to any principal, or to any buyer or seller who is not a principal, in a real property transaction, that duty is equivalent to the duty owed to that party by the broker for whom the associate licensee functions.

2079.20 Nothing in this article prevents an agent from selecting, as a condition of the agent’s employment, a specific form of agency relationship not specifically prohibited by this article if the requirements of Section 2079.14 and Section 2079.17 are complied with.
2079.21 A dual agent shall not disclose to the buyer that the seller is willing to sell the property at a price less than the listing price, without the express written consent of the seller. A dual agent shall not disclose to the seller that the buyer is willing to pay a price greater than the offering price, without the express written consent of the buyer. This section does not alter in any way the duty or responsibility of a dual agent to any principal with respect to confidential information other than price.
2079.22 Nothing in this article precludes a listing agent from also being a selling agent, and the combination of these functions in one agent does not, of itself, make that agent a dual agent.
2079.23 A contract between the principal and agent may be modified or altered to change the agency relationship at any time before the performance of the act which is the object of the agency with the written consent of the parties to the agency relationship.

2079.24 Nothing in this article shall be construed to either diminish the duty of disclosure owed buyers and sellers by agents and their associate licensees, subagents, and employees or to relieve agents and their associate licensees, subagents, and employees from liability for their conduct in connection with acts governed by this article or for any breach of a fiduciary duty or a duty of disclosure.
