2
NNW
(other than as a result of strikes, shortages of materials, holdover tenancies or similar matters beyond the
reasonable control of Landlord and Tenant is notified by Landlord in writing as to such delay), Tenant
shall have the option to terminate this Lease unless said delay is as a result of: (a) Tenant's failure to
agree to plans and specifications and/or construction cost estimates or bids; (b) Tenant's request for
materials, finishes or installations other than Landlord's standard except those, if any, that Landlord shall
have expressly agreed to furnish without extension of time agreed by Landlord; (c) Tenant's change in
any plans or specifications; or, (d) performance or completion by a party employed by Tenant(each of the
foregoing, a "Tenant Delay"). If any delay is the result of a Tenant Delay, the Commencement Date and
the payment of rent under this Lease shall be accelerated by the number of days of such Tenant Delay.
(c) Confirmation of Commencement Date. When the Commencement Date as provided in
Subsection 4(a)(ii) or Subsection 4(a)(iii) has been established as an earlier or later date than the
Commencement Date specified in Section 1, Landlord shall confirm the Commencement Date by notice
to Tenant.
5. Minimum Monthly Rent; Late Charge.
(a) Minimum Monthly Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Minimum Monthly Rent
without deduction, offset, prior notice or demand, in advance on the first day of each month during the
Term. Minimum Monthly Rent for any partial month shall be prorated at the rate of 1/30th of the Minimum
Monthly Rent per day. Minimum Monthly Rent is exclusive of any sales, franchise, business or occupation
or other tax based on rents (other than Landlord's general income taxes) and should such taxes apply
during the Term, the Minimum Monthly Rent shall be increased by the amount of such taxes. All Rent
shall be paid to Landlord at Landlord's Address for Payment of Rent or at such other address as Landlord
may specify by notice to Tenant.
(b) Late Charge. Tenant acknowledges that the late payment by Tenant of any Rent will
cause Landlord to incur administrative, collection, processing and accounting costs and expenses not
contemplated under this Lease, the exact amount of which are extremely difficult or impracticable to fix.
Therefore, if any Rent is not received by Landlord from Tenant by the fifth (5th) calendar day after such
Rent is due, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the
amount of such Rent or Seventy-five and No/100th Dollars ($75.00), whichever is greater. Landlord and
Tenant agree that this late charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is
fair compensation to Landlord for its loss caused by Tenant's nonpayment. Should Tenant pay said late
charge but fail to pay contemporaneously therewith all unpaid amounts of Rent, Landlord's acceptance of
this late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to Tenant's nonpayment nor
prevent Landlord from exercising all other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or
under law.
6. Prepaid Rent and Security Deposit. As partial consideration for Landlord's execution of this
Lease, on execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the Prepaid Rent, as monthly rent
for the first full month of the Term for which Rent is payable, and the Security Deposit, as a Security
Deposit for the performance by Tenant of the provisions of this Lease. If Tenant is in default, Landlord
may use the Security Deposit, or any portion of it, to cure the default, including without limitation, paying
for the cost of any work necessary to restore the Premises, the Tenant improvements and any alterations
to good condition or to compensate Landlord for all damage sustained by Landlord resulting from
Tenant's default. Tenant shall within five (5) calendar days of demand pay to Landlord a sum equal to the
portion of the Security Deposit expended or applied by Landlord as provided in this Section so as to
maintain the Security Deposit in the sum initially deposited with Landlord. If Tenant is not in default as of
the expiration or termination of the Term, including without limitation, in default in payment of the Rent for
the last month of the Term, then Landlord shall return the Security Deposit, without interest, to Tenant
within a reasonable period of time not to exceed thirty (30) calendar days after the expiration or
termination of the Term, provided, however, that Landlord may retain a portion of the Security Deposit for
payment of increases in Real Property Taxes and Operating Costs the exact amount of which has not
been determined as of the expiration or termination of the Term. Landlord's obligations with respect to the
Security Deposit are those of a debtor and not a trustee. Landlord may commingle the Security Deposit
with Landlord's general and other funds.
7. Real Property Taxes.
(a) Payment of Tenant's Share of Increases in Real Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, as Additional Rent, monthly, in advance on the first day of each month during the Term, an
amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's Share of all increases in Real Property Taxes that are or
will be levied or assessed against the Property during each calendar year during the Term over and
above the Real Property Taxes that are levied or assessed against the Property during the Base Year as
reasonably estimated by Landlord. Such Additional Rent is exclusive of any sales, franchise, business or
occupation or other tax based on rents and should such taxes apply during the Term, such Additional
Rent shall be increased by the amount of such taxes. Within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days
after the end of each calendar year during the Term or within such longer period of time as may be
reasonably necessary, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of the Real Property Taxes for the
preceding calendar year and Tenant's Share of the increase in Real Property Taxes. If Tenant's Share of
the increase in such Real Property Taxes for that calendar year over such Real Property Taxes for the
Base Year exceeds the monthly payments made by Tenant, then Tenant shall pay Landlord the
deficiency within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the statement. If Tenant's payments made
during that calendar year exceed Tenant's Share of the increase in such Real Property Taxes for that
calendar year over such Real Property Taxes for the Base Year, then, at Landlord's option, either
Landlord shall pay Tenant the excess at the time Landlord furnishes the statement to Tenant, or Tenant
3
rr11
shall be entitled to offset the excess against the next installment(s) of Minimum Monthly Rent and
Additional Rent, provided, however, that at the end of the Term Landlord shall pay Tenant the excess at
the time Landlord furnishes the statement to Tenant.
(b) General and Special Assessments. With respect to any general or special
assessments which may be levied against or upon the Property, or which under the laws then in force
may be evidenced by improvement or other bonds or may be paid in annual installments, only the amount
of such annual installment, and interest due thereon, shall be included in the computation of Real
Property Taxes.
(c) Proration. Tenant's Share of Real Property Taxes shall be prorated on the basis of a
360-day year to account for any fractional portion of a tax year included in the Term at its commencement
and expiration.

Section, the Minimum Monthly Rent payable by Tenant shall in no event be less than the Minimum
Monthly Rent specified in Section 1.
(e) Leasehold Excise Tax. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
7, Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord is a municipal corporation under the State of Washington,
and, as such, pays leasehold excise taxes based on rent in lieu of Real Property Taxes. For purposes of
establishing a Base Year for taxes based on rent, Landlord and Tenant shall agree upon a tax
assessment based on the valuation of the Property for the Base Year, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord
as Additional Rent, monthly, in advance on the first day of each month during the Term, an amount equal
to one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's Share of all increases in the valuation of the Property over the agreed
upon Base Year valuation that are or will be levied or assessed against the Property for each calendar
year during the Term.
8. Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay prior to delinquency all personal property taxes
assessed against and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property of
Tenant contained in the Premises or elsewhere. If possible, Tenant shall cause such trade fixtures,
furnishings, equipment and all other personal property of Tenant to be assessed and billed separately
from the Property.
9. Operating Costs.
(a) Payment of Tenant's Share of Increases in Operating Costs. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, as Additional Rent, monthly, in advance on the first day of each month during the Term, an
amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's Share of the increase in the Operating Costs of the
Property for each calendar year during the Term over the Operating Costs for the Base Year as
reasonably estimated by Landlord. Landlord may, in accordance with sound accounting and management
principles, both reasonably estimate, and finally determine, the Operating Costs for the Base Year and for
each calendar year during the Term based on the Operating Costs that would have been incurred if the
Building had been 95% occupied during the Base Year or each such calendar year, as the case may be,
taking into account historical operating costs for the Building. Landlord may, in accordance with sound
accounting and management principles, make any other appropriate changes to reflect adjustments to
Operating Costs for prior years or for the then current calendar year. Such Additional Rent is exclusive of
any sales, franchise, business or occupation or other tax based on rents and should such taxes apply
during the Term, such Additional Rent shall be increased by the amount of such taxes. Within one
hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the end of each calendar year during the Term or within such
longer period of time as may be reasonably necessary, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of
the Operating Costs for the preceding calendar year and Tenant's Share of the increase in the Operating
Costs. If Tenant's Share of the increase in the Operating Costs for that calendar year over the Operating
Costs for the Base Year exceeds the monthly payments made by Tenant, then Tenant shall pay Landlord
the deficiency within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the statement. If Tenant's payments made
during that calendar year exceed Tenant's Share of the increase in the Operating Costs for that calendar
year over the Operating Costs for the Base Year, then, at Landlord's option, either Landlord shall pay
Tenant the excess at the time Landlord furnishes the statement to Tenant, or Tenant shall be entitled to
offset the excess against the next installment(s) of Minimum Monthly Rent and Additional Rent, provided,
however, that at the end of the Term Landlord shall pay Tenant the excess at the time Landlord furnishes
the statement to Tenant.
(b) Proration. Tenant's Share of Operating Costs shall be prorated on the basis of a 360-
day year to account for any fractional portion of a year included in the Term at its commencement and
expiration.
(c) No Effect on Minimum Monthly Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section, the Minimum Monthly Rent payable by Tenant shall in no event be less than the Minimum
Monthly Rent specified in Section 1.

prior written consent Tenant's use of the Premises shall be in accordance with the following:

Property that will cause a cancellation of any insurance covering the Property or jeopardize such
insurance coverage. If the rate of any insurance carried by Landlord on the Property as published by the
Washington Survey and Rating Bureau, or any successor rating bureau or agency, is increased as a
4
result of Tenant's use, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord not less than ten (10) calendar days before the
date Landlord is obligated to pay a premium on the insurance, a sum equal to the difference between the

(c) Trade Fixtures. Tenant shall not install any trade fixtures in or on the Premises without
Landlord's prior written consent.
15. Mechanics' Lien(s). Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all costs of labor, services and/or
materials supplied in connection with any Work. Tenant shall keep the Premises free and clear of all
mechanics' liens and other liens resulting from any Work. Prior to the commencement of any Work
costing more than an amount equal to one (1) month's Minimum Monthly Rent, or the supply or furnishing
of any labor, services and/or materials in connection with any such Work, Tenant shall provide Landlord
with a labor and material payment bond, a letter of credit or other security satisfactory to Landlord in an
amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the aggregate price of all contracts therefor, with release
of the bond conditioned on Tenant's prompt payment in full of all claims of lien claimants for such labor,
services and/or materials supplied in the prosecution of the Work. Said payment bond shall name
Landlord as a primary obligee, shall be given by a surety which is satisfactory to Landlord, and shall be in
such form as Landlord shall approve in its sole discretion. Tenant shall have the right to contest the
correctness or validity of any such lien if, immediately on demand by Landlord, it procures and records a
lien release bond issued by a responsible corporate surety in an amount sufficient to satisfy statutory
requirements of the State of Washington. Tenant shall promptly pay or cause to be paid all sums awarded
to the claimant on its suit, and, in any event, before any execution is issued with respect to any judgment
obtained by the claimant in its suit or before such judgment becomes a lien on the Premises, whichever is
earlier. If Tenant shall be in default under this Section, by failing to provide security for or satisfaction of
any mechanic's or other liens, then Landlord may in its sole discretion (but shall not be obligated to), in
addition to any other rights or remedies it may have, discharge said lien by (i) paying the claimant an
amount sufficient to settle and discharge the claim, (ii) procuring and recording a lien release bond, or(iii)
taking such other action as Landlord shall deem necessary or advisable, and, in any such event, Tenant
shall pay as Additional Rent, on Landlord's demand, all reasonable costs (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) incurred by Landlord in settling and discharging such lien together with any interest in accordance
with Section 39 captioned "Interest on Unpaid Rent" from the date of Landlord's payment of said costs.
Landlord's payment of such costs shall not waive any default of Tenant under this Section or any rights,
remedies and/or claims available to Landlord.
16. Utilities and Services.
(a) Utilities and Services Furnished by Landlord. Landlord shall furnish the Premises
with:
(i) Electricity for lighting and power suitable for the use of the Premises for ordinary general
office purposes; provided, however, that Tenant shall not at any time have a connected electrical load for
lighting purposes in excess of the wattage per square foot of the Premises required for building standard
amounts of lighting, or a connected load for all other power requirements in excess of four (4) watts per
square foot of the Premises as determined by Landlord, and the electricity so provided for lighting and
power shall not exceed such limits, subject to any lower limits set by any governmental authority with
respect thereto;
(ii) Subject to the reasonable limitations of the existing building systems, heating, ventilating
and air-conditioning, if the Building has an air-conditioning system, to maintain a temperature range in the
Premises which is customary for similar office space in the Seattle, Washington area (but in compliance
with any applicable governmental regulations). Tenant agrees to keep closed, when necessary, blinds,
draperies and windows which must be closed to provide for the efficient operation of the heating and air
conditioning systems, if any, and Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord and to abide by the
regulations and requirements which Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of
the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning system, if any. If Tenant requires heating, ventilating and air
conditioning to the Premises other than during Tenant's normal business hours from 6:00 A.M. to 7:00
P.M. Monday through Friday, 9:00 A.M. to 6 P.M on Saturdays, and 9 A.M. to 2 P.M. Sundays, except
those legal holidays generally observed in the State of Washington, Landlord shall, upon Tenant's
request made not less than 24 hours before the time Tenant requires the after hour service, and not later
than Noon on the Friday before any Saturday or Sunday on which Tenant requires such service, and not
later than Noon of the day before any holiday on which Tenant requires such service (except as otherwise
provided in the Rules and Regulations), furnish such heating, ventilating and air conditioning. If Tenant
receives such services, then Tenant shall pay, upon demand, an amount equal to Tenant's proportionate
share of the actual direct cost to Landlord in providing the heating, ventilating and air conditioning outside
of normal business hours which Landlord and Tenant agree will be$35.00 per hour at this time;
(iii) Water for restroom and drinking purposes and access to restroom facilities;
7
(iv) Elevator service for general office pedestrian usage if the Building is serviced by
elevators;
(v) Relamping of building-standard light fixtures;
(vi) Washing of interior and exterior surfaces of exterior windows with reasonable frequency;
and
(vii)Janitorial service five (5)times a week, except for holidays.
(b) Payment for Excess Utilities and Services. All services and utilities for the Premises
not required to be furnished by Landlord pursuant to Section 16(a) shall be paid for by Tenant. If Tenant
requires, on a regular basis, water, heat, air conditioning, electric current, elevator or janitorial service in
excess of that provided for in Section 16(a), then Tenant shall first obtain the consent of Landlord which
consent may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion. If Landlord consents to such excess use, Landlord
may install and/or utilize any device or technology, including but not limited to an electric current or water
meter to measure the excess electric current or water consumed by Tenant or may cause the excess
usage to be measured by other reasonable methods (e.g. by temporary "check" meters or by survey).
Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand (i)the cost of any and all water, heat, air conditioning, electric
current, janitorial, elevator or other services or utilities required to be furnished to Tenant in excess of the
services and utilities required to be furnished by Landlord as provided in Section 16(a); (ii) the cost of
installation, maintenance and repair of any meter installed in the Premises; (iii) the cost of all electricity
and water consumed by Tenant in connection with any dedicated heating, ventilating and/or air
conditioning, computer power and/or air conditioning, telecommunications or other special systems of
Tenant, including any power usage other than through existing standard 110-volt AC outlets; and (iv) any
reasonable cost incurred by Landlord in keeping account of or determining such excess utilities or
services furnished to Tenant. Landlord's failure to bill Tenant for any such excess utilities or services shall
not waive Landlord's right to bill Tenant for the excess at a later time.
(c) Temperature Balance. Landlord makes no representation to Tenant regarding the
adequacy or fitness of the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning systems in the Building to maintain
temperatures that may be required for, or because of, any of Tenant's equipment other than normal office
equipment, such as personal computers, laser printers, copiers, dictating machines and other small
equipment normally used in business offices, and Landlord shall have no liability for any inconvenience,
loss or damage suffered by Tenant or others related in any manner to temperature or comfort. If the
temperature otherwise maintained in any portion of the Premises by the heating, air conditioning or
ventilation system is affected as a result of (i) any lights, machines or equipment (including without
limitation electronic data processing machines) used by Tenant in the Premises or the use of more than
one personal computer for each person, (ii) the occupancy of the Premises by more than one person for
each twenty(20) square feet of rentable area therein, (iii) an electrical load for lighting or power in excess
of the limits per square foot of rentable area of the Premises specified in Section 16(a), or (iv) any
rearrangement of partitioning or other improvements, Landlord may install and utilize any equipment, or
modify any existing equipment (including the standard air conditioning equipment) Landlord deems
necessary to restore the temperature balance. The cost of any such equipment, including without
limitation, the cost of design and installation thereof, and the cost of operating, metering, maintaining or
repairing the same, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. Tenant shall not install or operate
window-mounted heating or air-conditioning units.
(d) Special Electrical or Water Connections; Electricity Use. Tenant will not, without the
prior written consent of Landlord, which Landlord in its sole discretion may refuse, connect or use any
apparatus or device in the Premises (i) using current in excess of 110 volts or (ii) which will cause the
amount of electricity, water, heating, air conditioning or ventilation furnished to the Premises to exceed
the amount required for use of the Premises for ordinary general office purposes, as determined by
Landlord, during normal business hours or(iii)which would cause Tenant's connected load to exceed any
limits established in Section 16(a). Tenant shall not connect with electric current except through existing
outlets in the Premises and shall not connect with water pipes except through existing plumbing fixtures in
the Premises. In no event shall Tenant's use of electricity exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the
Building or the risers or wiring installation, and Landlord may prohibit the use of any electrical equipment
which in Landlord's opinion will overload such wiring or interfere with the use thereof by other tenants in
the Building. If Landlord consents to the use of equipment requiring such changes, Tenant shall pay the
entire cost of installing any additional risers, panels or other facilities that may be necessary to furnish
energy to the Premises.
Landlord will not permit additional coring of the floor of the Premises in order to install new electric
outlets in the Premises unless Tenant furnishes Landlord with X-ray scans of the floor area where the
Tenant wishes to place additional electrical outlets and Landlord, in its sole discretion, is satisfied, on the
basis of such X-ray scans and other information obtained by Landlord, that coring of the floor in order to
install such additional outlets will not weaken the structure of the floor or the Building.
(e) Landlord's Duties. The Parties agree that Landlord shall not be in default under this
Lease or liable for any damages resulting from, or incidental to, any of the following, nor shall any of the
following be an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, nor shall the Rent be abated, offset or withheld
by reason of: (i) failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any of the services described in this Agreement
when such failure or delay is caused by accident or any condition beyond the reasonable control of
Landlord, including the making of necessary repairs or improvements to the Premises or to the Building,
(ii)any electrical surges or spikes, or(iii)failure to make any repair or to perform any maintenance, unless
8
*"Rve
such failure shall persist for an unreasonable time after notice of the need for such repair or maintenance
is given to Landlord by Tenant. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to remedy any interruption in the
furnishing of such services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, due to any act or omission by Landlord, its
agents, employees or contractors, any utility or other service to the Premises is interrupted for forty-eight
(48) consecutive hours or more and, as a result thereof, Tenant is unable to continue its normal business
operations in the Premises, all rent and other charges payable hereunder shall be proportionally reduced
for the period during which such interruption exists taking into account all of the relevant facts and
circumstances. In addition, if the interruption shall continue for sixty (60) consecutive calendar days or
more, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Landlord. In the event of
any such interruption of any utility or other service to the Premises, Landlord shall use reasonable
diligence to restore such service as soon as practicable.
(f) Governmental Regulations. Any other provisions of this Section notwithstanding, if any
governmental authority or utility supplier imposes any laws, controls, conditions, or other restrictions upon
Landlord, Tenant, or the Building, relating to the use or conservation of energy or utilities, mandated
changes in temperatures to be maintained in the Premises or the Building or the reduction of automobile
or other emissions (collectively, the "Controls"), or in the event Landlord is required or elects to make
alterations to the Building in order to comply with the Controls, Landlord may, in its sole discretion,
comply and may require Tenant to comply with the Controls or make such alterations to the Building in
order to comply with the Controls. Such compliance and the making of such alterations shall not
constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, impose on Landlord any liability whatsoever, or
entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent.
17. Indemnity.
(a) Generally. Tenant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Landlord, its elected
officials, agents, officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against any and all claims, suits,
actions, or liabilities for injury or death of any person, or loss of damage to property, which arises out of
Tenant's use of the Premises or Common Areas, the supervision or lack of supervision of the Tenant's
guests or invitees, or from the conduct of Tenant's business, or from any activity, work or thing done,
permitted, or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises, Common Areas or Building, except only such
injury or damage as shall have been solely caused by the negligence of Landlord.
Landlord shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Tenant, its officers, officials, agents and
employees from and against any and all claims, suits, actions, or liabilities for injury or death of any
person, or loss of damage to property, which arises out of any damage to any persons or property
occurring in, on or about the Premises, Common Areas or the Property resulting from the acts or
omissions of Landlord or its authorized representatives within the scope of their official duties or
responsibilities, excluding any injury, death, loss or damage which arises as a result of Tenant's
negligence or Tenant's guests or invitee's negligence.
A party's obligation under this Section to indemnify and hold the other party harmless shall not
be limited to the sum that exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds, if any, received by the party being
indemnified.
(b) Provisions Specifically Negotiated. LANDLORD AND TENANT ACKNOWLEDGE BY
THEIR EXECUTION OF THIS LEASE THAT EACH OF THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS OF THIS
LEASE (SPECIFICALLY INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE RELATING TO WORKER'S
COMPENSATION BENEFITS AND LAWS)WERE SPECIFICALLY NEGOTIATED AND AGREED TO BY
LANDLORD AND TENANT.
18. Exemption of Landlord from Liability. Landlord and Landlord's Agent shall not be liable for
injury to Tenant's business or loss of income therefrom or for damage which may be sustained by the
person, goods, wares, merchandise or property of Tenant, its authorized representatives, or any other
person in or about the Premises, caused by or resulting from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain,
which may leak or flow from or into any part of the Premises, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction
or other defects of the pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures of
the same, whether the said damage or injury resulting from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon
other portions of the Building or the Property unless such injury or damage is caused by the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its authorized representatives.
19. Commercial General Liability and Property Damage Insurance. Tenant, at its cost, shall
procure and maintain commercial general liability insurance (including contractual liability and products
and completed operations liability)with liability limits of not less than $2,000,000 for each occurrence, and
$3,000,000 annual aggregate or $5,000,000 annual aggregate if the Premises contains 5,000 rentable
square feet of space or more, insuring against all liability of Tenant and its authorized representatives
arising out of or in connection with Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises and property damage
insurance with liability limits of not less than $1,000,000. Such limits may be achieved through the use of
umbrella liability insurance otherwise meeting the requirements of Section 22. All such commercial
general liability and property damage insurance shall insure performance by Tenant of the indemnity
provisions of Section 17 captioned "Indemnity" Landlord and Landlord's Agent shall be named as an
Additional Insured on such insurance policy, on a primary and noncontributory basis.
20. Tenant's Fire Insurance. Tenant, at its cost, shall maintain on all of Tenant's Alterations, Trade
Fixtures and Personal Property in, on or about the Premises, a policy of standard All Risk fire insurance,
in an amount equal to at least their full replacement cost. The proceeds of any such policy shall be used
9
by Tenant for the restoration of Tenant's Alterations and Trade Fixtures and the replacement of its
Personal Property. Any portion of such proceeds not used for such restoration shall belong to Tenant.
21. Waiver of Claims; Waiver of Subrogation Landlord and Tenant release each other, and their
respective authorized representatives, from, and waive their entire claim of recovery for, any claims for
damage to the Premises and the Building and to Tenant's alterations, trade fixtures and personal property
that are caused by or result from fire, lightning or any other perils normally included in an "all risk"
property insurance policy whether or not such loss or damage is due to the negligence of Landlord, or its
authorized representatives, or of Tenant, or its authorized representatives. Landlord and Tenant shall
cause each insurance policy obtained by it to provide that the insurance company waives all right of
recovery by way of subrogation against either party in connection with any damage covered by such
insurance policy.
22. Other Insurance Matters. All insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease shall:
(i) be issued by insurance companies authorized to do business in the State of Washington with a rating
of ANI or better as rated in the most recent edition of Best's Insurance Reports; (ii) be issued as a
primary policy, and (iii) contain an endorsement requiring thirty (30) calendar days' prior written notice
from the insurance company to both parties, to Landlord's Agent, Landlord's Risk Manager, and, if
requested by Landlord, to Landlord's lender, before cancellation or change in the coverage, scope, or
amount of any policy. Each policy or a certificate of the policy, together with evidence of payment of
premiums, shall be deposited with Landlord on or before the Commencement Date, and on renewal of the
policy not less than ten (10) calendar days before expiration of the term of the policy.
23. Destruction.
(a) Insured Damage. If during the Term the Premises or the Building are partially or totally
destroyed by any casualty that is covered by any insurance carried by Landlord covering the Building,
rendering the Premises partially or totally inaccessible or unusable, Landlord shall restore the Premises
or the Building to substantially the same condition as they were in immediately before such destruction, if
(i) the insurance proceeds available to Landlord equal or exceed the cost of such restoration, (ii) in the
opinion of a registered architect or engineer appointed by Landlord such restoration can be completed
within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the date on which Landlord obtains all permits
necessary for such restoration, and (iii) such restoration is permitted under then-existing laws to be done
in such a manner as to return the Premises, or the Building, as the case may be, to substantially the
same condition as they were in immediately before such destruction. To the extent that the insurance
proceeds must be paid to a mortgagee under, or must be applied to reduce any debt secured by, a
mortgage covering the Property, the insurance proceeds shall be deemed not to be available to Landlord
unless such mortgagee permits Landlord to use the insurance proceeds for such restoration. Such
destruction shall not terminate this Lease.
(b) Major or Uninsured Damage. If during the Term the Premises or the Building are
partially or totally destroyed by any casualty and Landlord is not obligated under Section 23(a) captioned
"Insured Damage" to restore the Premises or the Building, as the case may be, then Landlord may, at its
sole election, either (i) restore the Premises or the Building to substantially the same condition as they
were in immediately before such destruction, or (ii) terminate this Lease effective as of the date of such
destruction. If Landlord does not give Tenant notice within sixty (60) calendar days after the date of such
destruction of its election to restore the Premises or the Building, as the case may be, Landlord shall be
deemed to have elected to terminate this Lease. If Landlord elects to restore the Premises or the
Building, as the case may be, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete such
restoration within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the date on which Landlord obtains all
permits necessary for such restoration, provided, however, that such one hundred eighty (180) calendar
day period shall be extended by a period equal to any delays caused by Force Majeure, and such
destruction shall not terminate this Lease. If Landlord does not complete such restoration within one (1)
year following the date of such destruction, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by giving notice
to such effect to Landlord within ten (10)calendar days following the end of such one (1) year period.
(c) Damage to the Building. If during the Term the Building is partially destroyed by any
casualty and if in the opinion of Landlord the Building should be restored in such a way as to materially
alter the Premises, then Landlord may, at Landlord's election, terminate this Lease by giving notice to
Tenant of Landlord's election to do so within sixty(60)calendar days after the date of such destruction.
(d) Extent of Landlord's Obligation to Restore. If Landlord is required or elects to restore
the Premises as provided in this Section, Landlord shall not be required to restore alterations made by
Tenant, Tenant's trade fixtures and Tenant's personal property, such excluded items being the sole
responsibility of Tenant to restore with no liability or responsibility on the part of Landlord.
(e) Abatement or Reduction of Rent. In case of damage to, or destruction of, the Premises
or the Building, Rent shall be abated or reduced, between the date of destruction and the date of
completion of restoration, by an amount that is in the same ratio to the Rent as the total number of square
feet of the Premises that are so damaged or destroyed bears to the total number of square feet in the
Premises.
24. Condemnation. If during the Term there is any taking of part or all of the Premises or the
Building by condemnation, then the rights and obligations of the parties shall be as follows:
(a) Minor Taking. If there is a taking of less than ten percent (10%) of the Premises, this
Lease shall remain in full force and effect.
10
(b) Major Taking. If there is a taking of ten percent (10%) or more of the Premises and if the
remaining portion of the Premises is of such size or configuration that Tenant in Tenant's reasonable
judgment is unable to conduct its business in the Premises, then the Term shall terminate as of the date
of taking.
(c) Taking of Part of the Building. If there is a taking of a part of the Building other than the
Premises and if in the opinion of Landlord the Building should be restored in such a way as to materially
alter the Premises, then Landlord may terminate the Term by giving notice to such effect to Tenant within
sixty(60) calendar days after the date of vesting of title in the condemnor and the Term shall terminate as
of the date specified in such notice, which date shall not be less than sixty (60) calendar days after the
giving of such notice.
(d) Award. The entire award for the Premises, the Building and the Property, shall belong to
and be paid to Landlord, Tenant hereby assigning to Landlord Tenant's interest therein, if any, provided,
however, that Tenant shall have the right to claim and recover from the condemnor compensation for the
loss of any alterations made by Tenant, Tenant's trade fixtures, Tenant's personal property, moving
expenses and business interruption.
(e) Abatement of Rent. If any part of the Premises is taken by condemnation and this Lease
remains in full force and effect, on the date of taking Rent shall be reduced by an amount that is in the
same ratio to the Rent as the total number of square feet in the Premises taken bears to the total number
of square feet in the Premises immediately before the date of taking.
25. Assignment and Subletting.
(a) Landlord's Consent; Definitions. Tenant.acknowledges that the Building is a multi-
tenant office building, occupied by tenants specifically selected by Landlord, and that Landlord has a
legitimate interest in the type and quality of such tenants, the location of tenants in the Building and in
controlling the leasing of space in the Building so that Landlord can better meet the particular needs of its
tenants and protect and enhance the relative image, position and value of the Building in the office
building market. Tenant further acknowledges that the rental value of the Premises may fluctuate during
the Term in accordance with market conditions, and, as a result, the Rent paid by Tenant under the
Lease at any particular time may be higher or lower than the then market rental value of the Premises.
Landlord and Tenant agree, and the provisions of this Section are intended to so provide, that, if Tenant
voluntarily assigns its interest in this Lease or in the Premises or subleases any part or all of the
Premises, a portion of the profits from any increase in the market rental value of the Premises shall
belong to Landlord. Tenant acknowledges that, if Tenant voluntarily assigns this Lease or subleases any
part or all of the Premises, Tenant's investment in the subject portion of the Premises (specifically
including, but not limited to, tenant improvements, good will or other assets) may be lost or reduced as a
result of such action.
(b) Consent Required. Tenant shall not assign or encumber its interest in this Lease or in
the Premises, or sublease any part or all of the Premises, without Landlord's prior written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any assignment, encumbrance or sublease without
Landlord's consent shall be voidable and, at Landlord's sole election, shall constitute a default by Tenant
under this Lease. In determining whether to approve a proposed assignment or sublease, Landlord shall
place primary emphasis on the proposed transferee's reputation and creditworthiness, the character of
the business to be conducted by the proposed transferee at the Premises and the effect of such
assignment or subletting on the tenant mix in the Building. In addition, Landlord shall have the right to
approve the specific form of any assignment or sublease agreement. In no event shall Landlord be
obligated to consent to any assignment or subletting which increases (i) the Operating Costs, (ii) the
burden on the Building services, (iii) the foot traffic, elevator usage or security concerns in the Building, or
creates an increased probability of the comfort and/or safety of the Landlord and other tenants in the
Building being unreasonably compromised or reduced (for example, but not exclusively, Landlord may
deny consent to an assignment or subletting where the space will be used for a school or training facility,
an entertainment, sports or recreation facility, retail sales to the public (unless Tenant's permitted use is
retail sales), a personnel or employment agency, a medical office, or an embassy or consulate or similar
office), or (iv) would put the Landlord, a municipal corporation, in a negative public light or harm or
diminish Landlord's reputation. Landlord shall not be obligated to approve an assignment or subletting to
(x) a current tenant of the Building or (y) a prospective tenant of the Building with whom Landlord is then
negotiating. Landlord's foregoing rights and options shall continue throughout the entire term of this
Lease. No consent to any assignment, encumbrance or sublease shall constitute a waiver of the
provisions of this Section and no other or subsequent assignment, encumbrance or sublease shall be
made without Landlord's prior consent. Neither an assignment or subletting nor the collection of Rent by
Landlord from any person other than Tenant, nor the application of any such Rent as provided in this
Section shall be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions of this Section or release Tenant from its
obligation to comply with the terms and provisions of this Lease and Tenant shall remain fully and
primarily liable for all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, including the obligation to pay Rent under
this Lease. Any personal guarantee(s) of Tenant's obligations under this Lease shall remain in full force
and effect following any such assignment or subletting. In addition to Landlord's other rights under this
Section, Landlord may condition approval of an assignment or subletting hereunder on an increase in the
amount of the Security Deposit or on receipt of personal guarantees of the assignee's or sublessee's
obligations under this Lease. If Landlord approves of an assignment or subletting hereunder and this
Lease contains any renewal options, expansion options, rights of first refusal, rights of first negotiation or
any other rights or options pertaining to additional space in the Building, such rights and/or options shall
11
not run to the assignee or subtenant, it being agreed by the parties hereto that any such rights and
options are personal to Tenant named herein and may not be transferred.
(c) Conditions to Assignment or Sublease. Tenant agrees that any instrument by which
Tenant assigns or sublets all or any portion of the Premises shall expressly provide that the assignee or
subtenant may not further assign or sublet the assigned or sublet space without Landlord's prior written
consent (which consent shall not, subject to Landlord's rights under this Section, be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), and that the assignee or subtenant will comply with all of the provisions of this
Lease and that Landlord may enforce the Lease provisions directly against such assignee or subtenant in
addition to the Tenant. If this Lease is assigned, whether or not in violation of the terms and provisions of
this Lease, Landlord may collect Rent from the assignee. If the Premises, or any part thereof, is sublet,
Landlord may, upon a default under this Lease, collect rent from the subtenant. In either event, Landlord
may apply the amount collected from the assignee or subtenant to Tenant's obligation to pay Rent under
this Lease.
(d) Events Constituting an Assignment or Sublease. For purposes of this Section, the
following events shall be deemed an assignment or sublease, as appropriate: (i) the issuance of equity
interests (whether stock, partnership interests or otherwise) in Tenant, or any assignee or subtenant, if
applicable, or any entity controlling any of them, to any person or group of related persons, in a single
transaction or a series of related or unrelated transactions, such that, following such issuance, such
person or group shall have Control (as defined below) of Tenant, or any assignee or subtenant, if
applicable; or (ii) a transfer of Control of Tenant, or any assignee or subtenant, if applicable, or any entity
controlling any of them, in a single transaction or a series of related or unrelated transactions (including,
without limitation, by consolidation, merger, acquisition or reorganization), except that the transfer of
outstanding capital stock or other listed equity interests by persons or parties other than "insiders" within
the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, through the "over-the-counter" market
or any recognized national or international securities exchange, shall not be included in determining
whether Control has been transferred. "Control" shall mean direct or indirect ownership of fifty percent
(50%)or more of all the legal and equitable interest in any business entity.
(e) Processing Expenses. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of Landlord's cost of
processing each proposed assignment or subletting, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
and other professional fees, and the cost of Landlord's administrative, legal, accounting and clerical time
(collectively, "Processing Costs"), and the amount of all reasonable direct and indirect expense incurred
by Landlord arising from the assignee or sublessee taking occupancy of the subject space, including
without limitation, reasonable costs of freight elevator operation for moving of furnishings and trade
fixtures, security service, janitorial and cleaning service, rubbish removal service, costs of changing
signage, and costs of changing locks and making new keys (collectively, "Occupancy Costs").
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord shall not be required to process any request for
Landlord's consent to an assignment or subletting until Tenant has paid to Landlord Three Hundred
Dollars ($300.00), or Landlord's estimate of the Processing Costs and the Occupancy Costs, whichever is
greater.
(f) Consideration to Landlord. In the event of any assignment or sublease, whether or not
requiring Landlord's consent, Landlord shall be entitled to receive, as Additional Rent, one-half (1/2) of
any consideration, including without limitation, payment for leasehold improvements paid for by Landlord,
paid by the assignee or subtenant for the assignment or sublease and, in the case of sublease, the
excess of the amount of rent paid for the sublet space by the subtenant over the total amount of Minimum
Monthly Rent under Section 5 and Additional Rent under Sections 7 and 9. Upon Landlord's request,
Tenant shall assign to Landlord all amounts to be paid to Tenant by the assignee or subtenant and shall
direct such assignee or subtenant to pay the same directly to Landlord. If there is more than one sublease
under this Lease, the amounts (if any) to be paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the preceding
sentence shall be separately calculated for each sublease and amounts due Landlord with regard to any
one sublease may not be offset against rental and other consideration due under any other sublease.
(g) Procedures. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or any interest therein or sublet all or
part of the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord prior written notice designating the space proposed to be
sublet and the terms proposed. If the proposed sublease covers the entire Premises and if the term of the
proposed sublease (including any renewal terms)will expire during the final six(6) months of the Term (or
if Tenant has exercised a renewal option, if any, then during the final six (6) months of the subject
renewal period), then Landlord shall have the prior right and option (to be exercised by written notice to
Tenant given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Tenant's notice) (i) to terminate this Lease, or (ii) to
approve Tenant's proposal to sublet conditional upon Landlord's subsequent written approval of the
specific sublease obtained by Tenant and the specific subtenant named therein. If Landlord exercises its
option described in (ii) above, Tenant shall submit to Landlord for Landlord's written approval Tenant's
proposed sublease agreement (in which the proposed subtenant shall be named) together with a current
reviewed or audited financial statement prepared by a certified public accountant for such proposed
subtenant and a credit report on such proposed subtenant prepared by a recognized credit reporting
agency. If Landlord fails to exercise its option to terminate this Lease, this shall not be construed as or
constitute Landlord's a waiver of any of the provisions of this Section. If Landlord exercises its option to
terminate this Lease, Landlord shall not have any liability for any real estate brokerage commission(s) or
with respect to any of the costs, damages and/or expenses that Tenant may have incurred in connection
with its proposed subletting, and Tenant agrees to hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all
claims (including, without limitation, claims for commissions) arising from such proposed subletting.
Landlord's foregoing rights and options shall continue throughout the Term. For purposes of this Section,
a proposed assignment of this Lease in whole or in part shall be deemed a proposed subletting of such
space.

(h) Documentation. No permitted subletting by Tenant shall be effective until there has
been delivered to Landlord a counterpart of the sublease in which the subtenant agrees to be and remain
jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the payment of Rent pertaining to the sublet space and for the
performance of all of the terms and provisions of this Lease; provided, however, that the subtenant shall
be liable to Landlord for Rent only in the amount set forth in the sublease. No permitted assignment shall
be effective unless and until there has been delivered to Landlord a counterpart of the assignment in
which the assignee assumes all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease arising on or after the date of the
assignment. The failure or refusal of a subtenant or assignee to execute any such instrument shall not
release or discharge the subtenant or assignee from its liability as set forth above.
(i) No Merger. Without limiting any of the provisions of this Section, if Tenant has entered
into any subleases of any portion of the Premises, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by
Tenant, or a mutual cancellation by Landlord and Tenant, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the sole
option of Landlord, terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or, at the option of Landlord,
operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all such subleases or subtenancies.
26. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant under this
Lease:
(a) Failure to Pay Rent. Failure to pay Rent when due, if the failure continues for a period of
five (5)calendar days after notice of such default has been given by Landlord to Tenant.
(b) Failure to Comply with Rules and Regulations. Failure to comply with the Rules and
Regulations, if the failure continues for a period of twenty-four (24) hours after written or electronic notice
of such default is given by Landlord to Tenant. If the failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within
twenty-four (24) hours, then Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease if Tenant commences to cure
the failure to comply within twenty-four (24) hours and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the
failure to comply.
(c) Other Defaults. Failure to perform any other provision of this Lease, if the failure to
perform is not cured within thirty (30) calendar days after notice of such default has been given by
Landlord to Tenant. If the default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) calendar days, then
Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease if Tenant commences to cure the default within thirty (30)
calendar days and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the default.
(d) Appointment of Trustee or Receiver. The appointment of a trustee or receiver to take
possession of substantially all of the Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in
this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within sixty(60) calendar days; or the attachment,
execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of
Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within sixty(60)calendar days.
27. Remedies. If Tenant commits a default, Landlord shall have the following alternative remedies,
which are in addition to any remedies now or later allowed by law:
(a) Maintain Lease in Force. Maintain this Lease in full force and effect and recover the
Rent and other monetary charges as they become due, without terminating Tenant's right to possession,
irrespective of whether Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises. If Landlord elects to not terminate the
Lease, Landlord shall have the right to attempt to re-let the Premises at such rent and upon such
conditions and for such a term, and to do all acts necessary to maintain or preserve the Premises as
Landlord deems reasonable and necessary without being deemed to have elected to terminate the Lease
including removal of all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed and
stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant. In the event any
such re-letting occurs, this Lease shall terminate automatically upon the new Tenant taking possession of
the Premises. Notwithstanding that Landlord fails to elect to terminate the Lease initially, Landlord at any
time during the Term of this Lease may elect to terminate this Lease by virtue of such previous default of
Tenant.
(b) Terminate Lease. Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession by any lawful
means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of
the Premises to Landlord. In such event Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages
incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's default including without limitation thereto, the following: (i)
The worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which had 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 Term after the time of award exceeds the amount
of such rental loss that is proved could be 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,
including without limitation, any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in (A) retaking possession of the
Premises, including reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses therefor, (B) maintaining or
preserving the Premises after such default, (C) preparing the Premises for reletting to a new tenant,
including repairs or necessary alterations to the Premises for such reletting, (D) any storage and/or
moving fees or expenses, (E) leasing commissions incident to reletting to a new tenant, and (F) any other
costs necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises; plus (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 state law. The
13
amounts described in clauses (C) and (D) shall be amortized over the term of the new tenant's lease, and
Tenant shall only be liable to Landlord for the portion of such amounts attributable to the period prior to
the Expiration Date of this Lease set forth in Section 1. Upon any such re-entry Landlord shall have the
right to make any reasonable repairs, alterations or modifications to the Premises, which Landlord in its
sole discretion deems reasonable and necessary. As used in Subsection 27(b)(i) the "worth at the time of
award" is computed by allowing interest at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per year from the date of
default. As used in Subsections 27(b)(ii) and 27(b)(iii) the "worth at the time of award" is computed by
discounting such amounts at the discount rate of eight percent(8%) per year.
28. Bankruptcy.
(a) Assumption of Lease. If Tenant becomes a Debtor under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy
Code ("Code") or a petition for reorganization or adjustment of debts is filed concerning Tenant under
Chapters 11 or 13 of the Code, or a proceeding is filed under Chapter 7 of the Code and is transferred to
Chapters 11 or 13 of the Code, the Trustee or Tenant, as Debtor and as Debtor-In-Possession, may not
elect to assume this Lease unless, at the time of such assumption, the Trustee or Tenant has:
(i) Cured all defaults under the Lease and paid all sums due and owing under the Lease or
provided Landlord with "Adequate Assurance" (as defined below) that: (i) within ten (10) calendar days
from the date of such assumption, the Trustee or Tenant will completely pay all sums due and owing

default or breach of this Lease, including without limitation, Landlord's reasonable costs, expenses,
accrued interest, and attorneys' fees expenses incurred as a result of the default or breach; (ii) within
twenty (20) calendar days from the date of such assumption, the Trustee or Tenant will cure all non-
monetary defaults and breaches under this Lease, or, if the nature of such non-monetary defaults is such
that more than twenty (20) calendar days are reasonably required for such cure, that the Trustee or
Tenant will commence to cure such non-monetary defaults within twenty (20) calendar days and
thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion; and (iii)the assumption will be subject to all of the
provisions of this Lease.
(ii) For purposes of this Section, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that, in the context of a
bankruptcy proceeding involving Tenant, at a minimum, "Adequate Assurance" shall mean: (i)the Trustee
or Tenant has and will continue to have sufficient unencumbered assets after the payment of all secured
obligations and administrative expenses to assure Landlord that the Trustee or Tenant will have sufficient
funds to fulfill the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; (ii) the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered an
Order segregating sufficient cash payable to Landlord and/or the Trustee or Tenant shall have granted a
valid and perfected first lien and security interest and/or mortgage in or on property of Trustee or Tenant
acceptable as to value and kind to Landlord, to secure to Landlord the obligation of the Trustee or Tenant
to cure the monetary and/or non-monetary defaults and breaches under this Lease within the time periods
set forth above; and (iii)the Trustee or Tenant, at the very minimum, shall deposit a sum equal to two (2)
months Minimum Monthly Rent to be held by Landlord (without any allowance for interest thereon) to
secure Tenant's future performance under the Lease.
(b) Assignment of Lease. If the Trustee or Tenant has assumed the Lease pursuant to the
provisions of this Section for the purpose of assigning Tenant's interest hereunder to any other person or
entity, such interest may be assigned only after the Trustee, Tenant or the proposed assignee have
complied with all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, including, without limitation, those
with respect to Additional Rent. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that such terms, covenants and
conditions are commercially reasonable in the context of a bankruptcy proceeding of Tenant. Any person
or entity to which this Lease is assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Code shall be deemed without
further act or deed to have assumed all of the obligations arising under this Lease on and after the date of
such assignment. Any such assignee shall upon request execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument
confirming such assignment.
(c) Adequate Protection. Upon the filing of a petition by or against Tenant under the Code,
Tenant, as Debtor and as Debtor-In-Possession, and any Trustee who may be appointed agree to
adequately protect Landlord as follows: (i) to perform each and every obligation of Tenant under this
Lease until such time as this Lease is either rejected or assumed by Order of the Bankruptcy Court; (ii) to
pay all monetary obligations required under this Lease, including without limitation, the payment of
Minimum Monthly Rent, Tenant's Share of Real Property Taxes, Tenant's Share of Operating Costs and
any other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease which is considered reasonable
compensation for the use and occupancy of the Premises; (iii) provide Landlord a minimum of thirty (30)
calendar days prior written notice, unless a shorter period is agreed to in writing by the parties, of any
proceeding relating to any assumption of this Lease or any intent to abandon the Premises, which
abandonment shall be deemed a rejection of this Lease; and (iv) to perform to the benefit of Landlord as
otherwise required under the Code. The failure of Tenant to comply with the above shall result in an
automatic rejection of this Lease.
29. Limitation of Actions. Any claim, demand, right or defense of any kind by Tenant which is based
upon or arises in connection with this Lease or the negotiations prior to its execution, shall be barred
unless Tenant commences an action thereon, or interposes in a legal proceeding a defense by reason
thereof, within one (1) year after the date Tenant actually becomes aware of the act or omission on which
such claim, demand, right or defense is based.
30. Landlord Default. Landlord shall be in default hereunder if in the performance of any materially
substantial covenant or condition which Landlord is required to observe and to perform, and such default
shall continue for thirty (30) calendar days, except in case of emergency(in which event Tenant may act
14
immediately to cure such Landlord default), or, if the default cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty
(30) calendar day period if Landlord shall fail to commence such cure within such thirty(30) calendar day
period and/or thereafter fail to proceed diligently through completion. Upon a default by Landlord under
this Lease, Tenant shall have the right, at its option, to exercise such remedies as may be provided in this
Lease or by law or equity and in the event Tenant expends any funds in curing any such Landlord default,
Tenant may offset such funds, together with interest at the Default Rate, against any sums due and owing
to Landlord thereafter hereunder including, without limitation, against the next installment(s) of Minimum
Rent and additional rent then coming due.
31. Limitation on Landlord's Liability. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding,
covenants, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of Landlord are made and intended not
as personal covenants, undertakings and agreements or for the purpose of binding Landlord personally or
the assets of Landlord except Landlord's interest in the Property, but are made and intended for the
purpose of binding only the Landlord's interest in the Property. No personal liability or personal
responsibility is assumed by, nor shall at any time be asserted or enforceable against Landlord or its
partners and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns on account of this
Lease or on account of any covenant, undertaking or agreement of Landlord contained in this Lease.
32. Signs. Tenant shall not place, construct or maintain any sign, advertisement, awning, banner or
other exterior decoration without Landlord's prior written consent. Any sign that Tenant has Landlord's
prior written consent to place, construct and maintain shall comply with all Laws, and Tenant shall obtain

obtain such approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant have agreed to allow Tenant

representatives acting within the scope of their duties and responsibilities. Tenant shall not be entitled to an
abatement or reduction of Rent if Landlord exercises any right reserved in this Section. Landlord shall
conduct its activities on the Premises as allowed in this Section in a reasonable manner so as to cause
minimal inconvenience, annoyance or disturbance to Tenant.
34. Subordination. This Lease is and shall be prior to any mortgage recorded after the date of this
Lease affecting the Property. If, however, a lender requires that this Lease be subordinate to any
mortgage, this Lease shall be subordinate to that mortgage if Landlord first obtains from the lender a
written agreement that provides substantially the following:
"As long as Tenant performs its obligations under this Lease, no foreclosure of,
deed given in lieu of foreclosure of, or sale under the mortgage, and no steps or
procedures taken under the mortgage, shall affect Tenant's rights under this Lease."

certificate shall also state the amount of Minimum Monthly Rent, the dates to which Rent has been paid in
advance, and the amount of any Prepaid Rent or Security Deposit and such other matters as Landlord
may reasonably request. Failure to deliver the certificate within such ten (10) business day period shall be
conclusive upon Tenant for the benefit of Landlord and any successor to Landlord, that this Lease is in
full force and effect and has not been modified except as may be represented by Landlord requesting the
certificate.
36. Transfer of Landlord's Interest. If Landlord sells or transfers the Property, Landlord, on

the date in any notice given by Landlord to Tenant terminating this Lease, such possession by Tenant
shall be deemed to be a tenancy at sufferance terminable at any time by either party.
(b) Holding Over with Landlord's Consent. If Tenant, with Landlord's prior written consent,
remains in possession of the Premises after expiration or termination of the Term, or after the date in any
notice given by Landlord to Tenant terminating this Lease, such possession by Tenant shall be deemed
to be a month-to-month tenancy terminable by Landlord by a notice given to Tenant at least twenty (20)
calendar days prior to the end of any such monthly period or by Tenant by a written or electronic notice
given to Landlord at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the end of any such monthly period. During
