Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the real property described in Exhibit A (the “ Real Property ”), together with the entirety of the building to be constructed by Landlord along with the other improvements to be located thereon (collectively, the “ Premises ”) to be constructed by Landlord and Tenant, respectively, in accordance with the Work Letter, including, but not limited to, an “underground” parking structure (the “ Underground Parking Structure ”), a service loading dock, ramp and adjacent loading area, surface parking, the Loading Area (as defined in Section 5.2), and an outdoor patio area (“ Patio Area ”), all substantially in the size and location as set forth in the Design Documents, all of which are reserved for the exclusive use of Tenant and its employees, contractors, agents, invitees and guests throughout the Term of this Lease as part of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises, subject to (i) any other rights of Landlord set forth herein, (ii) any matters of public record existing as of the date of this Agreement, and (iii) any other rights or matters that are reasonably necessary for Landlord’s development of the Property as contemplated herein (such as a reciprocal driveway easement or the Reciprocal Parking Easement defined in Section 25 below) (collectively, the items in clauses (i) through (iii) above are referred to herein as “ Landlord’s Reserved Rights ”). Landlord shall not, subject to the Landlord’s Reserved Rights, operate or make available any portion of the Premises for use by any person other than Tenant during the Term as long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. Tenant shall have the exclusive right, subject to Landlord’s Reserved Rights, to use the Patio Area for employee dining, and for Tenant’s social and/or business functions, with no additional rent for such use payable by Tenant.

The “Rentable Square Footage of the Building” is estimated to be approximately ____________ square feet. Prior to the Commencement Date, the Building will be measured by Landlord’s Architect (as defined in the Work Letter) in accordance with BOMA measurement standards pursuant to BOMA ANSI Z65.1-1996, revised and readopted June 7, 1996; provided, however, that except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no floor area of the Building (nor of the Underground Parking Structure, Patio Area or Loading Area) other than (a) the first, second and third floors of the Building and (b) those portions of the upper level garage within the Building constituting a lobby area and/or used for circulation to the elevators, shall be included in the determination of the Rentable Square Footage of the Building (i.e. regardless of whether any portion of the Underground Parking Structure, Loading Area or the Building roof includes any storage areas, machinery or electrical rooms or HVAC chiller facilities, such areas shall not be included in the calculation of the rentable square feet of the Building for purposes of determining Tenant’s Minimum Monthly Rent payments and Landlord’s contribution of Tenant Improvement Allowance. If such measurement results in a change in the Rentable Square Footage of the Building from the number stated above, the Minimum Monthly Rent and the other provisions of this Lease based on square footage shall be recalculated accordingly. Rentable square footage of the Loading Area shall be measured in accordance with Section 5.2 below. Before commencement of the Initial Tenant Improvements, Landlord and Tenant will attempt to reach an agreement on the rentable square feet of the Building. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to mutually agree upon the rentable square footage of the Building, either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to demand that the parties submit the dispute as to the rentable square feet of the Building to a third party space management professional jointly for resolution. Should such a demand be made, then within ten (10) days after either party delivers written notice to the other of such demand, the parties shall select an independent third party space management professional to resolve the dispute (the “ Space Management Professional ”). Landlord shall initially retain the Space Management Professional, but the costs and expenses of the Space Management Professional shall be split between the parties (with Tenant paying Landlord its share of such costs and expenses within thirty (30)days after receiving an invoice from Landlord requesting payment thereof). Thereafter, within ten (10) days after the parties select the Space Management Professional, each party shall deliver to such Space Management Professional, in a sealed envelope, their determination of the rentable square footage of the Building. If a party fails to deliver its determination of the rentable square footage of the Building to the Space Management Professional within said ten (10) day period, and thereafter, if such party fails to deliver its determination of the rentable square footage of the Building to the Space Management Professional within five (5) days after receiving written notice from the other party demanding that its determination be delivered to the Space Management Professional, then the determination of the party providing its determination of the rentable square footage of the Building to the Space Management Professional shall be binding on the parties. Should both parties timely deliver their determination of the rentable square footage of the Building to the Space Management Professional, then within forty-eight (48) hours after receiving both determinations, the Space Management Professional shall call a meeting of the parties, and during such meeting, the Space Management Professional shall open the envelopes containing the parties determinations of the rentable square footage of the Building. If such determinations differ by less than one percent (1%) of the lower number, then the rentable square footage of the Building shall be the average of those two determinations, which number shall be binding on the parties. Moreover, upon such determination, Landlord and Tenant shall set forth such rentable square footage of the Building based on such process in a writing signed by Landlord and Tenant. If such determinations are equal to or more than one percent (1%) of the lower number, then the Space Management Professional shall field measure the rentable square feet of the Building in accordance with this Section 2.1. Thereafter, the determination of the parties as to the rentable square footage of the Building (as set forth in their submittal to the Space Management Professional) that is closest to the measurement determined by the Space Management Professional shall be the Rentable Square Footage of the Building for purposes of this Lease, and shall be binding on the parties, and shall be set forth, in a writing, signed by both Landlord and Tenant. Once the Rentable Square Footage of the Building is determined as provided in this Section 2.1, the Rentable Square Footage of the Building shall not be subject to re-measurement.

2.2 Initial Tenant Improvements. Initial Tenant Improvements to the Premises shall be completed in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “ Work Letter ”).

2.3 Delivery. Tenant shall accept possession of the Building Shell as of the date of Substantial Completion of the Building Shell, subject to the terms and conditions of the Work Letter and Landlord’s rights set forth therein to complete any Punch List Items, and Tenant’s taking possession of the Building Shell on that date shall be conclusive evidence that Tenant accepts the Building Shell in its then existing condition, and that the Building Shell was in good condition at the time possession was taken, subject to the Punch List items associated therewith.

Tenant shall accept possession of the Premises as of the date of Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Work, subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, the Work Letter and Landlord’s rights set forth therein to complete any Punch List Items, and Tenant’s taking possession of the Premises on that date shall be conclusive evidence that Tenant accepts the Premises in its then existing condition, and that the Premises were in good condition at the time possession was taken, subject to the Punch List items associated therewith.

Tenant agrees and acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Lease and the Work Letter, neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the condition of all or any portion of the Premises or the Real Property, and/or the suitability of the Premises or the Real Property for the conduct of Tenant’s business.

2.4 Construction Defects. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.3 above, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, repair or replace any “Construction Defects” (defined below) that Tenant notifies Landlord of, in writing, during the Landlord’s Warranty Period (as defined in the Work Letter). Such repair obligation is referred to herein as “ Landlord’s Warranty .” Such costs and expenses shall not be included as an Operating Expense. Moreover, if Landlord is obligated hereunder to correct a violation of Landlord’s Warranty, such corrective work shall be completed within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives notice of such Construction Defect from Tenant; provided however, if by the nature of such correction more than thirty (30) days is required to effect such correction, Landlord shall not be in default hereunder if such correction is commenced within such thirty (30) day period and is diligently pursued to completion.
