4. Early Entry

provided that Lessee has delivered to Lessor the New Letter of
Credit (as defined below), certificates evidencing the insurance
required under the Lease, Lessee and its employees and contractors
may enter the New Premises, at Lessee’s sole risk, for the
sole purpose of installing Lessee’s trade fixtures,
equipment, telecommunications systems and other equipment therein
and for constructing the Lessee Improvements (as defined in the
Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B ) to be made to the
New Premises. Lessee’s occupancy of the New Premises prior to
the New Premises Commencement Date shall be on all of the terms and

same terms and provisions contained in the Lease, except that the
Base Rent payable by Lessee during any such extended term shall be
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Rent
for the Premises (as that term is defined in Section 3.02 of
the Lease) as of the commencement of such extended term. Lessee
shall exercise such New Extension Options, if at all, by providing
Lessor with written notice thereof no sooner than twelve
(12) months nor later than nine (9) months prior to the
expiration of the then-applicable term or renewal term, as
applicable, for the New Premises or Existing Premises, whichever is
earlier. Lessee’s exercise of the above New Extension Options
shall otherwise be subject to the remaining terms and provisions
contained in Section 3.02 of the Lease, including but not
limited to the conditions for exercise of the Option to Extend set
forth Section 3.02(a). Lessee may only exercise the foregoing
New Extension Options with respect to the entire Premises, and may

7. Letters of Credit
Security . Lessor is currently holding a letter of
credit security in the amount of Eight Hundred Sixty-One Thousand
Four Hundred Sixteen and 60/100 Dollars ($861,416.60), which was
delivered by Lessee to Lessor pursuant to Section 4.06 of the
Lease (the “Existing Letter of Credit Security”). Upon
execution of this First Amendment, Lessee shall deposit with Lessor
an unconditional, irrevocable letter of credit in substantially the
same form as the Existing Letter of Credit Security, in an amount
of Eight Hundred Forty-Nine Thousand Nineteen & 20/100
Dollars ($849,019.20) (the “New Letter of Credit
Security”), which New Letter of Credit Security shall replace
the Existing Letter of Credit Security. The New Letter of Credit
Security will be subject to all of the terms and conditions
applicable to the Existing Letter of Credit Security set forth in
Section 4.06 of the Lease. Promptly upon receipt of the New
Letter of Credit Security, Lessor shall return the Existing Letter
of Credit Security to Lessee.
8. Condition of the
Premises .
a. Existing Premises.
Lessee acknowledges that it has been and continues to be in
possession of the Existing Premises, is familiar with the condition
of the Existing Premises and accepts the Existing Premises in its
presently existing, “AS IS” and “WITH ALL
FAULTS” condition, without representation, warranty or
improvements by Lessor of any kind whatsoever.
b. New Premises.
Lessor represents and warrants to Lessee that upon delivery of the
New Premises to Lessee, the Building roof shall be in water-tight
condition and the base building plumbing, electrical, elevators,
bathroom cores and roll up doors in good working condition and the
interior and exterior of the Building in compliance (without regard
to the specific use for which Lessee will use the New Premises)
with Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. In
the event that Lessee determines, and Lessee notifies Lessor in
writing within nine (9) months after the New Premises
Commencement Date, that any of the obligations of Lessor set forth
in this Section 8(b) were not performed, and such failure is
not due to Alterations or Tenant Improvements to the Premises made
by Lessee or Lessee’s activities at the Premises, then it
shall be the obligation of Lessor (and together with its rights
under Section 12.03 of the Lease the sole right and remedy of
Lessee), after receipt of written notice from Lessee setting forth
with specificity the nature of the failed performance, to promptly,
within a reasonable time and at Lessor’s sole cost, correct
same. Except as to certain defects which remain Lessor’s
responsibility under Section 6.01(b) of the Lease,
Lessee’s failure to give such written notice to Lessor within
nine (9) months after the New Premises Commencement Date shall
constitute a conclusive presumption that Lessor has complied with
all of Lessor’s obligations under the foregoing
Section 8(b), and any required correction after that date
shall be performed by Lessee, at its sole cost and
expense.
c. HVAC System.
Additionally, Lessor shall, at Lessor’s sole expense, replace
the existing heating, ventilation and air conditioning
(“HVAC”) system serving the New Premises with an HVAC
system of similar tonnage to that in the Existing Premises and
provide a Building Management System pursuant to the scope of work
outlined in Exhibit C. Subject only to the foregoing (including,
but not limited to Section 8(b)) and Sections 5.04 and 6.01(b)
of the Lease, and having made such inspection of the New Premises,
Building and Project as it deemed prudent and appropriate
(including, without limitation, testing for the presence of mold),
Lessee hereby accepts the New Premises in their present condition
existing as of the New Premises Commencement Date, “AS
IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” subject to
all
-4-
applicable zoning, municipal,
county and state laws, ordinances and regulations governing and
regulating the use and condition of the New Premises and any
covenants or restrictions, liens, encumbrances and title exceptions
of record. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, Lessee
acknowledges that neither Lessor nor any agent of Lessor has made
any representation or warranty as to the present or future
suitability of the New Premises for the conduct of Lessee’s
business. Lessor shall reimburse tenant for all costs associated
with installation of all pneumatic controls, as well as repair of
existing VAV boxes as necessary, which reimbursement shall not be
deemed to constitute part of the New Premises Allowance; provided
however, that Lessor shall have the option, at Lessor’s
election, to install the foregoing pneumatic controls and perform
any such necessary repairs to the existing VAV boxes
itself.
9. Right of First
Offer . As of the date of this First Amendment,
Section 17.24 of the Lease is hereby terminated and deleted in
its entirety and replaced with the following:
a. Grant .
Subject to the terms of this Section 17.24, Lessor grants to
Lessee during the Right of First Offer Term (as defined below) a
one time only right of first offer (“Right of First
Offer”) to lease any space which is available for lease in
the building located at 430 North Mary Avenue in the Project
(“Available Space”). For the purposes of this
Section 17.24, such space shall not be deemed available for
lease, and this Right of First Offer shall not apply, if the space
in question is already leased to a tenant thereof who leases or
re-leases such space pursuant to any then-existing or future right
to extend the term of its lease or expand the size of its premises
agreed upon in writing by Lessor and such tenant.
b. Term. The term of
the Right of First Offer (“Right of First Offer Term”)
shall commence on the New Premises Commencement Date of this Lease
and shall terminate on the New Premises Expiration Date.
c. Covenants of
Lessor. Subject to the conditions precedent established by
subsection (e) below, if at any time during the Right of First
Offer Term Lessor decides to offer any Available Space for lease to
a bona fide third party, Lessor shall first provide Lessee with a
written notice (“Offer Notice”) detailing (i) the
rent at which said Available Space is being offered to the third
party, (ii) the rentable square footage and location thereof,
(iii) the date the Available Space will become available and
(iv) all other terms upon which Lessor proposes to lease the
Available Space to Lessee.
d. Exercise of
Lessee’s Right of First Offer. Subject to the conditions
precedent established by subsection (e) below, Lessee may
exercise Lessee’s Right of First Offer to lease all (but not
less than all) of the Available Space described in the Offer Notice
by providing Lessor with written notice (“Acceptance
Notice”) thereof within five (5) business days of
Lessor’s delivery to Lessee of the Offer Notice. If Lessee
does not exercise its Right of First Offer within said five
(5) business day period, Lessor shall be relieved of
Lessor’s obligation to lease the Available Space mentioned in
the Offer Notice to Lessee and the provisions of this
Section 9 shall not apply to Lessor, except if Lessor, within
one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Offer
Notice, offers the Available Space for the same time period
specified in the Offer Notice at a base rent which is less than
ninety percent (90%) of the base rent specified in the Offer
Notice, Lessor shall first re-offer such space to Lessee with those
new terms and Lessee shall have the right to exercise such new
Offer Notice within the time period set forth in this Subsection
17.24.
-5-
e. Conditions to Right of
First Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 17.24, Lessor shall have no obligation to provide
Lessee with an Offer Notice, and Lessee shall have no right to
exercise Lessee’s Right of First Offer, if: (i) Lessee
is in default either: (a) at the time Lessor seeks to lease
the Available Space in question, or at the time Lessee seeks to
give Lessor an Acceptance Notice, whichever, is relevant, or
(b) upon the date Lessee seeks to take possession of the
Available Space referenced in the Offer Notice, (ii) Lessee
has assigned this Lease or sublet more than fifty percent (50%)of
the rentable space located in the Premises to a party other than an
Affiliate, (iii) Lessee then occupies less than fifty
(50%) of the Premises; or (iv) Lessee has received more
than three (3) notices of defaults from Lessor during the Term
of this Lease. Lessee’s Right of First Offer shall be
personal to Lessee and Lessee’s Affiliate and shall not be
transferable with any assignment of this Lease or subletting of the
Premises, in each instance except to an Affiliate.
f. Terms for Right of
First Offer. In the event that Lessee exercises Lessee’s
Right of First Offer, Lessee’s occupancy of the Available
Space taken shall be on all of the same terms and conditions
described in the Offer Notice, except that the Base Rent due for
the Available Space taken shall be one hundred percent
(100%) of the Fair Market Rent (as defined in
Section 3.02(b) of the Lease) for such Available Space. In
such event, Lessee’s Share due hereunder shall also be
adjusted accordingly.
g. Amendment to Lease.
Lessor and Lessee hereby agree to execute an amendment to this
Lease (“Lease Amendment”) prior to Lessee’s
occupancy of the Available Space in question. The Lease Amendment
shall specify, among other things, the Rent, date of occupancy,
increase in Lessee’s Share and square footage of the
Available Space taken in connection with Lessee’s exercise of
Lessee’s Right of First Offer. If Lessee does not execute
such a Lease Amendment within the later of (a) five
(5) business days of Lessor’s presentation of a Lease
Amendment properly embodying the terms of the Offer Notice (as may
be amended upon the mutual agreement of the parties); and
(b) fifteen (15) business days after the date on which it
provides Lessor with the Acceptance Notice, then, at Lessor’s
option, Lessee’s rights hereunder shall be void and
terminated, but, otherwise, a valid exercise of Lessee’s
Right of First Offer shall be fully effective, whether or not such
amendment is executed.
10. Parking .
All provisions of Section 2.03 remain in full force and
effect. Lessee shall continue to have the non-exclusive use of its
proportionate share of the parking spaces located within the Common
Area, which is currently three and one-half (3.5) spaces per
one thousand (1,000) square feet of usable space within the
Premises. Currently ten (10) of Lessee’s proportionate
share of the parking spaces are marked for Lessee’s exclusive
use pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Lease and the parking
podium, while still considered part of the Common Area, shall
continue to be for the exclusive use of Lessee.
11. Furniture .
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, Lessor and
Lessee acknowledge that no furniture is being leased to Lessee in
connection with the lease of the New Premises.
-6-
12. Operating
Expenses .
a. Lessee’s
Share . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Lease, as of the New Premises Commencement Date, Lessee’s
Share of Operating Expenses for the Project shall be sixty-six and
two thirds percent (66.7%). The limitations on Lessee’s Share
of Operating Expenses during the first eighteen (18) months of
the Lease Term set forth in Section 4.04(c) of the Lease are
not applicable to the Extension Term or New Premises Term and are
hereby deleted.
b. Capital
Expenditures. As of the New Premises Commencement Date, the
thresholds relating to capital expenditures set forth in the second
paragraph of Section 4.04(a) shall be increased as follows: If
Lessee’s Share of the cost of any particular capital
expenditure to the Project exceeds Thirty Thousand Dollars
($30,000), or if Lessee’s Share of the cost of any particular
capital expenditure in either the New Premises or the Existing
Premises exceeds Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) (the
“Premises Capital Expenditure Limit”), then such cost
shall be amortized over its useful life and the amount includible
in Operating Expenses shall be limited to the monthly amortized
cost thereof. The Premises Capital Expenditure Limit shall now
apply to the Premises on a per-building basis.
13. Insurance
Deductibles . Section 7.01 of the Lease is hereby
amended to provide that, Lessee’s Share of any deductibles
under any insurance policy carried by Lessor with respect to the
Premises shall not exceed One Million Dollars
($1,000,000).
14. Lessee
Improvements . Upon execution of this First Amendment,
Lessor and Lessee shall also execute the Work Letter attached
hereto as Exhibit B (the “Work Letter”). Lessee shall
cause certain Lessee Improvements (as defined therein) to be
performed to the New Premises and Existing Premises pursuant to the
terms of the Work Letter. Lessee shall not be required to remove or
restore the initial improvements made by Lessee to the New Premises
pursuant to the Work Letter. However, all subsequent alterations
and additional improvements shall be subject to the provisions of
Section 6.03 of the Lease.
15. Stairwell
.

shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 6.03
of the Lease. The stairwell shall be similar to the stairwell added
by Lessee to the Existing Premises and all costs associated with
the addition of the stairwell shall be Lessee’s sole
responsibility. Lessee shall, subject to Lessor’s reasonable
approval, select a contractor to construct the stairwell. Lessor
agrees that Lessee shall not be required to remove the stairwell
installed in the New Premises upon expiration or earlier
termination of the Lease.
b. Existing Premises.
Lessor hereby agrees that Lessee shall not be required to remove
the stairwell installed by Lessee between the second and third
floors of the Existing Premises upon expiration or earlier
termination of the Lease. The New Letter of Credit Security shall
not include any amount for restoration of the stairwell in the
Existing Premises.
-7-
16. Fencing
. Subject to approval by the City of Sunnyvale, Lessee shall
have the right, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, to
construct a fence (type and height to be approved by Lessor, in
Lessor’s reasonable discretion, prior to commencement of
construction) at the rear of the Project and behind the parking
structure. Without limiting the foregoing, such fence shall be
consistent with the quality of the Project in general.
17. Satellite Dish
. Tenant may install a satellite dish and other similar
communications equipment on the roof of the New Premises, subject
to the terms and conditions of Section 17.25 of the
Lease.
18. Alterations
. Section 6.03 of the Lease states that Lessee may make
certain Alterations without Lessor’s consent if the cost of
such Alterations does not exceed collectively One Hundred Twenty
Thousand Dollars ($120,000) in any twelve (12) month period
(the “Alterations Limit”). The Alterations Limit shall
now apply to the Premises on a per-building basis.
19. Lessor’s
Recapture Rights . Subsection 11.06 of the Lease gives
Lessor the right to respond to a request by Lessee to assign the
Lease or sublet or otherwise transfer more than fifty percent
(50%) of the Premises (the “Recapture Threshold”)
for more than fifty percent (50%) of the Lease Term by
recapturing the “Recapture Space” on the terms
described therein. The Recapture Threshold shall now apply to the
Premises on a per-building basis.
20. Signage
. As of the date of this First Amendment, Section 17.15
of the Lease is hereby terminated and deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following:
a. Building and Monument
Signs. Subject to the terms of this Section 17.15 and the
Lease, Lessee may, at Lessee’s sole expense, install signage:
(i) on the exterior of the building in which the Existing
Premises is located, (ii) on the exterior of the building in
which the New Premises is located, and (iii) on sixty-six and
two-thirds percent (66 and 2/3%) of the monument signage for the
Project. In addition, Lessee may also install directional signage
on the grounds of the New Premises, Existing Premises and Common
Areas, subject to the provisions of this
Section 17.15.
b. Installation of
Lessee’s Signs. Lessee shall not place any sign outside
(or visible from the outside) of the New Premises or Existing
Premises without Lessor’s prior written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and subject to
Lessee’s obtaining approval by the City of Sunnyvale. Lessee,
at its sole cost and expense, after obtaining Lessor’s prior
written consent, shall install, maintain and remove prior to
expiration of this Lease (or within ten (10) days after any
earlier termination of this Lease) all signage in full compliance
with (i) all applicable laws, statutes, ordinances and
regulations, (ii) all provisions of this Lease concerning
Alterations and (iii) Lessor’s signage policy set forth
in Exhibit “C” of the Lease.
c. Illuminated
Signage. Lessor is currently working with Lessor’s sign
consultant and the City of Sunnyvale Planning Department to develop
building signage criteria that includes the provision for Lessee to
install a back lit (halo illumination) sign on the exterior of the
Existing Premises and the New Premises. Said criteria will be based
on Lessor’s reasonable judgment of appropriate sign standards
and locations for the Project, and City of
-8-
Sunnyvale Planning codes as
they pertain to illuminated signs. Furthermore, without limiting
the foregoing, Lessee acknowledges that all of Lessee’s
signage at the Project must be aesthetically uniform and as a
result, if Lessee, subject to the foregoing requirements, installs
any new back lit signage with respect to the New Premises or
otherwise, it will be also required to modify its other building
signage (including, but not limited to, the building signage for
the Existing Premises) so as to maintain consistency among the
same.
d. Termination of
Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 17.15 or the Lease, Lessee’s right to maintain a
sign on a building leased by Lessee shall immediately cease and
Lessee shall upon demand remove the signage on the exterior of the
applicable building in accordance with Subsection 17.15(f) below if
Lessor shall exercise Lessor’s recapture rights pursuant to
Section 11.06 of the Lease. The foregoing termination of right
shall apply on a per building basis.
e. Garage Signage.
Subject to the terms of this Section 17.15 and the Lease,
Lessee may, at Lessee’s sole expense, paint Lessee’s
logo on the top deck of the parking podium
structure.
f. Removal. Upon the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or of
Lessee’s right to maintain any of the building, monument or
other signs described herein, Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole
cost and expense, remove such signs, repair any damage caused by
such removal and return the area in which such sign was located to
the condition in which it existed prior to the installation of such
sign.
21. Estoppel .
Lessee hereby certifies and acknowledges, that as of the date
hereof, to the best of Lessee’s knowledge, (a) Lessor is
not in default in any respect under the Lease, (b) Lessee does
not have any defenses to its obligations under the Lease, and
(c) there are no offsets against rent payable under the Lease,
except for prepaid rent through June 30, 2008 (not to exceed
one month). Lessee acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the
representations herein set forth constitute a material
consideration to Lessor in entering into this First Amendment;
(ii) such representations are being made by Lessee for
purposes of inducing Lessor to enter into this First Amendment; and
(iii) Lessor is relying on such representations in entering
into this First Amendment.
