SECTION 4.2. OPERATING EXPENSES.

(a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, Tenant’s Share of all Operating Expenses, as defined in Section 4.2(f), incurred by Landlord in the operation of the Building and the Project. The term “ Tenant’s Share ” means that portion of any Operating Expenses determined by multiplying the cost of such item by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Floor Area and the denominator of which is the total rentable square footage, as determined from time to time by Landlord, of (i) the Building, for expenses determined by Landlord to benefit or relate substantially to the Building rather than the entire Project, (ii) all of the buildings in the Project, as determined by Landlord, for expenses determined by Landlord to benefit or relate substantially to the entire Project rather than any specific building or (iii) all or some of the buildings within the Project as well as all or a portion of other property owned by Landlord and/or its affiliates, for expenses which benefit or relate to such buildings within the Project and such other real property. In the event that Landlord determines in its sole and absolute discretion that any premises within the Building or any building within the Project or any portion of a building or project within a larger area incurs a non-proportional benefit from any expense, or is the non-proportional cause of any such expense, Landlord may, allocate a greater percentage of such Operating Expense to such premises, building or project, as applicable. The full amount of any management fee payable by Landlord for the management of Tenant’s Premises that is calculated as a percentage of the rent payable by Tenant shall be paid full by Tenant as additional rent.

(b) Prior to the start of each full Expense Recovery Period (as defined in this Section 4.2), Landlord shall give Tenant a written estimate of the amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the applicable Expense Recovery Period. Failure to provide such estimate shall not relieve Tenant from its obligation to pay Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses or estimated amounts thereof, if and when Landlord provides such estimate or final payment amount. Tenant shall pay the estimated amounts to Landlord in equal monthly installments, in advance concurrently with payments of Basic Rent. If Landlord has not furnished its written estimate for any Expense Recovery Period by the time set forth above, Tenant shall continue to pay monthly the estimated Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses in effect during the prior Expense Recovery Period; provided that when the new estimate is delivered to Tenant, Tenant shall, at the next monthly payment date, pay any accrued estimated Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses based upon the new estimate. For purposes hereof, “ Expense Recovery Period ” shall mean every twelve month period during the Term (or portion thereof for the first and last lease years) commencing July 1 and ending June 30, provided that Landlord shall have the right to change the date on which an Expense Recovery Period commences in which event appropriate reasonable adjustments shall be made to Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses so that the amount payable by Tenant shall not materially vary as a result of such change.

(c) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Expense Recovery Period, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual or prorated Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord during the period, and the parties shall within thirty (30) days thereafter make any payment or allowance necessary to adjust Tenant’s estimated payments of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, if any, to the actual Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses as shown by the annual statement. Any delay or failure by Landlord in delivering any statement hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord’s right to require Tenant to pay Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses pursuant hereto. Any amount due Tenant shall be credited against installments next coming due under this Section 4.2, and any deficiency shall be paid by Tenant together with the next installment. Should Tenant fail to object in writing to Landlord’s determination of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses within sixty (60) days following delivery of Landlord’s expense statement, Landlord’s determination of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the applicable Expense Recovery Period shall be conclusive and binding on the parties for all purposes and any future claims to the contrary shall be barred.

(d) Even though this Lease has terminated and the Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the Expense Recovery Period in which this Lease terminates, Tenant shall within thirty (30) days of written notice pay the entire increase over the estimated Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses already paid. Conversely, any overpayment by Tenant shall be rebated by Landlord to Tenant not later than thirty (30) days after such final determination.

(e) If, at any time during any Expense Recovery Period, any one or more of the Operating Expenses are increased to a rate(s) or amount(s) in excess of the rates(s) or amount(s) used in calculating the estimated Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the year, then the estimate of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses may be increased by written notice from Landlord for the month in which such rate(s) or amount(s) becomes effective and for all succeeding months by an amount equal to Tenant’s Share of the increase. If Landlord gives Tenant written notice of the amount or estimated amount of the increase, the month in which the increase will or has become effective, then Tenant shall pay the increase to Landlord as a part of Tenant’s monthly payments of the estimated Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses as provided in Section 4.2(b), commencing with the month following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice. In addition, Tenant shall pay upon written request any such increase which were incurred prior to the Tenant commencing to pay such monthly increase.

(f) The term “ Operating Expenses ” shall mean and include all Project Costs, as defined in subsection (g), and Property Taxes, as defined in subsection (h).

(g) The term “ Project Costs ” shall include all expenses of operation, repair and maintenance of the Building and the Project, including without limitation all appurtenant Common Areas (as defined in Section 6.2), and shall include the following charges by way of illustration but not limitation; water and sewer charges; insurance premiums and deductibles and/or reasonable premium and deductible equivalents should Landlord elect to self-insure all or any portion of any risk that Landlord is authorized to insure hereunder; license, permit, and

The occupancy by Tenant of the Premises shall include the use of the Common Areas in common with Landlord and with all others for whose convenience and use the Common Areas may be provided by Landlord, subject, however, to compliance with all rules and regulations as are prescribed from time to time by Landlord. Landlord shall operate and maintain the Common Areas in the manner Landlord may determine to be appropriate. All costs incurred by Landlord for the maintenance and operation of the Common Areas shall be included in Project Costs except to the extent any particular cost incurred is related to or associated with a specific tenant and can be charged to such tenant of the Project. Landlord shall at all times during the Term have exclusive control of the Common Areas, and may restrain or permit any use or occupancy, except as authorized by Landlord’s rules and regulations. Tenant shall keep the Common Areas clear of any obstruction or unauthorized use related to Tenant’s operations or use of Premises, including without limitation, planters and furniture. Nothing in this Lease shall be deemed to impose liability upon Landlord for any damage to or loss of the property of, or for any injury to, Tenant, its invitees or employees. Landlord may temporarily close any portion of the Common Areas for repairs, remodeling and/or alterations, to prevent a public dedication or the accrual of prescriptive rights, or for any other reason deemed sufficient by Landlord, without liability to Landlord.

SECTION 6.4. PARKING. Tenant shall be entitled to the number of vehicle parking spaces set forth in Item 14 of the Basic Lease Provisions, which spaces shall be unreserved and unassigned, on those portions of the Common Areas designated by Landlord for parking. Tenant shall not use more parking spaces than such number. All parking spaces shall be used only for parking of vehicles no larger than full size passenger automobiles, sports utility vehicles or pickup trucks. Tenant shall not permit or allow any vehicles that belong to or are controlled by Tenant or Tenant’s employees, suppliers, shippers, customers or invitees to be loaded, unloaded or parked in areas other than those designated by Landlord for such activities. If Tenant permits or allows any of the prohibited activities described above, then Landlord shall have the right, without notice, in addition to such other rights and remedies that Landlord may have, to remove or tow away the vehicle involved and charge the cost to Tenant. Parking within the Common Areas shall be limited to striped parking stalls, and no parking shall permitted in any driveways, access ways or in any area which would prohibit or impede the free flow of traffic within the Common Areas. There shall be no parking of any vehicles for longer than a forty-eight (48) hour period unless otherwise authorized by Landlord, and vehicles which have been abandoned or parked in violation of the terms hereof may be towed away at the owner’s expense. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed to create liability upon Landlord for any damage to motor vehicles of visitors or employees, for any loss of property from within those motor vehicles, or for any injury to Tenant, its visitors or employees, unless ultimately determined to be caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to establish, and from time to time amend, and to enforce against all users all reasonable rules and regulations (including the designation of areas of employee parking) that Landlord may deem necessary and advisable for the proper and efficient operation and maintenance of parking within the Common Areas. Landlord shall have the right to construct, maintain and operate lighting facilities within the parking areas; to change the area, level, location and arrangement of the parking areas and improvements therein; to restrict parking by tenants, their officers, agents and employees to employee parking areas; to enforce parking charges (by operation of meters or otherwise); and to do and perform such other acts in and to the parking areas and improvements therein as, in the use of good business judgment, Landlord shall determine to be advisable. Any person using the parking area shall observe all directional signs and arrows and any posted speed limits. In no event shall Tenant interfere with the use and enjoyment of the parking area by other tenants of the Project or their employees or invitees. Parking areas shall be used only for parking vehicles. Washing, waxing, cleaning or servicing of vehicles, or the storage of vehicles for longer than 48-hours, is prohibited unless otherwise authorized by Landlord. Tenant shall be liable for any damage to the parking areas caused by

7

Tenant or Tenant’s employees, suppliers, shippers, customers or invitees, including without limitation damage from excess oil leakage. Tenant shall have to install any fixtures, equipment or personal property in the parking areas.

SECTION 6.5. CHANGES AND ADDITIONS BY LANDLORD. Landlord reserves the right to make alterations or additions to the Building or the Project, or to the attendant fixtures, equipment and Common Areas. Landlord may at any time relocate or remove any of the various buildings, parking areas, and other Common Areas, and may add buildings and areas to the Project from time to time. No change shall entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent or other claim against landlord, provided that the change does not deprive Tenant of reasonable access to or use of the Premises.

ARTICLE VII. MAINTAINING THE PREMISES

SECTION 7.1. TENANT’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. Tenant at its sole expense shall maintain and make all repairs and replacements necessary to keep the Premises in the condition as existed on the Commencement Date (or on any later date that the improvements may have been installed), excepting ordinary wear and tear, including without limitation all interior glass, doors, door closures, hardware, fixtures, electrical, plumbing, fire extinguisher equipment and other equipment installed in the Premises and all Alterations constructed by Tenant pursuant to Section 7.3 below. Any damage or deterioration of the Premises shall not be deemed ordinary wear and tear if the same could have been prevented by good maintenance practices by Tenant. As part of its maintenance obligations hereunder, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, provide Landlord with copies of all maintenance schedules, reports and notices prepared by, for or on behalf of Tenant. All repairs and replacements shall be at least equal in quality to the original work, shall be made only by a licensed contractor approved in writing in advance by Landlord and shall be made only at the time or times approved by Landlord. Any contractor utilized by Tenant shall be subject to Landlord’s standard requirements for contractors, as modified from time to time. Landlord may impose reasonable restrictions and requirements with respect to repairs, as provide in Section 7.3, and the provisions of Section 7.4 shall apply to all repairs. Alternatively, Landlord may elect to perform any repair and maintenance of the electrical and mechanical systems and any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment serving the Premises and include the cost thereof as part of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses. If Tenant fails to properly maintain and/or repair the Premises as herein provided following Landlord’s notice and the expiration of the applicable cure period (or earlier if Landlord determines that such work must be performed prior to such time in order to avoid damage to the Premises or Building or other detriment), then Landlord may elect, but shall have no obligation, to perform any repair or maintenance required hereunder on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant’s expense, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for all costs incurred upon submission of an invoice.

SECTION 7.2. LANDLORD’ S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. Subject to Section 7.1 and Article XI, Landlord shall provide service, maintenance and repair with respect to any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which serves the Premises (exclusive, however, of supplemental HVAC equipment serving only the Premises), and shall maintain in good repair the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (including exterior glass), and the structural, electrical and mechanical systems, except that Tenant at its expense shall make all repairs which Landlord deems reasonably necessary as a result of the act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, subtenants or contractors. Landlord shall have the right to employ or designate any reputable person or firm, including any employee or agent of Landlord or any Landlord’s affiliates or divisions, to perform any service, repair or maintenance function. Landlord need to make any other improvements or repairs except as specifically required under this Lease, and nothing contained in this Section shall limit Landlord’s right to reimbursement from Tenant for maintenance, repair, costs and replacement costs as provided elsewhere in this Lease. Tenant understands that it shall not make repairs at Landlord’s expense or by rental offset. Tenant further understands that Landlord shall not be required to make any repairs to the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (excluding exterior glass), or structural, electrical or mechanical systems unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord in writing of the need for such repair and Landlord shall have a reasonable period of time thereafter to commence and complete said repair, if warranted. All costs of any maintenance, repairs and replacement on the part of Landlord provided hereunder shall be considered part of Project Costs. Tenant further agrees that if Tenant fails to report any such need for repair in writing within sixty (60) days of its discovery by Tenant, Tenant shall be responsible for any costs and expenses and other damages related to such repair which are in excess of those which would have resulted had such need for repair been reported to Landlord within such sixty (60) day period.

SECTION 7.3. ALTERATIONS. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, Tenant shall make no alterations, additions, fixtures or improvements (“ Alterations ”) to the Premises or the Building without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. In the event that any requested Alteration would result in a change from Landlord’s building standard materials and specifications for the Project (“ Standard Improvement ”), Landlord may withhold consent to such Alteration in its sole and absolute discretion. In the event Landlord so consents to a change from the Standard Improvements (such change being referred to as a “ Non-Standard Improvements ”), Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of replacing such Non-Standard Improvement with the applicable Standard Improvement (“ Replacements ”) which Replacements shall be completed prior to the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any Alterations which cost less than One Dollar ($1.00) per square foot of the improved portions of the Premises (excluding warehouse square footage) and do not (i) affect the exterior of the Building or outside areas (or be visible from adjoining sites), or (ii) affect or penetrate any of the structural portions of the Building, including but not limited to the roof, or (iii) required any change to the basic floor plan of the Premises (including, without limitation, the adding of any additional “office” square footage) or any change to any structural or mechanical systems of the Premises, or (iv) fail to comply with any applicable governmental requirements or require any governmental permit as a prerequisite to the construction thereof, or (v) result in the Premises requiring building services beyond the level normally provided to other tenants, or (vi) interfere in any manner with the proper functioning of, or Landlord’s access to, any mechanical, electrical, plumbing or HVAC

8

systems, facilities or equipment located in or serving the Building, or (vii) diminish the value of the Premises including, without limitation, using lesser quality materials than those existing in the Premises, or (viii) alter or replace Standard Improvements. Landlord may impose any condition to its consent, including but not limited to a requirement that the installation and/or removal of all Alterations and Replacements be covered by a lien and completion bond satisfactory to Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion and requirements as to the manner and time of performance of such work. Landlord shall in all events, whether or not Landlord’s consent is required, have the right to approve the contractor performing the installation and removal of Alterations and Replacements and Tenant shall not permit any contractor not approved by Landlord to perform any work on the Premises or on the Building. Tenant shall obtain all required permits for the installation and removal of Alterations and Replacements and shall perform the installation and removal of Alterations and Replacements in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations and ordinances, including without limitation the Americans with Disabilities Act, all covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project, and the Rules and Regulations as described in Article XVII. Tenant understands and agrees that Landlord shall be entitled to a supervision fee in the amount of five percent (5%) of the cost of the Alterations. Under no circumstances shall Tenant make any Alterations or Replacements which incorporate any Hazardous Materials, including without limitation asbestos-containing construction materials into the Premises, the Building or the Common Area. If any governmental entity requires, as a condition to any proposed Alterations by Tenant, that improvements be made to the Common Areas, and if Landlord consents to such improvements to the Common Areas (which consent may be withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord), then Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole expense, make such required improvements to the Common Areas in such manner, utilizing such materials, and with such contractors, architects and engineers as Landlord may require in its absolute discretion. Any request for Landlord’s consent to any proposed Alterations shall be made in writing and shall contain architectural plans describing the work in detail reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Unless Landlord otherwise agrees in writing, all Alterations made or affixed to the Premises, the Building or to the Common Area (excluding moveable trade fixtures and furniture), shall become the property of Landlord and shall be surrendered with the Premises at the end of the Term; except that Landlord may, by notice to Tenant given either prior to or following the expiration or termination of this Lease, require Tenant to remove by the Expiration Date, or sooner termination date of this Lease, or within ten (10) days following notice to Tenant that such removal is required if notice is given following the Expiration Date or sooner termination, all or any of the Alterations installed either by Tenant or by Landlord at Tenant’s request, and to repair any damage to the Premises, the Building or the Common Area arising from that removal and restore the Premises to their condition prior to making such Alterations.

SECTION 7.4 MECHANIC’S LIENS. Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or for Tenant. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) business days following such request) cause any such lien to be released by posting a bond in accordance with California Civil Code Section 3143 or any successor statute. In the event that Tenant shall not, within thirty (30) days following the imposition of any lien, cause the lien to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other available remedies, the right to cause the lien to be released by any means it deems proper, including payment of or defense against the claim giving rise to the lien. All expenses so incurred by Landlord, including Landlord’s attorneys’ fees, and any consequential or other damages incurred by Landlord arising out of such lien, shall be reimbursed by Tenant upon demand, together with interest from the date of payment by Landlord at the maximum rate permitted by law until paid. Tenant shall give no less than twenty (20) days’ prior notice in writing before commencing construction of any kind on the Premises or Common Area and shall again notify Landlord that construction has commenced, such notice to be given on the actual date on which construction commences, so that Landlord may post and maintain notices of nonresponsibility on the Premises or Common Area, as applicable, which notices Landlord shall have the right to post and which Tenant agrees it shall not disturb. Tenant shall also provide Landlord notice in writing within ten (10) days following the date on which such work is substantially completed. The provisions of this Section shall expressly survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

SECTION 7.5. ENTRY AND INSPECTION. Landlord shall at all reasonable times, upon written or oral notice (except in emergencies, when no notice shall be required) have the right to enter the Premises to inspect them, to supply services in accordance with this Lease, to have access to install, repair, maintain, replace or remove all electrical and mechanical installations of Landlord and to protect the interests of Landlord in the Premises, and to submit the Premises to prospective or actual purchasers or encumbrance holders (or, during the last one hundred and eighty (180) days of the Term or when an uncured Tenant Event of Default exists, to prospective tenants), all without being deemed to have caused an eviction of Tenant and without abatement of rent except as provided elsewhere in this Lease. Landlord shall have the right, if desired, to retain a key which unlocks all of the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises, and any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord shall not under any circumstances be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or any eviction of Tenant from the Premises.

SECTION 7.6. SPACE PLANNING AND SUBSTITUTION. Landlord shall have the right, upon providing not less than forty-five (45) days written notice, to move Tenant to other space of substantially comparable size in the Building, the Project or in other space owned by Landlord within three (3) miles of the Building (“New Premises”), and this Lease shall continue in effect except that the Premises hereunder shall be redefined to mean the New Premises. The New Premises shall be provided with improvements of comparable quality to those within the existing Premises. Landlord shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket costs to relocate and reconnect Tenant’s personal property and equipment within the New Premises; provided that Landlord may elect to cause such work to be done by its contractors. Landlord shall also reimburse Tenant for such other reasonable out-of-pocket costs that Tenant may incur in connection with the relocation, including without limitation necessary stationery revisions, provided that a reasonable estimate thereof is given to Landlord within twenty (20) days following Landlord’s notice. In no event, however, shall Landlord be obligated to incur or fund total relocation costs, exclusive of tenant improvement expenditures, in an amount in excess of two (2) months of Basic Rent at the

9

rate then payable hereunder. Within ten (10) days following request by Landlord, Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease prepared by Landlord to memorialize the relocation. Should Tenant fail timely to execute and deliver the amendment to Landlord for any reason or in the event of any other breach of this Section 7.6 such failure or breach shall be an Event of Default and damages to Landlord as a result shall be determined on the assumption that the New Premises have become the Premises as defined in this Lease, regardless of whether Tenant has signed the requested amendment, in addition to damages payable to Landlord which result from any failure by Tenant to vacate the existing Premises, as well as any other damages or remedies available to Landlord as a result of such Event of Default.

ARTICLE VIII. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS ON TENANT’S PROPERTY

Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, at least ten (10) days before delinquency, all taxes and assessments levied against all personal property of Tenant located in the Premises, and, if required by Landlord, against all Non Standard Improvements to the Premises (as defined in Section 7.3) made by Landlord or Tenant, and against any Alterations (as defined in Section 7.3) made to the Premises or the Building by or on behalf of Tenant. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall cause its personal property, Non-Standard Improvements and Alterations to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of which the Premises form a part. If any taxes required to be paid by Tenant on Tenant’s personal property, Non-Standard Improvements and/or Alterations are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property and if Landlord pays the same, or if the assessed value of Landlord’s property is increased by the inclusion of a value placed upon the personal property, Non-Standard Improvements and/or Alterations and if Landlord pays the taxes based upon the increased assessment, Landlord shall have the right to require that Tenant pay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord or the proportion of the taxes resulting from the increase in the assessment. In calculating what portion of any tax bill which is assessed against Landlord separately, or Landlord and Tenant jointly, is attribute to Tenant’s Non-Standard Improvements, Alterations and personal property, Landlord’s reasonable determination shall be conclusive.

ARTICLE IX. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

SECTION 9.1 RIGHTS OF PARTIES.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, and except as to transfers expressly permitted without Landlord’s consent pursuant to Section 9.4, Tenant will not, either voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, sublet, encumber, or otherwise transfer all or any part of Tenant’s interest in this Lease or the Premises, or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1(b). No assignment (whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law) and no subletting shall be valid or effective without Landlord’s prior written consent and, at Landlord’s election, any such assignment or subletting shall be void and of no force and elect and any such attempted assignment or subletting shall constitute an Event of Default of this Lease. Landlord shall not be deemed to have given its consent to any assignment or subletting by any course of action, including its acceptance of any name for listing in the Building directory, other than written consent. To the extent not prohibited by provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq ., (the “ Bankruptcy Code ”), including Section 365(f)(1), Tenant on behalf of itself and its creditors, administrators and assigns waives the applicability of Section 365(e) of the Bankruptcy Code unless the proposed assignee of the Trustee for the estate of the bankrupt meets Landlord’s standard for consent as set forth in Section 9.1(b) of this Lease. If this Lease is assigned to any person or entity pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, any and all monies or other considerations to be delivered in connection with the assignment shall be delivered to Landlord, shall be and remain the exclusive property of Landlord and shall not constitute property of Tenant or of the estate of Tenant within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code. Any person or entity to which this Lease is assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed to have assumed all of the obligations arising under this Lease on and after the date of the assignment, and shall upon demand execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument confirming that assumption.

(b) If Tenant desires to transfer an interest in this Lease or the Premises, it shall first notify Landlord of its desire and shall submit in writing to Landlord: (i) the name and address of the proposed transferee; (ii) the nature of any proposed transferee’s business to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) the terms and provisions of any proposed sublease, assignment or other transfer, including a copy of the proposed assignment, sublease or transfer form; (iv) evidence that the proposed assignee, subtenant or transferee will comply with the requirements of Exhibit D hereto; (v) a completed Environmental Questionnaire from the proposed assignee, subtenant or transferee; (vi) any other information requested by Landlord and reasonably related to the transfer and (vii) the fee described in Section 9.1(e). Expect as provided in Section 9.1 (c), Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent, provided that the parties agree that it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent if: (1) the use of the Premises will not be consistent with the provisions of this Lease or with Landlord’s commitment to other tenants of the Building and Project; (2) the proposed assignee or subtenant has been required by any prior landlord, lender or governmental authority to take remedial action in connection with Hazardous Materials contaminating a property arising out of the proposed assignee’s or subtenant’s actions or use of the property in question or is subject to any enforcement order issued by any governmental authority in connection with the use, disposal or storage of a Hazardous Materials; (3) insurance requirements of the proposed assignee or subtenant may not be brought into conformity with Landlord’s then current leasing practice; (4) a proposed subtenant or assignee has not demonstrated to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord that it is financially responsible or has failed to submit to Landlord all reasonable information as requested by Landlord concerning the proposed subtenant or assignee, including, but not limited to, a certified balance sheet of the proposed subtenant or assignee as of a date within ninety (90) days of the request of Landlord’s consent, statements of income or profit and loss of the proposed subtenant or assignee for the two-year period preceding the request for Landlord’s consent, and/or a certification signed by the proposed subtenant or assignee that it has not been evicted or been in arrears in rent at any other leased premises for the 3-year period preceding the request for Landlord’s consent; (5) any proposed subtenant or assignee has not demonstrated to

10

Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction a record of successful experience in business; (6) the proposed assignee or subtenant is an existing tenant of the Building or Project or a prospect with whom Landlord is negotiating to become a tenant at the Building or Project; or (7) the proposed transfer will impose additional burdens or adverse tax effects on Landlord. If Tenant has any exterior sign rights under this Lease, such rights are personal to Tenant and may not be assigned or transferred to any assignee of this Lease or subtenant of the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion.

If Landlord consents to the proposed transfer, Tenant may within ninety (90) days after the date of the consent effect the transfer upon the terms described in the information furnished to Landlord; provided that any material change in the terms shall be subject to Landlord’s consent as set forth in
