Lessor shall deliver to Lessee within sixty (60) days after the expiration of each calendar year a reasonably detailed statement showing Lessee's Share of the actual Operating Expenses incurred during the preceding year. If Lessee's payments under this paragraph 4.2(e) during said preceding calendar year exceed Lessee's Share as indicated on said statement, Lessee shall be entitled to credit the amount of such overpayment against Lessee's Share of Operating Expenses next falling due. If Lessee's payments under this paragraph during said preceding calendar year were less than Lessee's Share as indicated on said statement, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency within ten (10) days after delivery by Lessor Lessee of said statement. 5. Intentionally deleted 6. Use. 6.1 Use. The Premises shall be used and occupied only for the purpose set forth in paragraph 1.4 of the Basic Lease Provisions or any other use which is reasonably comparable to that use and for no other purpose. 6.2 Compliance with Law. (a) Lessor warrants to Lessee that the Premises, in the state existing on the date that the Lease term commences, but without regard to alterations or improvements made by Lessee or the use for which Lessee will occupy the Premises, does not violate any covenants or restrictions of record, or any applicable building code, regulation or ordinance in effect on such Lease term Commencement Date. In the event it is determined that this warranty has been violated, then it shall be the obligation of the Lessor, after written notice from Lessee, to promptly, at Lessor's able cost and expense, rectify any such violation. (b) Except as provided in paragraph 6.2(a) Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense, promptly comply with all applicable statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, covenants and restrictions of record, and requirements of any fire insurance underwriters or rating bureaus, now in effect or which may hereafter come into effect, whether or not they reflect a change in policy from that now existing during the term or any part of the term hereof, relating in any manner to the Premises and the occupation and use by Lessee of the Premises.

(a) Lessor shall deliver the Premises to Lessee in a clean condition on the Lease Commencement Date (unless Lessee is already in possession) and Lessor warrants to Lessee that the plumbing, lighting, air conditioning, and heating system in the Premises shall be in good operating condition. In the event that it is determined that this warranty has been violated, then it shall be the obligation of Lessor, after receipt of written notice from Lessee setting forth with specificity the nature of the violation, to promptly, at Lessor's sole cost, rectify such violation. (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessee hereby accepts the Premises and the Office Building Project in their condition existing as of the Lease Commencement Date or the date that Lessee takes possession of the Premises, whichever is earlier, subject to all applicable zoning, municipal, county and state laws, ordinances and regulations governing and regulating the use of the Premises, and any easements, covenants or restrictions of record, and accepts this Lease subject thereto and to all matters disclosed thereby and by any exhibits attached hereto. Lessee acknowledges that it has satisfied itself by its own independent investigation that the Premises are suitable for its intended use, and that neither Lessor nor Lessor's agent or agents has made any representation or warranty as to the present or future suitability of the Premises, Common Areas, or Office Building Project for the conduct of Lessee's business. 7. Maintenance, Repairs, Alterations and Common Area Services. 7.1 Lessor's Obligations. Lessor shall keep the Office Building Project, including the Premises, exterior walls, roof, and common areas, and the equipment whether used exclusively for the Premises or in common with other premises, in good condition and repair; provided, however, Lessor shall not be obligated to paint, repair or replace wall coverings, or to repair or replace any improvements that are not ordinarily a part of the Building or are above then Building standards except as provided in paragraph 9.5 there shall be no abatement of rent or liability of Lessee on account of any injury or interference with Lessee's business with respect to any improvements, alterations or repairs made by Lessor to the Office Building Project or any part thereof. Lessee expressly waives the benefits of any statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford Lessee the right to make repairs at Lessor's expense or to terminate this Lease because of Lessor's failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair. 7.2 Lessee's Obligations. (a) Notwithstanding Lessor's obligation to keep the Premises in good condition and repair, Lessee shall be responsible for payment of the cost thereof to Lessor as additional rent for that portion of the cost of any maintenance and repair of the Premises, or any equipment (wherever located) that serves only Lessee or the Premises, to the extent such cost is attributable to causes beyond normal wear and tear. Lessee shall be responsible for the cost of painting, repairing or replacing wall coverings and to repair or replace any Premises improvements that are not ordinarily a part of the Building or that are above then Building standards. Lessor may, at its option, upon reasonable notice, elect to have Lessee perform any particular such maintenance or repairs the cost of which is otherwise Lessee's responsibility hereunder. (b) On the last day of the term hereof, or on any sooner termination, Lessee shall surrender the Premises to Lessor in the same condition as received, ordinary wear and tear excepted, clean and free of debris. 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 Lessee. Lessee shall repair any damage to the Premises occasioned by the installation or removal of Lessee's trade fixtures, alterations, furnishings and equipment. Except as otherwise stated in this Lease, Lessee shall leave the air lines, power panels, electrical distribution systems, lighting fixtures, air conditioning, window coverings, wall coverings, carpets, wall panelling, ceilings and plumbing on the Premises and in good operating condition. 7.3 Alterations and Additions. (a) Lessee shall not, without Lessor's prior written consent, make any alterations, improvements, additions, Utility Installations or repairs in, on or about the Premises, or the Office Building Project. As used in this paragraph 7.3 the term "Utility Installation" shall mean carpeting, window and wall coverings, power panels, electrical distribution systems, lighting fixtures, air conditioning, plumbing and telephone and telecommunication wiring and equipment. At the expiration of the term, Lessor may require the removal of any or all of said alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations, and the restoration of the Premises and the Office Building Project to their prior condition, at Lessee's expense. Should Lessor permit Lessee to make its own alterations, improvements, additions, or Utility Installations, Lessee shall use only such contractor as has been expressly approved by Lessor, and Lessor may require Lessee to provide Lessor, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, a lien and completion bond in an amount equal to one and one-half times the estimated cost of such improvements, to insure Lessor against any liability for mechanic's and materialmen's liens and to insure completion of the work. Should Lessee make any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations without the prior approval of Lessor, or use a contractor not expressly approved by Lessor, Lessor may, at any time during the term of this Lease, require that Lessee remove any part or all of the same. (b) Any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations in or about the Premises or the Office Building Project that Lessee shall desire to make shall be presented to Lessor in written form, with proposed detailed plans. If Lessor shall give its consent to Lessee's making such alteration, improvement, addition or Utility Installation, the consent shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee acquiring a permit to do so from the applicable governmental agencies, furnishing a copy thereof to Lessor prior to the commencement of the work and the compliance by Lessee with all conditions of said permit in a prompt and expeditious manner. (c) Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use in the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanic's or materialmen's lien against the Premises, the Building or the Office Building Project, or any interest therein. (d) Lessee shall give Lessor not less than ten (10) days' notice prior to the commencement of any work in the Premises by Lessee, and Lessor shall have the right to post notices of non-responsibility in or on the Premises or the Building as provided by law. If Lessee shall, in good faith, contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then lessee shall at its sole expense defend itself and Lessor against the same and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof against the Lessor the Premises, the Building or the Office Building Project, upon the condition that if Lessor shall require, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to such contested lien claim or demand indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same and holding the Premises, the Building and the Office Building Project free from the effect of such lien or claim. In addition, Lessor may require Lessee to pay Lessor's reasonable attorneys fees and costs in participating in such action if Lessor shall decide it is to Lessor's best interest to do so. (e) All alterations, improvements, additions and Utility Installations (whether or not such Utility Installations constitute trade fixtures of Lessee), which made be made to the Premises by Lessee, including but not limited to, floor coverings, panelings, doors, drapes, built- ins, moldings, sound attenuation, and lighting and telephone or communication systems, conduit, wiring and outlets, shall be made and done in a good and workmanlike manner and of good and sufficient quality and materials and shall be the property of Lessor and remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the expiration of the Lease term, unless Lessor requires their removal pursuant to paragraph 7.3(a). Provided Lessee is not in default, notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 7.3(e), Lessee's personal property and equipment, other than that which is affixed to the Premises so that it cannot be removed without material damage to the Premises of the Building, and other than Utility Installations shall remain the property of Lessee and may be removed by Lessee subject to the provisions of paragraph 7.2. (f) Lessee shall provide Lessor with as-built plans and specifications for any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations. 7.4 Utility Additions. Lessor reserves the right to install new or additional utility facilities throughout the Office Building Project for the benefit of Lessor or Lessee, or any other lessee of the Office Building Project, including, but not by way of limitation, such utilities as plumbing, electrical systems, security systems, communication systems, and fire protection and detection systems, so long as such installations do not unreasonably interfere with Lessee's use of the Premises. 8. Insurance; Indemnity. 8.1 Liability Insurance--Lessee. Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense, obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy of Comprehensive General Liability insurance utilizing an Insurance Services Office standard form with Broad Form General Liability Endorsement (GL0404), or equivalent, in an amount of not less than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence of bodily injury and property damage combined or in a greater amount as reasonably determined by Lessor and shall insure Lessee with Lessor as an additional Insured against liability arising out of the use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises. Compliance with the above requirement shall not, however, limit the liability of Lessee hereunder. 8.2 Liability Insurance--Lessor. Lessor shall obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy of Combined Single Limit Bodily Injury and Broad Form Property Damage Insurance, plus coverage against such other risks Lessor deems advisable from time to time, insuring Lessor, but not Lessee, against liability arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Office Building Project in an amount not less than $5,000,000.00 per occurrence. 8.3 Property Insurance--Lessee. Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense, obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease for the benefit of Lessee, replacement cost fire and extended coverage insurance, with vandalism and malicious mischief, sprinkler leakage and earthquake sprinkler leakage endorsements, in an amount sufficient to cover not less than 100% of the full replacement cost, as the same may exist from time to time, of all of Lessee's personal property, fixtures, equipment and tenant improvements. 8.4 Property Insurance--Lessor. Lessor shall obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy of insurance covering loss or damage to the Office Building Project improvements, but not Lessee's personal property, fixtures, equipment or tenant improvements, in the amount of the full replacement cost thereof, as the same may exist from time to time, utilizing Insurance Services Office standard form, or equivalent, providing protection against all perils included within the classification of fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, plate glass, and such other perils as Lessor deems advisable or may be required by a lender having a lien on the Office Building Project. In addition, Lessor shall obtain and keep in force, during the term of this Lease, a policy of rental value insurance covering a period of one year, with loss payable to Lessor, which insurance shall also cover all Operating Expenses for said period. Lessee will not be named in any such policies carried by Lessor and shall have no right to any proceeds therefrom. The policies required by these paragraphs 8.2 and 8.4 shall contain such deductibles as Lessor or the aforesaid lender may determine. In the event that the Premises shall suffer an insured loss as defined in paragraph 9.1(f) hereof, the deductible amounts under the applicable insurance policies shall be deemed an Operating Expense. Lessee shall not do or permit to be done anything which shall invalidate the insurance policies carried by Lessor. Lessee shall pay the entirety of any increase in the property insurance premium for the Office Building Project over what it was immediate prior to the commencement of the term of this Lease if the increase is specified by Lessor's insurance carrier as being caused by the nature of Lessee's occupancy or any act or omission of Lessee. 8.5 Insurance Policies. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor copies of liability insurance policies required under paragraph 8.1 certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of such insurance within seven (7) days after the Commencement Date of this Lease. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to reduction of coverage or other modification except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lessor. Lessee shall at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of such policies, furnish Lessor with renewals thereof. 8.6 Waiver of Subrogation. Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and relieve the other, and waive their entire right of recovery against the other, for direct or consequential loss or damage arising out of or incident to the perils covered by property insurance carried by such party, whether due to the negligence of Lessor Lessee or their agents, employees, contractors and/or invitees. If necessary all property insurance policies required under this Lease shall be endorsed to so provide. 8.7 Indemnity. Lessee shall indemnify and hold harmless Lessor and its agents, Lessor's master or ground lessor, partners and lenders, from and against any and all claims for damage to the person or property of anyone or any entity arising from Lessee's use of the Office Building Project, or from the conduct of Lessee's business or from any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Lessee in or about the Premises or elsewhere and shall further indemnify and hold harmless Lessor from and against any and all claims, costs and expenses arising from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Lessee's part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, or arising from any act or omission of Lessee, or any of Lessee's agents, contractors, employees or invitees and from and against all costs, attorney's fees, expenses and liabilities incurred by Lessor as the result of any such use, conduct, activity, work, things done, permitted or suffered, breach, default or negligence, and in dealing reasonably therewith, including but not limited to the defense or pursuit of any claim or any action or proceeding involved therein; and in case any action or proceeding be brought against Lessor by reason of any such matter, Lessee upon notice from Lessor shall defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in such defense. Lessor need not have first paid any such claim in order to be so indemnified. Lessee, as a material part of the consideration to Lessor, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property of Lessee or injury to persons, in, upon or about the Office Building Project arising from any cause and Lessee hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against Lessor. 8.8 Exemption of Lessor from Liability. Lessee hereby agrees that Lessor shall not be liable for injury to Lessee's business or any loss of income therefrom or for loss of or damage to the goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Lessee, Lessee's employees, invitees, customers, or any other person in or about the Premises or the Office Building Project, nor shall Lessor be liable for injury to the person of Lessee, Lessee's employees, agents or contractors, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from theft, fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, whether said damage or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Office Building Project, or from other sources or places, or from new construction or the repair, alteration or improvement of any part of the Office Building Project, or of the equipment, fixtures or appurtenances applicable thereto, and regardless of whether the cause of such damage or injury or the means of repairing the same is inaccessible, Lessor shall not be liable for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other lessee, occupant or user of the Office Building Project, nor from the failure of Lessor to enforce the provisions of any other lease of any other lessee of the Office Building Project. 8.9 No Representation of Adequate Coverage. Lessor makes no representation that the limits or forms of coverage of insurance specified in this paragraph 8 are adequate to cover Lessee's property or obligations under this Lease. 9. Damage or Destruction. 9.1 Definitions. (a) "Premises Damage" shall mean if the Premises are damaged or destroyed to any extent.

(f) "Insured Loss" shall mean damage or destruction which was caused by an event required to be covered by the insurance described in paragraph 8. The fact that an insured Loss has a deductible amount shall not make the loss an uninsured loss. (g) "Replacement Cost" shall mean the amount of money necessary to be spent in order to repair or rebuild the damaged area to the condition that existed immediately prior to the damage occurring, excluding all improvements made by lessees, other than those installed by Lessor at Lessee's expense. 9.2 Premises Damage; Premises Building Partial Damage. (a) Insured Loss. Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.4 and 9.5. If at any time during the term of this Lease there is damage which is an Insured Loss and which falls into the classification of either Premises Damage or Premises Building Partial Damage, then Lessor shall, as soon as reasonably possible and to the extent the required materials and labor are readily available through usual commercial channels, at Lessor's expense, repair such damage (but not Lessee's fixtures, equipment or tenant improvements originally paid for by Lessee) to its condition existing at the time of the damage, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. (b) Uninsured Loss. Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.4 and 9.5. If at any time during the term of this Lease there is damage which is not an Insured Loss and which falls within the classification of Premises Damage or Premises Building Partial Damage, unless caused by a negligent or willful act of Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at Lessee's expense), which damage prevents Lessee from making any substantial use of the Premises, Lessor may at Lessor's option either (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) give written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Lessor's intention to cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage, in which event this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the occurrence of such damage. 9.3 Premises Building Total Destruction; Office Building Project Total Destruction.

(a) Subject to paragraph 9.4(b). If at any time during the last twelve (12) months of the term of this Lease there is substantial damage to the Premises, Lessor may at Lessor's option cancel and terminate this lease as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Lessee of Lessor's election to do so within thirty (30) days after the date of occurrence of such damage. (b) Notwithstanding paragraph 9.4(a), in the event that Lessee has an option to extend or renew this Lease, and the time within which said option may be exercised has not yet expired, Lessee shall exercise such option, if it is to be exercised at all, no later than twenty (20) days after the occurrence of an Insured Loss falling within the classification of Premises Damage during the last twelve (12) months of the term of this Lease. If Lessee duly exercises such option during said twenty (20) day period, Lessor shall, at Lessor's expense, repair such damage, but not Lessee's fixtures, equipment or tenant improvements, as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If Lessee fails to exercise such option during said twenty (20) day period, then Lessor may at Lessor's option terminate and cancel this Lease as of the expiration of said twenty (20) day period by giving written notice to Lessee of Lessor's election to do so within ten (10) days after the expiration of said twenty (20) day period, notwithstanding any term or provision in the grant of option to the contrary. 9.5 Abatement of Rent; Lessee's Remedies.

Except for said abatement of rent, if any, Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for any damage suffered by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair or restoration. (b) If Lessor shall be obligated to repair or restore the Premises or the Building under the provisions of this paragraph 9 and shall not commence such repair or restoration within ninety (90) days after such occurrence, or if Lessor shall not complete the restoration and repair within six (6) months after such occurrence, Lessee may at Lessee's option cancel and terminate this Lease by giving Lessor written notice of Lessee's election to do so at any time prior to the commencement or completion, respectively, of such repair or restoration. In such event this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such notice. (c) Lessee agrees to cooperate with Lessor in connection with any such restoration and repair, including but not limited to the approval and/or execution of plans and specifications required. 9.6 Termination--Advance Payments. Upon termination of this Lease pursuant to this paragraph 9, an equitable adjustment shall be made concerning advance rent and any advance payments made by Lessee to Lessor. Lessor shall, in addition, return to Lessee as much of Lessee's security deposit as has not theretofore been applied by Lessor. 9.7 Waiver. Lessor and Lessee waive the provisions of any statute which relate to termination of leases when leased property is destroyed and agree that such event shall be governed by the terms of this Lease. 10. Real Property Taxes. 10.1 Payment of Taxes. Lessor shall pay the real property tax, as defined in paragraph 10.3 applicable to the Office Building Project subject to reimbursement by Lessee of Lessee's Share of such taxes in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 4.2, except as otherwise provided in paragraph 10.2. 10.2 Additional Improvements. Lessee shall not be responsible for paying any increase in real property tax specified in the tax assessor's records and work sheets as being caused by additional improvements placed upon the Office Building Project by other lessees or by Lessor for the exclusive enjoyment of any other lessee. Lessee shall, however, pay to Lessor at the time that Operating Expenses are payable under paragraph 4.2(c) the entirety of any increase in real property tax if assessed solely by reason of additional improvements placed upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's request. 10.3 Definition of "Real Property Tax." As used herein, the term "real property tax" shall include any form of real estate tax or assessment, general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, and any license fee, commercial rental tax, improvement bond or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income to estate taxes) imposed on the Office Building Project or any portion thereof by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax, including any city, county, state or federal government, or any school, agricultural, sanitary, fire, street, drainage or other improvement district thereof, as against any legal or equitable interest of Lessor in the Office Building Project or in any portion thereof, as against Lessor's right to rent or other income therefrom, and as against Lessor's business of leasing the Office Building Project. The term "real property tax" shall also include any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge (i) in substitution of, partially or totally, any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge hereinabove included within the definition of "real property tax," or (ii) the nature of which was hereinbefore included within the definition of "real property tax," or (iii) which is imposed for a service or right not charged prior to June 1, 1978, or if previously charged, has been increased since June 1, 1978, or (iv) which is imposed as a result of a change in ownership, as defined by applicable local statutes for property tax purposes, of the Office Building Project or which is added to a tax or charge hereinbefore included within the definition of real property tax by reason of such change of ownership, or (v) which is imposed by reason of this transaction, any modifications or changes hereto, or any transfers hereof. 10.4 Joint Assessment. If the improvements or property, the taxes for which are to be paid separately by Lessee under paragraph 10.2 or 10.5 are not separately assessed, Lessee's porion of that tax shall be equitably determined by Lessor from the respective valuations assigned in the assessor's work sheets or such other information (which may include the cost of construction) as may be reasonably available. Lessor's reasonable determination thereof, in good faith, shall be conclusive. 10.5 Personal Property Taxes. (a) Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed against and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property of Lessee contained in the Premises or elsewhere. (b) If any of Lessee's said personal property shall be assessed with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the taxes attributable to Lessee within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee's property. 11. Utilities. 11.1 Services Provided by Lessor. Lessor shall provide heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and as reasonably required, reasonable amounts of electricity for normal lighting and office machines, water for reasonable and normal drinking and lavatory use. 11.2 Services Exclusive to Lessee. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone and other utilities and services specially or exclusively supplied and/or metered exclusively to the Premises or to Lessee, together with any taxes thereon. If any such services are not separately metered to the Premises, Lessee shall pay at Lessor's option, either Lessee's Share or a reasonable proportion to be determined by Lessor of all charges jointly metered with other premises in the Building. 11.3 Intentionally omitted 11.4 Excess Usage by Lessee. Lessee shall not make connection to the utilities except by or through existing outlets and shall not install or use machinery or equipment in or about the Premises that uses excess water, lighting or power or suffer or permit any act that causes extra burden upon the utilities or services, including but not limited to security services, over standard office usage for the Office Building Project. Lessor shall require Lessee to reimburse Lessor for any excess expenses or costs that may arise out of a breach of this subparagraph by Lessee. Lessor may, in its sole discretion, install at Lessee's expense supplemental equipment and/or separate metering applicable to Lessee's excess usage or loading. 11.5 Interruptions. There shall be no abatement of rent and Lessor shall not be liable in any respect whatsoever for the inadequacy, stoppage, interruption or discontinuance of any utility or service due to riot, strike, labor dispute, breakdown, accident, repair or other cause beyond Lessor's reasonable control or in cooperation with governmental request or directions. 12. Assignment and Subletting. 12.1 Lessor's Consent Required. Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet or otherwise transfer or encumber all or any part of Lessee's interest in the Lease and the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent, which Lessor shall not unreasonably withhold. Lessor shall respond to Lessee's request for consent hereunder in a timely manner and any attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, encumbrance or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease without the need for notice to Lessee under paragraph 13.1. "Transfer" within the meaning of this paragraph 12 shall include the transfer or transfers aggregating (a) if Lessee is a corporation, more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting stock of such corporation, or (b) if Lessee is a partnership, more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the profit and loss participation in such partnership. 12.2 Lessee Affiliate. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 12.1 hereof, Lessee may assign or sublet the Premises, or any portion thereof, without Lessor's consent, to any corporation which controls or controlled by or is under common control with Lessee, or to any corporation resulting from the merger or consolidation with Lessee, or to any person or entity which acquires all the assets of Lessee as a going concern of the business that is being conducted on the Premises, all of which are referred to as "Lessee Affiliate"; provided that before such assignment shall be effective, (a) said assignee shall assume, in full, the obligations of Lessee under this Lease and (b) Lessor shall be given written notice of such assignment and assumption. Any such assignment shall not, in any way, affect or limit the liability of Lessee under the terms of this Lease even if after such assignment or subletting the terms of this Lease are materially changed or altered without the consent of Lessee, the consent of whom shall not be necessary. 12.3 Terms and Conditions Applicable to Assignment and Subletting. (a) Regardless of Lessor's consent, no assignment or subletting shall release Lessee of Lessee's obligations hereunder or after the primary liability of Lessee to pay the rent and other sums due Lessor hereunder including Lessee's Share of Operating Expenses, and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. (b) Lessor may accept rent from any person other than Lessee pending approval or disapproval of such assignment. (c) Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such assignment or subletting, nor the acceptance of rent, shall constitute a waiver or estoppel of Lessor's right to exercise its remedies for the breach of any of the terms or conditions of this paragraph 12 of this Lease. (d) If Lessee's obligations under this Lease have been guaranteed by third parties, then an assignment or sublease, and Lessor's consent thereto, shall not be effective unless said guarantors give their written consent to such sublease and the terms thereof. (e) The consent by Lessor to any assignment or subletting shall not constitute a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting by Lessee or to any subsequent or successive assignment or subletting by the sublessee. However, Lessor may consent to subsequent sublettings and assignments of the sublease or any amendments or modifications thereto without notifying Lessee or anyone else liable on the Lease or sublease and without obtaining their consent and such action shall not relieve such persons from liability under this Lease or said sublease; provided, however, such persons shall not be responsible to the extent any such amendment or modification enlarges or increases the obligations of the Lessee or sublessee under this Lease or such sublease. (f) In the event of any default under this Lease, lessor may proceed directly against Lessee, any guarantors or any one else responsible for the performance of this Lease, including the sublessee, without first exhausting Lessor's remedies against any other person or entity responsible therefor to Lessor, or any security held by Lessor or Lessee. (g) Lessor's written consent to any assignment or subletting of the Premises by Lessee shall not constitute an acknowledgement that no default then exists under this Lease of the obligations to be performed by Lessee nor shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing default, except as may be otherwise stated by Lessor at the time. (h) The discovery of the fact that any financial statement relied upon by Lessor in giving its consent to an assignment or subletting was materially false shall, at Lessor's election, render Lessor's said consent null and void. 12.4 Additional Terms and Conditions Applicable to Subletting. Regardless of Lessor's consent, the following terms and conditions shall apply to any subletting by Lessee of all or any part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases under this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein: (a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of Lessee's interest in all rentals and income arising from any sublease heretofore or hereafter made by Lessee, and Lessor may collect such rent and income and apply same toward Lessee's obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that until a default shall occur in the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, Lessee may receive, collect and enjoy the rents accruing under such sublease. Lessor shall not, by reason of this or any other assignment of such sublease to Lessor nor by reason of the collection of the rents from a sublessee, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of Lessee to perform and comply with any of Lessee's obligations to such sublessee under such sublease. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such sublessee, upon receipt of a written notice from Lessor stating that a default exists in the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, to pay to Lessor the rents due and to become due under the sublease. Lessee agrees that such sublessee shall have the right to rely upon any such statement and request from Lessor, and that such sublessee shall pay such rents to Lessor without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether such default exists and notwithstanding any notice from or claim from Lessee to the contrary. Lessee shall have no right or claim against said sublessee or Lessor for any such rents so paid by said sublessee to Lessor. (b) No sublease entered into by Lessee shall be effective unless and until it has been approved in writing by Lessor. In entering into any sublease, Lessee shall use only such form of sublease as is satisfactory to Lessor, and once approved by Lessor, such sublease shall not be changed or modified without Lessor's prior written consent. Any sublessee shall, by reason of entering into a sublease under this Lease, be deemed, for the benefit of Lessor, to have assumed and agreed to conform and comply with each and every obligation herein to be performed by Lessee other than such obligations as are contrary to or inconsistent with provisions contained in a sublease to which Lessor has expressly consented in writing. (c) In the event Lessee shall default in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, Lessor, at its option and without any obligation to do so, may require any sublessee to atone to Lessor, in which event Lessor shall undertake the obligations of Lessee under such sublease from the time of the exercise of said option to the termination of such sublease; provided, however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or security deposit paid by such sublessee to Lessee or for any other prior defaults of Lessee under such sublease. (d) No sublessee shall further assign or sublet all or any part of the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. (e) With respect to any subletting to which Lessor has consented, Lessor agrees to deliver a copy of any notice of default by Lessee to the sublessee. Such sublessee shall have the right to cure a default of Lessee within three (3) days after service of said notice of default upon such sublessee, and the sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from and against Lessee for any such defaults cured by the sublessee. 12.5 Lessor's Expenses. In the event Lessee shall assign or sublet the Premises or request the consent of Lessor to any assignment or subletting or if Lessee shall request the consent of lessor for any act Lessee proposes to do then Lessee shall pay Lessor's reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including attorneys, architects, engineers or other consultants' fees. 12.6 Conditions to Consent. Lessor reserves the right to condition any approval to assign or sublet upon Lessor's determination that (a) the proposed assignee or sublessee shall conduct a business on the Premises of a quality substantially equal to that of Lessee and consistent with the general character of the other occupants of the Office Building Project and not in violation of any exclusives or rights then held by other tenants, and (b) the proposed assignee or sublessee be at least as financially responsible as Lessee was expected to be at the time of the execution of this Lease or of such assignment or subletting, whichever is greater. 13. Default; Remedies. 13.1 Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a material default of this Lease by Lessee: (a) The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Lessee. Vacation of the Premises shall include the failure to occupy the Premises for a continuous period of sixty (60) days or more, whether or not the rent is paid. (b) The breach by Lessee of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of paragraphs 7.3(a), (b) or (d) (alterations), 12.1 (assignment or subletting), 13.1(a) (vacation or abandonment), 13.1(e) (insolvency), 13.1(f) (false statement), 16(a) (estoppel certificate), 30(b) (subordination), 33 (auctions), or 41.1 (easements), all of which are hereby deemed to be material, non-curable defaults without the necessity of any notice by Lessor to Lessee thereof. (c) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of real or any other payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of three (3) days of written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee. In the event that Lessor serves Lessee with a Notice to Pay Rent or Quit pursuant to applicable Unlawful Detainer statutes such Notice to Pay Rent or Quit shall also constitute the notice required by this subparagraph. (d) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Lessee other than those referenced in subparagraphs (b) and (c) above, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessee's noncompliance is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee commenced such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion. To the extent permitted by law, such thirty (30) day notice shall constitute the sole and exclusive notice required to be given to Lessee under applicable Unlawful Detainer statutes. (e) (i) The making by Lessee of any general arrangement of general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) Lessee becoming a "debtor" as defined in 11 U.S.C. 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless in the case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days; (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days. In the event that any provision of this paragraph 13.1(e) is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect. (f) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement given to Lessor by Lessee, or its successor in interest or by any guarantor of Lessee's obligation hereunder was materially false. 13.2 Remedies. In the event of any material default or breach of this Lease by Lessee, Lessor may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such default. (a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease and the term hereof shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee's default including, but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, and any real estate commission actually paid; the worth at the time of award by the court having jurisdiction thereof the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same period that Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; that portion of the leasing commission paid by Lessor pursuant to paragraph 15 applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease. (b) Maintain Lessee's right to possession in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee shall have vacated or abandoned the Premises. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes due hereunder. (c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are located. Unpaid installments of rent and other unpaid monetary obligations of Lessee under the terms of this Lease shall bear interest from the date due at the maximum rate then allowable by law. 13.3 Default by Lessor. Lessor shall not be in default unless Lessor fails to perform obligations required of Lessor within a reasonable time, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to Lessor and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to Lessee in writing, specifying wherein Lessor has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Lessor shall not be in default if Lessor commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues the same to completion. 13.4 Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of Base Rent, Lessee's Share of Operating Expenses or other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Office Building Project. Accordingly, if any installment of Base Rent, Operating Expenses, or any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor's designee within ten (10) days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to 6% of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. 14. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion thereof or the Office Building Project are taken under the power of eminent domain, or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power (all of which are herein called "condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs; provided that if so much of the Premises or the Office Building Project are taken by such condemnation as would substantially and adversely affect the operation and profitability of Lessee's business conducted from the Premises, Lessee shall have the option, to be exercised only in writing within thirty (30) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within thirty (30) days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession), to terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the rent and Lessee's Share of Operating Expenses shall be reduced in the proportion that the floor area of the Premises taken bears to the total floor area of the Premises. Common Areas taken shall be excluded from the Common Areas usable by Lessee and no reduction of rent shall occur with respect thereto or by reason thereof. Lessor shall have the option in its sole discretion to terminate this Lease as of the taking of possession by the condemning authority, by giving written notice to Lessee of such election within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of a taking by condemnation of any part of the Premises or the Office Building Project. Any award for the taking of all or any part of the Premises or the Office Building Project under the power of eminent domain or any payment made under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any separate award for loss of or damage to Lessee's trade fixtures, removable personal property and unamortized tenant improvements that have been paid for by Lessee. For that purpose the cost of such improvements shall be amortized over the original term of this Lease excluding any options in the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such condemnation, Lessor shall to the extent of severance damages received by Lessor in connection with such condemnation, repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemnation except to the extent that Lessee has been reimbursed therefor by the condemning authority. Lessee shall pay any amount in excess of such severance damages required to complete such repair. 15. Broker's Fee. (a) The brokers involved in this transaction are SCHER-VOIT Commercial Brokerage Company, Inc. as "listing broker" and CB Commercial Brokerage Company as "cooperating broker," licensed real estate broker(s). A "cooperating broker" is defined as any broker other than the listing broker entitled to a share of any commission arising under this Lease. Upon execution of this Lease by both parties, Lessor shall pay to said brokers jointly, or in such separate shares as they may mutually designate in writing, a fee as set forth in a separate agreement between Lessor and said broker(s), or in the event there is no separate agreement between Lessor and said broker(s), the sum of $ Per Agreement for brokerage services rendered by said broker(s) to Lessor in this transaction. (b) Lessor further agrees that (i) if Lessee exercises any Option, as defined in paragraph 39.1 of this Lease, which is granted to Lessee under this Lease, or any subsequently granted option which is substantially similar to an Option granted to Lessee under this Lease, or (ii) if Lessee acquires any rights to the Premises or other premises described in this Lease which are substantially similar to what Lessee would have acquired had an Option herein granted to Lessee been exercised, or (iii) if Lessee remains in possession of the Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease after having failed to exercise an Option, or (iv) if said broker(s) are the procuring cause of any other lease or sale entered into between the parties pertaining to the Premises and/or any adjacent property in which Lessor has an interest, or (v) if the Base Rent is increased whether by agreement or operation of an escalation clause contained herein, then as to any of said transactions or rent increases, Lessor shall pay said broker(s) a fee in accordance with the schedule of said broker(s) in effect at the time of execution of this Lease. Said fee shall be paid at the time such increased rental is determined. (c) Lessor agrees to pay said fee not only on behalf of Lessor but also on behalf of any person, corporation, association, or other entity having an ownership interest in said real property or any part thereof, when such fee is due hereunder. Any transferee of Lessor's interest in this Lease, whether such transfer is by agreement or by operation of law, shall be deemed to have assumed Lessor's obligation under this paragraph 15. Each listing and cooperating broker shall be a third party beneficiary of the provisions of this paragraph 15 to the extent of their interest in any commission arising under this Lease and may enforce that right directly against Lessor; provided, however, that all brokers having a right to any part of such total commission shall be a necessary party to any suit with respect thereto. (d) Lessee and Lessor each represent and warrant to the other that neither has had any dealings with any person, firm, broker, or finder (other than the person(s), if any, whose names are set forth in paragraph 15(a) above), in connection with the negotiation of this Lease and/or the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby, and no other broker or other person, firm or entity is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in connection with said transaction and Lessee and Lessor do each hereby indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any costs, expenses, attorneys' fees or liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed by any such unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or actions of the indemnifying party. 16. Estoppel Certificate. (a) Each party (as "responding party") shall at any time upon not less than ten (10) days' prior written notice from the other party ("requesting party") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to the responding party's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of the requesting party, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Office Building Project or of the business of Lessee. (b) At the requesting party's option, the failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be a material default of this Lease by the party who is to respond, without any further notice to such party, or it shall be conclusive upon such party that (i) this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by the requesting party, (ii) there are no uncured defaults in the requesting party's performance, and (iii) if Lessor is the requesting party, not more than one month's rent has been paid in advance. (c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Office Building Project, or any part thereof, Lessee hereby agrees to deliver to any lender or purchaser designated by Lessor such financial statements of Lessee as may be reasonably required by such lender or purchaser. Such statements shall include the past three (3) years' financial statements of Lessee. All such financial statements shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth. 17. Lessor's Liability. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean only the owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title or a lessee's interest in a ground lease of the Office Building Project, and except as expressly provided in paragraph 15. In the event of any transfer of such title or interest, Lessor herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers then the grantor) shall be relieved from and after the date of such transfer of all liability as respects Lessor's obligations thereafter to be performed, provided that any funds in the hands of Lessor or the then grantor at the time of such transfer, in which Lessee has an interest, shall be delivered to the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be performed by Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Lessor's successors and assigns, only during their respective periods of ownership. 18. Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction shall in no way affect the validity of any other provision hereof. 19. Interest on Past-due Obligations. Except as expressly herein provided, any amount due to Lessor not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum rate then allowable by law or judgments from the date due. Payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease; provided, however, that interest shall not be payable on late charges incurred by Lessee nor on any amounts upon which late charges are paid by Lessee. 20. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the obligations to be performed under this Lease. 21. Additional Rent. All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the terms of this Lease, including but not limited to Lessee's Share of Operating Expense and any other expenses payable by Lessee hereunder shall be deemed to be rent. 22. Incorporation of Prior Agreements; Amendments. This Lease contains all agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein. No prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter shall be effective. This Lease may be modified in writing only, signed by the parties in interest at the time of the modification. Except as otherwise stated in this Lease, Lessee hereby acknowledges that neither the real estate broker listed in paragraph 15 hereof nor any cooperating broker on this transaction nor the Lessor any employee or agents of any of said persons has made any oral or written warranties or representations to Lessee relative to the condition or use by Lessee of the Premises or the Office Building Project and Lessee acknowledges that Lessee assumes all responsibility regarding the Occupational Safety Health Act, the legal use and adaptability of the Premises and the compliance thereof with all applicable laws and regulations in effect during the term of this Lease. 23. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and may be given by personal delivery or by certified or registered mail, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered or addressed to Lessee or to Lessor at the address noted below or adjacent to the signature of respective parties, as the case may be. Mailed notices shall be deemed given upon actual receipt at the address required, or forty-eight (48) hours following deposit in the mail, postage prepaid, whichever first occurs. Either party may by notice to the other specify a different address for notice purposes except that upon Lessee's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall constitute Lessee's address for notice purposes. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given to Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designate by notice to Lessee. 24. Waivers. No waiver by Lessor of any provision hereof shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Lessee of the same or any other provision. Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any act shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Lessee. The acceptance of rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent. 25. Recording. Either Lessor or Lessee shall, upon request of the other, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a "short form" memorandum of this Lease for recording purposes. 26. Holding Over. If Lessee, with Lessor's consent, remains in possession of the Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term hereof, such occupancy shall be a tenancy from month to month upon all the provisions of this Lease pertaining to the obligations of Lessee, except that the rent payable shall be two hundred percent (200%) of the rent payable immediately preceding the termination date of this Lease, and all Options, if any, granted under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed terminated and be of no further effect during said month to month tenancy. 27. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity. 28. Covenants and Conditions. Each provision of this Lease performable by Lessee shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition. 29. Binding Effect; Choice of Law. Subject to any provisions hereof restricting assignment or subletting by Lessee and subject to the provisions of paragraph 17, this Lease shall bind the parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State where the Office Building Project is located and any litigation concerning this Lease between the parties hereto shall be initiated in the county in which the Office Building Project is located. 30. Subordination. (a) This Lease, and any Option or right of first refusal granted hereby, at Lessor's option, shall be subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or any other hypothecation or security now or hereafter placed upon the Office Building Project and to any and all advances made on the security thereof and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. Notwithstanding such subordination, Lessee's right to quiet possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed if Lessee is not in default and so long as Lessee shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms. If any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect to have this Lease and any Options granted hereby prior to the lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall give written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease and such Options shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, whether this Lease or such Options are dated prior or subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease or the date of recording thereof. (b) Lessee agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an attornment, a subordination, or to make this Lease or any Option granted herein prior to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as the case may be. Lessee's failure to execute such documents within ten (10) days after written demand shall constitute a material default by Lessee hereunder without further notice to Lessee or, at Lessor's option, Lessor shall execute such documents on behalf of Lessee as Lessee's attorney-in-fact. Lessee does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact and in Lessee's name, place and stead, to execute such documents in accordance with this paragraph 30(b). 31. Attorneys' Fees. 31.1 If either party or the broker(s) named herein bring an action to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the prevailing party in any such action, trial or appeal thereon, shall be entitled to his reasonable attorneys' fees to be paid by the losing party as fixed by the court in the same or a separate suit, and whether or not such action is pursued to decision or judgment. The provisions of this paragraph shall inure to the benefit of the broker named herein who seeks to enforce a right hereunder. 31.2 The attorneys' fee award shall not be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all attorneys' fees reasonably incurred in good faith. 31.3 Lessor shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and all other costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of notices of default and consultations in connection therewith, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with such default. 32. Lessor's Access. 32.1 Lessor and Lessor's agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same, performing any services required of Lessor, showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or lessees, taking such safety measures, erecting such scaffolding or other necessary structures, making such alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Office Building Project as Lessor may reasonably deem necessary or desirable and the erecting, using and maintaining of utilities, services, pipes and conduits through the Premises and/or other premises as long as there is no material adverse effect to Lessee's use of the Premises. Lessor may at any time place on or about the Premises or the Building any ordinary "For Sale" signs and Lessor may at any time during the last 120 days of the term hereof place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Lease" signs. 32.2 All activities of Lessor pursuant to this paragraph shall be without abatement of rent, nor shall Lessor have any liability to Lessee for the same. 32.3 Lessor shall have the right to retain keys to the Premises and to unlock all doors in or upon the Premises other than to files, vaults and safes, and in the case of emergency to enter the Premises by any reasonably appropriate means, and any such entry shall not be deemed a forcible or unlawful entry or detainer of the Premises or an eviction. Lessee waives any charges for damages or injuries or interference with Lessee's property or business in connection therewith. 33. Auctions. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, either voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises or the Common Areas without first having obtained Lessor's prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to exercise any standard of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such consent. The holding of any auction on the Premises or Common Areas in violation of this paragraph shall constitute a material default of this Lease. 34. Signs. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Premises or the Office Building Project without Lessor's prior written consent. Under no circumstances shall Lessee place a sign on any roof of the Office Building Project. 35. Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a mutual cancellation thereof, or a termination by Lessor, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing subtenancies or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to Lessor of any or all of such subtenancies. 36. Consents. Except for paragraphs 33 (auctions) and 34 (signs) hereof, wherever in this Lease the consent of one party is required to an act of the other party such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 37. Guarantor. In the event that there is a guarantor of this Lease, said guarantor shall have the same obligations as Lessee under this Lease. 38. Quiet Possession. Upon Lessee paying the rent for the Premises and observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Lessee's party to be observed and performed hereunder. Lessee shall have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire term hereof subject to all of the provisions to this Lease. The individuals executing this Lease on behalf of Lessor represent and warrant to Lessee that they are fully authorized and legally capable of executing this Lease on behalf of Lessor and that such execution is binding upon all parties holding an ownership interest in the Office Building Project. 39. Options. 39.1 Definitions. As used in this paragraph the word "option" has the following meaning: (1) the right or option to extend the term of this Lease or to renew this Lease or to extend or renew any lease that Lessee has on other property of Lessor; (2) the option or right of first refusal to lease the Premises or the right of first offer to lease the Premises or the right of first refusal to lease other space within the Office Building Project or other property of Lessor or the right of first offer to lease other space within the Office Building Project or other property of Lessor; (3) the right or option to purchase the Premises or the Office Building Project, or the right of first refusal to purchase the Premises or the Office Building Project or the right of first offer to purchase the Premises or the Office Building Project, or the right or option to purchase other property of Lessor, or the right of first refusal to purchase other property of Lessor or the right of first offer to purchase other property of Lessor. 39.2 Options Personal. Each Option granted to Lessee in this Lease is personal to the original Lessee and may be exercised only by the original Lessee while occupying the Premises who does so without the intent of thereafter assigning this Lease or subletting the Premises or any portion thereof, and may not be exercised or be assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, by or to any person or entity other than Lessee; provided, however, that an Option may be exercised by or assigned to any Lessee Affiliate as defined in paragraph 12.2 of this Lease. The Options, if any, herein granted to Lessee are not assignable separate and apart from this Lease, nor may any Option be separated from this Lease in any manner, either by reservation or otherwise. 39.3 Multiple Options. In the event that Lessee has any multiple options to extend or renew this Lease a later option cannot be exercised unless the prior option to extend or renew this Lease has been so exercised. 39.4 Effect of Default on Options: (a) Lessee shall have no right to exercise an Option, notwithstanding any provision in the grant of Option to the contrary, (i) during the time commencing from the date Lessor gives to Lessee a notice of default pursuant to paragraph 13.1(c) or 13.1(d) and continuing until the noncompliance alleged in said notice of default is cured, or (ii) during the period of time commencing on the day after a monetary obligation to Lessor is due from Lessee and unpaid (without any necessity for notice thereof to Lessee) and continuing until the obligation is paid, or (iii) in the event that Lessor has given to Lessee three or more notices of default under paragraph 13.1(c) or paragraph 13.1(d), whether or not the defaults are cured, during the twelve (12) month period of time immediately prior to the time that Lessee attempts to exercise the subject Option, (iv) if Lessee has committed any non-curable breach, including without limitation those described in paragraph 13.1(b), or is otherwise in default of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease. (b) The period of time within which an Option may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Lessee's inability to exercise an Option because of the provisions of paragraph 39.4(a). (c) All rights of Lessee under the provisions of an Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Lessee's due and timely exercise of the Option. If, after such exercise and during the term of this Lease, (i) Lessee fails to pay to Lessor a monetary obligation of Lessee for a period of thirty (30) days after such obligation becomes due (without any necessity of Lessor to give notice thereof to Lessee), or (ii) Lessee fails to commence to cure a default specified in paragraph 13.1(d) within thirty (30) days after the date that Lessor gives notice to Lessee of such default and/or Lessee fails thereafter to diligently prosecute said cure to completion, (iii) Lessor gives to Lessee three or more notices of default under paragraph 13.1(c), or paragraph 13.1(d), whether or not the defaults are cured, or (iv) if Lessee has committed any non-curable breach, including without limitation those described in paragraph 13.1(b), or is otherwise in default of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. 40.

Lessee shall sign any of the aforementioned documents upon request of Lessor and failure to do so shall constitute a material default of this Lease by Lessee without the need for further notice to Lessee. 42.2 The obstruction of Lessee's view, air, or light by any structure erected in the vicinity of the Building, whether by Lessor or third parties, shall in no way affect this Lease or impose any liability upon Lessor. 42. Performance Under Protest.

If it shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part of said party to pay such sum or any part thereof, said party shall be entitled to recover such sum or so much thereof as it was not legally required to pay under the provisions of this Lease. 43. Authority. If Lessee is a corporation, trust, or general or limited partnership, Lessee and each individual executing this Lease on behalf of such entity, represent and warrant that such individual is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of said entity.

Conflict. Any conflict between the printed provisions, Exhibits or Addenda of this Lease and the typewritten or handwritten provisions, if any, shall be controlled by the typewritten or handwritten provisions. 45. No Offer. Preparation of this Lease by Lessor Lessor's agent and submission of same to Lessee shall not be deemed an offer to Lessee to lease. This Lease shall become binding upon Lessor and Lessee only when fully executed by both parties. 46. Lender Modification.

Parties. If more than one person or entity is named as either or Lessee herein, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the obligations of the Lessor or Lessee herein shall be the joint and several responsibility of all persons or entities named herein as such Lessor or Lessee, respectively. 48.

Rent: Additional Charges. 3.1 Tenant shall pay to Landlord during the Term the Basic Rent specified in the Basic Lease Information subject to adjustments as provided in Section 3.5 below, which sum shall be payable by Tenant in equal consecutive monthly installments on or before the first day of each month, in advance, at the address specified for Landlord in the Basic Lease Information or such other place as Landlord shall designate, without any prior demand therefore and without any deduction or setoff whatsoever. If the Term Commencement Date should occur on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, then the rent for such fractional month shall be prorated on a daily basis based upon a 30-day calendar month. 3.2 Tenant shall pay to Landlord all charges and other amounts whatsoever as provided in this Lease (herein called "Additional Charges") including, without limitation, any increase in the Basic Rent resulting from the provisions of Article 4. All such amounts and charges shall be payable to Landlord at the place where the Basic Rent is payable. Landlord shall have the same remedies for a default in the payment of Additional Charges as for a default in the payment of Basic Rent. 2 Initials CTC DRB 3.3 Any installment of Basic Rent or any other monies due under this Lease not paid within seven days of the date when due shall bear interest, to the extent enforceable by law, at the rate not exceeding the higher of (i) 5% per annum, or (ii) % per annum plus the rate prevailing on the 25th day of the month preceding the date of execution of this Lease established by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco on advances to member banks under Section 13 or 13(a) of the Federal Reserve Act as in effect as of that date from the date due and payable until the same shall have been fully paid, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. 3.4 Tenant hereby acknowledges that the late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Basic Rent or any other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent, or any other sum due from Tenant, shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designated agent within seven days after such amount shall be due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the interest provided above, a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such overdue amount. The parties agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of such late charge by Landlord shall in no way constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such overdue amount nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy of Landlord resulting from such late payment. 4. Additional Charges for Taxes and Operating Expenses. 4.1 For purposes of this Article 4, the following terms shall have the meanings hereinafter set forth: 4.1.1. "Computation Year" shall mean each 12 consecutive month period commencing January 1 of each year during the Term, provided that Landlord, upon notice to Tenant, may change the Computation Year from time to time to any other 12 consecutive month period and, in the event of any such change, Tenant's Share or excess Taxes (as hereinafter defined) shall be equitably adjusted for the Computation Years involved in any such change. 4.1.2. "Tenant's Share" shall mean the percentage figure so specified in the Basic Lease Information. Tenant's Share has been computed by dividing the square footage of the Premises by the total square footage of the Building and, in the event that either the square footage of the Premises or the total square footage of the Building is changed, Tenant's Share will be appropriately adjusted, and, as to the Computation Year in which such change occurs, for purposes of this Section 4, Tenant's Share shall be determined on the basis of the number of days during such Computation Year at each such percentage. 4.1.3. "Operating Expenses" for the Computation Year is defined as the sum of (i) all "Building Common Expenses" (defined below) incurred for that Computation Year plus (ii) that percentage of "Land Common Expenses" (defined below) for that Computation Year which is equal to the Building's Share, as set forth in the Basic Lease Information. 4.1.4. "Building Common Expenses" for the Computation Year is defined as all "Common Expenses" (defined below) incurred for that Computation Year which the Landlord reasonably determines to pertain exclusively to the Building. 4.1.5. "Land Common Expenses" for the Computation Year is defined as all Common Expenses incurred for that Computation Year except for Common Expenses which the Landlord reasonably determines pertain exclusively to a single Building located in the Park. 4.1.6. "Taxes" shall mean the Building's Share, as set forth in the Basic Lease Information, of all taxes, assessments and charges levied upon or with respect to the Park or any personal property of Landlord used in the operation thereof or Landlord's interest in the Park or such personal property. Taxes shall include, without limitation, all general real property taxes and general and special assessments, charges, fees or assessments for transit, housing, police, fire or other governmental services or purported benefits to the Park, service payments in lieu of taxes, and any tax, fee or excise on the act of entering into this Lease or any other lease of space in the Park, or on the use of occupancy of the Park or any part thereof, or on the rent payable under any lease or in connection with the business or renting space in the Park that are now or hereafter levied or assessed against Landlord by the United States of America, the State of California, or any political subdivision, public corporation, district or other political or public entity, and shall also include any other tax, fee or other excise, however described, that may be levied or assessed as a substitute for or as an addition to, as a whole or in part, any 3 Initials CTC DRB Taxes, whether or not now customary or in the contemplation of the parties on the date of this Lease. Taxes do not include franchise, transfer, inheritance or capital stock taxes or income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources unless, due to a change in the method of taxation, any of such taxes is levied or assessed against Landlord as a substitute for or as an addition to, as a whole or in part, any other tax that would otherwise constitute a tax. Taxes shall also include reasonable legal fees, costs, and disbursements incurred in connection with proceedings to contest, determine or reduce Taxes. 4.1.7. "Common Expenses" shall include all direct costs of the operation and maintenance of the Building, the Adjoining Buildings, the Park, Common Areas, and parking areas, including without limitation the following: costs of (1) utilities, (2) supplies, (3) insurance (including public liability, property damage and fire) and extended coverage insurance for the full replacement cost as required by Landlord or its lenders, (4) services of independent contractors, (5) compensation (including employment taxes and fringe benefits) of all persons who perform duties connected with the operation, maintenance, repair or overhaul of the Building, Adjoining Buildings, Park, Common Areas and parking areas, and equipment, improvements and facilities, including without limitation engineers, janitors, painters, floor waxers, window washers, security and parking personnel and gardeners, (6) management of the Building, Adjoining Buildings, Park, Common Area and parking areas, whether managed by Landlord or an independent contractor (including, without limitation, an amount equal to the fair market value of any on-site manager's office), (7) rental expenses for (or a reasonable depreciation allowance on) personal property used in the maintenance, operation or repair of the Building, Adjoining Buildings, Park, Common Areas and parking areas, (8) the maintenance and repairs described in Paragraph 7 hereof, and (9) any other costs or expenses incurred by Landlord under this Lease and not otherwise reimbursed by tenants of the Building, Adjoining Buildings, Park, Common Areas and parking areas. Common Expenses shall also include the costs of any capital improvements made to the Building, Adjoining Buildings, Park, Common Areas, and parking areas by Landlord that reduce other Common Expenses, or that are required under any governmental law or regulation, such costs to be amortized over such reasonable period as Landlord shall determine at an interest rate the greater of ten percent (10%) per annum or the interest rate paid by Landlord on funds borrowed for the purpose of constructing such capital improvements. Common Expenses shall not include depreciation on the Building or the Adjoining Buildings or equipment therein, interest, executive salaries, advertising or real estate broker's commissions. Common Expenses shall be adjusted to reflect a ninety-five percent (95%) occupancy of the Building and the Adjoining Buildings during any period in which the Building and the Adjoining Buildings are not on the average at least ninety-five percent (95%) occupied. Management fees included in "Common Expenses" are charged at a rate of 5.5% for net leases and 4.5% for gross leases, and these percentages shall be considered a cap for that share of the total that the Tenant shares. 4.2 Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Charges 1/12th of Tenant's Share of the Taxes for each Computation Year, on or before the first day of each month during such Computation Year, in advance, in an amount estimated by Landlord and billed by Landlord to Tenant; provided that Landlord shall have the right initially to determine monthly estimates and to revise such estimates from time to time. With reasonable promptness after Landlord has received the tax bills for any Computation Year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement (herein called "Landlord's Tax Statement") setting forth the amount of Taxes for such Computation Year and Tenant's Share of such Taxes. If the actual Taxes for such Computation Year exceed the estimated Taxes paid by Tenant for such Computation Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference between the amount paid by Tenant and the actual Taxes within 15 days after the receipt of Landlord's Tax Statement and, if the total amount paid by Tenant for any such Computation Year shall exceed the actual Taxes for such Computation Year, such excess shall be credited against the next installments of Taxes due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder. 4.3 Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Charges 1/12th of Tenant's share of the Operating Expenses for each Computation Year, on or before the first day of each month of such Computation Year, in advance, in an amount estimated by Landlord and billed by Landlord to Tenant; provided that Landlord shall have the right initially to determine monthly estimates and to revise such estimates from time to time. With reasonable promptness after the expiration of each Computation Year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement "herein called "Landlord's Expense Statement") setting forth in reasonable detail the Operating Expenses for such Computation Year and Tenant's Share of such Operating Expenses. If the actual Operating Expenses for such Computation Year exceed the estimated Operating Expenses paid by Tenant for such Computation Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference between the amount paid by Tenant and the actual Operating Expense within 15 days after the receipt of Landlord's Expense Statement and, if the total amount paid by Tenant for any such Computation Year shall exceed the actual Operating Expenses for such Computation Year, such excess shall be credited against the next installments of the estimated Operating Expenses due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder. 4.4 If the Commencement Date shall occur on a date other than the first day of a Computation Year, Tenant's Share of Taxes and Operating Expenses for the Computation Year in which the Commencement Date occurs shall be in the proportion that the number of days from and including the Commencement Date to and including the last day of the Computation Year in which the Commencement Date occurs bears to 365. Similarly, if the Expiration Date shall occur on a date other than the last day of a Computation Year, Tenant's Share of Taxes and Operating Expenses for the Computation Year in which the Expiration Date occurs shall be in the proportion that the number of days from and including the first day of the Computation Year in which the Expiration Date occurs to and including the Expiration Date bears to 365. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may, pending the determination of the amount of Taxes and Operating Expenses for such partial Computation Year, furnish Tenant with statements of estimated Taxes, estimated Operating Expenses, and Tenant's Share of each thereof for such partial Computation Year. Within 15 days after receipt of such estimated statements Tenant shall remit to Landlord, as Additional Charges, the amount of Tenant's Share of such Taxes and Operating Expenses. After such Taxes and Operating Expenses have been finally determined and Landlord's Tax Statement and Landlord's Expense Statement have been furnished to Tenant pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 hereof, respectively, and if there shall have been an underpayment of Tenant's Share of Taxes or Operating Expenses, Tenant shall remit the amount of such underpayment to Landlord within 15 days after receipt of such statements and if there shall have been an overpayment, Landlord shall remit the amounts of any such overpayment to Tenant within 15 days after the issuance of such statements. 5. Construction of Building, Premises and Common Areas. 5.1 Prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord will construct the Building and the Premises and perform the work and make the installations in the Premises substantially as set forth in Exhibit "D" attached hereto (such work and installations being herein called "Landlord's Work"). Landlord's obligation to perform Landlord's Work shall not require Landlord to incur overtime costs and expenses and shall be subject to unavoidable delays due to acts of God, governmental restrictions, strikes, labor disturbances, shortages of material and supplies, and due to any other cause or event beyond Landlord's reasonable control. Landlord shall, when construction progress so permits, notify Tenant in advance of the approximate date on which Landlord's Work will be substantially completed in 3 Initials CTC DRB accordance with Exhibit "D" and will notify Tenant when Landlord's Work is in fact completed, which latter notice will constitute delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant. If any dispute shall arise as to whether the Premises are substantially completed and ready for Tenant's occupancy, a certificate furnished by Landlord's architect certifying the date of substantial completion shall be conclusive of the fact and date and shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. It is understood and agreed by Tenant that any minor changes from any plans or from said Exhibit "D" that may be necessary during construction of the Park, the Building, the Common Areas or the Premises shall not affect or change this Lease or invalidate same. It is agreed that by occupying the Premises as a tenant, Tenant formally accepts same and acknowledges that the Premises are in the condition called for hereunder. Failure of Landlord to deliver possession of the Premises within the time and in the condition provided for in this Lease will not give rise to any claims for damages by Tenant against Landlord or Landlord's contractor. 5.2 The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated and the expenditures therefore shall be at the sole discretion of Landlord, and the use of such areas and facilities shall be subject to such rules and regulations as Landlord shall make from time to time. Landlord shall not be responsible for the nonperformance of any such rules and regulations by any other tenant or occupant of the Park. 5.3 The purpose of attached Exhibit "B" is only to show the approximate location of the Premises in the Building, and such exhibit is not meant to constitute an agreement as to the construction of the Premises, the Rentable Area thereof, or the specific location of the Common Areas or the elements hereof or of the accessways to the Premises or the Park. Landlord hereby reserves the right, at any time and from time to time, to (i) make alterations in or additions to the Park and the Common Areas including, without limitation, changes in the location, size, shape, and number of driveways, entrances, parking spaces, parking areas, loading and unloading areas, landscaped areas and walkways, as such changes shall alter or affect the basic configuration and access to Tenant's building without Tenant's prior written approval, except for those changes that are required by Landlord to comply with any laws or ordinances. (ii) close temporatrily any of the Common Areas for maintenance purposes as long as reasonable access to the Premises remains available, (iii) designate property outside the Park to be part of the Common Areas, (iv) add additional buildings and improvements to the Park and Common Areas and (v) use the Common Areas while engaged in making alterations in or additions or repairs to the Park. 6. Conduct of Business by Tenant. 6.1 Tenant shall use and occupy the Premises during the Term of this Lease solely for the use specified in the Basic Lease Information and for no other use or uses without the prior written consent of Landlord. 6.2 Tenant shall not use or occupy or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises or any part thereof for any use other than the use specifically set forth in Section 6.1, or in any manner that, in Landlord's judgment, would adversely affect or interfere with (i) any services required to be furnished by Landlord to Tenant or to any other tenant or occupant of the Park, (ii) the proper and economical rendition of any such service of (iii) the use or enjoyment of any part of the Park by any other tenant or occupant. 6.3 The parking spaces to be provided to Tenant pursuant to Section 1.3 shall be used for parking only by vehicles no larger than full-sized passenger automobiles 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 or parked in areas other than those designated by Landlord for such activities. If tenant permits or allows any of the prohibited activities described in this Section 6.3, Landlord shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies that it may have under this Lease, to remove or tow away the vehicle involved without prior notice to Tenant, and the cost thereof shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Charges within five days after delivery to Tenant of bills therefore. 6.4 Tenant shall not store any property in the Common Areas without the prior written consent of Landlord. In the event that any unauthorized storage shall occur, Landlord shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies that Landlord may have under this Lease, to remove the property without prior notice to Tenant, and the cost thereof shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within five days after delivery to Tenant of bills therefore. 6.5 Tenant shall not do anything or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises that shall (i) invalidate or be in conflict with the provisions of any fire or other insurance policies covering the Building or the Park or any property located therein, (ii) result in a refusal by fire insurance companies of good standing to insure the Building or the Park or any such property in amounts reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, (iii) subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for injury to any person or property by reason of any business operation being conducted in or about the Premises or (iv) cause any increase in the fire insurance rates applicable to the Building or property located therein at the beginning of the Term or at any time thereafter.

Alterations and Tenant's Property. 7.1 Tenant shall make no structural alterations at any time nor any installations, additions, or improvements (collectively "Alterations") which exceed three thousand dollars ($3,000.00) in or to the premises without Landlords prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. All Alterations shall be done at Tenant's expense at such times and in such manner as Landlord may designate and only by such contractors or mechanics as are approved by Landlord, and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. 7.2 All appurtenances, fixtures, improvements, additions and other property attached to or installed in the Premises whether by the Landlord or by or on behalf of Tenant, and whether at Landlord's expense or Tenant's expense, or at the joint expense of the Landlord and Tenant, shall be and remain the property of Landlord. Any furnishings and personal property installed in the Premises that are removable without material damage to the Building or the Premises, whether the property of Tenant or leased by Tenant, are herein sometimes called "Tenant's Property." Any replacements of any property of Landlord, whether made at Tenant's expense or otherwise, shall be and remain the property of Landlord. 7.3 Any of Tenant's Property remaining on the Premises at the expiration of the Term shall be removed by Tenant at Tenant's cost and expense and Tenant shall, at its cost and expense, repair any damage to the premises in excess of Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00) or any damage to the Building caused by such removal. Any of Tenant's Property not removed from the Premises prior to the expiration of the Term shall, at Landlord's option, become the property of Landlord, or Landlord may remove such Tenant's Property and Tenant shall pay to Landlord Landlord's costs of removal within ten days after delivery of a bill therefore. 8. Landlord's Repairs. Except for damage or wear and tear resulting from the omission, negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant, or any of Tenant's employees, suppliers, shippers, 5 Initials CTC DRB customers or invitees, Landlord shall keep in good condition and repair the foundations, exterior walls, structural condition of interior bearing walls, and roof of the Premises, as well as the parking lots, walkways, driveways, landscaping, fences, signs, and utility installations of the Common Areas. Landlord shall not, however, be obligated to paint he exterior or interior surface of exterior walls, nor shall Landlord be required to maintain, repair or replace windows, doors or plate glass of the Premises. Landlord shall not be liable for, and except as provided in Article 16 hereof there shall be no abatement of Rent with respect to, any injury to or interference with Tenant's business arising from any repair, maintenance, alteration, or improvement in or to (i) any portion of the Park or the Building including the Premises, or (ii) the fixtures, appurtenances, and equipment therein. Tenant hereby waives and releases its right to make repairs at Landlord's expense under Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code or under any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect. 9. Tenant's Repairs. 9.1 Subject to the provisions of Article 8, Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense, shall make all repairs and replacements, structural and otherwise, as and when Landlord deems necessary to preserve in good working order and condition, the Premises and every part thereof including, without limitation, all plumbing, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems, electrical and lighting facilities and equipment with in the Premises, fixtures, interior walls, interior surfaces of exterior walls, ceilings, windows, doors, plate glass and skylights located within the Premises. At Landlord's option, either Tenant shall procure and maintain, at Tenant's expense, a ventilating and air conditioning system maintenance contract satisfactory to Landlord, or Landlord shall procure and maintain a ventilating and air conditioning system maintenance contract. If Landlord elects to procure and maintain the ventilating and air conditioning system maintenance contract, Tenant shall pay to Landlord from time to time, within 15 days after deliver of a statement therefore, the cost of such contract. 9.2 All repairs and replacements made by or on behalf of Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant shall be made and performed (i) at Tenant's cost and expense and at such time and in such manner as Landlord may designate, (ii) by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord, (iii) so that same shall be at least equal in quality, value and utility to the original work or installation and (iv) in accordance with the rules and regulations for the Park adopted by Landlord from time to time and in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations of governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Premises. 10. Abandonment. Tenant shall not vacate or abandon the Premises at any time during the term of this Lease, and if Tenant shall abandon, vacate or surrender the Premises or be dispossessed by process of law or otherwise, any personal property belonging to Tenant and left on the Premises shall be deemed to be abandoned, at the option of Landlord, except such property as may be mortgaged to or otherwise subject to a security interest in favor of Landlord. 11. Liens. Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations by or for Tenant or any person or entity claiming through or under Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within ten days following the imposition of any such lien, cause the same to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right but not the obligation to cause such lien to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith, shall be considered Additional Charges and shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord on demand. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises, the Building, and any other party having an interest therein, from mechanics' and materialmens' liens and Tenant shall give to Landlord at least five business days' prior notice of commencement of any construction on the Premises. 12. Assignment and Subletting. 12.1 Tenant shall not directly or indirectly, voluntarily or by operation of law, sell, assign, encumber, pledge, or otherwise transfer or hypothecate all or any part of the Premises or Tenant's leasehold estate hereunder (collectively, "Assignment"), or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant or sublet the Premises (collectively, "Sublease") or any portion thereof without Landlord's prior written consent in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 12.2 If Tenant desires at any time to enter into an Assignment of this Lease or a Sublease of the Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first give written notice to Landlord of its desire to do so, which notice shall contain (i) the name of the proposed assignee, subtenant or occupant, (ii) the nature of the proposed assignee's subtenant's or occupant's business to be carried on in the Premises, (iii) the terms and provisions of the proposed Assignment or Sublease, and (iv) such financial information as Landlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed assignee, subtenant or occupant. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable attorneys fees incurred in connection with the processing and documentation of any requested Assignment of this Lease or Sublease of the Premises. Any notice by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Section 12.2 of a proposed assignment or sublease shall be accompanied by a payment of $500 as a non-refundable fee to compensate Landlord for its time and the processing of Tenant's request for Landlord's consent. 12.3 At any time within 10 days after Landlord's receipt of any notice specified in Section 12.2, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, elect to (a) take an Assignment of Tenant's leasehold estate specified in Tenant's notice hereunder, or any portion thereof, (b) terminate this Lease as to the portion (including all) of the premises that is specified in Tenant's notice, with a proportionate abatement in the Rent, (c) consent to the Sublease of Assignment, or (d) disapprove the Sublease or Assignment. In the event Landlord elects to Sublease or take an Assignment from Tenant as described in Subsection (a) above, the rent payable by Landlord shall be in the lower of that set forth in Tenant's notice or the Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease at the time of the Assignment or Sublease). In the event Landlord elects any of the options set forth in Subsections (a) or (b) above, with respect to a portion of the Premises, (i) Tenant shall at all times provide reasonable and appropriate access to such portion of the Premises and use of any common facilities and (ii) Landlord shall have the right to use such portion of the Premises for any legal purpose in its sole discretion and the right to further assign or sublease the portion of the Premises subject to Landlord's election without the consent of Tenant. If Landlord consent to the Sublease or Assignment within said 60-day period, Tenant may thereafter, within 90 days after Landlord's consent but not later than the expiration of said 90 days, enter into such Assignment or Sublease of the Premises or portion thereof upon the terms and conditions set forth in the notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 12.2. 12.4 No consent by Landlord to any Assignment or Sublease by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any obligation to the performed by Tenant under this Lease whether arising before or after the Assignment or Sublease. The consent by Landlord to any Assignment or Sublease shall not relieve Tenant of the obligation to obtain Landlord's 6 Initials CTC DRB prior written consent to any other Assignment or Sublease. Any Assignment or Sublease that is not in compliance with Article 12 shall be void and, at the option of Landlord, shall constitute a material default by Tenant under this Lease. The acceptance of Rent or Additional Charges by Landlord from a proposed assignee or sublessee shall not constitute the consent by Landlord to such Assignment or Sublease. 12.5 Any sale or other transfer, including transfer by consolidation, merger or reorganization, of a majority of the voting stock of Tenant, if Tenant is a corporation, or any sale or other transfer of a majority of the partnership interest in Tenant, if Tenant is a partnership, shall be an Assignment for purposes of this Article 12. As used in this Section 12.5, the Term "Tenant" shall also mean any entity that has guaranteed Tenant's obligations under this Lease, and the prohibition hereof shall be applicable to any sales or transfers of the stock or partnership interest of said guarantor. 12.6 Each assignee, sublessee or other transferee other than Landlord shall assume, as provided in this Section 12.6, all obligations of Tenant under this Lease and shall be and remain liable jointly and severally with Tenant for the payment of Rent and Additional Charges and for the performance of all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant's part to be performed for the Term; provided, however, that the assignee, sublessee or other transferee shall be liable to Landlord for rent only in the amount set forth in the Assignment or Sublease. No Assignment shall be binding on Landlord unless the assignee or Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a counterpart of the Assignment and an instrument in recordable form that contains a covenant of assumption by the assignee satisfactory in substance and form to Landlord consistent with the requirements of this Section 12.6, but the failure or refusal of the assignee to execute such instrument of assumption shall not release or discharge the assignee from its liability as set forth above. 12.7 Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the foregoing provisions concerning assignment and subletting, including without limitation Landlord's right to withhold its consent to any proposed assignment or sublease (i) are critical to Landlord's determination to enter into this Lease, and (ii) have been included in this Lease as a result of specific negotiation between the Landlord and Tenant. 13. Compliance with Laws. Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense, shall comply with all laws, orders and regulations of federal, state, county, and municipal authorities and with all directions, pursuant to law, of all public officers, that shall impose any duty upon Landlord or Tenant with respect to the Premises or the use or occupancy thereof, except that Tenant shall not be required to make any structural alterations in order to comply unless such Alterations shall be necessitated or occasioned, as a whole or in part, by the act, omission, or negligence of Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant or any of their employees, supplies, shippers, customers, or invitees, or by the use of occupancy or manner of use or occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or any such person. Any work or installation made or performed by or on behalf of Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Article 13 shall be made in conformity with, and subject to the provisions of, Section 9.2. 14. Subordination and Attornment. 14.1 At Landlord's option, this Lease shall be subordinated to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust or any other hypothecation for security now or hereafter placed upon the Land, the Building, the Premises, or any part thereof, and to any and all advances made on the security thereof and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and extensions thereof. Notwithstanding such subordination, Tenant's right to quiet possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default and so long as Tenant shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms. In the event of (i) the termination of any ground lease upon the Land, or (ii) any foreclosure, transfer in lieu of foreclosure or exercise of power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust upon the Land, and on each such event Tenant shall, at the request of the party acquiring the interests of Landlord under this Lease following such event, attorn to such party and recognize such party as the Landlord under this Lease. If any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect to have this Lease prior to the lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, whether this Lease is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease or the date of recording thereof. 14.2 Tenant agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an attornment or a subordination, or to make this Lease prior to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as the case may be, in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.1 above.

Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary condemnation or other taking. 18. Utilities. 18.1 Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, and other utilities and services supplied for the Premises together with any taxes thereon.

Landlord makes no representation with respect to the adequacy or fitness of the air conditioning or ventilation equipment in the Building to maintain temperatures that may be required for, or because of, any equipment of Tenant other than normal fractional horsepower office equipment, and Landlord shall have no liability for loss or damage in connection therewith. 8 Initials CTC DRB 18.2 In the event any governmental entity promulgates or revises any statute, ordinance or building, fire or other code or imposes mandatory or voluntary controls or guidelines on Landlord or the Park or any part thereof, relating to the use of conservation of energy, water, gas, light or electricity, or the reduction of automobile or other emissions, or the provision of any other utility or service provided with respect to this Lease, or in the event Landlord is required or elects to make alterations to the Building or any other part of the Park in order to comply with such mandatory or voluntary controls or guidelines, Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require Tenant to comply with such mandatory or voluntary controls or guidlines or Landlord may, in its sole discretion, make such alterations to the Building or any other part of the Park related thereto. Such compliance and the making of such alterations shall in no event entitle Tenant to any damages, relieve Tenant of the obligation to pay the full Rent and Additional Charges reserved hereunder or constitute or be construed as a constructive or other eviction of Tenant. 19. Default. 19.1 The failure of Tenant to perform or honor any covenant, condition or representation made under this Lease shall constitute a default, hereunder by Tenant upon expiration of the appropriate grace period hereinafter provided. Tenant shall have a period of ten (10) days from the date of written notice from Landlord within which to cure any default in te payment of Rent or Additional Charges. Tenant shall have a period of ten days from the date of written notice from Landlord within which to cure any other default under this Lease; provided, however, that with respect to any default other than the payment of Rent or Additional Charges that cannot reasonably be cured within ten days, the default shall not e deemed to be uncured if Tenant commences to cure within ten days from Landlord's notice and continues to prosecute diligently the curing thereof to completion within a reasonable time. 19.2 Upon the occurrence of a default by Tenant that is not cured by Tenant within the grace periods specified in Section 19.1 hereof, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity. 19.2.1 The rights and remedies provided by California Civil Code Section 1951.2, including but not limited to, the right to terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises and to recover the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and Additional Charges for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceed the amount of rental loss for the same period that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, as computed pursuant to Subsection (b) of said Section 1951.2. 19.2.2 The rights and remedies provided by California Civil Code Section 1951.4 which allows Landlord to continue this Lease in effect and to enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease including the right to recover Rent and Additional Charges as they become due, for as long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession; provided, however, if Landlord elects to exercise its remedies described in this Subsection 19.2.2 and Landlord does not terminate this Lease, and if Tenant requests Landlord's consent to an Assignment of this Lease or a Sublease of the Premises at such time as Tenant is in default, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to such Assignment or Sublease. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon Landlord's initiative to protect its interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant's right to possession. 19.2.3 The right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant in accordance with applicable law. 19.2.4 The right and power, as attorney-in-fact for Tenant, to enter the Premises and remove therefrom all persons and property, to store such property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant, and to sell such property and apply the proceeds therefrom pursuant to applicable California law.

Upon each such subletting, (i) Tenant shall be immediately liable for payment to Landlord of, in addition to indebtedness other than Rent and Additional Charges due hereunder, the cost of such subletting and such alterations and repairs incurred by Landlord and the amount, if any, by which the Rent and Additional Charges for the period of such subletting (to the extent such period does not exceed the Term) exceed the amount to be paid as Rent and Additional Charges for the Premises for such period or (ii) at the option of the Landlord, rents received from such subletting shall be applied, first to payments of any costs of such subletting and of such alterations and repairs; second, to payment of Rent and Additional Charges due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment to Landlord within which to cure any default in the payment of Rent or Additional Charges. Tenant shall have a period of ten days from the date of written notice from Landlord within which to cure any other default under this Lease; provided, however, that with respect to any default other than the payment of Rent or Additional Charges that cannot reasonably be cured within ten days, the default shall not be deemed to be incurred if Tenant commences to cure within ten days from Landlord's notice and continues to prosecute diligently the curing thereof to completion within a reasonable time. 19.2.5 The right to have a receiver appointed for Tenant, upon application by Landlord, to take possession of the Premises and to apply any Rent collected from the Premises and to exercise all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord as attorney-in-fact for Tenant pursuant to Subsection 19.2.4. 20.

Upon the happening of any such event or at any time thereafter, this Lease shall terminate five days after written notice of termination from Landlord to Tenant. In no event shall this Lease be assigned or assignable by operation of law or by voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, and in no event shall this Lease or any rights or privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization of other debtor relief proceedings. 21. Landlord's Performance of Tenant's Obligations. If Tenant shall default in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, at any time thereafter and without notice, may remedy such default for Tenant's account and at Tenant's expense, without thereby waiving any other rights or remedies of Landlord with respect to such default. Upon demand therefore from Landlord, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost to Landlord of performing such obligations plus interest at the maximum rate allowed by law. 9 Initials CTC DRB 22. Indemnification. 22.1 With the sole exception of damage resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Landlord, its affiliates or agents, Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord against and save Landlord harmless from any and all loss, cost, liability, damage, and expense including, without limitation, penalties, fines, and reasonable attorney's fees, incurred in connection with or arising from any cause whatsoever in, on, or about the Premises including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) any default by Tenant in the observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease on Tenant's part to be observed or performed, (ii) the use or occupancy or manner of use or occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant, (iii) the condition of the Premises or any occurrence of happening on the Premises from any cause whatsoever, or (iv) any act, omission or negligence of Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant, or of the employees, suppliers, shippers, customers or invitees of Tenant or any such person, in, on, or about the Premises or Park, whether prior to, during, or after the expiration of the Term including, without limitation, any act, omission or negligence in the making or performing of any Alterations.

Tenant shall procure, at its cost and expense, and keep in effect during the Term, comprehensive general liability insurance including contractual liability with a minimum limit of liability of $3,000,000 per occurrence of bodily injury and property damage combined.

LANDLORD TENANT MIC FOUR POINTS, SUTTER BIOMEDICAL, INC. a California limited partnership /s/ D. Ron Beal /s/ Charles T. Cashion - -------------------------------- ----------------------------- By: By: President October 13, 1988 October 7, 1988 - -------------------------------- ----------------------------- Date Date EX-13.1 6 PORTIONS OF 1996 ANNUAL REPORT SPECIAL NOTES REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including projections of results of operations and financial condition, statements of future economic performance, and general or specific statements of future expectations and beliefs. The matters covered by such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to differ materially from those contemplated or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors which may cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, the following matters, which are discussed in more detail in the Company's Form 10-K for the 1996 fiscal year: (i) The Company's lack of experience with respect to newly acquired technologies and product lines, such as CPM products, may reduce the Company's ability to exploit the opportunities potentially offered by the acquisitions discussed in this report; (ii) Potential difficulties in integrating the operations of newly acquired companies may impact negatively on the Company's ability to realize benefits from the acquisitions. As noted herein the Company plans to close certain facilities and consolidate operations within certain projected time frames. These plans include the termination or relocation of certain personnel. No assurance can be given that the present timetable for consolidation or closures will not be delayed or that the termination and relocation of personnel will not result in additional, unanticipated costs. The consolidation and coordination of the Company's personnel and operations may prove to be more costly or difficult than anticipated, resulting in the diversion of management resources and adverse effects on the operating results of the Company. Moreover, in part as a potential result of personnel and policy changes, there can be no assurance that customers of the Company and any acquired entity will continue their historic buying patterns; (iii) The Company recently changed from selling its products primarily through independent dealers to selling primarily through a direct sales force. Although the Company believes that in the long run this will be an effective strategy, presently identifiable risks include: (a) the Company's management is inexperienced in dealing with such a large number of direct salespeople, and procedures that worked with a small direct sales force and motivated them may not be transferable to a larger force; (b) the Company recently hired a substantial number of new salespeople with little or no experience selling the Company's products; new salespeople typically face a learning curve and not all new salespeople will be successful; (c) for those salespeople who were hired from dealerships and thus had experience selling the Company's products, the fact that they are no longer selling products made by other manufacturers as part of their sales calls may reduce their access to doctors; and (d) territory expansion and realignment means a larger number of salespeople will be calling on physicians with whom they have not established a professional relationship. There can be no assurance that the Company's efforts to expand the internal sales force and to increase its productivity will produce positive effects on sales or profits; (iv) As discussed herein, the Company intends to pursue sales in international markets. The Company, however, has had little experience in such markets. Expanded efforts at pursuing new markets necessarily involves expenditures to develop such markets and there can be no assurance that the results of those efforts will be profitable; (v) There can be no assurance that the Company's estimates concerning what it has defined as the "Orthocare market" are accurate, or that changes in that market will not cause the nature and extent of that market to deviate materially from the Company's expectations; 11 SPECIAL NOTES REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS, CONTINUED (vi) To the extent that the Company presently enjoys perceived technological advantages over competitors, technological innovation by present or future competitors may erode the Company's position in the market. For example, prior to the acquisitions discussed herein, the Company's historic sales have been derived almost exclusively from the OrthoLogic 1000, and there is a possibility that competitors may develop new treatments or improve existing treatments that could be used in place of the OrthoLogic 1000. The same observation is true with respect to the Company's CPM and fixation products. To sustain long-term growth, the Company must develop and introduce new products and expand applications of existing products; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so or that the market will accept any such new products or applications; (vii) The Company operates in a highly regulated environment and cannot predict the actions of regulatory authorities. The action or non-action of regulatory authorities may impede the development and introduction of new products and new applications for existing products, and may have temporary or permanent effects on the Company's marketing of its existing or planned products. As noted herein, the Company has entered into an agreement with Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation and will collaborate in attempting to obtain approval by Japan's national health insurance for reimbursement for the use of the OrthoLogic 1000. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will actually receive such approval; (viii) There can be no assurance that the influence of managed care will continue to grow either in the United States or abroad, or that any such growth will result in greater acceptance or sales of the Company's products. In particular, there can be no assurance that existing or future decision makers and third party payors within the medical community will be receptive to the use of the Company's products or replace or supplement existing or future treatments. Moreover, the transition to managed care and the increasing consolidation underway in the managed care industry may concentrate economic power among buyers of the Company's products, which concentration could foreseeably adversely affect the price third party payors are willing to pay, and thus adversely affect the Company's margins; and (ix) Although the Company believes that existing litigation initiated against the Company is without merit and the Company intends to defend such litigation vigorously, an adverse outcome of such litigation could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. 12 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General OrthoLogic was founded in July 1987, and the Company was engaged primarily in the commercialization of the Company's proprietary BioLogic technology in order to develop products that stimulate the healing of bone fractures and spinal fusions. On August 30, 1996 OrthoLogic acquired Sutter Corporation ("Sutter") for $24.5 million in cash. Sutter develops, manufactures, and markets orthopaedic rehabilitation products (primarily continuous passive motion ("CPM") devices) and services. As discussed in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements the Company's completed two additional CPM related acquisitions in March 1997. Management is in the process of preparing a formal restructuring plan related to consolidating and integrating all of its CPM related facilities, operations and personnel. The Company plans to reduce the number of facilities from six to two during the second and third quarter of 1997. All CPM device manufacturing will be in Canada and the ancillary servicing and administrative functions will be consolidated into a Phoenix, Arizona location. Once the restructuring plan is completed and costs related to these activities can be estimated, they will be reflected as additional acquisition costs in the allocation of purchase price. Fracture Healing In March 1994, the Company received approval of its Premarket Approval Application ("PMA") from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") and commenced marketing its OrthoLogic 1000 Bone Growth Stimulator for the treatment of nonunion fractures. In 1993, the Company commenced clinical trials for the SpinaLogic 1000, an application of the BioLogic technology as an adjunct to spinal fusion surgery. Also during 1993, the Company commenced sales of its first commercial product, the OrthoFrame External Fixator. Additionally, in cooperation with the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, the Company developed the OrthoFrame/Mayo Wrist Fixator and commenced sales of this product during the first quarter of 1994. The Orthopaedic Department of the Mayo Clinic will also provide ongoing clinical input on future product design enhancements. Prior to the second quarter of 1996 the Company marketed its products primarily through a network of independent orthopaedic specialty dealers. During the second quarter of 1996 the Company commenced conversion of the primary marketing channel to a direct sales force. The Company paid approximately $10.8 million to former independent dealers for the return of territory rights, covenants-not-to-compete, and the right to hire former independent dealer sales representatives as Company employees. At December 31, 1996 the fracture healing direct sales force had 82 sales representatives and 2 remaining independent dealers. The Company's OrthoLogic 1000 is sold to patients upon receipt of a written prescription. The Company submits a bill to the patient's insurance carrier (third party payor) for reimbursement. All bills for the OrthoLogic 1000 are submitted to third party payors at the product's list price. The Company's OrthoFrame products are used in conjunction with surgical procedures and are sold to hospitals. The Company recognizes revenue at the time of product shipment. OrthoFrame products are shipped based upon receipt of purchase orders from hospitals, which are billed at the time of shipment. Each OrthoLogic 1000 is shipped based upon receipt of a physician's prescription. Therefore, the Company operates with no backlog. Orthopaedic Rehabilitation The primary product in orthopaedic rehabilitation is the direct rental of continuous passive motion devices to patients in the home, hospital, and outpatient surgical facilities. In addition to CPM rentals the Company also markets bracing and cryotherapy products. The Company maintains a fleet of CPM's which are rented to patients upon receipt of a written prescription. The Company recognizes CPM revenue daily during the period of prescribed usage. A bill is sent to the patient's insurance carrier (third party payor) for reimbursement. At December 31, 1996 the orthopaedic rehabilitation direct sales force had 87 sales representatives. Other OrthoLogic reported net income of $2.5 million during 1996, however, the Company, as of December 31, 1996, had a deficit of $16.9 million. At December 31, 1996, the Company had incurred approximately $12.0 million in net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. The Company's ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to annual limitations in future periods pursuant to the "change in ownership rules" under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Future operating results will depend on numerous factors including, but not limited to demand for the Company's products, the timing, cost and acceptance of product introductions and enhancements made by the Company or others, levels of third party payment, alternative treatments which currently exist or may be introduced in the future, practice patterns, competitive conditions in the industry, general economic conditions and other factors influencing the orthopaedic market in the United States or other countries in which the Company operates in or expands into. In addition, efforts to reform the health care system in the United States and contain health care expenditures could adversely affect the Company's revenues and results of operations. Furthermore, the Company's medical devices are subject to regulation by the FDA. The FDA has the power to affect the Company's sales and marketing of its devices. The Company cannot determine the effect such trends will have on its operations, if any. Results of Operations Years Ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996. Revenues. OrthoLogic's revenue increased 196% from $5.0 million in 1994 to $14.7 million in 1995. The increase in revenue was due primarily to increases in OrthoLogic 1000 sales which received FDA approval in March 1994. OrthoLogic's revenue increased from $14.7 million in 1995 to $41.9 million in 1996, an increase of 185%. The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to higher sales levels of the OrthoLogic 1000 and revenues from Sutter for four months. However, sales of the OrthoLogic 1000 decreased in the second half of 1996, compared to the first half of 1996, primarily due to low productivity of the Company's sales people associated with transition to a direct sales force. 13 Gross Profit. Gross profit increased from $3.6 million in 1994 to $11.6 million in 1995, an increase of 219%. Gross profit increased 189% from $11.6 million in 1995 to $33.6 million in 1996. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased from 73.5% in 1994 to 79.1% in 1995 and to 81.6% in 1996. The gross profit percentage has improved over time primarily as a result of the absorption of fixed manufacturing costs over a higher volume of manufactured product. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG&A"). SG&A expenses increased 101% from $5.6 million in 1994 to $11.3 million in 1995 and 182% to $31.9 million in 1996. The increase from 1994 to 1995 was attributable to higher personnel costs and other costs which relate directly to higher sales levels of the OrthoLogic 1000, such as commissions to sales agents, allowance for bad debts and royalties. Personnel costs also increased due to a higher number of personnel in several areas, including direct sales representatives, regional sales managers, product managers, customer service, third party payor, billing and collections and reimbursement specialists. The increase from 1995 to 1996 is due in part to the variable costs (commissions, bad debts, and royalties) associated with the increased revenue. The fixed component of SG&A also increased due to additional personnel at all levels for senior management, human resources, marketing, accounting and management information systems, and other infrastructure required to support the growing revenue volume, sales representatives added as a result of the transition to a direct sales force and incremental SG&A expenses from Sutter for four months. In addition, legal costs incurred defending the Company against lawsuits and amortization of intangibles arising from the acquisition of Sutter and costs from the conversion to a direct sales force combined to increase SG&A by $1.3 million. SG&A costs are expected to increase in 1997 due to a full year of the current personnel, Sutter SG&A and the asset acquisitions, discussed in Note 15, of Toronto Medical Corp. and Danninger Medical Technology, Inc.; however, the future levels of SG&A are dependent upon many factors, including commissions, royalties, bad debt and personnel levels. Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses for 1994 were $2.8 million. The expenses were attributable to research efforts and developmental activities for the OrthoFrame, the OrthoLogic 1000 and the OrthoFrame/Mayo Wrist Fixator. Research and development expenses decreased 23.5% from $2.8 million in 1994 to $2.1 million in 1995 and increased to $2.2 million in 1996. During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company experienced nonrecurring development costs associated with the OrthoLogic 1000 and the OrthoFrame/Mayo Wrist Fixator, which were not incurred in 1995 and 1996. Other Income. Grant revenue increased 758.8% from $25,000 in 1994 to $215,000 in 1995 and decreased 14.9% to $183,000 in 1996. Grant revenue will fluctuate from year to year depending on the number and dollar level of grant awards. The total number of grants awarded in 1994, 1995 and 1996 were 0, 3, and 2, respectively. The grants are not awarded based on calendar years. Interest income increased 9.9% from $278,000 in 1994 to $305,000 in 1995 and increased 831% to $2,841,000 in 1996. The fluctuations were caused by different amounts of cash and short-term investments and varying interest rates. The Company completed additional public offerings in October 1995 and April 1996 which provided net proceeds of approximately $17.6 million and $74.0 million, respectively. Net Income. Net income during 1996 is comprised of an operating loss of $485,000 which is offset by other income of $3.0 million, consisting primarily of interest income of $2.8 million. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company has financed its operations through the public and private sales of equity securities and product sales. From inception through December 31, 1996, the Company has raised $118.8 million in net proceeds from equity financings. At December 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $13.5 million and short-term investments of $35.3 million. Working capital increased 218.8% from $23.5 million at December 31, 1995 to $75.0 million at December 31, 1996. This increase is primarily the result of the Company's public offering which provided net proceeds of approximately $74.0 million. Net cash used by operations decreased 14.8% from $5.6 million in 1994 to $4.8 million in 1995. The decrease is attributable to the decrease in net loss from $4.5 million in 1994 to $1.4 million in 1995 and was partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and inventory. Net cash used by operations increased 44.6% from $4.8 million in 1995 to $6.9 million in 1996. This increase was due primarily to increases in accounts receivable and inventory of $4.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively, offset by increases in net income and depreciation and amortization of $3.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The Company anticipates that the cash generated from product sales and rentals and current cash balances will be sufficient to meet the Company's capital requirements for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will not require additional financing in the future. If the Company were required to obtain additional financing in the future, there can be no assurance that such sources of capital will be available on terms favorable to the Company, if at all. Accounts receivable increased from $6.5 million at December 31, 1995 to $26.9 million at December 31, 1996. This increase is due primarily to the acquisition of Sutter, increased sales of fracture healing products and an increased collection cycle experienced during the Company's growth. As discussed in greater detail in Note 13 the Company has been named as a defendant in certain lawsuits. Management believes that the allegations are without merit and will vigorously defend them. No costs related to the potential outcome of these actions have been accrued. The Company plans to relocate its corporate offices in the fourth quarter of 1997. No lease has been signed related to this move. 14 Selected Financial Data The selected financial data for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 1996 are derived from audited financial statements of the Company.

SEE NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 19 Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements For The Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization - OrthoLogic, Corp. (formerly IatroMed, Inc.) was incorporated on July 30, 1987 (date of inception) and commenced operations in September 1987. On August 30, 1996 OrthoLogic, Corp. acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Sutter Corporation ("Sutter") which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of OrthoLogic (collectively the "Company" or "OrthoLogic"). Description of business - OrthoLogic is engaged in two primary areas of orthopaedic healthcare primarily in the United States. The fracture healing area is engaged in developing, manufacturing, and marketing proprietary, technologically advanced orthopaedic devices designed to enhance the healing of diseased, damaged or degenerated musculo-skeletal tissue. The orthopaedic rehabilitation area is engaged in developing, manufacturing, and marketing orthopaedic rehabilitation products and services, primarily through the direct rental of continuous passive motion ("CPM") devices to patients in the home, hospitals, and outpatient surgical facilities. Principles of consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OrthoLogic, Corp. since its inception and Sutter since its acquisition on August 30, 1996. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The following briefly describes the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements of the Company: a. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. b. Furniture, rental fleet and equipment are stated at cost or, in the case of leased assets under capital leases, at the present value of future lease payments at inception of the lease. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the various assets, which range from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements and leased assets under capital leases are amortized over the life of the asset or the period of the respective lease using the straight-line method, whichever is the shortest. c. Grant revenue is recorded as costs are incurred in accordance with the terms of the grant contract. d. Research and development represent both costs incurred internally for research and development activities, as well as costs incurred by the Company to fund the activities of the various research groups (Note 4), with which the Company has contracted. All research and development costs are expensed when incurred. e. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and cash deposited with financial institutions, including money market accounts, and commercial paper purchased with an original maturity of three months or less. f. Income (loss) per common and common equivalent share - is computed on the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during each year and includes shares issuable upon exercise of stock options when dilutive. g. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 and 1994 financial statements to conform to the 1996 presentation. h. Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. 2. Acquisition On August 30, 1996, OrthoLogic, Corp. acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Sutter for $24.5 million in cash. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly the net assets and results of operations of Sutter have been included in these consolidated financial statements commencing August 30, 1996. The purchase resulted in goodwill of $7.9 million which is being amortized over 15 years. The following unaudited pro forma summary combines the consolidated results of operations of OrthoLogic, Corp. and Sutter as if the acquisition had occured on January 1 of that period after giving effect to certain adjustments including amortization of the purchase price in excess of net assets acquired, interest income, and income taxes. This pro forma summary is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occured if OrthoLogic, Corp. and Sutter had been combined during such periods. Moreover, the pro forma summary is not intended to be indicative of the results of operations to be attained in the future. Year Ended December 31, ----------------------- (in thousands, except per share data) ------------------------------------- 1996 1995 ---- ---- Net revenues $ 65,623 $ 47,062 Income (loss) from continuing operations $ 1,487 $ (2,476) Net income (loss) per common share $ 0.06 $ (0.16) The Company intends to close the Sutter corporate office and manufacturing facility as part of a restructuring (the "Restructuring Plan," see Note 15). Events which remain to be determined include 1) which employees will be terminated or relocated and 2) matters surrounding the closure of facilities and relocation of servicing operations. The amount of costs to be incurred related to these activities have not yet been estimated. Once the Restructuring Plan is approved, the related liabilities will be reflected as additional acquisition costs in the allocation of purchase price. 20 Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements, cont. For The Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 3. Dealer Intangibles During the second quarter of 1996 the Company initiated a plan to convert its primary marketing channel from an independent dealer network to a direct sales force. In connection with this conversion the Company paid approximately $10.8 million to certain former independent dealers for the return of territory rights, covenants-not-to-compete with varying terms, and the right to hire former independent dealer sales representatives as Company employees. This amount is being amortized on a straight line basis over seven years. 4. Research, Product Development and License Agreements The Company has entered into several research contracts, product development agreements and license agreements. These agreements relate to products being sold, products currently under development, and ongoing scientific research. Future commitments related to these agreements are summarized as follows: Year Ending December 31, Amount ------------------------ ------ 1997 $ 130,000 1998 45,333 1999 1,000 --------- Total $ 176,333 ========= In addition, the Company has committed to pay royalties on the sale of products or components of products developed under certain of these agreements. The royalty percentages vary but generally range from 7% to 0.5% of the sales amount for licensed products. The royalty percentage under the different agreements decreases when either a certain sales dollar amount is reached or royalty amount is paid. Royalty expense under these agreements totaled $621,597, $414,408 and $180,570 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 5. Distributor and Sales Agency Agreements Prior to the second quarter of 1996 the Company marketed its products primarily through a network of independent orthopaedic speciality dealers. During the second quarter of 1996 the Company commenced conversion of the primary marketing channel to a direct sales force. This conversion was substantially complete by year end. In August 1996 the Company acquired Sutter whose primary marketing channel was a direct sales force. The Company's primary products, the OrthoLogic 1000 and CPM devices, are prescribed by clinicians for specific patient usage. The Company sells or rents product upon receipt of a prescription, signed by a clinician. The Company bills the patient's insurance carrier or the patient, if they are not insured. During 1995, one distributor obtained prescriptions for which product was shipped and which represents approximately 12% of net sales. This same distributor purchased other products from the Company which account for less than 1% of net sales for this same period. For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1994, no distributor accounted for over 10% of revenue. 6. Investments The Company has implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." At December 31, 1996, marketable securities were comprised of corporate debt securities and direct obligations of the United States Government and its agencies and were managed as part of the Company's short-term cash management program and were classified as held-to-maturity securities. All such securities were purchased with original maturities less than one year. Such classification requires these securities to be reported at amortized cost. A summary of the fair market value and unrealized gains and losses on these securities is as follows: December 31, 1996 1995 ---- ---- Amortized Cost $ 35,306,989 $ 9,149,360 Gross unrealized gain 48,912 45,887 Gross unrealized loss (13,117) -- ------------ ------------ Fair Value $ 35,342,784 $ 9,195,247 ============ ============ 7.

Income Taxes At December 31, 1996, the Company has incurred approximately $12.0 million in net operating loss carryforwards expiring from 2002 through 2011 for federal income tax purposes. The Company issued Series B Convertible Preferred Stock during 1988, Series C Convertible Preferred Stock during 1990 and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock during 1992, completed its IPO in 1993 and completed a private placement and public offerings of its common stock in 1995 and 1996. Stock issuances, as discussed in Note 10, may cause a change in ownership under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 382; accordingly, the utilization of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to annual limitations. Management has evaluated the available evidence about future taxable income and other possible sources of realization of deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance reduces deferred tax assets to an amount that management believes will more likely than not be realized. The components of deferred income taxes at December 31 are as follows (in '000s): 1996 1995 ---- ---- Allowance for bad debts $ 3,456 $ 592 Other accruals and reserves 675 25 Valuation Allowance (1,730) (617) ------- ------- Total current 2,401 0 ------- ------- Net operating loss carryforwards 4,746 7,187 Difference in basis of fixed assets (606) -- Nondeductible accruals and reserves 441 197 Amortization of intangibles and other 630 (2) Valuation Allowance (5,211) (7,382) ------- ------- Total noncurrent 0 0 ------- ------- Total deferred income taxes $ 2,401 $ 0 ======= ======= A reconciliation of the difference between the provision for income taxes and income taxes at the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate is as follows for the year ended December 31, 1996: Income taxes at statutory rate $ 863 Net operating losses used (930) State income taxes 200 Other (133) ----- Net provision $ 0 ===== Prior to 1996, the Company had experienced net operating losses for all years; therefore, there was no provision for 1995 or 1994. 22 Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements, cont. For The Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 10. Stockholders' Equity In October 1987, the stockholders adopted a Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan") which was amended in January 1996 to increase the number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Option Plan to 4,000,000 shares. Two types of options may be granted under the Option Plan: options intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 442 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code") and other options not specifically authorized or qualified for favorable income tax treatment by the Code. All eligible employees may receive more than one type of option. Any director or consultant who is not an employee of the Company shall be eligible to receive only nonqualified stock options under the Option Plan. In October 1989, the Board of Directors (the "Board") approved that in the event of a takeover or merger of the Company in which 100% of the equity of the Company is purchased, 75% of all unvested employee options will vest, with the balance vesting equally over the ensuing 12 months, or according to the individual's vesting schedule, whichever is earlier. If an employee or holder of stock options loses their position as a result of or subsequent to the acquisition, 100% of that individual's stock options will vest immediately upon employment termination. Options are granted at prices which are equal to the current fair value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant. During January 1993, an independent valuation of the fair value of the Company's common stock was performed for 1991 and 1992. This valuation indicated that certain options granted during 1991 and all options granted during 1992 were at prices less than the fair value at the date of grant. The Company recorded the difference between the fair value and the exercise price as compensation expense as the options vested. During 1996, 1995 and 1994 approximately $12,000, $13,000 and $191,000 respectively, was recorded as compensation expense. There is no remaining future compensation expense. The vesting period is generally related to length of employment and all vested options lapse upon termination of employment if not exercised within a 90-day period (or one year after such termination because of death or disability or the date of termination if terminated for cause). A summary of the status of the Option Plan as of December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, and changes during the years then ended is presented below:
1996 1995 1994 Weighted-Average Weighted-Average Weighted-Average Fixed Options Shares Exercise Price Shares Exercise Price Shares Exercise Price - ------------- ------ -------------- ------ -------------- ------ -------------- Outstanding at beginning of year 2,356,034 $ 3.33 1,654,034 $ 1.61 1,367,300 $ 0.91 Granted 914,400 13.15 1,112,600 5.04 600,300 2.68 Exercised (700,790) 1.60 (282,600) 0.30 (283,800) 0.22 Forfeited (60,000) 6.23 (128,000) 2.42 (29,766) 2.34 ---------- ---------- --------- Outstanding at end of year 2,509,644 $ 7.31 2,356,034 $ 3.33 1,654,034 $ 1.61 ========== ========== ========= Options exercisable at year-end 613,737 774,220 656,486 ========== ========== ========= Weighted-average fair value of options granted during the year $ 7.50 $ 2.87 ========== ==========

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its Option Plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost, other than discussed above, has been recognized for its Option Plan. Had compensation cost been computed based on the fair value of awards on the date of grant, utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, consistent with the method stipulated by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, the Company's net earnings and earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below, followed by the model assumptions used:
December 31, 1996 1995 ---- ---- Net income (loss): As reported (in '000s) $ 2,538 $ (1,352) Pro forma (in '000s) $ 679 $ (1,687) Net income (loss) per weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding: As reported $ 0.11 $ (0.09) Pro forma $ 0.03 $ (0.11) Black-Scholes model assumptions: Risk-free interest rate 6.00% 6.00% Expected volatility .6 .6 Expected term 5 years 5 years Dividend yield 0% 0%
24 Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements, cont. For The Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 At December 31, 1996, options for 613,737 shares of common stock were exercisable. The options generally expire five or ten years from the date of grant. At the closing of the Company's IPO on January 28, 1993 all convertible preferred stock, totaling 4,173,002 shares, was converted into an equal amount of common stock. At December 31, 1996, there were 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized and none were issued and outstanding. The former preferred stockholders and certain of their transferees now holding their shares of common stock may require the Company, commencing April 28, 1993 and ending on July 6, 2003, on not more than two occasions, to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to at least 30% of their shares of common stock. Stockholders holding 60% of such registerable shares must make the registration demand. The Company must file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 90 days of the receipt of the request. The former holders of all of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock may require the Company, on one or more occasions, to file a registration statement under the Securities Act for all or any part of their shares of common stock. The Company must file a registration statement within 90 days of the receipt of the request. Further, holders of common stock with registration rights may require the Company to register all or a portion of their shares of common stock on Form S-3, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The Company is obligated to pay the offering expenses of each such offering, except for the selling stockholders' pro rata portion of underwriting discounts and commissions. During 1994, the former holders of certain shares of Series D Preferred Stock and certain warrant holders required the Company to register their shares of common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of the common stock in the public market pursuant to the above registration rights could adversely affect prevailing market prices. In June 1992, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $1.75 per share, to the placement agent in connection with the sale of the Series D Preferred Stock. The warrant was exercised in August 1994. In connection with the Company's IPO in January 1993, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $4.20 per share, to the underwriter. In 1995 as a result of the private placement, the exercise price was reduced to $4.055. The warrant was exercised using a net exercise provision during 1995 and 1996. In 1993, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 20,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $1.813 per share, to another company for an ownership interest of that company (see Note 11).

In 1996, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $2.41 per share, to a consultant as partial payment for services. This warrant expires in March 2001. On October 31, 1995 and November 6, 1995 the Company issued a total of 4,024,398 shares of common stock upon the closings of a public offering of its common stock.

In addition, the Board of Directors approved a 2 for 1 stock split in the form of a 100 percent common share dividend which was paid on June 25, 1996, to stockholders of record as of June 4, 1996.

Related Parties The Company has entered into two-year employment agreements with the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), President and the Executive Vice President of Research and Development of the Company. The employment agreements provide that salaries and bonuses shall be determined annually by the Board of Directors. If the Company terminates the employee's employment without cause, the employee is entitled to a severance payment equal to twelve months' salary. In addition, three other officers of the Company have entered into severance agreements wherein payments equal to twelve months' salary are required upon termination of the employee without cause. During June 1992, the Company loaned $125,000 to its CEO. The note plus accrued interest was paid during 1996. 25 Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements, cont. For The Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 During November 1996, the Company loaned $200,000 to its former President. The loan is unsecured and bears interest at 8%. The note is due upon sale of the former President's Phoenix home. The Company may demand payment after December 31, 1997. The Company has a 5% ownership interest in a company which is providing research services to the Company per an agreement referred to in Note 4. The Company paid approximately $32,000 and granted a warrant for 10,000 shares of the Company's stock (as described in Note 10) for the ownership interest. This investment is included in deposits and other assets at December 31, 1996. The Company has a consulting agreement with a member of the Board of Directors. The agreement has a renewable one year term and the fee is negotiated each year. During each of 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company paid the member $25,000 for services rendered under the agreement. The Company's CEO has a minority interest in royalties paid by the Company under a product license (see Note 4). The CEO has transferred to the Company his rights to any royalties under this agreement as long as he is a director or officer of the Company. The Company has received no royalties to date under this agreement. 12. Commitments The Company is obligated under non-cancelable operating lease agreements for its office, manufacturing and research facilities. Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 was $482,000, $131,000 and $124,000, respectively. The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments for the years ending December 31 under non-cancelable lease agreements with original terms in excess of one year: Leases ------------------------------------ Capital Operating Total ------- --------- ----- 1997 $ 68,672 $1,083,243 $1,151,915 1998 68,672 580,765 649,437 1999 68,672 14,122 82,794 2000 47,264 5,301 52,565 Thereafter -- -- -- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total future minimum lease payments 253,280 $1,683,431 $1,936,711 ========== ========== Less amount representing interest 39,568 ---------- Present value of minimum lease payments 213,712 Less current portion 51,207 ---------- Long-term portion $ 162,505 ========== 13. Litigation During 1996 certain lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona against the Company and certain officers and directors alleging violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and SEC Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. Plaintiffs in these actions allege that correspondence received by the Company from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") pertaining principally to the promotion of the Company's OrthoLogic 1000 Bone Growth Stimulator was material and undisclosed, leading to an artificially inflated stock price. Plaintiffs further allege that the Company's non-disclosure of the FDA correspondence and of the alleged practices referenced in that correspondence operated as a fraud against plaintiffs. Plaintiffs further allege that once the FDA letter became known, a material decline in the stock price of the Company occurred, causing damage to the plaintiffs. In addition, the Company has been served with a substantially similiar action filed in Arizona state court alleging state law causes of action grounded in the same set of facts. All plaintiffs seek class action status, unspecified compensatory damages, fees and costs. Plaintiffs also seek extraordinary, equitable and/or injunctive relief as permitted by law. Management believes that the allegations are without merit and will vigorously defend them. 26 Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements, cont. For The Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 In addition to the foregoing, a shareholder derivative complaint alleging among other things, breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the conduct alleged in the aforesaid federal and state court class actions have also been filed in Arizona state court. By agreement between the parties, that action has been stayed pending a decision on defendant's forthcoming motion to dismiss those actions. The costs associated with defending these allegations and the potential outcome cannot be determined at this time and accordingly, no estimate for such costs has been included in these financial statements. 14. 401(k) Plan The Company adopted a 401(k) plan (the "Plan") for its employees on July 1, 1993. The Company may make matching contributions to the Plan on behalf of all Plan participants, the amount of which is determined by the Board of Directors. The Company did not make any matching contributions to the Plan in 1996, 1995 or 1994. 15. Subsequent Events On February 25, 1997 the Company declared a dividend distribution of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right (the "Rights") for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock, payable March 12, 1997 to holders of record on that date. The Rights will expire on March 11, 2007. Each Right will entitle shareholders to buy 1/100 of a share of Series A Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $25.00. Initially, no separate Rights certificates will be distributed; the Rights will trade with the Company's common stock and will not be exercisable until the earlier of 10 business days following the acquisition of 15% or more of the Company's common stock by a person or group or 15 business days following the commencement of a tender offer for 20% or more of the Company's common stock. At the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Rights can be redeemed at any time prior to the 10th day following the date the Rights become exercisable. If the Rights are not redeemed by the Board, and the Company is acquired, holders of the Rights (other than an "acquiring person") will be entitled to purchase additional shares of common stock of either the Company or the acquiring corporation (whichever survives) at one-half the market price. On March 3, 1997 and March 12, 1997 the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Toronto Medical Corp. ("Toronto") and Danninger Medical Technology, Inc. ("DMTI") for approximately $4.0 million and $9.1 million in cash, respectively. Both acquisitions were accounted for as a purchase, however at the date of this report the purchase price allocation had not yet been determined and accordingly the amount of goodwill has not been computed. Toronto and DMTI develop, manufacture and market CPM devices on a national and international level. Management plans to restructure the operations related to these acquisitions during the second and third quarter of 1997 including, but not limited to, closing and/or relocating facilities and terminating or relocating certain employees. The Restructuring Plan will include the integration of these acquisitions. Once the estimated costs related to these activities are determined, they will be accrued and reflected as additional acquisition costs in the allocation of purchase price.
