other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate
in writing.

month prior to the commencement of the partial month.

6. RENTAL ADJUSTMENTS.

Operating Expenses with respect to the Project for such month.

(a) "TENANT'S PRO RATA SHARE" under this Lease shall
mean the percentage set forth in Section 2.1.4 (subject to adjustment pursuant
to Section 8.3), determined by dividing the Rentable Area of the Premises by the
total Rentable Area of the Project.

(b) Within sixty (60) days after the conclusion of
each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant in writing a statement (the
"ANNUAL OPERATING EXPENSE STATEMENT") showing in reasonable detail the actual
Operating Expenses and Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses for the
previous calendar year. Any additional sum due from Tenant to Landlord shall be
due and payable within thirty (30) days of Tenant's receipt of such statement.
If the amounts paid by Tenant pursuant to this Section 7.3 exceed Tenant's Pro
Rata Share of Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year, the difference
shall be credited by Landlord against the Rent next due and owing from Tenant;
provided that, if the Lease term has expired, Landlord shall accompany said
statement with payment for the amount of such difference. (c) Any amount due
under this Section 7.3 for any period which is less than a full month shall be
prorated for such fractional month.

(d) Notwithstanding this Section 7.3, Operating

Statement.

7.5 Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant's expense, upon
reasonable notice during reasonable business hours, to review that portion of
Landlord's books, records, invoices, and other data which are relevant to
preparation of the Annual Operating Expense Statement provided any request for
such review shall be furnished within one hundred eighty (180) days after


8

Tenant's receipt of such statement as to prior year's Operating Expenses. If the
amount of Operating Expenses relating to the Premises identified on such annual
statement is found to exceed the actual Operating Expenses of the Premises,
Landlord shall, within twenty (20) days after Tenant's request therefor, refund
to Tenant the amount of overpayment by Tenant. In addition, if such review
reveals that the Operating Expenses paid by Tenant in any year exceed one
hundred five percent (105%) of the actual Operating Expenses which should have
been paid by Tenant in such year, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the
reasonable cost of such review within 10 business days following Tenant's
written request for the cost of such review. In all other cases, Tenant shall
pay for the reasonable cost of the review.

7.6 Operating Expenses for the calendar year in which Tenant's
obligation to pay them commences and in the calendar year in which such
obligation ceases shall be prorated. Expenses such as taxes, assessments and
insurance premiums which are incurred for an extended time period shall be
prorated based upon time periods to which applicable so that the amounts
attributed to the Premises relate in a reasonable manner to the time period
wherein Tenant has an obligation to pay Operating Expenses.

8. RENTABLE AREA.
--------------

8.1 The Rentable Area of the Project is determined by making
separate calculations of the Rentable Area of each floor of the Building, and
totaling the Rentable Area of each floor within the Building. The Rentable Area
of a floor is calculated by measuring to the outside finished surface of each
permanent outer building wall where the wall intersects or joins the floor, or
where it would have intersected the floor except for recessed entryways, windows
and the like (also known as the "drip line", measured from where the outside
finished surface of the second floor wall intersects the roof). The full area
calculated as set forth above is included as Rentable Area of the Project
without deduction for (i) columns and projections, (ii) vertical penetrations
such as stairwells, elevator shafts, flues, pipe shafts, vertical ducts,
atriums, and the like, or their enclosing walls corridors, (iii) entrance ways,
lobbies, corridors, equipment rooms, and rest rooms, and the like, or their
enclosing walls, or (iv) any other unusable area of any nature.

8.2 The term "RENTABLE AREA" when applied to the Premises is
the area to be occupied exclusively by Tenant plus a pro rata allocation of
Rentable Area within the Project which is not then utilized or expected to be
utilized exclusively by Tenant or other tenants of the Project, including but
not limited to the portions of the Building devoted to columns, projections,
vertical penetrations, entrance ways, lobbies, corridors, equipment rooms, rest
rooms, lunch rooms, conference rooms, library, and fitness center. If the
Premises are separated from space occupied by another tenant, the Rentable Area
shall be measured to the center of any interior demising walls.

8.3 The Rentable Area as set forth in Section 2.1.1 is an
estimate of the area which constitutes the Rentable Area of the Premises, which,
at the request of either Landlord or Tenant made within ninety (90) days after
the Term Commencement Date, shall be adjusted in accordance with measurement and


9

written certification of the Project architect. If the Rentable Area as
determined hereunder is more or less than the Rentable Area set forth in Section
2.1.1, Basic Annual Rent, monthly installments of Basic Annual Rent, and
Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses shall be adjusted upward or
downward, as the case may be, based on the actual Rentable Area of the Premises.

9. SECURITY DEPOSIT.
-----------------

9.1 Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Tenant
shall deposit with Landlord cash in the amount set forth in Section 2.1.6, to be
held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of
the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by
Tenant during the term and any extension term hereof. If Tenant defaults with
respect to any provision of this Lease, including but not limited to any
provision relating to the payment of Rent, and subject to any notice
requirements and cure periods for Tenant's benefit set forth in Article 24,
Landlord may (but shall not be required to) draw from the security deposit the
amount required to cure the default, and to use, apply or retain the security
deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or to
compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by
reason of Tenant's default. The security deposit shall not be deemed to be held
by Landlord in trust, need not be segregated from other funds of Landlord, and
shall not bear interest. Landlord is hereby granted a security interest in the
security deposit pursuant to the provisions of the California Commercial Code,
which security interest shall be perfected by Landlord taking possession of the
security deposit.

9.2 In the event Landlord applies any portion of the security
deposit in accordance with the terms of this Lease, Tenant shall within ten (10)
days after another request therefor replenish the security deposit to the full
amount set forth above.

9.3 The security deposit shall be transferable by Landlord to
a successor Landlord and to Landlord's mortgage lender which is a beneficiary of
a deed of trust encumbering the Premises, provided such lender agrees to hold
the security deposit pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

9.4 In the event of bankruptcy or other debtor/creditor
proceedings against Tenant, the security deposit shall be deemed to be applied
first to the payment of Rent and other charges due Landlord for all periods
prior to the filing of such proceedings.

9.5 Landlord shall deliver the security deposit to any
purchaser of Landlord's interest in the Premises, and thereupon Landlord shall
be discharged from any further liability with respect thereto provided that such
purchaser has agreed to assume in writing the obligations of Landlord hereunder.
This provision shall also apply to any subsequent transfers.

9.6 The security deposit shall be returned to Tenant within
thirty (30) days following the later of the expiration of the Lease or the date
Tenant fully vacates the Premises, except for amounts which are needed by
Landlord to cure any default by Tenant.

10

10. USE.
----

10.1 Tenant may use the Premises only for laboratory research
and development and related administrative, office and other ancillary uses as
permitted by (i) the applicable zone under the City of San Diego Land
Development Code, (ii) any other laws, regulations, ordinances, and permits
applicable to the Project, and (iii) all covenants, conditions and restrictions
recorded against the property, and shall not use the Premises, or permit or
suffer the Premises to be used for any other purpose without the prior written
consent of Landlord.

10.2 Tenant shall conduct its business operations and use the
Premises in compliance with all federal, state, and local laws, regulations,
ordinances, requirements, permits and approvals applicable to the Premises.
Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises in violation of any law or
regulation or the certificate of occupancy issued for the Building, and shall,
upon five (5) days written notice from Landlord, discontinue any use of the
Premises which is declared by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to
be a violation of law or the certificate of occupancy. Tenant shall comply with
any direction of any governmental authority having jurisdiction which shall, by
reason of the nature of Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, impose any
duty upon Tenant or Landlord with respect to the Premises or with respect to
Tenant's particular use or occupation thereof. Tenant shall not be deemed to be
in default of the foregoing obligation if it has the right to appeal such
directive and Tenant prosecutes such appeal in a timely fashion and in a manner
that does not impose or threaten to impose any lien, charge or other obligation
on Landlord or any portion of the Project.

10.3 Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which
will invalidate or increase the cost (unless Tenant agrees to pay such increased
cost) of any fire, extended coverage or any other insurance policy covering the
Premises, or which will make such insurance coverage unavailable on commercially
reasonable terms and conditions, and shall comply with all rules, orders,
regulations and requirements of the insurers of the Premises.

10.4 Subject to the warranty of Landlord in Section 14.3,
Tenant shall cause the Premises to comply with the Americans with Disabilities
Act of 1990 ("ADA"), and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended from
time to time. All responsibility for compliance with the ADA relating to the
Premises and the activities conducted by Tenant within the Premises after the
Term Commencement Date shall be exclusively that of Tenant and not of Landlord,
including any duty to make capital improvements, alterations, repairs and
replacements to the Premises; provided, however, (i) Landlord shall be
responsible for compliance with the ADA to the extent of a violation of
Landlord's warranty in Section 14.3; (ii) Landlord shall make all improvements
outside of the Premises required for compliance with the ADA (with only the
amortized costs of capital improvements payable by Tenant as an Operating
Expense under Section 7.1(b)); and (iii) neither Tenant nor Landlord shall be
required to make capital improvements, alterations, repairs or replacements to
comply with the ADA unless and until required to do so by order of a government
entity or court of law exercising proper jurisdiction with regard thereto,
subject to any right to appeal or otherwise contest any such order. Any
alterations to the Premises made by Tenant for the purpose of complying with the
ADA or which otherwise require compliance with the ADA shall be done in
accordance with Article 17; provided, that Landlord's consent to such


11

alterations shall not constitute either Landlord's assumption, in whole or in
part, of Tenant's responsibility for compliance with the ADA, or representation
or confirmation by Landlord that such alterations comply with the provisions of
the ADA.

10.5 Landlord shall identify Tenant on the Building directory
in the Building lobby, and shall identify Tenant on a plaque installed beside
the main door to the Premises. Tenant may not install any signage outside of the
Premises. The expense of the directory, plaque and any and all other signage, if
any, shall be paid by Tenant as an Operating Expense pursuant to Article 7.

10.6 No equipment shall be placed at a location within the
Building other than a location designed to carry the load of the equipment.
Equipment weighing in excess of floor loading capacity shall not be placed in
the Building.

10.7 Tenant shall not use or allow the Premises to be used for
any unlawful purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance or

Expenses pursuant to Section 7.1(b).

possession of all or any part of the Premises after the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall be deemed a tenant from month to month
upon the date of such expiration or earlier termination, and in such case Tenant
shall continue to pay in accordance with Article 5 the Basic Annual Rent as
adjusted in accordance with Article 6, together with Operating Expenses in
accordance with Article 7 and other Additional Rent as may be payable by Tenant,
and such month-to-month tenancy shall be subject to every other term, covenant
and condition contained herein.


12

12.2 If Tenant remains in possession of all or any portion of
the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof
without the express written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall become a tenant at
sufferance upon the terms of this Lease except that monthly rental shall be
equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Monthly Installment of
Basic Annual Rent in effect during the immediately preceding calendar month.

12.3 Acceptance by Landlord of Rent after such expiration or
earlier termination shall not result in a renewal or reinstatement of this
Lease.

12.4 The foregoing provisions of this Article 12 are in
addition to and do not affect Landlord's right to re-entry or any other rights
of Landlord under Article 24 or elsewhere in this Lease or as otherwise provided
by law.

13. TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY
--------------------------

13.1 Tenant shall pay not less than ten (10) days before
delinquency taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed
by Tenant in or about the Premises. Tenant shall not be responsible for taxes
levied against any personal property or trade fixtures of other tenants.

13.2 If any such taxes on Tenant's personal property or trade
fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or, if the assessed
valuation of the Project is increased by the inclusion therein of a value
attributable to Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures, and if Landlord
after written notice to Tenant pays the taxes based upon such increase in the
assessed value, then Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of
satisfactory evidence of such tax increase, repay to Landlord the taxes so
levied against Landlord.

13.3 If any improvements in or alterations to the Premises,
whether owned by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real
property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax
purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which improvements in other
spaces in the Project are assessed, then the real property taxes and assessments
levied against Landlord or the Project by reason of such excess assessed
valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property to Tenant
and shall be governed by the provisions of Section 13.2 above. Any such excess
assessed valuation due to improvements in or alterations to space in the Project
leased by other tenants of Landlord shall not be included in the Operating
Expenses defined in Section 7, but shall be treated, as to such other tenants,
as provided in this Section 13.3, and shall be allocated to such other tenants.
If the records of the county assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to
serve as a basis for determining whether said tenant improvements or alterations
are assessed at a higher valuation than improvements in other spaces in the
Project, such records shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant.

13.4 To the extent Tenant fails to make any payment required
by this Article 13 and Landlord does so on Tenant's behalf, after notice to
Tenant and opportunity for Tenant to make such payment, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for the cost thereof pursuant to the provisions of Sections 7.1 and
24.3.

14. CONDITION OF PREMISES.
----------------------

14.1 Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent
of Landlord has made any representation or warranty, express or implied, with
respect to the condition of the Premises or to the Project, except as set forth
herein, or with respect to their suitability for the conduct of Tenant's
business.

13

14.2 Landlord warrants to Tenant that the Tenant Improvements
were built in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with EXHIBIT E and
EXHIBIT F, and all applicable building code requirements, laws, rules, orders,
ordinances, directions, regulations, permits, approvals, and requirements of all
governmental agencies, offices, departments, bureaus and boards having
jurisdiction, and with the rules, orders, directions, regulations, and
requirements of any applicable fire rating bureau; that the mechanical,
electrical, plumbing and other building systems will be in good working order at
the commencement of the term; and that the Project and the Tenant Improvements
are free of patent and latent defects in design, materials and construction.
Promptly after notice from Tenant, Landlord shall correct any defect in the
Project or the Tenant Improvements in violation of the foregoing warranty which
interferes with Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises.

14.3 Landlord warrants to Tenant that the Project and the
Tenant Improvements, at the time of initial completion, will be in compliance
with ADA and the regulations promulgated thereunder; provided, however, nothing
in this Lease shall be construed to require Landlord to make improvements,
alterations, repairs or replacements to comply with ADA unless and until
required to do so by order of any government entity or court of law exercising
proper jurisdiction with regard thereto, subject to any right to appeal or
otherwise contest any such order.

15. COMMON AREAS AND PARKING FACILITIES.
------------------------------------

15.1 Tenant shall have the nonexclusive right, in common with
others, to use the Common Areas, subject to the rules and regulations adopted by
Landlord and attached hereto as EXHIBIT G together with such other reasonable
and nondiscriminatory rules and regulations as are hereafter promulgated by
Landlord (the "RULES AND REGULATIONS"); provided, however, that such rules and
regulations do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use and enjoyment of the
Premises and Common Areas. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Tenant may allow its employees the nonexclusive right, in common with employees
of other tenants in the Building, to use the fitness facilities and equipment,
provided that Tenant ensures that each employee before using the fitness
facilities and equipment has executed and delivered to Landlord a waiver of
liability (the "FITNESS CENTER WAIVER OF LIABILITY") in the form attached hereto
as EXHIBIT I.

15.2 Tenant shall not place any storage facilities or water systems, mechanical
equipment, emergency generators or other facilities or property on the surface
parking area or otherwise outside of the Premises without the express written
consent of Landlord, and any space used for such facilities shall be deducted
from Tenant's Pro Rata Share of parking described below.

15.3 As an appurtenance to the Premises, Tenant, and its
employees and invitees, shall be entitled to use without charge three (3)
parking spaces (which includes a pro rata share of visitor and handicap parking
spaces) for each 1,000 square feet of usable area of the Premises in common with


14

other tenants of the Project. The Project shall have at least three (3) parking
spaces for each 1,000 square feet of usable area of the entire Project. The term
"usable area" as used herein refers not to the Rentable Area of the Premises,
but to the area actually occupied by Tenant.


16. UTILITIES AND SERVICES.
-----------------------

16.1 Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, electricity,
telephone, cable, and other utilities which may be furnished to the Premises
during the term of this Lease, together with any taxes thereon. If any such
utility is not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Pro Rata
Share of the costs thereof as an Operating Expense unless Landlord has installed
separate meters or measuring devices for the determination of Tenant's actual
use of such utility service. Utilities and services provided to the Premises
which are separately metered shall be paid by Tenant directly to the supplier of
such utility or service, and Tenant shall pay for such utilities and services
prior to delinquency during the term of this Lease. In the event one tenant of
the Project is using a disproportionate amount of any utility that is not
separately metered, Landlord shall allocate an equitable portion of such utility
cost directly to such tenant. The primary measurement for metering usage will be
based upon the cubic feet per minute of air supplied to the premises.

16.2 Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall any eviction
of Tenant result from, any failure of any such utility or service, and in the
event of such failure Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction
of Rent, nor be relieved from the operation of any covenant or agreement of this
Lease, and Tenant waives any right to terminate this Lease on account thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(i) in the event that Landlord is unable to supply
any of the Building's sanitary, electrical, heating, air conditioning, water,
elevator, life safety or other essential systems serving the Premises
(collectively, the "ESSENTIAL SERVICES") from a cause within Landlord's
reasonable control, and such inability of Landlord materially impairs Tenant's
ability to carry on its business in the Premises for a period of ten (10)
consecutive calendar days, Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated
commencing with the eleventh (11th ) day of such material interference with
Tenant's business, based upon the extent to which such inability to supply
Essential Services materially impairs Tenant's ability to carry on its business
in the Premises. Such abatement shall continue until the Essential Services have
been restored to such extent that the lack of any remaining services no longer
materially impairs Tenant's ability to carry on its business in the Premises.
Tenant shall not be entitled to such an abatement to the extent that Landlord's
inability to supply Essential Services to Tenant is caused by Tenant or its
employees, contractors, agents, licensees or invitees; and

(ii) in the event that Landlord is unable to supply
any Essential Services by reason of acts of God, accidents, breakage, repairs,
strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, inability to obtain utilities or materials or
by any other reason beyond Landlord's reasonable control, and (i) such inability
of Landlord prevents Tenant from carrying on its business in the Premises for a
period of thirty (30) consecutive calendar days or (ii) such inability of
Landlord materially impairs Tenant's ability to carry on its business in the
Premises for a period of sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, then Basic Annual
Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated commencing with the day after such
thirty (30) or sixty (60) day period, as the case may be, based upon the extent


15

to which such inability to supply Essential Services materially impairs Tenant's
ability to carry on its business in the Premises. Such abatement shall continue
until the Essential Services have been restored to the extent that the lack of
any remaining services no longer materially impairs Tenant's ability to carry on
its business in the Premises. Tenant shall not be entitled to such an abatement
to the extent that Landlord's inability to supply Essential Services to Tenant
is caused by Tenant or its employees, contractors, agents, licensees or
invitees; and

(iii) in the event of any stoppage or interruption of
Essential Services to the Premises, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to restore Essential Services to the Premises as soon as possible;
provided, that Tenant shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this
Lease by written notice to Landlord if such failure to provide Essential
Services by Landlord continues for any reason (other than the actions of Tenant
or its employees, contractors, agents, licensees or invitees) for more than one
hundred eighty (180) consecutive calendar days and such failure materially
impairs Tenant's ability to carry on its business in the Premises.

16.3 Tenant shall provide and pay for janitors, maintenance
personnel, and other persons who perform duties connected with the operation and
maintenance of the interior of the Premises.

17. ALTERATIONS.
------------

17.1 Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or
improvements (hereinafter in this article, "IMPROVEMENTS") in or to the Premises
without Landlord's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld; provided, however, it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to
withhold consent if the proposed Improvements would in the opinion of Landlord
adversely affect the use of the Premises for generic laboratory-based research
and development space as part of an integrated Building plan after the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord final plans and specifications and working drawings for the
Improvements to Landlord, and Landlord shall have ten (10) days thereafter to
grant or withhold its consent. If Landlord does not notify Tenant of its
decision within the ten (10) days, Landlord shall be deemed to have given its
approval.

17.2 If a permit is required to construct the Improvements,
Tenant shall deliver a completed, signed-off inspection card to Landlord within
ten (10) days of completion of the Improvements, and shall promptly thereafter
obtain and record a notice of completion and deliver a copy thereof to Landlord.

17.3 The Improvements shall be constructed only by licensed
contractors or mechanics. Tenant shall use only those contractors listed on
EXHIBIT H for the trades listed thereon; all other contractors shall be approved
by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any
such contractor must have in force a general liability insurance policy of not
less than $2,000,000 or such higher limits as Landlord may reasonably require,
which policy of insurance shall name Landlord as an additional insured. Tenant
shall provide Landlord with a copy of the contract with the contractor or
mechanic prior to the commencement of any construction requiring Landlord's
consent.

16

17.4 Tenant agrees that any work by Tenant shall be
accomplished in such a manner as to permit any fire sprinkler system and fire
water supply lines to remain fully operable at all times except when minimally
necessary for building reconfiguration work.

17.5 Tenant covenants and agrees that all work done by Tenant
shall be performed in full compliance with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances,
directions, regulations, permits, approvals, and requirements of all
governmental agencies, offices, departments, bureaus and boards having
jurisdiction, and in full compliance with the rules, orders, directions,
regulations, and requirements of any applicable fire rating bureau. Tenant shall
provide Landlord with "as-built" plans showing any material change in the
Premises within thirty (30) days after completion.

17.6 Before commencing any work, Tenant shall give Landlord at
least five (5) days' prior written notice of the proposed commencement of such
work.

17.7 At the time Landlord consents to the Improvements
pursuant to Section 17.1, Landlord shall identify those Improvements which
Tenant shall be required to remove upon the expiration or earlier termination of
the Lease, and Landlord and Tenant shall mutually identify those Improvements
which Tenant may remove upon the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease. Landlord and Tenant shall list any such Improvements on SCHEDULE 1
attached hereto, designating those which Tenant shall be required to remove and
those which Tenant may remove. With respect to those Improvements not so
identified, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Landlord's approval
of the final plans and specifications and working drawings for the Improvements
pursuant to Section 17.1 shall be deemed Landlord's and Tenant's agreement that
those Improvements not so identified shall become the property of Landlord upon
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and shall remain upon and
be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof. Those Improvements
identified as Improvements which Tenant may remove are included within the term
"Tenant's Removable Property" defined in Section 30.3. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 30.3, Tenant shall, at Landlord's election, upon the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, remove the Improvements which
are identified as Improvements which Tenant shall be required to remove, and
restore and return the Premises to the condition they were in when first
occupied by Tenant.

18. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE.
------------------------

18.1 Landlord shall repair, replace and maintain the
structural and exterior portions of the Building and Project, including
foundations, exterior walls, load bearing walls, windows, plate glass, and
roofing, and the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire sprinkler, and elevator
systems of the Project, subject to reimbursement by Tenant as its Pro Rata Share
of Operating Expenses to the extent provided by Section 7.1. However, if such
maintenance or repairs are required because of any act, neglect, fault of or
omissions of any duty by Tenant, its agents, servants, employees or invitees,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord the entire cost of such maintenance and repairs
attributable to Tenant's act, neglect, fault or omission, unless such
maintenance and repairs are covered by insurance carried by Landlord.

17

18.2 Except as otherwise set forth in Section 18.1, Tenant
shall, throughout the term of this Lease, at Tenant's sole cost and expense,
keep the Premises and every part thereof in good condition and repair. Tenant
shall upon the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof surrender
the Premises to Landlord in substantially the same condition as when received,
ordinary wear and tear and damage from casualty and causes beyond the reasonable
control of Tenant excepted.

18.3 Tenant hereby waives Civil Code Sections 1941 and 1942
relating to a landlord's duty to maintain the Premises in a tenantable
condition, and the under said sections or under any law, statute or ordinance
now or hereafter in effect to make repairs at Landlord's expense.

18.4 There shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability of
Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant's business
arising from the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any
portion of the Premises, or in or to improvements, fixtures, equipment and
personal property therein, unless such injury or interference is unreasonable or
is the result of Landlord's grossly negligent or willful act or omission. If
repairs or replacements become necessary which by the terms of this Lease are
the responsibility of Tenant and Tenant fails to make the repairs or
replacements, after notice from Landlord and opportunity for Tenant to make such
repairs or replacements, Landlord may do so pursuant to the provisions of
Section 24.3.

18.5 Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in the event of a
fire, earthquake, flood, war or other similar cause of damage or destruction,
this Article shall not be applicable and the provisions of Article 22, entitled
"Damage or Destruction," shall apply and control.

19. LIENS.
------

19.1 Tenant shall keep the Premises, the Building and the
property upon which the Building is situated free from any liens arising out of
work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by Tenant. Tenant
further covenants and agrees that any mechanic's lien filed against the Project
or the Premises for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to
have been furnished to, Tenant will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or
otherwise, within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice thereof (or
within ten (10) business days after the filing thereof if requested by Landlord
as necessary to facilitate a pending sale or refinancing), at the cost and
expense of Tenant.

19.2 Should Tenant fail to discharge any lien of the nature
described in Section 19.1, Landlord may at Landlord's election pay such claim or
post a bond or otherwise provide security to eliminate the lien as a claim
against title and the cost thereof shall be immediately due from Tenant as
Additional Rent.

19.3 In the event Tenant shall lease or finance the
acquisition of equipment, furnishings, or other personal property utilized by
Tenant in the operation of Tenant's business, Tenant warrants that any Uniform
Commercial Code financing statement executed by Tenant will upon its face or by
exhibit thereto indicate that such financing statement is applicable only to
personal property of Tenant specifically described in the financing statement.
In no event shall the address of the Building be furnished on the financing
statement without qualifying language as to applicability of the lien only to
removable property of Tenant described in the financing statement. Should any


18

holder of a security agreement executed by Tenant record or place of record a
financing statement which appears to constitute a lien against any interest of
Landlord, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after the filing of such financing
statement cause (i) copies of the security agreement or other documents to which
the financing statement pertains to be furnished to Landlord to facilitate
Landlord's being in a position to show such lien is not applicable to any
interest of Landlord, and (ii) the holder of the security interest to amend
documents of record so as to clarify that such lien is not applicable to any
interest of Landlord in the Premises. Landlord shall execute such documents as
are reasonably required by Tenant or Tenant's lenders or equipment lessors
provided the same do not in any way alter the rights of Landlord under this
Lease.

20. INDEMNIFICATION AND EXCULPATION.
--------------------------------

20.1 Except to the extent of the responsibility of Landlord
pursuant to Section 20.2 hereof, Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord and its
members and affiliates, and their respective shareholders, directors, managers,
members, partners, lenders, officers, agents, and employees (collectively,
"LANDLORD'S AGENTS"), against, and to protect, defend, and save them harmless
from, all demands, claims, causes of action, liabilities, losses and judgments,
and all reasonable expenses incurred in investigating or resisting the same
(including reasonable attorneys' fees), for death of or injury to person or
damage to property arising out of (i) any occurrence in, upon or about the
Premises during the term of this Lease, (ii) Tenant's use, occupancy, repairs,
maintenance, and improvements of the Premises and all improvements, fixtures,
equipment and personal property thereon, and (iii) any act or omission of
Tenant, its shareholders, directors, officers, agents, employees, servants,
contractors, invitees and subtenants, except to the extent caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's Agents. Tenant's
obligation under this Section 20.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of the term of this Lease.

20.2 Landlord agrees to indemnify Tenant and Tenant's
shareholders, directors, managers, members, partners, lenders, affiliates,
officers, agents, and employees (collectively "TENANT'S AGENTS") against and
save them harmless from all demands, claims, causes of action and judgments, and
all reasonable expenses incurred in investigating or resisting the same
(including reasonable attorneys' fees), for death of, or injury to, any person
or damage to property arising from or out of any occurrence in, upon, or about
the Premises during the term of this Lease to the extent caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's Agents. Landlord's
obligations under this Section 20.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of the term of this Lease.

20.3 Notwithstanding any provision of this Article 20 to the
contrary, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant assumes all risk of
damage to and loss of any fixtures, goods, inventory, merchandise, equipment,
records, research, experiments, animals and other living organisms, computer
hardware and software, leasehold improvements, and other personal property of
any nature whatsoever, and Landlord shall not be liable for injury to Tenant's
business or any loss of income therefrom relative to such damage, other than to
the extent Landlord receives proceeds of insurance specifically allocated to
such damage or loss. Tenant acknowledges that it is Tenant's obligation to
procure insurance against any such damages or loss pursuant to Section 21.4, and
that it would be impractical for Landlord to procure any such insurance in that


19

the nature of Tenant's business makes the risks uncertain and difficult to
underwrite and the potential risks are greater than Landlord is willing to
assume. Therefore, regardless of the fault of Landlord, Landlord shall not be
liable for any such damage or loss, other than to the extent Landlord receives
proceeds of insurance specifically allocated to such damage or loss.

20.4 The indemnity obligations of both Landlord and Tenant
under this Section 20 shall be satisfied to the extent of proceeds of applicable
insurance maintained by the indemnifying party to the extent thereof, and
thereafter to proceeds of any applicable insurance maintained by the other
party; Landlord and Tenant shall be required to satisfy any such obligation only
to the extent it is not satisfied by proceeds of applicable insurance as set
forth above.

20.5 Security devices and services, if any, while intended to
deter crime may not in given instances prevent theft or other criminal acts of
third parties and it is agreed that Landlord shall not be liable for injuries or
losses caused by criminal acts of third parties and the risk that any security
device or service may malfunction or otherwise be circumvented by a criminal is
assumed by Tenant, other than such injuries caused by the gross negligence or
intentional conduct of the Landlord. Tenant shall at Tenant's cost obtain
insurance coverage to the extent Tenant desires protection against such criminal
acts.

20.6 Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be liable to the other
for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant or occupant
of the Building or Project.

21. INSURANCE - WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.
----------------------------------

21.1 Commencing prior to Tenant's first entry onto the
Premises for purposes of installing any improvements, fixtures or personal
property, but no later than the Term Commencement Date, and continuing at all
times during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall maintain, at Tenant's expense,
commercial general liability insurance, on an occurrence basis, insuring Tenant
and Tenant's agents, employees and independent contractors against all bodily
injury, property damage, personal injury and other covered loss arising out of
the use, occupancy, improvement and maintenance of the Premises and the business
operated by Tenant, or any other occupant, on the Premises. Such insurance shall
have a minimum combined single limit of liability per occurrence of not less
than $2,000,000 and a general aggregate limit of $4,000,000. Such insurance
shall: (i) name Landlord, and Landlord's lenders if required by such lenders,
and any management company retained to manage the Project if requested by
Landlord, as additional insureds; (ii) include a broad form contractual
liability endorsement insuring Tenant's indemnity obligations under Section
20.1; (iii) provide that it is primary coverage and noncontributing with any
insurance maintained by Landlord or Landlord's lenders, which shall be excess
insurance with respect only to losses arising out of Tenant's negligence; and
(iv) provide for severability of interests or include a cross-liability
endorsement, such that an act or omission of an insured shall not reduce or
avoid coverage of other insureds.

21.2 At all times during the term of this Lease, Landlord
shall maintain, subject to reimbursement by Tenant as an Operating Expense under
Section 7.1(b), "all risk" insurance, including, but not limited to, coverage
against loss or damage by fire, vandalism, and malicious mischief covering the
Project (exclusive of excavations, foundations and footings, and including the


20

Tenant Improvements), in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the
full replacement value thereof. If any boilers or other pressure vessels or
systems are installed on the Premises, Landlord shall maintain, subject to
reimbursement by Tenant as an Operating Expense under Section 7.1(b), boiler and
machinery insurance in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the full
replacement value thereof. The insurance described in this Section 21.2 shall:
(i) insure Landlord, and Landlord's lenders if required by such lenders, as
their interests may appear; (ii) contain a Lender's Loss Payable Form (Form 438
BFU or equivalent) in favor of Landlord's lenders and name Landlord, or
Landlord's lender if required by such lender, as the loss payee; (iii) provide
for severability of interests or include a cross-liability endorsement, such
that an act or omission of an insured shall not reduce or avoid coverage of
other insureds; and (iv) provide that it is primary coverage and
non-contributing with any insurance maintained by Landlord or Landlord's
lenders, which shall be excess insurance. The full replacement value of the
Project, including the Tenant Improvements and other improvements and fixtures
insured thereunder, shall, for the purpose of establishing insurance limits and
premiums only, be determined by the company issuing the insurance policy and
shall be redetermined by said company within six (6) months after completion of
any material alterations or improvements to the Premises and otherwise at
intervals of not more than three (3) years. Landlord shall promptly increase the
amount of the insurance carried pursuant to this Section 21.2 to the amount so
redetermined. The proceeds of the insurance described in this Section shall be
used for the repair, replacement and restoration of the Project, including the
Tenant Improvements and other improvements and fixtures insured thereunder, as
further provided in Article 22; provided, however, if this Lease is terminated
after damage or destruction, the insurance policy or policies, all rights
thereunder and all insurance proceeds shall be assigned to Landlord

21.3 At all times during this Lease, Landlord shall maintain,
pursuant to requirements of its mortgage lender, subject to reimbursement by
Tenant as an Operating Expense under Section 7.1(b), commercial general
liability insurance, including coverage for death, bodily injury and broad form
property damage, with a combined single limit in an amount of not less than
$1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate; umbrella excess
liability coverage with a limit of not less than $20,000,000 over primary
insurance, which policy shall include coverage for water damage, assumed and
contractual liability coverage, premises medical payment, and automobile
liability; and rental and/or business interruption insurance to cover loss of
income in an amount not less than eighteen (18) months' projected receipts from
the entire Project.

21.4 At all times during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall
maintain, at Tenant's expense, "all risk" insurance against all damage and loss
to Tenant's Removable Property, including but not limited to fixtures, goods,
inventory, merchandise, equipment, records, research, experiments, animals and
other living organisms, computer hardware and software, leasehold improvements,
and other personal property of any nature whatsoever of Tenant or any subtenant
of Tenant that may be occupying the Premises, or any portion thereof, from time
to time, in an amount equal to the full replacement value thereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained here, Tenant shall be
entitled to all proceeds from the insurance carried pursuant to this Section
21.4.

21

21.5 At all times during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall
maintain workers' compensation insurance in accordance with California law, and
employers' liability insurance with limits typical for companies similar to
Tenant.

21.6 All of the policies of insurance referred to in this
Article 21 shall be written by companies authorized to do business in California
and having a policyholder rating of not less than AA (or its equivalent), or a
lesser rating reasonably acceptable to Landlord, by a generally accepted
insurance rating agency. Each insurer referred to in this Article 21 shall
agree, by endorsement on the applicable policy or by independent instrument
furnished to Landlord, that it will give Landlord, and Landlord's lenders if
required by such lenders, at least ten (10) days' prior written notice by
registered mail before the applicable policy shall be canceled for non-payment
of premium, and thirty (30) days' prior written notice by registered mail before
the applicable policy shall be canceled or altered in coverage, scope, amount or
other material term for any other reason (although any failure of an insurer to
give notice as provided herein shall not be a breach of this Lease by Tenant).
No policy shall provide for a deductible amount in excess of $100,000, unless
approved in advance in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, and to
Landlord's lenders if required by such lenders, copies of the insurance policies
required to be carried by Tenant, certified by the insurer, or certificates
evidencing such insurance policies, issued by the insurer, together with
evidence of payment of the required premiums, prior to the required date for
commencement of such coverage. At least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of
any such policy, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, and Landlord's lenders if
required by such lenders, a certificate evidencing renewal, or a certified copy
of a new policy or certificate evidencing the same, together with evidence of
payment of the required premiums. If Tenant fails to provide to Landlord any
such policy or certificate by the required date for commencement of coverage, or
within fifteen (15) days prior to expiration of any policy, or to pay the
premiums therefor when required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to procure said insurance and pay the premiums therefor. Any
premiums so paid by Landlord shall be repaid by Tenant to Landlord with the next
due installment of rent, and failure to repay the same shall have the same
consequences as failure to pay any installment of Rent.

21.7 Landlord may provide the property insurance required
under this Article 21 pursuant to a so-called blanket policy or policies of
property insurance maintained by Landlord.

21.8 Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive any and all rights
of recovery against the other or against the officers, directors, members,
managers, partners, employees, agents, and representatives of the other, on
account of loss or damage to such waiving party or such waiving party's property
or the property of others under its control, to the extent that such loss or
damage is caused by or results from risks insured against under any insurance
policy which insures such waiving party's property at the time of such loss or
damage, which waiver shall continue in effect as long as the parties' respective
insurers so permit. Any termination of such waiver shall be by written notice as
hereinafter set forth. Prior to obtaining policies of insurance required or
permitted under this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall give notice to the
insurers that the foregoing mutual waiver is contained in this Lease, and each
party shall use its best efforts to cause such insurer to approve such waiver in
writing and to cause each insurance policy obtained by it to provide that the
insurer waives all right of recovery by way of subrogation against the other


22

party. If such written approval of such waiver of subrogation cannot be obtained
from any insurer or is obtainable only upon payment of an additional premium
which the party seeking to obtain the policy reasonably determines to be
commercially unreasonable, the party seeking to obtain such policy shall notify
the other thereof, and the latter shall have twenty (20) days thereafter to
either: (i) identify other insurance companies reasonably satisfactory to the
other party that will provide the written approval and waiver of subrogation; or
(ii) agree to pay such additional premium. If neither (i) nor (ii) are done, the
mutual waiver set forth above shall not be operative, and the party seeking to
obtain the policy shall be relieved of the obligation to obtain the insurer's
written approval and waiver of subrogation with respect to such policy during
such time as such policy is not obtainable or is obtainable only upon payment of
a commercially unreasonable additional premium as described above. If such
policies shall at any subsequent time be obtainable or obtainable upon payment
of a commercially reasonable additional premium, neither party shall be
subsequently liable for failure to obtain such insurance until a reasonable time
after notification thereof by the other party. If the release of either Landlord
or Tenant, as set forth in the first sentence of this Section 21.8, shall
contravene any law with respect to exculpatory agreements, the liability of the
party in question shall be deemed not released but shall be secondary to the
other's insurer.

22. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.
----------------------

22.1 In the event of damage to or destruction of all or any
portion of the Project or the Premises or the improvements and fixtures thereon
(collectively, "IMPROVEMENTS") arising from a risk covered by the insurance
described in Section 21.2, Landlord shall within a reasonable time commence and
proceed diligently to repair, reconstruct and restore (collectively, "RESTORE")
the improvements to substantially the same condition as they were in immediately
prior to the casualty. Tenant shall be responsible for its Pro Rata Share of
insurance deductibles and for all costs of restoration in excess of insurance
proceeds as Operating Expenses pursuant to the provisions of Article 7,
provided, however, that any such costs which would be deemed of a "capital"
nature under generally accepted accounting principles shall be amortized over
the useful life of the repair or replacement as determined under Internal
Revenue Service guidelines, and Tenant shall pay only that portion of the costs
which are amortized over the balance of the term, payable at the time the costs
are incurred to the extent Tenant's share of the costs are less than $1.75 per
square foot of Rentable Area of the Premises, with the balance payable on a
monthly basis during the balance of the term. In no event shall Tenant be liable
for costs of restoration to the extent the inadequacy of insurance proceeds is
due to Landlord's failure to carry the insurance required to be carried by
Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

22.2 In the event of any damage to or destruction of all or
any portion of the improvements arising from a risk which is not covered by the
insurance required to be carried by Landlord pursuant to Section 21.2, Landlord
may elect at its cost to restore the improvements, in which event Landlord
shall, within a reasonable time, commence and proceed diligently to restore the
improvements to substantially the same condition as they were in immediately
prior to the casualty. In the event Landlord elects not to restore the
improvements, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the damage or
destruction unless Tenant elects to pay the full cost of restoration.

23

22.3 In the event the improvements are restored pursuant to
Section 22.1 or Section 22.2, this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect, notwithstanding such damage or destruction; provided, however, that if
the damage or destruction (i) occurs during the last year of the term and the
expense of restoration exceeds $500,000, or (ii) occurs at any other time and
the expense of restoration (after application of insurance proceeds) exceeds
$1,000,000, Landlord may at its election terminate the Lease unless Tenant
elects to pay the full cost of restoration.

22.4 In satisfying its obligations under this Article 22,
Landlord shall be not be required to fulfill its restoration responsibilities
with improvements identical to those which were damaged or destroyed; rather,
with the consent of Tenant, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed, Landlord may restore the damage or destruction with improvements
reasonably equivalent or of reasonably equivalent value to those damaged or
destroyed. Provided, however, that such restoration complies with all the then
existing applicable building codes.

22.5 In the event of damage, destruction and/or restoration as
herein provided, Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages
occasioned by any such damage, destruction or restoration, but Tenant shall be
entitled to an equitable abatement of rent in proportion to the extent the
Premises are not usable by Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
restoration cannot reasonably be completed within six (6) months following the
damage or destruction as estimated by Landlord's architect, Landlord will give
notice thereof to Tenant within fifteen (15) days following such damage or
destruction, and Tenant at its election may by written notice to Landlord
terminate this Lease. In the event of such termination, Tenant shall have no
responsibility for contributing to the expense of restoration.

22.6 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Article, should Landlord be delayed or prevented from completing the
restoration of the improvements after the occurrence of such damage or
destruction by reason of acts of God, war, terrorism, government restrictions,
inability to procure the necessary labor or materials, strikes, or other causes
beyond the control of Landlord (but excluding economic conditions or financial
inability to perform), the time for Landlord to commence or complete restoration
shall be extended for the time reasonably required as a result of such event.

22.7 If an insured casualty occurs, Landlord shall make the
loss adjustment with the insurance company for the insurance carried by
Landlord.

22.8 Tenant waives the provisions of Civil Code Section
1932(2) and 1933(4) or any similar statute now existing or hereafter adopted
governing destruction of the Premises, so that the parties' rights and
obligations in the event of damage or destruction shall be governed by the
provisions of this Lease.


23. EMINENT DOMAIN.
---------------

23.1 In the event the whole of the Project shall be taken for
any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise
of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to
prevent such taking, Tenant or Landlord may terminate this Lease effective as of
the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority.

24

23.2 In the event of a partial taking of the Project for any
public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of
right of appropriation, condemnation, or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such
taking, then Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease if such taking is of a
material nature such as to make it uneconomical to continue use of the
unappropriated portions for the purposes for which they were intended, and
Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease if such taking is of material detriment
to, and substantially interferes with, Tenant's use and occupancy of the
Premises. In no event shall this Lease be terminated when such a partial taking
does not have a material adverse effect upon Landlord or Tenant or both.
Termination by either party pursuant to this section shall be effective as of
the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority.

23.3 If upon any taking of the nature described in this
Article 23 this Lease continues in effect, then Landlord shall promptly proceed
to restore the remaining portion of the Project, including all improvements and
fixtures located in the Premises, to substantially their same condition prior to
such partial taking; provided, however, Landlord's obligation hereunder shall be
limited to the amount of the condemnation proceeds. Basic Annual Rent shall be
abated proportionately on the basis of the square feet of the Rentable Area of
the Project or Premises taken.

24. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.
----------------------

24.1 Late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent and other sums
due will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact
amount of which will be extremely difficult and impracticable 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. Therefore, if any installment of Rent due from
Tenant is not received by Landlord within ten (10) days of the date such payment
is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of five percent (5%) of
the overdue rent as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge
represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur
by reason of late payment by Tenant. In addition to the late charge, Rent not
paid within thirty (30) days of the date such payment is due shall bear interest
from thirty (30) days after the date due until paid at the rate of ten percent
(10%) per annum.

24.2 No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser
amount than the rent payment herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than
on account of the rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or
any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and
satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to
Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy
provided. If at any time a dispute shall arise as to any amount or sum of money
to be paid by Tenant to Landlord, Tenant shall have the right to make payment
"under protest" and such payment shall not be regarded as a voluntary payment,
and there shall survive the right on the part of Tenant to institute suit for
recovery of the payment paid under protest.

25

24.3 If Tenant fails to pay any sum of money (other than Basic
Annual Rent) required to be paid by it hereunder, or shall fail to perform any
other act on its part to be performed hereunder, Landlord may, without waiving
or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant, but shall not be obligated
to, make such payment or perform such act; provided, that such failure by Tenant
continued for ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord demanding
performance by Tenant was delivered to Tenant, or resulted or could have
resulted in a violation of law or the cancellation of an insurance policy
maintained by Landlord. All sums so paid or incurred by Landlord, together with
interest thereon, from the date such sums were paid or incurred, at the annual
rate equal to ten percent (10%) per annum shall be payable to Landlord on demand
as Additional Rent.

24.4 The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a default hereunder by Tenant:

(a) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of
Rent, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of five
(5) days, without the necessity of notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant;

(b) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any
obligation other than described in Section 24.4(a) to be performed by Tenant,
where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written
notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of
Tenant's default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required
to cure the default, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant
shall commence such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter
diligently prosecute the same to completion. Such notice shall be in lieu of,
and not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil
Procedure Section 1161;

(c) Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of
creditors;

(d) A receiver, trustee or custodian is appointed to,
or does, take title,
possession or control of all, or substantially all, of Tenant's assets;

(e) An order for relief is entered against Tenant
pursuant to a voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any chapter of
the Bankruptcy Code;

(f) Any involuntary petition is filed against the
Tenant under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code and is not dismissed within
ninety (90) days; or

(g) Tenant's interest in this Lease is attached,
executed upon, or otherwise judicially seized and such action is not released
within ninety (90) days of the action.

Notices given under this Section shall specify the
alleged default and shall demand that Tenant perform the provisions of this
Lease or pay the Rent that is in arrears, as the case may be, within the
applicable period of time, or quit the Premises. No such notice shall be deemed
a forfeiture or a termination of this Lease unless Landlord elects otherwise in
such notice, and in no event shall a forfeiture or termination occur without
such written notice.

26

24.5 In the event of a default by Tenant, and at any time
thereafter, and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or remedy
which Landlord may have, Landlord shall be entitled to terminate Tenant's right
to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease
shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the
Premises to Landlord. In such event Landlord shall have the immediate right to
re-enter and remove all persons and property, and such property may be removed
and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the
account of Tenant, all without service of notice and without being deemed guilty
of trespass, or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned
thereby. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease, then
Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by
Landlord by reason of Tenant's default, including:

(a) The worth at the time of award any unpaid Rent
which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus

(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by
which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the
time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss which Tenant proves could
have been reasonably avoided; plus

(c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by
which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the term after the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss which Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided; plus

(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord
for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its
obligation under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be
likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, the cost of restoring
the Premises to the condition required under the terms of this Lease; plus

(e) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in
addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by
applicable law.

As used in Subsections (a), (b) and (c), the "time of
award" shall mean the date upon which the judgment in any action brought by
Landlord against Tenant by reason of such default is entered or such earlier
date as the court may determine . As used in Subsections (a) and (b), the "worth
at the time of award" shall be computed by allowing interest at the rate
specified in Section 24.1. As used in Subsection (c) above, the "worth at the
time of award" shall be computed by taking the present value of such amount
using the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time
of award plus one percentage point.

24.6 In the event of a default by Tenant, and if Landlord does
not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 24.5 or otherwise
terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, Landlord shall have the
remedy described in Section 1951.4 of the Civil Code. Landlord may continue this
Lease in effect, as lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to
reasonable limitations, pursuant to Section 25.1 and 25.2 for so long as
Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, and
may enforce all of its rights and remedies under the Lease, including the right
from time to time to recover Rent as it becomes due under the Lease. At any time
thereafter, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease and to recover damages to
which Landlord is entitled.

27

24.7 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
Landlord's reentry to perform acts of maintenance or preservation of, or in
connection with efforts to relet, the Premises, or any portion thereof, or the
appointment of a receiver upon Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord's
interest under this Lease, shall not terminate Tenant's right to possession of
the Premises or any portion thereof and, until Landlord does elect to terminate
this Lease, this Lease shall continue in full force and Landlord may pursue all
its remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, the right to recover from
Tenant as they become due hereunder all Rent and other charges required to be
paid by Tenant under the terms of this Lease.

24.8 All rights, options, and remedies of Landlord contained
in this Lease shall be construed and held to be nonexclusive and cumulative.
Landlord shall have the right to pursue any one or all of such remedies or any
other remedy or relief which may be provided by law, whether or not stated in
this Lease. No waiver of any default of Tenant hereunder shall be implied from
any acceptance by Landlord of any rent or other payments due hereunder or by any
omission by Landlord to take any action on account of such default if such
default persists or is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect defaults
other than as specified in said waiver.

24.9 Termination of this Lease or Tenant's right to possession by Landlord shall
not relieve Tenant from any liability to Landlord which has theretofore accrued
or shall arise based upon events which occurred prior to the last to occur of
(i) the date of Lease termination or (ii) the date possession of Premises is
surrendered.

24.10 Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails
to perform obligations required of Landlord within a reasonable time, but in no
event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant specifying
wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that
if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days
are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord
advises Tenant in writing of the need for more than thirty (30) days to perform
such obligation, commences performance within ten (10) days after Tenant serves
the written notice of Landlord's failure to perform and thereafter diligently
prosecutes the same to completion.

24.11 In the event of any default on the part of Landlord,
Tenant will give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a
deed of trust or mortgagee of a mortgage covering the Premises whose address
shall have been furnished to Tenant, and shall offer such beneficiary and/or
mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure the default, but in no event less
than thirty (30) days after the notice is given or thirty (30) days beyond any
applicable cure period given to Landlord in this Article 24, whichever is later.

25. ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLETTING.
-------------------------

25.1 Except as hereinafter provided, Tenant shall not, either
voluntarily or by operation of law, sell, assign, hypothecate or transfer this
Lease, or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit or suffer the
Premises or any part thereof to be used or occupied as work space, storage
space, concession or otherwise by anyone other than Tenant or Tenant's
employees, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

28

25.2 If Tenant desires to assign this Lease to an entity into
which Tenant is merged, with which Tenant is consolidated, or which acquires all
or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, provided that the successor
entity's net worth and liquid assets are equal or greater than Tenant's
immediately prior to the assignment, and further provided that the assignee
first executes, acknowledges and delivers to Landlord an agreement whereby the
assignee agrees to be bound by all of the covenants and agreements in this Lease
arising after the effective date of the transfer, then Landlord upon receipt of
proof of foregoing, will consent to the assignment; provided however, Landlord's
consent shall not be required if such transfers occur in a public stock
exchange.

25.3 In the event Tenant desires to assign, hypothecate or
otherwise transfer this Lease or sublet the Premises or any part thereof to a
transferee other than one set forth in Section 25.2, then at least ten (10)
days, but not more than forty-five (45) days, prior to the date when Tenant
desires the assignment or sublease to be effective (the "ASSIGNMENT DATE"),
Tenant shall give Landlord a notice (the "ASSIGNMENT NOTICE") which shall set
forth the name, address and business of the proposed assignee or sublessee,
information (including references and financial statements) concerning the
reputation and financial ability of the proposed assignee or sublessee, the
Assignment Date, any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the
proposed assignee or sublessee, and the consideration and all other material
terms and conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease, all in such detail
as Landlord shall reasonably require.

25.4 Landlord in making its determination as to whether
consent should be given to a proposed assignment or sublease, may give
consideration to (i) the financial strength of such successor (but may not
withhold consent on this ground if the successor's net worth and liquid assets
are equal to or greater than Tenant's immediately prior to the assignment),
notwithstanding the assignor remaining liable for Tenant's performance, (ii) any
use which such successor proposes to make of the Premises, and (iii) whether the
proposed assignee or sublessee represents a potential risk of compromise of
trade secrets of another tenant of the Project. If Landlord fails to deliver
written notice of its determination to Tenant within fifteen (15) days following
receipt of the Assignment Notice and the information required under Section
25.4, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the request. As a condition to
any assignment or sublease to which Landlord has given consent, any such
assignee or sublessee must execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an
agreement whereby the assignee or sublessee agrees to be bound by all of the
covenants and agreements in this Lease.

25.5 Any sale, assignment, hypothecation or transfer of this
Lease or subletting of Premises that is not in compliance with the provisions of
this Article 25 shall be void.

25.6 The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting
shall not relieve Tenant or any assignee of this Lease or sublessee of the
Premises from obtaining the consent of Landlord to any further assignment or
subletting or as releasing Tenant or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant from
full and primary liability.

29

25.7 If Tenant shall sublet the Premises or any part thereof,
Tenant hereby immediately and irrevocably assigns to Landlord, as security for
Tenant's obligations under this Lease, all rent from any subletting of all or a
part of the Premises, and Landlord as assignee of Tenant, or a receiver for
Tenant appointed on Landlord's application, may collect such rent and apply it
toward Tenant's obligations under this Lease; except that, until the occurrence
of an act of default by Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to collect such
rent. Furthermore, Tenant hereby immediately and irrevocably assigns to
Landlord, as security for Tenant's obligations under this Lease, any security
deposit received from the subtenant, which Landlord shall hold pursuant to the
terms of the sublease. The security deposit shall be transferable by Landlord to
a successor Landlord and to Landlord's mortgage lender which is the beneficiary
of a deed of trust encumbering the Premises, provided such lender agrees to hold
the security deposit pursuant to the terms of the sublease and this Lease.

25.8 Notwithstanding any subletting or assignment Tenant shall
remain fully and primarily liable for the payment of all Rent and other sums
due, or to become due hereunder, and for the full performance of all other
terms, conditions, and covenants to be kept and performed by Tenant. The
acceptance of rent or any other sum due hereunder, or the acceptance of
performance of any other term, covenant, or condition hereof, from any other
person or entity shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the provisions of
this Lease or a consent to any subletting or assignment of the Premises.
Landlord shall not withhold consent to an assignment back to the original Tenant
hereunder from a subsequent assignee.

25.9 Any sublease of the Premises shall be subject and
subordinate to the provisions of this Lease, shall not extend beyond the term of
this Lease, and shall provide that the sublessee shall attorn to Landlord, at
Landlord's sole option, in the event of the termination of this Lease. Landlord
and any lender shall upon Tenant's request provide any sublessee of the entirety
of the Premises with a recognition and nondisturbance agreement in the form
described in Article 35 on the condition that the sublessee agrees to attorn to
Landlord on exactly the same terms and conditions as this Lease. Any assignment
of the Lease or sublease of the Premises shall provide that the assignee or
sublessee shall provide financial statements to Landlord as reasonably required
by present and prospective lenders and purchasers of the Project.

25.10 In the event Tenant assigns, hypothecates or otherwise
transfer this Lease or sublets the Premises Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as
Additional Rent, fifty percent (50%) of the rent and other consideration
received from the transferee during the term of this Lease in excess of Rent
payable to Landlord under this Lease, after tenant has recouped any reasonable
commissions and legal expenses occasioned by such transfer and payable to third
parties.

25.11 Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions to the
contrary, in the event Tenant desires to assign this Sublease or sublet the
entire Premises to a transferee other than to a transferee describe in Section
25.2, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice given by
Landlord to Tenant within fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Assignment
Notice and the information required under Section 25.3.

30

26. ARBITRATION/ATTORNEYS' FEES.
----------------------------

26.1 Any and all disputes in any way arising out of or
relating to this Lease shall be submitted to binding arbitration before the
American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall be presided over by one
arbitrator. The appointment of the arbitrator shall be in accordance with
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1281.6. Prior to the arbitration
hearing, the Landlord and Tenant shall exchange all documents they intend to
rely on at the hearing. If approved by the arbitrator, the Landlord and Tenant
may also take depositions or engage in other forms of written discovery.

26.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may prosecute a
court action for unlawful detainer in order to effect an eviction of tenant to
the extent permitted by this Lease.

26.3 If either party commences an arbitration proceeding or
court action, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from
the other party reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and costs of
suit.


27. BANKRUPTCY.
-----------

27.1 In the event a debtor, trustee, or debtor-in-possession
under the Bankruptcy Code, or other person with similar rights, duties and
powers under any other law, proposes to cure any default under this Lease or to
assume or assign this Lease, and is obliged to provide adequate assurance to
Landlord that (i) a default will be cured, (ii) Landlord will be compensated for
its damages arising from any breach of this Lease, or (iii) future performance
under this Lease will occur, then adequate assurance shall include any or all of
the following, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court: (a) those acts specified
in the Bankruptcy Code or other law as included within the meaning of adequate
assurance; (b) a cash payment to compensate Landlord for any monetary defaults
or damages arising from a breach of this Lease; (c) the credit worthiness and
desirability, as a tenant, of the person assuming this Lease or receiving an
assignment of this Lease, at least equal to Landlord's customary and usual
credit worthiness requirements and desirability standards in effect at the time
of the assumption or assignment, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court; and (d)
the assumption or assignment of all of Tenant's interest and obligations under
this Lease.

28. DEFINITION OF LANDLORD.
-----------------------

28.1 The term "LANDLORD" as used in this Lease, so far as
covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord are concerned, shall be limited
to mean and include only Landlord or the successor-in-interest of Landlord under
this Lease at the time in question. In the event of any transfer, assignment or
conveyance of Landlord's title or leasehold, the Landlord herein named (and in
case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor and any prior
grantors) shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of
such transfer, assignment or conveyance of all liability for the performance of
any covenants or obligations contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed
by Landlord and, without further agreement, the transferee of such title or
leasehold shall be deemed to have assumed and agreed to observe and perform any


31

and all obligations of Landlord hereunder, during its ownership of the Premises.
Landlord may transfer its interest in the Premises or this Lease without the
consent of Tenant and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a
violation on the part of Landlord or the then grantor of any of the terms or
conditions of this Lease.

29. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
---------------------

29.1 Each party shall, within fifteen (15) days of written
notice from the other party, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other party
a statement in writing on a form reasonably requested by a proposed lender,
purchaser, assignee or subtenant (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 dates to which the rental and other charges are paid in advance,
if any, (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to each party's knowledge, any
uncured defaults on the part of Landlord or Tenant hereunder (or specifying such
defaults if any are claimed) and (iii) setting forth such further information
with respect to this Lease or the Premises as may be reasonably requested
thereon. Any such statement may be relied upon by any prospective lender,
purchaser, assignee or subtenant of all or any portion of the Premises.

30. REMOVAL OF PROPERTY.
--------------------

30.1 Except as provided in Section 10.5 and in this Article
30, all fixtures and personal property owned by Tenant ("TENANT'S REMOVABLE
PROPERTY") shall be and remain the property of Tenant, and may be removed by
Tenant at any time. Landlord waives any and all rights, title and interest
Landlord now has, or hereafter may have, whether statutory or otherwise, in
Tenant's Removable Property. At the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease, Tenant shall remove all Tenant's Removable Property in accordance with
this Lease, unless Landlord shall have otherwise agreed in writing.

30.2 The Project, Building and Tenant Improvements, and all
fixtures and personal property owned by Landlord, shall be and remain the
property of Landlord, and shall, upon the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease, remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof.

30.3 Notwithstanding Section 30.1, Tenant may not remove any
property if such removal would cause material damage to the Premises, unless
such damage can be and is repaired by Tenant. Furthermore, Tenant shall repair
any damage to the Premises caused by Tenant's removal of any such property, and
shall, prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, restore and
return the Premises to substantially the same condition they were in when first
occupied by Tenant, reasonable wear and tear excepted. At a minimum, even if
they are determined to be fixtures or personal property owned by Tenant, and
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 30.1, Tenant shall leave in place and
repair any damage to the interior floors, walls, doors and ceilings of the
Premises, all cabling and wiring in the Premises, and the heating, ventilation,
air conditioning, plumbing, and electrical systems in the Premises; all such
property shall become the property of Landlord upon the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the
Premises as a part thereof. The provisions of Article 17 shall apply to any
restoration work under this Article as if the restoration was an alteration,


32

addition or improvement thereunder. Should Tenant require any period beyond the
expiration or earlier termination of the Lease to complete such restoration,
Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance subject to the provisions of Section 12.2
hereof, unless tenant obtains Landlord's consent pursuant to Section 12.1 prior
to the termination or earlier termination of the Lease.

30.4 If Tenant shall fail to remove any fixtures or personal
property which it is entitled to remove under this Article 30 from the Premises
prior to termination of this Lease, then Landlord may dispose of the property
under the provisions of Section 1980 et seq. of the California Civil Code, as
such provisions may be modified from time to time, or under any other applicable
provisions of California law.

31. LIMITATION OF LANDLORD'S LIABILITY.
-----------------------------------

31.1 If Landlord is in default of this Lease, and as a
consequence, Tenant recovers a money judgment against Landlord, the judgment
shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received on execution of the
judgment and levy against the right, title, and interest of Landlord in the
Project of which the Premises are a part, or, in the sole discretion of the
Tenant, out of rent or other income from the Project receivable by Landlord or
out of the consideration received by Landlord from the sale or other disposition
of all or any part of Landlord's right, title, and interest in the Building and
Project of which the Premises are a part.

31.2 Neither Landlord nor Landlord's Agents shall be
personally liable for any deficiency except to the extent liability is based
upon willful and intentional misconduct and except to the extent a court
determines the existence of an alter ego relationship. If Landlord is a
partnership or joint venture, the partners of such partnership shall not be
personally liable and no partner of Landlord shall be sued or named as a party
in any suit or action, or service of process be made against any partner of
Landlord, except as may be necessary to secure jurisdiction of the partnership
or joint venture or to the extent liability is caused by gross negligence,
willful and intentional misconduct. If Landlord is a corporation, other than as
provided above, the shareholders, directors, officers, employees, and/or agents
of such corporation shall not be personally liable and no shareholder, director,
officer, employee, or agent of Landlord shall be sued or named as a party in any
suit or action, or service of process be made against any shareholder, director,
officer, employee, or agent of Landlord, except as may be necessary to secure
jurisdiction of the corporation. If Landlord is a limited liability company,
other than as provided above, the members, managers, officers, employees, and/or
agents of such limited liability company shall not be personally liable and no
member, manager, officer, employee, or agent of Landlord shall be sued or named
as a party in any suit or action, or service of process be made against any
member, manager, officer, employee, or agent of Landlord, except as may be
necessary to secure jurisdiction of the corporation. No partner, shareholder,
director, member, manager, employee, or agent of Landlord shall be required to
answer or otherwise plead to any service of process and no judgment will be
taken or writ of execution levied against any partner, shareholder, director,
member, manager, employee, or agent of Landlord.

31.3 Each of the covenants and agreements of this Article 31
shall be applicable to any covenant or agreement either expressly contained in
this Lease or imposed by statute or by common law.


33

32. CONTROL BY LANDLORD.
--------------------

32.1 Landlord reserves full control over the Project to the
extent not inconsistent with Tenant's quiet enjoyment and use of Premises. This
reservation includes the right to establish ownership of the Building separate
from fee title to the real property underlying the Building, to divide the
Project into more than one lot, and to construct other buildings or improvements
on the real property, provided Tenant's quiet enjoyment of the Premises is not
affected. Tenant shall, should Landlord so request, promptly join with Landlord
in execution of such documents as may be appropriate to assist Landlord to
implement any such action provided Tenant need not execute any document which is
of a nature wherein liability is created in Tenant or if by reason of the terms
of such document Tenant will be deprived of the quiet enjoyment and use of the
Premises as granted by this Lease.

32.2 Landlord reserves the right to enter the Premises, and to
cause its contractors to enter the Premises, upon reasonable prior written
notice to Tenant, to maintain, repair or replace mechanical (HVAC), electrical,
plumbing, sprinkler and other systems and equipment, and to install
improvements, within the Premises or within adjoining premises (including access
through the Premises to areas of the Building above and below the Premises).
Tenant acknowledges that because of the design and configuration of the
Building, and the nature of the Building as a multi-tenant biotech facility,
that temporary access through the Premises to other areas of the Building will
be reasonably necessary from time to time, and that such access may interfere
with Tenant's quiet enjoyment of the Premises; provided, however, that such
interference shall not materially interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy of
the Premises. There shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability of Landlord
by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant's business arising from
the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements to adjoining premises
unless such injury or interference is unreasonable and is the result of
Landlord's grossly negligent or willful act or omission.


33. QUIET ENJOYMENT.
----------------

33.1 So long as Tenant is not in default, Landlord covenants
that Landlord or anyone acting through or under Landlord will not disturb
Tenant's occupancy of the Premises except as permitted by the provisions of this
Lease and that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to enforce the lease
obligations of tenants of the balance of the Building and Project to the extent
they might otherwise disturb Tenant's occupancy.


34. QUITCLAIM DEED.
---------------

34.1 Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord on the
expiration or termination of this Lease, immediately on Landlord's request, a
quitclaim deed to the Premises and Project or other document in recordable form
suitable to evidence of record termination of this Lease.

34

35. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT.
-----------------------------

35.1 This lease shall be subject to and subordinate to the
lien of any mortgage or deed of trust now or hereafter in force against the
Project and Building of which the Premises are a part, and to all advances made
or hereafter to be made upon the security thereof without the necessity of the
execution and delivery of any further instruments on the part of Tenant to
effectuate such subordination. However, if any such mortgagee or beneficiary so
elects at any time prior to or following a default by Tenant, this Lease shall
be deemed prior in lien to any such mortgage or deed of trust regardless of date
and Tenant will execute a statement in writing to such effect at Landlord's
request in a form reasonably satisfactory to Tenant

35.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall execute and
deliver upon demand such further instrument or instruments evidencing such
subordination of this Lease to the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust as
may be required by Landlord, provided that the lienholder, beneficiary, or
mortgagee concurrently therewith executes and delivers to Tenant a
non-disturbance agreement in recordable form.

35.3 In the event any proceedings are brought for foreclosure,
or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed
of trust made by the Landlord covering the Premises, the Tenant shall at the
election of the purchaser at such foreclosure or sale attorn to the purchaser
upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such purchaser as the Landlord
under this Lease in accordance with the terms of the non-disturbance Agreement.

36. SURRENDER.
----------

36.1 No surrender of possession of any part of the Premises
shall release Tenant from any of its obligations hereunder unless accepted by
Landlord.

36.2 The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant
shall not work a merger, unless Landlord consents, and shall, at the option of
Landlord, operate as an assignment to it of any or all subleases or
subtenancies.

37. WAIVER AND MODIFICATION.
------------------------

37.1 No provision of this Lease may be modified, amended or
added to except by an agreement in writing executed by Landlord and Tenant. The
waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any breach of any term, covenant or condition
herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of
the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained.

38. HAZARDOUS MATERIAL.
-------------------

38.1 During the term, Tenant, at its sole cost, shall comply
with all federal, state and local laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, regulations
and orders relating to the receiving, handling, use, storage, accumulation,
transportation, generation, spillage, migration, discharge, release and disposal
of Hazardous Material (as defined below) in or about the Premises. Tenant shall


35

not cause or permit any Hazardous Material to be brought upon, kept or used in
or about the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, invitees or
subtenants, in a manner or for a purpose prohibited by any federal, state or
local agency or authority. The accumulation of Hazardous Material shall be in
approved containers and removed from the Premises by duly licensed carriers.

38.2 Tenant shall immediately provide Landlord with telephonic
notice, which shall promptly be confirmed by written notice, of any and all
spillage, discharge, release and disposal of Hazardous Material onto or within
the Premises, including the soils and subsurface waters thereof, which by law
must be reported to any federal, state or local agency, and any injuries or
damages resulting directly or indirectly therefrom. Further, Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord each and every notice or order, when said order or notice
identifies a violation which may have the potential to adversely impact the
Premises, received from any federal, state or local agency concerning Hazardous
Material and the possession, use and/or accumulation thereof promptly upon
receipt of each such notice or order by Tenant. Landlord shall have the right,
upon reasonable notice, to inspect and copy each and every notice or order
received from any federal, state or local agency concerning Hazardous Material
and the possession, use and/or accumulation thereof.

38.3 Tenant shall be responsible for and shall indemnify,
protect, defend and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord's Agents from any and
all liability, damages, injuries, causes of action, claims, judgments, costs,
penalties, fines, losses, and expenses which arise during or after the term of
this Lease and which result from Tenant's (or from Tenant's Agents, assignees,
subtenants, employees, agents, contractors, licensees, or invitees) receiving,
handling, use, storage, accumulation, transportation, generation, spillage,
migration, discharge, release or disposal of Hazardous Material in, upon or
about the Premises, including without limitation (i) diminution in value of the
Premises or any portion of the Project, (ii) damages for the loss or restriction
on use of any portion or amenity of the Premises or Project, (iii) damages
arising from any adverse impact on marketing of space in the Premises or the
Project, (iv) damages and the costs of remedial work to other property in the
vicinity of the Project owned by Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord, and (v)
reasonable consultant fees, expert fees, and attorneys' fees. Landlord shall be
responsible for and shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless Tenant on
the same basis as above for any claims which result from Landlord's or from
Landlord's Agents receiving, handling, use, storage, accumulation,
transportation, generation, spillage, migration, discharge, release or disposal
of Hazardous Material in, upon or about the Premises or any Hazardous Material
at the Project existing prior to the Term Commencement Date.

38.4 The indemnification of Landlord and Landlord's Agents by
Tenant pursuant to the preceding Section 39.3 includes, without limiting the
generality of Section 39.3, reasonable costs incurred in connection with any
investigation of site conditions or any cleanup, remedial, removal or
restoration work required by any federal, state or local governmental agency or
political subdivision because of Hazardous Material present in the soil,
subsoil, ground water, or elsewhere on, under or about the Premises, or on,
under or about any other property in the vicinity of the Project owned by
Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord, to the extent caused by Tenant. Without
limiting the foregoing, if the presence of any Hazardous Material on the
Premises caused or permitted by Tenant results in any contamination of the
Premises, or underlying soil or groundwater, Tenant shall promptly take all
actions at its sole expense as are necessary to return the Premises to that


36

condition required by applicable law as applied by any government entity with
proper jurisdiction with regard thereto, provided that Landlord's approval of
such action shall first be obtained, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, except that Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord's prior
approval of any action of an emergency nature reasonably required or any action
mandated by a governmental authority, but Tenant shall give Landlord prompt
notice thereof.

38.5 Landlord acknowledges that it is not the intent of this
Article 39 to prohibit Tenant from operating its business as described in
Article 10 or to unreasonably interfere with the operation of Tenant's business.
Tenant may operate its business according to the custom of the industry so long
as the use or presence of Hazardous Material is strictly and properly monitored
according to all applicable governmental requirements. Any approval or consent
required by this Section 39.5 shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed.

38.6 As a material inducement to Landlord to allow Tenant to
use Hazardous Material in connection with its business, Tenant agrees to provide
to Landlord a list identifying each type of Hazardous Material to be present in
or about the Premises and setting forth all governmental approvals or permits
required in connection with the presence of Hazardous Material in or about the
Premises ("HAZARDOUS MATERIAL INVENTORY"). Tenant shall deliver a Hazardous
Material Inventory to Landlord no later than twenty (20) days (i) prior to the
occupancy of any portion of the Premises or the placement of equipment anywhere
on the Project, (ii) prior to any increase in the types or amounts of Hazardous
Material, (iii) after a request of Landlord reasonably required for purposes of
monitoring the Project, and (iv) prior to the initiation by Tenant of any
changes in the Premises or elsewhere on the Project which involve any increase
in the types or amounts of Hazardous Material, and shall deliver a Hazardous
Material Inventory to Landlord in any event annually no later than December 31
of each year. For each type of Hazardous Material listed, the Hazardous Material
Inventory shall include the (i) chemical name; (ii) material state (solid,
liquid, gas, cryogen); (iii) concentration; (iv) storage amount and storage
condition (cabinets or no cabinets); (v) use amount and use condition (open use
or closed use); (vi) location (room number/identification); and (vii) chemical
abstract service (CAS) number, if known. In the event that Tenant's Hazardous
Material Inventory indicates non-compliance with this Lease or applicable
building and fire code requirements, Tenant shall at its expense diligently take
steps to bring its storage and use of Hazardous Material into compliance.

38.7 Tenant further agrees to make available to Landlord, upon
Landlord's reasonable request, true and correct copies of the following
documents ("HAZARDOUS MATERIAL DOCUMENTS"): governmental approvals or permits
required in connection with the presence of Hazardous Material on the Premises;
a copy of the Hazardous Material business plan prepared pursuant to Health and
Safety Code Section 25500 et seq.; documents relating to the handling, storage,
disposal and emission of Hazardous Material, including: permits; approvals;
reports and correspondence; notice of violations of any laws; plans relating to
the installation of any storage tanks to be installed in or under the Premises
(provided said installation of tanks shall be permitted only after Landlord has
given Tenant its written consent to do so, which consent may not be unreasonably
withheld); and all closure plans or any other documents required by any and all
federal, state and local governmental agencies and authorities for any storage
tanks installed in, on or about the Premises for the closure of any such tanks.
Tenant shall not be required, however, to provide Landlord with that portion of
any document which contains information of a proprietary nature and which, in


37

and of itself, does not contain a reference to any Hazardous Material which is
not otherwise identified to Landlord in such documentation, unless any such
Hazardous Material Document names Landlord as an "owner" or "operator" of the
facility in which Tenant is conducting its business. It is not the intent of
this subsection to provide Landlord with information which could be detrimental
to Tenant's business should such information become possessed by Tenant's
competitors. Landlord shall treat all information furnished by Tenant to
Landlord pursuant to this Article 39 as confidential and shall not disclose such
information to any person or entity, except as provided in this Article 39,
without Tenant's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, except as required by law.

38.8 Notwithstanding other provisions of this Article 39, it
shall be a default under this Lease, and Landlord shall have the right to
terminate the Lease and/or pursue its other remedies under Article 24, in the
event that (i) Tenant's use of the Premises for the generation, storage, use,
treatment or disposal of Hazardous Material is in a manner or for a purpose
prohibited by applicable law unless Tenant is diligently pursuing compliance
with such law, (ii) Tenant has been required by any governmental authority to
take remedial action in connection with Hazardous Material contaminating the
Premises if the contamination resulted from Tenant's action or use of the
Premises, unless Tenant is diligently pursuing compliance with such requirement,
or (iii) Tenant is subject to an enforcement order issued by any governmental
authority in connection with Tenant's use, disposal or storage of a Hazardous
Material on the Premises, unless Tenant is diligently seeking compliance with
such enforcement order.

38.9 Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 25, if any
anticipated use of the Premises by a proposed assignee or subtenant involves the
generation or storage, use, treatment or disposal of Hazardous Material and (i)
the proposed assignee or sublessee has been required by any governmental
authority to take remedial action in connection with Hazardous Material
contaminating a property if the contamination resulted from such party's action
or use of the property in question and has failed to take such action, or (ii)
the proposed assignee or sublessee is subject to a final, unappealable
enforcement order issued by any governmental authority in connection with such
party's use, disposal or storage of Hazardous Material of a type such proposed
assignee or sublessee intends to use in the Premises and shall have failed to
comply with such order, it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold
its consent to an assignment or subletting to such proposed assignee or
sublessee.

38.10 Landlord represents that, to the best of its knowledge,
as of the date of this Lease, there is no Hazardous Material on the Premises.
Landlord shall provide Tenant with a current Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment, and any current Phase II Environmental Site Assessment recommended
therein, at the time of the completion of the current renovation of the Project
to a biotech facility. Should the environmental site assessment(s) disclose the
presence of Hazardous Material beyond legally permissible levels, Landlord shall
correct the deficiencies to Tenant's reasonable satisfaction and shall cause
updates to the environmental site assessment(s) to be issued reflecting the
remedy. The environmental site assessment(s) and all updates thereto are
hereinafter referred to as the "BASE LINE REPORT," and shall be deemed
conclusive as to the condition of the Premises, unless, within ninety (90) days
of receipt, Tenant causes an inspection of its own to be conducted, which
inspection discloses the presence of Hazardous Material materially different
from that disclosed in the Base Line Report.

38

38.11 At any time prior to the expiration or earlier
termination of the term of the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to enter
upon the Premises, upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant, at all reasonable
times and at reasonable intervals in order to conduct appropriate tests
regarding the presence, use and storage of Hazardous Material, and to inspect
Tenant's records with regard thereto. Tenant will pay the reasonable costs of
any such test which demonstrates that contamination in excess of permissible
levels has occurred and such contamination was caused by Tenant's use of the
Premises during the term of the Lease. Tenant shall correct any deficiencies
identified in any such tests in accordance with its obligations under this
Article 39 to the extent the result of Tenant's use of the Premises during the
term of this Lease.

38.12 Tenant shall at its own expense cause an environmental
site assessment of the Premises to be conducted and a report thereof delivered
to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, such report
to be as complete and broad in scope as is necessary to identify any impact on
the Premises Tenant's operations might have had (hereinafter referred to as the
"EXIT REPORT"). Tenant shall correct any deficiencies identified in the Exit
Report in accordance with its obligations under this Article 39 prior to the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. This Article 39 is the
exclusive provision in this Lease regarding clean-up, repairs or maintenance
arising from receiving, handling, use, storage, accumulation, transportation,
generation, spillage, migration, discharge, release or disposal of Hazardous
Material in, upon or about the Premises, and the provisions of Articles 7, 10,
18, and 20 shall not apply thereto.

38.13 Tenant's obligations under this Article 39 shall survive
the termination of the Lease.

38.14 As used herein, the term "HAZARDOUS MATERIAL" means any
hazardous or toxic substance, material or waste which is or becomes regulated by
any local governmental authority, the State of California or the United States
Government. The term "Hazardous Material" includes, without limitation, any
material or substance which is (i) defined as a "hazardous waste," "extremely
hazardous waste" or "restricted hazardous waste" under Sections 25515, 25117 or
25122.7, or listed pursuant to Section 25140, of the California Health and
Safety Code, Division 20, Chapter 6.5 (Hazardous Waste Control Law), (ii)
defined as a "hazardous substance" under Section 25316 of the California Health
and Safety Code, Division 2, Chapter 6.8 (Carpenter-Presly-Tanner Hazardous
Substance Account Act), (iii) defined as a "hazardous material," hazardous
substance" or "hazardous waste" under Section 25501 of the California Health and
Safety Code, Division 20, Chapter 6.95 (Hazardous Substances), (v) petroleum,
(vi) asbestos, (vii) listed under Article 9 and defined as hazardous or
extremely hazardous pursuant to Article 11 of Title 22 of the California
Administrative Code, Division 4, Chapter 20, (viii) designated as a "hazardous
substance" pursuant to Section 311 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act
(33 U.S.C. Section 1317), (ix) defined as a "hazardous waste" pursuant to
Section 1004 of the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C.
Section 6901, et. seq. (42 U.S.C. Section 6903), or (x) defined as a "hazardous
substance" pursuant to Section 101 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response
Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et. seq. (42 U.S.C.
Section 9601).

39.7 SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Lease which shall
prove to be invalid, void, or illegal in no way affects, impairs or invalidates
any other provision hereof, and such other provisions shall remain in full force

Tenant's stated use of the Premises shall be determined by any government agency
having jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, this Lease, effective as of

FITNESS CENTER WAIVER OF LIABILITY
----------------------------------


SAN DIEGO SCIENCE CENTER LLC, a California limited liability company
(the "OWNER"), the owner of the building (the "BUILDING") at 3030 Bunker Hill
Street, San Diego, California, grants to employees of tenants of the Building
the right to use and enjoy the fitness facilities and equipment located in the
Building on the terms and conditions of this waiver (this "WAIVER") and
otherwise in accordance with such other rules and regulations which Owner may
from time to time adopt.

1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK. The undersigned understands that fitness
activities, especially strength and aerobic training, involve a potential risk
for physical injury and related damages. The undersigned understands that Owner
does not manufacture the fitness and other equipment used in the fitness center,
but purchases and/or leases the equipment from third parties. The undersigned
acknowledges that Owner will provide no supervision of his/her use of the
fitness facilities and equipment and other fitness activities in the fitness
center, and that he/she will be solely responsible for his/her safe and
appropriate use of the facility and equipment. The undersigned therefore
expressly agrees to assume the risk that he/she may suffer injury or damage as a
result of his/her use of the fitness facilities and equipment, and agrees for
himself/herself and on behalf of his/her personal representatives, successors
and assigns, that the Owner (including its members, managers, officers,
employees and agents) will not be liable for any damages nor injuries the
undersigned may suffer in or about the fitness center.

2. WAIVER OF LIABILITY. The undersigned further agrees to hold the
Owner and its members, managers, officers, employees and agents harmless from
any injuries or damages sustained by the undersigned or the property of the
undersigned and to indemnify the Owner and its members, managers, officers,
employees and agents from any claims, demands, actions, injuries, liabilities or
damages whatsoever, including attorneys' fees, which result, directly or
indirectly, from the use of the fitness facilities and equipment by the
undersigned. The undersigned agrees to release and discharge the Owner and its
members, managers, officers, employees, and agents from all such claims,
demands, actions, injuries, liabilities, and damages. The failure or refusal of
the undersigned to inspect the fitness facilities and equipment constitutes a
waiver of any objection, contention or claim that might have been based on such
an inspection.

3. LOSS, THEFT, DAMAGE. The undersigned agrees that neither the Owner
nor its members, managers, officers, employees or agents are responsible or
liable to the undersigned for articles damaged, lost or stolen in or about the
fitness facilities. The undersigned agrees not to store any valuable items in
lockers and to use the lockers solely for temporary clothing storage. The Owner
and its members, managers, employees and agents are not bailees and are not
responsible for protecting the valuables of the undersigned.

54

4. PHYSICAL CONDITION. The undersigned warrants that he/she is in good
physical condition and to the best of his/her knowledge has no physical
impairment which would prevent him/her from engaging in any physical
conditioning available in the fitness center and that he/she has no condition
which might be aggravated by the use of the fitness facilities or equipment. The
undersigned acknowledges that a complete physical examination by a medical
doctor prior to beginning any work out program or strenuous new activity is
recommended.

5. NO GUESTS. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that guests,
including family members, are not permitted in the fitness center and may not
use the fitness facilities or equipment under any circumstances. Use of the
fitness facilities and equipment is limited to employees of tenants of the
Building.

6. ATTIRE AND EQUIPMENT. The undersigned agrees to wear proper attire
when using the fitness facilities, and to wear a shirt and shoes in the fitness
facilities and all common areas of the Building. Attire must conform to
reasonable standards of decency and safety. Only equipment provided by Owner may
be used in the fitness center.

7. LOCKERS. Lockers are available for day use only on a first come,
first served basis. Locks, though recommended, are not provided by Owner.

8. DAMAGES. The undersigned agrees to pay for any damages to the
fitness facilities or equipment caused by the undersigned.

9. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Waiver is ruled invalid or
unenforceable as applied to any person or circumstance, all other provisions of
this Waiver shall remain valid and enforceable as applied to all other persons
and circumstances.

The undersigned acknowledges that he/she has read and understands the
terms and conditions of this Waiver and agrees to be bound by such terms and
conditions. The undersigned also agrees to read and comply with any other rules
and regulations governing use of the fitness facilities and equipment which may
be adopted or amended from time to time by the Owner and posted or otherwise
made available in the fitness facility or to the undersigned.
