ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The discussion and analysis included herein covers those material changes
in liquidity and capital resources that have occurred since December 31, 1997,
as well as certain material changes in results of operations during the three
and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998, and 1997, respectively.
The following narrative is written with the presumption that the users have
read or have access to the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which
contains the latest audited financial statements and notes thereto, together
with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations as of December 31, 1997, and for the year then ended. Therefore, only
material changes in financial condition and results of operations are discussed
herein.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
Effective January 1, 1998, Golden West adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS 130), which
requires that an enterprise report, by major components and as a single total,
the change in its net assets during the period from nonowner sources.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 133). This Statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. This Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters
of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company has not yet completed
a full assessment of the impact of this statement on its financial statements
and results of operations.

</TABLE>
As the above table shows, deposits represent the majority of the
Company's liabilities. The largest asset component is long-term mortgages held
as loans and mortgage-backed securities. The disparity between the repricing
(maturity or interest rate change) of deposits and borrowings and the repricing
of mortgage loans and investments can have a material impact on the Company's
results of operations. The difference between the repricing characteristics of
assets and liabilities is commonly referred to as "the gap."
<PAGE>
The following gap table shows that, as of September 30, 1998, the
Company's assets reprice sooner than its liabilities. If all repricing assets
and liabilities responded equally to changes in the interest rate environment,
then the gap analysis would suggest that the Company's earnings would rise when
interest rates increase and would fall when interest rates decrease. However,
the Company's earnings are also affected by the built-in reporting and repricing
lags inherent in the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index (COFI), which is the
index Golden West uses to determine the rate on the majority of its adjustable
rate mortgages (ARMs). The reporting lag occurs because of the time it takes to
gather the data needed to compute the index. As a result, the COFI in effect in
any month actually reflects the Eleventh District's cost of funds at the level
it was two months prior. The repricing lag occurs because COFI is based on a
portfolio of accounts, not all of which reprice immediately. Therefore, COFI
does not initially fully reflect a change in market interest rates.
Consequently, when the interest rate environment changes, the COFI lags cause
assets to initially reprice more slowly than liabilities, enhancing earnings
when rates are falling and holding down income when rates rise.

CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) requires insured institutions,
such as World Savings Bank, FSB (WFSB), and World Savings and Loan Association
(WSL), to maintain a minimum amount of cash and certain qualifying investments
for liquidity purposes. As of December 1, 1997, the current minimum requirement
was changed from a monthly to a quarterly calculation and is either equal to 4%
of the quarterly average of daily balances of short-term deposits and borrowings
or 4% of the prior quarter's ending balance of short-term deposits and
borrowings. For all other months during 1997, the minimum liquidity requirement
was calculated monthly and was equal to 5% of the monthly average of deposits
and short-term borrowings. WFSB's regulatory liquidity ratios were 20% and 11%
for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively.
WFSB's regulatory average liquidity ratio was 8% for the month ended September
30, 1997. WSL's regulatory liquidity ratios were 49% and 12% for the quarters
ended September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. WSL's regulatory
average liquidity ratio was 10% for the month ended September 30, 1997. The
increase in the average liquidity ratios for the quarters ended September 30,
1998 and December 31, 1997, as compared to the month ended September 30, 1997,
was due to a change in the revised OTS liquidity regulation which expanded the
assets qualifying for the calculation.
At September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December 31, 1997, the Company had
securities available for sale in the amount of $310 million, $586 million, and
$609 million, respectively, including unrealized gains on securities available
for sale of $274 million, $206 million, and $245 million, respectively. At
September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December 31, 1997, the Company had no
securities held for trading in its investment securities portfolio.
Included in the Company's investment portfolio at September 30, 1998
and 1997, and December 31, 1997, were collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs)
in the amount of $98 million, $82 million, and $71 million, respectively. The
Company holds CMOs on which both principal and interest are received. It does
not hold any interest-only or principal-only CMOs. At September 30, 1998, all of
these CMOs qualified for inclusion in the regulatory liquidity measurement.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
At September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December 31, 1997, the Company had
mortgage-backed securities (MBS) held to maturity in the amount of $8.3 billion,
$3.7 billion, and $3.8 billion, respectively, including Federal National
Mortgage Association (FNMA) MBS subject to full credit recourse to the Company
of $4.2 billion at September 30, 1998, $3.0 billion at September 30, 1997 and
$3.0 billion at December 31, 1997, and including $3.4 billion at September 30,
1998, of securities issued by a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (REMIC).
At September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December 31, 1997, the Company had
mortgage-backed securities available for sale in the amount of $125 million,
$197 million, and $157 million, respectively, including unrealized gains on MBS
available for sale of $6 million, $8 million, and $8 million, respectively. At
September 30, 1998 and 1997 and December 31, 1997, the Company had no trading
MBS.
During the second quarter of 1998, the Company securitized $3.9 billion
of mortgage loans into a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit. Securities
issued by the REMIC are being used as collateral for advances from the FHLB of
Dallas. The securities issued by the REMIC are classified as MBS held to
maturity.
<PAGE>
During the first and second quarters of 1998, the Company securitized
$501 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, of adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs)
into FNMA COFI-indexed MBS. During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company
desecuritized $856 million of FNMA COFI-indexed MBS in November and securitized
$1.0 billion of ARMs into FNMA COFI-indexed MBS in December. The Company has the
ability and intent to hold these MBS until maturity and, accordingly, these MBS
are classified as held to maturity. The FNMA MBS held to maturity are available
to be used as collateral for borrowings and are subject to full credit recourse
to the Company.
Repayments of MBS during the third quarter and first nine months of
1998 were $724 million and $1.2 billion, respectively, compared to $131 million
and $370 million in the same periods of 1997. MBS repayments were higher during
the first nine months of 1998 as compared to the first nine months of 1997 due
to an increase in total MBS outstanding and an increase in prepayments on the
underlying mortgages.
LOAN PORTFOLIO
LOAN VOLUME
New loan originations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1998, amounted to $2.2 billion and $5.7 billion, respectively, compared to $2.0
billion and $5.5 billion for the same periods in 1997. The 1998 loan volume was
similar to the 1997 loan volume due to a continued strong housing market,
especially in California, and lower interest rates causing more borrowers to
refinance. Refinanced loans constituted 42% and 43% of new loan originations for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to 30% and 32% for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997.
Loans originated for sale amounted to $291 million and $625 million for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, respectively, compared to
$48 million and $146 million for the same periods in 1997. The Company continues
to sell most of its fixed-rate originations.
The Company has lending operations in 26 states. The primary source of
mortgage origination is loans secured by residential properties in California.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, 63% and 62%,
respectively, of total loan originations were on residential properties in
California compared to 53% for the same periods in 1997. The five largest
states, other than California, for originations for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1998, were Florida, Texas, Colorado, Illinois, and
Washington with a combined total of 20% and 21% of total originations,
respectively. The percentage of the total loan portfolio (including
mortgage-backed securities with recourse) that is comprised of residential loans
in California was 66% at September 30, 1998 compared to 67% at September 30,
1997, and 66% at December 31, 1997.

<PAGE>
The Company continues to emphasize ARM loans with interest rates that
change periodically in accordance with movements in specified indexes. The
portion of the mortgage portfolio (including MBS) composed of rate-sensitive
loans was 92% at September 30, 1998 compared to 91% at September 30, 1997 and
91% at December 31, 1997. The Company's ARM originations for the third quarter
and first nine months of 1998 constituted 84% and 86%, respectively, of new
mortgage loans made in 1998 compared to 96% for the third quarter and first nine
months of 1997.
The weighted average maximum lifetime cap rate on the Company's ARM
loan portfolio (including ARMs swapped into MBS with recourse) was 12.64%, or
5.27% above the actual weighted average rate at September 30, 1998, versus
12.76%, or 5.43% above the weighted average rate at September 30, 1997.
Approximately $5.0 billion of the Company's ARM loans (including MBS
with recourse) have terms that state that the interest rate may not fall below a
lifetime floor set at the time of origination or assumption. As of September 30,
1998, $492 million of ARM loans had reached their rate floors. The weighted
average floor rate on the loans that had reached their floor was 7.74% at
September 30, 1998 compared to 7.76% at September 30, 1997. Without the floor,
the average yield on these loans would have been 7.17% at September 30, 1998 and
7.14% at September 30, 1997.
Loan repayments consist of monthly loan amortization and loan payoffs.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, loan repayments were
$1.5 billion and $4.6 billion, respectively, compared to $995 million and $2.6
billion in the same periods of 1997. The increase in prepayments for the first
nine months of 1998 as compared to the first nine months of 1997 was due to an
increase in refinance and home sale activity.
MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
The Company accounts for mortgage servicing rights in accordance with
SFAS 125. For the third quarter and first nine months of 1998, the Company
recognized gains of $5.8 million and $12.4 million, respectively, on the sale of
loans due to the capitalization of servicing rights compared to $1.1 million and
$3.2 million for the same periods in 1997. After amortization, the balance at
September 30, 1998 and 1997 of the capitalized servicing rights was $20.2
million and $10.3 million, respectively. The book value of Golden West's
servicing rights did not exceed the fair value at September 30, 1998 or 1997
and, therefore, no write-down of the servicing rights to their fair value was
necessary.

ASSET QUALITY
One measure of the soundness of the Company's portfolio is its ratio of
nonperforming assets (NPAs) to total assets. Nonperforming assets includes
non-accrual loans (loans, including loans swapped into MBS with recourse and
loan securitized into MBS-REMIC, that are 90 days or more past due) and real
estate acquired through foreclosure. No interest is recognized on loans 90 days
or more past due. The Company's troubled debt restructured (TDRs) is made up of
loans on which delinquent payments have been capitalized or on which temporary
interest rate reductions have been made, primarily to customers adversely
impacted by economic conditions.
The following table shows the components of the Company's nonperforming
assets and troubled debt restructured and the various ratios to total assets.

The decrease in NPAs during 1998 reflects the strong California economy and
housing market. The Company continues to closely monitor all delinquencies and
takes appropriate steps to protect its interests. For the third quarter and
first nine months of 1998, the Company's reserve for interest foregone on loans
90 days or more past due increased $738 thousand and $6 million, respectively,
as compared to increases of $3 million and $12 million for the same periods in
1997. Interest foregone on TDRs amounted to $203 thousand and $729 thousand for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $381 thousand
and $1.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997.

The Company provides specific valuation allowances for losses on loans
when impaired, including loans securitized into MBS with recourse, loans
securitized into MBS-REMIC, loans sold with recourse, and on real estate owned
when any significant and permanent decline in value is identified. The Company
also utilizes a methodology, based on trends in the basic portfolio, for
monitoring and estimating loan losses that is based on both historical
experience in the loan portfolio and factors reflecting current economic
conditions. This approach uses a database that identifies losses on loans and
foreclosed real estate from past years to the present, broken down by year of
origination, type of loan, and geographical area. Management is then able to
estimate a range of general loss allowances to cover losses in the portfolio.
In addition, periodic reviews are made of major loans and real estate owned,
and major lending areas are regularly reviewed to determine potential
problems. Where indicated, valuation allowances are established or adjusted.
In estimating possible losses, consideration is given to the estimated sale
price, cost of refurbishing, payment of delinquent taxes, cost of disposal,
and cost of holding the property. Additions to and reductions from the
allowances are reflected in current earnings.
The table below shows the changes in the allowance for loan losses for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.

DEPOSITS
Retail deposits increased during the third quarter of 1998 by $484
million, including interest credited of $270 million, compared to an increase of
$406 million, including interest credited of $244 million, in the third quarter
of 1997. Retail deposits increased during the first nine months of 1998 by $1.9
billion, including interest credited of $778 million, compared to an increase of
$1.3 billion, including interest credited of $708 million, in the first nine
months of 1997. Retail deposits increased during the first nine months of 1998
and 1997 primarily due to ongoing marketing efforts and competitive rates
offered by the Company on its insured accounts. In addition, the Company began
actively promoting market rate transaction accounts during the second half of
1997, which continued during the first nine months of 1998.
<PAGE>
Beginning in January 1997, the Company began a program to use
government securities dealers to sell certificates of deposit (CDs) to
institutional investors. There were no outstanding wholesale CDs at September
30, 1998 as compared to $864 million at September 30, 1997.

ADVANCES FROM FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANKS
The Company uses borrowings from FHLBs, also known as "advances," to
supplement cash flow and to provide funds for loan origination activities.
Advances are secured by pledges of certain loans, MBS-REMIC, and capital stock
of FHLBs. FHLB advances amounted to $6.9 billion at September 30, 1998, compared
to $7.2 billion and $8.5 billion at September 30, 1997, and December 31, 1997,
respectively. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company notified the FHLB of
San Francisco that it would pay off, before maturity, $2.9 billion of high-cost
advances and, as a result, incurred a $13 million pre-tax charge during the
first quarter of 1998 for the penalties associated with these prepayments.
During July 1998, the Company notified the FHLB of San Francisco that it would
pay off an additional $1.5 billion of high-cost advances before maturity and, as
a result, incurred an additional $8 million pre-tax charge during the third
quarter of 1998 for the penalties associated with these prepayments. See
Extraordinary Item discussion on page 30.
SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE
The Company borrows funds through transactions in which securities are
sold under agreements to repurchase (Reverse Repos). Reverse Repos are entered
into with selected major government securities dealers, large banks, and the
Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco, typically using MBS from the Company's
portfolio. Reverse Repos with dealers, banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank of
San Francisco amounted to $2.3 billion, $2.9 billion, and $2.3 billion at
September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December 31, 1997, respectively.
The Company uses accounting and reporting standards for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities in accordance
with SFAS 125 and SFAS 127. The Company adopted SFAS 127 on January 1, 1998 and
the adoption of SFAS 127 had no effect on the Company's financial condition and
results of operations.
OTHER BORROWINGS
At September 30, 1998, Golden West, at the holding company level, had a
total of $812 million of subordinated debt issued and outstanding. As of
September 30, 1998, the Company's subordinated debt securities were rated A3 and
A- by Moody's Investors Service (Moody's) and Standard & Poor's Corporation
(S&P), respectively. At September 30, 1998, Golden West had on file a
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the sale
of up to $300 million of subordinated notes.
WSL also has on file a registration statement with the OTS for the sale
of up to $300 million of subordinated notes and, at September 30, 1998, the full
amount was available for issuance. As of September 30, 1998, WSL had a total of
$100 million of subordinated notes issued and outstanding, which were rated A2
and A by Moody's and S&P, respectively. The subordinated notes are included in
WSL's risk-based regulatory capital as Supplementary Capital.
<PAGE>
WSL currently has on file a shelf registration with the OTS for the
issuance of $2.0 billion of unsecured medium-term notes, all of which was
available for issuance at September 30, 1998. WSL had no medium-term notes
outstanding under prior registrations at September 30, 1998, compared to $310
million at September 30, 1997, and $110 million at December 31, 1997. As of
September 30, 1998, WSL's medium-term notes had a preliminary rating of A1 and
A+ by Moody's and S&P, respectively.
During November 1996, WFSB received permission from the OTS to issue
non-convertible medium-term notes to institutional investors under rules similar
to Office of the Comptroller of the Currency rules applicable to similarly
situated national banks. As of September 30, 1998, WFSB had not issued any notes
under this authority.
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company's stockholders' equity increased by $288 million during the
first nine months of 1998. The increase in stockholders' equity was a result of
net earnings for the first nine months of 1998 and a $16 million increase in
market values of securities available for sale since December 31, 1997,
partially offset by the $44 million cost of the purchase of Company stock and
the payment of $22 million in quarterly dividends to stockholders. The Company's
stockholders' equity increased by $225 million during the first nine months of
1997. The increase in stockholders' equity in 1997 was primarily the result of
net earnings for the first nine months of 1997 and a $27 million increase in
market values of securities available for sale since December 31, 1996, which
were partially offset by the $48 million cost of the purchase of Company stock
and the payment of $19 million in quarterly dividends to stockholders.
Unrealized gains, net of taxes, on securities and MBS available for sale
included in stockholders' equity at September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December
31, 1997, were $166 million, $127 million, and $150 million, respectively.
During periods of low asset growth, the Company's capital ratios may
build to levels well in excess of the amounts necessary to meet regulatory
capital requirements. Golden West's Board of Directors periodically reviews
alternative uses of excess capital, including faster growth and acquisitions. At
times, the Board has determined that the purchase of the Company's common stock
is a wise use of excess capital.
Since 1993, through three separate actions, Golden West's Board of
Directors has authorized the purchase by the Company of up to 12.2 million
shares of Golden West's common stock. As of September 30, 1998, 9 million shares
had been purchased and retired at a cost of $425 million since October 1993, of
which 553,300 shares were purchased and retired at a cost of $44 million during
the first nine months of 1998. Dividends from subsidiaries are expected to
continue to be the major source of funding for the stock repurchase program. The
purchase of Golden West stock is not intended to have a material impact on the
normal liquidity of the Company.
WSL paid a $100 million dividend to Golden West in March, June and
August and $200 million in September 1998, for a total of $500 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998. Also, Golden West purchased at market from
WSL, and subsequently contributed as capital to WFSB, $100 million of
substandard loans during each of the three quarters of 1998, for a total of $300
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
<PAGE>
The Company has on file a shelf registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission to issue up to two million shares of its
preferred stock. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, may
have varying provisions and designations, and may be represented by depository
shares. The preferred stock is not convertible into common stock. No preferred
stock has yet been issued under the registration. The Company's preferred stock
has been preliminarily rated a2 by Moody's.
REGULATORY CAPITAL
The OTS requires federally insured institutions, such as WFSB and WSL,
to meet certain minimum capital requirements. Effective March 31, 1998, FIRREA's
old 3% minimum requirement for Core (or Leverage) Capital has been superseded by
a 4% minimum requirement under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA).
The following table shows WFSB's regulatory capital ratios and compares
them to the OTS minimum requirements at September 30, 1998 and 1997.

In addition, institutions whose exposure to interest rate risk, as
determined by the OTS, is deemed to be above normal may be required to hold
additional risk-based capital. The OTS has determined that neither WFSB nor WSL
has above-normal exposure to interest rate risk.
<PAGE>
The OTS has adopted rules based upon five capital tiers:
well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly
undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized. The determination of whether
an association falls into a certain classification depends primarily on its
capital ratios. As of September 30, 1998, the most recent notification from the
OTS categorized both WFSB and WSL as "well-capitalized" under the current
requirements. There are no conditions or events that have occurred since that
notification that the Company believes would have an impact on the
categorization of either WFSB or WSL.
The table below shows that WFSB's regulatory capital exceeds the
requirements of the well-capitalized classification at September 30, 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET EARNINGS
Net earnings before an extraordinary item (see extraordinary item
discussion on page 30) for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 were $335
million compared to net earnings of $261 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. Net earnings after the extraordinary item for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 were $323 million compared, to net earnings of
$261 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Net earnings for the
first nine months of 1998 included a gain of $13 million before tax from the
redemption of preferred stock which was called by the issuer. In addition to the
stock gain, net earnings increased in 1998 as compared 1997 as a result of
increased net interest income and a decrease in the provision for loan losses.
These increases to net earnings were partially offset by an increase in general
and administrative expense.
<PAGE>
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Golden West calculates Basic Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Diluted EPS
in accordance with SFAS 128. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings
for the period by the weighted-average common shares outstanding for that
period. Diluted EPS takes into account the effect of dilutive instruments, such
as stock options, but uses the average share price for the period in determining
the number of incremental shares that are to be added to the weighted average
number of shares outstanding. The Company's Basic EPS before the extraordinary
item and the preferred stock gain of $.13 per share for the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1998 were $1.87 and $5.71, respectively, as compared
to $1.59 and $4.57 for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1997,
respectively. Basic EPS after the extraordinary item and including the preferred
stock gain for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1998 were $1.79
and $5.62, respectively, as compared to $1.59 and $4.57, for the quarter and
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively. The Company reported Diluted
EPS (before the extraordinary item and the preferred stock gain) of $1.85 and
$5.65 for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to
$1.56 and $4.50 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997. Diluted
EPS after the extraordinary item and the preferred stock gain for the quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 1998 were $1.77 and $5.56, respectively, as
compared to $1.56 and $4.50 for the quarter and nine months ended September 30,
1997, respectively.
SPREADS
An important determinant of the Company's earnings is its primary
spread -- the difference between its yield on earning assets and its cost of
funds. The table below shows the components of the Company's spread at September
30, 1998 and 1997, and December 31, 1997.

The Company originates ARMs to manage the rate sensitivity of the asset
side of the balance sheet. Most of the Company's ARMs have interest rates that
change in accordance with an index based on the cost of deposits and borrowings
of savings institutions that are members of the FHLB of San Francisco (the
COFI). Nevertheless, the yield on the Company's ARM portfolio tends to lag
changes in market interest rates because of lags related to the index and
because of certain loan features. These features include introductory rates on
new ARM loans, the interest rate adjustment frequency of ARM loans, interest
rate caps or limits on individual rate changes and interest rate floors. On
balance, COFI lags and ARM structural features cause the Company's assets
initially to reprice more slowly than its liabilities, resulting in a temporary
reduction in net interest income when rates increase and a temporary increase in
net interest income when rates fall.
The following table shows the Company's revenues and expenses as a
percentage of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1998 and 1997, in order to focus on the changes in interest income between years
as well as changes in other revenue and expense amounts.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS
The Company enters into interest rate swaps as a part of its interest
rate risk management strategy. Such instruments are entered into solely to alter
the repricing characteristics of designated assets and liabilities. The Company
does not hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest rate swap activity decreased net interest income by $2 million
and $7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, as
compared to a decrease of $1.5 million and $3 million for the same periods in
1997.

<PAGE>
INTEREST ON LOANS
In the third quarter of 1998, interest on loans was lower than in the
comparable 1997 period by $81 million or 13.3%. The decrease in the third
quarter of 1998 was due to a $4.5 billion decrease in the average portfolio
balance partially offset by a four basis point increase in the average portfolio
yield. The decrease in the average loan portfolio balance was primarily due to
the securitization of adjustable-rate loans into MBS with full credit recourse
(see page 13). For the first nine months of 1998, interest on loans was lower
than in the comparable 1997 period by $14 million or .8%. The decrease was due
to a $689 million decrease in the average portfolio balance which was partially
offset by a ten basis point increase in the average portfolio yield.
INTEREST ON MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
In the third quarter of 1998, interest on mortgage-backed securities
was higher than in the comparable 1997 period by $86 million or 121.3%. The 1998
increase was due primarily to a $4.7 billion increase in the average portfolio
balance and a nine basis point increase in the average portfolio yield. For the
first nine months of 1998, interest on mortgage-backed securities was higher
than in the comparable 1997 period by $116 million or 53.3% due primarily to an
$2.1 billion increase in the average portfolio balance and a six basis point
increase in the average portfolio yield. The increase in the mortgage-backed
securities portfolio is primarily due to the securitization of adjustable-rate
loans with full credit recourse, as discussed on page 13.
INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS ON INVESTMENTS
The income earned on the investment portfolio fluctuates, depending
upon the volume outstanding and the yields available on short-term investments.
For the third quarter of 1998, interest and dividends on investments was higher
than in the comparable 1997 period by $22 million or 57.9%. The increase was
primarily due to a $1.5 billion increase in the average portfolio balance, which
was partially offset by a six basis point decrease in the average portfolio
yield. For the first nine months of 1998, interest and dividends on investments
was higher than in the comparable 1997 period by $55 million or 52.1%. The
increase was primarily due to a $1.2 billion increase in the average portfolio
balance, which was partially offset by a one basis point decrease in the average
portfolio yield.
INTEREST ON DEPOSITS
In the third quarter of 1998, interest on deposits increased by $13
million or 4.0% from the comparable period in 1997. The third quarter increase
was due to a $1.6 billion increase in the average balance of deposits, which was
partially offset by a 12 basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits.
In the first nine months of 1998, interest on deposits increased by $75 million
or 8.4% from the comparable period in 1997. The nine month increase was
primarily due to a $2.1 billion increase in the average balance of deposits,
which was partially offset by a three basis point decrease in the average cost
of deposits.
<PAGE>
INTEREST ON ADVANCES AND OTHER BORROWINGS
For the third quarter interest on advances and other borrowings
decreased by $2.4 million or 1.3% from the comparable period of 1997. The third
quarter decrease was primarily due to a $154 million decrease in the average
balance. For the first nine months of 1998, interest on advances and other
borrowings increased by $19 million or 3.6% from the comparable periods of 1997.
The nine month increase was primarily due to a $272 million increase in the
average balance and an eight basis point increase in the average cost of these
borrowings.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The provision for loan losses was $3 million and $9 million,
respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared
to $10 million and $44 million for the same periods in 1997. The lower provision
in 1998 was due to lower chargeoffs resulting from the strong California housing
market and declining nonperforming assets.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
For the third quarter and first nine months of 1998, general and
administrative expenses (G&A) was $88 million and $258 million, respectively,
compared to $83 million and $241 million for the comparable periods in 1997. G&A
as a percentage of average assets on an annualized basis was .89% and .87%,
respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 1998 compared to
.85% and .83%, respectively, for the same periods in 1997. Expenses are slightly
higher in 1998 because of the increase in mortgage activity, the ongoing
expansion of the Company's branch system, and the implementation of a variety of
technology initiatives including addressing the "Year 2000" computer issue (see
Year 2000 discussion on page 32).
EXTRAORDINARY ITEM
During the first quarter of 1998, the Company notified the FHLB of San
Francisco that it intended to retire before maturity, $2.9 billion of high-cost
FHLB advances. As a result, the Company incurred a $13 million pretax charge in
the first quarter of 1998 for the penalties associated with the prepayments. In
addition, in July of 1998, the Company notified the FHLB of San Francisco that
it intended to retire before maturity, an additional $1.5 billion of high-cost
FHLB advances. As a result, the Company incurred an $8 million pretax charge in
the third quarter of 1998 for the penalties associated with the prepayments.
Golden West has replaced the prepaid FHLB advances with new lower-cost
obligations.
TAXES ON INCOME
The Company utilizes the accrual method of accounting for income tax
purposes and for preparing its published financial statements. For financial
reporting purposes only, the Company uses purchase accounting in connection with
certain assets acquired through mergers. The purchase accounting portion of
income is not subject to tax.
Taxes as a percentage of earnings before the extraordinary item were
39.4% and 39.5%, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of
1998 compared to 39.7% for the same periods a year ago.
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
WFSB's principal sources of funds are cash flows generated from
earnings; deposits; loan repayments; negotiable certificates of deposit;
borrowings from the FHLB; investments and borrowings from its affiliates; debt
collateralized by mortgages, MBS, or securities; and the issuance of medium-term
notes. In addition, WFSB has other alternatives available to provide liquidity
or finance operations including borrowings from public offerings of debt, sales
of loans, issuances of commercial paper, and borrowings from commercial banks.
Furthermore, under certain conditions, WFSB may borrow from the Federal Reserve
Bank of San Francisco to meet short-term cash needs. The availability of these
funds will vary depending upon policies of the FHLB, the Federal Reserve Bank of
San Francisco, and the Federal Reserve Board. For a discussion of WFSB's
liquidity positions at September 30, 1998, and 1997, and December 31, 1997, see
the Cash and Investments section on page 12.
WSL's principal sources of funds are cash flows generated from
earnings; deposits; loan repayments; borrowings from the FHLB; debt
collateralized by mortgages, MBS, or securities; and the issuance of medium-term
notes. In addition, WSL has a number of other alternatives available to provide
liquidity or finance operations. These include borrowings from its affiliates,
borrowings from public offerings of debt, sales of loans, negotiable
certificates of deposit, issuances of commercial paper, and borrowings from
commercial banks. Furthermore, under certain conditions, WSL may borrow from the
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco to meet short-term cash needs. The
availability of these funds will vary depending upon policies of the FHLB, the
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, and the Federal Reserve Board. For a
discussion of WSL's liquidity positions at September 30, 1998, and 1997, and
December 31, 1997, see the Cash and Investments section on page 12.
The principal sources of funds for WFSB's and WSL's parent, Golden
West, are dividends from subsidiaries, interest on investments, and the proceeds
from the issuance of debt and equity securities. Various statutory and
regulatory restrictions and tax considerations limit the amount of dividends
WFSB and WSL can pay. The principal liquidity needs of Golden West are for
payment of interest and principal on subordinated debt securities, capital
contributions to its insured subsidiaries (including $466 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and $224 million for the year ended December 31,
1997), dividends to stockholders, the purchase of Golden West stock (see
stockholders' equity section on page 23), and general and administrative
expenses. At September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December 31, 1997, Golden West's
total cash and investments amounted to $728 million, $891 million, and $965
million, respectively. Included in the September 30, 1998 and 1997, and December
31, 1997 amounts is a $600 million loan to WFSB.
<PAGE>
YEAR 2000
The Company is aware of the system challenges that the Year 2000 has
created and currently has a plan in place to insure that all of the Company's
mission critical systems will be Year 2000 compliant by early 1999. The plan has
been developed in accordance with guidance set forth by federal banking
regulators in a series of jointly-issued policy statements. The Company has
completed an inventory and assessment of its systems. The Company is currently
in the process of testing and modifying or replacing systems that may be
affected by these Year 2000 compliance issues (Year 2000 Project.) Included in
this process are both information technology systems and other systems (e.g.
elevators, doorlocks) that could be affected by Year 2000 issues. The Company
has placed priority on information technology systems affecting its core
business of deposit-taking and lending. Testing of individual systems for the
ability to function during the Year 2000 has been started, with such testing to
be substantially completed by December 31, 1998. During the first quarter of
1999, the Company will commence integrated testing and ascertain that all
systems function together. All systems affecting the Company's core business are
scheduled to be Year 2000 compliant by June 1999.
While the Company believes it is doing everything technologically
possible to assure Year 2000 compliance, the success of the Year 2000 Project is
to some extent dependent upon vendor cooperation. The Company is requiring its
computer systems and software vendors to represent that the products provided
are or will be Year 2000 compliant and has planned a program of testing for
compliance. Such testing is included in the testing previously described in this
section. To date, the Company has no indication that its principal vendors or
their systems will adversely affect the Company's Year 2000 compliance efforts.
The Company currently estimates that it will cost approximately $19
million to make all of its computer systems Year 2000 compliant by the end of
1999. The Company will expense all costs associated with the Year 2000 Project
and expects to fund such costs through operating cash flows. The Year 2000
Project expense incurred during the first nine months of 1998 was $5 million.
Included in the $19 million are estimates for compensation of employees
dedicated to the Year 2000 Project, consultants, hardware and software expense
and depreciation of the equipment purchased as part of this process. However,
the Company's Year 2000 expenses are not expected to result in a dollar for
dollar increase in the Company's overall information systems expenditures
because the Company has dedicated a number of its existing resources solely to
the Year 2000 Project.
The Company believes that its Year 2000 Project will result in the
Company's systems functioning normally, without adverse consequences. While the
systems of others, with whom and through which the Company conducts business,
are not within the Company's control, the Year 2000 Project is intended to
provide the Company with sufficient advance warning that such systems will not
perform. In the unlikely event of a system problem, the Company has developed
contingency plans to address the potential that one or more systems might fail,
despite efforts to the contrary.
<PAGE>
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Golden West estimates the sensitivity of the Company's net interest
income, net earnings, and capital ratios to interest rate changes based on
simulations using an asset/liability model which takes into account the lags
described on pages 11 and 27. The simulation model projects net interest income,
net earnings, and capital ratios based on an immediate interest rate increase
that is sustained for a thirty-six month period. The model is based on the
actual maturity and repricing characteristics of interest-rate sensitive assets
and liabilities. For certain assets, the model incorporates assumptions
regarding the impact of changing interest rates on prepayment rates which are
based on the Company's historical prepayment information. The model factors in
projections for anticipated activity levels by product lines offered by the
Company. Based on the information and assumptions in effect at September 30,
1998, Management believes that a 200 basis point rate increase sustained over a
thirty-six month period would not affect the Company's long-term profitability
and financial strength.

Premises the Annual Basic Rent designated in Paragraph 1 (subject to Paragraph
3(g) above and to adjustment as ,hereinafter provided) in twelve (12) equal
monthly installments as described in Paragraph 1, each in advance on the first
day of each and every calendar month during the Term. In the event the Term
commences or ends on a day other dm the first day of a calendar month, then the
rental for such periods shall be prorated in the proportion that the number of
days this Lease is in effect during such periods bears to thirty (30), and such
rental shall be paid at the commencement of such periods. In addition to said
Annual Basic Rent, Tenant agrees to pay the amount of the rental adjustments as
and when hereinafter, provided in this Lease. Said Annual Basic Rent, additional
rent, and rental adjustments shall be paid to Landlord, without any prior demand
therefor and without any deduction or offset whatsoever except as otherwise
specifically provided herein in lawful money of the United States of America,
which shall be legal tender at the time of payment, at the address of Landlord
designated in Paragraph I or to such other person or at such other place as
Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. Further, all charges to be
paid by Tenant hereunder, including, without limitation, payments for real
property taxes, insurance, repairs, and parking shall be considered additional
rent for the purposes of this Lease, and the word "rent" in this Lease shall
include such additional rent unless the context specifically or clearly implies
that only the Annual Basic Rent is referenced.
(b) If Tenant shall exercise the First Extension Right, the Annual Basic
Rent for the Premises for the First Extension Term shall be adjusted, effective
as of the commencement of the First Extension Term, to ninety-five percent (95
%) of the Market Rate (defined below) applicable as of the commencement of the
First Extension Term.
(c) If Tenant shall exercise the Second Extension Right, the Annual Basic
Rent for the Premises for the Second Extension Term shall be adjusted, effective
as of the commencement of the Second Extension Term to ninety-five percent (95
%) of the Market Rate applicable as of the commencement of the Second Extension
Term.
(d) As used herein, "Market Rate" shall mean the annual amount per Rentable
Square Foot that a landlord of a first-class building within the Comparison Area
(i.e., first-class office space in the Lake Merritt and City Center central
business district areas of Oakland, California) with comparable vacancy factors
would accept, and that a tenant would pay, in lease or lease renewal
transactions for comparable space, for a comparable use, for a comparable period
of time, taking into. account all then relevant factors. 'Me Market Rate shall
be determined in the following manner: Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing
of Landlord's good faith determination of the applicable Market Rate no later
than ninety (90) calendar days prior to the date on which Tenant's obligation to
pay that Market Rate shall commence. Tenant shall have thirty (30) calendar days
to notify Landlord in writing if it disagrees with or disputes Landlord's
determination of the Market Rate. If Tenant does not give Landlord such notice,
Landlord's determination of the Market Rate shall be controlling. However, if
Tenant does give Landlord such notice, then such notice will be accompanied by a
statement of Tenant's good faith determination of the applicable Market Rate.
'Me parties shall, diligently and in good faith, negotiate in the ten (10) day
period following delivery of Tenant's notice in an effort to agree upon the
applicable Market Rate., If after such ten (10) day period, the parties have not
reached agreement upon the applicable Market Rate, the Market Rate shall be
determined in the following manner: Landlord and Tenant shall select one
appraiser each, who shall be an MAI qualified real estate appraiser with at
least five (5) years experience in the Comparison Area and who is familiar with
rental values and leasing practices in the Comparison
6
<PAGE>
Area. Each party shall deliver to the other party written notice of its selected
appraiser within five (5) business days following the parties' failure to reach
agreement on the Market Rate during the ten (10) day period described above. The
two (2) appraisers so selected shall appoint a third similarly qualified
appraiser (the "Arbitrator") within ten (10) calendar days of their appointment.
If the two (2) appraisers so selected shall fail to appoint an Arbitrator within
said ten (10) calendar day period, then within five (5) business days
thereafter, Tenant shall compile a list of five (5) similarly qualified
appraisers and deliver same to Landlord, from which Landlord shall select one
(1) appraiser to act as the Arbitrator within five (5) calendar days after
Tenant delivers such list; and if Landlord fails to timely select from said list
of five (5) appraisers, Tenant shall have the right to select one (1) of the
five (5) listed appraisers to act as the Arbitrator. If Tenant fails to provide
the list of five (5) appraisers as aforesaid, then Landlord shall have the right
to select the Arbitrator who shall be similarly qualified. If either Landlord or
Tenant fails to deliver to the other party notice of its selected appraiser
within the time periods herein specified, then the appraiser selected by the
other party shall act as the Arbitrator. Within (5) business days following the
selection of the Arbitrator, Landlord and Tenant shall each place in a separate
sealed envelope its final good faith determination as to the applicable Market
Rate, and shall deliver such envelope to the Arbitrator. In addition, Landlord
or Tenant may concurrently submit to the Arbitrator (with a copy to the other
party), any market data and additional information that such party deems
relevant to the Market Rate ("Market Data"); in such event, the other party may
submit a reply in writing within five (5) business days following delivery of
such Market Data. The Arbitrator, shall within five (5) business days following
receipt of the envelopes, review the parties' respective submissions. The
determination of the Arbitrator shall be limited solely to the issue of whether
Landlord's or Tenant's submitted determination of Market Rate for the Premises
is the closest to the actual Market Rate for the Premises, as determined by the
Arbitrator. The Arbitrator may hold a hearing if the Arbitrator, in his or her
sole discretion, determines that one is necessary, provided, however, that any
such hearing shall not last in excess of one (1) day. The Arbitrator shall,
within thirty (30) days of his or her appointment, determine whether Landlord's
or Tenant's submitted determination of Market Rate most closely approximates the
actual Market Rate, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant of such determination;
the Arbitrator may not propose a "compromise" Market Rate. The decision of the
Arbitrator shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant, and the
determination so selected shall be the applicable Annual Basic Rent payable
during the applicable Extension Term. Landlord and Tenant shall each pay any
fees for their respective appraisers. The fees of the Arbitrator shall be shared
equally by Landlord and Tenant.

(b) Procedure. Prior to the expiration of the Base Year and prior to the
expiration of each succeeding calendar year (or as soon thereafter as reasonably
practical), Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an estimate (the "Estimate") of
Operating Expenses for the immediately succeeding calendar year, the amount by
which such estimated Operating Expenses exceeds Base Operating Expenses (the
"Excess") and, thereafter during the calendar year to which such Estimate
applies, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant's Percentage of the estimated
Excess, in twelve (12) equal installments as and when Annual Basic Rent is due
hereunder. By the first day of March of each succeeding calendar year during the
term of this Lease, or as soon thereafter as reasonably practical, Landlord
shall deliver to Tenant a statement ("Actual Statement") wherein Landlord shall
certify the actual Operating Expenses and actual Excess for the preceding
calendar year, in reasonable detail. If the Actual Statement reveals a greater
actual Excess than was estimated by Landlord in the applicable Estimate and paid
by Tenant as provided above, then within thirty (30) days after delivery of the
Actual Statement by Landlord, but without waiving Tenant's Audit Right (as
defined in Subparagraph 6(c)), Tenant shall pay a lump sum equal to Tenant's
Percentage of said total actual Excess less the total of the monthly
installments of Excess which were paid by Tenant in the previous calendar year.
If in any calendar year, Tenant's Percentage of the actual Excess is less than
the
10
<PAGE>
amount actually paid by Tenant pursuant to this Paragraph 6(b) during the
preceding calendar year, then upon receipt of Landlord's Actual Statement, the
amount of such overpayment made by Tenant shall be credited toward
installment(s) of rent next falling due or Landlord may issue a check to Tenant
for such amount, or, if this Lease has been terminated, such amount shall be
credited against any amount which Tenant owes Landlord pursuant to this Lease
and, to the extent all amounts which Tenant owes Landlord pursuant to this Lease
have been paid, Landlord shall promptly pay such amount to Tenant. Any delay or
failure by Landlord in delivering any estimate or statement pursuant to this
Paragraph shall not constitute a waiver of its right to require an increase in
rent nor shall it relieve Landlord or Tenant of their respective obligations
pursuant to this Paragraph, except that Tenant shall not be obligated to make
any payments based on such estimate or statement until thirty (30) days after
receipt of such estimate or statement.
(c) Audit
(i) Provided that Tenant is not in default under the Lease as of the
date of Tenant's exercise of its Audit Right, within one hundred eighty
(180) days after receipt of an Actual Statement ("Audit Period"), Tenant
shall have the right ("Audit Right") to cause a recognized regional or
national accounting firm ("CPA") to inspect, examine and audit (at Tenant's
expense, except as set forth below) those books and records of Landlord
relating to the determination of Operating Expenses for the calendar year
for which such Actual Statement was prepared. It is expressly acknowledged
that such audit may not be conducted by a person or entity engaged in the
business of auditing building owners' books and records on a contingent fee
basis. Except as otherwise provided in this Subparagraph 6(c), the audit
shall be limited to the determination of the proper amount of Operating
Expenses payable by Tenant for the subject calendar year.
(ii) If the audit discloses that the amount of Excess billed to Tenant
was incorrect, the appropriate party shall, within thirty (30) days
following the date of such determination, pay to the other party the
deficiency or overpayment, as applicable.
(iii) Additionally, if and to the extent that, by virtue of Tenant's
exercise of the Audit Right and the subsequent audit as described herein of
an Actual Statement, it is determined that Landlord's inclusion or
calculation of any line item of Operating Expenses is in error (and
provided that such error resulted in an improper overcharge to Tenant
hereunder of at least $1,000.00), Tenant shall have the right to require a
similar audit of Landlord's books and records for the immediately preceding
two (2) -calendar years with respect only to the item of inclusion or
calculation which was determined to be in error as a result of Tenant's
exercise of the Audit Right. Tenant may exercise the right to so review
such portion of the immediately preceding two (2) years' Operating Expenses
by written notice to Landlord delivered within ten (10) business days
following determination and notice to Tenant of the error in inclusion
and/or computation giving rise to Tenant's right to so examine previous
years' books and records.
(iv) Tenant shall keep any information gained from any such audit
confidential and shall not disclose, or allow the disclosure of, any such
information to any other party except where Tenant is legally required to
do so (or in the case of litigation or where such disclosure occurs as part
of litigation between Landlord and Tenant).
(v) The exercise by Tenant of the Audit Right shall not relieve Tenant
of its obligation to pay, prior to the request for an inspection and
examination of Landlord's books and records. or any audit, all sums due
hereunder, including, without limitation, any disputed Operating Expenses.
(vi) Failure of Tenant to notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's
decision to exercise
11
<PAGE>
the Audit Right within one hundred eighty (1 80) days after receipt of an
Actual Statement shall be deemed an irrevocable waiver by Tenant of the
Audit Right as it regards that Actual Statement; notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant's failure to exercise the Audit Right with respect to the
Base Year within one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt of any Actual
Statement with respect to the Base Year shall not be construed as a waiver
of the Audit Right with respect to the Base Year, it being acknowledged
that Tenant may exercise the Audit Right with respect to the Base Year
concurrently with Tenant's initial exercise of the Audit Right, however,
Tenant may only exercise the Audit Right with respect to the Base Year on
one (1) occasion.
(vii) No prior waiver or waivers of the Audit Right shall be deemed to
constitute a waiver of the Audit Right as it shall regard future Actual
Statements, or amendments to prior Actual Statements. Landlord shall bear
all the costs associated with the Audit Right if it is determined that
Landlord's inclusion or calculation of any line item of Operating Expenses
is in error and provided that such error results in the improper overcharge
to Tenant hereunder of at least $2,000; otherwise, Tenant shall bear all
the costs associated therewith. If such audit demonstrates that Tenant has
overpaid Operating Expenses, then the amount of such overpayment shall be
credited or paid to Tenant in accordance with the provisions of
Subparagraph 6(b) above regarding overpayment of Tenant's Percentage of
actual Excess.
(viii) Nothing contained in this Paragraph 6(c) shall be construed or
interpreted to prevent Tenant from making informal, good faith inquiries of
the Building's management office, from time to time, regarding budgetary
issues, then-current projections regarding Operating Expenses and other
similar matters, and Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to
accommodate Tenant's periodic questions and requests for additional
information regarding the same.
(d) Determination Following Lease Expiration. Even though the Term has
expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is
made of Tenant's Percentage of Operating Expenses for the year in which this
Lease terminates, Tenant shall immediately pay any increase due over the
estimated expenses paid and conversely any overpayment made in said expenses
shall be immediately rebated by Landlord to Tenant.
7. Security Deposit. There shall be no security deposit.
8. Use. Tenant shall use the Premises for general office purposes and other
purposes reasonably incident thereto, and shall not use or permit the Premises
to be used for any other purpose without the prior written consent of Landlord
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall
not use or occupy the Premises in violation of any law, 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
any law. 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 the use or occupation thereof (provided that
the foregoing shall not be construed as a waiver of Tenant's right, if any, to
contest the same by appropriate proceedings). Tenant shall not do or permit
anything to be done in the Premises which will in any way obstruct or interfere
with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building, or injure them,
or use or allow the Premises to be used for any unlawful purpose, nor shall
Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises.
Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the
Premises and shall keep the Premises in first class repair and appearance.

<PAGE>
9. Holding Over. If Tenant holds over after the expiration or earlier
termination of the Original Term, First Extension Term or Second Extension Term,
as applicable, without the express written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall
become a tenant at sufferance only, at a rental rate equal to one hundred
percent (100%) of the Annual Basic Rent rate which is applicable to the Premises
immediately preceding the date of such expiration (subject to adjustment as
provided in Paragraph 6 hereof and ,prorated on a daily basis), and otherwise
subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein specified, so far as
applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such holding over continues for
more than sixty (60) days, effective as of the sixty-first (61st) day, the
rental rate payable during such hold over shall increase to one hundred
twenty-five percent (125%) of the Annual Basic Rent payable for the period
immediately preceding such holding over plus applicable Operating Expenses. The
acceptance by Landlord of rent after such expiration or earlier termination
shall not constitute a holdover hereunder or result in a renewal. The foregoing
provisions of this Paragraph 9 are in addition to and do not affect Landlord's
right of re-enter , y or any rights of Landlord hereunder or as otherwise
provided by law. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the expiration
of this Lease despite demand to do so by Landlord, Tenant shall indemnify and
hold Landlord harmless from all loss or liability, including without limitation,
any claim made by any succeeding tenant founded on or resulting from such
failure to surrender.
10. Taxes on Tenant's Property.
(a) Generally. Tenant shall be liable for, and shall pay at least ten (10)
days before delinquency, taxes levied against any personal property or trade
fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on
Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or
Landlord's property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the
inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade
fixtures of Tenant and if Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, pays the
taxes based upon such increased assessments, which Landlord shall have the right
to do regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper protest if
requested by Tenant, Tenant shall promptly following written demand repay to
Landlord the taxes levied against Landlord, or the proportion of such taxes
resulting from such increase in the assessment; provided that in any such event,
at Tenant's sole cost and expense, Tenant shall have the right, in the name of
Landlord and with Landlord's full cooperation, to bring suit in any court of
competent jurisdiction to recover the amount of any such taxes so paid under
protest, any amount so recovered to belong to Tenant.
(b) Taxes on Improvements. If the improvements in the Premises made after
the Commencement Date, whether installed and/or paid for 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 leasehold improvements in other space in the Building are
assessed, then the real property taxes and assessments levied against Landlord
or the property by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to
be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the
provisions of Subparagraph 10(a) above. If the records of the County Assessor
are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining
whether said improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than Landlord's
other improvements, such records shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant.
If the records of the County Assessor are not available or sufficiently detailed
to serve as a basis for making said determination, the actual cost of
construction shall be used.

11. Alterations.
(a) Tenant's Changes. Tenant may, at any time and from time to time during
the term of this Lease, at its sole cost and expense, make alterations,
additions, installations, substitutions, improvements ,and decorations
(hereinafter collectively called "changes" and, as applied to changes provided
for in this Paragraph, "Tenant's Changes") in and to the Premises, excluding
structural changes, on the following conditions, and providing such changes will
not result in a violation of or require a change in the Certificate of Occupancy
applicable to the Premises.
(1) The outside appearance, character or use of the Building shall not
be affected, and no Tenant's Changes shall weaken or impair the structural
strength or, in the opinion of Landlord, lessen the value of the Building.
(2) No part of the Building outside of the Premises shall be
physically affected.
(3) The proper functioning of any of the mechanical, electrical,
sanitary and other service systems or installations of the Building
("Service Facilities") shall not be adversely affected and there shall be
no construction which unreasonably or materially interferes with Landlord's
access to the Service Facilities or unreasonably or materially interferes
with the moving of Landlord's equipment to or from the enclosures
containing the Service Facilities.
(4) In performing the work involved in making such changes, Tenant
shall be bound by and observe all of the conditions and covenants contained
in this Paragraph 11.
(5) All work shall be done at such times and in such manner as
Landlord from time to time may reasonably designate.
(6) Tenant shall not be permitted to install and make a part of the
Premises any materials, fixtures or articles which are subject to liens,
conditional sales contracts or chattel mortgages.
(b) Procedure. Before proceeding with any change (exclusive of changes to
items constituting Tenant's personal property), Tenant shall submit to Landlord
mechanical, electrical and plumbing drawings and specifications for the work to
be done, which Tenant shall have prepared or caused to have been prepared using
consultants selected by Tenant and approved in writing in advance by Landlord.
Tenant shall include with such submission an estimate in reasonable detail of
the aggregate cost of such proposed change. Landlord shall have the right to
review all of Tenant's proposed changes in this manner regardless of whether
Landlord's approval of the changes, as provided hereinbelow, shall ultimately be
required in order to determine whether the proposed changes shall cost 'm excess
of the Alterations Ceiling, as defined herein below. No mechanical or structural
work, except for the moving of flexible ducts or diffusers, shall be done on the
Premises without Landlord's prior written approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Approval by Landlord of any
change requiring Landlord's approval may be conditioned upon Tenant's agreement
to remove, at Landlord's option, the proposed changes at the end of the Term.
Landlord's prior written approval shall also be required for all changes that
Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, shall determine shall cost in excess of
the Alterations Ceiling ("Alterations Ceiling"), which is hereby defined to be
five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) for changes involving, electrical work and
fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) for all other changes. These amounts shall
be adjusted every five (5) years for inflation by the percentage increase in the
U.S. Department of Labor's Consumer Price Index, San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose
area
14
<PAGE>
(all items)--all Urban Consumers(1982-1984=100) from the Commencement Date.
Landlord shall have ten (10) business days from the date on which the plans and
specifications for such changes (including Tenant's estimate of the aggregate
cost of such changes) are delivered by Tenant to Landlord in which to
determine-whether or not the proposed changes exceed the Alterations Ceiling,
and, if so, to deliver Tenant written notice approving or disapproving such
changes, which approval shall not be unreasonably ,withheld, conditioned or
delayed. If Landlord fails to deliver such notice to Tenant within ten (10)
business day period, Tenant shall have the right to submit a second notice to
Landlord, specifying, in bold face print at the top of the notice and on the
envelope containing such notice, the following: "NOTE: SECOND NOTICE DELIVERED
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SUBPARAGRAPH 11(b) OF LEASE - FAILURE TO RESPOND
WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS WELL RESULT IN DEEM[ED APPROVAL OF PROPOSED
ALTERATIONS". If, within five (5) business days following delivery of such
second (2nd) notice, Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant notice as to whether
the Tenant's Changes exceed the Alterations Ceiling and, if so, to notify Tenant
of Landlord's approval or disapproval of such Tenant's Changes, Landlord shall
be deemed to have approved such changes. If Landlord shall disapprove of any of
Tenant's plans, Tenant shall be advised of the reasons for this disapproval.
Tenant shall use contractors of its own choosing to make Tenant's Changes;
provided that Tenant shall choose those contractors which shall be approved in
advance in writing by Landlord, which approval Landlord will not unreasonably
withhold, condition or delay. If the Tenant's Changes shall not cost in excess
of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00), as adjusted for inflation as set forth
above, Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord for any of the costs Landlord
shall have incurred in reviewing the proposed Tenant's Changes; but if the
Tenant's Changes shall cost in excess of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00), as
adjusted for inflation as set forth above, Tenant shall pay Landlord, considered
as additional rent only for enforcement rights under this Lease, all of
Landlord's reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in reviewing and supervising
the construction of the proposed changes, which payment shall be due within
thirty (30) days of Landlord's (or Landlord's consultants') delivery to Tenant
of an invoice therefor setting forth Landlord's costs in reasonable detail.
(c) Compliance with Laws; Insurance. All Tenant's Changes and the
performance thereof shall at all times comply with (i) all laws, rules, orders,
ordinances, directions, regulations and requirements of all governmental
authorities, agencies, offices, departments, bureaus and boards having
jurisdiction thereof, (ii) all rules, orders, directions, regulations and
requirements of the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau, or of any similar insurance body
or bodies, and (iii) all reasonable rules and regulations of Landlord, and
Tenant shall cause Tenant's Changes to be performed in compliance therewith and
in good and first class workmanlike manner, using materials and equipment at
least equal in quality and class to the original installations of the Building.
Tenant's Changes shall be performed in such manner as not to unreasonably
interfere with the occupancy of any other tenant in the Building nor delay, or
impose any additional expense upon Landlord in the then-current projects of
construction, maintenance or operation of the Building. Throughout the
performance of Tenant's Changes, Tenant, at its expense, shall carry, or cause
to be carried, worker's compensation insurance in statutory limits, and general
liability insurance for any occurrence in or about the Building, of which
Landlord and its managing agent shall be named as parties insured, in such
limits as Landlord may reasonably prescribe, with insurers reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall furnish Landlord with reasonably
satisfactory evidence that such insurance is in effect at or before the
commencement of Tenant's Changes and, on request, at reasonable intervals
thereafter during the continuance of Tenant's Changes.
(d) Ownership). All alterations, decorations, additions or improvements
upon the Premises made by either party, including (without limiting the
generality of the foregoing) all wall covering, paneling and the like, shall,
unless Landlord elects otherwise, become the property of Landlord at the
expiration of the Term, and shall remain upon, and be surrendered with the
Premises, as a part thereof, at
15
<PAGE>
the end of the Term hereof, except that Landlord may by written notice to
Tenant, given prior to Tenant's performance of such work (to the extent that
Landlord has knowledge of the anticipated performance of such work), require
that Tenant, on or before the expiration or sooner termination of the Term,
remove all partitions, counters, railings and the like installed by Tenant, and
that Tenant repair any damage to the Premises arising from such removal or, at
Landlord's option, Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, 'Landlord's reasonable
costs of such removal and repair, subject to the provisions of this Paragraph
11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to remove any and
all built-in cabinet work, computer flooring, and any equipment relating to air
conditioning and fire protection, computer related motor generators, and UPS and
other communication systems that Tenant shall have installed in the Premises
("Specialty Items"); provided that Tenant shall repair any damage to the
Premises arising from the removal of the Specialty Items. If Tenant shall fail
to repair the Premises to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction, Landlord shall
have the right to repair the Premises itself. Tenant shall bear all the costs
associated with its removal of the Specialty Items from the Premises, including
the cost of repairing the Premises thereafter, regardless of whether Tenant or
Landlord shall have caused the repairs to be made.
(e) Tenant's Property. All articles of personal property and all business
and trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture and movable partitions
owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises shall be
and remain the property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant at any time
during the Term provided that Tenant shall repair any damage caused by such
removal. If Tenant shall fail to remove all of its effects from the Premises
upon termination of this Lease for any cause whatsoever, Landlord may, at its
option after giving notice to Tenant, remove the same in any manner that
Landlord shall choose, and store said effects without liability to Tenant for
loss thereof, and Tenant agrees to pay Landlord upon demand any and all expenses
incurred in such removal, including court costs and attorneys' fees and storage
charges on such effects for any length of time that the same shall be in
Landlord's possession, or Landlord may, at its option, after giving notice to
Tenant, sell said effects, or any of the same, at private sale and without legal
process, for such price as Landlord may obtain and apply the proceeds of such
sale upon any amounts due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord and upon the
expense incident to the removal and sale of said effects.
(f) Building Changes. Landlord reserves the right at any time and from time
to time without the same constituting an actual or constructive eviction to make
such changes, alterations, additions, improvements, repairs or replacements in
or to the Building (including the Premises if required so to do by any law or
regulation) and the fixtures and equipment thereof, as well as in or to the
street entrances, halls, passages and stairways thereof, as Landlord may deem
necessary or desirable; provided, however, that Landlord shall not make any
changes, alterations, additions, improvements or replacements ' that materially
and adversely alter the appearance or operation of the Building. Nothing
contained 'm this Paragraph 11 shall be deemed to relieve Tenant of any duty,
obligation or liability of Tenant with respect to making any repair, replacement
or improvement or complying with any law, order or requirement of any government
or other authority and nothing contained in this Paragraph 11 shall be deemed or
construed to impose upon Landlord any obligation, responsibility or liability
whatsoever, for the care, supervision or repair of the Building or any part
thereof other than as otherwise provided in this Lease.
12. Repairs.
(a) Tenant's Responsibility. Tenant shall, when and if needed and whenever
reasonably requested by Landlord to do so, at Tenant's sole cost and expense,
maintain and make all repairs to the Premises and every part thereof, to keep,
maintain and preserve the Premises in first class condition and repair,
excepting ordinary wear and tear, condemnation and damage due to casualty, the
repair of which is expressly the responsibility of Landlord hereunder. Any such
maintenance and repairs shall be
16
<PAGE>
performed by contractors selected by Tenant and approved in advance in writing
by Landlord (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed, provided that the parties agree that, without limiting the grounds
which might be "reasonable" for disapproving a proposed contractor, Landlord may
disapprove any contractor who is not union-affiliated and whose presence in the
Building might, in Landlord's reasonable determination, give rise to a labor
dispute, threatened strike, walk-out or ,similar action). Tenant shall upon the
expiration or sooner termination of the Term surrender the Premises to Landlord
in the same condition as when received, ordinary wear and tear, condemnation and
damage due to casualty excepted and except for all Tenant's Changes other than
those which Landlord has required Tenant to remove pursuant to Subparagraph
1l(d) above.
(b) Landlord's Responsibility. Anything contained in Subparagraph 12(a)
above to the contrary notwithstanding, Landlord shall repair and maintain all
portions of the Building other than space leased to tenants including but not
limited to the Common Areas, exterior and the structural portions of the
Building, exterior walls, foundations, floors, roof, roof membrane and exterior
windows as well as plumbing, heating, ventilating, air conditioning and
electrical systems installed or furnished by Landlord in first-class condition
and repair, unless such maintenance and repairs are caused in part or in whole
by the act, neglect, fault of or omission of any duty by Tenant, its agents,
servants, employees or invitees, in which case Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as
additional rent, the reasonable cost of such maintenance and repairs. Landlord
shall not be liable for any failure to make any such repairs, or to perform any
maintenance unless Landlord fails to commence such cure within ten (10) days
after written notice of the need of such repairs or maintenance is given to
Landlord by Tenant and thereafter diligently completes such cure. Except as
otherwise provided in this Lease, 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 Building or the Premises or in or to fixtures,
appurtenances and equipment therein. Tenant waives the right to make repairs at
Landlord's expense under any law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in
effect.
(c) Non-Base Building Facilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Subparagraphs 12(a) and 12(b) hereof, Tenant shall maintain and
repair at its sole cost and expense, and with maintenance contractors approved
by Landlord, all non-base building facilities, including executive lavatory,
shower and toilet facilities, wet bars and kitchen facilities, including all
plumbing connected to said facilities or systems installed by Tenant or on
behalf of Tenant or existing in the Premises at the time of delivery of
possession of the Premises to Tenant by Landlord. The provisions of this
paragraph shall not apply to the basic heating, plumbing and air conditioning
system provided by Landlord to all tenants of the Building.
13. Liens. Tenant shall not permit any mechanic's, materialmen's or other
liens to be filed against the Site or any portion of the Site nor against the
Tenant's leasehold interest in the Premises. Tenant covenants and agrees that
any mechanic's lien filed against the Premises or against the Building 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 twenty (20)
days after the filing thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant. Landlord shall
have the right at all reasonable times to post and keep posted on the Premises
any notices which it deems necessary for protection from such liens. If any such
lien is not discharged or bonded by Tenant within twenty (20) days after any
such lien is filed, Landlord may, without waiving its rights and remedies based
on such breach of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any of its
obligations, cause such liens to be released by any means it shall deem proper,
including payment in satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such lien. Tenant
shall pay to Landlord within thirty (30) days following notice by Landlord, as
additional rent, any sum paid by Landlord to remove such liens, together with
interest at the Interest Rate from the date of such payment by Landlord.
17
<PAGE>
14. Entry by Landlord. Subject to Landlord's agreement to minimize any
disturbance of Tenant's use of the Premises by exercise of the following rights,
Landlord reserves and shall at any and all times have the right (upon reasonable
advance notice [which may be telephonic] except in the case of emergency) to
enter the Premises to inspect the same, to supply janitor service and any other
service to be ,provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder, to submit said Premises
to prospective purchasers or tenants during the final eighteen (18) months of
the Term (accompanied, in such event, by a representative of Tenant, provided
Tenant in good faith uses reasonable efforts to cooperate with the scheduling of
any such entry), to post notices of nonresponsibility, to alter, improve or
repair the Building as provided above, and without being deemed guilty of any
eviction of Tenant and, except as set forth below, without abatement of rent,
and may, in order to carry out such purposes, erect scaffolding and other
necessary structures where reasonably required by the character of the work to
be performed, provided that the business of Tenant shall be interfered with as
little as is reasonably practicable. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages
for any inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, any loss of
occupancy (other than in the case of the loss of use of a material portion of
the Premises (i.e., 2,000 Rentable Square Feet or more) for a period in excess
of five (5) business days following notice from Tenant to Landlord of such loss
of use, in which event Tenant shall have the abatement rights described in
Paragraph 15(a) below) or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss
occasioned thereby. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all
times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and
about the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults and safes and other secured areas,
and Landlord shall have the means which Landlord may deem proper to open said
doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises, and any entry to
the Premises obtained by Landlord in good faith by any of said means, or
otherwise, shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a
forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction
of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, and any damages caused on
account thereof shall be paid by Tenant. Landlord hereby agrees to use its best
good faith efforts in the exercise of its rights under this Paragraph 14 to
minimize any disturbance of Tenant's use and possession of the Premises and to
provide as much notice to Tenant as may be reasonably possible prior to any such
exercise of Landlord's rights under this Paragraph 14.
15. Utilities and Services.
(a) Generally. Landlord agrees to furnish to the Premises during Business
Hours (as defined below) subject to the conditions and in accordance with the
standards set forth in the Rules and Regulations as may be amended in writing by
Landlord from time to time during the Term and delivered to Tenant, and
otherwise in a level comparable to the services provided in other first-class
office buildings in the Comparison Area, reasonable quantities of electric
current for normal lighting and fractional horsepower office machines, water for
lavatory and drinking purposes, heat and air conditioning required in Landlord's
reasonable judgment for the comfortable use and occupation of the Premises,
janitorial service in accordance with the specifications attached hereto as
Exhibit C, and elevator service by nonattended automatic elevators. Landlord
shall not be liable for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or
reduction of rent by reason of Landlord's failure to furnish any of the
foregoing when such failure is caused by accident, breakage, repairs, strikes,
lockouts or other labor disturbances or labor disputes of any character, except
as set forth below. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if (i)
Landlord ceases to furnish any service in the Building to Tenant in a period in
excess of five (5) consecutive business days after Tenant notifies Landlord of
such cessation (the "Interruption Notice"); -(ii) such cessation does not arise
as a result of an act or omission of Tenant, Tenant's assignees, sublessees,
employees, agents or representatives; (iii) such cessation is not caused by a
fire or other casualty (in which case, Article 19 shall control); (iv) the
restoration of such service is reasonably within the control of Landlord; and
(v) as a result of such cessation, the Premises or a material portion (i.e.,
2,000 Rentable
18
<PAGE>
Square Feet or more) thereof, is rendered untenantable (meaning that Tenant is
unable to use the Premise in the normal course of its business) and Tenant, in
fact, ceases to use the Premises, or a material portion thereof (i.e., 2,000
Rentable Square Feet or more), then Tenant shall be entitled to receive an
abatement of Annual Basic Rent payable hereunder during the period beginning on
the sixth (6th) consecutive business day of such cessation and ending on the day
when the service in question has been restored. If ,the entire Premises has not
been rendered untenantable by the cessation in service, the amount of abatement
that Tenant is entitled to receive shall be prorated based upon the percentage
of the Premises so rendered untenantable and not used by Tenant. If Tenant
requires or utilizes more water or electric power than is considered reasonable
or normal by Landlord, Landlord may at its option require Tenant to pay, as
additional rent, the cost, as fairly determined by Landlord, incurred by such
extraordinary usage. In addition, Landlord may install separate meter(s) for the
Premises, at Tenant's sole expense, and Tenant thereafter shall pay all charges
of the utility providing service. Any incandescent light bulbs used in the
Premises shall be paid for by Tenant; upon Tenant's request, Landlord's
personnel shall install incandescent light bulbs or other Building nonstandard
bulbs in the Premises; Tenant agrees to pay Landlord within thirty (30) days
after demand Landlord's cost for all such incandescent light bulbs installed or
other Building nonstandard bulbs and the reasonable cost of Landlord's work of
installation with respect thereto. Business Hours ("Business Hours") are hereby
defined to be Monday through Friday from 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. (excepting New
Year's Day, President's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving and Christmas).
(b) After-Hours HVAC. Landlord shall furnish heating, ventilation and
air-conditioning ("HVAC") during non-Business Hours; provided that Tenant's
written notice requesting such service shall have been delivered to Landlord
before noon on the business day when such service is required for that evening,
and by noon of the preceding business day when such service is required on a
Saturday, Sunday or holiday. Landlord's prevailing charge for supplying such
additional service shall be paid by Tenant which shall be Landlord's then
standard charge for providing such services including, without limitation,
reasonable administrative and maintenance costs associated with such after-hours
use; provided that such charge will not exceed the charges for similar services
generally applied by owners of first-class buildings within the Comparison Area.
Landlord's charges shall distinguish between the provision of such services
thereof when the chiller shall be on and when it shall be off. Landlord shall
bill Tenant on or before the last day of the month following the month in which
such charges are incurred, and shall submit with its invoice a tabulation of the
hours and the dates on which the overtime HVAC was furnished. Tenant shall pay
Landlord these charges, as additional rent, within thirty (30) calendar days of
receipt of the invoice therefor and such other data supporting the charges as
Tenant may reasonably request. If Landlord shall not have billed Tenant for HVAC
charges incurred during non-Business Hours within four (4) months after the end
of the Lease year in which Landlord claims the charges were incurred, Landlord
shall be conclusively presumed to have waived such charges.
(c) Standards. Except for day porter services provided by Tenant, all
cleaning and janitorial services for the Building and the Premises shall be
provided exclusively through Landlord in accordance with Exhibit C attached
hereto. In addition, Landlord shall regularly inspect and maintain the cooling
tower following the current practices of the American Society of Heating,
Refrigeration and Air-conditioning Engineers. Tenant shall use its best efforts
to agree upon and coordinate with Landlord a plan whereby Secured Areas, as
defined below, may be cleaned to the satisfaction of Landlord on a regular basis
in keeping with the standards for cleaning and janitorial services that shall be
provided throughout the rest of the Premises and the Building.

subject to the provisions of Paragraph 18(f) below, Tenant shall indemnify,
defend, protect and hold harmless Landlord from and ,against any and all claims,
liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees and disbursements) (collectively, "Claims"), arising from (i)
Tenant's use of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant's business or any activity,

any Claims to the extent the same arise from or are caused by the acts,
omissions, negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents,
contractors, employees or invitees. Tenant, as a material part of the
consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or
injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises from any cause whatsoever,
except (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 18(f) below) to the extent that
the same is caused by the acts, omissions, negligence or willful misconduct of,
or the breach of or default under this Lease by, Landlord or its agents,
contractors, employees or invitees.
(b) Indemnity by Landlord. To the fullest extent permitted by law, but
subject to the provisions of Paragraph 18(f) below, Landlord shall indemnify,

employees or invitees in connection with, or on or about, the Premises or the
Site, or any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Landlord,
its agents, contractors, employees or invitees in or about the Premises or the

acts, emissions, negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or its agents,
contractors, employees or invitees.
(c) Survival. The respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this
Paragraph 16 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease
with respect to Claims occurring or arising on or before the date of expiration
or termination.
17. Damage to Tenant's Property. Landlord or its agents shall not be
liable- for any damage to property entrusted to employees of the Building, nor
for loss of or damage to any property by theft or otherwise, nor for any injury
or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling
plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of
the Building or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein or from the
roof, street or sub-surface or from any other place or resulting from dampness
or any other patent or latent cause whatsoever except (and subject to the
provisions of Subparagraph 18(f) below) due to the negligence or willful
misconduct or reckless actions of Landlord, its employees, agents or
contractors. Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for interference with
the light or other incorporeal hereditaments. Tenant shall give prompt notice to
Landlord in case of fire or accidents in the Premises or in the Building or of
defects therein or in the fixtures or equipment.
20
<PAGE>
18. Insurance
(a) Tenant's Insurance. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense shall, during
the entire Term hereof, obtain, maintain and keep in full force and effect, the
following insurance:
(i) Property insurance including fire, extended coverage, vandalism,
malicious mischief and all risks (excluding earthquake and flood) coverage
upon property of every description and kind owned by Tenant and located in
the Building or for which Tenant is legally liable or installed by or on
behalf of Tenant including, without limitation, furniture, fittings,
installations, including tenant improvements and betterments, fixtures and
any other personal property, in an amount not. less than ninety percent (90
%) of the full replacement cost thereof. In the event that there shall be a
dispute as to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the
decision of Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord shall be conclusive.
(ii) Commercial General Liability Insurance, coverage to include
personal injury, bodily injury, broad form property damage,
premises/operations, owner's protective coverage, blanket contractual
liability, products and completed operations liability and owned/non-owned
auto liability, in limits not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000)
inclusive. Tenant's policy shall name Landlord, Landlord's property manager
and Landlord's mortgagees as additional insureds and shall contain the
following provision:
"Such insurance as afforded by this policy for the benefit of
Landlord shall be primary as respects any claims, losses or
liabilities arising out of the use of Premises by the Tenant or by
Tenant's operation and any insurance carried by Landlord shall be
excess and non-contributing. "
(iii) So-called "business interruption" insurance in such amounts as
will reimburse Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earnings attributable
to all perils commonly insured against by prudent tenants or attributable
to prevention of access to the Premises or to the Building as a result of
such perils.
(iv) Workers' Compensation insurance as required by applicable law.
(v) Any other form or forms of insurance as Tenant or Landlord or the
mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in form, in
amounts and for insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would
protect itself.
(b) Policy Requirements. All policies shall be taken out with insurers
acceptable to Landlord and in form satisfactory from time to time to Landlord.
Tenant agrees that standard certificates of insurance or, if required by
Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord, certified copies of each such insurance
policy, will be delivered to Landlord as soon as practicable after the placing
of the required insurance, but in no event later than ten (10) days after Tenant
takes possession of all or any part of the Premises. All policies shall contain
an undertaking by the insurers to notify Landlord and the mortgagees of Landlord
in writing not less than ten (10) days prior to any material change, reduction
in coverage, cancellation, or other termination thereof. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant shall be deemed to have taken out insurance sufficient under
this Paragraph 18 if Tenant shall decide to self-insure with respect to any and
all insurance required hereunder, subject to the following conditions: At all
times that the Tenant shall self-insure, Tenant shall be required to have a
consolidated net worth in excess of Five Hundred
21
<PAGE>
Million Dollars ($500,000,000) as shown on Tenant's most recent quarterly or
annual financial statements computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("Net Worth Floor Requirement"). Tenant shall give
Landlord copies of all of Tenant's quarterly reports and annual reports within
thirty (30) calendar days of their receipt by Tenant to permit Landlord to
confirm that Tenant satisfies the Net Worth Floor Requirement. If Landlord shall
ever discover, by whatever means, that Tenant shall have failed to satisfy the
Net Worth Floor Requirement at any time that Tenant shall have been
self-insured, Landlord shall have the right by written notice to Tenant to
require Tenant, as if Tenant had never had the right to self-insure, to perform
within ten (10) calendar days of receipt thereof all of the acts required of
Tenant by this Paragraph 18(b).
(c) Delivery of Insurance Proceeds. In the event of damage to or
destruction of the Building, if the Premises shall also have been damaged, then
Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord all of its insurance proceeds ("Related
Insurance Proceeds"), if any, relating to all alterations (but not to Tenant's
trade fixtures, equipment, furniture or other personal property of Tenant) in
the Premises. Notwithstanding the above, if such damage is of a nature entitling
Landlord to terminate this Lease, and if Landlord terminates this Lease, Tenant
shall not be required to pay to Landlord any portion ("Tenant's Portion") of
Related Insurance Proceeds that shall be attributable to the destruction of as
yet unamortized changes which Tenant shall have the burden of proving were built
out of Tenant's own separate and independently identifiable funds. The
amortization schedule that shall be used in determining, for the purposes of
this Lease, whether such work shall be "as yet unamortized" is the amortization
schedule that Tenant shall use in its financial books and records, which
schedule shall be kept in accord with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied; provided that in no event shall the schedule exceed
fifteen (15) years. If Landlord terminates this Lease pursuant to a right of
termination as provided in Paragraph 19 as the result of damage to the Building,
and if the Premises shall not have been damaged, then Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord, in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, the Premises itself
together with all Tenant's Changes; provided, however, that Landlord shall
reimburse Tenant for the amount of the as yet unamortized cost of Tenant's
Changes that actually were paid for by Tenant from its own funds less amounts
recovered by Tenant under its insurance policies referable to said Tenant's
Portion, as to which Tenant shall use best efforts to collect. Landlord
acknowledges that, under the Prior Lease, certain improvements to the Premises
existing as of the Commencement Date may have constituted Tenant's Changes which
were paid for by Tenant and may not have been fully amortized as of the
Commencement Date. For the purposes of this Subparagraph 18(c), any such
improvements shall also be considered (partially amortized, based upon the date
of completion of such improvements) Tenant's Changes hereunder.
(d) Landlord's Insurance. Landlord covenants and agrees that through the
Term it will insure the Building (excluding any property with respect to which
Tenant is obligated to insure pursuant to the provisions of Subparagraph 18(a)
above) against damage by fire and (only if the same is required by a first
mortgagee and is available at a commercially reasonable cost in light of the
terms of coverage and in light of the deductible) earthquake coverage, and
standard extended coverage perils and public liability insurance in such
reasonable amounts with such reasonable deductibles as would be carried by a
prudent institutional owner of a similar building in the San Francisco Bay Area
seeking to insure, among other things, coverage of the costs of repairs required
to be performed by Landlord pursuant to Article 19 below. Landlord may, but
shall not be obliged to, take out and carry any other form or forms of insurance
as it or the mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably determine advisable.
Notwithstanding any contribution by Tenant to the cost of insurance premiums,
with respect to the Building or any alterations of the Premises, as provided
herein, Tenant acknowledges that it has no right to receive any proceeds from
any such insurance policies carried by Landlord, although Landlord shall use
such proceeds in the repair and reconstruction of the Building and the Premises
unless the provisions of Subparagraph 18(c)
22
<PAGE>
above shall apply. Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on Tenant's
furniture or furnishings, or on any fixtures, equipment, improvements or
appurtenances of Tenant under this Lease; and Landlord shall not be obligated to
repair any damage thereto or replace the same except as otherwise provided in
Subparagraph 18(c) or in Paragraph 19.
(e) Compliance with Insurance Guidelines.
(i) Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which will
invalidate or increase the cost of any fire, extended coverage or any other
insurance policy covering the Building and/or property located therein and
shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations and requirements of the
Pacific Fire Rating Bureau or any other organization performing a similar
function. To Landlord's knowledge, Tenant's use of the Premises as of the
Commencement Date is not of a nature that would invalidate, or cause an
increase in the cost of, Landlord's insurance coverage. Tenant agrees that
it will not keep, use, sell or offer for sale in or upon the Premises any
article which may be prohibited by any insurance policy in force from time
to time covering the Building. In the event Tenant's occupancy or conduct
of business in or on the Premises, whether or not Landlord has consented to
the same, results in any increase in premiums for the insurance carried
from time to time by Landlord with respect to the Building, Tenant shall
pay any such increase in premiums as additional rent within thirty (30)
days after being billed therefor by Landlord. In determining whether
increased premiums are a result of Tenant's use or occupancy of the
Premises, a schedule issued by the organization computing the insurance
rate on the Building or the improvements within the Premises showing the
various components of such rate shall be conclusive evidence of the several
items and charges which make up such rate. Tenant shall promptly comply
with all commercially reasonable requirements of the insurance authority or
of any insurer now or hereafter in effect relating to the Premises.
(ii) If any insurance policy carried by Landlord, as provided by
Subparagraph 18(d) above, shall be canceled or cancellation shall be
threatened or the coverage thereunder reduced or threatened to be reduced,
in any way by reason of the use or occupation of the Premises or any part
thereof in violation of the Permitted Use by Tenant or by any assignee or
sub-tenant of Tenant or by anyone permitted by Tenant to be upon the
Premises and, if Tenant fails to commence to remedy the condition giving
rise to cancellation, threatened cancellation or reduction of coverage
within two (2) business days after notice thereof and diligent complete the
same; Landlord may enter upon the Premises and attempt to remedy such
condition and Tenant shall forthwith pay the reasonable cost thereof to
Landlord as additional rent. Landlord shall not be liable for any damage or
injury caused to any property of Tenant or of others located in the
Premises as a result of such entry. In the event that Landlord shall be
unable to remedy such condition, then Landlord shall have all of the
remedies provided for in this Lease in the event of a default by Tenant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subparagraph 18(e)(ii), if
Tenant fails to remedy as aforesaid, Tenant shall be in default of its
obligations hereunder and Landlord shall have no obligation to attempt to
remedy such default.
(f) Any other provision of this Lease notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant
mutually release and discharge each other and waive any rights of subrogation
accruing from all claims and liabilities in connection with property on, or
activities conducted in, the Premises or in the Building to the extent such
claims or liability is covered by insurance maintained by Landlord or Tenant, or
is required to be covered by insurance under this Lease. Each insurance policy
Landlord or Tenant maintains with respect to-the Premises or Property shall
include a waiver of the insured's rights of subrogation against the other party.

19. Damage or Destruction.
(a) Generally: Repair Obligation and Rental Abatement. In the event any
portion of the Premises, Common Areas of the Building or Building equipment or
systems serving the Premises ,(including all improvements made to the Premises
by Tenant) or the Common Areas (collectively the "Damaged Property") shall be
damaged by fire or other casualty, or by any other peril of any kind or nature
insured against and the Damaged Property can, in the opinion of the Landlord's
architect, be repaired within one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days from
the date of the damage, and neither party shall have terminated this Lease under
Subparagraph 19(b) nor have the right to do so, Landlord shall proceed
immediately to make such repairs as required by Subparagraph 19(c). This Lease
shall not terminate, but Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate abatement
of Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments payable during the period commencing
on the date of the damage and ending on the date the Damaged Property shall be
substantially repaired as aforesaid and the Premises shall be delivered to
Tenant. If Tenant shall reoccupy a portion of the Premises for the conduct of
business before the Damaged Property shall be substantially repaired, Tenant
shall pay the Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments allocable to such
reoccupied portion from the date of Tenant's reoccupancy. If the Premises would
have been substantially repaired but for delay caused by Tenant Delay (defined
below), Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments shall be payable from the date
the Premises would have been substantially repaired but for such Tenant Delay.
The extent to which Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments shall be abated
shall be determined by how many of the Rentable Square Feet that make up the
Premises shall have been rendered untenantable, unfit or inaccessible for use by
Tenant during this period. The Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments shall
not be abated if, through the acts or omissions of Tenant, its subtenant or
assignee, or its or their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents or
contractors, the Landlord (or any mortgagee or underlying or ground lessor)
shall be unable to collect all of the insurance proceeds (including rental
insurance) that would otherwise have been payable on account of the casualty; in
such case, any abatement shall be limited to rental insurance proceeds actually
received. When required by this Paragraph 19, the opinion of Landlord's
architect shall be delivered to Tenant within thirty (30) calendar days of the
date of damage. As used herein, the term "Tenant Delay" shall mean any delay
that Landlord may encounter in the performance of Landlord's construction
obligations herein solely or primarily because of any act or omission of Tenant,
Tenant's assignees, subtenants, or their respective agents, employees,
contractors or representatives, including, without limitation: (i) delay
attributable to the postponement of any such construction work at the request of
Tenant, or (ii) delay by Tenant in the submission of information or the giving
of authorization or approvals required with respect to any such work, or (iii)
delay attributable to the failure by Tenant to pay, when due, any amounts
required to be paid by Tenant (including any failure on the part of Tenant to
deliver Related Insurance Proceeds). No Tenant Delay shall exist unless and
until Landlord notifies Tenant of an act or situation which, if uncured, would
constitute Tenant Delay, and Tenant fails to cure such act or situation within
one (1) full business day from the date of Landlord's notice.
(b) Termination Rights. If (i) in the opinion of the Landlord's architect,
the Damaged Property cannot be repaired within one hundred and eighty (180)
calendar days from the date of the damage, or (ii) in the opinion of Landlord's
architect, the cost of repair would exceed thirty percent (30%) of the full
replacement cost of the Building, either party may terminate this Lease by
written notice to the other within sixty (60) calendar days from the date on
which the opinion of Landlord's architect shall be delivered to Tenant. Annual
Basic Rent and rental adjustments shall be apportioned as of the date of
termination and all prepaid Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments shall be
repaid.
24
<PAGE>
(c) Repaired Damages. In the event neither party shall exercise its option
to terminate hereunder or if neither parry has the right to terminate this
Lease, Landlord shall, with due diligence after Landlord's collection of
substantially all of the insurance proceeds receivable on account of the
casualty (including all Related Insurance Proceeds), repair, alter and restore
the Damaged Property as a complete architectural unit of substantially the same
proportionate usefulness, design and construction as existed ,immediately prior
to the date of the damage. In no event shall Landlord be required to expend on
such repair, alteration or restoration amounts in excess of the total net
insurance proceeds collected and retained by Landlord on account of the
casualty.
(d) Tenant's Second Termination Right. Notwithstanding anything in this
Lease to the contrary, if by operation of this Paragraph 19 Landlord shall
undertake but fail to repair and restore the Damaged Property as required by the
provisions of this Paragraph 19 and/or shall fail to deliver the Premises to
Tenant by the, Termination Date, as defined hereinbelow, Tenant may terminate
this Lease by written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days following the
Termination Date. In such event, this Lease shall terminate as of the date
specified in the notice; Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments shall be
apportioned as of the date of the damage; and Landlord shall repay all prepaid
Annual Basic Rent and rental adjustments. The "Termination Date" shall initially
be that date one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days from the date of damage;
provided that the Termination Date shall be postponed for so long as Landlord
shall be delayed in repair and restoration of the Damaged Property by reason of
Force Majeure (defined below) or Tenant Delay. All references to the Termination
Date shall be to the Termination Date as it may be postponed from time to time.
As used herein, "Force Majeure" is hereby defined to include embargo, war, fire,
flood, earthquake, epidemic or other calamity, act of God or of the public
enemy, governmental act (including, but not restricted to, any government
priority, preference, requisition, allocation, interference, restraint or
seizure, or the necessity of complying with any governmental order, directive,
ruling or request) or by any strike or labor dispute involving Landlord, or any
manufacturer, supplier or carrier of the machinery, materials or supplies
required hereunder or by reason of any act, omission, or circumstance occasioned
by any cause whatsoever not within the control of the Landlord and which
Landlord could not, by reasonable diligence, have avoided, which requirement of
reasonable diligence shall not be construed as requiring the settlement of
strikes or labor controversies by acceding to the demands of the opposing party
or parties.
(e) No Damage for Inconvenience. During the course of any repair or
restoration of any portion of the Premises or of the Building pursuant to this
Paragraph 19, no inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance arising from such
repair or restoration shall give rise to any claim or right on the part of
Tenant for damages, compensation, or additional rights to terminate this Lease.
Landlord shall exert reasonable efforts to make such repair or restoration
promptly and in such manner as not to cause any more inconvenience, annoyance or
loss of business to Tenant than shall be necessary to Landlord's good faith
efforts to fulfill its obligations under this Paragraph 19.
(f) Uninsured Casualty. Notwithstanding the above, in the event that a
peril against which Landlord shall have been uninsured (and was not required to
be insured) shall have damaged the Damaged Property to the point where Landlord
shall determine, in Landlord's sole discretion, the cost to substantially repair
the Damaged Property would exceed five percent (5 %) of the full replacement
cost of the Building, or the repair would take longer than one hundred eighty
(180) days, then Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord's sole discretion,
to terminate this Lease without being liable to Tenant in any way for any loss,
inconvenience or annoyance that Tenant may thereby suffer by delivering to
Tenant written notice of such election with ninety (90) days after the date of
the damage. If Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant such notice within such
ninety (90) day period, Landlord shall be conclusively deemed to have elected
not to terminate this Lease, and Landlord shall proceed to repair and restore
the Damaged
25
<PAGE>
Property in accordance with this Paragraph 19.
(g) Waiver. The provisions of California Civil Code ss. 1932, Subsection 2,
and ss. 1933, Subsection 4, are hereby waived by Tenant.
20. Eminent Domain. In case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof
as shall substantially interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy thereof, shall
be taken for any public or quasipublic purpose by any lawful power or authority
by exercise of the right of appropriation, condensation or eminent domain, or
sold to prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this
Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said
authority by delivering to the other party written notice of such election
within thirty (30) days after the possession date. Tenant may assert any claim
against the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking, and
Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without
deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of
property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the
conduct of Tenant's business, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of
the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. Unless this
Lease is terminated as provided above, Landlord shall then promptly proceed to
restore the Premises to substantially their same condition prior to such partial
taking, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent
corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of
which, Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration.
Nothing contained in this Paragraph shall be deemed to give Landlord any
interest in any award separately made to Tenant for the taking of personal
property and trade fixtures belonging to Tenant or for moving costs incurred by
Tenant in relocating Tenant's business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord
shall pay to Tenant that portion of any award that shall be attributable to
Tenant Injuries ("Tenant Injuries"), which are hereby defined to be (i) moving
expenses of Tenant, and (ii) the taking of as yet unamortized Tenant's Changes
which, Tenant shall have the burden of proving, were paid for out of Tenant's
own separate and independently identifiable funds. However, Landlord shall not
be obligated to make any payments as provided herein to Tenant on account of
Tenant Injuries if any of the following conditions shall not have been met: (i)
the award must specifically state that a portion of it was given to compensate
Tenant Injuries, (ii) the award must specifically state how much of it was given
solely and specifically to compensate Tenant Injuries and (iii) the award shall
not be subject to the prior lien of any Lender. Landlord shall use all
reasonable efforts to assist Tenant to secure from the condemning authority a
separate award for Tenant Injuries.
21. Defaults and Remedies.
(a) Definition of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute a default hereunder by Tenant:
(i) Abandonment. The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by
Tenant. Abandonment is herein defined to include, but is not limited to,
any absence by Tenant from the Premises for five (5) consecutive days or
longer while in default of any provision of this Lease (unless such
abandonment is due to casualty covered by Paragraph 19 above).
(ii) Monetary Default. The failure by Tenant to make any payment of
rent or additional rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant
hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period
of five (5) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant;
provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in
addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure
ss. 1161. Landlord shall invoice Tenant for payments due under this
Subparagraph 21(a)(ii) on or before ten (10) days
26
<PAGE>
prior to the date on which the payments shall be due. Notwithstanding
whether Tenant shall receive an invoice, payments due under this
Subparagraph 21(a)(ii) shall be due on the date on which they normally
would be due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall still be liable
for interest, as provided in Paragraph 30, in the event that Tenant shall
fail to make any payments due under this Lease on or by the date on which
they are due.
(iii) Non-Monetary Default. The failure by Tenant to observe or
perform any of the express or implied covenants or provisions of this Lease
to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than as specified in
Subparagraph 21(a)(i) or (ii) above, where such failure shall continue for
a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to
Tenant; provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and
not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil
Procedure ss. 1161; provided, further, that if the nature of Tenant's
default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for
its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall
commence such cure within said thirty-day period and thereafter diligently
prosecute such cure to completion.
(iv) Bankruptcy Matters.
(1) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the
benefit of creditors;
(2) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant
adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement
under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60)
days);
(3) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession
of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of
Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to
Tenant within sixty (60) days; or
(4) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of
substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of
Tenant's interest in this Lease where such seizure is not discharged
within sixty (60) days.
(b) Landlord's Right to Terminate. In the event of any such default by
Tenant, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in
equity, Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all
rights of Tenant hereunder. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so
terminate this Lease then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been
earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) the worth at the time of award of the amounts by which the unpaid
rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent for -the balance of the then-existing portion of the Term after the
time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves
could be reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the
detriment
27
<PAGE>
proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform his obligations under
this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to
result therefrom.
As used in Subparagraphs 21(b)(i) and (ii) above, the "worth at the time of
award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate permitted by law per
annum. As used in Subparagraph 21(b)(iii) ,above, the "worth at the time of
award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent
(1%).
(c) Right to Keep Lease in Effect. In the event of any default by Tenant,
at Landlord's option pursuant to California Civil Code ss. 1951.4, or any
successor statute thereof, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as
Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession, and Landlord shall
have the right to enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease,
including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due, under this Lease,
provided that Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any
proposed assignment of this Lease by Tenant or any proposed subletting by
Tenant. Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the Premises or
the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of Landlord to protect Landlord's
interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant's right
to possession unless written notice of termination is given by Landlord to
Tenant.
(d) Right of Re-Entry. In the event of any such default by Tenant, Landlord
shall also have the right, with or without terminating this Lease, to re-enter
the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such
property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the
cost of and for the account of Tenant. No re-entry or taking possession of the
Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Subparagraph 21(d) shall be construed as
an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be
given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of
competent jurisdiction.
(e) Rights in Event of Bankruptcy. In addition to, and in no way limiting
the other remedies set forth herein, Landlord and Tenant agree that if Tenant
ever becomes the subject of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy,
reorganization, composition, or other similar type proceeding under the federal
bankruptcy laws, as now enacted or hereinafter amended, then:
(i) "Adequate protection" of Landlord's interest in the Premises
pursuant to the provisions of Section 361 and 363 (or their successor
sections) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq., (such
Bankruptcy Code as amended from time to time being herein referred to as
the "Bankruptcy Code"), prior to assumption and/or assignment of the Lease
by Tenant shall include, but not be limited to all (or any part) of the
following:
A. the continued payment by Tenant of the Annual Basic Rent and
all other Rent due and owing hereunder and the performance of all
other covenants and obligations hereunder by Tenant;
B. the furnishing of a security deposit by Tenant in the amount
of three (3) times the then current monthly Base Rental.
(ii) "Adequate assurance of future performance" by Tenant and/or any
assignee of Tenant pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365 will include
(but not be limited to) payment of a Security Deposit in the amount of
three (3) times the then current monthly Annual Basic Rent payable
hereunder.
(iii) Any person or entity to which this Lease is assigned pursuant to
the provisions of
28
<PAGE>
the Bankruptcy Code, shall be deemed without further act or deed to have
assumed all of the obligations of Tenant arising under this Lease on and
after the effective date of such assignment. Any such assignee shall, upon
demand by Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument
confirming such assumption of liability.
(iv) Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, all
amounts payable by Tenant to or on behalf of the Landlord under this Lease,
whether or not expressly denominated as "Rent,' shall constitute "rent" for
the purposes of Section 502(b) (6) of the Bankruptcy Code.
(v) If this Lease is assigned to any person or entity pursuant to the
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, any and all monies or other
considerations payable or otherwise to be delivered to Landlord (including
Annual Basic Rent and other rent hereunder), shall be and remain the
exclusive property of Landlord and shall not constitute property of Tenant
or of the bankruptcy estate of Tenant. Any and all monies or other
considerations constituting Landlord's property under the preceding
sentence not paid or delivered to Landlord shall be held in trust by Tenant
or Tenant's bankruptcy estate for the benefit of Landlord and shall be
promptly paid to or turned over to Landlord.
(vi) If Tenant assumes this Lease and proposes to assign the same
pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to any person or entity
who shall have made a bona fide offer to accept an assignment of this Lease
on terms acceptable to the Tenant, then notice of such proposed
offer/assignment, setting forth: (A) the name and address of such person or
entity, (B) all of the terms and conditions of such offer, and (C) the
adequate assurance to be provided Landlord to assure such person's or
entity's future performance under the Lease, shall be given to Landlord by
Tenant no later than twenty (20) days after receipt by Tenant, but in any
event no later than ten (10) days prior to the date that Tenant shall make
application to a court of competent jurisdiction for authority and approval
to enter into such assumption and assignment, and Landlord shall thereupon
have the prior right and option, to be exercised by notice to Tenant given
at any time prior to the effective date of such proposed assignment, to
accept an assignment of this Lease upon the same terms and conditions and
for the same consideration, if any, as the bona fide offer made by such
persons or entity, less any brokerage commission which may be payable out
of the consideration to be paid by such person for the assignment of this
Lease.
(vii) To the extent permitted by law, Landlord and Tenant agree that
this Lease is a contract under which applicable law excuses Landlord from
accepting performance from (or rendering performance to) any person or
entity other than Tenant within the meaning of Sections 365(c) and 365(e)
(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.
(f) Rights Cumulative. All rights, options and remedies of Landlord
contained in this Lease shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one
of them shall be exclusive of the other, and 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 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.
The consent or approval of Landlord to or of any act by Tenant requiring
Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary Landlord's consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar acts
by Tenant.

22. Assignment and Subletting.
(a) Generally. Tenant shall not voluntarily assign or encumber its interest
in this Lease or in the Premises, or sublease all or any part of the Premises,
or allow any other person or entity (other than an Affiliated Company) to occupy
or use all or any part of the Premises, without first obtaining Landlord's prior
written consent, given or withheld in accordance with this Paragraph 22. Any
other assignment, encumbrance or sublease without Landlord's prior written
consent shall be voidable, at Landlord's election, and shall constitute a
default. For purposes hereof, hi the event Tenant is a partnership, a withdrawal
or change of partners owning more than a fifty percent (50%) interest in the
partnership, or if Tenant is a corporation, any transfer of fifty percent (50%)
of its stock, shall constitute a voluntary assignment and shall be subject to
these provisions (the foregoing shall not apply to the sale of shares of Tenant
effected through the "over-the-counter" market or through any nationally
recognized stock exchange provided that such transfer is made for good business
purpose and not to circumvent the need for Landlord's consent). No consent to
any assignment, encumbrance, or sublease shall constitute a further waiver of
the provisions of this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall
have the right, without Landlord's prior consent, but with at least fifteen (15)
days' advance written notice to Landlord specifying in reasonable detail the
transaction in question and, to sublease all or a portion of the Premises to, or
assign Tenant's interest in this Lease to, an Affiliated Company, provided that
no such assignment or sublease shall release Tenant from its obligations
hereunder, and provided further that all other terms and conditions of this
Paragraph 22 must be complied with in any such assignment or subletting.
(b) Procedure.
(i) Preliminary Notice. If, at any time during the Term, Tenant
determines that it desires to assign its interest in the Lease (other than
to an Affiliated Company) or to sublease (A) approximately fifty percent
(50%) or more of the Rentable Square Feet on the seventeenth (17th) floor
of the Building or (B) substantially all of any other floor within the
Premises (except, in each case for subleases to Affiliated Companies), for
a term that is substantially the remainder of the Term, then, before Tenant
commences its marketing efforts, Tenant shall send a notice to Landlord
("Preliminary Notice") describing the space which Tenant desires to so
assign or sublease and the proposed effective date of such assignment or
sublease, which effective date shall be no earlier than ninety (90) days
following the date of delivery of the Preliminary Notice. Landlord shall
have the right, within thirty (30) days following Tenant's delivery of the
Preliminary Notice, in which to elect to recapture the portion of the
Premises, that is the subject of the Preliminary Notice, effective as of
the proposed effective date of such subleasing or assignment as set forth
in the Preliminary Notice ("Recapture Effective Date"). If Landlord
exercises such right to recapture, Landlord shall promptly deliver to
Tenant an amendment to this Lease pursuant to which, as of the Recapture
Effective Date, the portion of the Premises that is the subject of the
Preliminary Notice shall be removed from the Premises, and the Annual Basic
Rent and Tenant's Percentage shall be appropriately adjusted to account for
such removal and Tenant shall have no further liability or obligation with
respect to the portion of the Premises recaptured by Landlord. In such
event, on or prior to the Recapture Effective Date, Tenant shall vacate
such portion of the Premises, leaving the same broom-clean and free of
Tenant's personal property, moveable equipment and personnel, and shall
construct such demising walls and code-required improvements, corridors,
etc., as may be necessary to effect the separation of the portion of the
Premises to be recaptured from the remainder of the Premises to be retained
by Tenant. If, however, Landlord either elects not to exercise its right to
recapture as set forth herein, or fails to timely notify Tenant of its
election, Landlord shall be deemed to have waived its right to recapture
the portion of the Premises that is the subject of the Preliminary Notice,
and Tenant shall be free
30
<PAGE>
thereafter, for a period of three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the
date of delivery of the Preliminary Notice, to assign or sublease the
subject portion of the Premises in accordance with the procedures set forth
in Subparagraph 22(b)(ii) below. If, following such three hundred
sixty-five (365) day period, Tenant has not entered into a sublease or
assignment transaction for the subject portion of the Premises, Landlord's
right under this Subparagraph 22(b)(i) shall again be applicable.
(ii) Approval/Disapproval. If, following Landlord's waiver or deemed
waiver of the recapture rights described in Subparagraph 22(b)(i) above, or
if Tenant intends to engage in a sublease transaction requiring Landlord's
consent, but not meeting the requirements set forth above which are
necessary to give rise to Landlord's recapture option, Tenant shall notify
Landlord in writing of Tenant's intent to sublease, encumber or assign this
Lease, including in such notice the name of the proposed assignee or
sublessee, information concerning the financial responsibility of the
proposed assignee or sublessee and the terms of, the proposed assignment or
subletting. Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such
written notice, and of such additional information as may be requested by
Landlord concerning the proposed assignee's or sublessee's financial
responsibility, elect one of the following:
(A) Consent to such proposed assignment, encumbrance or sublease;
or
(B) Refuse such consent, which refusal shall be on reasonable
grounds.
(c) Proceeds. In the event that Landlord shall consent to a sublease or
assignment under the provisions of this Paragraph 22, Tenant shall pay
Landlord's reasonable processing costs and attorneys' fees incurred in giving
such consent. If for any assignment or sublease Tenant receives rent or other
consideration, either initially or over the term of the assignment or sublease,
in excess of the rent called for hereunder, or, in case of the sublease of a
portion of the Premises, in excess of such rent fairly allocable to such
portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments called
for hereunder are taken into account, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional
rent hereunder one-half (1/2) of the excess of each such payment of rent or
other consideration received by Tenant promptly after its receipt which exceeds
all reasonable costs associated with such sublease or assignment including
without limitation unamortized tenant improvements, brokerage commissions and
legal costs. Landlord's waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall
not relieve Tenant from any obligations under this Lease except as may be
otherwise expressly provided in this Paragraph 22. Occupancy of all or part of
the Premises by an Affiliated Company shall not be deemed an assignment or
subletting.
23. Subordination. Subject to the condition that Tenant receives a
non-disturbance agreement as set forth below, and at the election of Landlord or
any first mortgagee with a lien on the Building or any ground lessor with
respect to the Building, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all
times to: (a) all ground leases or underlying leases which may now exist or
hereafter be executed affecting the Building or the Site or both, and (b) the
lien of any mortgage or deed of trust which may now exist or hereafter be
executed in any amount for which the Building, Site, ground leases, or
underlying leases, or Landlord's interest or estate in any of said items is
specified as security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the
right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated any such ground leases or
underlying leases or any such liens to this Lease. In the event that any ground
lease or underlying lease terminates for any reason or any mortgage or deed of
trust is foreclosed or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is made for any
reason, Tenant shall, notwithstanding any subordination, s to and become the
Tenant of the successor in interest to Landlord and Tenant's right to possession
of the Premises shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default beyond
applicable cure periods and so long as Tenant shall pay the rent and all other
amounts required to be paid to Landlord pursuant to the terms hereof and observe
and perform all of the provisions of this Lease, unless the Lease is otherwise
terminated pursuant to its
31
<PAGE>
terms. As a condition of subordination, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a
non-disturbance agreement on Landlord's lender's (or ground lessor's) standard
form (which non-disturbance agreement will not materially increase the
obligations of Tenant hereunder or materially reduce the rights of Tenant
hereunder), executed and acknowledged by such lender (or ground lessor) (and, if
required by such lender or ground lessor, by Landlord), for Tenant's execution,
Tenant shall have the right of reasonable approval ,of the terms and provisions
of the non-disturbance agreement with the Lender, and Landlord will reimburse
Tenant for its actual reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys' fees in the review of
such agreement. Additionally, concurrently with the mutual execution of this
Lease, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant, for Tenant's execution and
acknowledgment, a Subordination of Deed of Trust in the form of Exhibit D
attached hereto, executed and acknowledged by Prentiss. Subject to the foregoing
terms, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, upon demand by
Landlord and in the form requested by Tenant, any documents evidencing the
priority or subordination of this Lease with respect to any such ground leases
or underlying leases or the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust so long
as such subordination and the documents do not materially increase the
obligations of Tenant hereunder or materially reduce Tenant's rights under this
Lease. Should Tenant fail to sign and return any such documents within ten (10)
business days of receipt, Landlord may submit a notice to Tenant, specifying, in
bold face print at the top of the notice and on the envelope containing such
notice: "NOTE: SECOND NOTICE DELIVERED PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPH 23 OF LEASE FAILURE
TO RESPOND WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS MAY RESULT IN DEFAULT UNDER LEASE'. If,
within five (5) business days following delivery of such second (2nd) notice,
Tenant fails to sign and return such documents, Tenant shall be in default
hereunder and shall additionally indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord
harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, damage or liability arising
out of such failure to timely execute and deliver such document.
24. Estoppel Certificate.
(a) Generally. Within twenty (20) days following any written request which
a party may make from time to time, the other party shall execute and deliver to
the requesting party a statement certifying: (i) the date of commencement of
this Lease; (ii) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or, if there have been modifications hereto, that this Lease is in full
force and effect, as modified, and stating the date and nature of such
modifications); (iii) the date to which the rental and other sums payable under
this Lease have been paid; (iv) the fact that there are no current defaults
under this Lease by either Landlord or Tenant except as specified in such
statement; and (v) such other matters as may be reasonably requested by the
requesting party. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered by
Tenant pursuant to this Paragraph 25 may be relied upon by any mortgagee,
beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Building or any interest
therein, and any such statement delivered by Landlord may be relied upon by any
lender, assignee or subtenant of Tenant.
(b) Failure to Provide. A party's failure to deliver such statement within
such time shall be conclusive upon such parry (i) that this Lease is in full
force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by the other
party, (ii) that there are no uncured defaults in the other party's performance,
and (iii) that not more than one (1) month's rental has been paid in advance.
Should Tenant fail to deliver said statement to Landlord within twenty (20) days
of receipt, Landlord may submit a second (2nd) notice to Tenant, specifying, in
bold face print at the top of the notice and on the envelope containing such
notice, the following: "NOTE: SECOND NOTICE DELIVERED PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPH
24(b) OF LEASE - FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS. MAY RESULT IN
DEFAULT UNDER LEASE". If, within five (5) business days following delivery of
such second (2nd) notice, Tenant fails to sign and deliver to Landlord the
certificate required hereunder, such failure shall constitute a default under
this Lease, hereunder and shall additionally
32
<PAGE>
indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and
all loss, cost, damage or liability arising out of such failure to timely
execute and deliver such document. Should Landlord fail to deliver any
certificate required under this Paragraph 24 within twenty (20) days of receipt,
Tenant shall have the right to submit a second (2nd) notice to Landlord, special
in bold face print at the top of the notice and on the envelope containing such
notice, the following: "NOTE: SECOND NOTICE DELIVERED PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS
OF SUBPARAGRAPH 24(b) OF LEASE FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS
WELL RESULT IN DEEMED APPROVAL OF CERTIFICATE." If, within five (5) business
days following delivery of such second (2nd) notice, Landlord fails to deliver
to Tenant an executed estoppel certificate as required under this Paragraph 24,
then the terms conditions and statements set forth in the certificate submitted
by Tenant may be relied upon as being true and correct by any third-party
lender, assignee or subtenant of Tenant.
25. Rules and Regulations. Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with
the Rules and Regulations, and all reasonable and nondiscriminatory
modifications thereof and additions thereto from time to time put into effect by
Landlord. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the violation or
non-performance by any other tenant or occupant of the Building of any of said
Rules and Regulations.
26. Governing Law. This Lease shall be governed by and construed pursuant
to the laws of the State of California.
27. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all
of the covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon
and shall insure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
28. Surrender of Premises. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease
by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger, and shall,
at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to it of any or all
subleases or subtenancies.
29. Professional Fees. If either party should bring suit for the possession
of the Premises, for the recovery of any sum due under this Lease, or because of
the breach of any provisions of this Lease, or for any other relief against the
other party hereunder, then all costs and expenses, including without
limitations actual professional fees such as appraisers', accountants' and
attorneys' fees, incurred by the prevailing party therein shall be paid by the
other party, which obligation on the part of the other party shall be deemed to
have occurred on the date of the commencement of such action and shall be
enforceable whether or not the action is prosecuted to judgment.
30. Performance by Tenant. All covenants and agreements to be performed by
Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at
Tenant's sole cost and expense and without any abatement of rent, except as
expressly provided elsewhere in this Lease. If tenant shall fail to pay any sum
of money, other than rent, required to be paid by it hereunder or shall fail to
perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, and such failure
shall continue beyond any applicable cure periods following notice thereof by
Landlord, Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant from obligations of
Tenant, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such
other act on Tenant's part to be made or performed as in this Lease; provided,
however, that if, in Landlord's reasonable, good faith judgment, such failure on
the part of Tenant may, if the same persists, constitutes an emergency, a threat
to other persons or property, or would result in substantially greater loss
(either financial or with respect to damaged property), the grace period
provided for hereunder before Landlord shall have the right to exercise its
rights as set forth above shall be two (2) business days. All sums so paid by
Landlord and all necessary incidental costs together with interest thereon at
the Interest Rate, from
33
<PAGE>
the date of such payment by Landlord, shall be payable to Landlord on demand.
Tenant covenants to pay any such sums, and Landlord shall have (in addition to
any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event
of the non-payment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the
payment of the rent. Therefore, if any monthly installment of Annual Basic Rent
or any other payment due hereunder is not received by Landlord by the date when
due, it shall bear interest at the interest Rate from the date on which it is
due until the date on which it is paid regardless of whether or not a notice of
default or notice of termination has been given by Landlord.
31. Mortgagee Protection. 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 mortgage covering the Premises whose address
shall have been furnished in writing to Tenant, and shall offer such beneficiary
or mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including time to
obtain possession of the Premises by power of sale or a judicial foreclosure, if
such should provide necessary to effect a cure.
32. Definition of Landlord. 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 the owner or owners, at the time in question,
of the fee title to, or a lessee's interest in a ground lease of the Site. In
the event of any transfer, assignment or other conveyance or transfers of any
such title or interest, Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent
transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be freed and relieved from and
after the date of such transfer, assignment or conveyance of all liability as
respects the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord
contained in this I-ease thereafter to be performed provided that the transferee
shall have assumed and agreed in writing to observe and perform any and all
obligations of Landlord hereunder during its ownership of the Premises. Landlord
may transfer its interest in the Premises without the consent of Tenant and such
transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord's
part of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease. However, Tenant shall not
be required to recognize Landlord's successor unless and until it receives
written notice from Landlord of the transfer.
33. Waiver. The waiver by either party 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, nor shall any custom or practice which may become established between
the parties in the administration of the terms hereof be deemed a waiver of, or
in any way affect, the right of a party to insist upon the performance by the
other in strict accordance with said terms. The subsequent acceptance of rent
hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach
by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the
failure of Tenant to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of
Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such
rent.
34. Identification. If more than one person executes this Lease as Landlord
or Tenant, (a) each of them is jointly and severally liable for the keeping,
observing and performing of all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions
and agreements of this Lease to be kept, observed and performed by the party on
behalf of when they execute this Lease, and (b) the term "Tenant" and "Landlord"
as applicable, as used in this Lease shall mean and include each of them jointly
and severally and the act of or notice from, or notice or refund to, or the
signature of, any one or more of them, with respect to the tenancy or this
Lease, including, but not limited to, any renewal, extension, expiration,
termination or modification of this Lease, shall be binding upon each and all of
the persons executing this Lease as Landlord or Tenant with the same force and
effect as if each and all of them had so acted or so given or received such
notice or refund or so signed.
34
<PAGE>
35. Parking.
(a) Valet Spaces. Tenant shall have the right to lease up to a certain
maximum number of parking spaces ("Maximum Number") in the Building ("Valet
Spaces") equal to the total number of spaces ,.in the Building's parking garage
("Garage") multiplied by Tenant's Percentage. The Maximum Number as of the
Commencement Date is hereby defined to be 147 (i.e., 1 space per 1,000 Rentable
Square Feet leased).
(b) Adjustment of Quantity of Spaces Leased. For each year, Tenant shall
have the option ("Quantity Increase Option") of leasing more or fewer Valet
Spaces in the Building than previously leased by Tenant, but in no event more
than the then-applicable Maximum Number, as provided herein. Tenant may only
increase the number of Valet Spaces it shall lease by a maximum of ten (10)
Valet Spaces per year and the number of Valet Spaces leased by Tenant may be
increased only once each calendar year. Tenant shall exercise the Quantity
Increase Option by notifying Landlord in writing on or before ninety (90) days
prior to the date on which Tenant shall wish to increase the number of Valet
Spaces that Tenant shall lease. Tenant may decrease the number of Valet Spaces
leased by Tenant as often as monthly with sixty (60) days' advance written
notice to Landlord. Except for Valet Space leases commenced or terminated
pursuant to this Paragraph, all Valet Space leases shall commence on the
Commencement Date and shall be coterminous with the expiration of the Term.
(c) Parking Fee. Tenant shall pay as a monthly parking fee ("Parking Fee")
for all Valet Spaces it shall lease during the Term, either (i) 80% of the
market rate that Landlord reasonably determines is applicable to Valet Spaces
for comparable buildings in the Comparison Area or (ii) if and only if the
calculation in clause (i) above cannot be made due to the lack of Valet Space
rates in such comparable buildings to be used for comparison purposes, one
hundred percent (100%) of the market rate for non-valet spaces that Landlord
reasonably determines is applicable for comparable buildings within the
Comparison Area. Said Parking Fee shall be subject to change from time to time;
provided that (i) Landlord must give Tenant at least sixty (60) days advance
written notice of any adjustment in the Parking Fee together with an analysis of
the rates charged by comparable office buildings in the Comparison Area for
similar services, if applicable, and (ii) Landlord may not so adjust the Parking
Fee payable by Tenant more than twice in any calendar year. Tenant shall also
pay eighty percent (80%) of the Building's then current charge for parking
validations for Tenant's customers and invitees. The Parking Fee for Valet
Spaces shall be deemed additional rent which shall be due on the first day of
every month. If Tenant shall fail to pay any Parking Fee by the first day of the
month, such unpaid sums shall bear interest at the Interest Rate.
(d) Valet Operations, Quality of Service. All Valet Spaces shall be run as
valet parking, and subject to the provisions set forth below, Landlord shall
have the right to determine the manner in which said valet parking service shall
be run. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, upon
reasonable advance written notice to Landlord, to review Landlord's established
standards for Garage operation and management, including service performance and
costs. If Tenant, in good faith, is unsatisfied with the manner of operations of
the Garage and/or the service provided, Tenant may notify Landlord of such
dissatisfaction, specifying in such notice in reasonable detail the nature of
such dissatisfaction. If, at any time during any twelve (12) calendar month
period, Tenant so notifies Landlord on two (2) or more occasions of Tenant's
dissatisfaction with respect to a particular aspect of the. operations or
management of, or services afforded in, the Garage and the problem which was
specified as the basis for Tenant's dissatisfaction is not cured or otherwise
alleviated to Tenant's reasonable satisfaction within a reasonable time period
after such second (2nd) notice, Tenant may, upon reasonable advance
35
<PAGE>
written notice to Landlord, (i) require a "three party" meeting among Tenant,
Landlord and representatives of Landlord's Garage operator, in which event such
parties shall meet promptly in a diligent, good faith effort to resolve any
performance issues specified by Tenant or (ii) if Tenant reasonably determines
that the level of service or specifications for operations of the Garage is
below the applicable standards for comparable parking facilities provided in
comparable buildings in the Comparison ,Area, Tenant may require that Landlord
replace the then-existing Garage operator, in which event Landlord, subject to
the terms and provisions of Landlord's then-existing contract with such Garage
operator, shall use reasonable efforts to effect the replacement of the
then-existing Building Garage operator with a replacement Garage operator.
Tenant shall not ask to have parked in the Building any vehicles other than
automobiles, vans, motor driven or non-motor driven bicycles and fourwheeled
trucks.
(e) Non-Valet Spaces. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the
right, as part of the Maximum Number, to lease up to ten (10) non-valet spaces
("Non-Valet Spaces"). Non-Valet Spaces shall be reserved parking spaces on the
first floor of the parking levels into which Tenant may drive its vehicles
directly without the help of one of the Building's parking valets. In addition
to the Non-Valet Spaces provided pursuant to the immediately preceding
provisions of this Subparagraph 35(e), Landlord will provide an additional five
(5) Non-Valet Spaces on the first floor parking level of the Garage for use by
designated employees of Tenant who arrive in the Garage prior to the arrival of
the employees of the Garage operator; such spaces shall be located near the
Garage entry. With respect to such additional five (5) Non-Valet Spaces, Tenant
acknowledges that the Garage operator may legitimately need to move one or more
of the vehicles parked in such spaces during the course of any business day in
order to facilitate the Garage operator's valet operations within the Garage;
accordingly, Tenant agrees to use reasonable, good faith efforts to cooperate
with Landlord and the Garage operator (and to cause Tenant's employees utilizing
such five (5) spaces to similarly cooperate), in an effort to reach a mutually
agreeable arrangement as to a procedure whereby the Garage operator will have
access to the ignition keys to vehicles parked in such five (5) additional
Non-Valet Spaces, in order that such vehicles may be moved during the course of
a business day. Landlord shall have the sole authority from time to time to

Tenant in writing. Tenant's right to have Non-Valet Spaces shall not be assigned
without the prior written consent of Landlord, not to be unreasonably withheld,

that belong to or are controlled by Tenant or Tenant's employees, suppliers or
shippers to be loaded, unloaded, or parked in areas other than those designated

prohibited activities described in this Subparagraph 35(f), then Landlord shall
have the right, without notice, in addition to such other rights and remedies
that it may have, to remove or tow away the vehicle involved and charge the cost
to Tenant, which cost shall be immediately payable upon demand by Landlord.

(5) BUSINESS DAYS MAY RESULT IN NULLIFICATION OF EXERCISE OF RIGHT TO
SURRENDER." If, within five (5) business days following delivery of such notice,
Tenant fails to execute such amendment and deliver the same to Landlord, then,
at Landlord's option, Tenant's exercise of the Right to Surrender shall be null
and void and of no further force or effect.
(d) Progression of Floors Subject to Right to Surrender. If Tenant
exercises the Right to Surrender, Tenant must first exercise such right with

Building, if Tenant subsequently exercises the Right to Surrender, such
subsequent exercise must be with respect to the eighth (8th) floor of the
Building. Any other, subsequent exercise of the Right to Surrender must be with
respect to the seventh (7th) floor of the Building.

(b) Exercise of Relocation Right. If Landlord desires to exercise the
Relocation Right, Landlord shall give Tenant at least one hundred eighty (180)
days' prior written notice ("Relocation Notice") thereof. If Landlord exercises
the Relocation Right, then as of the date (the "Relocation Date") that is the
later to occur of (i) the projected date of relocation specified in the
Relocation Notice and (ii) the first (lst) Monday that is at least sixty (60)
days following the date that Landlord substantially completes the improvements
to the ninth (9th) floor described in Paragraph 53(c) below (such sixty (60) day
period [the "Fixturing and Move Period"] to be used by Tenant for the
installation of cabling and otherwise making the ninth (9th) floor ready for,
and the installing of, Tenant's equipment, modular furniture and moveable
property), (A) the "Premises" shall include the ninth (9th) floor of the
Building and the tenth (10th) floor of the Building shall no longer be deemed to
be a portion of the Premises hereunder, and all the terms, covenants,
conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease, including agreements to pay
rent (as well as Tenant's right to exercise the Right to Surrender to the extent
previously applicable to the tenth (10th) floor), shall continue in full force
and effect and shall apply to the portion of the Premises located on the ninth
(9th) floor, and (B) Tenant shall move from the portion of the Premises located
on the tenth (10th) floor of the Building to the ninth (9th) floor of the
Building, and shall vacate and surrender possession to Landlord of such portion
of the Premises located on the tenth (10th) floor, broom-clean and free of
Tenant's personnel, equipment and property. On or about the Relocation Date,
Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an amendment to this Lease, setting forth the
fact that Landlord has exercised the Relocation Right and removing from the
Premises, effective as of the Relocation Date, the portion of the Premises
located on the tenth (10th) floor, and concurrently adding to the Premises, the
entire ninth (9th) floor of the Building.
(c) Improvement of Ninth (9th) Floor. If Landlord exercises the Relocation
Right, Landlord shall, prior to the commencement of the Fixturing and Move
Period, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, improve the ninth (9th) floor of
the Building in substantially the same manner as the tenth (10th) floor of the
Building has, as of such date, been improved, including similar quality, layout
and design (the commercial availability of like or similar materials shall be
taken into account in such case, such that Landlord shall not be required to
duplicate materials or finishes which are no longer readily available, on the
market, but may instead, with Tenant's consent [not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed] substitute reasonable substitution materials or
finishes). Tenant, in good faith, shall diligently cooperate with Landlord in
the review and approval of all designs for the proposed improvements to the
ninth (9th) floor, in an effort to facilitate the efficient design and
construction of such improvements. After the substantial completion of such
ninth (9th) floor improvements and issuance of a certificate of occupancy from
the City of Oakland, and prior to the commencement of the Fixturing and Move
Period, and, once again within ten (10) business days following Tenant's
occupancy of the ninth (9th) floor of the Building, Landlord and Tenant, or
their designated representatives, shall tour the ninth (9th) floor of the
Building, together with a representative of Landlord's general contractor
performing the improvements to the ninth (9th) floor, to establish a list of
uncompleted items of construction (the "Relocation Punch List"). Upon the
establishment of each Relocation Punch List, Landlord shall cause Landlord's
contractor to complete all items shown on the Relocation Punch List as soon as
reasonably possible; such work shall be performed, whenever reasonably possible,
after hours or during weekends, so as to cause the least possible disturbance to
Tenant's occupancy in the use of the ninth (9th) floor of the Building.

(d) Landlord's Reimbursement. If Landlord exercises the Right to Relocate,
Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for all direct and indirect costs of whatever
kind or nature incurred by Tenant and reasonably related to Landlord's exercise
of the Relocation Right. Prior to the Relocation Date, Tenant shall submit to
Landlord a budget, in reasonable detail, identifying those costs and expenses
which ,Tenant, in good faith, expects to incur as a result of Landlord's
exercise of the Relocation Right; Landlord shall review and approve such budget
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and, to
the extent Landlord reasonably questions any line-item expenses in, or the
calculation of budgeted amounts contained in, such estimate, Landlord shall
specify such concerns in reasonable detail in writing to Tenant. Promptly
following the receipt of any such notice from Landlord, Tenant shall meet with
Landlord in a good faith, diligent effort to arrive at an accurate estimate of
the cost to be incurred by Tenant as a result of Landlord's exercise of the
Relocation Right. If and to the extent that the parties reach agreement as to
the budget, Landlord shall, promptly following receipt of any invoices from
Tenant for costs included within such approved budget, pay the amounts showing
in such invoices. The provisions set forth above regarding the preparation of an
approved budget of Tenant's cost shall not be deemed to preclude Tenant from
reasonably incurring additional costs of a type, or in an amount, not contained
within such budget, provided that such costs are reasonably related to the
exercise by Landlord of the Relocation Right, but rather, are provided for the
purposes of allowing Landlord to accurately budget for, and fund Landlord's
expenses related to such relocation.
(e) Tenant's Failure to Relocate, If Tenant fails to move into the ninth
(9th) floor during the Fixturing and Move Period and Tenant continues to occupy
the portion of the Premises located on the tenth (10th) floor after the
Fixturing and Move Period, then thereafter, during the period of such occupancy,
Tenant shall pay Annual Basic Rent for the tenth (10di) floor at the rate
specified in Paragraph 9 above.
(f) Landlord's Delay in Relocation. If, following Landlord's exercise of
the Relocation Right, Landlord desires to delay the commencement of the
Fixturing and Move Period, Landlord must deliver written notice to Tenant of
such delay, and the new date of commencement of the Fixturing and Move Period,
as specified in such notice, which must be at least thirty (30) days following
the date of delivery of such notice. Additionally, if Landlord so notifies
Tenant of a delay in the commencement of the Fixturing and Move Period, the
parties hereby acknowledge that Tenant may incur additional costs associated
with such delay. Accordingly, in the event of such delay, Landlord shall
promptly pay all of Tenant's costs of any kind or nature reasonably related to
such delay upon receipt of invoices therefor.
(g) Expiration of Relocation Right. If Landlord exercises the Relocation
Right and the commencement of the Fixturing and Move Period does not occur
within one (1) year following the date of delivery of the Relocation Notice,
Landlord's exercise of the Relocation Right shall be null and void and of no
further force or effect and Tenant shall have no obligation to relocate to the
ninth (9th) floor, provided that Landlord shall remain obligated to reimburse
Tenant for direct and indirect costs associated with Landlord's exercise of the
Relocation Right.
54. Mid-Term Refurbishment Allowance. Landlord shall provide to Tenant a
refurbishment allowance, which may, at Tenant's option, be applied towards the
cost of alterations or improvements to the Premises in the amount of Seven
Hundred Thirty-Five Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($735,000.00) (the
"Refurbishment Allowance") on or before January 1, 2003. If, Landlord has failed
to provide Tenant with all or any portion of the Refurbishment Allowance by
March 31, 2003, Tenant shall have the right, to be exercised by irrevocable
written notice to Landlord, to offset against Annual Basic Rent payable
hereunder the amount of One Hundred Eighty-Three Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty

Rooftop Signs on the South side of the Building. Tenant shall bear all the costs
associated with any Rooftop Signs that Tenant shall decide to erect or may have
previously erected. The design of all Rooftop Signs, including their aesthetic
character, shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. No sign other than
Tenant's Rooftop Signs shall be erected on the top of the Building without the
prior written consent of Tenant.
(b) Ground Floor Tenant's Signage. All interior and exterior signage
belonging to a ground floor tenant of the Building shall be subject to Tenant's
prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld. Tenant recognizes that
a ground floor tenant will probably have some signage on the outside of the
Building, and Tenant hereby agrees not to withhold unreasonably its approval of
this, or of any other, sort of signage belonging to a tenant on the ground floor
of the Building.
(c) Name Change. In the event that World Savings and Loan Association shall
change its name, World Savings and Loan Association shall have the right, at its
sole expense, to change the name and exterior and interior signage of the
Building so as to reflect its new name; provided that any changes in the name
and exterior signage of the Building shall not materially differ from the
original design for Landlord Signage (i.e., signage used by Landlord in ground
floor lobby area, parking area, loading dock area and on the Building exterior)
that shall be presented to and approved by Tenant.
(d) Landlord Signage. Tenant shall have reasonable approval of any proposed
material changes to Landlord Signage (except for the parking area and the
loading dock area).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be required to submit to
Tenant for Tenant's approval, or to consult with Tenant regarding, the design of
any signage that Landlord or a tenant other then Tenant may wish to install on
the interior of a Multi-Tenant Floor in the Building, the design and
installation costs of which shall be the sole responsibility of Landlord or of
that other tenant. Tenant shall likewise be free to install any signage Tenant
may wish to install on the interior of a Single Tenant Floor ("Tenant Signage
I"), the design and installation costs of which shall be the sole responsibility
of Tenant. Except where otherwise provided above, Tenant shall have no right to
install or display any sign, placard, picture, advertisement, name or notice on
any part of the outside or on the inside (visible from the exterior or in the
first floor lobby of the Building) of the Building without the prior written
consent of Landlord ("Tenant Signage II"). All Tenant Signage H shall be
printed, painted, affixed or inscribed at the expense of Tenant by a person
approved by Landlord, using materials approved by Landlord and in a style and
format reasonably approved by Landlord.
(e) Tenant's Obligations Upon Termination. Upon the termination of the
Lease, Tenant shall remove, at Tenant's expense, all Rooftop Signs, Tenant
Signage I and Tenant Signage II (collectively "Tenant's Signs") and restore the
Building and Premises to the condition they were in before Tenant installed
Tenant's Signs. If Tenant shall fail to remove Tenant's Signs and restore the
Building and Premises to their former condition, Landlord shall have the right,
at Tenant's expense, to remove Tenant's Signs and to restore the Building and
Premises to their former condition.

56. Telecommunications.
(a) Generally. Subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 56, Tenant shall
have the right to erect telecommunications transmission and reception facilities
and equipment ("TE") on the roof of the ,Building. Landlord acknowledges that,
pursuant to the provisions of the Prior Lease, Tenant has previously erected
certain TE on the Building which Landlord has approved; such TE shall be
governed by the provisions of this Paragraph 56. Tenant shall submit its plans
for changes to or for additional TE to Landlord for Landlord's prior written
approval before Tenant shall make any changes to or erect additional TE.
Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval, but
Landlord may withhold its approval if Landlord shall determine that such changes
to or additional TE, if built as Tenant proposes, would either pose a structural
threat to the Building or have an adverse aesthetic impact thereupon, which
determination of adverse aesthetic impact shall be based solely on the aesthetic
impact the proposed changes to or additional TE would have on the Building
without any special consideration being given to the aesthetic impact it would
have on any other particular buildings in the area. Tenant agrees that the
design of TE, both before and after it shall be built, shall be subject to such
reasonable aesthetic controls as Landlord may deem it appropriate to impose.
Subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 56(a), Landlord and Tenant agree
that each of them shall make every reasonable effort to insure that TE shall be
built in the event that Tenant shall decide that it wants to change or erect
additional TE.
(b) Limitations. If TE shall be built, it shall be used solely and
exclusively by Tenant only for such purposes as a financial institution of like
kind as Tenant would use TE for in the course of its normal business dealings.
Tenant shall not install any radio or television antenna, loudspeaker or any
other device on the roof or exterior walls of the Building other than TE. Tenant
shall not operate TE so as to interfere with radio or television broadcasting or
reception from or in the Building or elsewhere.
(c) Costs; Tenant's Obligations U]Upon Termination. All costs associated
with the (resign, installation and maintenance of TE, including all of
Landlord's reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in reviewing plans submitted
to it for its approval, shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant. Upon the
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove TE and restore the Building to
the condition that it was in before TE was installed. If Tenant shall fail to
remove TE and restore the Building to its former condition to Landlord's
satisfaction, Landlord shall have the right, at Tenant's expense, to cause this
work to be done.

following closed circuit TV cameras: one in the loading dock area, one in the
freight elevator, one at the entrance to the Building's below-grade parking
area, and one at the main floor exit within each of the Building's two fire

at the Central Console and card key controllers in each of two (2) passenger
elevators.
(b) Keys.
(i) Tenant shall not alter any lock or install any new or additional
locks or bolts in the Premises except for such locks or bolts as Tenant may
decide to install in order to restrict access to certain limited areas
("Secured Areas") in the Premises which Tenant may reasonably conclude
require an extraordinary level of protection and security. Tenant shall
from time to time identify to Landlord in writing what areas it shall
intend to convert to Secured Areas, which areas may, but not necessarily
shall, be the areas around Tenant's federal reserve terminal, Tenant's main
computer, and the like. Landlord hereby agrees that for so long as Tenant
or an Affiliated Company shall occupy space in the Building pursuant to
this Lease (A) Tenant shall be the only one to have keys ("Tenant Keys") to
the Secured Areas and (B) no one, including Landlord, shall enter the
Secured Areas except upon Tenant's invitation and accompanied by a duly
authorized representative of Tenant. Notwithstanding the above, Tenant
shall cause to be delivered to Landlord all Tenant Keys that Tenant or an
Affiliated Company shall have had in its possession as soon as Tenant or an
Affiliated Company shall cease to occupy space in the Building pursuant to
this Lease.
(ii) Tenant shall bear the responsibility for all reasonable costs
that Landlord may incur, whether during the Term or at the termination
thereof, as a result of Tenant's having lost any Tenant Keys. Tenant also
hereby agrees to assume full liability and to indemnify Landlord and to
hold Landlord harmless ("Secured Area Indemnity Promise") in the event that
Landlord or any other tenant in the Building shall suffer loss or damage of
any kind whatsoever or in the event that the Building itself shall suffer
loss or damage of any kind whatsoever as a result of Tenant's having
established Secured Areas for which Landlord shall have no key and to which
Landlord cannot gain access except upon being invited and escorted by
Tenant. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Landlord would not have agreed to
Tenant's being able to establish Secured Areas in the Premises without
having received the Secured Area Indemnity Promise as consideration for
agreeing thereto, and nothing in this Lease shall be construed so as to
modify or limit in any way the Secured Area Indemnity Promise. This Secured
Area Indemnity Promise shall be in addition to, and shall itself not be
interpreted so as to limit or modify, any other promises of indemnity that
Tenant may have given Landlord in this Lease.

Second Extension Term shall be determined pursuant to the provisions of

for the Premises during the applicable Extension Term. Tenant acknowledges that
Landlord, by providing Tenant with the Storage Space, is not assuming the
responsibility to ensure the security of or provide security for the Storage
Space, and Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for damage to or
theft of any property stored by Tenant in the Storage Space. Landlord shall
deliver the Storage Space to Tenant in its "as-is" condition, without any
obligation on the part of Landlord to remodel, refurbish or otherwise improve
the Storage Space. Landlord shall have the right, upon thirty (30) days' prior
notice to Tenant, to relocate the Storage Space to another area or areas of the
Budding of approximately the same aggregate Rentable Square Feet as the Storage
