Development Company and Vital Technology, Inc. relinquishing 1,115 square feet of
Suite 3A; and
2. Approve as to form a Second Amendment to the Lease between Abdelmuti Development
Company and Paige Communication, Inc. for those 1,115 square feet of Suite 3A for the
remainder of its existing three-year lease (expiring on June 30, 2002) at the rental rate of
$1.90 per square foot per month.

REQUEST FOR REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ACTION
MEETING DATE: January 18, 2000 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: ED 00-06
Analysis: In Frtay of 1991, the Agency approved an Owner Participation Agreement with the
Abdelmuti Development Company for the development of a 42,000 square foot retail and
office building known as Oceanview Promenade. The provisions of the Agreement (and its
subsequent amendments) require the Agency to make "Rent Differential Payments" on a
monthly basis for an amount equal to the difference between the "Guaranteed Rent" (as
defined in the Agreement) and the "Contract Rent" (the rent actually collected from tenants).
In March of this year, in an effort to better identify current market rents for office space, staff
contracted with an appraiser to perform a rental value appraisal of all the office space in
Oceanview Promenade. The results of this work showed that current rents in the building
lagged the market. The results of the appraisal were shared with the building owner with the
request that, as leases came due for renewal, the appraisal be used as a guide in negotiating
future rents.
In this transaction, Vital Technology, Inc. is relinquishing 1,115 square feet of space in Suite
3A prior to the expiration of its lease (Partial Lease Termination). The same space is being
immediately re -rented to an adjoining tenant, Paige Communication, Inc. (the original Paige
lease was approved as to form by the Agency in September 1999). The Second Amendment
to the lease represents an increase in rent from $1.60 per square foot per month that was
being paid by Vital to $1.90 per square foot per month that will be paid by Paige over the
remainder of its three year lease (the existing Paige lease and Second Amendment will
expire June 30, 2002 and the commencement date for this amendment will be February 1,
2000).
This rental rate exceeds the appraised value of this space ($1.65 per square foot per month)
and, although rent is level for the remainder of the three-year term, the rate is sufficiently high
to be deemed to include the normal and customary annual escalation over the lease term.
Therefore, staff recommends approval of this transaction.

267ro1AE2UM1132S6713.1 .041131" - 9 -
shall entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent or other claim
against Landlord; provided, however, such changes or alterations
shall not deprive Tenant of reasonable access to or materially

contained in Sections 1941, 1941.1 and 1942 of the California Civil

alterations,' additions or improvements to the Premises nor any
repairs, replacements or restorations to the Premises in excess of
TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($2,500.00) without the prior
written consent of Landlord. Landlord may impose, as a condition
to such consent, such requirements as Landlord, in its sole but
reasonable discretion, may deem reasonable or desirable, including,
but not limited to, a requirement that all work be covered by a
surety bond in favor of -Landlord, guaranteeing the completion of
such work free and clear of all subcontractors', mechanics' and
materialmen's liens (which bond shall be satisfactory to Landlord)
and requirements as to the manner, time and contractor or
contractors as to or by which such work shall be done.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no improvements may be made that
would diminish the value of the Premises and, in addition, no
improvements may be made to any mechanical or utility syste-m, the
exterior walls -or the roof of the Premises, nor may any
improvements of a structural nature be made without Landlord's
approval, which approval may be withheld in Landlord's sole and
absolute discretion. In no event shall Tenant make or cause to be
made any penetration through the roof or the floor of the Premises
without the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval may
be withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion. Any
requirements of the Work Letter applicable to any initial
construction work performed by or under Tenant shall also be
applicable to any such alterations, additions and/or improvements.
All alterations made by Tenant shall be in accordance with all
Governmental Requirements and to the extent Tenant's alterations
trigger alterations or other modifications within the Building or
Project, such alterations or other modifications shall be performed
by Landlord at the expense of Tenant. Any request for Landlord's
consent to such work shall be made in writing and shall contain
three (3) sets of architectural plans and specifications (with
square footages) describing such work in detail reasonably satis-
factory to Landlord. No such plans and specifications or any
material change thereto shall be submitted for approval to any
federal, state, county or local government or other governmental
agency or association prior to Landlord's review and approval of
same. Failure of Landlord to respond to such request within thirty
(30) days shall be deemed a denial of such request. Plans and
specifications and governmental applications shall become the
property of Landlord upon the termination or expiration of this
Lease and shall be turned over to Landlord by Tenant upon
Landlord's request therefor. Unless Landlord otherwise agrees in
writing, all such alterations, additions or improvements affixed or
built into the Premises (but excluding moveable trade fixtures and
furniture) shall become the property of Landlord as provided in
Section 14.3 below, and shall be surrendered with the Premises, as
a part._thereof, -at -the end of the Lease term,— except that Landlord
may, by written notice to Tenant given at least thirty (30) days
prior to the end of the Lease term, require Tenant to remove all or
any portion of any alterations, decorations, additions,
improvements and the like installed by Tenant, and to repair, or at
Landlord's option, to pay all costs relating to any damage to the
Premises arising from such removal.

by, for or under Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall. not,
U=14azaooQ1=6113.1 .c ISM9 -10 -
within twenty (20) days following the imposition of any such lien
(but in any event before an action is filed to foreclose such
lien), cause the same to be released of record by payment or
posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all
other remedies provided herein and by law, the right (but not the
obligation) to cause the same to be released by such means as it
shall deem proper, including payment of or defense against the
claim giving rise to such lien. All sums paid by Landlord and all
expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall create
automatically an obligation of Tenant to pay an equivalent amount,
together with interest thereon at the rate provided in Section 13.3
below, from the date paid by Landlord as additional rent, which
additional rent shall be payable by Tenant on Landlord's demand.
Tenant shall give Landlord no less than twenty (20) days' prior
notice in writing before cowmencing the construction of any
building, structure or other improvement on the Premises or of any
substantial repairs, alterations, additions, replacements or
restorations in and about the Premises so that Landlord may post
and maintain such notices of non -responsibility or other notices on
the Premises as Landlord deems necessary for protection from such
liens.
SECTION 6.6 ENTRY AND INSPECTION. Landlord shall at all
times have the right to enter the Premises to inspect the same, to
post notices of non -responsibility, to alter, improve or repair the
Premises or any other portion of the Building, as -otherwise
permitted hereunder, all without being deemed to have evicted
Tenant and without abatement of rent and may for that purpose
erect scaffolding and other necessary structures and store
materials, supplies and tools 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. If during the last month of the term hereof, Tenant
shall have removed substantially all of Tenant's property and
personnel from the Premises, Landlord may enter the Premises and
repair, alter and redecorate the same, without abatement of rent
and without liability to Tenant, and such acts shall have no effect
on this Lease. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages or
abatement of rent for any injury, inconvenience to or interference
with Tenant's business, loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the
Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby; provided, however,
this provision shall not excuse Landlord for its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. As used in this Lease, the term
"gross negligence" shall mean the failure to perform a manifest
duty in reckless disregard of the consequences as affecting the
life or property of another. Landlord shall have the right to use
any and all 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 by any of said means
shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a
forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or
any eviction of Tenant'from the Premises or any portion thereof.
During the last one hundred eighty (180) days of the lease term, or
when an uncured default on the part of Tenant exists hereunder,
Landlord may, at all reasonable times, enter the Premises for the
purpose of displaying the Premises to prospective tenants.

s67r014r.0 MI1315013.t .041131" -11-
such taxes on Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are
levied against Landlord or Landlord's property and if Landlord pays
the same (which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of
the validity of such levy), or if the assessed value of Landlord's
property is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed
upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and if
Landlord pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord
or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the
assessment.
(b) If the tenant improvements in the Premises, 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 tenant improvements conforming to Landlord's
building standards in other space in the Building are assessed,
then the real property taxes and assessments levied against
Landlord or Landlord's property by reason of such excess assessed
valuation may, at Landlord's option, be deemed to be taxes levied
against personal property of Tenant and shall, under such
circumstances, be governed by the Provisions of Section 7.1(a)
above.
(c) Upon request, Tenant agrees to provide receipts,
cancelled checks or other documents reasonably requested by
Landlord to confirm Tenant's payment of any taxes and/or
assessments payable by Tenant directly to the taxing authority

pledge or otherwise transfer all or any part of the Premises or
Tenant's leasehold estate hereunder, or permit the Premises to be
occupied by anyone other than Tenant or Tenant's employees, without
Landlord's prior written consent in each instance. Any assignment
or subletting which is not in compliance with this Article VIII
shall be void and, at the option of Landlord, shall constitute a
default by Tenant under this Lease and entitle Landlord to
terminate this Lease. Consent by Landlord to one or more
assignments of this Lease or to one' or more sublettings of the
Premises shall not operate to waive Landlord's rights under this
Article VIII. The voluntary or involuntary surrender of this Lease
by Tenant or a mutual cancellation hereof shall not work a merger,
and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate all or any existing
subleases or subtenancies or shall operate as an assignment to
Landlord of such subleases or subtenancies. If Tenant is a
corporation which, under the then current guidelines published by
the Commissioner of Corporations of the State of California, is not
deemed a public corporation, or 'is an unincorporated association or
partnership, the transfer, assignment or hypothecation of any stock
or interest in such corporation, association or partnership in the
aggregate in excess of forty-nine percent (49t) or such lesser
interest as may constitute a controlling interest, shall be deemed
an assignment within the meaning and provisions of this Section.

sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first notify
Landlord of its desire to do so and shall submit in writing to
Landlord (i) the name of the proposed --subtenant or assignee; (ii)
the nature of the proposed subtenant's or assignee's business to be
carried on in the Premises; (iii) the terms and provisions of the

receipt of the information specified in subparagraph (b) above,
Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, elect to (i) consent to
the subletting or assignment upon the terms and to the subtenant or
assignee proposed, subject to any conditions deemed appropriate by
Landlord,. as determined in its reasonable discretion, including,
but not limited to, the condition that Tenant pay to Landlord upon
receipt any and all amounts (a) by which the basic rent and
additional rent paid by such subtenant exceeds the sum of the rent
and additional rent to be paid by Tenant to Landlord for such space
under this Lease, or (b) of profit received by Tenant from such
assignee; (ii) refuse to give its consent, (iii) sublease the
Premises or the portion thereof so proposed to be subleased by
Tenant or take an assignment of Tenant's leasehold estate hereunder
or such part thereof as shall be specified in said notice upon the
same terns (excluding terms relating to purchase of personal
property, the use of Tenant's name or the continuation of Tenant's
business) as those offered to the proposed subtenant or assignee,
as the case may be; or (iv) terminate this Lease as to the portion
(including all) of the Premises so proposed to be subleased or
assigned with a proportionate abatement in the rent payable
hereunder, effective as of the date of the proposed sublease or
assignment. If the Lease is partially terminated as to the portion
of the Premises proposed to be assigned or subleased, a
proportionate abatement will be made in the rent payable hereunder

a partition wall satisfying Landlord's reasonable requirements,
separating such portion of the Premises from the balance of the
'Premises, which partition wall shall be completed by Tenant at
Tenant's sole cost and expense within sixty (60) days of such
election by Landlord, or (b) the effective date of the partial
terminaticn of this Lease. If Landlord consents to such assignment
or subletting, Tenant may within ninety (90) days after the date of
Landlord's consent, enter into a valid assignment or sublease of
the Premises or portion thereof upon the terms and conditions
described in the info=ation required to be furnished by Tenant to
Landlord pursuant to Section 8.1(b) above, or upon other terms not
more favorable to Tenant; provided, however, that any material
change in such terms shall be subject to Landlord's consent as
provided in this Section 8.1. Failure of Landlord to exercise any
option set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above within the
thirty.(30) day period for Landlord's notice shall be deemed
refusal of Landlord to consent to the proposed subletting or
assignment.
SECTION 8.2 NO RELEASE OF TENANT. No subletting or
assignment, even with the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant
of its obligation to pay the rent and to perform all of the other
obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. Each assignee or
transferee, other than Landlord, shall assume, as provided above,
all obligations of Tenant under this Lease and shall be and remain
liable jointly and severally with Tenant for the payment of the
rent, and for the due performance of all the terms, covenants,
conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant's part to be
performed for the term of this Lease. No assignment shall be
binding on Landlord unless such assignee or Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord a counterpart of such assignment which contains a covenant
of assumption by the assignee satisfactory in substance and form to
Landlord, consistent with the requirements of this Article Vill,
but the failure or refusal of the assignee to execute such
instrument of assumption shall not release or discharge the
assignee from its liability as set forth above. The acceptance of
any payment due hereunder by Landlord from any other person shall
not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this
Lease or to be a consent to any assignment or subletting.
SECTION 8.3 TRANSFER FEE. If Landlord consents to an
assignment, sublease or any other transfer by Tenant of all or a
portion of Tenant's interest under this Lease, Tenant shall pay, or
cause to be paid, in each case a transfer fee of SEVEN HUNDRED

Landlord's consent, to assign this Lease and/or sublet the entire
Premises to any person, corporation or entity (a) which owns one
hundred percent (loot) of Tenant's stock (Tenant's parent); (b) any
corporation in which Tenant or Tenant's parent owns one hundred
percent (loot) of the stock thereof (Tenant's subsidiary or sister

transfer; (ii) No change in use of the Premises shall result by
reason of such transfer; (iii) Tenant shall give Landlord written
notice of said transfer at least thirty (30) days prior to said

subsidiary and in the event of an assignment to a company acquiring
all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of Tenant,
the assignee has a net worth (in 1998 dollars) equal to or greater

Lease. No such assignment or. other transfer shall release the
original Tenant or any assignee thereof from liability under this
Lease.

earned after the date of the termination hereof until the time of
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves
could have been reasonably avoided;
The worth at the time of award of the amount by
which the -unpaid rent, charges, and additional rent for the balance

but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the
Premises, expenses of reletting, including brokerage commissions,

Section 1951.4 and continue this Lease in effect without
terminating Tenant's right to possession even though Tenant has
breached this Lease and abandoned the Premises and to enforce all
of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in

(iv) In the event of default by reason of any. of the
events stated in subparagraph (f) of Section 13.1 above, this Lease
or any interest in and to the Premises shall not become an asset in
any of such proceedings and, in any such event and in addition to

hereof ended and to re-enter the Premises and take possession
thereof and remove all persons therefrom, and Tenant and its
creditors (other than Landlord) shall have no further claim thereon
or hereunder.
(b) Landlord shall be under no obligation to observe or
perform any covenant of this Lease on its part to be observed or
performed which accrues after the date of any default by Tenant
hereunder. In any action for unlawful detainer commenced by
Landlord against Tenant by reason of -any default hereunder, the
reasonable rental value of the Premises for the period of the
unlawful detainer shall be deemed to be the amount of the basic
annual rent and additional rent reserved in this Lease for such

reserved to Landlord herein, and those rights, powers and remedies
of Landlord under any other agreement now or hereafter in force
267/01400-nl/3236713.1 OVUM - 2 0 -
between Landlord and Tenant, including those not specifically
described herein, shall be cumulative, and, except as otherwise
provided by California statutory law in effect at the time,
Landlord nay pursue any or all of such rights and remedies, at the
same time, or otherwise.
(c) No delay or omission of Landlord to exercise any right or
remedy shall be construed as a waiver of any such right or remedy
or of any default by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance by Landlord
of rent or any additional rent hereunder shall not be (i) a waiver
of any preceding breach or default by Tenant of any provision
thereof, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular
rent or any additional rent accepted, regardless of Landlord's
knowledge of such preceding breach or default at the time of
acceptance of such rent or additional rent, or (ii) a waiver of
Landlord's right to exercise any remedy available to Landlord by
virtue of such breach or default. No payment by Tenant or receipt
by Landlord of a lesser amount than the rent herein stipulated
shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest due
stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any
check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be
deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord shall accept such
check or payment without prejudice to Landlords right to recover
the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease
provided. Tenant hereby waives any right of redemption or relief
from forfeiture under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections
1174 or 1179, or under any other present or future law, in the
event Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes possession of the
Premises by reason of any default by Tenant hereunder. No act or
thing done by Landlord or Landlord's agents during the term of this
Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises,
and no agreement to accept a surrender shall be valid unless in
writing and signed by Landlord. No employee of Landlord or of
Landlord's agents shall have any power to accept the keys to the
Premises prior to the termination of this Lease, and the delivery
of the keys to any such employee shall not operate a termination of
this Lease or a surrender of the Premises.
SECTION 13.3 INTEREST ON TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS; LATE
PAYMENTS.
(a) Any installment of rent due under this Lease or any other
sum not paid to Landlord when due (other than interest) shall bear
interest at the maximum rate allowed by law from the date such
payment is due until paid, provided, however, that the payment of
such interest shall not excuse or cure the default.
(b) Tenant hereby acknowledges that the late payment by
Tenant to Landlord of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause
Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact
amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such
costs 'may include, but are not limited to, administrative,
processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be
imposed on Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed
covering the premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or
any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or
Landlord's designee within five (5) days after the date due, then
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the interest provided
above, a late charge in the amount of five percent Mk) of the
delinquent installment of rent. The parties agree that such late
charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost
Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant.
Acceptance of such late charge by Landlord shall in no event
constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such
overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of -the
other rights and remedies granted hereunder.
(c) Following each second consecutive late payment of rent,
Landlord shall have the option (i) to require that beginning with
the first payment of rent next due, rent shall no longer be paid in
monthly installments but shall be payable quarterly three (3)
months in advance and/or (ii) to require that Tenant increase the
2671014E20 M11323b713.1 &0411399 - 2 1 -
amount, if any, of the security deposit required under Section 3.2
as listed in Item 9 of the Basic Lease Provisions by one hundred
percent (100%), which additional security deposit shall be retained
by Landlord, and may be applied by Landlord, in the manner provided
in Section 3.2.
SECTION 13.4 RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM. All covenants and
agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terns of this
Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and
expense and without any abatement of rent. 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, or to provide any insurance or evidence of
insurance to be provided by Tenant, and such failure shall continue
beyond any applicable grace period set forth in Section 13.1, then
in addition to any other remedies provided herein, Landlord may,
but shall not be obligated so to do, and without waiving or
releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant, make any such
payment or perform any such act on Tenant's part to be made or
performed as provided in this Lease or to provide such insurance.
Any payment or performance of any act or the provision of any such
insurance by Landlord on Tenant's behalf shall not give rise to any
responsibility of Landlord to continue making the same or similar
payments or performing the same or similar acts. All costs,
expenses and other sums incurred or paid by Landlord in connection
therewith, together with interest at the maximum rate permitted by
law from the date incurred or paid by Landlord shall be deemed to
be additional rent hereunder and shall be paid by Tenant with and
at the same time as the next monthly installment of basic annual
rent hereunder, and any default therein shall constitute a breach
of the covenants and conditions of this Lease.
SECTION 13.5 DEFAULT BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall not be
deemed to be in default in the performance of any obligation
required to be performed by it under this Lease unless and until it
has failed to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after
written notice by Tenant to Landlord,- and to any mortgagee or
beneficiary of a deed of trust with an interest in any encumbrance
affecting Landlord's interest in the Premises, specifying in
reasonable detail the nature and extent of any such failure;
provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligation is
such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its
performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if
it commences such performance within such thirty (30) day period
and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. If,
after notice to Landlord of default, Landlord fails to cure such
default as provided herein, then Tenant shall have the right to
cure such default at Landlord's expense. Tenant shall not have the
right to terminate this Lease or to withhold, reduce or offset any
amount against any payments of basic annual rent or any other
charges due and payable hereunder, and Tenant's remedy shall be
limited to damages and/or an injunction. It is expressly
understood and agreed to that any Money judgment resulting from any
default or other claim arising under this Lease shall be satisfied
only out of the rents, issues, profits or other income ("Income")
actually received from the operation of the Building and no other
real, personal or mixed property of Landlord (the term "Landlord"
for purposes of this Section only shall mean any and all partners,
both general and/or limited, if any, which comprise Landlord),
wherever situated, shall be subject to levy on any such judgment
obtained against Landlord and whether or not such Income is
sufficient for the payment of such. judgment, Tenant will not
institute any further action, suit, claim or demand, in law or in
equity, against Landlord for or on the account of such deficiency.
Tenant hereby waives, to the extent waivable under law, any right
to satisfy said money judgment against Landlord except from Income
received by Landlord for the operation of the Building.

shall bring any action for any relief against the other,

to recover its attorney's fees and costs, including without
limitation, expert witness fees, photocopying, facsimile, messenger

action is prosecuted to judgment.
