10.1 Non -Termination. Except as provided herein, no destruction or damage

destroyed or rendered wholly untenantable by fire or other casualty required to be
insured against by Lessee, Lessor shall promptly proceed to obtain insurance
proceeds and take all steps necessary to begin reconstruction and, immediately upon
0

replacement of the Improvements to substantially the same condition as they are
required to be maintained in under this Lease, so long as the insurance proceeds are
sufficient to cover the actual cost of restoration, and shall complete the same as soon
as possible so that Lessee may continue in occupancy. If, however, the insurance
proceeds are insufficient or the then -existing laws of any other governmental agencies
with jurisdiction over the Premises do not permit the restoration, Lessor may elect to
terminate this Lease by giving notice to Lessee.
Notwithstanding the above, the Lessor is not required to obtain
earthquake coverage insurance and shall not be obligated to reconstruct following
damage sustained due to an earthquake unless such damage is covered by other
provisions of its insurance policy (i.e. fire).
10.3 Continued Operations. During any period of repair, Lessee shall
continue, or cause the continuation of, the operation of its programs on the Premises
and use of the Facility by community groups to the extent reasonably practicable.

Rent payable hereunder shall not be deferred and shall not be abated. Upon
completion of such repair and restoration, Lessee shall promptly refixture and restock
the Improvements, if necessary, substantially to the condition prior to the casualty,
or as otherwise required by this Lease, whichever is greater, and shall reopen if
closed by the casualty.,
ARTICLE XI. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

the contrary, Lessee agrees and covenants (which covenants shall be binding upon
the heirs, executors, and administrators of Lessee) that Lessee shall not, either;
voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, sell, encumber, pledge or otherwise transfer
all or any part of Lessee's leasehold estate hereunder, or permit the Premises to be
occupied by anyone other than Lessee, Lessee's employees or invitees, or sublet the
Premises, or any portion thereof, without Lessor's prior written' consent. No
assignment, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law, under legal
process or proceedings, by receivership, in bankruptcy, or otherwise, and no
subletting shall be valid or effective without such prior written consent, and at
Lessor's election, shall constitute a default.
11.2 Lessee Remains Obligated. No subletting or assignment, even with the
consent of Lessor, shall relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay Rent and all of its other
obligations hereunder. The acceptance by Lessor of any payment due hereunder from
10
any person or entity other than Lessee shall not be construed as a waiver by Lessor
of any provision of this Lease or as a consent to any assignment or subletting.
Consent by Lessor to an assignment of the Lease or to a subletting of the Premises
shall not operate as a waiver or estoppel to the future enforcement by Lessor of its
rights pursuant to this Lease.

shall mean and include any one or more of the following events or occurrences:

reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, if Lessee shall not promptly, within thirty
(30) days after receipt of such notice, commence to remedy the situation by a means

of all or a substantial portion of Lessee's assets or of Lessee's interest in this Lease;

expiration of any applicable cure period, Lessor may:
11
(i) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises
by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and
Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor.
In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee:
(1) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid
Rent which had been earned at the time of termination;
(2) The worth at the time of award of the amount
by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after
termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such loss that
Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided;
(3) The worth at the time of award of the amount by
which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of
award exceeds the amount of such loss that Lessee proves could be
reasonably avoided; and
(4) Any other amount deemed necessary and/or
allowable by applicable statute or decision to compensate Lessor for all
the detriment proximately caused by Lessee's failure to perform its
obligations under this Lease or which, in the ordinary course of events,

of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting,
expenses of restoring the Premises to the condition required hereunder
(if applicable), reasonable attorneys' fees, and any.other reasonable
costs.
The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in

at a rate equal to ten percent (10%) from the dates such amounts
accrued to Lessor until the date of payment by Lessee.
(ii) Lessor may terminate this Lease by express written notice
to Lessee of its election to do so. Such termination shall not relieve
Lessee of any obligation hereunder which has accrued prior to the date
of such termination. In the event of such termination, Lessor shall be
entitled to recover from Lessee the amounts determined pursuant to
paragraph (1) above.
(b) Reasonable Rental Value. In any action for unlawful
detainer commenced by Lessor against Lessee by reason of any default hereunder,
12
the reasonable rental value of the Premises for the period of the unlawful detainer
shall be deemed to be the amount of Rent and other charges reserved in this Lease
for such period unless Lessor or Lessee shall prove to the contrary by competent
evidence.
(c) Cumulative Remedies. Except as may be specifically
provided herein, the rights and remedies reserved to Lessor and Lessee herein,
including those not specifically described, shall be cumulative and, except as provided
by California statutory or decisional law in effect at the time, either Lessor or Lessee
may pursue any or all of such rights and remedies at the same time or otherwise.
(d) Lessor's Non -Waiver. No delay or omission of Lessor to
exercise any right or remedy shall be construed as a waiver of any right or remedy
or of any default by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance by Lessor of Rent or any
additional Rent hereunder shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach or default by
Lessee of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular
Rent accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach or default
at the time of acceptance of such rent, or a waiver of Lessor's right to exercise any
remedy available to Lessor by virtue of such breach or default. The acceptance of
any payment from a debtor in possession, a trustee, a receiver or any other person
acting on behalf of Lessee or Lessee's estate shall not waive or cure a default under
Section 12.1 (e).
(e) Lessor's Reentry. Lessee hereby irrevocably consents to
Lessor's peaceable reentry, if Lessor so elects, to the Premises upon the occurrence
of any of the events of default specified in Section 12.2 (a) (ii) above, including the
expiration of any applicable cure period.
(f) Lessor's Advances. In the event of any default by Lessee
in the payment of money, other than Rent, or the performance of Lessee's obligations
required under this Lease, and the expiration of any period expressly provided for
herein for Lessee to cure said default after the delivery of notice by Lessor, in addition
to the other remedies herein granted to Lessor, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated
to do so, and without waiving or releasing Lessee from any obligations of this Lease,
make any payment and perform any other act on Lessee's part to be made or
performed as provided in this Lease. All sums paid by Lessor and all necessary
incidental costs, together with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per
annum from the date of the payment by Lessor shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor
on demand. The sums shall be deemed to be additional Rent and subject to the same
consequences as herein provided for failure to pay Rent.
12.3 Default by Lessor. Lessor shall not be deemed to be in default in the
performance of any obligation required to be performed by it hereunder unless and
13
until it has failed to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after written notice
by Lessee to Lessor specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of any such
failure; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is such that more
than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Lessor shall not be
deemed to be in default if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30)
day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion.
12.4 Legal Expenses and Collection Costs. If either party incurs any expense,
including actual costs of collection, reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses of
discovery, preparation for litigation, expert witness fees and litigation expenses and
costs, in connection with any action or proceeding instituted by either party by
reason of any default , or alleged default of the other party hereunder, the party
prevailing in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover its reasonable
expenses from the other party. For purposes of this provision, in any unlawful
detainer or other action or proceeding instituted by Lessor based upon any default or
alleged default by Lessee hereunder, Lessor shall be deemed the prevailing party if (a)
judgement is entered in favor of Lessor or (b) prior to trial or judgement Lessee shall
pay the Rent and charges claimed by Lessor, or eliminate the condition(s), cease the
act(s) or otherwise cure the omission(s) claimed by Lessor to constitute a default by
Lessee hereunder.
ARTICLE XIII. HOLDING OVER
This Lease shall terminate and become null and void without further notice
upon the expiration of the Term herein specified, and any holding over by Lessee after
such expiration shall not constitute a renewal or extension hereof or give Lessee any
rights under this Lease, except when in writing signed by both parties hereto.
ARTICLE XIV. ACCESS BY LESSOR
In addition to the right of Lessor to reserve use of the Facility under Article IV,
Section 4.2, Lessor and those agents, contractors, servants and employees of Lessor
who are identified in writing to Lessee shall have the right, after reasonable notice to
Lessee, to enter the Premises during normal business hours (a) to examine the
Premises, to perform any obligations of Lessor or to exercise any right or remedy
reserved to Lessor in this Lease; (b) to exhibit the Premises to prospective purchasers,
mortgagees or lessees of Lessor's interest therein; (c)to make such repairs as Lessor
may be entitled to make after a default by Lessee under Article XII above; and (d) to
take all materials into and upon the Premises that may be required in. connection with
14
such repairs, provided that any such entry shall be performed in such a manner that
does not unreasonably interfere with Lessee's use of the Premises. If Lessor
exercises its rights of entry in compliance with this Article XIV, such entry shall not
constitute a constructive or actual eviction of Lessee, in whole or in part, and the
Rent shall not abate while any such repairs are being made. If, during the last month
of the Term, Lessee shall have removed all or substantially all of Lessee's property
therefrom, Lessor may immediately enter and alter, renovate and redecorate the
Premises without elimination or abatement of Rent and without other compensation
and such action shall have no effect upon this Lease. Nothing herein contained,
however, shall be deemed or construed to impose upon Lessor any obligation,
responsibility or liability whatsoever for the care, supervision or repair of the
Premises.
ARTICLE XV. QUIET ENJOYMENT
Upon payment by Lessee of the Rents provided herein, and upon the
observance and performance of all of the covenants, terms and conditions on the part
of Lessee to be performed hereunder, Lessor covenants and warrants that Lessee
may peaceably and quietly. hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term.
ARTICLE XVI. FURNITURE, FIXTURE, AND EQUIPMENT FINANCING
It is contemplated that during the Term of this Lease, Lessee shall place or
cause the placement from time to time of Furniture, Fixtures or Equipment
(collectively "FF&E") on the Premises which shall be subject to lease and/or purchase
financing encumbrances (collectively "FF&E Financing"). Prior to Lessee having the
right to place any FF&E on the Premises subject to FF&E Financing, Lessee shall be
required to deliver to Lessor written notice of any such proposed FF&E Financing at
least sixty (60) days prior to the creation of such FF&E Finaincing, together with
documentation in reasonable detail so that Lessor may review and approve or
disapprove, in Lessor's reasonable discretion, the FF&E Financing. Such information
shall include, but not be limited to, the following: (1) a complete description of the
FF&E; (ii) the lease term, Rent payments and security deposits required in connection
with any leasing of FF&E; (iii) the purchase price, terms of payment and conditions
of any purchase or loan in connection with purchasing of FF&E; and (iv) copies of all
relevant documents to be executed between Lessee and the lender, seller or lessor
of the particular FF&E in question. For a period of thirty (30) days following receipt
by Lessor of the notice from Lessee together with all of the information required
above, Lessor may approve or disapprove such FF&E Financing by written notice to
Lessee. Lessor's approval of any such FF&E Financing shall not be unreasonably
withheld. In the event Lessor reasonably objects to all or a portion of such FF&E
15
Financing, Lessor shall within said thirty (30) day period give Lessee written notice
of its objection, detailing the reasons therefor. In such event, Lessee shall be
prohibited from entering into such FF&E Financing but Lessee may submit to Lessor
such response to Lessor's objections and/or revisions to the terms and conditions of
the FF&E Financing in order to satisfy Lessor's objections thereto. Any such newly
submitted information shall again be subject to Lessor's thirty (30) day right to review
and reasonably object thereto. Lessor's failure to timely object within said thirty (30)
day period to any such proposed FF&E Financing for which proper notice has been
given by Lessee to Lessor shall constitute approval of the particular FF&E Financing
in question and no further approval by Lessor for such FF&E Financing shall be
required. Lessor's rights hereunder shall not be construed as requiring Lessor to
participate in any way in any such FF&E Financing nor shall approval by Lessor of any
such FF&E Financing obligate Lessor in any manner.
ARTICLE XVII. TAXES.
Lessee shall be.responsible for, and agrees to pay, prior to delinquency, any
and all taxes, assessments, installments of taxes, levies, fees, and other
governmental charges of every kind or nature (hereinafter collectively called "Taxes")

or other taxing or assessing authorities or governmental agencies or entities upon,
against, or with respect to (i) the Premises or any portion thereof; (ii) all fixtures,

alterations, additions, and improvements of whatsoever kind or nature, if .any, made
to the Premises or the Improvements; (iv) rentals or other charges payable by Lessee
to Lessor (other than state and federal income taxes applicable to Lessor); and (v) any
other interest in the Premises (including the leasehold interest created by this Lease),

assessed as real or personal property, and irrespective of whether any of such items
are assessed to or against Lessor, Lessee or any other person.
ARTICLE XVIII. FORCE MAJEURE

is delayed by reason of the act or neglect of the other party, act of God, stormy or
inclement weather, strike, labor dispute, boycott, lockout or other like defensive .
action by such party, inability to obtain labor or materials, governmental restrictions,
riot, insurrections, war, catastrophe, casualty, act of the public enemy, or any other
cause, whether similar or dissimilar, beyond the reasonable control of the party from

commencement or completion thereof shall be extended for a period equal to the
period during which performance is so delayed.
