In the event there are not two or more Monetary Defaults in the first ten Lease Years, then, promptly following the tenth Lease Year, Landlord shall return one-half of the then outstanding Deposit to Grand Pacific Carlsbad, L.P. Following Landlord's application of any portion ofthe Deposit to the payment of Rent, the next payments by Tenant to Landlord shall be applied to replenishing the Deposit to its then required amount and only after the Deposit is so replenished shall such payments be applied to Rent. Landlord shall hold the Deposit in an interest-bearing account, and all interest earned thereon shall become a portion of the Deposit. For the avoidance of doubt, in accordance with Section 22.1, a Monetary Default shall not occur until and unless the underlying failure to make any payment of Rent to Landlord when due is not cured within ten (10) days following Tenant's receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord. 3. Payment of Annual Rent.

In addition to such interest, Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of any amount due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, if: (a) any Annual Rent is not received by Landlord within five (5) days after it is due; or (b) any other amount due by Tenant to Landlord hereunder is not paid within ten (1 0) days after Landlord's notice to Tenant that the payment is delinquent; then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the administrative costs and foregone interest and other income Landlord will incur and/or suffer by reason of the 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. 5. Use of Premises. Tenant may use the Premises for the Permitted Use and for no other use without Landlord's consent. Tenant shall comply with all laws and ordinances and the orders, rules, regulations and requirements of all federal, state and municipal governments and appropriate departments, commissions, boards and officers thereof that are applicable to the Premises and the Improvements (collectively, "Laws").

Tenant's obligation to comply with all Laws, includes the obligation to alter, maintain and restore the Premises and Improvements in compliance with all Laws, even if the Laws are enacted after the date of this Lease, even if compliance entails costs to Tenant of a substantial nature, and even if compliance requires structural alterations. 6. Impositions. 6.1 Impositions in General. Tenant shall pay, before any penalty or interest may be added thereto for the non-payment thereof, all real and personal property taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, and other governmental charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen, of any kind and nature whatsoever (all of which taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, and other governmental charges are hereinafter referred to as "Impositions") that are assessed, levied, imposed or become a lien upon the Premises and/or the Improvements, or become payable, during the Term of this Lease; provided, however, that if, by law, any such Impositions may at the option of the taxpayer be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Impositions), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Impositions) in installments and shall pay only such installments as may become due during the Term of this Lease as the same respectively become due and before any penalty or interest may be added thereto, for the non-payment of any such installment and interest; and provided, further, that any Impositions relating to a fiscal period of the taxing authority, a part of which period is included within the Term of this Lease and a part of which is included outside of the Term of this Lease, shall (whether or not such Impositions shall be DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -7- assessed, levied, imposed or become a lien upon the Premises and/or the Improvements, or shall become payable, during the Term of this Lease) be adjusted between Landlord and Tenant as of the Rent Commencement Date or the expiration of the Term of this Lease, as applicable, so that Landlord shall pay that portion of such Impositions (or receive any tax refund or tax credit) that relates to that part of the fiscal period outside of the Term ofthis Lease and Tenant shall pay that portion of such Impositions (or receive any tax refund or tax credit) which relates to the period during the Term of this Lease. Nothing contained in this Lease shall require Tenant to pay any franchise, corporate, estate, inheritance, succession, capital levy, stamp tax or transfer tax of Landlord, or any income, excess profits or revenue tax or any other tax, assessment, charge or levy upon the Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease, nor shall any tax, assessment, charge or levy of the character hereinabove in this Section described be deemed to be included within the term "Impositions" as defined in this Section 6.1. 6.2 Payment. Except when any Law requires otherwise, Tenant shall pay the Impositions for the period commencing with the Commencement Date to the applicable authority, before delinquency. Tenant covenants, upon request of Landlord, to furnish to Landlord for inspection, official receipts of the appropriate taxing authority, or other evidence satisfactory to Landlord, evidencing the payment of any Impositions. 6.3 Contest. Tenant shall have the right to contest the amount and/or validity, or to seek a refund, in whole or in part, of any Impositions by appropriate proceedings, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.1 above, this shall not be deemed or construed in any way as relieving, modifying or extending Tenant's covenants to pay any such Impositions at the time and in the manner as provided in this Section 6 except to the extent permitted by the procedures and proceedings by which Impositions may be legally contested. 7. Maintenance, Repairs, Replacements and Compliance with Laws. Tenant, at its sole expense, shall (i) keep the Improvements and the Premises clean and in first class condition free of accumulations of rubbish, (ii) make all repairs and replacements necessary to cause the Improvements to satisfy the Time Share Standard or, if the Permitted Use is no longer the operation of time share units, be in a first class condition for the then Permitted Use, and (iii) be solely responsible for any and all repairs, alterations and/or corrective work to the Improvements as may be required from time to time to comply with applicable Laws, including, but not limited to: seismic upgrades, handicap access, and fire protection systems. For so long as the Permitted Use is the operation of time share units, Tenant shall provide for an annual reserve for capital expenditures for furniture, fixtures, and equipment for the Improvements, consistent with the requirements of the time share units operator, association or manager. Further, Tenant shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances and regulations now in force, or which may hereafter be in force, applicable to the use of the Premises by Tenant and its subtenants and the Improvements constructed by Tenant at the Premises, all at Tenant's sole expense. In the event of any changes in such laws, ordinances or regulations, Tenant shall be obligated to comply with such changes when and if such compliance is required under the applicable laws, ordinances and regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for compliance with all requirements of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (as it may be amended and as supplemented by further laws from time to time) as applicable to the Improvements constructed by Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to furnish any services or facilities or to make any repairs or alterations to the Premises or the Improvements and Tenant hereby assumes the full DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -8- and sole responsibility for the condition, operation, repair, replacement, maintenance, compliance with law and management of the Premises and the Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, If Tenant refuses or neglects to complete repairs required of Tenant hereunder within thirty (30) days after Landlord's written demand (or if such repairs cannot with due diligence be wholly completed within such 30-day period, within a reasonable period of time thereafter), Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make the repairs, and if Landlord makes such repairs, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand, as additional Rent, the reasonable cost thereof (unless Tenant in good faith disputes such costs or whether the repairs were required of Tenant hereunder), with interest at the Default Rate from the date which is ten (10) days following Tenant's receipt of Landlord's written request therefor until repaid by Tenant. 8. Utilities. Tenant is responsible, at its own cost, for supplying utilities to the Premises, including the payment of hookup fees, deposits and similar charges. Tenant will pay directly to the appropriate utility company or governmental agency all bills for gas, water, sanitary sewer, electricity, telephone and other public or private utilities used by Tenant or provided to the Premises from and after the Commencement Date. 9.

If any such mechanic's lien shall be filed, Tenant shall, within ninety (90) days after written notice of the filing thereof (but in any event prior to the entry of a judgment for foreclosure), cause the same to be discharged of record by payment, deposit, bond, order of a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise. Subject to the foregoing provisions, if Tenant shall fail to cause such lien to be discharged within the required time period, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, and following written notice to Tenant of its election to do so, discharge the same either by paying the amount claimed to be due or by procuring the discharge of such lien by deposit or by bonding proceedings. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialman for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any specific improvements, alteration to or repair of the Premises or the Improvements or any part thereof. 10. Insurance. 10.1 Liability Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and keep in force from and after the Commencement Date a policy or policies of Combined Single Limit Bodily Injury and Property Damage Insurance, including Personal and Advertising Injury, Blanket Contractual Liability, Liquor Liability (but only during such times that the service of alcoholic beverages on the Premises occurs, it being understood that as of the date of this Lease under California law an association cannot obtain a license for the service of alcohol) Garage Liability, Garagekeepers Legal Liability, and Non-Owned Auto Liability in an amount not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) (in Constant Dollars) for injury, damages, or death resulting from any one accident or occurrence.

The policy or policies shall be stated to be primary and non-contributing with any insurance which may be carried by Landlord, and shall insure performance by Tenant of the indemnity provisions of Section 11 to the extent such indemnities are within the scope of coverage under such policies. Landlord, the City of Carlsbad and the Carlsbad Municipal Water District shall be named as "Additional Insured" on all of the above policies, and the full limits under such policies that are available to Tenant as the named insured shall also be available and applicable to each of the "Additional Insureds". The purpose and intent of the parties is that Tenant shall have, during the Term, such amount of liability insurance as will be sufficient to protect Landlord from any reasonable liability with respect to the Premises. If at any time during the Term, Landlord shall deem the limits of the liability insurance then carried to be insufficient by reason of any reasonable factor (e.g., inflation; the risk incident to use of the Premises; the nature and amount of the awards for liabilities then being given), the parties shall endeavor to agree upon the proper and reasonable limits for such insurance then to be carried. 10.2 Property Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and keep in full force from and after the Commencement Date a policy or policies of property insurance covering loss or damage to the Improvements providing protection against all perils included within the standard insurance industry coverage classifications of "special form". The above policy or policies shall include a full replacement cost endorsement, debris removal endorsement, a building code upgrade or ordinance and law endorsement, and insure all the Improvements and trade fixtures on the Premises, as well as all personal property located on or used in operation of the Premises for one hundred percent (100%) of the then current replacement cost. The policy or policies shall be subject to a commercially reasonable deductible. 10.3 Business Interruption Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and keep in force from and after the Rent Commencement Date a policy of rental loss or business interruption insurance in an amount at least sufficient to pay, for a period of twenty-four (24) months following any applicable loss, the sum of the following: (i) twenty-four (24) months' rent at the then applicable Annual Rent; (ii) the Impositions provided for in Section 6; and (iii) the insurance premiums provided for in Section 10. 10.4 Insurance Requirements. The insurance required to be carried under Sections 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 shall be placed with responsible insurance companies having an A.M. Best rating of at least A-and an A.M. Best Financial Size Category rating of not less than Class VII as shall be selected by Tenant. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord certificates of said insurance and of renewals thereof from time to time promptly following request therefor from Landlord, and shall obtain the written commitment of each such insurer to provide each additional insured with thirty (30) days written notice of any cancellation thereof, or amendments with respect to reductions in policy limits or coverages. Any insurance required to be maintained by Tenant may be maintained under a so-called "blanket policy" insuring other parties and other locations so long as the amount of insurance required to be provided hereunder for the Premises is not thereby diminished. 10.5 Application of Proceeds. Unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to Section 13, all policies of property insurance described in Section 10.2 shall provide for payment DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -10- of loss in excess of One Million Dollars ($1 ,000,000.00) (in Constant Dollars) to the Lender (or if there is no Lender, payment of loss shall be to an escrow holder mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant) to be held in trust and applied to the repair and restoration of the Premises, subject to the conditions set forth in the leasehold mortgage (if applicable) regarding such application and Sections 13 and 17. When the Improvements have been fully repaired and restored, any excess shall be paid to Tenant. 10.6 Waiver of Subrogation. Tenant releases Landlord for loss or damage arising out of or incident to perils insured against pursuant to Sections 10.1 and 10.2, which perils occur in, on, or about the Premises even if due to the negligence of Landlord or its agents, employees, contractors, and/or invitees. Tenant shall, upon obtaining the policies of insurance required under Section 10.1 and 1 0.2, give notice to the insurance carrier or carriers that the foregoing waiver is contained in this Lease. 11. Indemnities. 11.1 Mutual Indemnities. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord, the City of Carlsbad, the Carlsbad Municipal Water District and its and their officers, agents, employees, officials, administrators, representatives and contractors (collectively, "Landlord Parties") harmless from any and all claims, losses, liens, causes of action, fines, penalties, costs, liabilities, damages or expenses, including attorneys' fees ("Claims" ), arising from (i) the use or occupancy of the Premises from and after the Commencement Date by Tenant or any of its officers, owners, members, agents, representatives, employees, contractors, guests, invitees, licensees and subtenants (collectively, "Tenant Parties" ), (ii) claims of lien of laborers or materialmen or others for work performed or materials or supplies furnished for Tenant or persons validly claiming under it; and (iii) any default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any obligation to be performed by Tenant pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that Tenant's obligations hereunder shall not apply to any Claims to the extent caused by or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord Parties. Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant and the Tenant Parties harmless from any and all Claims arising from Landlord's or any of the Landlord's Parties' gross negligence or willful misconduct. 11.2 Notification of Claim. A party entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1 above (the "Indemnified Party") shall notify the other party (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly of any claim, action or proceeding and cooperate fully in the defense. Upon receipt of such notification, the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of the claim, action, or proceeding, including the employment of counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party and the prompt payment of the attorneys' fees and costs of such counsel. If the Indemnified Party at any time reasonably determines that having common counsel would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to promptly assume the defense of the claim, action, or proceeding or to promptly employ counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party may, in its sole discretion, employ separate counsel to represent or defend the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of such separate counsel within thirty (30) days of receiving an itemized billing therefor. At its sole discretion, the Indemnified Party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any claim, action or proceeding, but such participation shall not relieve the DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -11- Indemnifying Party of any obligation imposed by this Lease. Failure to promptly defend or indemnify the Indemnified Party is a material breach which shall entitle the Indemnified Party to all remedies available under law, including but not limited to specific performance and claims for damages. 11.3 Survivability. The Indemnifying Party's obligations to hold harmless, indemnify and defend the Indemnified Party shall survive the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease with respect to matters occurring prior to such expiration or termination. 12.

The work of any Improvements shall be prosecuted with reasonable dispatch. General liability and property damage insurance (which may be effected by endorsement, if obtainable, on the insurance required to be carried pursuant to Section 10 above) with limits of not less than those required to DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -12- be carried pursuant to Section 10, shall be maintained by Tenant at all times when any work is in process in connection with any Improvements. 12.5 No work involving an expenditure in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (in Constant Dollars) shall commence until Tenant shall have given Landlord ten (10) days prior written notice of such work in order that Landlord may post and/or file notices of non-responsibility or notices of a similar nature. 12.6 If the estimated cost of any work shall be in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (in Constant Dollars), Tenant shall, prior to the commencement of any such Improvements, deliver to Landlord evidence that Tenant has sufficient funds available to pay for the anticipated costs of such Improvements, which evidence may include, without limitation, a construction loan from a Lender. 13.

Landlord's Remedies. 23.1 While an Event of Default exists, Landlord is entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the right to: (i) Continue this Lease in effect by not terminating Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, in which event Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent specified in this Lease as it becomes due; (ii) Terminate this Lease and bring an action to recover from Tenant the amounts set forth in Section 23.3 below and/or to re-enter and retain possession of the Premises in the manner provided by the laws of unlawful detainer in the State of California then in effect. 23.2 In the event of any termination and entry or taking possession of the Property as provided above, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove from the Property all or any part of the personal property located therein and may place the same in storage at a public warehouse at the expense and risk of the owner or owners thereof. 23.3 Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease under the provisions of Sections 23.l(ii) above, Landlord may recover from Tenant as damages: (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 amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -20- (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; plus (v) at Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of California. As used in the foregoing provisions, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the Default Rate. As used herein, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank, at the time of award, plus one percent (1 %). 23.4 Limitation on Termination for Non-Monetary Default. Notwithstanding anything in Section 23 above or elsewhere in this Lease to the contrary, if, within ten (10) business days following Tenant's receipt of a notice of default under Section 22.2 above (a "Non- Monetary Default"), Tenant gives Landlord written notice that Tenant disputes the existence of such Non-Monetary Default, then Landlord may not exercise its right to terminate this Lease on account of such Non-Monetary Default unless (i) the parties have participated in good faith in mediation of the dispute as provided below, and (ii) following the conclusion or termination of such mediation, Tenant has failed to cure the alleged Non-Monetary Default within the time required under Section 22.2 with the 30-day period described thereunder running from the date of the conclusion or termination of such mediation. In the event of a dispute regarding the existence of a Non-Monetary Default, the parties shall first attempt to resolve the dispute informally. In the event the dispute is not resolved informally, prior to and as a precondition to the initiation of any legal action or proceeding, the parties shall refer the dispute to mediation before a retired State or Federal judge mutually selected by the parties. The dispute shall be mediated through informal, nonbinding joint conferences or separate caucuses with an impartial third party mediator who will seek to guide the parties to a consensual resolution of the dispute. The mediation proceeding shall be conducted within thirty (30) days (or any mutually agreed longer period) after referral by Landlord or Tenant, and shall continue until any party involved concludes, in good faith, that there is no reasonable possibility of resolving the dispute without resort to a legal action or proceeding. All costs of the mediation shall be shared equally by the parties involved. Each party shall bear its own attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in connection with the mediation. In the event the parties are unable to resolve the dispute through mediation, in addition to any other rights or remedies, any party may institute a legal action. 23.5 Access and Use upon Tenant Default. In the event that this Lease is terminated due to a Tenant default, the rightful owners (including Landlord) and owners of Sublease Vacation Ownerships will have access to, and the use and enjoyment of, all of the Common Facilities and the Road and Parking Facilities (as such terms are defined in that certain Final Time-Share Public Report Multi-Site Time-Share Plan issued on May 13, 2006 by the Bureau of Real Estate of the State of California under File Number 122924HF-Al6, as amended). DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -21- 24. Events of Landlord's Default; Tenant's Remedies. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by it under this Lease until it has failed to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord specifying the nature of Landlord's default; 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 shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion. If Landlord is in default under this Lease, Tenant shall have all rights and remedies available at law or in equity. 25. Exculpation of Landlord. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that any judgment against Landlord resulting from any default or other claim under this Lease shall be satisfied only out of the net rents, issues, profits and other income actually received from or in connection with Landlord's interest in the Premises, and Tenant shall, except as otherwise expressly permitted pursuant to this Section 25, have no claim against Landlord or any of its personal assets, for satisfaction of any judgment with respect to this Lease. 26. Hazardous Substances. 26.1 Tenant shall comply fully with all laws pertaining to the use, generation, storage, transportation, treatment, disposal or other handling of Hazardous Substances at the Premises, excepting those Hazardous Substances that are (i) present at the Premises prior to the Commencement Date or (ii) caused by Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors. Tenant shall not use, generate, store, transport, treat, dispose or otherwise handle any Hazardous Substances upon the Premises, except in accordance with all Laws. The term "Hazardous Substances" shall mean and include, but is not limited to, all hazardous substances, materials and wastes listed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the State of California, the County of San Diego or the City of Carlsbad, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA), and any other statute, ordinance or rule promulgated by a government entity or agency thereof. 26.2 Tenant agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Landlord Parties from and against any and all damages, penalties, fines, losses, liabilities, causes of action, suits, claims, demands, costs, and expenses (including all out-of-pocket litigation costs and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) (collectively, "Claims") of any nature, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in connection with: (i) The existence, use, generation, migration, storage, release, threatened release, or disposal of Hazardous Materials on, from or under the Premises, except to the extent caused by Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors, or to the extent involving Hazardous Materials which were present on, in or under the Premises prior to the Commencement Date; provided, however, if the Hazardous Materials migrated to the Premises from other property not owned or controlled by Tenant or an Affiliate of Tenant, then the foregoing indemnity shall be limited to Claims resulting from Tenant's failure to comply with the DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -22- terms of any order of any federal, state or municipal authority having regulatory authority over the presence of such Hazardous Substances on, in or under the Premises; and (ii) Any failure by Tenant to comply with the terms of any order of any federal, state, or municipal authority having regulatory authority over environmental matters which is applicable under this Lease to the Premises excepting those that pertain to Hazardous Substances that were (i) present at the Premises prior to the Commencement Date or (ii) caused by Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors. Tenant's obligations under this Section 26 shall survive the termination of this Lease. If any claim is made or brought against Landlord which is subject to the indemnifications set forth in this Section 26, Tenant shall defend the same, if necessary in Landlord's name, by attorneys reasonably approved by Landlord. 27. Brokers. Landlord and Tenant each represents, warrant, and covenant that it has not dealt with any real estate broker or finder with respect to this Lease, and each party shall hold the other party harmless from all damages, claims, liabilities or expenses, including reasonable and actual attorneys' fees (through all levels of proceedings), resulting from any claims that may be asserted against the other party by any real estate broker or finder with whom the indemnifying party either has or is purported to have dealt. 28. Options to Extend Term. Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term of this Lease for two (2) separate successive periods of ten (10) years each, upon all the terms, covenants and conditions contained in Exhibit C attached hereto. 29. Annexation to Time Share Plan. Upon approval and instruction by the Bureau of Real Estate of the State of California and prior to the sale of the first Sublease Vacation Ownership Tenant shall cause to be recorded a Declaration of Annexation, substantially in the form of the attached Exhibit "F" (the "Declaration of Annexation"), as may be amended. The Declaration of Annexation and the MarBrisa CCRs are subject and subordinate to this Lease; provided, however, in the event this Lease is terminated for any reason prior to the Expiration Date, Landlord may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to continue to subject the Premises to the Declaration of Annexation and the MarBrisa CCRs until the date this Lease would have otherwise expired, and Tenant agrees to execute any documentation reasonably requested by Landlord to facilitate such continuation. 30. Storm Water Runoff Compliance. Landlord agrees to cause the City of Carlsbad, through the grading, drainage and storm water plan review and approval process for the Time Share Addition, and as allowable by Law, to cooperate with Tenant (should it be beneficial for the development of the Premises) in utilizing the adjacent land owned by the City of Carlsbad for the purpose of complying with and accommodating storm water runoff requirements for the Premises. If the adjacent land owned by the City of Carlsbad is utilized for the purpose of complying with and accommodating storm water runoff requirements for the Premises, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold the Landlord Parties harmless from all claims, costs, liability, damage or expense, including attorneys' fees, arising from any damage or injury to persons or property as a result of such utilization, and from any penalties imposed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board or other governmental entity regulating draining and/or water run off DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -23- occurring on the Premises during or after installation of the storm water improvements on Landlord's adjacent property by Tenant. 31. Intentionally Omitted. 32. Intentionally Omitted. 33. Miscellaneous. 33.1 Governing Law, Venue and Jurisdiction. This Lease is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, irrespective of California's choice-of-law principles. All actions and proceedings arising in connection with this Lease must be tried and litigated exclusively in the State or Federal courts located in the County of San Diego, State of California, which courts have personal jurisdiction and venue over each of the parties to this Lease for the purpose of adjudicating all matters arising out of or related to this Lease. 33.2 Further Assurances and Estoppels. Each party to this Lease shall execute and deliver all instruments and documents and take all actions as may be reasonably required or appropriate to carry out the purposes of this Lease (but the foregoing does not imply an obligation to modify any of the provisions of this Lease). Landlord shall ensure that Tenant's quiet enjoyment of the Premises throughout the Term is not interrupted by Landlord or anyone lawfully or equitably claiming by, through or under Landlord, subject to Tenant fulfilling its obligations hereunder and Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant shall each promptly forward to the other any notice or other communication affecting the Premises received by it from any owner of property adjoining, adjacent or nearby to the Premises or from any municipal or governmental authority, in connection with any hearing or other administrative procedure relating to the use or occupancy of the Premises or any neighboring property. Within ten (1 0) business days after notice from the other party to this Lease, Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to other party's designee, in recordable form, a certificate stating, to the current, actual knowledge of such party (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or in full force and effect as modified, and stating all modifications, (ii) the then current Rent, (iii) the dates to which Rent has been paid in advance, (iv) the amount of any security deposit, prepaid Rent or other payment constituting Rent which has been paid, (v) whether or not Tenant or Landlord is in default under this Lease (and the nature of any such default) and if Tenant is the certifying party) whether there currently exist any defenses or rights of offset under the Lease, and (vi) such other matters as the requesting party reasonably requests. Such certificate shall also state that the statements contained therein shall only estop the certifying party from asserting claims or defenses contrary to the statements therein and are not affirmative representations, warranties, covenants or waivers, and the certifying party will not be liable on account of any information therein contained notwithstanding the failure of the certifying party, for any reason, to disclose and/or correct relevant information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the certifying party fails to execute and deliver to the other party the certificate referred to in this Section with in the ten (1 0) business day period set forth above, Lender shall deliver to Landlord a second written notice containing the following sentence, in bold, capital letters: "SECOND NOTICE: THIS IS A REQUEST FOR AN ESTOPPEL", and the DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -24- certifying party shall have an additional five (5) business days to deliver the certificate to the other party. 33.3 Prior Understandings. This Lease: (a) contains the entire and final agreement of the parties to this Lease with respect to the subject matter of this Lease, and (b) supersedes all negotiations, stipulations, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, if any, with respect to such subject matter, which precede or accompany the execution ofthis Lease. 33.4 Waivers and Consents. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord or Tenant in the event of any default by the other shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent Rent does not constitute a waiver of any default other than the particular rent payment accepted. No act or conduct of Landlord, including the acceptance of the keys to the Premises, constitutes an acceptance by Landlord of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant before the Expiration Date. Only a written notice from Landlord to Tenant stating Landlord's election to terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises constitutes acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and accomplishes a termination of this Lease. Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval may not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any other or subsequent act by Tenant. 33.5 Notices. Any notice permitted or required to be given pursuant to this Lease shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand, be sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or be sent by nationally recognized commercial courier for next business day delivery, to the addresses set forth in Article 1, or to such other addresses as are specified by written notice given in accordance herewith. All notices, demands or requests delivered by hand shall be deemed given upon the date so delivered; those given by mailing as hereinabove provided shall be deemed given on the earlier of actual delivery or three (3) business days after the date of deposit in the United States Mail; those given by commercial courier as hereinabove provided shall be deemed given on the date of actual delivery as evidenced by the commercial courier's record of delivery .. 33.6 Interpretation. Whenever the context so requires in this Lease, all words used in the singular may include the plural (and vice versa) and the word "person" includes a natural person, a corporation, a firm, a partnership, a joint venture, a trust, an estate or any other entity. The terms "includes" and "including" do not imply any limitation. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no remedy or election under this Lease is exclusive, but rather, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each such remedy and election is cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity. The paragraph headings in this Lease: (i) are included only for convenience, (ii) do not in any manner modify or limit any of the provisions of this Lease, and (iii) may not be used in the interpretation of this Lease. 33.7 Partial Invalidity. Each provision of this Lease is valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any provision of this Lease (or the application of such provision to any person or circumstance) is or becomes invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, and the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those DOCS 121163-00000112705332.10 -25- as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, are not affected by such invalidity or unenforceability. 33.8 Successors-in-Interest and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Article 15, this Lease is binding on and inures to the benefit of the successors-in-interest and assigns of each party to this Lease. 33.9 Drafting Ambiguities. Each party to this Lease and its legal counsel have negotiated, reviewed, and revised this Lease. The rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party or in favor of the party receiving a particular benefit under an agreement may not be employed in the interpretation of this Lease or any amendment to this Lease. 33.10 Usury. In the event Landlord receives any sums under this Lease which constitute interest in an amount in excess of that permitted by any applicable Law, then, all such sums constituting interest in excess of that permitted to be paid under applicable Law shall, at Landlord's option, either be credited to the payment of Rent owing hereunder or returned to the Tenant. 33.11 No Merger. There shall be no merger of this Lease or any interest in this Lease or of the Leasehold Estate created by this Lease with the Reversionary Estate in the Premises by reason of the fact that this Lease or such interest therein, or such Leasehold Estate may be directly or indirectly held by or for the account of any person who holds title to the Reversionary Estate in the Premises or any interest in such Reversionary Estate, nor shall there be any such merger by reason of the fact that all or any part of the Leasehold Estate created by this Lease may be conveyed or mortgaged in a leasehold mortgage or deed of trust to a mortgagee or beneficiary who holds title to the Reversionary Estate or any interest of Landlord under the Lease. 33.12 As-Is. Except as set forth in this Lease, Landlord hereby disclaims any warranty, guaranty or representation of the nature and condition of the Premises, including (but not by way of limitation) the soil and geology and suitability thereof for any and all activities and uses which Tenant may elect to conduct thereon at any time during the Term, the manner of construction and the conditions and state of repair or lack of repair of all Improvements located thereon, and the nature and extent of the rights of others with respect to the Premises, whether by way of easement, right of way, lease, possession, lien, encumbrance, license, reservation, condition or otherwise. (i) Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any of the Landlord Parties has made any representation or warranty as to the suitability of the Premises for the erection of the Tenant's Work or for the conduct of Tenant's business except to the extent expressly set forth in this Lease, and that Tenant accepts them in their present condition, "as is, "where is," and without any warranty whatsoever, except to the extent expressly set forth in this Lease, and with no recourse whatsoever to Landlord Parties, except for fraud or breach of an express representation or warranty. DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -26- (ii) Tenant acknowledges that Tenant has made or will make its own independent investigation as to the usability and suitability of the Premises for the Permitted Use; the types of governmental permits that may be required; the nature and extent of applicable laws, ordinances, regulations, plans, covenants, conditions, and restrictions, that Tenant may be required to comply with in order to complete and operate the Premises for the Permitted Use; the soils, geologic, and seismic conditions existing on the Premises; the presence of any contaminants, hazardous wastes, or toxic substances in, upon, or about the soil or groundwater in, upon, under, or about the Premises and the potential for migration ofthe same from adjacent lands; the availability and cost of all services that are necessary or desirable to serve the Premises, including, but not limited to, electricity, natural gas, water, sewer, streets, telephone, television cable, fire protection, and police protection; and the usability of the same by Tenant as the Tenant and occupant of the Premises; all other physical facts, legal issues, and potential governmental regulations or actions including, but not limited to, regulatory building moratoriums by one or more of the governmental agencies having jurisdiction of the Premises; all other matters deemed by Tenant to be material to Tenant or of concern to Tenant with respect to Tenant entering into this Lease and undertaking the erection and construction of the Tenant's Work; and Tenant agrees that except to the extent expressly set forth in this Lease, neither Landlord nor any of the Landlord Parties has made any warranties or representations whatsoever with respect to any of the foregoing. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant hereby releases the Landlord Parties from all future claims, actions, or demands that Tenant may have or may hereinafter have, known and unknown, in any way relating to the quality, fitness, or condition of the Premises as existing as of the Commencement Date and Tenant specifically waives all rights under California Civil Code section 1542 with respect to such release, which provides as follows: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor." 33.13 Attorney's Fees. The prevailing party in any litigation, reference, arbitration, bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding ("Proceeding") relating to the enforcement or interpretation of this Lease may recover from the unsuccessful party all costs, expenses, and actual attorney's fees (including expert witness and other consultants' fees and costs) relating to or arising out of (i) the Proceeding, and (ii) any post-judgment or post-award proceeding including, without limitation, one to enforce or collect any judgment or award resulting from the Proceeding. All such judgments and awards shall contain a specific provision for the recovery of all such subsequently incurred costs, expenses, and actual attorney's fees. 33.14 Approval. Unless provision is made for a different standard or specific time period, approval or consent required pursuant to this Lease shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned and response to a request for an approval or consent shall be given by the party to whom directed within thirty (30) days of receipt. Each disapproval shall be in writing and the reasons shall be clearly stated if the consent or approval may not be unreasonably withheld. If a response is not given within the required time period, the requested party shall be deemed to have withheld its approval or consent. DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 -27- 33.15 Limitation on Landlord's Liability. 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 Reversionary Estate and in the event of any transfer or transfers of the title to such Reversionary Estate, Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances the then grantor) shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance from all obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease to be performed thereafter, provided that any prepaid Rent, security deposit or trust funds in the hands of such Landlord or the then grantor at the time of such transfer, shall be transferred to the grantee or transferee, who shall expressly assume, subject to the limitations ofthis Section 33.15, all of the terms, covenants and conditions in this Lease contained on the part of Landlord thereafter to be performed, it being intended by this Section 33.15 that the covenants and obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 33.15, be binding on Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and in respect of their respective successive periods of ownership. 33.16 Landlord's Right of Entry. Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times and upon not less than 48 hours prior written notice to Tenant (except in the case of an emergency) and subject to the rights of Tenant's subtenants and guests, to enter the Premises to (i) inspect them; (ii) post notices of non-responsibility, and (iii) perform any covenants of Tenant which Tenant fails to perform (provided Landlord has the right to do so under this Lease and subject to any notice and/or grace periods contained in this Lease). Landlord may make any such entries without the abatement of Rent and may take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes; provided, however, each such entry shall be made in reasonable manner which, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, does not interfere with the business operations or security systems of Tenant or any of its subtenants or licensees. Further, Tenant or any of its subtenants shall have the right to accompany Landlord during any such entry (except in the case of an emergency). Nothing herein contained shall imply any duty on the part of Landlord to do any such work which under any provision of this Lease Tenant is required to do, nor shall it constitute a waiver of Tenant's default in failing to do the same. 33.17 Authority; Signatories. Landlord and Tenant hereby represent and warrant to each other that it has the full power, right and authority to enter into and execute this Lease, and that those persons whose signatures are hereinafter evidenced on this Lease on behalf of it are duly authorized signatories of it, fully empowered to commit and bind it to those certain terms, covenants and conditions set forth herein for the Term of this Lease. 33.18 Counterparts and Signature Pages.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant shall fail to give the Interest Notice within the aforesaid time limit, Tenant's right to exercise its option shall nevertheless continue until thirty (30) days after Landlord shall have given Tenant notice of Landlord's election to terminate such option (which notice may be given by Landlord at any time after the expiration of the aforesaid twelve-month period) and Tenant may give the Interest Notice at any time until the expiration of said thirty-day period after Landlord's notice. If Tenant thereafter timely gives the Interest Notice and exercises any such option pursuant to the terms set forth in paragraph (ii) below, the extended portion of the Term to which such option relates shall commence or shall be deemed to have commenced at the time it would have commenced if such notice had been given at the time prescribed in the first sentence of this paragraph (i). (ii) Within thirty (30) days of Landlord's receipt of the Interest Notice, Landlord shall deliver notice ("Option Rent Notice") to Tenant setting forth the proposed Annual Rent for the first year of the option term (the "Option Rent"). If Tenant desires to exercise such Option, Tenant shall provide Landlord written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Option Rent Notice ("Tenant's Acceptance") provided, however, upon, and concurrent with such exercise, Tenant may, at its option, object to the Option Rent contained in the Option Rent Notice. Tenant's failure to deliver the Tenant's Acceptance on or before the dates specified above shall be deemed to constitute Tenant's election not to exercise the Option. If Tenant timely provides Tenant's Acceptance, the Term shall be extended for the Option Term upon all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, except that, subject to the terms of paragraph (v) below, the Option Rent for the then current option term shall be as indicated in the Option Rent Notice unless Tenant, concurrently with Tenant's Acceptance, objects to the Option Rent contained in the Option Rent Notice, in which case the parties shall follow the procedure set forth in paragraphs (iii) and (iv) below to determine the Option Rent. (iii) Annual Rent During Option Terms. If the Term is extended pursuant to the above terms of this Exhibit C but Tenant objected to the Option Rent proposed by Landlord in the Option Rent Notice, than the Option Rent shall be equal to the "Market Rent" (defined below), but in no event shall be less than the Annual Rent applicable to the immediately preceding Lease Year. "Market Rent" as of any date in question, shall mean an amount equal to the product of the Cap Rate and the Fair Market Land Value as of the date in question. The "Cap Rate" shall mean the hotel land cap rate that is most appropriate to apply to the Premises by reference and comparison to the cap rates applied or referred to in the most recent comparable sales of land for hotel development or sales of leased fee interests in land under existing hotels DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXlllBIT"C" -1- including those disclosed or described in a nationally-published survey and/or the data bases of national hospitality consulting and appraisal firms. "Fair Market Land Value" shall mean the most probable sale price in terms of money which the Premises (with all easements and rights appurtenant thereto) should bring in a competitive and open market under the conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently and knowledgeably. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of the applicable date of determination of Fair Market Land Value and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: (i) the buyer and seller are arms-length parties; (ii) both parties are well informed or well advised and each acting in what they consider their own best interests; (iii) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; (iv) payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; (v) the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale; (vi) the Premises is vacant, clean and uncontaminated and is free of all encumbrances except the use and development restriction terms of this Lease applicable to the Premises at that time; and (vii) assuming the then actual uses of the improvements on the Land. (iv) Determination of Market Rent. If in Tenant's Acceptance Tenant objects to the Option Rent, Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Market Rent using their diligent good-faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within thirty (30) days following Tenant's Acceptance ("Outside Agreement Date"), then each party shall make a separate determination of the Market Rent which shall be submitted to each other and to arbitration in accordance with the following items (1) through (10): (1) Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator (each, a "Selected Arbitrator") who shall by profession be a real estate appraiser who is a Member of the Appraisal Institute (MAl) and who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the appraisal of first-class hotels time share units in the Southern California. Each such arbitrator shall be appointed within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date. Landlord and Tenant may have developed its Market Rent (being the product of the Cap Rate and Fair Market Land Value) and otherwise consult with their Selected Arbitrators prior to appointment and its Selected Arbitrator may be favorable to their respective positions. (2) The two Selected Arbitrators so appointed shall be specifically required pursuant to its engagement letter with Landlord or Tenant to mutually appoint, within thirty (30) days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed Selected Arbitrator, a third arbitrator ("Third Arbitrator ") who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the two Selected Arbitrators; provided, however, neither Landlord nor Tenant or either party's Selected Arbitrator may, directly or indirectly, consult with the Third Arbitrator regarding the determination of the Fair Market Land Value prior to his or her appointment. The Third Arbitrator shall be an independent party and shall not have been previously engaged by either Landlord or Tenant or their principals during the five (5) year period preceding the Third Arbitrator's appointment and the Third Arbitrator shall so certify in its engagement letter or by other means satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant. The Third Arbitrator shall be retained via an engagement letter jointly prepared by Landlord and Tenant. DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXHIBIT "C" -2- (3) The determination of the Third Arbitrator shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord's or Tenant's determination of Market Rent submitted most recently but prior to ten (10) days before the Outside Agreement Date is the closest to the actual Market Rent as of the Outside Agreement Date, taking into account the assumptions and requirements set forth in the definition of "Fair Market Land Value". (4) Each party shall submit to the other party's Selected Arbitrator and to the Third Arbitrator, such party's determination of Market Rent last submitted to the other party at least ten (1 0) days prior to the Outside Agreement Date. Each submittal may include such supporting information that was also made available to the other party at least ten (10) days prior to the Outside Agreement Date. Such submittal shall be made concurrently within five (5) business days after learning of such appointment. (5) The Third Arbitrator shall within sixty (60) days of his or her appointment reach a decision as to whether the Landlord's or Tenant's determination of Market Rent as submitted pursuant to the above terms is closest to Market Rent as of the Outside Agreement Date as determined by the Third Arbitrator in accordance with Exhibit C. The Third Arbitrator shall simultaneously publish a ruling ("Appraisal Award") indicating whether Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Market Rent as of the Outside Agreement Date is closest to the Market Rent. The determination of the Third Arbitrator may be based on its own appraisal or investigation and/or its review and evaluation of Landlord's and Tenant's submittal and discussion of the same with the Selected Arbitrators. Following notification of the Appraisal Award, Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Market Rent determination, whichever is selected by the Third Arbitrator as being closest to the Market Rent determined as of the Outside Agreement Date by the Third Arbitrator shall become the then applicable Market Rent for the subject Option Term. ( 6) The Appraisal A ward shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. (7) The parties hereto agree that until the Appraisal Award is issued, Tenant shall continue to pay Annual Rent at the same rate as applicable just before the option term. At the time such dispute is resolved, the parties shall make appropriate adjustments to any amounts paid by Tenant for the period from the commencement of the applicable option term that were based upon the Annual Rent applicable just before the option term, and to the extent necessary, Tenant shall within thirty (30) days of the resolution of such dispute pay any and all amounts then due to Landlord, together with interest, at the Prime Rate plus three percent (3%) per annum, resulting from an underpayment by Tenant. (8) If either Landlord or Tenant fail to appoint a Selected Arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date, either party may petition the presiding judge of the Superior Court of San Diego County to appoint such Selected Arbitrator subject to the criteria in this Exhibit C, or if he or she refuses to act, either party may petition any judge having jurisdiction over the parties to appoint such Selected Arbitrator. (9) If the two Selected Arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint the Third Arbitrator or if either party frustrates the engagement of the Third Arbitrator, DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXHIBIT "C" -3- then either party may petition the presiding judge of the Superior Court of San Diego County to appoint the Third Arbitrator, subject to criteria in this Exhibit C, or if he or she refuses to act, either party may petition any judge having jurisdiction over the parties to appoint such Third Arbitrator. (10) Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the appraiser appointed by or on behalf of it, and each shall pay one-half of the fees and expenses of the Third Arbitrator, if any. (v) During each option term, commencing with the first day of the second Lease Year of the option term and the first day of each Lease Year thereafter during the option term, the Annual Rent shall be increased by two and one-half percent (2.5%) over the Annual Rent applicable during the prior Lease Year. DOCS 121163-00000112705332.10 EXHIBIT"C" -4- EXHIBIT "D" LENDER'S RIGHTS UNDER THE LEASE Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that a Lender shall have, in addition to all rights and remedies provided for in the Lease, all of the following rights: 1. Abandonment of Property. Notwithstanding any provision in the Lease to the contrary, Landlord acknowledges and agrees that if Tenant defaults on its obligations to a Lender and the Lender undertakes to enforce its security interest in the Lease, the Improvements, or any collateral constituting personal property and/or trade fixtures, and thereafter prosecutes such enforcement proceeding to completion with due diligence and continuity, then such property shall not be deemed abandoned. 2. Lender's Entry onto Property. For the purpose of curing any default by Tenant under the Lease or under any instruments executed in favor of a Lender (the "Loan Documents"), Landlord and Tenant authorize Lender to enter upon the Premises and to exercise any of the rights and powers granted to Lender under the Lease or the Loan Documents, provided the latter powers would, if exercised by Tenant, not breach the Lease, and provided further that Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and the other Landlord Parties harmless from all claims, costs, liability, damage or expense, including attorneys' fees, arising from Lender's entry upon the Premises. 3. Lender's Rights to Notice. Landlord agrees that any notice of default, termination of the Lease or termination of Tenant's right to possession delivered to Tenant shall not be valid or of any force or effect as to Lender only unless a duplicate copy thereof shall be delivered to the Lender concurrently therewith by any method provided for in Section 33.5 of the Lease, but only if Tenant or the Lender previously gave written notice to Landlord of the name and address of the Lender; provided, however, in no event shall the failure to deliver such notice to Lender be applied to allow a defaulting Tenant to remain in possession of the Premises so long as the enforcement against the Tenant does not prejudice Lender's rights hereunder. Landlord further agrees that a duplicate copy of any notice given to Tenant pursuant to Exhibit C of this Lease shall be delivered to the Lender concurrently therewith by any method provided for in Section 33.5 of the Lease, but only if Tenant or the Lender previously gave written notice to Landlord of the name and address ofthe Lender. 4. Removal of Personal Property. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease, in the event of Tenant's default under the Lease, Lender shall not be required to remove from the Premises any Personalty unless and until Lender has acquired possession of the Premises or title to the Leasehold Estate. 5. Cure of Defaults by Lender. (a) In the event of any default by Tenant under the provisions of this Lease, any Lender will have the same periods as are given Tenant for remedying such default or causing DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXHIBIT "D" -1- it to be remedied, plus, in each case, an additional period of thirty (30) days after the expiration of the initial period or after Landlord has served a notice or a copy of a notice of such default upon the Lender, whichever is later. (b) In the event that Tenant shall default under any of the provisions of this Lease, any Lender, without prejudice to its rights against Tenant, shall have the right to cure such default within the applicable grace periods provided for in the preceding Section 5(a), above, whether the same consists of the failure to pay Rent or the failure to perform any other matter or thing which Tenant is hereby required to do or perform, and Landlord shall accept such performance on the part of such Lender as though the same had been done or performed by Tenant. For such purpose, Landlord and Tenant hereby authorize such Lender to enter upon the Premises and to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Lease and subject to the provisions of this Lease, provided that Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and the other Landlord Parties harmless from all claims, costs, liability, damage or expense, including attorneys' fees, arising from Lender's entry upon the Premises. (c) In the event of any nonmonetary default by Tenant that is not reasonably susceptible of being cured by Lender prior to the expiration of the applicable grace period specified in Section 5(a) above or which can only be cured by Lender after having obtained possession of the Premises, a Lender shall give Landlord written notice that it intends to undertake the curing of such default, or to cause the same to be cured, or to exercise its rights to acquire the Leasehold Estate by foreclosure or otherwise, and shall immediately commence and then proceed with all due diligence to do so, whether by performance on behalf of Tenant of its obligations under this Lease, or by entry on the Premises and/or the Improvements by foreclosure or otherwise, and provided that Lender or Tenant shall have cured any prior monetary default and fulfills all of Tenant's monetary obligations under the Lease as they become due, then Landlord will not terminate or take any action to effect a termination of this Lease or re-renter, take possession of or relet the Premises or the Improvements or similarly enforce performance of this Lease in a mode provided by law so long as such Lender is with all due diligence and in good faith engaged in the curing of such default, or effecting such foreclosure and all of Tenant's monetary obligations under the Lease are paid when due; provided, however, that the Lender shall not be required to continue such possession or continue such foreclosure proceedings if such default shall be cured. 6. Termination of Lease. In the event of a termination of this Lease as to Tenant by reason of the bankruptcy of Tenant and rejection of this Lease by the trustee in bankruptcy or by Tenant as debtor in possession, or by operation of law or for any other reason, Landlord agrees that this Lease shall not terminate as to Lender and that this Lease shall, without any further act or action, automatically continue upon the same terms in favor of Lender as the lessee under this Lease provided that (i) Lender delivers to Landlord within ten (1 0) days of such event of termination written notice ("Notice of Assumption") that it elects to assume this Lease, and (ii) Lender immediately then cures or engages in good faith to cure any then existing default of Tenant under this Lease which is reasonably susceptible of cure by Lender; and Lender may take all appropriate actions necessary to remove Tenant from the Premises and such actions may be undertaken in its own name or, if Lender has obtained Landlord's consent and Lender indemnifies Landlord with respect to such actions, the name of Landlord. If the Lender fails to deliver the Notice of Assumption within such ten (10) day period, the Lender shall be deemed to DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXHIBIT"D" -2- have waived the right to assume the Lease pursuant to this Section 6. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties agree to execute such additional documents as may be reasonably required from time to time to confirm or carry out the intent of this Section, including entering into a new ground lease if Lender so elects upon the terms described below. 7. New Ground Lease. In the event that Tenant's interest under this Lease shall be terminated by a sale, assignment or transfer pursuant to the exercise of any remedy of a Lender, or pursuant to judicial proceedings, or as a result of the rejection of this Lease by reason of bankruptcy of Tenant or otherwise, and if (i) Lender delivers to Landlord within ten (1 0) days of the date of such termination written notice that it elects to enter into a new lease of the Premises, and (ii) either, (A) no Rent or other charges shall then be due and payable by Tenant under this Lease, or (B) the Lender shall have arranged to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord for the prompt payment of all Rent and other charges (less a credit for any income received by Landlord during such period) due and payable by Tenant under this Lease as of the date of such termination, together with the Rent and other charges that but for such termination would have become so due and payable from the date of such termination through the date of execution of a new lease, and upon payment of all Rent, other charges and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incident thereto, Landlord will execute and deliver to such Lender or its nominee a new lease of the Premises. If the Lender fails to deliver such notice within such ten (1 0) day period, the Landlord's obligation to execute a new lease pursuant to this Section 7 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. Such new lease shall be for a term equal to the remainder of the Term of this Lease before giving effect to such termination and shall contain the same covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and limitations as this Lease, and shall be subject only to the encumbrances and other matters in effect as of the recordation of the memorandum of this Lease and matters done or suffered by Tenant or Lender. Upon the execution and delivery of such new lease, the new tenant may take all appropriate actions as shall be necessary to remove Tenant from the Premises and the Improvements and such actions may be undertaken in its own name or, if Lender has obtained Landlord's consent and Lender indemnifies Landlord with respect to such actions, the name of Landlord, but Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for the payments of fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees, costs or expenses in connection with such removal; and such new tenant shall pay all such fees, including attorneys' fees costs and expenses or, on demand make reimbursements therefor to Landlord. 8. No Amendment or Surrender. The Lease shall not be cancelled or surrendered by agreement between Landlord and Tenant without Lender's sole discretion consent. Landlord agrees, for the benefit of Lender, that Landlord will not enter into any agreement with Tenant to amend or modify this Lease without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and any such action without Lender's written consent shall not be binding on Lender, its successors and assigns. Lender shall respond in writing to any request by Tenant or Landlord that Lender consent to an amendment or modification of the Lease within thirty (30) days of the Tenant's or Landlord's request for such consent (which response shall include, in the case of any denial or withholding of consent by the Lender, the reason(s) that the Lender has denied or withheld such consent). In the event the Landlord does not receive a written response from the Lender to any such request within such thirty (30) day period, then Tenant or Landlord may give Lender a second notice requesting such consent which notice shall prominently identify in bold and all capital type face that such notice is a second notice and that Lender's failure to respond within fifteen ( 15) days shall result in DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXHIBIT "D" -3- Lender's deemed approval of the proposed amendment or modification. In the event the Landlord does not receive a written response from the Lender to any such request within such fifteen (15) day period after such second notice, the Lender shall irrevocably be deemed to have consented to such amendment or modification of the Lease, and the Tenant and Landlord shall be free to enter into such amendment or modification of the Lease without further notice to Lender. 9. Lender's Performance. In all events, Landlord will accept performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease by or at the instance of Lender as if the same had been made by Tenant. 10. Participation in Proceedings. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Lease to the contrary, so long as the Loan Documents remain in effect, all policies of insurance called for in this Lease or otherwise in effect for the Leasehold Estate and the Improvements shall, in addition to any provisions required under this Lease, contain a standard mortgagee protection endorsement. Until such time as any indebtedness secured by the Loan Documents is repaid in full, Lender shall be entitled to participate in (and following a Loan Document Event of Default, vis-a-vis Tenant, control) the settlement or adjustment of any losses covered by such policies of insurance and no such settlement or adjustment shall be accepted or approved without the specific consent in writing of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In addition, until such time as any indebtedness secured by any Loan Document is repaid in full, Lender shall have the right to participate in (and following a Loan Document Event of Default, vis-a-vis Tenant, control) any settlement of or stipulation of judgment with respect to any condemnation proceeding affecting all or any portion of the Leasehold Estate and Improvements or any agreement to sell all or any portion of the Leasehold Estate and Improvements in lieu of condemnation, and no such settlement, stipulation or agreement shall be made or entered into without Lender's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lender agrees that (i) all proceeds from policies of insurance called for in the Lease or otherwise in effect for the Leasehold Estate and the Improvements and (ii) all Condemnation Proceeds shall be received, held, and/or applied as set forth in the Loan Documents For the purposes ofthis Section 10, "Loan Document Event of Default" shall mean an "Event of Default," as defined in the Loan Documents. 11. Foreclosure Event. Lender may exercise all of its rights, benefits, and remedies under the Loan Documents, including the commencement and consummation of a foreclosure or conveyance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure under the Leasehold Mortgage (a "Foreclosure Event"), in accordance with their terms without such actions constituting a default of any kind under this Lease. For the purposes of this Exhibit D, "Leasehold Mortgage" shall mean the deed of trust which is a part of the Loan Documents. From and after the consummation of a Foreclosure Event, the person that succeeds to the ownership of the Premises pursuant to the Foreclosure Event (the "Foreclosure Transferee") shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 17 of this Lease. 12. Liability of Lender and Foreclosure Transferee. Landlord agrees that neither Lender nor any Foreclosure Transferee has become personally liable under the terms and obligations of this Lease and neither Lender nor any Foreclosure Transferee shall become so DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXHIBIT "D" -4- liable unless and until (i) a Foreclosure Event is consummated (in which case, liability under the terms and obligations of this Lease shall apply only prospectively, to actions taken by the Foreclosure Transferee after the Foreclosure Event, and specifically excluding any liability for defaults by the Tenant prior to the Foreclosure Event); or (ii) Lender or its successors and assigns assumes said obligations in writing pursuant to Section 6 of this Exhibit D above or enters into a new lease with Landlord pursuant to Section 7 of this Exhibit D above, and, notwithstanding any such assumption or new lease, Lender or any Foreclosure Transferee shall be liable under this Lease or any such new lease only so long as Lender or such Foreclosure Transferee maintains ownership of the leasehold interest or estate. 13. No Restrictions On Certain Transfers. Landlord has consented to (or no consent by Landlord is required for) any of the following: (a) any transfer, conveyance, assignment, or encumbrance of the Lender's collateral interest in this Lease, or any other collateral securing the Loan otherwise permitted under the applicable Loan Documents; (b) the right to transfer the Lender's interest in this Lease pursuant to a Foreclosure Event; and (c) from and after the consummation of a Foreclosure Event, the right of the Lender to transfer, convey, and assign its interest in this Lease without restriction; provided, however, that (1) with respect to any transfer pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) above such transfer shall be subject to the following: (A) the assignor's interest in the Improvements shall be transferred to the assignee concurrently with the Leasehold Estate; (B) there shall be delivered to Landlord (A) a duplicate original of the instrument or instruments of transfer of this Lease and of the assignor's interest in the Improvements in recordable form, containing the name and address of the transferee and (B) an instrument of assumption by the transferee of all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease arising from and after the effective date of the transfer; (C) no such assignment and assumption shall operate or be deemed to operate as a release of the previous Tenant and/or the liabilities of the previous Tenant (and/or any guarantor or guarantors of the duties, obligations and liabilities of the previous Tenant) or a waiver of any of Landlord's rights or remedies against the previous Tenant for any defaults by the previous Tenant under this Lease prior to the Foreclosure Event; (2) any encumbrance of this Lease with a Leasehold Mortgage shall be subject to Section 1 7 of this Lease. 14. Recognition. In each case where a transfer, conveyance, or assignment permitted as provided above results in a change in the identity of the Tenant under this Lease, Landlord agrees, upon notice of such transfer, to recognize such new Tenant as the "Tenant" under this Lease, subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease. 15. Modifications. Landlord acknowledges that a proposed Lender may review the provisions of this Exhibit "D" and based upon such review may request changes to or DOCS 121163-000001/2705332.10 EXHIBIT "D" -5- clarifications of such provisions. Landlord agrees to make such changes or clarifications reasonably requested by Lender as a condition to its financing provided the Lender's requested changes are commercially reasonable and consistent with the customary leasehold financing practices of Approved Institutions and do not increase any of Landlord's obligations, or decrease or adversely affect Landlord's rights and remedies hereunder in any material respect. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with reviewing, negotiating or documenting any such amendment. 16. Estoppels. Within ten (10) business days after notice from Lender requesting the same, Landlord shall promptly forward to Lender, Landlord shall execute and deliver to Lender, in recordable form, a certificate stating that, to the current, actual knowledge of the City Manager of the City of Carlsbad (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or in full force and effect as modified, and stating all modifications, (ii) the then current Rent, (iii) the dates to which Rent has been paid in advance, (iv) the amount of any security deposit, prepaid Rent or other payment constituting Rent which has been paid, (v) whether or not Tenant is in default under this Lease (and the nature of any such default), and (vi) such other matters as Lender reasonably requests. Such certificate shall also state that the statements contained therein shall only estop Landlord from asserting claims or defenses contrary to the statements therein and are not affirmative representations, warranties, covenants or waivers, and Landlord will not be liable on account of any information therein contained notwithstanding the failure of Landlord, for any reason, to disclose and/or correct relevant information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord fails to execute and deliver to Lender the certificate referred to in this Section with in the ten (1 0) business day period set forth above, Lender shall deliver to Landlord a second written notice containing the following sentence in bold, capital letters: "SECOND NOTICE: THIS IS A REQUEST FOR AN ESTOPPEL", and Landlord shall have an additional five (5) business days to deliver the certificate to Lender. 17. Conflict. If there is any conflict between the provisions of the Lease and the provisions ofthis Exhibit "D", the provisions of this Exhibit "D" shall control.
