1. PREMISES




     1.1 Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant the Land and Building depicted on
Exhibit A-2 attached hereto (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Premises”).
Tenant acknowledges that, except as set forth in this Lease or in the Work Letter, if any, neither
Landlord nor any broker or agent has made any representations or warranties in connection with the
physical condition of the Premises or their fitness for Tenant’s use upon which Tenant has relied
directly or indirectly for any purpose. By taking possession of the Premises, Tenant accepts the
Premises “AS-IS” and waives all claims of defect in the Premises, except as set forth in the Work
Letter. Landlord hereby represents and warrants that as of the Commencement Date, the Premises are
zoned I-1.



     1.2 Common Area. Tenant may, subject to reasonable rules made by Landlord, use common
facilities in the Project (“Common Area”) designated by Landlord from time to time for the common
use of all tenants of the Project.



     1.3 Reserved Rights. Landlord reserves the right to enter the Premises at reasonable
times upon reasonable notice to Tenant (or without notice in case of an emergency) and/or to
undertake the following all without abatement of rent or liability to Tenant: inspect the Premises
and/or the performance by Tenant of the terms and conditions hereof; make such alterations,
repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises as required or permitted hereunder; change
boundary lines of the Common Area; install, use, maintain, repair, alter, relocate or replace any
pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, equipment and other facilities (including, without limitation,
cabling and conduit for telecommunications facilities of any kind) in the Common Area or the
Premises; grant easements on the Project, dedicate for public use portions thereof and record
covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project and create, and/or amend CC&Rs which
do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises or impose additional material
monetary obligations on Tenant; affix reasonable signs and displays; and, during the last nine (9)
months of the Term, place signs for the rental of, and show the Premises to prospective tenants.



     1.4 Re-measurement of Premises. At Landlord’s option, prior to the delivery of
possession of the Premises to Tenant, Landlord shall cause Landlord’s architect to measure and
certify in writing to Landlord the rentable square footage of the office portion of the Building
and the Building in its entirety (as measured from the exterior drip line of the Building), and if
such measurement differs from the rentable square footage of the Building and the office portion of
the Building specified below, then all amounts under this Lease calculated on the basis of such
rentable square footage (including, without limitation, the Base Rent) shall be adjusted
accordingly within thirty (30) days thereafter, retroactive to the Commencement Date. In
accordance with the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Monthly Base Rent
amounts due Landlord hereunder are based upon the Building containing 380,000 rentable square feet
of space (5,000 square feet of such area being office space). Therefore, if following the
Substantial Completion of the Improvements Landlord determines that the Building’s total square
footage and/or the office space located within the Building differs from the square footage stated
above, the Monthly Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be adjusted hereunder.



2. TERM




     2.1 Commencement Date. The Term of the Lease shall commence (“Commencement
Date”) on the date which is the later of (i) March 1, 2009, or (ii) the date of Substantial
Completion of the Improvements (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with the Work Letter attached
hereto as Addendum 2 (the “Work Letter”), and delivery of possession of such Substantially
Completed Premises by Landlord to Tenant, and the Lease shall continue in full force and effect for
the period of time specified as the Term or until this Lease is terminated as otherwise provided
herein. Tenant shall, upon demand after delivery of the Premises to Tenant, execute and deliver to
Landlord a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B
acknowledging the Commencement Date, the Monthly Base Rent Schedule for the initial term, the final
square footage of the Premises and Tenant’s acceptance of the Premises.



     2.2 Intentionally Omitted.



     2.3 Intentionally Omitted.



-1-









 





     2.4 Early Entry. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 2.4, Tenant
shall have the right to enter the Premises for the purpose of installing trade fixtures and
equipment within the Premises, and such early entry for such purposes shall not constitute
occupancy for operation of Tenant’s business and shall not trigger the Commencement Date. Landlord
will sequence construction of the Building to permit Tenant the right of entry on January 1, 2009.
Tenant agrees (i) any such early entry by Tenant shall be at Tenant’s sole risk, (ii) Tenant shall
not interfere with Landlord or Landlord’s contractors completing work within the Premises or cause
any labor difficulties; Tenant, together with its employees, agents and independent contractors
will be subject to and will work under the direction of Landlord’s contractor, (iii) Tenant shall
comply with and be bound by all provisions of this Lease during the period of any such early entry
except for the payment of Rent, (iv) prior to entry upon the Premises by Tenant, Tenant agrees to
pay for and provide to Landlord certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of liability
insurance carried by Tenant, which coverage must comply with the provisions of this Lease relating
to insurance, (v) Tenant and its agents and contractors agree to comply with all applicable laws,
regulations, permits and other approvals required to perform its work during the early entry on the
Premises, and (vi) Tenant agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and save Landlord and the Premises
harmless from and against any and all liens, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses,
demands, actions, causes of action and claims (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and
legal costs) arising out of the early entry, use, construction, or occupancy of the Premises by
Tenant or its agents, employees or contractors.



3. RENT




     3.1 Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at Landlord’s Address for Payment of Rent
designated in the Basic Lease Information, or at such other address as Landlord may from time to
time designate in writing to Tenant for the payment of Rent, the Base Rent, without notice, demand,
offset or deduction (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease), in advance, on the
first day of each calendar month commencing on the Commencement Date. Landlord shall have no
obligation to notify Tenant of any increase in Rent and Tenant’s obligation to pay all Rent (and
any increases) when due shall not be modified or altered by such lack of notice from Landlord. It
is intended that the Rent to be paid hereunder by Tenant will be received by Landlord without any
deduction or offset whatsoever by Tenant, foreseeable or unforeseeable. Except as expressly
provided to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure,
incur any obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with this Lease
or the ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises or the Project.
Upon the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the first month’s Base Rent. If the
Term commences (or ends) on a date other than the first (or last) day of a month, Base Rent shall
be prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month. All sums other than Base Rent which Tenant is
obligated to pay under this Lease shall be deemed to be additional rent due hereunder
(“Additional Rent”), whether or not such sums are designated Additional Rent and, together
with the Base Rent, shall be due and payable, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, to
Landlord commencing on the Possession Date. The term “Rent” means the Base Rent and all
Additional Rent payable hereunder.



     3.2 Late Charge and Interest. The late payment of any Rent will cause Landlord to
incur additional costs, including administration and collection costs and processing and accounting
expenses and increased debt service (“Delinquency Costs”). If Landlord has not received
any installment of Rent within five (5) days after such amount is due, (i) Tenant shall pay a late
charge of five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount, which is agreed to represent a reasonable
estimate of the Delinquency Costs incurred by Landlord, and (ii) all such delinquent amounts shall
bear interest from the date such amount was due until paid in full at a rate per annum
(“Applicable Interest Rate”) equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum interest rate permitted
by law or (b) three percent (3%) above the rate publicly announced by Bank of America, N.A. (or if
Bank of America, N.A. ceases to exist, the largest bank then headquartered in the State of Oregon)
(“Bank”) as its “Reference Rate”; provided, however, that, if Tenant has not been
delinquent in paying Rent beyond such five (5) day period during the twelve (12) month period
immediately preceding the late payment in question, then a late charge shall not be assessed and
the Applicable Interest Rate (accruing from the date the payment was due) shall not apply unless
Tenant fails to make the applicable payment of Rent within five (5) days after Landlord delivers
notice of such delinquency to Tenant, and provided further that such additional notice and cure
period shall apply no more than three (3) times during the Term. If the use of the announced
Reference Rate is discontinued by the Bank, then the term Reference Rate shall mean the announced
rate charged by the Bank which is, from time to time, substituted for the Reference Rate. Landlord
and Tenant recognize that the damage which Landlord shall suffer as a result of Tenant’s failure to
pay such amounts is difficult to ascertain and said late charge and interest are the best estimate
of the damage which Landlord shall suffer in the



-2-









 







event of late payment. If a late charge becomes payable for any three (3) installments of
Rent within any twelve (12) month period, then the Rent shall automatically become due and payable
quarterly in advance.



     3.3 Security Deposit. One (1) business day after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord the Security Deposit. The Security Deposit shall secure the full and faithful
performance of each provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. Landlord shall not be
required to pay interest on the Security Deposit or to keep the Security Deposit separate from
Landlord’s own funds. If Tenant fails to perform fully and timely all or any of Tenant’s covenants
and obligations hereunder, Landlord may, but without obligation, apply all or any portion of the
Security Deposit toward fulfillment of Tenant’s unperformed covenants and/or obligations. If
Landlord does so apply any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall immediately pay Landlord
sufficient cash to restore the Security Deposit to the amount of the then current Base Rent per
month. Upon any increase or decrease in Base Rent, Landlord may require the Security Deposit to be
increased or decreased by the amount of the adjustment in the per month Base Rent. No later than
thirty (30) days after Tenant vacates the Premises, upon the expiration or sooner termination of
this Lease, if Tenant is not then in default, Landlord shall return to Tenant any unapplied balance
of the Security Deposit.



4. UTILITIES. Tenant shall pay all charges for heat, water, gas, electricity, telephone
and any other utilities used on the Premises by Tenant directly to the applicable utility provider.
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for interruption in or curtailment of any utility service,
nor shall any such interruption or curtailment constitute constructive eviction or grounds for
rental abatement. Landlord hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to restore any
interrupted or curtailed services to the extent such interruption or curtailment is caused by
Landlord.



5. TAXES




     5.1 Real Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Share of Real Property
Taxes (as defined in Section 5.2) as a part of Operating Expenses for each full or partial calendar
year during the Lease Term in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 7.1 below.



     5.2 Definition of Real Property Taxes. “Real Property Taxes” shall be the sum
of the following: all real property taxes, assessments, supplementary taxes, escape taxes,
possessory-interest taxes, business or license taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such
taxes or fees, annual or periodic license or use fees, excises, transit and traffic charges,
housing fund assessments, open space charges, childcare fees, school, sewer and parking fees or any
other assessments, levies, fees, exactions or charges, general and special, ordinary and
extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen (including fees “in-lieu” of any such tax or
assessment) which are assessed, levied, charged, conferred or imposed by any public authority upon
the Premises or any other improvements located upon the Premises (or any real property comprising
any portion thereof) or its operations, together with all taxes, assessments or other fees imposed
by any public authority upon or measured by any Rent or other charges payable hereunder, including
any gross receipts tax or excise tax levied by any governmental authority with respect to receipt
of rental income, or upon, with respect to or by reason of the possession, leasing, operation,
management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any
portion thereof, or documentary transfer taxes upon this transaction or any document to which
Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest in the Premises, together with any tax
imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax previously included within the aforesaid
definition or any additional tax the nature of which was previously included within the aforesaid
definition, together with any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’, administrative and expert witness fees and costs) incurred by Landlord in
challenging any of the foregoing or seeking the reduction in or abatement, redemption or return of
any of the foregoing, but only to the extent of any such reduction, abatement, redemption or
return. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any assessments that may be paid over more than a one (1)
year period shall be included in “Real Property Taxes” as if such payments were made in the maximum
number of installments permitted by Applicable Laws and only the portion thereof attributable to a
given year shall be included in “Real Property Taxes” for that year. All references to Real

file any property tax assessment appeal. Nothing contained in this Lease shall require Tenant to
pay any franchise, corporate, estate or inheritance tax of Landlord, or any income, profits or
revenue tax or charge upon the net income of Landlord to the extent attributable to Landlord’s
general or net income (as opposed to rents or receipts attributable to operations at the Project).
Subject to the terms of this Section 5.2, Real Property Taxes for partial years, if any, falling
within the Term shall be prorated.




     5.3 Personal Property Taxes. Prior to delinquency, Tenant shall pay all taxes and
assessments levied upon trade fixtures, alterations, additions, improvements, inventories and other
personal property located and/or installed on the Premises by Tenant; and Tenant shall provide
Landlord copies of receipts for payment of all such taxes and assessments. To the extent any such

7. ESTIMATED EXPENSES




     7.1 Payment. “Estimated Expenses” for any particular year shall mean
Landlord’s estimate of Operating Expenses for a calendar year. Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share of
the Estimated Expenses with installments of Base Rent in monthly installments of one-twelfth
(1/12th) thereof on the first day of each calendar month during such year. If at any
time Landlord determines that Operating Expenses are projected to vary from the then Estimated
Expenses, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, revise such Estimated Expenses, and Tenant’s monthly
installments for the remainder of such year shall be adjusted so that by the end of such calendar
year Tenant has paid to Landlord Tenant’s Share of the revised Estimated Expenses for such year.



     7.2 Adjustment. “Operating Expenses Adjustment” (or “Adjustment”)
shall mean the difference between Tenant’s Share of Estimated Expenses and Tenant’s Share of
Operating Expenses for any calendar year. After the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall
deliver to Tenant a statement of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for such calendar year,
accompanied by a computation of the Adjustment. If Tenant’s payments are less than Tenant’s Share,
then Tenant shall pay the difference within twenty (20) days after receipt of such statement.
Tenant’s obligation to pay such amount shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
If Tenant’s payments exceed Tenant’s Share, then (provided that Tenant is not in default) Landlord
shall credit such excess amount to future installments of Tenant’s Share for the next calendar
year. If Tenant is in default, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, credit such amount to
Rent arrearages.

advertising injury coverage, and, if necessary, Tenant shall provide for restoration of the
aggregate limit by increasing the aggregate limits of existing policies, obtaining new policies or

assumed under this Lease as an “insured contract” for the performance of Tenant’s indemnity
obligations under this Lease;




          8.2.2. Automobile Liability Insurance. Business automobile liability insurance having
a combined single limit of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence and

     8.3 General



          8.3.1. Insurance Companies. Insurance required to be maintained by Tenant shall be
written by companies licensed to do business in the state in which the Premises are located and
having a “General Policyholders Rating” of at least “A — VIII” (or such higher
rating as may be required by a lender having a lien on the Premises) as set forth in the most
current issue of “Best’s Insurance Guide.”




          8.3.2. Certificates of Insurance. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord certificates of
insurance for all insurance required to be maintained by Tenant in the form of Exhibit C,
attached hereto (or in a form acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion), no later than seven
(7) days prior to the date of possession of the Premises. Tenant shall, at least ten (10) days
prior to expiration of the policy, furnish Landlord with certificates of renewal or “binders”
thereof. Each certificate shall expressly provide that such policies shall not be cancelable or
otherwise subject to modification except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to the parties
named as additional insureds in this Lease (except in the case of cancellation for nonpayment of
premium in which case cancellation shall not take effect until at least ten (10) days’ notice has

-6-









 







required in this Lease, Tenant shall be liable for all losses and costs suffered or incurred
by Landlord (including litigation costs and attorneys’ fees and expenses) resulting from said
failure.




          8.3.3. Additional Insureds. Landlord, Landlord’s lender, if any, and any property
management company of Landlord for the Premises shall be named as additional insureds on a form
approved by Landlord under all of the policies required by Section 8.2.1. The policies required

          8.3.4. Primary Coverage. All insurance to be maintained by Tenant shall, except for
workers’ compensation and employer’s liability insurance, be primary, without right of contribution
from insurance of Landlord. Any umbrella liability policy or excess liability policy (which shall
be in “following form”) shall provide that if the underlying aggregate is exhausted, the excess
coverage will drop down as primary insurance. The limits of insurance maintained by Tenant shall
not limit Tenant’s liability under this Lease.




          8.3.5. Waiver of Subrogation. Whenever (a) any loss, cost, damage or expense
resulting from fire, explosion or any other casualty is incurred by either Landlord or Tenant or by
anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord or Tenant in connection with the Premises, and (b)
such party is covered in whole or in part by property insurance (or would have been covered but for
such party’s failure to maintain the coverage required in this Section 8) with respect to such
loss, cost, damage or expense or as required under this Lease to be self-insured, then the party so
insured (or so required) hereby waives (on its own behalf and on behalf of its insurer) any claims
against and releases the party from any liability said other party may have on account of such
loss, cost, damage or expense. All property insurance which is carried by either party to insure
against damage or loss to property shall include provisions denying to each respective insurer
rights of subrogation and recovery against the other party. The waiver of subrogation contained in
this Section 8.3.5 shall not apply to any casualty which is not covered or required to be covered
by the insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Lease.




          8.3.6. Notification of Incidents. Tenant shall notify Landlord within forty-eight
(48) hours after the occurrence of any accidents or incidents in the Premises or the Project which
could give rise to a claim under any of the insurance policies required under this Section 8.




     8.4 Indemnity.



          8.4.1. Indemnity by Tenant. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel
reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s affiliated entities,
and each of their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees,
shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord
Parties”) from and against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties,
costs, liabilities, and expenses, including all costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and
liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon
(collectively, “Claims” or “Liabilities”), arising at any time during or after the
Term as a result (directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (i) any default in the
performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, or
(ii) Tenant’s use of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant’s business or any activity, work or things
done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or any Tenant Party (as defined in Section 12.1) in or about
the Premises or other portions of the Project, except to the extent caused by (a) Landlord’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Claims or Liabilities which are covered under any
insurance policy required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease (or would be covered under
such insurance policy if Tenant had maintained the required insurance policy or policies)
(collectively, the “Insurable Risks”), even though caused or alleged to be caused by the
negligence or fault (as opposed to gross negligence or willful misconduct) of Landlord or Landlord
Parties (this indemnity is intended to indemnify Landlord and Landlord Parties against the
consequences of their own negligence with respect to the Insurable Risks when Landlord or Landlord
Parties are jointly, comparatively, contributively, or concurrently negligent with Tenant), or (b)
Landlord’s negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are not
part of the Insurable Risks. The obligations of Tenant under this Section 8.4 shall survive the
termination of this Lease with respect to any claims or liability arising prior to such
termination.




          8.4.2. Indemnity by Landlord. Landlord shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel
reasonably acceptable to Tenant) and hold Tenant and Tenant’s affiliated entities, and each of
their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders,
lenders, agents, contractors, successors




-7-









 







and assigns harmless from and against any and all Claims or Liabilities arising out of or in
connection with, but only to the extent of (a) Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct
with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are part of Insurable Risks and (b) Landlord’s
negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are not a part of the
Insurable Risks; provided, however, the foregoing indemnity of Landlord shall in no way limit the
provisions of Section 19.5 hereof. Landlord’s agreement to indemnify, defend and hold Tenant
harmless as provided above is not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its
obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this
Lease to the extent that such policies cover (or, if such policies would have been carried as
required, would have covered) Claims or Liabilities incurred as a result of negligent acts or
omissions or the willful misconduct of Landlord or those of other Landlord Parties.




     8.5 Exemption of Landlord from Liability. Tenant, as a material part of the
consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property including, but not limited
to, Tenant’s fixtures, equipment, furniture and alterations or illness or injury to persons in,
upon or about the Premises or other portions of the Project arising from any cause, and Tenant
hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against Landlord, except to the extent caused by (a)
Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are
part of the Insurable Risks or (b) Landlord’s negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to
the Claims or Liabilities that are not part of the Insurable Risks. Tenant hereby agrees that
Landlord shall not be liable for injury to Tenant’s business or any loss of income therefrom.
Tenant further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for damage to the property of Tenant, or
injury to or illness or death of Tenant or any Tenant Party, or any other person in or about the
Premises of the Project, whether such damage, illness or injury is caused by fire, steam,
electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage or other defects of sprinklers,
wires, appliances, ventilation, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other
cause, and whether said damage, illness or injury results from conditions arising upon the
Premises, upon other portions of the Building or from other sources or places, and regardless of
whether the cause of such damage, illness or injury or the means of repairing the same is
inaccessible to Tenant, except to the extent such damage, illness or injury is caused by (a)
Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are
part of the Insurable Risks or (b) Landlord’s negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to
Claims or Liabilities that are not part of the Insurable Risks. Landlord shall not be liable for
any damages arising from any act or neglect of any contractor or other tenant, if any, of the
Building or the Project or Landlord’s failure to enforce the terms of any agreements with parties
other than Tenant.



9. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

fails, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, to maintain the Premises in accordance with the

receipt of written notice from Landlord stating the nature of the failure, Landlord shall have the
right to enter the Premises and perform such maintenance, repairs or refurbishing at Tenant’s sole
cost and expense (including a sum for overhead to Landlord equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs

     9.2 Landlord. Landlord shall, subject to the following limitations, repair damage to
structural portions of the roof, foundation and load-bearing portions of walls (excluding wall
coverings, painting, glass and doors) of the Building; provided, if such damage is caused by any
act or omission of Tenant, or any Tenant Party, then the cost thereof shall be at Tenant’s sole
expense except to the extent such damage is covered or required to be covered by the insurance
required under this Lease to be maintained by Landlord (and specifically excluding any amounts
payable from the deductible thereunder, which shall be payable by Tenant).


Landlord shall not be required to make any repair resulting from (i) any alteration or modification

(except as provided in the Work Letter) without obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord,
which consent shall be conditioned upon Tenant’s compliance with the provisions of Exhibit
F and any other applicable reasonable requirements of Landlord regarding construction of
improvements and alterations. Tenant shall submit plans and specifications to Landlord with
Tenant’s request for approval and shall reimburse Landlord for all costs which Landlord may incur
in connection with granting approval to Tenant for any such alterations and additions, including
any costs or expenses which Landlord may incur in electing to have outside architects and engineers

business days, then Landlord shall be deemed to disapprove such request. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant may make alterations to the Premises without Landlord’s consent, provided that
the cost of any such alteration does not exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) per
alteration or Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period,
and further provided that such alterations do not (i) require any structural or other substantial
modifications to the Premises or the Building, (ii) require any changes to nor adversely affect the

that such alterations meet the criteria contained in this sentence. In the event Tenant makes any
alterations to the Premises that trigger or give rise to a requirement that the Building or the
Premises come into compliance with any governmental laws, ordinances, statutes, orders and/or
regulations (such as ADA requirements), Tenant shall be fully responsible for complying, at its
sole cost and expense, with same. Tenant shall post, record and file a notice of completion after
completion of such work and provide Landlord with a copy thereof. Tenant shall provide Landlord
with a set of “as-built” drawings for any such work. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Landlord shall cause the Premises to comply as of the date of Substantial
Completion of the Improvements (as defined in the Work Letter) of the Premises with the ADA as it
exists as of such date.

Project caused by the installation or removal of Tenant’s fixtures, equipment, furniture or
alterations. Upon the termination of this Lease, Tenant shall (if required in writing at the time
Landlord consents thereto or, if Landlord’s consent thereto is not required, at the time such items
are installed provided that in each such case Tenant requests in writing at the time of Tenant’s
request for consent or at the time of installation thereof, as applicable, that Landlord make such
a determination) remove any or all trade fixtures, alterations, additions, improvements and
partitions made or installed by Tenant, and restore the Premises to its condition existing prior to
the construction of any such items; provided, however, Landlord has the absolute right to require
Tenant to have all or any portion of such items designated by Landlord other than Tenant’s trade
fixtures or other personal property to remain on the Premises, in which event they shall be and
become the property of Landlord upon the termination of this Lease. All such removals and
restoration shall be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner and so as not to cause any
damage to the Premises or the Project whatsoever.



     10.3 Liens. Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge all claims for labor performed,
supplies furnished and services rendered at the request of Tenant and shall keep the Premises free

services rendered on or at the Premises and Landlord shall have the right to post on the Premises
notices of non-responsibility. If any lien is filed, Tenant shall cause such lien to be released
and removed (or provide security therefor acceptable to Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion)
within ten (10) days after the date of filing, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may take such
action as may be necessary to remove such lien and Tenant shall pay Landlord such amounts expended
by Landlord together with interest thereon at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of
expenditure.



     10.4 Standard of Work. All work to be performed by or for Tenant pursuant hereto
shall be performed diligently and in a good, workmanlike manner, and in compliance with all
Applicable Laws, and/or Tenant and Landlord’s insurance carriers. Landlord shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to inspect periodically the work on the Premises and Landlord may require
changes in the method or quality of the work.


11. USE. The Premises shall be used only for the Permitted Uses set forth in the Basic
Lease Information and for no other uses without Landlord’s prior written consent, not to be
unreasonably withheld. Tenant’s use of the Premises shall be in compliance with and subject to all
applicable laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations, conditions of approval
and requirements of all federal, state, county, municipal and governmental authorities and all
administrative or judicial orders or decrees and all permits, licenses, approvals and other
entitlements issued by governmental entities, and rules of common law, relating to or affecting the
Project, the Premises or the Building or the use or operation thereof, whether now existing or
hereafter enacted, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 12990 42
USC 12111 et seq. (the “ADA”), as the same may be amended from time to time, and all
Environmental Laws (as defined in Section 12.1). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Lease, Tenant shall be responsible for obtaining any permit, business license, or other permits or
licenses required by any governmental agency permitting Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises.
In no event shall the Premises be used for any of the Prohibited Uses set forth on Exhibit
D attached hereto. Tenant shall comply with the rules and regulations attached hereto as
Exhibit E, together with such additional reasonable, non-discriminatory rules and
regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe. Tenant shall not commit waste, overload
the floors or structure of the Building, subject the Premises or the Project to any use which would
damage the same or increase the risk of loss or violate any insurance coverage, permit any
unreasonable odors, smoke, dust, gas, substances, noise or vibrations to emanate from the Premises,
take any action which would constitute a nuisance or would disturb, obstruct or endanger any other
tenants, take any action which would abrogate any warranties, or use or allow the Premises to be
used for any unlawful purpose. Tenant shall have the right to use for its employees and invitees
the parking areas located upon the Premises. Landlord hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause other tenants of the Project to comply with the terms and provisions of their
leases, but notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Landlord be responsible for
non-compliance by any other tenant or occupant of the Project with, or Landlord’s failure to
enforce, any of the rules or regulations or any other terms or provisions of such tenant’s or
occupant’s lease, and neither such noncompliance by any such parties nor Landlord’s failure to
enforce the same shall constitute a default by Landlord under this Lease or entitle Tenant to any
remedies whatsoever against Landlord. Tenant shall promptly comply with the reasonable
requirements of any board of fire insurance underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter
constituted. Tenant shall not do any act which shall in any way encumber the title of Landlord in
and to the Premises, the Building or the Project.

12. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS




     12.1 Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not cause nor permit, nor allow any of
Tenant’s employees, agents, customers, visitors, invitees, licensees, contractors, assignees or
subtenants (individually, a “Tenant Party” and collectively, “Tenant’s Parties”) to
cause or permit, any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, stored, manufactured, generated,
blended, handled, recycled, treated, disposed or used on, under or about the Premises or the
Project, except for routine office and janitorial supplies and fuels and materials to operate
forklifts in usual and customary quantities stored, used and disposed of in accordance with all
applicable Environmental Laws. As used herein, “Hazardous Materials” means any chemical,
substance, material, controlled substance, object, condition, waste, living organism or combination
thereof, whether solid, semi-solid, liquid or gaseous, which is or may be hazardous to human
health or safety or to the environment due to its radioactivity, ignitability, corrosivity,
reactivity, explosivity, toxicity, carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, phytotoxicity, infectiousness or
other harmful or potentially harmful properties or effects, including, without limitation, tobacco
smoke, petroleum and petroleum products, asbestos, radon, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs),
refrigerants (including those substances defined in the Environmental Protection Agency’s
“Refrigerant Recycling Rule,” as amended from time to time) and all of those chemicals,
substances, materials, controlled substances, objects, conditions, wastes, living organisms or
combinations thereof which are now or become in the future listed, defined or regulated in any
manner by any Environmental Law based upon, directly or indirectly, such properties or effects. As
used herein, “Environmental Laws” means any and all federal, state or local environmental,
health and/or safety-related laws, regulations, standards, decisions of courts, ordinances, rules,
codes, orders, decrees, directives, guidelines, permits or permit conditions, currently existing
and as amended, enacted, issued or adopted in the future which are or become applicable to Tenant,
the Premises or the Project. Tenant and Tenant’s Parties shall comply with all Environmental Laws
in connection with Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises and promptly notify Landlord in writing of
the violation of any Environmental Law or presence of any Hazardous Materials, other than office
and janitorial supplies as permitted above, in, on, under or about the Premises or the improvements
or the soil or groundwater thereunder. Landlord shall have the right to enter upon and inspect the
Premises and to conduct tests, monitoring and investigations. If such tests indicate the presence
of any environmental condition caused or negligently or willfully exacerbated by Tenant or any
Tenant Party, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of conducting such tests. The phrase
“environmental condition” shall mean any adverse condition relating to any Hazardous
Materials or the environment, including surface water, groundwater, drinking water supply, land,
surface or subsurface strata or the ambient air and includes air, land and water pollutants, noise,
vibration, light and odors. In the event of any such environmental condition caused by Tenant or
negligently or willfully exacerbated by Tenant or any Tenant Party, Tenant shall promptly take any
and all steps necessary to rectify the same to the satisfaction of the applicable agencies and
Landlord, or shall, at Landlord’s election, reimburse Landlord, upon demand, for the actual cost to
Landlord of performing rectifying work. The reimbursement shall be paid to Landlord in accordance
with the progress of the work, based upon Landlord’s actual cost thereof and within ten (10) days
of receipt of each periodic invoice from Landlord therefor; and upon completion of such work by
Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any shortfall promptly after receipt of Landlord’s bills
therefor or Landlord shall promptly refund to Tenant any excess deposit, as the case may be.



     12.2 Indemnification. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel acceptable
to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s affiliated entities, and each of their
respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders,
agents, contractors, successors and assigns (individually and collectively, “Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties, fines, taxes,
costs, liabilities, losses and expenses arising at any time during or after the Term as a result
(directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (a) Tenant and/or any Tenant Party’s breach of
this Section 12, or (b) the release of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises or other
property as a result (directly or indirectly) of Tenant’s and/or any Tenant Party’s activities, or
negligent failure to act, in connection with the Premises. This indemnity shall include, without
limitation, the cost of any required or necessary repair, cleanup or detoxification, and the
preparation and implementation of any closure, monitoring or other required plans, whether such
action is required or necessary prior to or following the termination of this Lease. Neither the
written consent by Landlord to the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises,
nor the strict compliance by Tenant with all Environmental Laws, shall excuse Tenant from Tenant’s
obligation of indemnification pursuant hereto. Tenant’s obligations pursuant to the foregoing
indemnity shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.



-11-









 





     12.3 Pre-Existing Conditions. Landlord hereby represents to Tenant that, to its
actual knowledge, no environmental condition (as defined in Section 12.1) in violation of law
presently exists as of the Effective Date on, under, or within the Premises. For purposes of this
Lease, current “actual knowledge” shall mean the actual, present knowledge of Eric Blount,
Scott Hirschman and Lou Berchicci as of the date of this Lease, without investigation or inquiry of
any kind.



13. DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION




     13.1 Casualty. If the Premises or Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire or
other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice to Landlord. Within thirty (30) days
after receipt from Tenant of such written notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether, in
Landlord’s reasonable determination, the necessary repairs can reasonably be made: (a) within one
hundred eighty (180) days; or (b) in more than one hundred eighty (180) days, in each case after
the date Landlord receives notice of such casualty from Tenant.



          13.1.1. Less Than 180 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to
such extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180)
days after the date Landlord receives notice of such casualty from Tenant, this Lease shall not
terminate and, provided that insurance proceeds are available to fully repair the damage, Landlord
shall repair the Premises and the initial Tenant Improvements installed or constructed in the
Premises by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter, except that Landlord shall not be required to
rebuild, repair or replace Tenant’s Property which may have been placed in, on or about the
Premises by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant (other than the initial Tenant Improvements
installed or constructed in the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter). If Tenant is
required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord’s repair thereof, the Base Rent
payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the
Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is
damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises) from the date
Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental
abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period the Premises are
unfit for occupancy.




          13.1.2. Greater Than 180 Days. If the Premises or Building should be so damaged that
rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date
Landlord receives notice of such casualty from Tenant, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this
Lease by giving written notice within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord specifying such time
period of repair; and this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant
vacates the Premises. In the event that neither party elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord
shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repairs to the Building or
Premises, provided insurance proceeds are available to repair the damage (except that Landlord
shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant’s Property which may have been placed
in, on or about the Premises by or for the benefit of Tenant other than the initial Tenant
Improvements installed or constructed in the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter). If
Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord’s repair thereof, the
Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of
the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is
damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises), from the date
Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental
abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period that the Premises
are unfit for occupancy.




          13.1.3. Casualty During the Last Year of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding any other
provisions hereof, if the Premises or the Building shall be damaged within the last year of the
Lease Term, and if the cost to repair or reconstruct the portion of the Building or the Premises
which was damaged or destroyed shall exceed $10,000, then, irrespective of the time necessary to
complete such repair or reconstruction, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right, in its sole
discretion, to terminate the Lease effective upon the occurrence of such damage, in which event the
Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises. The foregoing right shall be in
addition to any other right and option of Landlord and Tenant under this Section 13.




     13.2 Tenant’s Fault. If the Premises or any portion of the Premises is damaged
resulting from the negligence or breach of this Lease by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties, Rent
shall not be reduced during the repair of such damage except to the extent such lost Rent payments
are covered by or required to be covered by the insurance required to be maintained by Landlord
pursuant to this Lease and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for



-12-









 







the cost of the repair caused thereby to the extent such cost is not covered by insurance
proceeds received by Landlord.



     13.3 Uninsured Casualty. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay to Landlord
Tenant’s Share of any deductible or retention amount payable under the property insurance for the
Premises. In the event that the Premises or any portion of the Premises is damaged to the extent
Tenant is unable to use the Premises and such damage is not covered by insurance proceeds received
by Landlord (or which would have been received by Landlord had Landlord maintained the insurance
required by this Lease to be maintained by Landlord) or in the event that the holder of any
indebtedness secured by the Premises requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such
indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord’s option either (i) to repair such
damage as soon as reasonably possible at Landlord’s expense, or (ii) to give written notice to
Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Landlord’s
intention to terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage. In the event
Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall have the right within ten (10) days after
receipt of such notice to give written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s commitment to pay the cost of
repair of such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and
Landlord shall make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible subject to the following
conditions: Tenant shall deposit with Landlord Landlord’s estimated cost of such repairs not later
than ten (10) days prior to Landlord’s commencement of the repair work. If the cost of such
repairs exceeds the amount deposited, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such excess cost within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord. Any amount deposited by Tenant in
excess of the cost of such repairs shall be refunded within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s final
payment to Landlord’s contractor. If Tenant does not give such notice within the ten (10) day
period, or fails to make such deposit as required, this Lease shall terminate automatically as of
the date of the occurrence of the damage.



     13.4 Waiver. With respect to any damage or destruction which Landlord is obligated to
repair or may elect to repair, Tenant waives all rights to terminate this Lease pursuant to rights
otherwise presently or hereafter accorded by law.



14. EMINENT DOMAIN




     14.1 Total Condemnation. If all of the Premises is condemned by eminent domain,
inversely condemned or sold under threat of condemnation for any public or quasi-public use or
purpose (“Condemned”), this Lease shall terminate as of the earlier of the date the
condemning authority takes title to or possession of the Premises, and Rent shall be adjusted to
the date of termination.



     14.2 Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the Premises or the Building is
Condemned and Landlord and Tenant determine in their reasonable discretion that such partial
condemnation materially impairs Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for Tenant’s business as
reasonably determined by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant and Landlord shall each have the option of
terminating this Lease as of the earlier of the date title vests in the condemning authority or as
of the date an order of immediate possession is issued and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of
termination. If Landlord and Tenant determine that such partial condemnation does not materially
impair Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for the business of Tenant, Landlord shall promptly
restore the Premises to the extent of any condemnation proceeds recovered by Landlord, excluding
the portion thereof lost in such condemnation, and this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect except that after the date of such title vesting or order of immediate possession Rent shall
be adjusted as reasonably determined by Landlord.



     14.3 Award. If the Premises are wholly or partially Condemned, Landlord shall be
entitled to the entire award paid for such condemnation, and Tenant waives any claim to any part of
the award from Landlord or the condemning authority; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right
to recover from the condemning authority such compensation as may be separately awarded to Tenant
in connection with costs in removing Tenant’s merchandise, furniture, fixtures, leasehold
improvements and equipment to a new location, loss of business and the taking of Tenant’s personal
property provided that such award to Tenant does not reduce the amount of the award payable to
Landlord. No condemnation of any kind shall be construed to constitute an actual or constructive
eviction of Tenant or a breach of any express or implied covenant of quiet enjoyment.



     14.4 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of a temporary condemnation not extending
beyond the Term, this Lease shall remain in effect, Tenant shall continue to pay Rent and Tenant
shall receive any award made



-13-









 







for such condemnation except damages to any of Landlord’s property. If a temporary
condemnation is for a period which extends beyond the Term, this Lease shall terminate as of the
date of initial occupancy by the condemning authority and any such award shall be distributed in
accordance with the preceding section. If a temporary condemnation remains in effect at the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord the reasonable cost of
performing any obligations required of Tenant with respect to the surrender of the Premises.



15. DEFAULT




     15.1 Events of Defaults. The occurrence of any of the following events shall, at
Landlord’s option, constitute an “Event of Default”:



          15.1.1. Vacation or abandonment of the Premises for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days
and failure to secure the Premises;




          15.1.2. Failure to pay Rent on the date when due and the failure continuing for a period of
seven (7) days after such payment is due and notice of such default is given to Tenant, provided
such notice shall be in lieu of any notice required by any Applicable Laws;




          15.1.3. Failure to perform Tenant’s covenants and obligations hereunder (except default in the
payment of Rent) where such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice
from Landlord; provided, however, if the nature of the default is such that more than thirty (30)
days are reasonably required for its cure, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant
commences the cure within such thirty (30) day period and diligently and continuously prosecutes
such cure to completion;




          15.1.4. The making of a general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors; the filing
of a voluntary petition by Tenant or the filing of an involuntary petition by any of Tenant’s
creditors seeking the rehabilitation, liquidation or reorganization of Tenant under any law
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors and, in the case of an involuntary
action, the failure to remove or discharge the same within sixty (60) days of such filing; the
appointment of a receiver or other custodian to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s
assets or this leasehold; Tenant’s insolvency or inability to pay Tenant’s debts or failure
generally to pay Tenant’s debts when due; any court entering a decree or order directing the
winding up or liquidation of Tenant or of substantially all of Tenant’s assets; Tenant taking any
action toward the dissolution or winding up of Tenant’s affairs; the cessation or suspension of
Tenant’s use of the Premises; or the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of
substantially all of Tenant’s assets or this leasehold; or




          15.1.5. The making of any material misrepresentation or omission by Tenant or any successor in
interest of Tenant in any materials delivered by or on behalf of Tenant to Landlord or Landlord’s
lender pursuant to this Lease.




     15.2 Remedies



          15.2.1. Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord
shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant (which notice may be the notice
given under Section 15.1 above, if applicable, and which notice shall be in lieu of any notice
required by any other Applicable Laws and, on the date specified in such notice, this Lease shall
terminate unless on or before such date all arrears of Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant
under this Lease and all costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall
have been paid by Tenant and all other Events of Default at the time existing shall have been fully
remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord.




                    15.2.1.1 Repossession. Following termination, without prejudice to other remedies
Landlord may have, Landlord may (i) peaceably re-enter the Premises upon voluntary surrender by
Tenant or remove Tenant therefrom and any other persons occupying the Premises, using such legal
proceedings as may be available; (ii) repossess the Premises or relet the Premises or any part
thereof for such term (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term), at such rental and upon
such other terms and conditions as Landlord in Landlord’s sole



-14-









 




discretion shall determine, with the right to make reasonable alterations and repairs to the
Premises; and (iii) remove all personal property therefrom.




                    15.2.1.2 Unpaid Rent. Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies of a landlord
provided by Applicable Law, including the right to recover from Tenant but subject to Landlord’s
duty to mitigate damages if required by Applicable Laws: (a) the worth, at the time of award, of
the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination, (b) the worth, at the time of
award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned after the date of
termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of loss of rent that Tenant proves could
have been reasonably avoided, (c) the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the
unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of
rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, and (d) any other amount, and court
costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s default.
The phrase “worth, at the time of award,” as used in (a) and (b) above, shall be computed at the
Applicable Interest Rate, and as used in (c) above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at
the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one
percent (1%).



          15.2.2. Continuation. Even though an Event of Default may have occurred, this Lease
shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant’s right to possession;
and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease allowed by law
(“lessor” may continue the Lease in effect after “lessee’s” breach and abandonment and recover Rent
as it becomes due, if “lessee” has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable
limitations) to recover Rent as it becomes due. Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may,
during the period Tenant is in default, enter the Premises and relet the same, or any portion
thereof, to third parties for Tenant’s account and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all
reasonable costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, brokers’
commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises and like costs. Reletting may be for a period
shorter or longer than the remaining Term. Tenant shall continue to pay the Rent on the date the
same is due. No act by Landlord hereunder, including acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts
to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect
Landlord’s interest under this Lease, shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord notifies Tenant
that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease. In the event that Landlord elects to relet the
Premises, the rent that Landlord receives from reletting shall be applied to the payment of, first,
any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating
Expenses and Real Property Taxes; second, all costs, including maintenance, incurred by Landlord in
reletting; and, third, Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes
under this Lease. After deducting the payments referred to above, any sum remaining from the
rental Landlord receives from reletting shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future
Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. In no event, and notwithstanding anything in Section 16
to the contrary, shall Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord. If, on the date
Rent is due under this Lease, the rent received from the reletting is less than the Rent due on
that date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the remaining Rent due, all costs,
including maintenance, which Landlord incurred in reletting the Premises that remain after applying
the rent received from reletting as provided hereinabove. So long as this Lease is not terminated,
Landlord shall have the right to remedy any default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises,
to cause a receiver to be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to
add to the Rent payable hereunder all of Landlord’s reasonable costs in so doing, with interest at
the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure. Landlord shall have no duty to
relet the Premises so long as it has other unleased space available in the Project.




     15.3 Cumulative. Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein or now or
hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and shall not
preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser
amount than the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment
as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of Rent; and Landlord may accept
such payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue
other remedies.


16. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign, sublet or otherwise transfer,
whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, the Premises or any part thereof
without Landlord’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided,
however, Tenant agrees it shall be reasonable for Landlord to disapprove of a requested assignment,
if the proposed assignee does not have a tangible net worth (as


-15-









 






determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied) equal
to or greater than that of Tenant as of the date of the Lease as shown in the financial information
provided to Landlord. The merger of Tenant with any other entity or the transfer of any
controlling or managing ownership or beneficial interest in Tenant, or the assignment of a
substantial portion of the assets of Tenant, whether or not located at the Premises, shall
constitute an assignment hereunder. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet any or all of
the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice thereof with copies of all related
documents and agreements associated with the assignment or sublease, including without limitation,
the financial statements of any proposed assignee, twenty (20) days prior to the anticipated
effective date of the assignment or sublease. Tenant shall pay Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’
fees incurred in the review of such documentation plus an administrative fee of Five Hundred
Dollars ($500.00) for each proposed transfer. Landlord shall have a period of fifteen (15) days
following receipt of such notice and all related documents and agreements to notify Tenant in
writing of Landlord’s approval or disapproval of the proposed assignment or sublease. If Landlord
fails to notify Tenant in writing of such election, Landlord shall be deemed to have disapproved
such assignment or subletting. This Lease may not be assigned by operation of law. Any purported
assignment or subletting contrary to the provisions hereof shall be void and shall constitute an
Event of Default hereunder. Except in the case of an assignment or sublease to an Affiliate, if
Tenant receives rent or other consideration for any such transfer in excess of the Rent, or in case
of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such Rent that is fairly allocable to
such portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments required hereunder
are appropriately taken into account, Tenant shall pay Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the
difference between each such payment of rent or other consideration and the Rent required
hereunder. Landlord may, without waiving any rights or remedies, collect rent from the assignee,
subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved and apportion
any excess rent so collected in accordance with the terms of the preceding sentence. Such
acceptance of Rent shall in no event be deemed to imply that Landlord is approving a subtenant or
assignee which Landlord has not approved in writing pursuant to the requirements of this Section
16. Notwithstanding any assignment or subleasing of the Premises, Tenant shall continue to be
liable as a principal and not as a guarantor or surety to the same extent as though no assignment
or subletting had been made. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this
Lease or amendments or modifications to the Lease by assignees of Tenant without notifying Tenant
or any successor of Tenant and without obtaining their consent. No permitted transfer shall be
effective until there has been delivered to Landlord a counterpart of the transfer instrument in
which the transferee agrees to be and remain jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the
payment of Rent pertaining to the Premises and for the performance of all the terms and provisions
of this Lease relating thereto arising on or after the date of the transfer. Notwithstanding the
provisions set forth above requiring Landlord’s consent to any assignment or subletting, Tenant may
assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, without Landlord’s consent, to any
partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other entity which controls, is controlled
by, or is under common control with Tenant (control being defined for such purposes as the power to
direct the management of the relevant entity), or to any partnership, corporation or other entity
resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant or to any person or entity which acquires at
least a majority of all the assets of Tenant as a going concern (collectively, an
“Affiliate”); provided, that (i) Landlord receives twenty (20) days prior written notice of
such assignment or subletting together with reasonable financial information concerning the
creditworthiness of the Affiliate, (ii) the Affiliate assumes (in the event of an assignment) in
writing all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, (iii) Landlord receives a fully executed copy
of such assignment or sublease agreement between Tenant and the Affiliate, and (iv) the original
Tenant hereunder, i.e., LaCrosse Footwear, Inc., remains liable for all of Tenant’s obligations
under this Lease. In no event shall the transfer or sale of public stock sold on an exchange
regulated by the SEC in Tenant or any Affiliate constitute a transfer under this Lease. Landlord
may assign its interest in the Lease in its sole discretion without Tenant’s consent.




17. ESTOPPEL, ATTORNMENT AND SUBORDINATION




     17.1 Estoppel. Within ten (10) days after written request by Landlord, Tenant shall
deliver an estoppel certificate duly executed (and acknowledged if required by any lender), in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit G, or in such other form as may be acceptable to the
lender, which form may include some or all of the provisions contained in Exhibit G, to any
proposed mortgagee, purchaser or Landlord. Tenant’s failure to deliver said statement in such time
period shall be an Event of Default hereunder and shall be conclusive upon Tenant that (a) this
Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord;
(b) there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance and Tenant has no right of offset,
counterclaim or deduction against Rent hereunder; and (c) no more than one month’s Base Rent has
been paid in advance. If any financier should require



-16-









 







that this Lease be amended (other than in the description of the Premises, the Term, the
Permitted Use, the Rent or as will substantially, materially or adversely affect the rights of
Tenant), Landlord shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, which notice shall be accompanied by
a Lease supplement embodying such amendments. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the receipt
of Landlord’s notice, execute and deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement. If Tenant
fails to deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement within ten (10) days after receipt of
Landlord’s notice, Tenant shall be deemed to have given Landlord a power of attorney to execute
such supplement on behalf of Tenant.



     17.2 Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all ground leases,
master leases and the lien of all mortgages and deeds of trust which now or hereafter affect the
Premises or the Project or Landlord’s interest therein, and all amendments thereto, provided that
Tenant receives an executed Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit H (or such other form as may be commercially reasonable, which form may
include some or all of the provisions contained in Exhibit H, so long as such form includes a
non-disturbance agreement in favor of Tenant) or as otherwise may be required by the applicable
lender, ground lessee and/or master lessor (so long as such documentation includes a
non-disturbance agreement in favor of Tenant) (a “SNDA”). If requested, Tenant shall
execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord’s request whatever
documentation that may reasonably be required to further effect the provisions of this paragraph
including a SNDA, or as otherwise may be required by the applicable lender, ground lessee and/or
master lessor (so long as such documentation includes a SNDA).



     17.3 Attornment. Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant will recognize as its landlord
under this Lease and shall attorn to any person succeeding to the interest of Landlord in respect
of the land and the buildings governed by this Lease upon any foreclosure of any mortgage upon such
land or buildings or upon the execution of any deed in lieu of foreclosure in respect to such deed
of trust. If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming
its attornment as provided for herein; provided, however, that no such beneficiary or successor-
in-interest shall be bound by any payment of Base Rent for more than one (1) month in advance, or
any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the express written consent of such
beneficiary where such consent is required under applicable loan documents.

assigns (including any Affiliates thereof) consents to service of process by any means authorized

          19.1.6. No Option. Submission of this Lease to Tenant for examination or negotiation
does not constitute an option to lease, offer to lease or a reservation of, or option for, the

hereof by Landlord and Tenant.




          19.1.7. Successors and Assigns. This Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the

as creating the relationship of principal and agent or of partnership or of joint venture by the
parties hereto or any relationship other than the relationship of landlord and tenant.




          19.1.11. Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant or a mutual
cancellation thereof or a termination by Landlord shall not work a merger and shall, at the option
of Landlord, terminate all or any existing subtenancies or may, at the option of Landlord, operate

          19.1.12. Headings. Section headings have been inserted solely as a matter of
convenience and are not intended to define or limit the scope of any of the provisions contained

corridors or the exterior of the Premises (whether located inside or outside of the Premises) shall
be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval and shall be subject to any applicable governmental
laws, ordinances, and regulations and in compliance with Landlord’s signage program. Tenant shall
remove all such signs and graphics prior to the termination of this Lease. Such installations and
removals shall be made in such manner as to avoid injury or defacement of the Premises; and Tenant
shall repair any injury or defacement, including without limitation, discoloration caused by such

     19.3 Waiver. No waiver of any default or breach hereunder shall be implied from any
omission to take action on account thereof, notwithstanding any custom and practice or course of
dealing. No waiver by either party of any provision under this Lease shall be effective unless in
writing and signed by such party. No waiver shall affect any default other than the default
specified in the waiver and then such waiver shall be operative only for the time and to the extent
therein stated. Waivers of any covenant shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach of the same.

within ten (10) days after request (provided such request may not be made more often than once in
any consecutive twelve (12)



-18-









 







month period unless an uncured Event of Default exists or except in connection with any
financing or sale of all or any portion of the Project), a current, accurate financial statement
for Tenant and Tenant’s business and financial statements for Tenant and Tenant’s business for each
of the three (3) years prior to the current financial statement year prepared under generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied and certified as true and correct by an
appropriate officer of Tenant. Tenant shall also provide within said 10-day period such other
financial information or tax returns as may be reasonably required by Landlord, purchaser or any
lender of either.



     19.5 Limitation of Liability. The obligations of Landlord under this Lease are not
personal obligations of the individual partners, members, managers, directors, officers,
shareholders, agents or employees of Landlord; and Tenant shall look solely to the Building for
satisfaction of any liability of Landlord and shall not look to other assets of Landlord nor seek
recourse against the assets of the individual partners, directors, officers, shareholders, agents
or employees of Landlord. Whenever Landlord transfers its interest, Landlord shall be
automatically released from further performance under this Lease and from all further liabilities
and expenses hereunder and the transferee of Landlord’s interest shall assume all liabilities and
obligations of Landlord hereunder after the date of such transfer.



     19.6 Notices. All notices to be given hereunder shall be in writing and mailed
postage prepaid by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or delivered by personal
or courier delivery or recognized overnight delivery service, or sent by facsimile, electronically
confirmed, (immediately followed by one of the preceding methods), to Landlord’s Address and
Tenant’s Address, or to such other place as Landlord or Tenant may designate in a written notice
given to the other party. Notices shall be deemed served upon the first attempted delivery by the
U.S. Postal Service, the courier or a recognized overnight delivery service, or upon receipt of the
facsimile prior to 5 p.m. on any business day, or, if after 5 p.m., on the next business day.



     19.7 Brokerage Commission. Landlord shall pay a brokerage commission to Landlord’s
Broker specified in the Basic Lease Information in accordance with a separate agreement between
Landlord and Landlord’s Broker and Tenant’s Broker. Landlord shall have no further or separate
obligation for payment of any commissions or fees to any other broker or finder. Tenant warrants
to Landlord that Tenant’s sole contact with Landlord or with the Premises in connection with this
transaction has been directly with Landlord, Landlord’s Broker and Tenant’s Broker specified in the
Basic Lease Information, and that no other broker or finder can properly claim a right to a
commission or a finder’s fee based upon contacts between the claimant and Tenant. Any commissions
or fees payable to Tenant’s Broker with respect to this Transaction shall be paid by Landlord’s
Broker or Landlord. Subject to the foregoing, Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord
harmless from any claims or liability, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with a
claim by any person for a real estate broker’s commission, finder’s fee or other compensation based
upon any statement, representation or agreement of Tenant, and Landlord agrees to indemnify and
hold Tenant harmless from any such claims or liability, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, based
upon any statement, representation or agreement of Landlord.



     19.8 Authorization. Each individual executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant
represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on
behalf of Tenant and that such execution is binding upon Tenant.



     19.9 Holding Over; Surrender



          19.9.1. Holding Over. If Tenant holds over the Premises or any part thereof after
expiration of the Term, such holding over shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a month-to-month
tenancy, at a rent equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent in effect immediately
prior to such holding over and shall otherwise be on all the other terms and conditions of this
Lease. This paragraph shall not be construed as Landlord’s permission for Tenant to hold over.
Acceptance of Rent by Landlord following expiration or termination shall not constitute a renewal
of this Lease or extension of the Term except as specifically set forth above. If Tenant fails to
surrender the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify
and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss or liability resulting from or arising out of
Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises, including, but not limited to, any amounts required to
be paid to any tenant or prospective tenant who was to have occupied the Premises after the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and any related attorneys’ fees and brokerage
commissions.




-19-









 








          19.9.2. Surrender. Upon the termination of this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession
of the Premises, Tenant will surrender the Premises in a condition with the Tenant Improvements (as
defined in the Work Letter) intact, broom clean, together with all keys, in good condition and
repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall patch and fill all holes within the
Premises and all penetrations of the roof shall be resealed to a watertight condition. In no event
may Tenant remove from the Premises any mechanical or electrical systems or any wiring or any other
aspect of any systems within the Premises. Conditions existing because of Tenant’s failure to
perform maintenance, repairs or replacements shall not be deemed “reasonable wear and tear.”




     19.10 Joint and Several. If Tenant consists of more than one person, the obligation
of all such persons shall be joint and several.



     19.11 Covenants and Conditions. Each provision to be performed by Tenant hereunder
shall be deemed to be both a covenant and a condition.



     19.12 Auctions. Tenant shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, any auction
upon the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent. Landlord shall not be obligated to
exercise any standard of reasonableness in determining whether to permit an auction.



     19.13 Consents. Except as otherwise provided elsewhere in this Lease, Landlord’s
actual reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, architects’, attorneys’,
engineers’ and other consultants’ fees) incurred in the consideration of, or response to, a request
by Tenant for any Landlord consent, including but not limited to, consents to an assignment, a
subletting or the presence or use of a Hazardous Material, shall be paid by Tenant upon receipt of
an invoice and supporting documentation therefor. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Lease, whenever Landlord’s consent to or approval of any matter is required hereunder, such
approval or consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord’s consent to any act, assignment
or subletting shall not constitute an acknowledgment that no Event of Default or breach by Tenant
of this Lease exists, nor shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing Event of
Default or breach, except as may be otherwise specifically stated in writing by Landlord at the
time of such consent. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the failure to specify herein any
particular condition to Landlord’s consent shall not preclude the imposition by Landlord at the
time of consent of such further or other conditions as are then reasonable with reference to the
particular matter for which consent is being given.



     19.14 Force Majeure. “Force Majeure” as used herein means delays resulting
from causes beyond the reasonable control of the other party, including, without limitation, any
delay caused by any action, inaction, order, ruling, moratorium, regulation, statute, condition or
other decision of any private party or governmental agency having jurisdiction over any portion of
the Project, over the construction anticipated to occur thereon or over any uses thereof, or by
delays in inspections or in issuing approvals by private parties or permits by governmental
agencies, or by fire, flood, inclement weather, strikes, lockouts or other labor or industrial
disturbance (whether or not on the part of agents or employees of either party hereto engaged in
the construction of the Premises), civil disturbance, order of any government, court or regulatory
body claiming jurisdiction or otherwise, act of public enemy, war, riot, sabotage, blockage,
embargo, failure or inability to secure materials, supplies or labor through ordinary sources by
reason of shortages or priority, discovery of hazardous or toxic materials, earthquake, or other
natural disaster, delays caused by any dispute resolution process, or any cause whatsoever beyond
the reasonable control (excluding financial inability) of the party whose performance is required,
or any of its contractors or other representatives, whether or not similar to any of the causes
hereinabove stated. In no event shall an event of Force Majeure delay payment of Rent hereunder



     19.15 Mortgagee Protection. Tenant agrees to give any holder of any mortgage or deed
of trust secured by the Real Property, by registered or certified mail or nationally recognized
overnight delivery service, a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord by Tenant,
provided that, prior to such notice, Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of service on
Tenant of a copy of assignment of rents and leases or otherwise) of the address of such holder of a
mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such
default within thirty (30) days after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured
or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has
commenced within such thirty (30) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps
necessary to cure or correct such default), then the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust shall
have an additional forty-five (45) days within which to cure or correct such




-20-











 




default (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such
additional time as may be necessary if such holder of any mortgage or deed of trust has commenced
within such forty-five (45) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary
to cure or correct such default). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any holder of
any mortgage or deed of trust have any obligation to cure any default of the Landlord.




     19.16 Intentionally Omitted.



     19.17 Hazardous Substance Disclosure. Gasoline and other automotive fluids, asbestos
containing materials, maintenance fluids, copying fluids and other office supplies and equipment,
certain construction and finish materials, tobacco smoke, cosmetics and other personal items may be
present on the Project. Gasoline and other automotive fluids are found in the garage and parking
areas of the Project. Cleaning, lubricating and hydraulic fluids used in the operation and
maintenance of the Building are found in the utility areas of the Building not generally accessible
to Building occupants or the public. Many Building occupants use copy machines and printers with
associated fluids and toners, and pens, markers, inks, and office equipment that may contain
Hazardous Materials. Certain adhesives, paints and other construction materials and finishes used
in portions of the Building may contain Hazardous Materials. The Building may from time to time be
exposed to tobacco smoke. Building occupants and other persons entering the Building from time to
time may use or carry prescription and non-prescription drugs, perfumes, cosmetics and other
toiletries, and foods and beverages, some of which may contain Hazardous Materials. By its
execution of this Lease, Tenant acknowledges the notice set forth hereinabove.



     19.18 Addenda. The Addenda attached hereto and identified with this Lease,
specifically Addendum 1 (Two Options to Extend Lease Term) and Addendum 2 (Work Letter), are
incorporated herein by this reference as if fully set forth herein.



     19.19 Condition Precedent to Tenant’s Obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease provided each of the
following conditions has been met: (i) Landlord fails to obtain a ten (10) year real property tax

Tenant shall be released from all further obligations hereunder; provided Tenant shall have the
obligation to pay Landlord an amount equal to $50,000.00 which is due and payable under the Cost
Reimbursement Agreement between Landlord and Tenant dated the 19th day of May, 2008 as
well as all actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Landlord in regards to the design and
construction of the Improvements through June 16, 2008 (net any Landlord markup) not to exceed

ADDENDUM 1




TWO OPTIONS TO EXTEND LEASE TERM




ATTACHED TO AND A PART OF THE LEASE AGREEMENT

DATED JUNE 11, 2008 BETWEEN




267 ASSOCIATES, L.L.C.

and

LACROSSE FOOTWEAR, INC.




     THIS ADDENDUM 1 TO LEASE (“Addendum”) is attached to and constitutes an integral part
of the Lease between 267 ASSOCIATES, L.L.C., an Indiana limited liability company, as Landlord, and
LACROSSE FOOTWEAR, INC., a Wisconsin corporation, as Tenant. The terms of this Addendum shall be
incorporated in the Lease for all purposes. All words and phrases not specifically defined in this
Addendum are as defined in the Lease. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of the
Lease and the provisions of this Addendum, this Addendum shall control.



     The following new Sections are hereby added to the Lease which state in their entirety as
follows:



     20. Options to Extend




     20.1 First Option to Extend. Provided (i) Tenant is not in default under the
terms of this Lease past any applicable cure period at the time Tenant delivers the First
Extension Notice or at the commencement of the First Extension Term (as hereinafter
defined), (ii) Tenant is in possession of at least eighty percent (80%) of the Premises
(i.e., Tenant has not subleased twenty percent (20%) or more of the Premises at such time),
including any expansion space, and (iii) Landlord has not given Tenant more than two (2)
notices of default in any twelve (12) month period for nonpayment of monetary obligations
during the two (2) Lease Years immediately preceding the expiration of the initial Term,
Tenant shall have the option to renew this Lease for an additional period of sixty (60)
months, commencing on the day following expiration of the initial Term (the “First
Extension Term”). Tenant must give Landlord notice (hereinafter called the “First
Extension Notice”) of its election to extend the Term of the Lease at least one hundred
eighty (180) days, but not more than two hundred ten (210) days, prior to the scheduled
expiration date of the initial Term. The First Extension Term shall be on all the terms and
conditions of this Lease, except for the Base Rent and except that Landlord shall have no
additional obligation for free rent, leasehold improvements or for any other tenant
inducements for the First Extension Term. Base Rent for the First Extension Term shall be
the greater of (a) the Base Rent during the last year of the initial Term, or (b) the First
Extension Fair Market Rent. The term “First Extension Fair Market Rent”
shall mean the Base Rent, expressed as an annual rent per square foot of floor area, which
Landlord would have received from leasing the Premises for the First Extension Term to an
unaffiliated person which is not then a tenant in the Project, assuming that such space were
to be delivered in “as-is” condition, and taking into account the rental which such other
tenant would most likely have paid for such premises, including market escalations, provided
that the First Extension Fair Market Rent shall not in any event be less than the Base Rent
for the Premises as of the expiration of the initial Term. First Extension Fair Market Rent
shall not be reduced by reason of any costs or expenses saved by Landlord by reason of
Landlord’s not having to find a new tenant for the Premises (including without limitation
brokerage commissions, cost of improvements necessary to prepare the space for such tenant’s
occupancy, rent concession, or lost rental income during any vacancy period). First
Extension Fair Market Rent means only the rent component defined as Base Rent in the Lease
and does not include reimbursements and payments by Tenant to Landlord with respect to
Operating Expenses and other items payable or reimbursable by Tenant under the Lease. In
addition to its obligation to pay Base Rent (as determined herein), Tenant shall continue to
pay and reimburse Landlord as set forth in the Lease with respect to such operating expenses
and other items with respect to the Premises during the First Extension Term.




          Landlord shall notify Tenant of its determination of the First Extension Fair Market
Rent (which shall be made in Landlord’s sole discretion and shall in any event be not less
than the Base Rent in effect as of the expiration of the initial Term) for the First
Extension Term within thirty (30) days of receipt of



-23-









 






the First Extension Notice, and Tenant shall advise Landlord of any objection within 30 days
of receipt of Landlord’s notice. Failure to respond within the 30-day period shall
constitute Tenant’s acceptance of such First Extension Fair Market Rent. If Tenant objects,
Landlord and Tenant shall commence negotiations to attempt to agree upon the First Extension
Fair Market Rent within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice. If the
parties cannot agree, each acting in good faith but without any obligation to agree, then
the parties shall proceed with the arbitration procedure provided below to determine the
First Extension Fair Market Rent no later than ten (10) days after the thirty (30) day
negotiation period.




          Arbitration to determine the First Extension Fair Market Rent shall be in accordance
with the Real Estate Valuation Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Unless otherwise required by state law, arbitration shall be conducted in the metropolitan
area where the Project is located by a single arbitrator unaffiliated with either party.
Landlord and Tenant shall each submit to the arbitrator their respective proposal of First
Extension Fair Market Rent. The arbitrator must choose between the Landlord’s proposal and
the Tenant’s proposal and may not compromise between the two or select some other amount.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the First Extension Fair Market Rent determined
by the arbitrator shall not be less than, and the arbitrator shall have no authority to
determine a First Extension Fair Market Rent less than, the Base Rent in effect as of the
scheduled expiration of the initial Term. The cost of the arbitration shall be paid by
Landlord if the First Extension Fair Market Rent is that proposed by Tenant and by Tenant if
the First Extension Fair Market Rent is that proposed by Landlord. If the arbitrator has
not determined the First Extension Fair Market Rent as of the end of the initial Term,
Tenant shall pay 105 percent of the Base Rent in effect under the Lease as of the end of the
initial Term until the First Extension Fair Market Rent is determined as provided herein.
Upon such determination, Landlord and Tenant shall make the appropriate adjustments to the
payments between them.




          The arbitration process described above shall be limited to the determination of the
Base Rent and shall not affect or otherwise reduce or modify the Tenant’s obligation to pay
or reimburse Landlord for such operating expenses and other reimbursable items.




          If Tenant does not send the First Extension Notice within the period set forth above,
Tenant’s right to extend the Term shall automatically terminate. Time is of the essence as
to the giving of the First Extension Notice and the notice of Tenant’s objection.




          If the Lease is extended for the First Extension Term, then Landlord shall prepare and
Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease confirming the extension of the Term and the
other provisions applicable thereto.




     20.2 Second Option to Extend. Provided (i) Tenant is not in default under the
terms of this Lease past any applicable cure period at the time Tenant delivers the Second
Extension Notice or at the commencement of the Second Extension Term (as hereinafter
defined), (ii) Tenant is in possession of at least eighty percent (80%) of the Premises
(i.e., Tenant has not subleased twenty percent (20%) or more of the Premises at such time),
including any expansion space, and (iii) Landlord has not given Tenant more than two (2)
notices of default in any twelve (12) month period for nonpayment of monetary obligations
during the two (2) Lease Years immediately preceding the expiration of the First Extension
Term, Tenant shall have the option to renew this Lease for an additional period of sixty
(60) months, commencing on the day following expiration of the First Extension Term (the
“Second Extension Term”). Tenant must give Landlord notice (hereinafter called the
“Second Extension Notice”) of its election to extend the Term of the Lease at least
one hundred eighty (180) days, but not more than two hundred ten (210) days, prior to the
scheduled expiration date of the First Extension Term. The Second Extension Term shall be
on all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except for the Base Rent and except that
Landlord shall have no additional obligation for free rent, leasehold improvements or for
any other tenant inducements for the Second Extension Term. Base Rent for the Second
Extension Term shall be the greater of (a) the Base Rent during the last year of the First
Extension Term, or (b) the Second Extension Fair Market Rent. The term “Second
Extension Fair Market Rent” shall mean the Base Rent, expressed as an annual
rent per square foot of floor area, which Landlord would have received from leasing the
Premises for the Second Extension Term to an unaffiliated person which is not then a tenant
in the Project, assuming that such space were to be delivered in “as-is” condition, and
taking into account the rental which such other tenant would most likely have paid for



-24-









 






such premises, including market escalations, provided that the Second Extension Fair
Market Rent shall not in any event be less than the Base Rent for the Premises as of the
expiration of the First Extension Term. Second Extension Fair Market Rent shall not be
reduced by reason of any costs or expenses saved by Landlord by reason of Landlord’s not
having to find a new tenant for the Premises (including without limitation brokerage
commissions, cost of improvements necessary to prepare the space for such tenant’s
occupancy, rent concession, or lost rental income during any vacancy period). Second
Extension Fair Market Rent means only the rent component defined as Base Rent in the Lease
and does not include reimbursements and payments by Tenant to Landlord with respect to
Operating Expenses and other items payable or reimbursable by Tenant under the Lease. In
addition to its obligation to pay Base Rent (as determined herein), Tenant shall continue to
pay and reimburse Landlord as set forth in the Lease with respect to such operating expenses
and other items with respect to the Premises during the Second Extension Term.




          Landlord shall notify Tenant of its determination of the Second Extension Fair Market
Rent (which shall be made in Landlord’s sole discretion and shall in any event be not less
than the Base Rent in effect as of the expiration of the First Extension Term) for the
Second Extension Term within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Second Extension Notice, and
Tenant shall advise Landlord of any objection within 30 days of receipt of Landlord’s
notice. Failure to respond within the 30-day period shall constitute Tenant’s acceptance of
such Second Extension Fair Market Rent. If Tenant objects, Landlord and Tenant shall
commence negotiations to attempt to agree upon the Second Extension Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice. If the parties cannot agree,
each acting in good faith but without any obligation to agree, then the parties shall
proceed with the arbitration procedure provided below to determine the Second Extension Fair
Market Rent no later than ten (10) days after the thirty (30) day negotiation period.




          Arbitration to determine the Second Extension Fair Market Rent shall be in accordance
with the Real Estate Valuation Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Unless otherwise required by state law, arbitration shall be conducted in the metropolitan
area where the Project is located by a single arbitrator unaffiliated with either party.
Landlord and Tenant shall each submit to the arbitrator their respective proposal of Second
Extension Fair Market Rent. The arbitrator must choose between the Landlord’s proposal and
the Tenant’s proposal and may not compromise between the two or select some other amount.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Second Extension Fair Market Rent determined
by the arbitrator shall not be less than, and the arbitrator shall have no authority to
determine a Second Extension Fair Market Rent less than, the Base Rent in effect as of the
scheduled expiration of the First Extension Term. The cost of the arbitration shall be paid
by Landlord if the Second Extension Fair Market Rent is that proposed by Tenant and by
Tenant if the Second Extension Fair Market Rent is that proposed by Landlord. If the
arbitrator has not determined the Second Extension Fair Market Rent as of the end of the
First Extension Term, Tenant shall pay 105 percent of the Base Rent in effect under the
Lease as of the end of the First Extension Term until the Second Extension Fair Market Rent
is determined as provided herein. Upon such determination, Landlord and Tenant shall make
the appropriate adjustments to the payments between them.




          The arbitration process described above shall be limited to the determination of the
Base Rent and shall not affect or otherwise reduce or modify the Tenant’s obligation to pay
or reimburse Landlord for such operating expenses and other reimbursable items.




          If Tenant does not send the First Extension Notice as provided in 20.1 above or the
Second Extension Notice within the period set forth above, Tenant’s right to extend the Term
shall automatically terminate. Time is of the essence as to the giving of the Second
Extension Notice and the notice of Tenant’s objection.




          If the Lease is extended for the Second Extension Term, then Landlord shall prepare and
Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease confirming the extension of the Term and the
other provisions applicable thereto.

ADDENDUM 2




WORK LETTER




ATTACHED TO AND A PART OF THE LEASE AGREEMENT

DATED JUNE 11, 2008 BETWEEN




267 ASSOCIATES, L.L.C.

and

LACROSSE FOOTWEAR, INC.




     THIS ADDENDUM 2 (“Addendum 2”) is entered into by and between 267 ASSOCIATES, L.L.C.,
an Indiana limited liability company (“Landlord”), and LACROSSE FOOTWEAR, INC., a Wisconsin
corporation (“Tenant”). Landlord and Tenant have entered into that certain Single-Tenant
Industrial Triple Net Lease (the “Lease”) dated as of the date hereof, covering certain premises
(the “Premises”) more particularly described in the Lease. This Addendum 2 is attached to the
Lease and is hereby incorporated into the Lease by this reference. Capitalized terms not defined
in this Addendum 2 shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Lease.



     1. Definitions. As used in this Addendum 2 and in the Lease, the term “Shell”
shall mean those improvements set forth on the “Final Shell Plans” (defined in Section 5(b) of this
Addendum 2); which shall include a concrete, precast industrial building to contain approximately
380,000 square feet of floor area (the “Building”). As used in this Addendum 2 and in the
Lease, the term “Tenant Improvements” shall mean all the improvements (other than the Shell
improvements) set forth on the “Final Tenant Improvement Plans” (defined in Section 5(b) of this
Addendum 2) to be constructed within the Building, including, without limitation, the construction
of an office area of approximately five thousand (5,000) square feet as generally depicted on
Schedule 3 attached hereto (the “Office Portion of the Premises”). As used in this Addendum 2 and
the Lease, the term “Improvements” shall collectively mean the Shell and the Tenant Improvements.
The construction and installation of the Improvements is sometimes referred to herein as the
“Work”.



     2. Completion of Improvements; Liquidated Damages. Landlord shall Substantially
Complete the Improvements in accordance with the terms of this Addendum 2 on, or before, March 1,
2009 (the “Substantial Completion Target Date”), which date shall be adjusted as a result
of Force Majeure Delays. Landlord understands that time is of the essence of the Lease and this
Addendum 2 and acknowledges, in the event Landlord breaches this Addendum 2 and fails to
Substantially Complete the Improvements by March 1, 2009, and fails to cure such breach and
Substantially Complete the Improvements by April 1, 2009 (the “Outside Substantial Completion
Date”), which date shall be adjusted as a result of Force Majeure Delays, that it would be
impractical and extremely difficult, if not impossible, to accurately determine the damages that
Tenant would suffer as the result of such delay. Landlord agrees, therefore, if Landlord fails to
Substantially Complete the Improvements by the Outside Substantial Completion Date that Landlord
shall be liable for, and shall pay to Tenant, as agreed liquidated damages, the lump sum amount
equal to $100,000.00, payable in full within five (5) days of the Outside Substantial Completion
Date. Furthermore, in the event the Improvements are not Substantially Complete by May 1, 2009
(“Secondary Substantial Completion Date”), which date shall be adjusted as a result of
Force Majeure Delays, Landlord shall be liable for, and shall pay to Tenant, as additional agreed
liquidated damages, the lump sum amount of $100,000.00, payable in full within five (5) days of the
Secondary Substantial Completion Date. Furthermore, in the event the Improvements are not
Substantially Complete by June 1, 2009 (“Tertiary Substantial Completion Date”), which date
shall be adjusted as a result of Force Majeure Delays, Landlord shall be liable for, and shall pay
to Tenant, as additional agreed liquidated damages, the lump sum amount of $100,000.00, payable in
full within five (5) days of the Tertiary Substantial Completion Date. Tenant agrees and
understands that each liquidated damage amounts is individual and shall in no event be deemed
cumulative. Furthermore, in the event the Improvements are not Substantially Completed on, or
prior to, July 1, 2009, which date shall be adjusted as a result of Force Majeure Delays, Tenant
shall have the right and option, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Lease effective upon
Landlord’s receipt of written notice of Tenant’s intent to terminate (provided such notice shall be
null and void in the event the



-27-









 







Improvements are Substantially Complete prior to Landlord’s receipt of such notice), in which
event Landlord and Tenant shall be released from all further obligations under the Lease .



     3. Designation of Representatives. With respect to the planning, design and
construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord hereby designates Eric Blount, Scott Hirschman
and Andy Finke as “Landlord’s Representatives” and Tenant hereby designates Dave Carlson
and Gary Carlson as “Tenant’s Representatives.” Tenant hereby confirms that Tenant’s
Representatives have full authority to act on behalf of and to bind Tenant with respect to all
matters pertaining to the planning, design and construction of the Improvements. Landlord hereby
confirms that Landlord’s Representatives have full authority to act on behalf of Landlord with
respect to matters pertaining to the planning, design and construction of the Improvements. Either
party may change its designated representative upon five (5) days prior written notice to the other
party.



     4. Architect. JRA Architecture, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company
(“Architect”), shall act as the architect with respect to the design of the Shell and the
Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall enter into a contract with the Architect for such services
(the “Architect Contract”). The parties acknowledge and agree that the Architect Contract
entered into with the Architect will obligate the Architect to issue to both Landlord and Tenant an
architect’s certificate (“Architect’s Certificate”) upon Substantial Completion (as
hereinafter defined) of the Improvements certifying the Substantial Completion of the Improvements
in accordance with the Final Plans. Landlord reserves the right to retain a development consultant
to assist Landlord in performing its obligations under this Addendum 2 and under the Lease. All
costs associated with any such developer shall be included within the cost of the Work.



     5. Improvement Plans



          (a) Preliminary Plans. Attached hereto are the following preliminary plans and base
building specifications for the Shell and the Tenant Improvements (collectively, the
“Preliminary Plans”), which have been reviewed and approved by Landlord and Tenant
including the following: (i) Schedule 1 (Building Site Plan); (ii) Schedule 2 (Base Building
Specifications for the Shell); and (iii) Schedule 3 (Floor Plan for the Office Portion of the
Premises).




          (b) Final Plans. No later than July 1, 2008, the parties shall agree upon final plans
and specifications for the Tenant Improvements (“Final Tenant Improvement Plans”) which
shall be consistent with the Preliminary Plans attached hereto, except for the changes, if any,
mutually agreed to be made thereto by the parties. Included in the Final Tenant Improvement Plans
will be the architectural plans for the Tenant Improvements. No later than June 20, 2008, the
parties shall agree upon final plans and specifications for the Shell which will be based on
Schedule 2 (“Final Shell Plans”) which shall be consistent with the Preliminary Plans,
except for the changes, if any, mutually agreed to be made thereto by the parties. Included in the
Final Shell Plans shall be the civil, architectural and structural plans for the Shell and the
landscape plan for the exterior of the Building. The Final Tenant Improvement Plans and the Final
Shell Plans are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Final Plans”. When the Final
Plans have been approved by Tenant and Landlord, Architect shall submit the Final Plans to the
appropriate governmental agency for plan checking and the issuance of a building permit for the
Tenant Improvements. Architect shall make any and all changes to the Final Plans required by any
applicable governmental entity to obtain a building permit for the Tenant Improvements.




          (c) Work Cost Estimate. Prior to the commencement of construction of any of the
Tenant Improvements and on a monthly basis during the design stage of the Tenant Improvements,
Landlord shall submit to Tenant a written estimate of the cost to complete the Tenant Improvements,
which written estimate will be based upon the Final Plans taking into account any modifications
which may be required to reflect changes in the Final Plans required by the appropriate
governmental authorities in connection with the issuance of a building permit (the “Work Cost
Estimate”). Tenant will either approve the Work Cost Estimate, or disapprove specific items,
and submit to Landlord revisions to the Final Plans in the form of a Change Order. Submission and
approval of the Work Cost Estimate will proceed in accordance with the work schedule provided by
Landlord. Upon Tenant’s approval of the Work Cost Estimate (the “Work Cost Statement”),
Landlord will have the right to purchase materials and to commence the construction of the items
included in the Work Cost Statement. If the total costs reflected in the Work Cost Statement
exceed the Allowance (as such term is defined in Section 9 below), Tenant shall pay such excess to
Landlord in cash or by wire transfer of funds, within ten (10) days after Tenant’s approval of the
Work




-28-









 




Cost Statement. During Landlord’s construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall
endeavor to keep Tenant reasonably informed of the status of construction costs with respect to the
Tenant Improvements.




          (d) No Representations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the
Lease or herein, Landlord’s participation in the preparation of the Preliminary Plans, the Final
Plans, the cost estimates for the Tenant Improvements and the construction thereof shall not
constitute any representation or warranty, express or implied, that the Improvements and/or the
Premises, if built in accordance with the Final Plans, will be suitable for Tenant’s intended
purpose. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Improvements and the Premises are intended for
use by Tenant and the specifications and design requirements for the Improvements and the Premises
are not within the special knowledge or experience of Landlord. Landlord’s sole obligation shall
be to arrange the construction of the Improvements in a good and workmanlike manner substantially
in accordance with the requirements of the Final Plans and in compliance with all applicable laws
and building codes; and any additional costs or expense required for the modification thereof to
more adequately meet Tenant’s use, whether during or after Landlord’s construction thereof, shall
be borne entirely by Tenant except as otherwise provided in this Addendum 2. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord agrees to assign to Tenant on a non-exclusive basis the benefit of all
construction and architectural warranties pertaining to the Tenant Improvements to the extent that
they do not relate to structural or other portions of the Building that Landlord is required to
maintain and repair under the Lease.




     6. Change Orders. After the parties approve the Final Plans and a building permit for
the Shell and/or the Tenant Improvements is issued, any further changes to the Final Plans and/or
the base Building Specifications shall require the prior written approval of Tenant and Landlord
(not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that Landlord shall not need the consent or
approval of Tenant for changes to the Final Plans that do not change the Building square footage by
more than one percent (1%) and that do not affect the Tenant Improvements and/or the Premises or
materially alter the quality or character of the Building. If Tenant desires any change in the
Final Plans relative to the Shell or Tenant Improvements which is reasonable and practical (which
shall be conclusively determined by the Architect), such changes may only be requested by the
delivery to Landlord by Tenant of a proposed written “Change Order” specifically setting
forth the requested change. Landlord shall have five (5) business days from the receipt of the
proposed Change Order to provide Tenant with the Architect’s disapproval of the proposed change
stating the reason(s) for such disapproval, or if the Architect approves the proposed change, the
following items: (i) a summary of any increase in the cost caused by such change (the “Change
Order Cost”), (ii) a statement of the number of days of any delay caused by such proposed
change (the “Change Order Delay”), and (iii) a statement of the cost of the Change Order
Delay (the “Change Order Delay Expense”), which Change Order Delay Expense shall be the
product of the number of days of delay multiplied by the estimated daily Base Rent rate. Tenant
shall then have three (3) business days to approve the Change Order Cost, the Change Order Delay
and the Change Order Delay Expense. If Tenant approves these items, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
the Change Order Cost and Change Order Delay Expense within two (2) business days after Tenant’s
approval thereof (except that the portion of the Change Order Cost which reflects the hard
construction costs associated with such Change Order may be paid by Tenant in accordance with the
progress of the work, within ten (10) days of receipt of each periodic invoice from Landlord
therefor), and Landlord shall promptly following receipt of such payment execute the Change Order
and cause the appropriate changes to the Final Plans to be made. If Tenant fails to respond to
Landlord within said three (3) business day period, the Change Order Cost, the Change Order Delay
and the Change Order Delay Expense shall be deemed disapproved by Tenant and Landlord shall have no
further obligation to perform any Work set forth in the proposed Change Order. The Change Order
Cost shall include all costs associated with the Change Order, including, without limitation,
architectural fees, engineering fees and construction costs, as conclusively determined by the
Architect and the Contractor (defined in Section 7), respectively, together with a five and 25/100
percent (5.25%) fee of these costs as reimbursement for the expense of administration and
coordination of such Change Order by Landlord’s Representative. The Change Order Delay shall
include all delays caused by the Change Order, including, without limitation, all design and
construction delays, as conclusively determined by the Architect and the Contractor (defined in
Section 7), respectively.



     7. Contractor. Browning Construction, Inc., an Indiana corporation, a contractor
selected by Landlord and approved by Tenant (“Contractor”), shall be used to construct the
Improvements.



     8. Construction of the Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall enter into a construction
contract with the Contractor on a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord (“Construction
Contract”) for the construction and installation of the Improvements substantially in
accordance with the Final Plans. Such construction contract shall



-29-









 







provide for the Improvements to be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner and in
compliance with all applicable laws and building codes.



     9. Payment for Cost of the Tenant Improvements.



          (a) Allowance. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance for
the work related to the Tenant Improvements described on the Final Plans in the amount of Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (the “Allowance”). The Allowance is to be used
only for the following costs approved by Landlord:




               (i) Payment of the cost of preparing the Preliminary Plans relative to the Tenant Improvements
(including, without limitation, Architect’s costs under the Architect Contract) and the Final
Tenant Improvement Plans, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing and structural drawings and of
all other aspects necessary to complete the Final Tenant Improvement Plans.



               (ii) The payment of plan check, permit and license fees relating to construction of the Tenant
Improvements.



               (iii) Construction of the Tenant Improvements as provided in the Final Tenant Improvement
Plans, including without limitation, the following:



                    (aa) Installation within the Premises of all partitioning, doors, floor coverings, ceilings,
wall coverings and painting and similar items, skylights or additional windows, if any;



                    (bb) All electrical wiring, lighting fixtures, outlets and switches, and other electrical work
necessary for the Premises;



                    (cc) The furnishing and installation of all HVAC units, duct work, terminal boxes, diffusers
and accessories necessary for the heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems within the
Premises;



                    (dd) Any additional improvements to the Premises required for Tenant’s use of the Premises
including, but not limited to, ventilation and air conditioning, or other improvements;



                    (ee) All fire and life safety control systems such as sprinklers, fire alarms, including
piping, wiring and accessories, necessary for the Premises, sprinkler upgrades, if any;



                    (ff) All plumbing, fixtures, pipes and accessories necessary for the Premises;



                    (gg) Testing and inspection costs;



                    (hh) Fees for the Contractor and tenant improvement coordinator including, but not limited to,
fees and costs attributable to general conditions associated with the construction of the Tenant
Improvements; and



               (iv) The payment of interest and reasonable loan fees incurred in connection with the Project
Loan (defined in Section 11).



          In no event will the Allowance be used to pay for Tenant’s moving expenses or for furniture,
artifacts, equipment, telephone systems or any other item of personal property which is not affixed
to the Premises.




          Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Landlord has, in good faith, estimated that the Allowance
will be sufficient to construct approximately 5,000 square feet of office space customary for
warehouse facilities located in the central Indiana industrial market using Landlord’s standard
build-out specifications, but that the




-30-









 




ultimate cost of the Tenant Improvements will depend on the Final Tenant Improvement Plans to
be completed after the date hereof and Tenant Improvement finishes and features to be selected
after the date hereof and Landlord makes no guaranty or warranty that such estimate will be
accurate.




          (b) Costs in Excess of Allowance. The cost of each item referenced in Section 9(a)
above shall be charged against the Allowance. If the costs of the Tenant Improvements exceed the
Allowance and Tenant has approved the same, then all costs of the Tenant Improvements which exceed
the Allowance shall be funded by Tenant in cash in advance pursuant to invoices submitted by
Landlord.




          (c) Unused Allowance. Provided Tenant is not in default under the Lease beyond any
applicable cure period, any unused portion of the Allowance upon completion of the Improvements
will be refunded to Tenant in the form of an abatement of Base Rent pursuant to the following
formula: for every $1,000 of unused Allowance up to a maximum of $250,000, Tenant shall receive a
rent abatement to Base Rent of $6.66 per month. The final adjusted Monthly Base Rent for the
initial term of the Lease will be set forth in the Commencement Date Memorandum.




          (d) Cooperation. Landlord shall provide to Tenant, or provide directly to any
third-party governmental, or quasi-governmental, agency that provides, or is solicited to provide,
economic or financial assistance to Tenant, all reasonable information and documentation reasonably
requested by Tenant or such governmental agency with respect to evaluating, reviewing or
determining the existence and terms of the Lease, and the scope and nature of the Tenant
Improvements constructed, or to be constructed, within the Premises, including but not limited to
plans and budgets for such Tenant Improvements, and receipts and invoices for all materials and
labor provided, or to be provided, in the construction of such Tenant Improvements.




     10. Payment for Cost of the Shell. Landlord shall pay the cost of designing and
constructing the Shell as provided in the Final Shell Plans.



     11. Financing of Construction of Tenant Improvements. Landlord may elect to finance
the construction of the Improvements and/or other portions of the Project with the proceeds of a
loan (“Project Loan”) from a third party lender (“Lender”) at the then prevailing
market rate and market terms for similar projects. The documents securing or given in connection
with the Project Loan, if any, are herein collectively called “Loan Documents.” Any
Project Loan may be secured by the lien of a mortgage encumbering the Premises and the Tenant
Improvements. Tenant agrees to execute and/or provide all documents reasonably required by any
Lender in connection with any Project Loan, including, without limitation, estoppel certificates,
subordination agreements (subject to a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement), consents
to the assignment of this Agreement, written confirmation of the satisfaction of closing
conditions, and evidence of the due execution, validity and enforceability of this Agreement. The
costs of any Project Loan shall be included within the cost of the Allowance for purposes of the
provisions of this Addendum 2.



     12. Substantial Completion. Landlord shall proceed with and complete the construction
of the Improvements in accordance with the terms of this Addendum 2. As soon as such improvements
have been Substantially Completed, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the date that the
Improvements were Substantially Completed. The Improvements shall be deemed to be “Substantially
Complete” on the earliest of the date on which: (1) Landlord files or causes to be filed with the
City in which the Premises are located (if required) and delivers to Tenant an Architect
Certificate of substantial completion, or similar written notice that the Improvements are
substantially complete, and Landlord has completed all work under the Lease necessary so that the
Premises may be lawfully occupied by Tenant, (2) Tenant commences business operations in the
Premises, or (3) a certificate of occupancy (or a reasonably substantial equivalent such as a
signoff from a building inspector or a temporary certificate of occupancy) is issued for the
Premises (or is ready to be issued other than for items installed or to be installed by Tenant
under the Lease) and the Premises may be lawfully occupied by Tenant for the Permitted Uses. In
the event Tenant Delays cause the date of Substantial Completion of the Improvements to be delayed,
the date of Substantial Completion shall be deemed to be the date that, in the opinion of the
Architect, Substantial Completion would have occurred if such Tenant Delays had not taken place,
and such delays shall not cause a deferral of the Commencement Date beyond what it otherwise would
have been.



-31-









 





     Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, it is understood and agreed to
that, as reflected in the preliminary construction schedule provided by Landlord to Tenant and
attached hereto as Exhibit A, it is likely that certain landscaping and irrigation work, and
exterior painting will not be a condition for the determination of Substantial Completion.
Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that (i) any uncompleted landscaping, irrigation work,
or painting will not prohibit Tenant, under applicable law, from taking possession of the
Substantially Completed Premises, and (ii) Landlord will complete all landscaping and irrigation
work in accordance with the terms of this Addendum 2 in no event later than May 1, 2009 subject to
be extended as a result of Force Majeure Delays and Tenant Delays.



     13. Tenant Delays; Force Majeure Delays. As used herein, “Tenant Delays”
means any delay in the completion of the Improvements resulting from any or all of the following:
(1) Tenant’s failure to timely perform any of its obligations pursuant to this Addendum 2
(including Tenants failure to respond to Landlord’s written request for information or approval
within two (2) business days), on or before the due date therefor, any action item which is
Tenant’s responsibility pursuant to this Addendum 2, including Tenant’s failure to grant approvals
and/or make payments within the time frames described herein; (2) Tenant’s requested material
modifications to the Final Plans or any Tenant-initiated Change Orders; (3) Tenant’s request for
materials, finishes, or installations which are not readily available in the marketplace after
reasonable efforts by Contractor to locate and obtain the same, (4) any delay in any way whatsoever
arising from Tenant’s right to conduct “Inspections” under Section 14 below, (5) Change Order
Delays, or (6) any other act or failure to act by Tenant, which actually causes the completion of
the Improvements to be delayed, Tenant’s Representative, Tenant’s Architect, Tenant’s employees,
agents, independent contractors, consultants and/or any other person performing or required to
perform services on behalf of Tenant, including interference with Landlord, or its contractors,
during Tenant’s entry under Section 2.3 of the Lease. “Force Majeure Delays” as used
herein means delays resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord or the
Contractor, including, without limitation, any delay caused by any action, inaction, order, ruling,
moratorium, regulation, statute, condition or other decision of any private party or governmental
agency having jurisdiction over any portion of the project, over the construction of the
Improvements or over any uses thereof, or by delays in inspections or in issuing approvals by
private parties or permits by governmental agencies, or by fire, flood, inclement weather, strikes,
lockouts or other labor or industrial disturbance (whether or not on the part of agents or
employees of either party hereto engaged in the construction of the Tenant Improvements), civil
disturbance, order of any government, court or regulatory body claiming jurisdiction or otherwise,
act of public enemy, war, riot, sabotage, blockage, embargo, failure or inability to secure
materials, supplies or labor through ordinary sources by reason of shortages or priority, discovery
of hazardous or toxic materials, earthquake, or other natural disaster, delays caused by any
dispute resolution process, or any cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control (excluding
financial inability) of the party whose performance is required, or any of its contractors or other
representatives, whether or not similar to any of the causes hereinabove stated. If requested by
Tenant in writing at the time that Tenant requests any modification to the Preliminary Plans or any
Tenant-initiated Change Orders, Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice if, in Landlord’s
reasonable determination, Landlord expects that such matters will result in a Tenant Delay;
provided, however, such notice or failure to deliver the same shall not be binding upon Landlord if
Landlord’s determination is incorrect.



     14. Tenant’s Inspection Rights. Landlord shall schedule and attend monthly progress
meetings, walk-throughs and any other meetings with the Architect, the Contractor and Tenant to
discuss the progress of the construction of the Improvements (“Meetings”). Landlord shall
give Tenant at least forty-eight (48) hours prior notice (written or telephonic) of all such
Meetings. Tenant shall designate in writing the person or persons appointed by Tenant to attend
the Meetings and such designated party shall be entitled to be present at and to participate in the
discussions during all Meetings; but Landlord may conduct the Meetings even if Tenant’s appointees
are not present provided the above-referenced notice was given. In addition to the foregoing and
to Tenant’s early entry rights as provided in Section 2.3 of the Lease, Tenant or its agents shall
have the right at any and all reasonable times to conduct inspections, tests, surveys and reports
of work in progress (“Inspections”) for the purpose of reviewing whether the Improvements
are being constructed in accordance with the Final Plans, as amended by any approved Change Orders
or other agreed upon changes. Tenant agrees to protect, hold harmless and indemnify Landlord from
all claims, demands, costs and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from
Tenant’s or Tenant’s agents entry onto the Premises for the purpose of conducting Inspections.



     15. Walk-Through and Punch List. Upon Substantial Completion of the Improvements,
Tenant, Landlord, and the Architect shall jointly conduct a walk-through of the Improvements and
shall jointly prepare a



-32-









 




punch list (“Punch List”) of items needing additional work (“Punch List
Items”); provided, however, the Punch List shall be limited to items which are required by the
Construction Contract, the Final Plans, Change Orders and any other changes agreed to by the
parties. Landlord shall repair or correct such punch-list items no later than thirty (30) days
after the date of such walk-through (unless the nature of such repair or correction is such that
more than thirty (30) days are required for completion, in which case, Landlord shall commence such
repair or correction within such thirty—day period and diligently prosecute the same to
completion).




     16. Miscellaneous Construction Covenants.



          (a) Coordination with Lease. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as (i)
constituting Tenant as Landlord’s agent for any purpose whatsoever, or (ii) a waiver by Landlord or
Tenant of any of the terms or provisions of the Lease. Any default by either party with respect to
any portion of this Addendum 2, shall be deemed a breach of the Lease for which Landlord and Tenant
shall have all the rights and remedies as in the case of a breach of the Lease by the other party.




          (b) Cooperation. Landlord and Tenant agree to cooperate with one another and to cause
their respective employees, agents and contractors to cooperate with one another to coordinate any
work being performed by Landlord and/or Tenant under this Addendum 2, and their respective
employees, agents and contractors so as to avoid unnecessary interference and delays with the
completion of the Work.




     17. No Representations. Landlord does not warrant that the Building or any component
thereof will be free of latent defects or that it will not require maintenance and/or repair within
any particular period of time, except as expressly provided herein. Tenant acknowledges and agrees
that it shall rely solely on the warranty or guaranty, if any, from Contractor, Architect or other
material and/or service providers relative to the proper design and construction of the
Improvements or any component thereof.



     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Addendum 2 is executed as of the date of the Lease.

option, Tenant may appoint Landlord as its contractor, and in so doing, Tenant shall deposit with
the Landlord a sum of money equal to the entire amount of the estimated construction cost, as is
required for the installation of the Tenant improvements on the Premises. If Tenant deposits with
Landlord monies for construction costs, it is agreed that Landlord will not be placed in a
fiduciary capacity as a trustee, or any other fiduciary title, for the sums of monies in Landlord’s
possession. Tenant agrees to hold Landlord harmless from any and all claims, for workmanship and

Tenant’s leasehold interest therein, Tenant shall obtain the release and/or discharge of said lien,

obtain the release and/or discharge of said lien and Tenant shall indemnify Landlord for the costs
thereof, including reasonable attorney’s fees, together with interest at the Applicable Interest
Rate from the date of demand. Nothing herein shall prohibit Tenant from contesting the validity of
any such asserted claim, provided Tenant has furnished to Landlord a lien release bond freeing the

and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all suits, claims, actions, loss, cost or

warranty claims) arising from the performance of Tenant’s Work. Tenant shall repair or replace
(or, at Landlord’s election, reimburse Landlord for the cost of repairing or replacing) any portion
of the Building or item of Landlord’s equipment or any of Landlord’s real or personal property
damaged, lost or destroyed in the performance of Tenant’s Work.



     8. BUILDING STANDARDS. All work shall conform to Landlord’s established building
standards and specifications. Tenant is required to make these standards part of the construction
documents.



     9. ROOF PENETRATIONS. If improvements penetrate the roof membrane, the penetrations
will be sealed per Landlord/IRC roofing specifications and inspected by IRC to maintain roof
warranty. The cost of inspection and all corrective work shall be borne by Tenant. Tenant shall
use Landlord’s original roofing contractor.

space. Tenant will not be allowed to modify building exterior or mechanical and electrical service
as provided to the building in common with other tenants.

performed, subject to Landlord approval. All costs to produce such schedule shall be borne solely
by Tenant.



     13. CLEAN UP AND DISPOSAL OF CONSTRUCTION DEBRIS. Building trash containers are

of inspection prior to, during and at completion of all construction and/or demolition, (ii) the

SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE

AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT





NOTICE: THIS SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT RESULTS IN YOUR
LEASEHOLD ESTATE BECOMING SUBJECT TO AND OF LOWER PRIORITY THAN THE LIEN OF SOME OTHER OR
LATER SECURITY INSTRUMENT.



     This Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered
into as of the ___ day of                     , 200___ by and among LACROSSE FOOTWEAR, INC., a
                                         corporation (“Tenant”),                            
             , a                                         
(“Borrower”) and                                          (“Bank”).



Factual Background




     A. Borrower owns certain real property in the County of Mutnomah, State of Oregon, more
particularly described in the attached Schedule 1 term “Property” herein means that real property
together with all improvements (the “Improvements”) located on it.



     B. Bank has made or agreed to make a loan to Borrower in the principal amount of
                                         and ___/100 Dollars ($                              
          ) (the “Loan”) as provided in
a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”). The Loan is or will be evidenced by a promissory
note (the “Note”) which is or will be secured by a deed of trust encumbering the Property
(the “Deed of Trust”) with an assignment of rents. The Loan Agreement, the Note, the Deed
of Trust, this Agreement and all other documents and instruments identified in the Loan Agreement
as “Loan Documents” shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Loan
Documents”.



     C. Tenant and Borrower (as landlord) entered into a lease dated ___, 200___ (the
“Lease”) under which Borrower leased to Tenant a portion of the Improvements located within
the Property and more particularly described in the Lease (the “Premises”).



     D. It is a requirement of the Loan to Borrower that Tenant agree, among other things, to
subordinate Tenant’s rights under the Lease to the lien of the Loan Documents and to attorn to Bank
on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Tenant is willing to agree to such subordination
and attornment and other conditions, provided that Bank agrees to a nondisturbance provision, all
as set forth more fully below.

A G
R E E M E N T :




     Therefore, the parties agree as follows:



     1. Subordination. The Loan Documents and all supplements, amendments, modifications,
renewals, replacements and extensions of and to them shall unconditionally be and remain at all
times a lien on the Property prior and superior to the Lease, to the leasehold estate created by
it, and to all rights and privileges of Tenant under it. The Lease and leasehold estate, together
with all rights and privileges of Tenant under that Lease, are hereby made subordinate to the lien
of the Loan Documents in favor of Bank. Tenant consents to Borrower and Bank entering into the
Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents. Tenant further declares, agrees and acknowledges that
in making disbursements under the Loan Documents Bank has no obligation or duty to, nor has Bank
represented that it will, see to the application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom
they are disbursed by Bank, and any application or use of such proceeds for purposes other than
those provided for in the Loan Documents shall not defeat the subordination made in this Agreement,
in whole or in part.



     2. Definitions of “Transfer of the Property” and “Purchaser”. As used herein, the
term “Transfer of the Property” means any transfer of Borrower’s interest in the Property by
foreclosure, trustee’s sale or other action or proceeding for the enforcement of the Deed of Trust
or by deed in lieu thereof. The term “Purchaser”, as used herein, means any transferee, including
Bank, of the interest of Borrower as a result of any such Transfer of the Property and also
includes any and all successors and assigns, including Bank, of such transferee.



     3. Nondisturbance. Bank agrees that the enforcement of the Deed of Trust shall not
terminate the Lease or disturb Tenant in the possession and use of the Premises unless at the time
of foreclosure Tenant is in default under the Lease or this Agreement past applicable grace
periods, and Bank so notifies Tenant in writing at or prior to the time of the foreclosure sale
that the Lease will be terminated by foreclosure because of such default. The nondisturbance
herein granted is subject to Section 5 below. This nondisturbance applies to any option to extend
or renew the Lease term which is set forth in the Lease as of the date of this Agreement.



     4. Attornment. Subject to Section 3 above, if any Transfer of the Property should
occur, Tenant shall and hereby does attorn to Purchaser, including Bank if it should be the
Purchaser, as the landlord under the Lease, and Tenant shall be bound to Purchaser under all of the
terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the Lease term and any extensions
or renewals of it which may then or later be in effect under any validly exercised extension or
renewal option contained in the Lease, all with the same force and effect as if Purchaser had been
the original landlord under the Lease. This attornment shall be effective and self-operative
without the execution of any further instruments upon Purchaser’s succeeding to the interest of the
landlord under the Lease.



     5. Subordination of Options and Rights of First Refusal. The Loan Documents and all
supplements, amendments, modifications, renewals, replacements and extensions of and to them shall
unconditionally be and remain at all times a lien on the Property prior and superior to any
existing or future right of Tenant, whether arising out of the Lease or otherwise, to exercise any
option or right of first offer to:



          (a) purchase the Premises or the Property or any interest or portion in or of either of
them; or




          (b) expand into other space in the Improvements except pursuant to Sections 21 and 22
of the Lease.




     Tenant specifically agrees and acknowledges that upon any Transfer of the Property, any such
purchase option, whether now existing or in the future arising, shall terminate and be inapplicable
to the Property notwithstanding the nondisturbance granted to Tenant in Section 3 above. If any
option or right of first offer to purchase is exercised prior to a Transfer of the Property, any
title so acquired to all or any part of the Property shall be subject to the lien of the Loan
Documents, which lien shall in no way be impaired by the exercise of such option or right of first
offer. Bank specifically reserves all of its rights to enforce any accelerating transfer, due on
sale, due on encumbrance or similar provision in the Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document.

     6. Notices of Default; Material Notices; Bank’s Rights to Cure Default. Tenant shall
send a copy of any notice of default or similar statement with respect to the Lease to Bank at the
same time such notice or statement is sent to Borrower. In the event of any act or omission by
Borrower which would give Tenant the right to terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total
eviction, Tenant shall not exercise any such right or make any such claim until it has given Bank
written notice of such act or omission and has given Bank either thirty (30) days to cure the
default. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall be construed as a promise or undertaking by
Bank to cure any default of Borrower.



     7. Limitation on Bank’s Performance. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or
construed to be an agreement by Bank to perform any covenant of Borrower as landlord under the
Lease. Tenant agrees that if Bank becomes Purchaser then, upon subsequent transfer of the Property
by Bank to a new owner, Bank shall have no further liability under the Lease after said transfer.



     8. Limitation on Liability. No Purchaser who acquires title to the Property shall
have any obligation or liability beyond its interest in the Property.



     9. Tenant’s Covenants. Tenant agrees that during the term of the Lease, without
Bank’s prior written consent, Tenant shall not:



          (a) pay any rent or additional rent more than one month in advance to any landlord
including Borrower; or




          (b) cancel, terminate or surrender the Lease, except at the normal expiration of the
Lease term or as provided in Section 6 above.




     10. Bank Not Obligated. Bank, if it becomes the Purchaser or if it takes possession
under the Deed of Trust, and any other Purchaser shall not (a) be liable for any damages or other
relief attributable to any act or omission of any prior Landlord under the Lease including
Borrower; or (b) be subject to any offset or defense not specifically provided for in the Lease
which Tenant may have against any prior landlord under the Lease; or (c) be bound by any prepayment
by Tenant of more than one month’s installment of rent; or (d) be obligated for any security
deposit not actually delivered to Purchaser; or (e) be bound by any modification or amendment of or
to the Lease unless the amendment or modification shall have been approved in writing by Bank.



     11. Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate.




     (a) True and Complete Lease. Tenant represents and warrants to Bank that
Schedule 2 accurately identifies the Lease and all amendments, supplements, side letters and
other agreements and memoranda pertaining to the Lease, the leasehold and/or the Premises.




     (b) Tenant’s Option Rights. Tenant has no right or option of any nature
whatsoever, whether arising out of the Lease or otherwise, to purchase the Premises or the
Property, or any interest or portion in or of either of them, to expand into other space in
the Improvements or to extend or renew the term of the Lease, except as described in the
attached Schedule 3.




     (c) No Default. As of the date of this Agreement, Tenant represents and
warrants that to the best of Tenant’s knowledge there exist no events of default or events
that with notice or the passage of time or both would be events of default under the Lease
on either the Tenant’s part or the Borrower’s, nor is there any right of offset against any
of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, except as described in the attached Schedule 4.
Tenant represents and warrants that the Lease is in full force and effect as of the date of
this Agreement.




     (d) Hazardous Substances. Tenant represents and warrants that it is in
compliance with Section 12 of the Lease.



     12. Integration; Etc. This Agreement integrates all of the terms and conditions of
the parties’ agreement regarding the subordination of the Lease to the Loan Documents, attornment,
nondisturbance and the



EXHIBIT H






-3-









 




other matters contained herein. This Agreement supersedes and cancels all oral negotiations
and prior and other writings with respect to (a) such subordination (only to such extent, however,
as would affect the priority between the Lease and the Loan Documents), including any provisions of
the Lease which provide for the subordination of the Lease to a deed of trust or to a mortgage and
(b) such attornment, non-disturbance and other matters contained herein. If there is any conflict
between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and those of any other agreement or
instrument, including the Lease, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall
prevail. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement signed by the
parties or their respective successors in interest. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, each of which is an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same
instrument.




     13. Notices. All notices given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
given by personal delivery, overnight receipted courier or by registered or certified United States
mail, postage prepaid, sent to the party at its address appearing below. Notices shall be
effective upon receipt (or on the date when proper delivery is refused). Addresses for notices may
be changed by any party by notice to all other parties in accordance with this Section. Service of
any notice on any one Borrower shall be effective service on Borrower for all purposes.

     14. Attorneys’ Fees. If any lawsuit, judicial reference or arbitration is commenced
which arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
from each other party such sums as the court, referee or arbitrator may adjudge to be reasonable
attorneys’ fees, including the costs for any legal services by in-house counsel, in addition to
costs and expenses otherwise allowed by law.



     15. Miscellaneous Provisions. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement is governed by
the laws of the State of California without regard to the choice of law rules of that State. This
Agreement satisfies any condition or requirement in the Lease relating to the granting of a
nondisturbance agreement by Bank. As used herein, the word “include(s)” means “include(s) without
limitation,” and the word “including” means “including but not limited to.” Bank, at its sole
discretion, may but shall not be obligated to record this Agreement.



     16. Arbitration; Judicial Reference. Bank and Borrower have agreed in the Loan
Agreement that any dispute shall be resolved by arbitration or judicial reference. Therefore any
controversy or claim between or among the parties hereto (including Tenant) which arises out of or
relates to this Agreement, including any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall also
be determined by arbitration or judicial reference as set forth below.




     (a) Judicial Reference. In any judicial action between or among the parties,
including any action or cause of action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
based on or arising from an alleged tort, all decisions of fact and law shall at the request
of any party be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 638 et seq. The parties shall designate to the court a referee or

referees selected under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”) in the same manner as arbitrators are selected in AAA-sponsored proceedings.
The presiding referee of the panel, or the referee if there is a single referee, shall be
an active attorney or retired judge. Judgment upon the award rendered by such referee or
referees shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in accordance
with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.




     (b) Mandatory Arbitration. After the Bank’s Deed of Trust has been released,
fully reconveyed or extinguished, any controversy or claim between or among the parties,
including those arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any claim based on or
arising from an alleged tort, shall at the request of any party be determined by
arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United States
Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this
Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the AAA. The arbitrator(s) shall give effect
to statutes of limitation in determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an
issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). Judgment upon the arbitration
award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of
an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not
constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the
controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial
relief.




     (c) Real Property Collateral. Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection
(b), no controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration without the consent of all
parties if, at the time of the proposed submission, any obligation of Borrower to Bank is
secured by real property collateral. If all parties do not consent to submission of such a
controversy or claim to arbitration, the controversy or claim shall be determined by
judicial reference as provided in Subsection (a).




     (d) Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. No provision of this
Section shall limit the right of any party to this Agreement to exercise self-help remedies
such as setoff, foreclosure against or sale of any real or personal property collateral or
security, or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent
jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding.
The exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of a party to resort to arbitration or
reference. At Bank’s option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be
accomplished either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of trust or mortgage or by
judicial foreclosure.




     (e) The parties agree that this arbitration and judicial reference provision shall not
prohibit or limit summary proceedings to obtain possession of real property pursuant to
Chapter 4 of the California Code of Civil Procedure (Section 1159 et seq.)
as amended from time to time, or any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in
effect.



     NOTICE: THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A PROVISION WHICH ALLOWS THE PERSON OBLIGATED ON YOUR LEASE TO
OBTAIN A LOAN, A PORTION OF WHICH MAY BE EXPENDED FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN IMPROVEMENT OF THE
PROPERTY.
