			PREMISES AND TERM
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.01.   Leased Premises.  Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, on the terms and provisions and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth in this Lease, Suite 500, 5801 Research Park Blvd., Madison, Wisconsin 53719, as shown on the attached floor plan (Exhibit A), consisting of approximately 10,137 square feet on the 5th floor of the Building, (the “Leased Premises”).  The building in which the Leased Premises are located (the "Building") contains approximately 113,500 square feet and is located on the property described in Exhibit B.  The Building and the property on which it is located are referred to herein as "Landlord's Property".  Tenant shall also have a non-exclusive right, subject to the provisions hereof, to use all appurtenances to the Leased Premises designated by Landlord from time to time for use in common by other tenants of the Building in accordance with the provisions of Article V, subject to the rights of Landlord under Section 5.01.  Landlord has determined the rentable area of the Building and the Leased Premises substantially in accordance with ANSI/BOMA 1996 “Standard Method for Measuring Floor area in Office Buildings” (the “BOMA Standards”). Landlord agrees to cap the BOMA load factor at 12%. If at any time Landlord determines, substantially in accordance with BOMA Standards, that the rentable area of the Leased Premises or Building differs from the rentable area specified in this section, Landlord and Tenant will amend this Lease accordingly; provided, however, that any such amendment will operate prospectively only. Landlord and Tenant will not make any retroactive adjustments to Base Rent or any other payments on account of any difference between the rentable area of the Leased Premises or Building specified in this section and the rentable area of the Leased Premises or Building as may be determined after the date of this Lease.

			If any of the aforementioned services are not provided to Tenant as a result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, for a period of more than three (3) consecutive business days following Landlord’s receipt of written notice from Tenant of the absence of such service(s), and if a materially adverse effect on Tenant’s ability to conduct its business in the Leased Premises results from the absence of such service(s), then all rentals under this Lease shall abate during the period such service(s) is not provided and shall continue until such date and time as such service(s) is re-established.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 4.03.  Taxes on Leasehold.

			Section 4.04.  Assignment or Subletting.    
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)Tenant agrees not to sell, assign, mortgage, pledge or in any manner transfer this Lease or any estate or interest hereunder, and not to sublet the Leased Premises or any part or parts thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall be permitted to assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Leased Premises, without the consent of Landlord, (i) to an entity into which Tenant may merge, which Tenant may acquire, or which Tenant may consolidate with, (ii) to any parent or subsidiary of Tenant, or (iii) to a purchaser of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or a controlling interest in the outstanding voting stock of Tenant.

Landlord may withhold its consent to a change in Permitted Uses in its sole and absolute discretion.  With respect to any portion of the Leased Premises sublet, in the event that the total rent and any other consideration received under any sublease by Tenant is greater than the Base Rent required to be paid, from time to time, under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord 100% (less reasonable re-tenanting costs and real estate commissions) of such excess as may be received from any such subtenant and such amount shall be deemed Additional Rent under this Lease.   Consent by Landlord to one assignment of this Lease or to one subletting of the Leased Premises shall not be a waiver of Landlord's rights hereunder as to a subsequent assignment or subletting.  No assignment by Tenant of this Lease shall relieve Tenant of its obligations under this Lease.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)Landlord's rights to assign this Lease are and shall remain unqualified.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 4.05.  Rules and Regulations.  Landlord reserves the right from time to time to adopt and promulgate reasonable rules and regulations applicable to Leased Premises, and Landlord's Property.  Tenant acknowledges that the Building is a smoke free environment.  Smoking is permitted only in outside areas, if any, designated by Landlord from time to time.  Tenant agrees to comply with and observe such rules and regulations, and to secure compliance by its employees, agents, customers and invitees.  Tenant's failure to keep and observe said rules and regulations shall constitute a breach of the terms of this Lease in the same manner as if such rules and regulations were contained herein as covenants.   Notice of rules and regulations adopted by Landlord, and amendments and supplements thereto, if any, shall be given to Tenant, and Tenant agrees thereupon to comply with and observe all such rules and regulations and amendments thereto and supplements thereof.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 4.06.  Surrender.  On the last day of the Term of this Lease, or upon the sooner termination thereof, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly surrender the Leased Premises and all improvements thereon in good order, condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear, casualty

			and damage caused by Landlord or Landlord's agents, employees or contractors excepted.  Alterations, additions, improvements and fixtures (other than trade fixtures) which may be made or installed by Tenant upon the Leased Premises shall, upon Landlord's request, be removed, provided, however, Tenant shall not be required to remove the demising wall, if any, constructed pursuant to Section 2.01.  Any such items that Landlord has not requested Tenant remove shall remain the property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Leased Premises as a part thereof, without disturbance, molestation or injury at the termination of the Term of this Lease, whether by the lapse of time or otherwise, all without compensation or credit to Tenant.    At any time prior to surrender of the Leased Premises the Tenant may remove all trade fixtures, personal property, equipment, wiring, cabling and signs paid for and installed by Tenant.  Any property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned and shall become the property of Landlord; provided, that the Landlord shall have the option to effect said removals and Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, the cost thereof, with interest at the rate of ten (10%) percent per annum from the date of such demand by Landlord, or the prime interest rate established by the U.S. Bank, N.A., Madison, Wisconsin, or its successors or assigns, whichever is higher.
		

		
			 
		

		
			If, prior to surrender of the Leased Premises or within twenty (20) days thereafter, Landlord so directs by written notice to Tenant, Tenant shall repair any damage occasioned by such removals.  If Tenant fails to repair such damage within ten (10) days following the date of Landlord's notice, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, the cost thereof with interest from the date of completion of such repairs by Landlord, at the rate specified in the immediately preceding paragraph of this Lease.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The delivery to Landlord at the place then fixed for the payment of rent of the keys and access cards to the Leased Premises shall constitute surrender of the Leased Premises by Tenant and acceptance of the keys by Landlord shall constitute acceptance by Landlord of such surrender.  Such acceptance by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of any rights to recover damages under the terms of this Lease.  This method of surrender shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to all other methods of surrender.

			Section 7.01.  Destruction of Leased Premises.  If the Building is damaged or partially destroyed by fire or other casualty to the extent of less than one-quarter (1/4) of the then cost of replacement thereof above foundation, the same shall be repaired as quickly as is practicable, by Landlord, except that the obligation of Landlord to rebuild shall be limited to repairing or rebuilding of Landlord's Improvements.  If the Building is so destroyed or damaged to the extent of one-quarter (1/4) or more of the then replacement cost thereof, then Landlord may elect not to repair or rebuild by giving notice in writing terminating this Lease, in which event this Lease shall be terminated as of the date of such notice.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 7.02.  Rebuilding by Landlord.  If Landlord shall undertake to restore or repair the Building, it shall initiate and pursue the necessary work with all reasonable dispatch, in a manner consistent with sound construction methods.  If Landlord is unable to restore or repair the Leased Premises within five (5) months following the date of damage, Tenant may cancel this Lease by written notice within fifteen (15) days following the expiration of such five (5) month period, or within fifteen (15) days following notice by Landlord that restoration or repair of the Leased Premises will not be completed within said five (5) month period, whichever occurs first.

			Section 8.04.  Tenant's Damages.  Although all damages in the event of any condemnation are to belong to the Landlord whether such damages are awarded as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or to the fee of the Leased Premises, Tenant shall have the right to claim and recover from the condemning authority, but not from Landlord, such compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant in Tenant's own right on account of any and all damage to Tenant's business by reason of the condemnation, and for or on account of any cost or loss to which Tenant might be put in removing Tenant's property.

			(a)any installment of Base Rent or any other sums required to be paid by Tenant hereunder, or any part thereof shall at any time be in arrears and unpaid for ten (10) days after written notice that the same is past due, or 
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)there is any default or breach on the part of the Tenant in the observance or performance of any of the other covenants, agreements or conditions of this Lease on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and said default or breach shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days from notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant, unless such default cannot reasonably be cured within said thirty (30) days, and in such case, Tenant shall have commenced to cure said default within said thirty (30) days and thereafter continue diligently to pursue to completion the curing of same, or 
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)a writ of execution or attachment is levied on or against the property of Tenant, or
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or files a voluntary petition under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law, or an involuntary petition alleging an act of bankruptcy or insolvency is filed against Tenant under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law and is not dismissed within thirty (30) days, or a petition is filed by or against Tenant under the reorganization provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or under the provision of law of like import, or a petition is filed by Tenant under the arrangement provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or similar law, or a receiver of Tenant, or of or for the property of Tenant shall be appointed, or Tenant admits it is insolvent or is not able to pay its debts as they mature.

			Section 9.02.  Landlord's Remedies.   Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to all other remedies available under this Lease or at law, terminate this Lease or Tenant's rights to use and occupy the Leased Premises.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord shall be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all damages which may accrue hereunder, at law or in equity as a result of any default or breach by Tenant of any of the terms of this Lease.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 9.03.  Re-Entry by Landlord.   Upon termination of the Lease or termination of Tenant's right to use and occupy the Leased Premises as aforesaid, Landlord may re-enter the Leased Premises.  Notwithstanding such re-entry or termination, the liability of Tenant for rent herein provided for shall not be extinguished for the balance of the Term remaining.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 9.04.  Right to Relet.  Should Landlord elect to re-enter, as herein provided, or should it take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, it may either terminate this Lease or it may from time to time without terminating this Lease, make such alterations and repairs as may be necessary in order to relet the Leased Premises, and relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term of this Lease) and at such rental or rentals upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in it sole discretion may deem advisable upon each such reletting.  All rentals received by the Landlord from such reletting shall be applied, first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs of such alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder.  If such rentals received from such reletting during the month be less than that to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord.  Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly.  No such re-entry or taking possession of said premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.  Should Landlord at any time terminate this Lease for any breach, in addition to any other remedies it may have, it may recover from Tenant all damages it may incur by reason of such breach, including the cost of recovering the Leased Premises, reasonable attorney's fees, and including the worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of the amount of rent and charges equivalent to the rent reserved in this Lease for the remainder of the stated term over the then reasonable rental value of the Leased Premises for the remainder of the stated term, all of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable from Tenant to Landlord.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 9.05.  Landlord May Remedy Defaults.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and in lieu of Landlord's terminating this Lease as herein provided, Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter, after having given the Tenant the requisite notice to correct the same and that time for such correction having elapsed, cure such breach for the account and at the expense of the Tenant.  If Landlord at any time, by reason of such breach, is compelled to pay, or elects to pay, any sum of money or do any act which will require the payment of any sum of money, or incurs any expense, including reasonable attorney's fees, in

			instituting or prosecuting any action or proceeding to enforce its rights hereunder, the sum or sums so paid or incurred by it, shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be due from Tenant to Landlord on the first day of the month following the payment of such respective sums.  This option given to the Landlord is intended for its protection and its existence shall not release the Tenant from the obligation to perform the terms and covenants herein provided to be performed by the Tenant or deprive Landlord of any legal rights which it may have by reason of any default of Tenant.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 9.06.  Landlord's Remedies:  Liquidated Damages.  In the event that any time, whether before or after the commencement of the Term hereof, a bankruptcy petition shall be filed by Tenant or against Tenant and Tenant shall thereafter be adjudicated a bankrupt, or such petition shall be approved by the court, in any court or pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of any State, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, for reorganization under Chapter XI or XIII of the Bankruptcy Act or under any other provisions of the Bankruptcy Act, or under the provisions of any law of like impact, for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of Tenant or for the property of Tenant, or if Tenant shall make an assignment of Tenant's property for the benefit of its creditors, or if proceedings are instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction for the reorganization, liquidation or involuntary dissolution of Tenant, then immediately upon the happening of any such event, and without any entry or other act by Landlord, this Lease and the term and estate hereby granted (whether or not the Term shall therefore have commenced) shall expire, terminate and come to an end in the same manner and with the same force and effect as if the date of such occurrence were the date hereinbefore fixed for the expiration of the Term hereof.  In the event of the termination of the Term hereof by the happening of any such event, Landlord shall forthwith upon such termination, and any other provisions of this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, become entitled to recover as and for liquidated damages caused by such breach of the provisions of this Lease an amount equal to the excess of the then cash value of the rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the demised Term over the cash rental value of the Leased Premises for such unexpired portion of the Term hereby demised, unless the statute which governs or shall govern the proceeding in which such damages are to be provided limits or precludes the recovery of such liquidated damages, in which case Landlord shall be entitled to recover as and for liquidated damages an amount equal to that allowed by or under such statute.  The provision of this paragraph shall be without prejudice to Landlord's right to prove in full damages for rent accrued prior to the termination of this Lease but not paid.  This provision of this Lease shall be without prejudice of any rights given Landlord by any pertinent statute to prove any amounts allowed thereby.  In making such computation, the then cash rental value of the Leased Premises shall be deemed prima facie to be the rent realized upon any reletting, if such reletting can be accomplished by Landlord within a reasonable time after such a termination of this Lease.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 9.07.  Rights Cumulative.  All rights and remedies of Landlord and Tenant herein enumerated shall be cumulative and none shall exclude any other right or remedy allowed by Law, and said rights and remedies may be exercised and enforced concurrently and whenever and as often as occasion therefor arises.

			Section 10.13.  General.  Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed by the parties hereto or by any third party to create the relationship of principal and agent or of partnership or of joint venture or of any association between Landlord and Tenant, it being expressly understood and agreed that neither the method of computation of rent nor any other provisions contained in this Lease nor any acts of the parties hereto shall be deemed to create any relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than the relationship of landlord and tenant.  No waiver of any default of Tenant or Landlord hereunder shall be implied from any omission by Landlord or Tenant to take any action on account of such default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect any default other than the default specified in the express waiver and that only for the time and to the extent therein stated.  One or more waivers of any covenant, term or condition of this Lease by Landlord or Tenant shall not be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same covenant, term or conditions.  The consent or approval by Landlord to or of any act by Tenant requiring the Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar act by Tenant.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect or impair any other provision.  The plural sense where there is more than one tenant and to either corporations, associations, partnership or individuals, male or females, shall in all instances be assumed as though in each case fully expressed.  The laws of the State of Wisconsin shall govern the validity, performance and enforcement of this Lease.  The submission of this Lease for examination does not constitute a reservation of or option for the Leased Premises and this Lease becomes effective as a Lease only upon execution and delivery thereof by Landlord and by Tenant.  The headings contained herein are for convenience only and do not define, limit or construe the contents of the provisions hereof.  All negotiations, representations and understandings between the parties are incorporated herein and may be modified or altered only by agreement in writing between the parties.
