                         Preliminary Statement of Facts

         Tenant desires to sublease all of the Demised Premises to Subtenant

incorporated herein by reference. Subtenant will not enter into the sublease
transaction without the execution and delivery of this instrument by the
Landlord.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and in consideration
of the fact that Subtenant is relying upon the warranties, representations and
covenants made by Landlord in favor of Subtenant hereunder, Landlord hereby
represents, warrants and covenants to Subtenant as follows:

         1. Consent. Landlord consents to the Sublease and to the occupancy of

is attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference. The Master
Lease has not been modified, amended or changed in any respect except as shown
or described Exhibit B. There are no side agreements, outside agreements or
third party agreements otherwise affecting or modifying the obligations of
either of the Landlord or Tenant under the terms and conditions of the Master
Lease, except for the Lender Subordination Agreement.

         3. No Default. No default currently exists (or would exist but for the
giving of notice upon the expiration of any applicable cure or grace period) on
the part of Tenant under the terms and conditions of the Master Lease. All Rent
under the Master Lease has been paid by Tenant to Landlord through June 30,2000.

         4. Notice and Grace/Cure Periods. Notwithstanding any other term or
condition of the Master Lease to the contrary, any written notices or notices of

conditions of the Master Lease shall also be delivered to Tenant at the Demised

                             Eden Prairie, MN 55344
                             Attention: Dave Engel

            Subtenant shall have the same grace period or cure period that

the Master Lease and Landlord hereby agrees to accept any cure of any Master
Lease default from Tenant.

instrument, Landlord's consent to the Sublease shall not release or discharge
Tenant of or from any liability whether past, present or future under the Master
Lease and Tenant shall remain fully liable thereunder. Landlord's consent to the
Sublease shall not be deemed to be a consent or waiver of Landlord's right to
consent to any subsequent or different transaction which constitutes an
assignment or subletting under the terms and conditions of the Master Lease.
